Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 502; The difference between the royal family and the Li family
Chapter five hundred and fourth; The royal family's mission and Li's mission
"By the way, has anything else happened in the past few days, besides those who escaped?"

"Patriarch Hui, according to what you have told me, the public losers and Liu Da's housekeepers are not accepted into Li's household registration.

But Manager Liu was very unhappy. He went to my house to quarrel three times, but I dared not agree to him. The Gongshu family also came to make trouble twice.
According to your explanation, the patriarch, the villain said that they will become officials in the future, but the two families that I provoked now see fire in my eyes, and say that I deliberately made things difficult for them and used some nonsense to fool them , What a conscience, I said everything according to what the patriarch told me. "

Li Yu just sat down and picked up the chopsticks, but immediately put them down again after hearing this;
"What's going on? Didn't I tell you clearly a few days in advance? You didn't explain the reason to the two of them?"

Steward Ji's Chinese character face is almost deformed;
"Patriarch Hui, to be clear, what the villain said is what you told me, but Manager Liu said that I was deliberately finding fault with him, and that being an official is not just anyone who wants to, saying that I still hold grudges for six years. He quarreled with him about those things before, so this time he deliberately made things difficult for the Liu family?

In the end, Manager Liu said that except for his second son, all the remaining 28 members of the Liu family had to register for household registration.
He also said that he had already discussed it with the old uncle of the Lin family, and the Lin family agreed, saying that I was not qualified to stop him, but the old man of the Liu family was even more irritable and more difficult to deal with than Mr. Liu.
The old man just went to my house and made a fuss for a long time, saying that if he doesn’t give them household registration today, he will come to burn my house tonight, look at it, patriarch, is this simply unreasonable..."

Li Yu looked at Steward Ji strangely, and then at Mrs. Liu beside her, who was quite speechless;

"This is really strange, my lady, do you know why there are still people rushing to register as servants?"

Mrs. Liu responded immediately when she saw the question;
"My lord, this is a common thing. It has only been peaceful for a few years now? It's only two or three years. Not to mention the fact that it is difficult to survive in the chaos of war and horses. Let's just say that the common people plow the fields and rely on the sky for food. God is in a good mood and the harvest is good. If you are in a bad mood, it will be a year of disaster, a year of famine.

Didn't you also say that prosperity is suffering for the people, and death is suffering for the people?Since ancient times, it has been the common people who have suffered. Look at that girl Han Yingxiang, who was bullied by the children of the family. If you hadn't given her support, and if it hadn't been for our Li family's second wife as a backer, their family would have been able to fight against the family with five surnames and seven Wangs. Gatekeeper?

Besides, the widow from before, if the previous patriarch hadn't avenged her, wouldn't she have died in vain?

And Mr. Lang, seeing that the famine is coming again this year, I'm afraid... Alas, it's right to rely on the big family. It's not easy to live alone. How many people are envious of Liu Daguan sitting in the position of the big steward?

Aren't the servants and maids in the Liu family arranged by the mansion?If he leaves our second room of Li's family, what will happen to him when he gets old?What about after retreating?
Their Liu family immediately became ordinary people. If they go back to the mountains to farm for a living in the future, I'm afraid their family is so delicate that they can't even grow a single piece of land!
After entering Li's household registration, Liu Daguan can pass on the position of chief steward to his eldest son, and there will be people serving him from generation to generation without worrying about food and clothing.

In fact, whether or not to enter the household registration is the same for the Liu family and the public losers. Even if they do not enter our household registration, their lives are no different from those of the Li clan, but they can be justified immediately after entering the household registration. Rich, he knows this better than anyone else! "

Li Yu nodded. He had to admit the cruelty of this era. It is indeed much more difficult to survive than the later generations. Many people do not have high requirements. They just need to eat three meals a day. However, this simple meal is not something every household can afford. did it...

"Well! What the lady said makes sense, but what about the public losers? Didn't I tell you that I will arrange jobs for them in the Ministry of Industry in the future? Don't dare to say anything else, arrange for those skilled craftsmen in their family I can still do some eighth-rank and ninth-rank positions, so why is their family making trouble?"

