Jiao Shibo's gift-giving philosophy is also true, at least that's how it is done in modern society. Whether it's seeing a patient or congratulating a happy event, giving money directly, not to mention clean, can help the other party relax financially.But this philosophy is not very good in this era. Although there is no shortage of such market places, it tends to give people a feeling that it is too rough to be put on the table.So, in the end, after asking Jiao Da, Jiao Yufeng still used a more expressive way, a set of walnut wood furniture, two pieces of goat skin, as a gift for promotion, sent to Hou Xianwei's new house in the next county .

"The leather is easy to say, it can always be used for making clothes, but the furniture... Father, don't everyone pay attention to custom-made these days, can it be used when it is delivered to your door?"

Jiao Shibo always felt that what his father gave was a bit strange. In modern times, when someone gets promoted and moves, you give someone a sofa, a coat, etc. Can you see it?People must not think you are crazy.But when such scruples were asked on Jiao Yufeng's head, his father laughed at him,

"Why can't it be used? The government offices are basically unified throughout the country, and the subdivided courtyards are naturally of the same structure. This furniture can also be used to make flowers? Don't worry, I guarantee that any room can be placed in it."

"Wait, official office? Does he live in a public house?"

"No, speaking of it, the welfare of officials in ancient times was really good. No matter where you are an official, there is a big yard where you can house your family, or the kind with a small garden, and you can basically live with your bags. Appropriate, to be honest, I sent it here, said to put it in, that is all to exaggerate myself, as far as our wood, can it compare with those chicken wing woods? I guess it is just icing on the cake and looks good, and it may not be able to When it comes to the scene, after all, there are still a lot of good things left behind by the officials who have been in office, no matter how bad they are, they can still make up a main house, enough for him to support the scene."

Having said that, in fact, Jiao Yufeng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, his grade was still low, and he didn't pay attention to sending it in. How could he not get points?This can't be a gift for others to show off. Can he not feel a little bit disappointed?Even if the levels are different, it still has to face.

The father is struggling with face issues, but Jiao Shibo is more concerned about the welfare of ancient officials. Even though he does not read a lot, there are some things that cannot be understood by reading books. In order to taste the taste.

"Oh, I understand what you said. It's probably like the Hou County Captain now. After taking office, someone sent something, waiting to go, take it away lightly, and leave the bulky ones, such officials In the past, the things accumulated in the past are enough to support the house belonging to the county lieutenant, that’s what it means.”

"That's what I mean. Except for some really old, rotten, or really ugly styles, the general ones may not be used by you. So, this furniture belongs to the same family. Even for Hou Xianwei, as long as there are enough people giving gifts and congratulations, the scene is lively, and he has a lot of connections, so that he will not be too deserted when he takes office, and he will not be compared to others. Care about what you give."

Speaking of this, Jiao Yufeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and unconsciously thought of the people he saw near the house that day, several of them were surrounded by a cage, neither stepped forward nor walked far away, and didn't even say a word of gossip Even if he doesn't wink, he can still feel the coldness, that official. . .I'm afraid Hou Xianwei may not be successful.But regardless of whether it was smooth or not, at any rate, Hou Xianwei is now considered an official. This step has taken the past, and it is not only his own grade that has been improved, but also the grade of his family and clan. Will not compromise.

"If this is the case, father, then you have been searching for a long time these days, is it in vain? If you can't let him see it every day, is it still useful?"

"How can this be considered in vain? At any rate, it can be regarded as showing his face in the Yamen, getting acquainted with each other, and by the way, letting Hou Tutou leave the capital, so that we will not be forgotten. From this point of view, this ceremony is Nothing is wasted. Even if you don’t look at it every day, if you accept it, you will accept it. If we ask for something in the future, this is human favor.”

After all, other people's affairs are not as important as his own son's. Jiao Yufeng still wants to think more about the county government in the next county.

As for the layout or something, as soon as the son has a problem here, he immediately puts everything about Hou Xianwei behind him, and only cares about teaching his son.It's not good that there is no woman in the family. The gift-giving and so on have to be handled by their father and son themselves. Even the children's teaching here requires him to explain that he is half-understood. This is really not an ordinary trouble.

Does Jiao Yufeng feel bothered?Jiao Shibo still finds it difficult to accept, but now he has discovered that perhaps it is the relationship between Jiao Yufeng's constant contact with people, and perhaps the relationship between the level of people he contacts is relatively targeted. Today's father is no longer a The appearance when he first came here in the past has many characteristics belonging to this era, and also has a little more thoughtfulness and utilitarianism. If you think about it carefully, it pays attention to twists and turns, which seems to be the same as Jiao Da and Jin Guanjia. Flow, with a hint of similarity.

