Chapter 796: From Fifth Rank Magistrate
It's a pity that since this girl came back, she has not reported the good news but not the bad news, and has never told the story of her and Xiao Wu's assassination. Ye Yan) Bai Yunxi sighed inwardly, Wenyou didn't say anything, she thought her worries were unfounded. If they hadn't heard Xiao Wu's inner voice, they wouldn't have known that the two of them had gone through a dangerous journey.
Thinking of Jin Hong's fellow, Bai Yunxi's heart moved. That guy could be greedy and replace Lao Juren. He must be even more impoverished than Lao Juren. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so ridiculous.
Is there someone else behind him? Or has he cultivated his own manpower and expanded his power in the past few years in office?
It seems that this opponent cannot be underestimated and must be taken seriously to avoid being caught one day. If she stumbles twice in a row, she doesn't need to lose her face.
With this idea popping up in his mind, Bai Yunxi looked at Wenyou's eyes, filled with gratitude.
She protected Xiaowu's smooth entry into Beijing and won the first prize in the new subject. Jin Hong was probably going to be upset to death. If he hadn't underestimated the enemy and thought there was no way for them to make a comeback, he would have simply ignored them.
Now that their family has grown up, the county magistrate of Jinhong District has no power to compete.
Seeing Bai Yunxi's grateful eyes, Wenyou smiled. Over the years in the Bai family, she had already regarded these people as relatives.
The family has not seen each other for several months, and it is inevitable to ask each other about the situation. Seeing Xiao Wu being surrounded by his brothers and sisters asking questions, Bai Yunxi directly pulled Zhang Yishan and looked at the little girl's exquisite facial features. He liked it very much.
"I haven't seen you for a while. Your face is a little thinner. Is it because it's too hot or because your mother assigned you too much work? Are you tired?"
Listening to Bai Yunxi's inquiry, Zhang Yishan pouted,
"Aunt Bai was right. She had both. The weather was hot and I had little appetite. But my mother not only made me learn the rules and etiquette again, but also gave me all the money in the family. She said it was because she was old. I have a bad memory, so I need to take a good rest... Ever since my mother gave me the care of the middle child, she has really become a hands-off shopkeeper. "
"Besides, no matter what I did was right or wrong, I never intervened. I really just didn't care."
She knew that her mother was trying to train her, but she had quit since then. I actually found new fun again, taking my mother-in-law out from time to time to buy things, make tea, and all kinds of things. He also brought the finished product to her for tasting, and then took the box to the college to find her father.
It had always been her job to deliver food to her father, but now her mother had taken over it directly. She ran between the college and home every day, and she was very busy and looked at it with great interest.
On the other hand, she was as busy as a spinning top every day. She was responsible for dealing with people at home and in the shop, going out to banquets, and being guests. If Junior Brother Xiaowu hadn't returned and allowed her to take advantage of the situation, she might not have been able to escape.
Listening to Zhang Yishan's inner voice, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but tremble at the corner of her mouth. Although this girl looked weird, she was no match for Zhang Yiren. She must have been tricked by her mother.
After thinking about it, Bai Yunxi patted her hand and said, "It must be because you have done so well that no one can fault you. Your mother will not ignore you."
In the blink of an eye, this girl is now sixteen years old. Once girls get hair extensions, it is time to talk about marriage. Sister Shan is the only child in the family, and it is rare that she has been left without any marriage until now.
Of course, given the information Zhang Yiren had previously revealed, Xiaowu was attracted to her, so there was no need to worry.
But as the girl's parents, it is also a compulsory course to teach her daughter to be knowledgeable, sensible, virtuous and capable. Otherwise, once a daughter gets married, if she does not know how to take care of the middle child, she will either be disliked by her husband's family or bullied by her sisters-in-law. Either way, the mother will not be happy to see it.
Therefore, she understood very well that Zhang Yiren would say a few words every time he saw her, that her daughter was disobedient and did not want to learn rules.
She also said that her daughter was spoiled by her husband and she would never do anything like this in the future.
Every time she hears this, Bai Yunxi always smiles and says that children are still young and will be more lively and active to be liked by others. It is equivalent to her, a prospective mother-in-law, speaking directly without having Zhang Yishan learn the rules. She doesn't mind it anyway.
Now Zhang Yiren lets her daughter come back to play with Xiao Wu, and her attitude has been clearly revealed. Later, she would have to ask Mrs. Liu to go to Zhang's house and reveal her intention to propose marriage to Zhang Yiren, so that she could be mentally prepared.
Now that Xiao Wu is back, their marriage should be put on the agenda.
The family lively asked Xiaowu many questions, especially about things in Kyoto. Everyone was very curious. They said that under the emperor's feet, the powerful and powerful gathered together, and if a brick fell, it could hit the two princes.
Listening to their incoherent questions, Xiao Wu twitched his lips, "It's not as exaggerated as what you said. Kyoto is just more prosperous than the county town. As for everything else, it's almost the same."
"So that's it. By the way, fifth brother, have you seen the princess? Does she look like a fairy?"
As soon as these words came out, several people turned their eyes to Xiao Wu again, staring at him curiously.
"During the Qionglin banquet, I saw the princess's phoenix carriage from a distance, and there were a lot of palace maids and maids. I couldn't see the princess herself at all, only her complicated palace clothes. Anyway, they are all girls who have been raised and raised. "
We are all human beings, apart from what we wear and what we wear, what difference can there be?
Several people listened to Xiao Wu's tone and blinked. It made sense when they thought about it. As a royal princess, she would naturally be surrounded by people and surrounded by stars. As for the rest, there should be no difference.
Seeing that they lost interest in asking, Bai Yunxi smiled and shook his head, asking his daughter to take Zhang Yishan to wash up briefly. I followed Xiaowu on the road early in the morning, so I had to pack up and take a rest.
When Xiaowu was left alone, Bai Yunxi pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down and talk. You have won the first place in the imperial examination. The government allows you to return home to visit your relatives. After that, will you be assigned?"
Listening to his mother's question, Xiaowu smiled and said, "I am preparing to report to you that the government has appointed my son as the governor of Henan Prefecture, a fifth-rank official position, and he will take office in three months."
It has been nearly a month on the road, and there are only a little more than two months left.
Hearing Xiaowu's tone, Bai Yunxi was stunned and looked at Xiaowu in surprise,
"So high?"
She thought that a champion like Xiaowu, who came from a poor family, would at most be assigned as a county magistrate, but he was suddenly given the position of governor. His starting point is not ordinary high.
"Mother, you don't know that because the official position assigned by the government is high, not only was my son shocked, but Senior Brother Zhao was also worried, so he asked someone to inquire about it. Later, he told me that the government originally wanted me to join the Imperial Academy, but later, for some reason, he suddenly changed his mind and sent his son out. Senior Brother Zhao told me to work hard, and in three years, I would definitely be transferred back to Beijing by the government to take up a position."
