A poor family counterattacks, she is beautiful and sassy on the way to the imperial examination

Chapter 131 Chapter 131

An Chuxia raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, and said in a weary voice, "Brother, stay and help me keep an eye on the crops we grow this year in the village."

An Jinchen came to his senses this time, knowing that he had heard correctly just now, and that his sister really didn't intend to take him away with her.

Seeing the sadness on her brother's face, An Chuxia walked over and grabbed An Jinchen's big hand, "Brother! Those grain seeds are really important to me, I don't feel at ease handing them over to others."

An Jinchen also thought of the more than 100 acres of well-growing seedlings on the Zhuangzi, and was a little bit reluctant, but compared with An Chuxia, his sister, these seemed insignificant.

"Isn't it okay to have Ah Sheng watching?"

An Chuxia walked back to the desk and opened the drawer, took out the wood sandalwood from it and handed over to An Jinchen the several hundred acres of land deeds left behind when she left.

"Brother, do you think Brother Asheng can manage such a large farm by himself?"

An Jinchen also studied in a private school for a period of time when his young parents were alive, so of course he recognized that it was a land deed, and it was a deed with hundreds of acres of land.

Thinking that my younger sister would usually go to Zhuangzi when it was a holiday, it seemed that she really valued those grains, so how could I not help her as her only relative.

An Jinchen gritted her teeth. Although she was reluctant to leave her sister, she still said in a difficult voice: "Xia Xia, don't worry, my brother must be optimistic about those grains."

An Chuxia secretly let out a sigh of relief, although she was also reluctant to let go of this brother who loved her so much.

But I heard that the geographical location in Wei County is not good, and the grain harvest is not abundant every year. It is difficult to make achievements there and get promoted to an official position. She doesn't want to bring her brother there to suffer.

Moreover, the poorer the place, the easier it is for bandits and bullies to be born. Even the old emperor said that it has been there for several years, and no one wants to go there to be a county magistrate.

When An Chuxia heard this, if she hadn't been afraid that the old emperor would chop off her head in anger, she would have sprayed him with pearl cream... and left.

However, Chief Manager Rong Ling should have been hinted by the old emperor to let her know that there is a lot of history behind this piece of Wupin token in her hand.

This token is a token bestowed by the empresses of the past dynasties to close female officials. It is said to be of no rank, but in fact it surpasses all high-ranking officials.

Even at critical moments, the army can be mobilized, which has the effect of killing first and playing later. I don't know what the old emperor thinks, and he will give her this token.

The reason why the ministers did not know the existence of this token was because the previous generations of kings did not encounter any major dangers, and the close female officials did not take out the token and use it.

The male emperor would not easily give this token to a female official, so many ministers did not know how effective the token in An Chuxia's hand was.

Even if the old emperor still has a conscience, otherwise she would have lost her life there like the previous county magistrates.

Wei County is only a few hundred miles away from the border city, if the local bandits are too rampant.

An Chuxia thought that she should be able to take this token and mobilize a small number of troops to the frontier barracks. It would not be too much to help suppress the bandits!

We'll talk about these things when we get there later, An Chuxia withdrew her intention of running away, the most important thing now is to settle down at home.

From her bosom, she took out the phoenix pattern badge given by the fourth princess, and put it in An Jinchen's hand: "If my brother encounters any difficulties after I leave, you can ask the fourth princess for help.

The pregnant woman I rescued last year was her. If you have something to ask for help with this token, the fourth princess should be able to help. "

An Jinchen looked at the familiar phoenix pattern on the token in his hand, and held it in his hand, "Okay, Xia Xia, don't worry, brother knows."

An Chuxia thought about the matter at Zhuangzi, and explained to An Jinchen carefully: "Brother, when the Zhuangzi is harvesting, try not to let other people know how much grain is harvested per mu, lest they accidentally say it out.

Although that farm is relatively remote and far away from other places, brother still has to be careful not to let them reveal the affairs of the farm. "

"Okay, brother will definitely pay attention!"

Although An Jinchen didn't know why his sister had to explain it like this, it didn't prevent An Jinchen, a sister who controlled the demons, from taking what her sister said as something more important than the emperor's decree.

Afterwards, An Jinchen made the management of the Zhuangzi more strict, and the people who bought it didn't think anything of it, and the Zhuangzi didn't have to worry about food or drink.

When it was cold, the pigs were killed and the meat was distributed to everyone. This was better than what they had lived before, and no one wanted to go out for a stroll.

An Jinchen didn't let anyone weigh all the grain harvested in autumn. Although everyone felt that the grain harvested was quite a lot, they didn't know the exact amount. Everyone just discussed it and didn't pay much attention to it.

After settling things at home, An Chuxia went to hand over official duties to the newcomer Jing Zhaoyin the next day, and then went out to buy some favorite tea from a tea house not far away.

As soon as he came out, he ran into Tang Dongyi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and walked towards him with a few companions.

Tang Dongyi didn't seem surprised at all when he saw An Chuxia, as if he had expected it, the corners of his mouth curled up, and he couldn't tell whether he was smiling or mocking.

An Chuxia didn't know this person very well, but just as she was about to pretend she didn't see her and leave, Tang Dongyi called out to her, "Why is An Zhuangyuan so anxious to leave when he sees me waiting, at least we should get to know each other... we should call each other Say hello."

The other young men who were with him stood aside as if they were watching the show.

At this time, An Chuxia still didn't understand that this person knew that she was demoted to be a county magistrate in other places, and came to see her jokes, she was an idiot.

But is An Chuxia's joke so good, so An Chuxia straightened her shoulders, stared at Tang Dongyi, and said unhurriedly: "Tang Jinshi is still a trainee Shuji in the Imperial Academy, right?"

Tang Dongyi was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect that this woman, who used to overwhelm him with her knowledge, had already been relegated to a remote place to be a small county magistrate, and she still spoke so calmly.

There was no dejection in the expression on his face.

Tang Dongyi replied with some discomfort in his heart: "Yes! But even now, I am still a low-ranking concubine, and I am more noble than a small county magistrate!"

The Imperial Academy has been a reserve camp for high-ranking officials since ancient times, and everyone there feels superior to others, and a proud person like Tang Dongyi is even more arrogant than others.

"Oh, then you know that you are a good person, why don't you see etiquette when you see this Xiuzhuan? Could it be that you don't even understand the most basic etiquette." An Chuxia said solemnly.

Only then did Tang Dongyi recall that he had only heard that this once glorious female No. [-] scholar was demoted to a minor county magistrate because she offended the powerful.

But it's true that he didn't hear that her post of compiling in the Hanlin Academy was abolished, and he was careless.

Tang Dongyi didn't want people to say that he didn't understand the etiquette of superiors and subordinates in the future, so he held his breath and saluted An Chuxia.

Watching An Chuxia get into the carriage carrying tea, Tang Dongyi's silver teeth were about to be crushed by himself.

What a good thing it is to be able to walk with someone like Tang Dongyi. They couldn't see the joke of An Chuxia, the female champion, and turned around and told Tang Dongyi's joke to others.

Here, An Chuxia had just wiped Tang Dongyi's embarrassment again, and she was feeling at ease when she realized something was wrong.

She hastily opened the curtain of the carriage, and saw that sweat was dripping from Zixi's forehead, and he couldn't control the big black horse galloping down the street with all his strength.
