Because the distance is relatively long, the magistrate's honor guard of the county magistrate set off first, and then County Magistrate Yang and Chu Ci and Chu Xiaoyuan got on the carriage and headed to Changxi Village.

When they were about to reach the entrance of Changxi Village, the county magistrate got off the carriage, got into a sedan chair, and rang the gong in front to open the road, slowly moving towards the village. Chu Ci and others walked behind.

Chu Xiaoyuan quietly said to Chu Ci: "Uncle, you are really powerful as an official."

"Yes, so you have to study hard in the future to become a high-ranking official and let everyone see your majestic side." Chu Ci touched his little head.

Chu Xiaoyuan nodded: "Well, I will study hard. The Master praised me yesterday and said that I can recite the book quickly!"

"Do you praise you for being too much or Yu'er for being too much?" Chu Ci asked casually.

“…”

Chu Xiaoyuan pouted, uncle really doesn’t know how to chat!

"Crack, crackle, crackle", the sound of firecrackers kept ringing. After the ground was filled with red flowers, the county magistrate slowly got out of the sedan chair.

He was wearing a mandarin duck replenishment, and his whole body was shocked by the people.

"Welcome to the old parents!" The mayor of Ping'an Town led the village chief and the elders in the village to salute.

"Dear all the elders and elders, I am here to congratulate you. Changxi Village has a virtuous and upright person, and the village style is evident. This official has ordered people to make a archway, and then stand at the entrance of the village to offer sacrifices.

Those who come and go to see you.”

"Thank you, my parents! If you hadn't been good at governing, what kind of virtue is our village? You can have such a talent!" said the old man in the village. Every time he said something, his body trembled, and Chu Ci was very worried about him.

A few more words are about to pile up on the ground.

County Magistrate Yang obviously had this concern, so he comforted the old man a few words, and then asked them to sit on a bench not far away.

"Please give me a plaque!"

Two yamen with big swords on their waists looked solemn, and they worked together to lift the plaque shrouded under the red cloth.

"Siucai Chu, this is given to you, so you can personally unveil the plaque."

"The old parents are willing to accept the students' request, and I hope the old parents can agree." Chu Ci said.

"Tell me." County Magistrate Yang looked at him with kindness. He had already found out yesterday that he had hoped to be promoted after the New Year, and he was not allowed to offer this treasure now.

"The student was born to her mother's suffering from ten months of pregnancy. I have been educated by her since childhood and have benefited a lot. Moreover, my parents' kindness is really unrequited. Therefore, the student wants to ask her mother to unveil this plaque and ask her parents to fulfill her wishes.

.”

"A filial son! My dynasty has always ruled the world with kindness and filial piety. Your filial piety is commendable. How could I be that evil person? Go and invite Xiucai's mother."

As soon as the county magistrate gave the order, someone immediately went to invite him. A group of people surrounded Chu's mother, who was at a loss. When Chu's mother saw the master wearing official uniform, she was so scared that her legs became weak and almost fell to the ground.

"Mom!" Chu Ci took a few steps, then knelt down in front of her and kowtowed three times. "The child has been studying for many years, and his mother and brother and sister-in-law are worried day and night. Today, the child has received this honor, so I also asked my mother to unveil the plaque with me.

.”

"Waiter, get up quickly." Chu's mother was moved and she burst into tears, "Mom promised you."

The others were also very moved. This picture of a kind mother, a filial son, was what the elders all hoped to see.

Chu Ci and Chu's mother stood aside, and at the same time reached out and pulled off the red cloth covering the plaque. In an instant, four large words with golden light appeared in front of people. Under the sunlight, the light seemed to be stronger, making people feel uncomfortable.

Dare to look directly.

The yamen carried the plaque around the village. The villagers looked outside the doors of each house, and when they were carried outside the doors, they knelt down to greet the county magistrate.

Finally, they came to the ancestral hall.

Chu's father's tablet was placed in the middle at this time. Chu Ci, Chu Guang and Chu Xiaoyuan lit incense and worshipped him before he welcomed the plaque.

County Magistrate Yang stood above and read a text, and then gave Chu Ci a brand new flying fish suit and twenty taels of silver. Chu Ci immediately stated that he would donate the twenty taels to the village and let the village use it as a repair hall.

and incense money dedicated to elders.

In the past, the elders in this ancestral hall could only receive some incense during festivals. There was no one to take care of them on weekdays, and the rural people were not so particular. However, after this plaque was hung in, incense must be supplied every day to show respect.

Let the elders enjoy the happiness as well. Not to mention the extra twenty taels of silver, it can be used for at least four or five years.

The plaque was hung on the beam in the middle. The moment it was hung, it seemed as if the entire ancestral hall had become different.

The village chief led everyone to bow and worship. From then on, the ancestral hall would have a name, so it was called Xianliang Temple.

The women in the village gathered together to set up a few tables of good wine and food to entertain the people in the county. County Magistrate Yang was interested in promoting it, so he said that the county government is short of staff now, and asked Chu Ci if he intends to recommend people to be a garage.

The warehouse is not just guarding the warehouse, occasionally running errands, five cents of silver per month, and there is no shortage of filial piety in all seasons. There is often oil and water to fish. You can get twenty or thirty taels a year, which is more worthwhile than farming.

many.

When Chu Ci heard what he said, he remembered a suitable person. His elder brother is generous and not good at speaking, and is not suitable for going to the county government to do things. Otherwise, he would not know what was going on the blame for others one day.

But his uncle is different. He has been guarding the gate of the town for many years and has long been practicing the skills of talking to people and talking to ghosts. After more than ten years of hard work, he has already figured out some twists and turns.