"Patriarch Hui, I've made it clear, but it's okay if I don't say it. When the patriarch says that you want to arrange for the public losers to become officials, the Gongshu family will become even more troubled.

The father-in-law of the public loser and dozens of people who were the public loser were sitting at my house early in the morning. Only then did he escape and return to the mansion to report.

Patriarch, I don’t think it’s easy to fool these two families. This morning, the eldest son of the father-in-law Gongshu came to question me personally, saying that they should have worked hard if they didn’t have any credit. What's the point of leaving them aside now that the public losers should come first?He also said that I deliberately bullied their public losers, this... this... oh...!
Patriarch, you know me. I have never bullied any family. It is really heartwarming to have such a big shit bowl on my head. "

Seeing that Manager Ji was wronged, Li Yu quickly comforted him;
"How is it possible? I know you best. I have never quarreled with anyone. You are the most kind and helpful. Don't take it to heart. The father-in-law of the public loser has never spoken?"

"Yes, the patriarch. He didn't say a word from the beginning to the end. The father-in-law Gongshu is the number one manager in charge of the construction. I didn't dare to neglect, and I arranged for the maids to serve in a proper manner, but the manager Gongshu just kept a cold face. No one cares about..."

Li Yu scratched his head depressedly and then tapped on the table;

"In this way, go back and explain to the public losers the matter of becoming an official and going to the Ministry of Industry."

Ji Da steward immediately said with a sad face;
"Patriarch, I've said it several times. The eldest son of Gongshu Daguan doesn't want to hear a word at all."

"Listen to me, you can explain it one last time, if the public loser insists, then register for them. By the way, they didn't say which surname they will go to?"

"Patriarch Hui, he said he was going to the Zou surname."

"Yeah. That's a good relationship. The father-in-law of Gongshu is just right to be the elder of the first family. However, the Gongshu family has great power. It may not be appropriate to be an elder under someone else. Let's arrange for them to have their own surname. The father-in-law is the head of the family."

"The patriarch, where is Manager Liu?"

"Except for Uncle Liu's second son, all of them will register for household registration. Didn't Uncle Liu agree to go to the Lin family? As long as the Lin family's household registration is accepted, you can register for them, but let's talk about the ugly things first, and want to become an official in the future." An official or a general? Don't complain!"

Li Yu resolved Ji Da's most troublesome matter with one hammer, but Ji Laoshi was so happy that he immediately had a smile on his face;

"Follow the master's order, I'll go back to deal with it, and quickly send these two plague gods away. I can't take it anymore. Yesterday, the loser came to my house with more than 30 clansmen. They ate and drank at my house all day, making my house go crazy. Jump, Aye, who is in charge of Liu Da, can come to quarrel two or three times a day, but he tosses me..."

"Hahahaha, then you should go back quickly. After you deal with this disturbing matter, you can calm down and have a meal."

"Yes, yes, patriarch, then I will retire."

"allow."

"The villain please resign."

Steward Ji walked out of the mansion happily. This time he was no longer afraid. With his followers, Steward Ji easily entered his yard. Everyone was eating in the main hall. Steward Ji came directly to In front of Gongshu Ban, he bowed his hands in salute.

"The father-in-law invited me."

"Master Ji doesn't have to be so polite, but please sit down."

"Thank you."

Steward Ji sat down beside Gongshuban, pondering in his heart;
"A large group of you have come to my house to eat and drink for two days, and this will make me look like a visiting guest. This whole thing..."

The eldest son of the Gongshu class was going to inherit the position of the head of the Gongshu family, and he was already in his early forties. When he saw the chief steward in charge of the household registration, he immediately put down the bowl and chopsticks and cupped his hands;
"The chief steward invited me. It's not good to ask the chief steward. I don't know if you went to the mansion, but you can explain clearly about the household registration of Zou's surname in our public loser's family. I don't know how Mr. Lang explained to you?"

Steward Ji said directly to Gongshuban;
"Oh! Of course, Mr. Lang has something to say. But I still want to keep the ugly words in my head. You can go to the household registration, but you can go to the household registration of our Li family. The father-in-law, the Gongshu family, wants to become an official and go to the Ministry of Industry in the future. , I'm afraid it will be difficult to handle, and my father-in-law will have to think about it again."

