Chapter 593

"Hey, this is the restaurant opened by Da Ya's family, but it's really impressive." Village Chief He's family was the first to come to congratulate him besides Gu Jinli's family.

He woke up the whole family before dawn, and after a hasty breakfast, he asked He Tongsheng to go to the village to watch. When he saw Gu Dashan's family leaving the village, he brought the whole family with him.

He Tongsheng was very depressed because of this, and complained: "Grandpa will only assign me. Today is the winter solstice, and I am so cold to death. If I get sick from the cold, will you always feel sorry for me?"

Village Chief He hehe: "I don't feel sorry for you. You are so poor at school. It is impossible for you to shine in this life. It depends on your elder brother. He can't be sick. He will have to take the county exam in February next year."

He Tongsheng was about to cry, his master's heart was too biased.

Fortunately, He Jinsheng loved his younger brother, and comforted He Tongsheng: "Big brother is useless, he will only study hard in this life, and the family lives so smoothly with the help of Tongsheng."

He Tongsheng immediately became happy and felt that he was very useful.

Village head He didn't have time to listen to the two brothers boasting each other, and told He Dacang's daughter-in-law: "Take good care of your mother at home, remember to follow what Xiaoyu girl said, help your mother up and walk for half an hour, you can't watch the cold weather Just be lazy, this is related to your mother's life."

Village head He has a daughter-in-law, but his old wife is not in good health, lying in bed for ten months a year, and has been so sick for many years.

Gu Jinli originally didn't want to take care of the affairs of Village Chief He's family, but after Village Chief He stood on their side, he gave him an idea, asking him to help the village chief's grandmother up and walk around more, without being completely paralyzed , It means that the heart and lungs are weak and the muscles are weak. If you move around more, you will not get bedsores.

After the village head explained He Dacang's daughter-in-law, he said a few words to the old wife, and then yelled at He Dacang: "Is Dacang all right? Is it a man who is whimpering? Hurry up and leave, we can't let that bastard Lu Gensheng grab us in front of the house."

"Here we come." He Dacang's family rented a mule cart to do business, and today they went to town in a mule cart, so Gu Jinli's family followed after they arrived not long after.

The third grandfather heard Village Chief He's voice, and took Qi Panzi and Qi Kangping to meet Village Chief He: "The village chief is here, please go upstairs, there are three private rooms upstairs for you and Shangli." Chang and Shang Xiucai sat there."

Hearing this, Village Chief He felt that he had a special reputation, and he laughed so hard that his old teeth almost fell out: "That's good, let's go up and sit down."

He also asked He Jinsheng to hand over the gift: "Third Grandpa, Uncle Qi, Brother Qi, this is a gift. I wish your restaurant a prosperous business and good fortune."

Village head He listened beautifully. Look at his grandson, he is very good at talking, and he uses good words one after another. He is worthy of being a scholar.

Qi Kangping accepted the congratulatory gift and found that Village Chief He was generous. This time the congratulatory gift included not only cloth and live chickens, but also a red envelope of one tael of silver.

Village head He is bleeding heavily this time, and he wants to compare the Lu family and show the girl of the Gu family that the one with the surname He in the village is the closest to them.

The third grandfather brought Village Chief He to the private room, and the waiter immediately served a table of breakfast, but it was a pity that the kid from the Lu family came. Those who signed the contract have to work hard, and can't tell the story of Yanfulou, if they tell, they will be sent to jail."

Finally, he deliberately said: "Don't learn from Lu Zhudan's family!"

Lu Gensheng's eldest grandson had already been told by his grandfather that he would embarrass them with the temper of the village chief, and let him bear with it, so that he would not be so angry that he lost his job. It's a hundred dollars, and the wages can be raised in the future.

Therefore, Lu Gensheng's grandson said with a smile: "Yes, I remember it, the village chief will take it easy."

Village head He hit a soft nail and was very bored, so he had to give up.

When the sun rose and the earth warmed up, all the families came. After helping with the work for more than half an hour, more people came to congratulate.

