The Way of the Peasant Mother-in-Law

Chapter 1621 Duties

Chang Zhong took Gu Sheng to find Jiang Du and Mu Fan. Jiang Du and Mu Fan were chatting excitedly, when Jiang Du saw his little uncle, "We have won Jinshi."

They took advantage of it, they could listen to grandpa talking about government affairs, and they didn't panic when they listened to a lot. They quoted a few words from grandpa, and they all won the Jinshi. He thought he could only be a fellow Jinshi.

Changzhong also smiled, "A happy event."

Jiang Du asked Gu Sheng, "Is Mr. Gu the number one scholar?"

Gu Sheng shook his head, "Tan Hua Lang."

Jiang Du was surprised for a moment, but then he felt normal again. Whoever said Huiyuan must be the champion, "Congratulations."

Gu Sheng returned the gift, "Congratulations."

In the future, they will all be officials together, but Gu Sheng understands that even though he is a Tanhualang, he doesn't know the future. Jiang Du and Mu Fan have the grandfather Zhouhou and several uncles around, and the future is bright.

Ming Rui came over, and Chang Zhong asked, "Shangguan Liu's ranking?"

Mingrui smiled, "Sixth."

Changzhong, "Not bad."

"Yes, sixth son Wen is fifth."

Changzhong slapped his palm with a fan, "It's almost there."

Mingrui nodded, "Yes, this one is really amazing."

Seeing Mingrui looking at Gu Sheng, Chang Zhong said with a smile, "I saw Mr. Gu was in trouble, so I helped."

Gu Sheng felt embarrassed, "Thank you Mr. Zhou."

Because of the status of Mr. Zhou, no one dared to step forward, and it was Zhou Hou's mansion who was worried.

Chang Zhong said: "I can help you for a day, but you have to rely on yourself to come to the door in the future."

Gu Sheng smiled, "I understand."

The group of people separated, today is a day of great joy for the Jiang family, they don't need to go to the Hou's mansion and go directly back to the Jiang family.

Zhulan brought her daughter-in-law, grandson and others to the eldest daughter's house. Just as the one who came to announce the good news left, two firecrackers were set off at the door and the happy money was sprinkled twice.

The old lady of the Jiang family wept with joy,

When I returned to the main courtyard, my tears didn't stop.

Xuemei was also excited, and felt helpless to her mother-in-law, "Mother, don't cry, Jiang and Du will be back soon."

The old lady of the Jiang family can't control it. It's different if she has her own family. The Jiang family also has an official status. This feeling is different. Even if her son's paintings are sought after, she is not as excited as her grandson's Jinshi.

The old man of the Jiang family also touched his tears, "I am sorry for my ancestors."

Zhulan didn't say a word, and now belongs to the Jiang family's joy.

After Jiang Sheng was happy, he heard his father say that he would go back to worship the ancestors, so he said, "It is necessary to worship the ancestors."

He also wants to go back with him, lest the elder brothers get too far.

Mr. Jiang listened to his son's tone. The old man moved his lips but didn't say a word. They will follow the old son in the future. The eldest son will have his share of the money. They are rich in their hometown, and that's enough. As for the grandsons who are studying, there is nothing to worry about following him in the Zhou family.

Thinking of the money, the old man touched his purse. He has income every year. His land is the size of a small village. This year, he has made a lot of money raising pigs and geese. Before he dies, he will share a few cents. If there are more sons, it will be debt.

When Jiang Du and the others came back, the kitchen of Jiang's family was already busy. Let's have a simple meal first, and then celebrate in the evening.

In the Ministry of Rites, the second prince wanted to vomit blood, Zhou Changyi really dared to comment on his article, the words are still okay, but the content of the comment makes people look angry.

Changyi smiled innocently, "My knowledge is not deep, Second Prince Haihan."

What the second prince can do can only laugh, "I heard that Mr. Zhou has been studying, so I asked him for advice. Since it is difficult, Mr. Zhou will not do it in the future."

Changyi had regret on his face, "Hey, I still have to study hard and try to help His Highness as soon as possible."

The second prince put away the article, "The gold list has come out, Master Zhou's nephew and nephew and son-in-law are all on the list, the Ministry of Rites will separate a department, does Master Zhou have any ideas?"

Changyi's face was still naive, "These two children are lucky, I don't have any ideas, my father should make arrangements."

He knew there was something wrong with the claim of the second prince of the sub-department. Now it seems that he was trying to sell favors, tsk tsk, the second prince is really courageous.

The second prince pointedly said: "Staying in the capital is better than leaving it outside. You must know that not everyone can enter the sixth department."

Chang Yi's smile did not change, "Your Highness said so."

The second prince was depressed, Zhou Changyi had always been like this, he felt depressed every time, and finally left with his mouth pursed.

Lord Liu waited for the second prince to leave before coming over, "Why did you offend the second prince?"

"How dare I provoke the second prince."

"The second prince is still young, even if he hides it, he still can't hide his displeasure."

Changyi, "The second prince wanted to sell favors to our Houfu, but I didn't agree."

Mr. Liu stroked his beard, "I said why the second prince must separate a department!"

Chang Yi, "Let's make a fuss, we'll just stick to our duty."

The next day, they parade through the streets and hold a banquet in the palace at night. After the banquet, they can go back to their hometown to worship their ancestors.

After the banquet, early in the morning, Zhulan saw that her grandson's face was a little pale, "Did you drink less last night?"

Jiang Du rubbed his forehead, "Well, there are quite a few people who know my grandson, and my grandson rarely drinks alcohol, so he drank too much yesterday."

Zhulan, "Then rest for a few days before heading back home to worship the ancestors."

Jiang Du nodded, drank a few cups of tea and cleared his head, talking about yesterday's banquet, "Mother told me to pay more attention to Zhuo Guyu, I kept watching last night, grandma called Zhuo Guyu to the emperor last night, and said After a long conversation, I was given a glass of wine."

Zhulan, "Where are the champion and Tanhualang?"

Jiang Du recalled, "They all came forward to talk, and they didn't stay as long as Zhuo Guyu. Zhuo Guyu couldn't hide his excitement when he came down."

Because of his attention, he saw it clearly. After Zhuo Guyu talked with the emperor, he made a little more publicity. He could feel Zhuo Guyu's good mood from far away.

Zhulan pondered, the emperor's actions must have a deep meaning, forget it, anyway, the emperor is not plotting against her own family.

Jiang Du sat for a while and went back to rest. Zhulan asked Steward Ding to prepare some food for the eldest daughter.

Zhulan got up and went to Yuyi's yard. Yuyi's luggage had already been packed, "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow, please check carefully to see if there is anything left behind."

Yu Yi helped her grandma to sit down, "I have already checked everything."

Zhulan was a little bit reluctant, Yuyi and the others were going to live in Ningzhou for a while, and this trip would last half a year, "Be careful on the road, take care of yourself."

Yuyi was also reluctant, she grew up with her grandparents, "Well, grandma and grandpa pay more attention to their health."

Zhulan patted her granddaughter's hand, "Okay, okay."

Qingxue took a step forward, and Zhulan took the box and handed it to her granddaughter, "Here are the bank notes and some broken silver prepared by grandma. It's convenient to have more broken silver when you go out."

Yu Yi opened the box, and there were thousands of taels of silver bills alone, and a layer of small silver ingots of five taels of silver, with one and two taels of broken silver scattered on the side, "Grandma, granddaughter has silver."

Zhulan pressed Yuyi's hand, "Grandma knows that you have a lot of money, this is the wish of grandma and your grandpa, please accept it."
