Ji Xuan and his wife didn't prepare the children's clothes in advance, and they didn't dislike them either. They took a bath for the two children at night and put on the old but clean clothes. The two little mud monkeys finally looked human.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Ji Xuan and Tong Shao Yunchen took a good look at the two children. They were both sallow and emaciated, and looked malnourished.The older one is better. There are two close relatives who take good care of the child.The younger one was obviously thinner than his peers, but luckily his bones were not bad, he didn't get hurt at all, and he could recover after taking good care of him.

Maybe it's because they often go to and fro in different families, the two don't recognize each other very much, after the relatives who took care of them explained to them, the two children obediently followed Ji Xuan and his wife, not separated like children with thoughtful parents. Parents cry endlessly.

Wang Dachuan probably understood that when he slept with Fang Xing at night, he consciously began to fulfill his responsibilities as an elder brother, and he was very good at taking care of children.

Ji Xuanhe had already investigated the household registration of the two children. Wang Dachuan was five years old and Fang Xing was three years old. They looked younger than their actual ages.The other children in the village are not much better than them, and it is the fault of years of wars that lead to such situations everywhere.

The government of Yingzhou is not bad. Most of the people live and work in peace and contentment, and there are very few people fleeing refugees.The frontline is where the situation is most tense, and some places are really empty.Now everything is on the right track, and the people who fled to the rear have begun to return to their original places one after another.

The next morning, under the witness of people invited by the Mazhong people, the two children were crossed out from the genealogy of the Wang family and the Fang family.After the procedures in the village were completed, Ji Xuan and his husband left with their two children.Wang Dachuan was already the governor, and when he bid farewell to his relatives and turned to board the carriage, the tears that could not be shed in his eyes finally dripped down. At first, he choked up silently, then slowly turned into a soft sob, and finally merged into a stream and evolved into Howling.

Fang Xing didn't know what happened. Seeing Wang Dachuan crying so hard, he started crying too.

The relatives of the two people are very anxious outside. If this is rejected by Ji's family, that would be great.They wanted to go forward to persuade one or two, but they were stopped by the village chief, and then he also boarded the carriage.The others could only watch the carriage go away in the dust. They could do nothing but pray in their hearts that the child would not be rejected by the Ji family couple.

Ji Xuan and his husband did not make a sound, they patted the backs of the two children gently.Cry, cry now, cry out all the grievances, and you won't be able to cry all the time in the future. A man with ambitions everywhere, how can he shed tears at every turn.

It is obviously not such a good thing to want to take away the two children without paying a price.Wang Dachuan still has relatives within the five clothes. Jimo distributed some money to each family member who took care of him, and Fang Xing handed it over to the patriarch of the Fang family, and the patriarch distributed it.After the incident, he jumped on his horse and chased after his master.

Those few families who got the silver were so happy, it was no different from a pie falling from the sky.As long as life can go on, you can't just watch your child die. If you still have the energy to spare, there are not many people who are really ruthless.

With the sound of horseshoes, Shangwang Village is not far from Yingzhou Fucheng, and the group returned to the Fuya within a short time.

Ji Xuan and himself are magistrates, so the officials in charge of household registration dare not embarrass him, so they quickly re-registered the two children and included them in his household registration.The older one is called Ji Ningyou, and the younger one is called Ji Ningran. From this moment, the two children officially become part of Ji's family.

The village chief only knew Ji Xuanhe's identity at this time, and he was very moved. Wang Dachuan and Fang Xing can be said to be lucky. There is nothing better than this.

Ji Xuanhe was going to the Yamen, and Shao Yunchen spent most of his time with the two children.Adoptive heirs are a serious matter, and the Ji family will eventually declare the identities of the two children.Due to the fact that the two children are newcomers, they are somewhat restrained in their actions, and their bodies need to be recuperated for a while before they can recover. In their current state, it is not beneficial for them to directly let the two children appear in front of everyone.Then Jixuan and his husband decided to let them raise them for a period of time, and then tell the public about the two children after they got familiar with the new environment.

Calculating the time, it was time for Qiu Cheng and his party to arrive in the capital. Ji Xuanhe finished his affairs, leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and began to think.His family had lost contact with the Ji Mansion of Yunzhou Prefecture, but unfortunately, the journey was too far, and Ji Xuanhe was an official, so it was inconvenient for him to communicate with his second uncle and Pan's family.

The second uncle is also in the year of knowing his destiny. Among Ji Xuanhe's relatives in Jinchao, the second uncle treats him the best, but it is difficult to move around because of the thousands of mountains and rivers. It will fade away.

There has been no news for so many years, I hope the second uncle is still alive.Ji Xuanhe got this bad thought out of his mind, and when it was almost time, he got up and went home for lunch.

Ji Xuanhe didn't buy an additional house, and has been living in the house attached to the government office for the past few years.According to the population and size, the prefectures are divided into upper, middle, and lower grades. Although Yingzhou prefecture is a lower prefecture, due to its geographical location, among all the prefectures in Sichuan, the economy ranks very high in the lower prefectures, even compared with Some central government did not give way too much.

Forget it during the war, under the heavy taxation, the more prosperous the economy, the heavier the taxes, the officials are the same no matter which government they work in.It's different now, taxes are the same, and the degree of economic prosperity determines the performance of officials and the amount of money they can make.If you don't commit crimes, you can get more. Which official would not be jealous?

Places like Yingzhou Mansion are where many officials are staring.Yingzhou Mansion is just a lower mansion, relatively speaking, it is easier to obtain, and the number of officials who go through the back door is not much less than that of some upper mansions.