Sure enough, if you are close to ink, you will be black, and if you are close to vermilion, you will be red. This old saying is still good. Jiao Yufeng couldn't understand the complicated thoughts in the past, but now he is teaching him. The change is so big that he almost can't recognize it.It's just that he knows better that among these changes, his father's purpose is to better adapt to this era and to better protect his son, so Jiao Shibo basically turns a blind eye to these changes in his father. , But how can you pretend that you don't know, and you can have no idea in your heart.

No, after hearing what Jiao Yufeng said, he couldn't help muttering:

"Co-authoring you spent so many brain cells for this? What are you worried about? Don't we still have grandpa? Don't we still have the Jia family?"

"Bastard, who am I doing this for? Do you understand the Three Caves of the Rabbit? We can't just rely on the Jia family, besides, the Jia family now... Although it's not yet the beginning of the plot, I can't say what will happen in the future." What's the matter, but the way it looks now, no matter how you look at it, it won't be the same as the original book, without foresight, can you be sure that the Jia family will be harmless to us? Can you be sure that the future will be reliable?"

Um?To say so. . .

"Father, what do you know? The reaction is so big. Come on, tell me quickly, let me analyze it too?"

"You, well, since you want to know, then you should listen to it too. Remember the last time the Rong Mansion said that they wanted to invite the nanny in the palace, now..."

What now?Now the mothers from the palace are here, but the number of people here is somewhat unexpected, not only for the prostitute Jia Min, but also several other concubines, who are also brought up by the mothers in the palace.

You said, with such a release, can these concubines really break off all ties when they get married in the future?There are these nanny who stand out in the conflict of interests in the palace, no matter how stupid they are, they know what it means to build momentum, right? Backed by such a duke's mansion, if they don't use gifts to support themselves, their brains must be eaten by pigs. Thinking about Jia Min's lack of children, or even the entire Lin family's lack of children, she can rely on her position as the head of the house to be stable. Can a concubine who has been trained by the palace nurse give up such a thick leg?

Also, with such an inner house fighter around, even if these prostitutes are not proficient in the back house methods, how can they still have no words and no female takeaways to die early?Jiao Shibo said that it would be good if they didn't take action to cut off his life, after all, the grade of this method is different.

The last point, if these nuns have entered the door, even if it is for their identity as nurturing nuns to be a little detached, and for the status of the children they are nurturing to be more stable, will it still prevent Shi Shi from coming out of the mountain again?And with so many highly skilled, uncommon visions, and even gilded maids in the palace, even if the Shi family still has some manpower, what use is it?The fact that they were not completely cleared out was the bottom line that the Jia family had to compromise for the sake of face.

After such a calculation, and then calculating the intimacy and degree of influence between the Rong Mansion and the Ning Mansion, even the big-hearted Jiao Shibo has to admit that his father is right. There is really no way to guess.After all, even the upbringing is different. Can this person's personality, temper, and future achievements be the same?

Fortunately, it was rare for them to come into contact with such high-level figures. Even though they felt that it was a pity to lose such a big golden finger advantage, it would not have any direct impact. As long as they were more vigilant, they would be able to get by .Even if you want to be wider, they may not be good.

"Father, no matter what, if the Jia family can last longer, it will be good for us. If nothing else, just look at it now, at least Grandpa will benefit. With his current status as a teacher , even if Jia Zhen doesn't show any promises in the future, her status as an enlightenment teacher is enough for the grandfather to walk sideways in Jia's house in the future. Even with us, it is considered a face."

"If you have a face, you have a face, and if you are reliable, you can be reliable. If this Shixun family is fooling around, although they may not seem to be motivated, they will be safe. On the contrary, if they are motivated, the degree of danger will actually increase. Don't you Forgot, you told me back then when you were watching those fandoms, saying that the decline of the Jia family was partly due to the wrong bet when the prince was fighting for the heir. If you make a wrong bet, you can steal your home. If you are up to the challenge, you have more power in your hands, and when you meet...what good will it do? It doesn't matter how many lives you can save. If this is the case, then we. . . ”

"I said Dad, are you thinking too much? This thing can happen now? But it will not happen until Jia Shege's beard is gray. It's still early."

"Am I thinking too much? It's because you haven't turned your head around. Think about the current emperor's grade? Then think about the so-called emperor's problem later on. Have you noticed the problem?"

problem found?what is the problem. . .Wait, the emperor at this moment seems to be very old, how can he be the emperor in 40 to [-] years?Whoops, that means, in the past few years, maybe there will be a change of throne?Oh my god, if you say that. . .Well, what does that have to do with us?