Gongshu Pan looked at the courtyard outside the main hall, and his voice was calm and powerful;

"The royal family also has five surnames and Qiwang, and they are also from the Li family. They are also aristocrats in Longxi. Although it is more beautiful to work as an errand in the Ministry of Industry, it is the same as working as an errand in our second room in my eyes. There is no difference.

If you have to say something different, the old man thinks that if you go to the Ministry of Industry to work for the Royal Li family, you will be squeezed out by a group of officials from the Ministry of Industry, and you want to be in power alone in some construction matters?That is an idiot's dream.

The old man is in charge of all the affairs of the construction of our second room. He responds to every call and responds to thousands of responses. He is also a big manager. He is extremely honorable in our second room of Li's. Isn't it a fool to sit on the bench?
It is enough for Ji Daguan to just finish his sentence. The old man needs an accurate statement today. If the big steward still does not agree to register the household registration of my Gongshu family, I will go to the mansion to meet the patriarch in person in a while. "

"Oh my father-in-law, don't be in a hurry. I didn't say that I won't do it, either. Don't worry. Now that I've said everything clearly, I'll take care of it now."

Gongshuban raised his hands with a blank expression;

"Then it's up to Mr. Lao Ji to take care of it."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Steward Ji is also suffering in his heart and can't tell, come on, the public loser is obviously disgusting with himself, and he must think that he is making trouble this time...

"Come here. Take another blank household registration booklet. The patriarch has an order. The Gongshu family has its own surname as Li's Second Household No. 20. After finishing the work of the Gongshu family, we will have dinner."

"only!"

The two capable second stewards under Ji Da steward immediately took the largest blank book on the table and took it over with both hands.

Steward Ji personally picked up the brush and wrote the name of the public loser class on the first page, and then wrote clearly the information brought by the public loser, where he was born, etc., after finishing writing, he blew it clean and handed it to the public loser class The eldest son checks.

Dozens of people from the Gongshu family heard that their family had their own surname, and that the patriarch would be the head of a family with the same surname in the future. Everyone was smiling, and even Gongshuban himself relaxed.

The eldest son, the second son, and the third son of Gongshuban gathered together to read and understood that there was not a single word wrong, so they held it in front of Gongshuban.

"Report to Aye, it's up. It's all clearly written."

"Well, the old man saw it."

The third son of Gongshu Ban hurried over to answer the conversation;
"Aye, it's good for our public losers to have their own surname, but compared with the other twenty major surnames, the population of our public losers is too small, isn't it?"

Gongshu Pan glared at his youngest son;
"What are you panicking about? Don't worry. First, bring our population booklet and submit it to Steward Ji for registration. We'll talk about the rest when we go back. Aren't you ashamed to disturb Steward Ji for two days?"

"It's Aye."

The eldest son of Gongshuban immediately took out a book that he had prepared a long time ago from his arms;
"Reporting to the chief steward, all the people of our public losers, old and young, are here."

"it is good."

Steward Ji took the book, checked a few pages briefly, and found that it was written in great detail. There are more than 40 households in the public losers, and the population of each family is clearly recorded in it. Steward Ji took the book in his hand. Hand it over to two second stewards.

"My father-in-law's book is really detailed. With this, we can just write it into our Li's household registration. Don't eat it, and let's settle the matter of the public loser."

"It's the big steward."

The two second stewards wrote on the table by themselves, and Gongshuban stroked his beard and sat beside him to check for himself, for fear of missing any one. When the registration was finally completed, steward Ji took out his seal and stamped it, and then opened it again. A wooden box was taken out and stamped with the seal of Li's Second Household.Only then did all the household registration books of the public losers be put into the warehouse.

So far, the people from the Gongshu family are finally satisfied. From now on, they don’t have to worry about their enemies finding them, let alone worry about running around, running away, or running out of food. Gongshu Ban smiled and bowed his hands to Manager Ji;

"Thank you, Chief Steward, for your convenience. Since yesterday, we have been bothering you a lot. Please, Chief Steward, Haihan Haihan, don't bother with public losers."

