Chapter 390: Uncle’s Plan
The carriage and horses left, people looked west, and I still remember one hundred taels.
The uncle and others looked at the door for a long time and couldn't come to their senses. That was a hundred taels of silver. This prodigal woman from the second family pushed it out as soon as she said it would! If you don’t want it, you can give it to me! I'm so tired, I feel like my heart is bleeding.
However, the eyes of the uncle and aunt soon became more determined!
The imperial examination is such a lucrative path!
Be sure to seize the opportunity this time!
The purpose of uncle Zhu Shouren's visit this time is to take advantage of the fact that Zhu Ping'an became a member of the Hui Yuan Dynasty. Although uncle Zhu Shouren did not come to Zhu Ping'an's house a few days ago, he paid attention to Lu Ping'an in his old house and came to visit one after another. Man, after seeing the county magistrate and the famous people from Anqing Mansion showing up, uncle Zhu Shouren felt hot in his heart.
What a God-given opportunity!
Since the second family can get in touch with the county magistrate and other prominent bosses in Anqing Mansion with the help of Zhu Ping'an's Zhonghui Yuan, then what? Why don't you make good use of it?
The childbirth examination is about to begin again. If the second child persuades Zhu Ping'an to write a letter to Anqing Mansion, wouldn't he be able to gain the reputation of being a scholar easily? !
In addition, I heard that Mr. Zhao Wenhua, the academic officer, admired Zhu Pingan very much. He once wanted to catch him as a son-in-law. If Zhu Pingan could say hello to Mr. Zhao, the academic officer, haha, at least the scholar did not run away, and maybe There are great opportunities to gain fame and success!
It’s just that my nephew Zhu Ping’an looks honest and honest, but is actually as smart as a demon. I haven’t benefited from him yet.
Actually, even if the second brother and the others wrote to Zhu Pingan, Zhu Pingan might not be able to follow the letter.
A more secure way is to use the name of the second family as Zhu Ping'an's parents, and he is also the uncle of Zhu Ping'an. If the second family can take him to visit the county magistrate and Anqing Mansion, Big boss, I believe this trip will be worthwhile.
Thinking of this, uncle Zhu Shouren's eyes turned green when he looked at Father Zhu.
Uh
Brother, what’s going on?
When Father Zhu noticed Zhu Shouren's gaze, he was at a loss.
"Second brother, second younger brother and sister, I have been writing and studying at home recently, and I have never had time. As soon as I learned the news about Xuel Zhonghui Yuan today, I was so ecstatic that I couldn't sit still. Haha, this It is the glory of our Zhu family. Second brother, the second brother and sister are good at raising pigs." Uncle Zhu Shouren touched the beard on his chin, nodded, and said to Zhu's father and Chen with a smile.
Why are you reading books at home all the time! You have been studying at home for twenty or thirty years! Studying and studying are not just to take some time off and avoid work. Also, you said that you just learned about the news about Hui'er's fortune today? Who are you kidding? I saw you looking here from the roof of your old house more than once!
Although he didn't reach out to hit the smiling person, Mrs. Chen still looked at her uncle Zhu Shouren's hypocritical words and rolled her eyes.
“It’s all Shi’er’s own success, we don’t care.” Zhu’s father shook his head and said honestly.
"Why is the second brother so modest? The eldest brother is not blind, even the spirits of the ancestors of our Zhu family can see it. You and the second brother and sister are indispensable for Xie'er to be where he is today step by step. "Uncle Zhu Shouren continued his efforts and said sincerely.
Under the sincere words of his uncle Zhu Shouren, Father Zhu couldn't help but smile on his sunburnt face.
Uncle Zhu Shouren caught Father Zhu's expression in his eyes, and then launched another round of verbal attacks. With the words of Mr. Zhu, Mrs. Zhu and the eldest aunt interspersed, the words spoken by Father Zhu were directly reflected on his face. She couldn't stop smiling. Chen was okay, but she couldn't hide the smile from the corners of her eyes.
