I rewrote family history

Chapter 117 Confession II

Officials are smooth.

There is light and darkness in this world.When the adults sit under the plaque of "Mirror Hanging High", then the subordinate officials have to take on the responsibility of being the stick for training the people.Xu Er is already familiar with all this, he wants to put on the cloak of the law, and do things like a dog.And if you want to feel like a fish in water between light and darkness, you need a scale.

Section Chief Zheng gave him an octagonal palace lantern, which made it clear.

Between light and darkness, the lamp handle is the measure.

Being an official is like making a lamp.

The lamp holder is a hollowed-out "Fu" character. When the light is on, the "Fu" character is branded on the ground.And the word "blessing" is exactly where the light can't reach.

("The outer lamp holder is a hollowed-out blessing character. When the lamp is turned on, the blessing character is branded on the ground."——Chapter 82.)
Zhu Shiqin's misfortune, of course, he felt sorry for.But if he is asked to pay a greater price to help Zhu Shiqin, this is something he is unwilling to do.

Therefore, he chose to remain silent.

"fine……"

"It's normal to be unable to think of a solution for a while."

Chen Xian'an forced a few laughs.She sighed, turned around, and continued on her way home, saying, "You don't have to worry about it. I just thought you were smarter and asked you a few words. It doesn't have to be an answer."

Xu Er, who was left behind, didn't answer, but followed silently.

After the two of them had finished walking this street, they took another detour.

After a while, we arrived at a high gate compound.

The Chen family and the Zhao family are probably of the same family status, except that there are two more drum-holding stones in front of the door than the Zhao family, and the "Chen" is written on the plaque, there are not many other differences.

The two wishful doors were closed.

The doors of big families are not always open.

Chen Xian'an said a few words of thanks to Xu Erlianzi, then walked to the corner door and knocked on the door.

Immediately afterwards, a burst of coughing was heard outside the door, as well as the sound of soft-soled shoes stepping down on the bluestone path.The sound of footsteps gradually approached.

"Xu Cong, I want to ask you something?"

Before the corner door was opened, Chen Xian'an trotted up to Xu Er's stunned man. She should not have been exercising very much. After only a few steps, she ran blushing and panting heavily, "I ask you, if Shi and I Qin is the same, will you help me?"

Before Xu Er could reply, she ran to the corner door again.

The latch of the corner door sounded.The door opened, revealing a waxy face with a shaggy beard and a gray braid behind his head.

"Miss, are you back? Master and Madam are waiting for you in the room..."

"I've been waiting for you for over an hour."

he said.

After saying this, he realized that there was another person outside the door, dressed like a student, "Master, it's getting late, why don't you come in and have a cup of tea before leaving?"

The show of love came too suddenly.

Xu Er was still stunned, he guessed that what Chen Xian'an said just now.

The thoughts of the daughter's family have always been elusive.Just like Qiuhe's kindness to him was so sudden.On the way, he was ready to accept Chen Xian'an's show of love, but unexpectedly, Chen Xian'an just wanted his help, and when he strangled the germ of love for Chen Xian'an, she showed love to him instead.

"This young master, please come in, please come in..."

"The tea has been prepared in the room, just waiting for you."

The old servant took Xu Er's stupid hand and pulled him into the house.

"Uncle Zhong, what are you doing? He doesn't want to, so you can't force him to do it. He just sent me back because he was afraid that I would be in danger. The two of us have nothing to do with you. There is no need for you to mobilize people like this."

Seeing this scene, Chen Xian'an was a little impatient, and hurriedly said.

"Uncle Zhong, this..., no need, no need to bother..."

Xu Er shrugged subconsciously.

It's just that he didn't expect that this seemingly thin old servant actually tightened his arms. He twitched, but he didn't pull it out. Instead, he pulled his own shoulder blades so painfully.If he pulls hard, he can still get away, but in this way, it is easy to hurt his feelings.

Besides, he was not too far away from the corner door. Under the series of actions of the old servant, he had already been dragged to the door, and by the time he realized it, he had already entered the door.

When we arrive at Chen's house, it's hard to say anything and leave.

Otherwise it's a faux pas.

"I used to be a warrior, and I practiced stone locks..."

The old servant smiled and grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

Bingyong?No wonder it is so powerful.Xu Er shook his head in a daze. He first glanced at the bright room in the front yard in the distance, then straightened his gown, then glanced at the blushing Chen Xian'an, and then sighed helplessly.

After going around a few corridors, we arrived at the main hall.

In the hall, Chen's father and Chen's mother sat in the front seat with a straight face, as if they were planning to reprimand Chen Xian'an.But when they saw Xu Er's stupefied stepping into the room, they immediately changed their expressions.Similar to Mrs. Zhu's complexion before, very gentle.

"Xian'an, who is this?"

Master Chen put down the teacup in his hand, stood up to greet him, and asked.

"Hi Uncle, my name is Xu Cong, and I'm a student in Hongwen Hall. Last time Xian'an performed the play "Twelve Nights", I also played a role in it..."

Xu Er stupefied bowed and gave a brief introduction of himself.

"Xu Cong?"

Master Chen frowned.

He thought about it in his mind for a while, and immediately had an answer.Immediately, his face became a bit colder, "Are you Section Xu from the county office? You are young and promising. Thank you, Section Xu, for sending our family Xian'an back today. Come here, and prepare a thank you gift for Section Xu .”

Since the last time his daughter Dabuwei came on stage to act and lost her reputation, he investigated the actors who also participated in "Twelve Nights", including Xu Erlianzi.The other families are all young masters, only Xu Er is not.He is a member of the county office.The scorpion shit is the only one.He naturally took it to heart.

In other words, a member of Xu Ke, who has a relationship with the Yamen behind his back, will not pretend to be cold-faced.Not to mention flattery, but friendship is inevitable.But if he married his daughter to an official, he would absolutely refuse.

Which official after the imperial examination is willing to do the official of the third class and the sixth house?
Officials have status before the common people, but not necessarily before the gentry.Although it is the Republic of China now, it was not long before Xunqing abdicated, and the officials and officials just changed their terms.Of course, it would be different if he took the position of section chief.

That... is already an official.

"father!"

Chen Xian'an made a long tone and let out a dissatisfied cry.

If she had known that her father was a snobbish eye, she would have definitely prevented Uncle Zhong from bringing Xu Er fool in.

"Member Xu, please sit down..."

"My master's words are not in place, please forgive me. He is worried when he sees Xian'an coming back so late. After all, you have to know about orphans and widows. It's not good to spread the word."

Mrs. Chen stepped forward and made peace.
