Don't you want to ask for an official?

OK!In the ice and snow outside the Great Wall, what is lacking is an official position!

The next time the old man comes to the door again, his name will be reported directly to the Ministry of Officials Clearing and Selection Department, and their whole family can take up the post to raise horses.

After the farce ended, Jia Qiang returned to the back hall and saw Lin Ruhai talking to Aunt Mei and Daiyu. After he came in, he told the story over and over again.

Daiyu and Aunt Mei made fun of each other, and Lin Ruhai also laughed and said, "Some are really old relatives. If you can be content, you can always deal with it. It's just that they don't even have any fame, and they want to be officials. It's really annoying." It's so annoying. How can I receive such a character. I'm going to trouble Qiang'er..."

In fact, if Lin Ruhai really wanted to have a son, it would be much easier.

He didn't want to come forward and let his parents and children receive him, and it was easy to dismiss those people.

It's a pity that he is the only male in the Lin family, so it's really not easy.

Jia Qiang said with a smile: "In the future, if such people come to visit, I won't see you again. They will all stay here and let me deal with them. It is difficult to make a fortune, but it is easy to become an official."

Daiyu laughed and said, "It's easy to be an official. How can there be so many officials for them?"

Jia Qiang laughed and said, "Why not? Back then, Su Wu's sheep herding place was so big that it could be divided into [-] to [-] counties, and there was plenty to spare. There was a lack of county magistrates, and they brought their own dry food, since they took office!"

"Pooh!"

Daiyu tilted her head, covered her mouth with her embroidered handkerchief, looked at Jia Qiang with starry eyes, and couldn't stop laughing.

Outside the house, the snow is falling, and the north wind is cold.

Inside the house is warm and full of joy.

2Chapter 16 Confused Seeds!

It's night, Rikain.

In the inner hall, there is a large autumn-colored money python mattress on the kang facing the window. On the east and west sides, there are big red money python backrests and azurite money python lead pillows.

Aunt Xue lay down on the kang, sighing.

Baochai's apricot eyes were slightly red, she sat on the edge of the kang, and softly persuaded: "Why should Mom be angry with brother? He has always been confused, and he didn't mean to be angry with you."

Aunt Xue sighed deeply and said, "My son, do you think I am angry with your brother?"

Baochai wondered, "Then what's the matter?"

Aunt Xue's eyes were full of sadness, and she said: "Don't you see that your brother is now in a daze, and is under the evil spirit of Brother Qiang!"

Baochai laughed "puchi" when she heard the words, and said, "Brother Qiang is not a witch, sorcerer, how could my brother fall for his evil?"

Aunt Xue didn't think it was funny at all, and said: "Think about it, if it wasn't for his evil spirits, how could you entrust all of your family business to him? It is the foundation of several generations of the Xue family's hard work. Ah! He gave your brother 7 taels of silver, but the silver was not given by him at all. It was picked out from so many old shopkeepers and old buddies of Fengzi. But your brother didn't expect this, even the whole The family business has been entrusted to the past, and now it is even more obedient, dear girl, our Xue family will soon be changed into Jia's family!"

Baochai frowned lightly, and said, "Mom, don't think too much about the bad. The 20 taels of silver were indeed picked out by Brother Qiang from the old shopkeeper and clerks of Fengzihao. Didn’t they steal all the money? If he hadn’t discovered it in time, our family business wouldn’t be able to sustain it for a few years!”

Aunt Xue sighed and waved her hands when she heard the words: "Come on, let's not talk about this for now. My dear girl, think about it, Brother Qiang was able to do this in Yangzhou Mansion because he relied on the Yanyuan Yamen to have the highest power in Yangzhou. In Beijing, even if he wants to take over Ningguo Duke's Mansion, he won't get any benefits except for an empty name. Now, he has offended the West Mansion to such an extent just relying on the Supreme Emperor's kindness. He was so scolded that he couldn't lift his head, and he didn't even think about it. Can the Supreme Emperor live for 1 years? When the Supreme Emperor is gone, see how the master of Xifu and Lian'er will punish him! Even the old lady hates him It's amazing. If it's just these things..."