"Second brother, I heard that the county magistrate came to our house a few days ago, and the palace magistrate also sent someone to come. Is this possible?"
When the time came, uncle Zhu Shouren explained the purpose of the visit from simple to profound. Shen guided him and said it.
"Yes, when I came, I was so nervous that I didn't know where to put my hands." Father Zhu nodded sincerely, and then told the embarrassing things about himself that made him nervous at that time.
Ms. Chen rolled his eyes when he heard this.
"My second brother has never seen such a battle, so it's understandable. However, with Xie'er being so promising, in the future, my second brother won't have to worry about being timid when he gets used to it." Uncle Zhu Shouren smiled. , comforted Father Zhu.
Father Zhu nodded honestly, and Mrs. Chen also looked happy when he heard that his son had great potential.
"However, my second brother's words reminded me. The officialdom of Shi'er will become bigger and bigger, and our family cannot let Shi'er lose face." Uncle Zhu Shouren's eyes flashed slightly, feeling very sorry for him. Father Zhu said thoughtfully.
"Yes." Father Zhu nodded.
Uncle Zhu Shouren was overjoyed. He looked at Zhu's father warmly and said, "Second brother, in my opinion, it is better for us to choose a day to visit the county magistrate, the palace magistrate and others. Once we come to the county magistrate, The princes of the government have condescended to come to visit our Zhu family. Out of love and etiquette, we should all go to the county. Zun, Fu Zun and others will return visits; secondly, the second brother will be able to see the world and broaden his horizons. In the future, when Xue'er becomes a big official, our Zhu family will not weaken Xue'er's face."
< br>"This." Father Zhu was a little hesitant, but he seemed a little moved.
"Second brother, why do you have any hesitation!" The uncle took advantage of the situation and pushed him.
"It's time for Shouyi to go see the world." Mr. Zhu also spoke.
Hearing what Mr. Zhu said, Father Zhu was about to nod, but Mrs. Chen quietly pinched him hard under the table, pinching Father Zhu into his stomach when he almost blurted out the words of agreement.
“Why do we ordinary people go to work for other people’s official lords? If we have this time, we might as well think about what to plant in the ground. We eat with our own hands. We don’t steal or rob. It's nothing to be ashamed of." Mrs. Chen glared hard at Father Zhu.
“Brothers and sisters, you can’t say that.”
Uncle Zhu Shouren spoke again to persuade. But no matter how his uncle Zhu Shouren tried to persuade him, Mr. Chen would not let go. Father Zhu did not dare to express his position even after Mr. Chen pinched him twice.
"Okay, second brother and sister, we don't speak the same language as the other two families. Let's go to visit the county magistrate and give us some gifts. We're out." When the eldest aunt saw that Mrs. Chen couldn't get in, she He couldn't help but speak hastily, and when he said it, he looked like he was taking advantage of your family.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she looked at her eldest aunt suspiciously, and then glanced at her eldest uncle Zhu Shouren's face, becoming even more suspicious in her heart. You know, the eldest aunt is an iron rooster who doesn't pluck her feathers, and she is actually willing to give gifts. If she says there is nothing in it, Mrs. Chen won't believe it.
Don’t be afraid of opponents who are like gods, but be afraid of teammates who are like pigs. The eldest uncle Zhu Shouren glanced at his eldest aunt with a speechless expression. He really wanted to say something, please go ahead!
In this case, the uncle Zhu Shouren had no choice but to reveal his purpose: "The childbirth examination is about to begin. It is also an opportunity for me and Jun'er to visit the county and government officials. I heard that the childbirth examination is about to begin. Ti Xueguan also has a lot of affection for pigs Appreciate it, this can be said to be the favor given by my ancestors to my Zhu family. Moreover, the officialdom is dangerous and Xi'er is weak alone. Wouldn't it be better if Jun'er and I could help? " (End of chapter)