Shang Lichang, Shang Xiucai, Mr. Xia, the scribes and servants of Silifang, and people from Xuanhufang all came.

Before the auspicious time, Qin Sanlang and Luo Wu came with Jiang Jiao, along with Zou Jiang, Xu Dexian, Master Tian and Master Zheng.

Mr. Zheng came to give the congratulatory gift on behalf of Zheng county magistrate.

The county magistrate of Zheng is from the Zheng family, and the news of the encirclement of the water bandits was only learned by the Gu family. Because of this incident, the Zheng family can be regarded as showing their face in the capital, and their status has improved a lot.

County Magistrate Xu was kind to the Gu family. After hearing that County Magistrate Xu sent someone to give gifts to Yanfu Building, County Magistrate Zheng thought it would be better to sell them, so he also asked the master to give gifts.

Qi Panzi didn't expect that the two adults of the county government would send someone to give congratulatory gifts, so he was so happy that he hurried out with his two sons to greet him.

Gu Dashan and Gu Jinan also came out.

When Master Zheng saw Gu Jin'an, he was really shocked when he saw that he didn't look like a farmer, but looked like a nobleman.It seems that the Gu family's upbringing is good, otherwise it would be impossible to raise such a son.

"Brother Xu, Mr. Jiang, Master Tian, ​​you are here, please come in quickly." Gu Jinan said to Master Zheng again: "Brother An pays respects to Master Zheng."

Master Zheng was even more happy to see that Gu Jinan was well-mannered, and asked the servants accompanying him to hand over the congratulatory gifts, and then followed him to the private room upstairs.

Talking to Gu Jinan during the dinner, I found that this young man is really good and can work, unlike some peasant scholars who start pretending to be masters after reading a few books and stop working, but Gu Jinan and that Gu Dexing are doing their own things. kind of work.

Not bad.

As for Zou Jiang's coming, he came here specifically to thank Gu Jinli.

He avoided people, and under the leadership of Qin Sanlang, he met Gu Jinli: "Little girl, thank you, old man. If it weren't for you and Sanlang, I might have been played by Zou Youlian for the rest of my life, and it would be impossible to avenge my family. I remember this kindness." After you live here, if you ask anything that is useful in the future, this old man will definitely repay you."

Saying that, he bowed to Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli said: "Mr. Jiang doesn't need to be like this. The collapse of the Zou family is also good for our family. Otherwise, with the temperament of the Zou family and his son, they will definitely try to destroy our family. So this matter is a win-win situation, and no one needs to use it." Thanks to whom."

After hearing this, Zou Jiang laughed out loud: "San Lang is right, you are a very interesting little girl, but in the eyes of this old man, you are not only interesting, but you can also see clearly and live a very realistic life."

If he could live like Gu Jinli, he wouldn't be decadent for decades, and he wouldn't be teased by Zou Youlian for a lifetime because of a kindness.

Realistic people, living for themselves, can jump out of many unnecessary mundane things.

After Zou Jiang thanked Gu Jinli, he went back to the private room upstairs and had dinner with Master Zheng and the others.During the period, I met Mr. Xia, and was impressed by Mr. Xia's literary talent, and said that it was not a loss.

In the backyard, in the side room where the water chestnut powder was placed, Gu Jinli asked Qin Sanlang, "I heard that Mr. Jiang will take up the post with the county magistrate Xu?"

Qin Sanlang nodded: "Well, this is Ming Shaoqing's intention. Zou Jiang is also willing to follow the family of County Magistrate Xu, and he will have no worries in his later years."

Gu Jinli thought of Xu Dexian: "Xu County Magistrate's son is a loyal man, and he will definitely treat Mr. Jiang well, so you don't have to worry about it in the future."

Qin Sanlang laughed, but actually he was also worried. County Magistrate Xu was a fisherman in troubled waters, and he had to rely on Zou Jiang when he went to the capital. Zou Jiang followed County Magistrate Xu, and what he had to do was not easy at all.

However, Zou Jiang would feel very at ease. After all, the Xu family was benevolent and warm, while the Zou family was a pit of blood, and nothing they did was human affairs.