He would never easily obey other people's words. Moreover, although his uncle is a little worldly, his conscience is still good. There is someone in the yamen, so it will be more convenient for him to do anything in the future.

So Chu Ci smiled and recommended his uncle to Yang County Magistrate. Yang County Magistrate didn't care who went there. As long as Chu Ci spoke, the face would be sold to him. He gave a few instructions to the master sitting on his right hand.

The master immediately went to the mayor's table and handled the matter within a moment.

After lunch, Yang County Magistrate and the others rushed back. Chu Ci approved the mountain leader and could stay at home for two days before going back. He entrusted Zhongliyu to Zhang Wenhai and others because there were still some things at home that needed to be solved urgently.

"Mom, brother, sister-in-law, these are five hundred taels of silver notes, which I got from selling books."

"What...what? There are so many?" The Chu family felt that it was too exciting. A few days ago, he got back a house deed and a land deed, and now he has got back another 500 taels of silver notes. Could it be that they haven't been out for too long?

Is the money outside now not as valuable as before?

"Yes, I didn't expect that so many copies were printed. I guess people from other counties have also bought them." He still only withdrew a few points and found that there were so many exercises in ancient times. It seems that the practice questions in ancient times are really very

Best-selling!

"Put this money, when you and Xiaoyuan go to Beijing for the exam, we will hire an escort agency to protect you." Chu Guang said,

"No, brother, this money is used to repair the house."

"Even if you are like a village chief, it only takes seventy or eighty taels. All the other money will be put away." Chu Guang corrected.

"Uh, brother, I think our house seems to have to be built bigger. I will take the imperial examination this year. When I pass, I will have to invite classmates from the academy and villagers to have a good meal for a few days.

The yard is smaller, and it may not look good at that time. And Xiaoyuan is getting older, so he will have many friends in the Mengtong Pavilion where he studied in the county, so he will inevitably invite others to come to play at home."

After hearing Chu Ci's words, Chu Guang hesitated. Indeed, when he was a scholar at the waiter-second middle school, their family was poor and made it simple, and no one would pick on it. After the waiter-second middle school graduated from the juren, the family would still look shabby.

, I'm afraid it will cause the waiter to be looked down upon by others.

"Then build a big house! I will go and discuss with the village chief tomorrow to buy the land behind our house."

"Brother, please buy the small hill bag connected to the back of the land. Then plant the flowers and plants in the four seasons there, and the layout is more elegant. No matter when you walk in, you will think it will be very beautiful." Chu

The romantic moments of the literati-like philosophical romance are bursting.

When he was reading the Peach Blossom Land, he often fantasized that he could have such a piece of land.

Chu’s mother and Chu Guang looked at each other and felt that their waiter was a bit of a waste. She actually bought a mountain bag to grow flowers and plants? Isn’t it more affordable to grow some vegetables and raise some chickens and ducks?

In the afternoon, the villagers brought things to the Chu family to congratulate him. After waves of people, the small yard of the Chu family was filled with the small yard. Chu Guang then felt that what the waiter said made sense, the house

It must be cultivated a little bigger.

"Oh, I used to say that our A Ci is a strong man, and his appearance and temperament are different from us. So, he actually received praise from the court, which is really promising."

The voice of Chu Ci's uncle came from afar. When the villagers saw the guests coming to the door, they didn't say much, put down their things and said, and left.

Aunt Chu smiled at everyone and went to the kitchen to help Chu's mother.

"Uncle, you're here just in time. I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter? As long as you speak, my uncle will do it for you. I've told you a long time ago that I'm there and I know all the people with great reputation."

"Haha, that's exactly what happened. Today, when I was having dinner with my old parents, he suddenly said that there was a lack of a warehouse in the yamen and wanted me to recommend someone. I originally wanted to recommend my brother, but my sister-in-law was pregnant and it was not long before long

I was about to give birth, and the family had just built a land and couldn't leave for a while. I recommended you to him, my uncle. If nothing unexpected happens, they will notify you when you go to the town tomorrow."

"Oh, oh, it's extremely! Oh, your elder brother really can't go. Your sister-in-law has such a big belly, so it's better to rest at home. By the way, your mother is in poor health. I'll let your aunt go back when she's about to give birth.

You can rest assured if you come to help with cooking for a few months."

Uncle Chu was so happy that he didn't know what to do.

He thought for a while and said, "Aci, you recommended your uncle to the county government office, and I don't know how to repay you. I just don't know whether those people in the county government are easy to get along with. What if I commit crimes in it?

, Not only did you not repay you, but it would be bad if you caused you trouble."

Chu Ci laughed. This uncle has so many intrigues. He just needs to ask about the situation in the county government, but he also needs to put his name on it.

"It's okay, uncle, just go there with the courage. Old parents are the most lenient and kind, and will not sit idly by and watch them bully their lives."

"I feel relieved when you say this. By the way, He Yi is on your aunt, I'll get it." He got up and hurried to the kitchen.

Chu Guang and Chu Ci brothers smiled. They saw him holding a red seal in his hand just now, so why did they go to his aunt's place in a blink of an eye? I thought Chu Ci was so affordable, and he thought the original He Yi was lighter and went there secretly

Have a little extra money.

Sure enough, after a while, Uncle Chu took out a He Yi and packed two taels of silver in it. He probably stuffed all the money he had on him.

"A Ci, congratulations on you. Today I am awarded this honor. I hope you will be on the list of honors in the provincial examination in the future and will be on the yellow league for the best results."
