Several people in the yard were forced to stop talking, Yu Jinyue scratched his head and shouted outside, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Uncle Ye." Ye Chongshan, who was knocking on the door, put down his hand, and he was relieved when he heard Yu Jinyue answering the door. He whispered: "My lord, this is Yu Jinhuai's family, and it was his cousin who just answered."

"En." The middle-aged man responded in a low voice, holding it in his hands, with an amiable look.

At noon today, Ye Chongshan had nothing to do and was ready to go to Daqing Mountain. Once winter came, the wild boars and wolves in the mountains could not find food and would run down the mountain, attacking the poultry of the villagers, and destroying the most important food for the farmers. Fields, so he will go around the foot of the mountain every winter. Although they seldom come out of the deep mountains, it is still good to prevent problems before they happen.

Just like in the winter six years ago, the Liu family who lived near the Daqing Mountain at the end of the village was murdered by wild wolves, leaving only one half-grown boy. When they arrived at the county government office, they called the people from the government office to drive away the wild wolves. In order to frighten them, the people from the government office went to Daqing Mountain the next morning. It is said that they killed more than a dozen wolves, almost killing a pack of wolves. It's enough to deter them.

Since then, every winter he will go around the Daqingshan, just in case.

But today when he happened to go out, he saw the county magistrate showing up at the door of his house with someone. After asking, he found out that he was looking for Yu Jinhuai. They went to Yu's house, so the present scene appeared. They stood together at the front door of Yu's house, waiting for the owner to open the door.

Yu Jinyue opened the door from the inside and asked Ye Chongshan, "Uncle Ye, why are you here? Is there something wrong?"

Ye Chongshan, who was standing outside the door, responded angrily: "Hurry up and open the door, there's so much nonsense."

Yu Jinyue couldn't help muttering a few words, and opened the door twice, the silly smile on his mouth gradually subsided when he saw the strange man beside him, he glanced curiously, and saw that the clothes on his body didn't look like their farmer's attire , the temperament on his body was also incompatible with their Cangnan Village, and seeing his followers following behind him, he was taken aback for a moment.

This person seems to have a lot of background, but he doesn't know what to do at my second brother's house?

It was Ye Chongshan who looked at his stupid look, raised his hand and knocked on his forehead, and said with a straight face: "Why don't you let the guests in quickly, what are you doing blocking the door?"

Others sitting in the courtyard heard their conversation, guests?

Yu Jinhuai said: "Xiao Yue, please come in."

After being reminded by his second brother and the village head, Yu Jinyue hastily opened the door and motioned for them to come in.

Ye Chongshan signaled the county magistrate to go first with his hands, and he walked behind by himself. When he passed by Yu Jinyue, he gave Yu Jinyue a glare, and nodded his forehead resentfully, "Snack."

Seeing that everyone went in, he was still leaning against the door in a daze, Ye Chongshan angrily strode over and pulled him to close the door by himself, shook his sleeves heavily, and said helplessly, "I still haven't followed."

"Oh, here we come." Yu Jinyue came back to his senses, and hurriedly followed behind him. When they walked into the yard, they happened to see Yu Jinhuai and Meng Yunshu leading the people into the main room. The dishes and chopsticks that have not been cleaned up in time, must not be allowed to sit here and talk to distinguished guests.

The door curtain of the main room was rolled up by the county magistrate's entourage, and the county magistrate also took the main seat. Below him sat the village chief and his second brother.

Meng Yunshu came out of the main room, stood aside, made sure that his position would not be seen by the people in the main room, then waved to Yu Jinyue and called him in a low voice.

Seeing him calling himself, Yu Jinyue trotted up to him, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong, brother?"

Meng Yunshu said: "You clean up the bowls and chopsticks first, and I will do it with you after I finish making tea."

"Row."

Meng Yunshu was about to walk into the kitchen, when she caught sight of Yu Jinlan and Yu Zhining who were sitting at the small table crookedly looking at them from the corner of her eye, she couldn't help chuckling, maybe a stranger came to the house, and her clothes were different from theirs, There were servants behind them, and a few of them had knives on their bodies. At their age, they were just curious, so they inevitably wanted to find out.

As early as when the two big dogs came in, Yu Jinhuai scolded them to go to the backyard, plus they all stayed in the main room, not to mention Yu Jinhuai was still there, Daqing and Dahei were human natured, basically nothing would happen.

Farmers do not have good tea at home, and most of them are wild tea leaves picked from the mountains or dried wild flowers and bamboo leaves. When visitors come, a bowl of sugar water can be said to be the best that the farm can produce.

Since three years ago, the Yu family has not visited often, so the family did not prepare tea, only the wild honey that Yu Jinhuai brought back from the mountains.

Meng Yunshu took out a few bowls from the cupboard, and rinsed them with warm water, and then dug out a spoonful of solidified honey from the honey pot. He held the pot and took a look in. There was only honey left With a shallow layer, the bottom of the jar can already be seen in the place where it was dug just now.

In winter, the weather is dry and cold, and I have to drink a bowl of hot water from time to time, so Meng Yunshu deliberately warms the water in a spare pot every day. There are sparks left by cooking at the bottom of the pot, and it is always warm every time he drinks it.

Lifting the lid of the pot, scooped up a ladle of water, Meng Yunshu poured the honey water, and Yu Jinyue also packed up all the bowls and chopsticks in the yard and brought them in. Hearing his footsteps, Meng Yunshu turned around and asked, "Xiaoyue drinks honey water?" ?"