When it came to the important point, Aunt Xue forced herself to sit up, and said to Baochai in a low voice: "I heard from your aunt that the palace specially gave him the East Mansion, but it was just to use his name as a good minister of the Supreme Emperor to punish those people. The old minister of the Supreme Emperor. In this way, he is not good at both ends. He wiped out four salt merchants in Yangzhou and the master of the Lin family. Those salt merchants sound like merchants, but which one has no strong roots behind it? Wait for the future After the counterattack, it's hard to say whether he will end well, but even if he wants to die, it's hard to say!"

Baochai's complexion changed when he heard the words, and he felt startled, hesitatingly said: "Mom, it's not like this..."

Aunt Xue shook her head and said: "You are an old lady in the West Mansion, why did they keep letting him go? It is because they have long regarded him as a dead person, tearing up the skin and tearing up the skin. Everyone knows that he just makes trouble. It will implicate the West Mansion. But they are relieved, what about us?"

When Baochai heard this, she was shocked, looked at Aunt Xue and said, "Mom, could it be that you deliberately provoked Brother Qiang today, in order to draw a clear line between you and Brother Qiang?"

Aunt Xue sighed and said, "Half and half... I really want to give him that kiln sister, but neither of them will live long."

"mom……"

What Aunt Xue said was really unpleasant, even in private, Baochai still couldn't bear it, and said: "With the master of the Lin family taking care of Brother Qiang, there may be nothing wrong."

Aunt Xue sneered, and said: "You didn't hear your aunt say that the master of the Lin family is as sick as a tuberculosis ghost, and he doesn't know when he will be sick. This time, Miss Lin annoyed your aunt to the core Now, let alone your aunt, even the old lady of the West Mansion doesn't care. You just wait and see, when Master Lin is gone, Miss Lin will come back to the West Mansion, she will have a lot to offer."

As he spoke, he sighed again, and said, "I just don't know how to persuade your brother to stay away from that broom star..."

Baochai frowned and said, "Mom, I'm afraid it won't be easy. Besides, with Second Uncle here, what are you worried about?"

Aunt Xue gave Baochai an angry look, and said, "I always thought you were smart, but I didn't think you couldn't see through this level... I'm guarding against that second uncle of yours!"

Baochai:"……"

"Good girl, when you go to the Lin Mansion as a guest in the future, you must not talk to Brother Qiang, not even a word. I have been consuming your brother for the past few days, not letting him go out, not allowing him to see Brother Qiang Son. The broom star is also a decent person. He will definitely be aware of our family's attitude towards him, and he will gradually become estranged. Looking for another opportunity, I will get back the Fengzi name, and it will be completely broken. ! Did you remember that?"

"...Oh, I see."

Responding to her mother's words, Baochai turned her head and looked out the window. In the dark night, she couldn't see anything.

She was very uneasy, always feeling that something was wrong, but she couldn't find a reason to refute her mother's words.

Those words were all discussed by Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang.

Both of them are smart people, how many loopholes will there be?

However, Baochai always felt that the thin and lonely young man would not go to the point her mother said...

……

The next morning.

Early in the morning, Jia Qiang received an official letter from the clan mansion to test the seal, asking him to go to the clan mansion to test the seal before noon.

The Clan Mansion is on Chongwenmen Inner Street, next to the Imperial City.

Knowing that he had business to do, although Lin Ruhai who got up late every day was not disturbed, Daiyu and Aunt Mei still notified him.

The two called Jia Qiang into the back house, and they made a fuss.

He wears a purple gold crown on his head, covered with a moon-white Kesi cloud brocade jacket, and an outer cover of stone green Japanese forged fringe jacket, and on his feet are small court boots with black satin and blue bottoms.

Outside is a thick brocade inlaid ermine cloak...

Although Jia Qiang hated Jia Zhen to the bone, Daiyu deliberately avoided red when choosing clothes, after all, she was in the filial age.

After dressing up, Aunt Mei looked at it for a while, then turned her head to look at Daiyu who was staring at Jia Qiang with a smile in her starry eyes, and said, "Isn't she handsome?"

Daiyu had a pretty face, her eyes flicked on Jia Qiang's face and then moved away, she snorted and said, "What's so pretty?"
