Chapter 844 Returning Home to Worship the Ancestor
"Father, the third brother is still young and has a naive and simple temperament. If he wants to succeed in his studies, he still cannot do without his father's precepts and deeds, and he will always teach him."

To put it bluntly, Sheng Changfeng is just stupid and naive, not very thoughtful, immature, and not suitable to leave home.

Thirteen years is considered the age of modern junior high school students, and it is the time of the second year of middle school.

In this special period of personality formation, children follow and learn from whomever they follow.

Since this child likes to play with Gu Tingye, he doesn't like to be with Qi Heng.

It can be seen that this child likes a libertine who eats, drinks and has fun all day long.

Whether it is a private academy or a government academy, the most indispensable thing is the prodigal son of the honorable official family who came in through connections.

If it is really a private academy with rigorous academics, and the prestigious school has high requirements for students, Sheng Changfeng has no qualifications to enter.

Sheng Changfeng, who has no self-control, eats, drinks, whores and gambles with these people, and can't learn much.

Sheng Changbai is most afraid of this child, what kind of trouble will he cause.

Many of the honorable families lined up behind the second king.

In this era of implicated companies, it is not difficult for Sheng Changfeng to cause any trouble, involving Sheng Hong, Sheng Changbai, and even the whole family.

After much deliberation, it is better for the child to stay at home.

After all, Sheng Changfeng is much older than he was a few years ago, and the older he is.

The greater the difference between men and women, the less time they spend in the backyard.

She didn't stay for that long, so Lin Oshuang couldn't teach the child too many bad things, at most she would fight for more property.

Because Sheng Changfeng was the reason he was counting on for the rest of his life, Lin Haoshuang had a supportive attitude towards Sheng Changfeng's study.

"There's a reason for you to say that. Feng'er is indispensable for being a father and always reminding me, but it's really hard to hire a good tutor!"

Having received the affirmation from Sheng Changbai, Sheng Hong was very happy, stroking his beard and saying to himself.

"This is very difficult. It can be hard for others, but it is hard for father."

Sheng Changbai put a high hat on Sheng Hong and praised him.Sheng Changbai and Wang Ruofu don't usually praise Sheng Hong, but it's quite effective to come here occasionally.

"It's hard to be a father. Although you can't invite a great Confucian like Mr. Zhuang for a while, you can still be a father if you hire a good teacher with a lot of money."

Sheng Hong happily agreed.

Wang Ruofu stared at Sheng Changbai when he saw Sheng Changbai worrying about Sheng Changfeng.

It was difficult to explain in front of Sheng Hong, so I had to wait until I turned around and explain it to Wang Ruofu alone.

After the Fifteenth Dynasty, Sheng Changbai and other new scholars got another chance to meet the emperor.

Sheng Changbai went to work with Sheng Hong again, this time into the palace, outside the Chuigong Hall, waiting for the emperor to come.

One of the most important things in today's dynasty is to assign work to the new division Jinshi.

Waiting for all the civil and military officials to enter, Xinke Jinshi followed at the end and followed in.

Maybe he was overworked last night and got up early in the morning. The old emperor didn't have much energy. After talking a few words casually, he began to ask the Ministry of Officials to announce the results of the appointment.

The Minister of the Ministry of Officials stood up and began to read the status of the number one and second place officials. The old emperor in this department is considered generous. He was awarded the number one scholar and the second place. It is a relatively prosperous state in the area of ​​Jiangsu and Zhejiang Lakes.

"The third Jinshi in the Wuji Division, Sheng Changbai was awarded Dali to judge affairs, and the secretary is the secretary of the provincial school."

Sheng Changbai is also a member of the top three ranks, and his treatment is not bad. Dali judges his own official Jilu official, and he is an eighth-rank Beijing official.

The secretary of the provincial school academy, sent from the eighth grade.

Although Sheng Changbai's job has no real power, it can be said to be very expensive.

The job content is probably equivalent to the administrator in the Royal Library, checking the books and classics collected by the state to see if there are any mistakes.

It is very suitable for Sheng Changbai, who is a minor and has the ability of "prodigy" with a photographic memory, to accumulate some qualifications first.

The old emperor treated Sheng Changbai very well, and Sheng Hong also put his heart into Sheng Changbai's position.

Sanding Jia's official positions are all Beijing officials, which is considered a relatively high salary. It can be seen that the old emperor still prefers Sheng Changbai, an imperial examination candidate.

At least Sheng Changbai and other high-ranking people did not urge the old emperor to adopt other people's sons.

The second and third grades in the back are all ninth ranks. Most of the jobs assigned to the candidates from the ninth ranks are assigned to prefectures and counties, where they serve as various academic officials and assistant officials.

Even those who can become top leaders and go to county towns to serve as magistrates, most of them manage some remote and poor counties.