Although King An didn't take care of Ji Xuanhe after he became the prefect of Yingzhou Prefecture, it was not so easy to pull him down.Ji Xuanhe registered with King An, and if he didn't produce enough evidence to overthrow him, even if he reported to King An, he would only be suppressed by him.

At the beginning, some officials wanted to take some action and transferred to Yingzhou Prefecture, but it was all gone, and they remembered to investigate Ji Xuanhe's origin.Ji Xuanhe's identity is clear at a glance, it's no big deal, but it will hinder his official career, but he has registered in front of King An, so he can't move easily.This way was blocked, and these officials who wanted to seek the post of prefect had no choice but to rest their minds, do some research, and prepare to take other paths.

Originally, Ji Xuanhe was a fifth-rank official, but after the civil strife ended, he was promoted to a fourth rank, and Wen Tongzhi was also promoted to a fifth rank, which was truly in line with Tongzhi's rank.At the same time, another Yao Tongzhi was sent from above. After a few months of getting along, it was obviously not the way to go with Ji Xuanhe.With such an extra deputy, Ji Xuanhe's work will not be as smooth as before.

Ji Xuanhe didn't worry too much, what he did before and what he still does now.If you really want to hinder the development of Yingzhou Prefecture, Ji Xuanhe is not such a talkative person. He is the magistrate, so he has the final say in Yingzhou Prefecture.It's just that if something goes wrong, he has to bear it all, and the fact that the law does not blame the public cannot be made good use of.

Ji Xuanhe never planned to make money in his official career, so he doesn't need to worry about it.Now he is also a person with a small family, and he is inevitably more attentive than before. He used to turn a blind eye to some things, but he decided to take care of them slowly.Little things can't be decided, but big things can't be decided. He is going to clean up Yingzhou Mansion, and he has had enough of the days when someone is pulling him back from time to time.

"Come, call father." Shao Yunchen led the two children to stand under the eaves of the lobby, and nodded to Ji Xuanhe as a greeting.

"Father!" The eldest son Ji Ningyou pulled the hem of Shao Yunchen's clothes and opened his mouth obediently, not forgetting to signal to his younger brother.

"Father, dear!" The youngest son, Ji Ningran, is three years old, and he still has some slurred speech.

"Well, good boy. Let's go in and eat."

The population of Ji's family is simple. Although Ji Xuan and his wife were born in honorable families, because they left home since they were young, the two of them only learned the rules for a while. Later, even though they were taught by Mr. Zhen, they didn't pay much attention to pomp and manners.

Dining for two people is usually based on simple nutrition, and there will be no situation where there are only two people dining and there are ten or eight dishes on the table.Now that there are two more children, it is just two more sets of bowls and chopsticks, and one or two more dishes.

Although the Ji family is not enough compared to the top, it is more than enough compared to the bottom.Except for the days when Ji Xuanhe was sick, Ji Xuan and his husband had never been short of money.The meals are not so delicate, but there are few too fatty dishes in the meals.Before, the two children couldn't eat enough to eat, and their bodies would definitely not be able to bear the big fish and meat all of a sudden.

Shao Yunchen ordered some light meals and ate at the same table. It would be a bad idea for them to eat big fish and meat, and let the two children watch helplessly.Doing so was not conducive to developing relationships with the children, so he and Ji Xuanhe simply spent a few days with light vegetables with the two children.

From the very beginning, Ji Xuan and his colleague Shao Yunchen didn't treat the two children as outsiders. After Shao Yunchen picked up chopsticks of meat for each of the two children, he didn't care about them anymore, and told them what they like to eat, so he picked it up himself. Their home, in their own home, there is no need to be polite.

That's what Shao Yunchen told the two children last night. After the two meals, the two children are no longer as shy as they were when they first arrived, and they will pick up some dishes in front of them from time to time.

Ji Ningran was still too young, so Shao Yunchen specially ordered his mother to cook a bowl of soft egg custard, put it in front of him, and let him eat it by himself.

Seeing Ji Ningyou's small eyes occasionally drifting towards egg custard, Shao Yunchen swallowed the food in his mouth, and said to Ji Ningyou seriously: "Ningyou wants to eat too? Just say it if you want to eat it. As a boy, you have to be brave. You can't keep silent. If you don't say it, dad and father won't know what you want. If things go on like this, don't hold yourself back."

After struggling for a while, with Shao Yunchen's encouragement, Ji Ningyou mustered up the courage and said, "Father, I want to eat too."

"Well, if you have any idea, just say it, as long as it is a reasonable request, dad and your father will agree." Shao Yunchen dug a spoonful of egg custard into Ji Ningyou's bowl, "Ningran, this time I only stewed a bowl of eggs. Soup, dad is the master, you and your brother eat together. You are brothers, you must know how to share, Ning You as an elder brother should take care of your younger brother, but as a younger brother, you should respect your elder brother, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand now, after a long time, you will got it."

Ji Xuanhe watched from the side, he didn't have much time at home, and Shao Yunchen had to do most of this kind of teaching the children.Sometimes he couldn't help but rejoice, luckily Shao Yunchen is a man, otherwise the chances of letting his mother take care of his son and teach him to become a talent are really slim.It's not that he looks down on women, but the limitations of this era.Growing up in the hands of women, boys are mostly soft-tempered, and most of the women in this era are not very knowledgeable, which also led to such a result.

Although Shao Yunchen is a married man, Ji Xuanhe has never restricted him. Apart from caring about his family, he is no different from a well-established man. With his teaching, the child will not be taught astray, so he is very relieved.
