Chapter 1343 Lin Qing
Zhulan was surprised that the Lin family would send a post, and it was written by the old lady of the Lin family herself. Last time at the business, she and the old lady of the Lin family only spoke a few words.
Every generation of the Lin family will have a censor, and they have a wide network of contacts in the censor circle. It is one of the few families in the capital that does not form cliques.
Zhao was surprised, "You even invited me to go."
Zhulan hummed, "When the time comes, you will go with me."
Mrs. Zhao didn't take it seriously, there were so many posts inviting her recently, she just thought it was because of her husband.
In the household department, after Zhou Shuren explained the matter, Zhang Jinghong was left behind, "You sit down first."
Zhang Jinghong has become more mature and stable with age. Although he has not been promoted in the official position, no one in the household department will underestimate him, except for some people who still shy away from him. He has already integrated well into the household department.
Zhou Shuren said: "The new servant will be transferred in a few days."
Zhang Jinghong, "The lower officials know."
After Mr. Wang left, they were waiting for a new servant.
Zhou Shuren said again: "You have not been promoted in the household department for many years, and the emperor mentioned you today."
Zhang Jinghong's situation is special. He has been promoted in the household department for many years without formal procedures. To put it bluntly, Zhang Jinghong's official position depends on the emperor.
Zhang Jinghong's originally relaxed back couldn't help but tense, even if he wasn't greedy, why didn't he yearn for something better?
These years, he has been working diligently in the household department. For what, isn't it just to reassure the emperor, so that his son can have a better future?
Zhou Shuren continued: "With the reform of each ministry, the power of each department of each ministry has been subdivided, and there have been some changes in positions. I think you should be promoted to a higher level."
Zhang Jinghong was overjoyed, Master Shangshu said so, obviously the emperor agreed, with the reform of various ministries, in the past, the Ministry of Households did not have official positions from the fourth rank and the fourth rank, but only after the reform. , in the future, he will be able to take charge of a department, not like now because of his special status, where he needs to move has not been determined.
Zhou Shuren stood up and patted Zhang Jinghong on the shoulder, "Do it well, don't let me down."
Zhang Jinghong suppressed his excitement, "Your Excellency will definitely not disappoint you."
Zhou Shuren waited for Zhang Jinghong to leave and stroked his beard. He was really surprised by the emperor's attitude towards the orphan of the previous dynasty. The emperor was not as defensive against Zhang Jinghong as he imagined. After thinking about it, he really didn't need to care so much. Now that the prosperous age is gradually forming, Zhang Jinghong is trapped in the capital again. Well, the royal family treats Zhang Jinghong well, it looks like a royal family, there is really no need to suppress Zhang Jinghong.
A few days later, Jiang Sheng and his wife returned to Zhoujia Village. Xuemei didn't stop for a moment, changed her clothes and went to Jiang's house.
Dong Yiyi was surprised, "Why didn't you take a good rest when you first arrived in the village?"
Xuemei looked at Mu Lan, feeling a little guilty. Mu Lan was older than Jiang Du, and she had to face so many gossips at home these years, "I have always thought about Mu Lan in my heart. I can't wait for a moment, so I came here .”
Dong Yiyi breathed a sigh of relief, Xuemei valued her daughter more than anything else, "Let's go inside and talk."
Let's talk, Dong Yiyi looked at the woman who heard the sound, smiled slightly and nodded to invite Xuemei to enter the yard.
Xuemei's actions today will break all the rumors, Dong Yiyi is happy, and her steps are much lighter.
Xuemei's actions don't need too much explanation in words, actions are the best proof that the Jiang family values Mu Lan.
Jiang Du touched the box. This is the jewelry he chooses for Mu Lan wherever he goes. It is a lie that he has deep feelings for Mu Lan. They spend too little time together, which is far worse than that of cousin Mingyun and his sister-in-law. Get along with each other, but getting married is his responsibility, and he believes that he will have a happy marriage.
After Jiang Sheng changed his clothes, he saw his son sitting in a daze, and glanced at the box in his hand, "Go as you want, you don't have to be so shy about getting married right now."
Speaking of which, if his son hadn't followed him everywhere, his son would have gotten married long ago. The Jiang family didn't complain much, so he naturally valued it a little more, and the dowry was a little heavier than originally planned.
Jiang Du smiled, "Mother has already gone, I will go tomorrow."
Jiang Sheng, "That's fine. You're going to start a family in a blink of an eye. I still remember when you were a child."
Speaking of this, Jiang Sheng paused. When his son was young, he had to look after his daughter. At that time, it was difficult for him and his wife. He thought he would forget it. Unfortunately, the traces in his heart are still obvious. Even if his parents treat them well now, the scars in his heart are still Not smoothed.
Jiang Du raised his head suspiciously, "Father."
Jiang Sheng smiled and looked at the distant mountain, "It's nothing, I just remembered that you were very willing to stay at your grandfather's house when you were young."
Jiang Du laughed, "I would also like to stay at Grandpa's house now."
Whether it is grandpa or grandma, he feels that he can realize a lot of truths by listening to the elders more.
In the capital, Zhulan brought Mrs. Zhao to the Lin family. The old lady of the Lin family did not have excessive enthusiasm for Zhulan. The old lady was happy that Zhulan would come over in person, but she did not hold Zhulan.
Zhulan's eyes fell on the young lady in the distance, she searched around and found that Miss Lin's eyes widened slightly, the fat girl in her impression has lost a lot of weight now, it's true that fat people are potential stocks.
Ms. Lin was cute when she was fat, and she is beautiful when she is thinner. Although she is still a little fat now, she is also a fat beauty. Miss Lin who has thinned down looks weaker.
After watching Zhulan for a while, the old lady of the Lin family naturally noticed, "Madam Yang is watching Qing'er?"
Zhulan admitted generously, "I just think Miss Lin has changed a lot."
The old lady of the Lin family knew her granddaughter very well. Qing'er didn't pay attention to everything, but she went to the merchant to have something on her mind. After thinking about it when she came back, she guessed that it was what she had said. The granddaughter who was not in a hurry was anxious.
The old lady of the Lin family lowered her voice, "What do you think of Qing'er, madam?"
Zhulan thought about the evaluation of Lin Qing by her two granddaughters, "Miss Your Mansion is transparent and open-minded, the old lady is blessed."
The eyes of the old lady of the Lin family brightened a little, "I'm not bragging about my granddaughter. I have several granddaughters. Qing'er is the most responsible, and she followed my master's transparency. It's not my compliment. If this girl is a boy, then It is also possible to take the imperial examination and fight hard."
Zhulan squinted her eyes, apparently the Lin family had guessed her standard for Mingrui's daughter-in-law. This was to tell her that Lin Qing was responsible for being the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, and also told her that Lin Qing could keep up with Mingrui's daughter-in-law. Footsteps will not be the ones holding back.
The more Zhulan gets to know Miss Lin, the more she is attracted to her. Originally, she had a good impression of Miss Lin because of her granddaughter's evaluation, but Zhulan didn't find the Lin family good, and that was all a plus.
The businessman was in a bad mood, but the Lin family was on the contrary. Mr. Lin did not return to his hometown as an official, but still stayed in the capital to make Dinghai acupuncture for his children and grandchildren.
Sitting next to her mother-in-law, Mrs. Zhao finally understood what the Lin family meant. There was a business lady in the past who compared her, and Mrs. Zhao thought that Ms. Lin was good everywhere.