The candidates of the Great Zhou Dynasty were divided into officials and prefectural and county officials.

Shogunate officials refer to those who assist the state government in handling affairs, such as state judges, military supervisors, etc.

State and county officials refer to officials who are in charge of states and counties, such as county magistrates, master books, county lieutenants, etc.

The seniority ranks of these candidates are self-contained and are called "fourth and seven ranks".

According to the rankings in the palace examination, the starting points of these new subjects are different.

The gap between the selected officials and the Beijing officials, if the official luck is prosperous, it will take about ten years of official training.

Without background and ability, most of the selection officials will never be able to become Beijing officials in their lifetime.

Of course, starting from the assignment of work, it's time to test your contacts.

Scholars with a background are naturally easy to assign to some positions that are easy to get results.

At the beginning, Sheng Hong stood out from the huge selection group by marrying Wang Ruofu and having a background in the Wang family.

In just a dozen years, he was promoted from a ninth-rank official to a sixth-rank Beijing official.

After the appointment, Sheng Changbai and others left the palace.

A large number of people will never have the chance to see the emperor again in this life.

The first thing that happens after a new Jinshi is awarded an official is to have a vacation.

According to the distance between my hometown and Tokyo, the time I can ask for leave varies.

The shortest period is one month, and the longest period is three months. This period of vacation is mainly for the new academics, so that they can go home and pretend to be tough.

The emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was also considered generous. He paid [-] guan coins alone as a new official to return to his hometown and travel expenses for taking office.

It seems that the money is not much, but after becoming an official, even the family members can go whoring for free at the official post.

This is much less than when these new subjects came to Tokyo to rush for the exam.

Of course, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, after becoming an official, they were considered rich no matter what.

Sheng Changbai has both a salary official and a dispatch, that is, he receives two salaries, which add up to thirty yuan in cash, and he also has seven or eight stones of rice, some cloth, and some clothes.

There are also some miscellaneous things, such as salary money, public money, job land, tea soup money, vouchers (travel expenses), kitchen materials, firewood, and discounts add up to ten or so.

Even the money for raising servants will be given by the court.

As a commoner's family, as long as you pass the Jinshi exam, your life will undergo earth-shaking changes, that's for sure.

The monthly income of more than 40 yuan is not too much for the Sheng family.

But it is enough to be an official of a poor family, rent a small courtyard in Tokyo, feed a family of seven or eight people, and take care of a few servants.

You can live a good life without corruption, and the Great Zhou Dynasty still has the basis for the existence of honest officials.

Wealth and honor do not return to their hometowns, such as traveling at night in brocade clothes. Without these new subjects, returning to their hometowns, how can more people be inspired to study and swear interest in imperial examinations.

These newly recruited Jinshi returned to their hometowns, which is the best example for others to learn from.

The other is to give Xinke Jinshi a period of time to solve personal problems, such as getting a wife, taking a concubine, continuing a string, and completing a marriage.

We all know that in-laws are a great help, but a large part of these Jinshi, with the mentality of living in rare goods, are not married.

In order to obtain a capable Yue family after being admitted to Jinshi, many Jinshi are in their twenties, and they are not engaged or married.

Sheng Changbai was appointed as an official in Jingui's capital, so the Sheng family naturally threw another banquet to celebrate.

But this time no one was invited, and my family celebrated in the courtyard.

Even Mrs. Sheng, who doesn't like excitement, participated in such a big event.

Of course, the old lady would not sit down to eat seriously, she just showed her side, said a few words, and stayed for a while, but this was quite rare in the Sheng family.

After all, there was a deep gap between the old lady, her concubine Sheng Hong, and her daughter-in-law Wang Ruofu.

Although the old lady Sheng is not Sheng Hong's biological mother, but with the old lady's contribution to the Sheng family.

After her husband died, Mrs. Sheng helped Sheng Hong keep the family business and raised Sheng Hong, a bastard.

In order for Sheng Hong to pass the Jinshi examination, he worked hard to hire famous teachers for Sheng Hong.

Waiting for Sheng Hong to succeed in his studies, he was afraid that Sheng Hong would not be able to help him in the officialdom.

Forsaking the face of being a concubine in the Hou Mansion, she went to the Wang family to ask for a concubine for Sheng Hong.

The old lady Sheng did her best for the Sheng family. Although she was not Sheng Hong's biological mother, the biological mother could not have done more for Sheng Hong and the Sheng family than the old lady.

Sheng Hong is also a serious scholar, he should have certain morals and know how to repay his kindness, but he shouldn't have this superficially respectful but actually indifferent attitude towards the old lady.

Wang Ruofu doesn't have many bad intentions, and Mrs. Sheng is not a troublesome mother-in-law. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law shouldn't be so rigid.

