After fleeing the wasteland and farming, he made a rebellion

Chapter 69 Meeting with the prefect again

After the new year, Sun Wangui was not in a hurry to let everyone work. After working for so long, he had to let everyone have a good rest no matter what.

The members of the Sun family were not idle, they were all helping Sun Wangui make jewelry boxes.Finally, on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Sun Wangui made six satisfactory finished products.

This year is the first year that Ji Xingze and Mrs. Qu have known each other. As early as the first day of the Lunar New Year, he and Sun Fuxi paid New Year's greetings to Qu Tongzhi's family. Ji Xingze's painting of the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams was also sent over years ago.

On the early morning of the seventh day of the lunar new year, Ji Xingze and Sun Fuxi went to Qu's house to deliver a jewelry box, but Madam Qu gave them a huge surprise.

"It's too coincidental for you to come today." Mrs. Qu was very happy to see the two of them, and her mouth couldn't close.

"Cousin, is there any happy event?" Ji Xingze asked.

"It's not my happy event, it's yours."

"Nephew's?" Ji Xingze thought for a while, "Could it be that my nephew asked my uncle to help find it?"

"Of course, but I'm talking about something else."

"Could it be that the nephew's identity has already been determined?" Ji Xingze quickly denied, "No, it's less than two months away, and it's the end of the year, so it won't be so soon."

"Who said it won't be posted?" Mrs. Qu smiled, "It's just that we have to wait another month or two before we can receive the imperial edict from the emperor."

Then he explained: "It is precisely because of the end of the year, officials from all over the country have to present New Year gifts to the emperor, and they have to walk with some officials' homes in the court, so each family will send the most capable people in the family to Beijing. It is also a coincidence, our family sent The people who went there found out in advance that your royal family status has been confirmed by the royal family, and they also said that the emperor has asked the royal family to propose a title for you, but the title will not be known until the imperial decree is issued."

This is great news, Ji Xingze immediately got up and thanked Mrs. Qu after hearing this. "My aunt and uncle have been worrying about my nephew's affairs a lot. My nephew thank you in advance." After speaking, he bowed deeply to Mrs. Qu.

"Why are you and I being polite? To put it bluntly, in this world besides your cousin, you are the closest to my flesh and blood. Who else can I help if I don't help you?" It means that Qu Tongzhi will be in the back.

It was not easy for Ji Xingze to answer these words, but he also knew that his aunt really cared for him.Then he changed the subject and asked: "Cousin, just now you said that the person my nephew was looking for has been found? Where are they now?"

"The prefect of Qi has already sent someone to escort him back, and he will be able to return to Fucheng in just two days."

"Then when will they be able to work with their nephew?"

"The prefect of Qi has already known that your royal status has been recognized. Your uncle said that the prefect of Qi is going to sell you a favor. He will send you there after he is escorted back."

"That's great, nephew is short of people. Is the cousin's study settled?" Ji Xingze asked again.

"It's settled. Let Yuxuan go to Wenshan Academy to study after the new year according to your previous proposal. After Xue Zhuangyuan comes back, he and the three sons of Qi Zhifu's family will give him some advice from time to time. No, you Uncle Biao took him to visit the head of Wenshan Academy today."

After that, Ji Xingze asked about the house again, so he and Sun Fuxi planned the reconstruction in advance.

"Don't mention it," Mrs. Qu waved her hand, "I won't sell it." She added, "If it were me, I might not be willing to sell it either. After all, the family has lived together for many years."

"My nephew also thought about it when I went back. If that house doesn't sell the house, you can discuss with them to only buy the east corner."

"Only buy the east corner? That can save a lot of money, and save a lot of construction work, right? But what if they still refuse to sell it?"

"You ask them to find a Feng Shui master to show them. Since this house is missing a corner, then their house must have an extra corner, or it can be said that the rest of the triangles are missing."

"It means the feng shui of their house is worse than here?"

"Uh... how should I put it? It's not a big problem to have an extra corner, but their family must have had some unsatisfactory things over the years."

"Okay, I'll discuss it with them as you said."

After the two aunts and nephews finished talking about this, Sun Fuxi was more concerned about whether Mrs. Qu was satisfied with the six jewelry boxes?After getting an affirmative answer, Sun Fuxi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, mainly because Sun Wangui was afraid of wasting such good wood.

Talking about the jewelry box, Mrs. Qu shook the spiritual wooden bead string on her wrist, and said, "Since I wear this string of beads, I sleep very well." She then asked, "Do you have any extra?" ? I want to get a bunch for Yuxuan too."

"This cousin is very sorry. At the beginning, my father only found a small piece of Yangshenmu, and even our family only had one bead." Sun Fuxi took the Yangshenmu bead hanging around his neck and To Madam Qu, "Why don't you give my bead to Cousin Yuxuan to wear first?"

"No!" Without waiting for Madam Qu's answer, Ji Xingze tore off the beads around his neck, "Let cousin Yuxuan wear mine."

Seeing Ji Xingze's rare gaffe, Mrs. Qu didn't pick up the beads he handed over to Sun Fuxi before him.She looked at Ji Xingze, then at Sun Fuxi, and smiled, "The two of you only have one Shenmu bead, but I have a whole bunch of them. I'll take the beads apart later and there are a dozen or so beads." one." It's just that each bead is much smaller than the ones hanging around Sun Fuxi and Ji Xingze's necks.

Ji Xingze tried to give his beads to Mrs. Qu again, but Mrs. Qu refused.This matter will be over.

Just like the previous two times, Mrs. Qu still stayed with the two of them for dinner.Before the two of them left, Mrs. Qu gave them several new clothes, especially Ji Xingze's new clothes, the materials of which were extraordinary.

"Biaogu, this is..." Ji Xingze hesitated whether to accept it or not.

"Your status will be different soon. You can't always dress so poorly, can you? Listen to your cousin, and wear what you should wear when you go back. By the way," Mrs. Qu said again, "Don't you have a group of subordinates? You should let them Just let them do the work, and let them do it for the sake of appearance. From now on, you have to bring a servant by your side, so it’s convenient for you to run around.”

Mrs. Qu turned her head and looked at Sun Fuxi again, "Your family is not the same now as it used to be. You have to be served by your side, and besides, someone has to teach you the rules. Otherwise, I will give you two smarter people to serve you. how?"

Well?Sun Fuxi had never thought of finding someone to serve her, so Mrs. Qu was a little confused when she said that.However, she immediately declined Madam Qu's gift to her.

She doesn't want to delay others, even if it's just a servant girl, but she has a good time in the Tongzhi Mansion, so why give her a country girl as a servant girl?

Although Sun Fuxi didn't ask the maids and nanny to serve him by his side, Ji Xingze had an idea, but he didn't mention it to Sun Fuxi on the way back before the time came.