Seeing that the parents of Gongshu, whom the Patriarch relied on so much, spoke very politely, Ji Da's steward also went downhill;

"It should be. From now on, no matter the Ji family or the public loser, they are all members of the same family. My father-in-law doesn't have to be so polite. We can do whatever we want."

"Okay. How dare you disobey the chief steward? Since we are all a family, the old man doesn't say polite words. There is one more thing I want to remind the chief steward. I wonder if I can tell him face to face?"

"My father-in-law, it's okay to say."

"Okay, excuse me for a few words, that Manager Liu, who is in charge of the guards in the mansion... the affairs of their family have been dragging on for two days,
The old man looked at Steward Liu as if his patience had reached the limit, Steward Ji should not push it away, otherwise the two of you will be unhappy, it is really not beautiful!

I also said a few more words with my mouth itchy, as long as the chief steward knows it well, in the past, when the chief steward Liu was working under General Qin, he was known as a fierce lion, and he was a member of the fierce general.
Although I have suppressed my temper a lot after these many years, but it was killed on the battlefield after all, if the chief steward can be accommodating, please let me go, I really don't want to look at you two..."

We are all smart people, so there is no need to talk too much, so Gongshuban is closed, Ji Da is not a vegetarian, and he knows it very well, but it is not because he is afraid of the Liu family, whoever comes from Longxi is afraid of who will come, just They are all members of the Li family. It is always bad to be too rigid, especially this matter is not within their control.

"My father-in-law doesn't know, it's not that I'm going to get stuck, it's because the gentleman has something to say, thinking that the future husband of the Liu family will become an official, that's why he doesn't let go, it's not because I'm making things difficult on purpose. .”

Gongshuban smiled and said;

"Why doesn't the big manager think about it? Maybe he doesn't want to be an official? Serving as an errand for our second room is also an errand, and the household registration for our second room is also an errand, and being an errand for the Li family's ninth room of the royal family is also an errand, and entering the royal family's Li family's nine-room household registration is also an errand. It’s also entering, so what’s the difference?”

Steward Ji frowned and said;

"I always feel that if you enter our second room, you will become a slave. I am afraid that others will not accept it. It doesn't matter if we have children. We have lived with the second room for hundreds of years. If we are kicked out, we will not be used to it. But the Liu family is different. God knows they What do you think?"

"The chief steward's statement is wrong. Isn't the household registration of the first house of the royal family a slave? Isn't it still a commoner who enters our second house of residence? The old man seems to be the same, there is no difference!
Things can be solved at our place at any time, and you can eat and drink without worrying about it. The royal family has too many places and the population is too large, so we can’t cover everything like our second room, so everyone is not stupid about how to choose, and everyone has their own. steelyard.

Not to mention the two of us, even Liu's accountant in the winemaking workshop is ready to move, wanting to dismiss that illusory official position and join in, let alone someone else?May I ask who doesn't want to benefit future generations? "

"Ah? God, this is absolutely not acceptable. The post of General Accountant Liu was promoted by the Supreme himself. Besides, he has written in the three provinces and six ministries. If Liu Yuanwai is dismissed, how will Mr. Lang respond to him?" Supreme to explain?

Moreover!As the general accountant of the brewing workshop, he was originally the chief steward of Li's second house, enjoying the unified arrangement of maids and servants in the mansion, isn't it the same whether he is registered or not? "

"It's very different, Steward Ji. You are a full man who doesn't know how hungry a man is. If you don't have household registration, Mr. Liu will retire if he retires. Naturally, the mansion will re-arrange other people to take over the affairs of the brewery. Is there something about his Liu family's descendants?
But if he enters the household registration of our second room, Mr. Liu's eldest son will be able to inherit his position as the chief steward and continue to flourish.

After working hard for more than ten years in the future, it should not be difficult to find jobs for his other sons. In this case, all his descendants can enjoy wealth and honor. That is the ultimate goal of General Ledger Liu. As for the errands of the royal family, compared with the prosperity and wealth of the descendants... It seems that there is a good or bad comparison without having to choose, right? "

Steward Ji responded while nodding his head;

"This... what my father-in-law said seems to be true. I really didn't think about it. The old rules in Longxi have always been passed down from father to son, mother to daughter, and passed down from generation to generation. Instead, I ignored these ..."