Yu Jinyue, like Yu Jinhuai, doesn't like sweets. He sat in front of the sink while washing and replied, "Brother, I don't drink it."

"Little uncle, let me drink." Yu Zhining, who ran in, hugged Meng Yunshu's head, raised his head and looked at him expectantly with big eyes, and blinked, with his small mouth slightly pouted, looking like a spoiled child.

"Okay." Meng Yunshu pinched his nose with one free hand, "Make a bowl for both Aning and Xiaolan."

After receiving Meng Yunshu's nod, he ran out very happily, with a cheerful smile on his face. Meng Yunshu, who was holding honey water, could hear him chatting happily with Yu Jinlan from afar, with smiles on his eyes and brows.

-

In the main room, after watching Meng Yunshu leave, Yu Jinhuai looked at the county magistrate who was sitting in the main seat. He had been to the county government, but almost never met the county magistrate, but the master who stood next to the county magistrate had met once or twice , from the respectful attitude of the master towards him, it is not difficult for Yu Jinhuai to judge his identity.

Caught in the county magistrate's joking gaze, Yu Jinhuai pretended to be calm, saluted him, and said, "My lord."

The county magistrate's eyes flashed, and he didn't say much, but it was not difficult to see from the smile on his mouth that he was happy after being recognized. Whether it was Yu Jinhuai or the scholar Yu Jinjiang back then, he was surprised. The speed can be called excellent.

"Yu Jinhuai, Yu Jinjiang's younger brother." The county magistrate stroked his beard and looked straight at him.

Yu Jinhuai didn't understand why he mentioned his elder brother, but he still said: "The Caomin is Yu Jinhuai."

After a while, he asked bluntly: "What is the purpose of my lord's visit to the humble house this time?"

The village head, Ye Chongshan, sat beside him with an old god, pricking up his ears and listening more seriously than anyone else.

He cut straight to the point, and the county magistrate couldn't hide it. He coughed lightly, and the master behind him handed over a brochure in due course. name."

Yu Jinhuai frowned slightly, took it in doubt and opened it under the direction of the county magistrate's eyes. This was the booklet proving that he was a scholar to Yu Jinjiang, which he had handed over to the county government before. Simply put, it was just a piece of paper.

Meng Yunshu came in with honey water, and saw Yu Jinhuai holding a booklet in his hand. He took advantage of the pretext of delivering water, quickly glanced at it, put the water one by one, and then retreated.

"You went to the county government for the land under Yu Jinjiang's name. The imperial court stipulated that the [-] mu of land under the name of a scholar can be exempted from paying land taxes. This kind of grace should have been taken back after Yu Jinjiang's death." The county magistrate Pausing for a while, he licked his lips, looked down and saw a bowl of water, frowned slightly and then quickly let go, after all, in the village, few people prepare tea at home.

Ye Zhongshan, who was always paying attention to him, also blamed himself a little when he saw this, he should have brought his own tea with him when he came.

The county magistrate sighed silently in his heart. After walking for such a long time, without saying much, he became thirsty. He stared at the water in the bowl and had to take it up to drink. After drinking it, he realized that it was not water but honey water. The unhappiness in my heart disappeared, and the honey was precious.

Then he said: "Is there a noble person to help, saying that it will allow you to enjoy the court's grace for a few more years."

"Your Excellency?" Yu Jinhuai had a bad guess when he heard this, lowered his eyes and looked at the brochure belonging to his brother in his hand, and slowly tightened his fingers.

"Yes, nobleman." The county magistrate smiled cheerfully and said, "Just lend him your brother's name as a scholar, and the Yu family can enjoy the land tax exemption policy for generations, how about it?"

Ye Chongshan's eyes widened when he heard the words. He looked at the county magistrate sitting in shock in shock, and almost jumped up angrily, pointing at someone and scolding him. He is the county magistrate of Hua'an County, how could he say so easily? If someone else's fame is handed over to another person.

How difficult it is for the peasant family to confess a scholar, but in the end, this scholar can get a little favor. A simple sentence is worth Yu Jinjiang's poor study for more than ten years?

Hearing the sound, Yu Jinhuai squinted at him and let out a mocking laugh, the scar on his forehead added some hostility to him, look, how harsh it is.

This is a favor?Is it a reward?His elder brother's hard work in the exam and his parents' frugality are all for making wedding dresses for others?

Yu Jinyue's eyes were full of sarcasm, and he said disdainfully, "How can this nobleness be given to you? Your position as county magistrate must be more valuable than the fame of a mere scholar."

After the county magistrate heard this, he was provoked by a commoner in front of his subordinates. Where would he save the county magistrate's face?He patted the table angrily, but then swept the bowl on the table to the ground. He stood up, pointed at Yu Jinhuai, and said calmly, "I'll give you three days. If you don't agree, there's no need for the Yu family to exist. .”

He put down his words, and saw Yu Jinhuai lowering his head, pinching the booklet in his hand vigorously, the veins on his neck were clearly visible, and his back was straightened, which showed that he was extremely angry.

The county magistrate swaggered away, leaving a sentence; "Think about it, I will send someone to ask."

Meng Yunshu, who was in the kitchen, had heard something was wrong, hurriedly went out to bring the two little ones in, and looked at the main room worriedly, feeling extremely anxious.