Originally, when Wang Ruofu first entered the Sheng family, because Mrs. Sheng was not Sheng Hong's mother, she didn't interfere with too many things, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was quite affectionate.

But the problem was all caused by Lin Oshuang, which destroyed the original harmonious relationship between Mrs. Sheng, Sheng Hong, and Wang Ruofu.

Lin Xishuang was originally a young lady of an official family, but because her father was convicted of a crime, her family fell into ruin.

Mother and Mrs. Sheng met for a few times, and had a little old love. When Lin's mother left, she entrusted Lin Biaoshuang to Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng, seeing Lin Biaoshuang pitiful, took Lin Biaoshuang in and kept her by her side.

The old lady wanted to be a good person, and after raising Lin Aoshuang for a few years, she put on some dowry to marry Lin Aoshuang.

Unexpectedly, Lin Oshuang was greedy for the wealth and honor of the Sheng family, and was unwilling to leave the Sheng family, so she seduced Sheng Hong.

Lin Haoshuang has a big belly and is about to marry Sheng Hong.

Sheng Hong, a man who relied on the Wang family and was in officialdom, wanted to take a concubine. Of course Wang Ruofu disagreed, and he wanted to drive Lin Baoshuang out of the Sheng family.

The old lady Sheng and Sheng Hong disagreed, and forced Wang Ruofu to be suppressed, allowing Lin Xiaoshuang to enter the Sheng family.

Old Mrs. Sheng was not Wang Ruofu's mother-in-law, and she raised a concubine for Sheng Hong. The originally harmonious relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was completely gone.

From then on, Wang Ruofu had a grudge against the old lady, and there was a gap.

The more Sheng Hong doted on Lin Xishuang, the more Wang Ruofu resented the old lady.

Sheng Hong has received the kindness of many old ladies, so he must be respectful to the old ladies.

Wang Ruofu has never received any kindness from the old lady, so he only has resentment towards the old lady.

Old Madam Sheng, she didn't agree with it at the beginning, Sheng Hongna Lin Xiaoshuang.

However, he couldn't help the concubine Sheng Hong, who he had raised for many years, and Lin Xiaoshuang, who had been raised by his side for several years, begged bitterly.

He couldn't bear the blood of the Sheng family to be left out, so he helped Sheng Hong suppress Wang Ruofu and let Sheng Hong accept Lin Oshuang.

However, it was also the fact that Lin Biaoshuang seduced Sheng Hong, which caused the old lady to completely hate Lin Biaoshuang.

Sheng Hong also had a lot of sympathy for the old lady because the old lady began to disagree with him, Na Lingaoshuang, and because the old lady hated Lingaoshuang.

To put it simply, the troubles in the Sheng family's backyard are all because of Lin Biaoshuang's acting as a demon.

But in the final analysis, it was because Sheng Hong was lustful and couldn't manage the inner house well.

That is to say, as Sheng Hong got older, the older he got, the more he had more energy than energy.

It was also because Lin Biaoshuang was old and decrepit, and the relationship between the two of them had faded a lot. Sheng Hong was no longer so demanding of Lin Biaoshuang, and the family hadn't been so tossed about in the past few years.

After the family banquet, Sheng Hong approached Sheng Changbai again:
"Bai'er, you have been selected as a Jinshi and appointed an official, so it's time to return to your hometown to worship your ancestors."

"Go back to Youyang?"

Sheng Changbai doesn't have any memories of You Yang. After Sheng Changbai was born, Sheng Hong has been an official outside.

The reason for the prosperity of Sheng Hong's official career is that he was transferred to other places as officials, and his family never returned to Youyang.

In the Great Zhou Dynasty, except for the chief bookkeeper, county lieutenant, these lowest-ranking officials.

Starting from officials at the county magistrate level, officials have to be officials in other places.

"The title on the gold list honors the ancestors, so it's time to return to the hometown to offer sacrifices to the ancestors." Sheng Hong stood up and cupped his hands and said.

"Okay, I'll go back, when are we leaving?"

For at least a month's vacation, Sheng Changbai has nothing to do, so it's not bad to go out and have a look.

Because it is the reason of ancient society, people have the need to report to the group to keep warm and overcome difficulties together, so the concept of clan is very heavy.

For Sheng Changbai, a new researcher, this trip back can strengthen the reputation of the Sheng family in Youyang, and make Dafang's business much smoother.

"I'm going to book the boat going south, and you'll set off after making contact."

In ancient society, the waterway was the most convenient and comfortable. If you can walk by waterway, you should try to take the waterway as much as possible.

"Okay, I will also confirm the candidates for the follower."

Not only to bring maids, servants, wives, rough mothers, the most important thing is to bring the nursing home.

When going out, you still have to pay attention to safety. When you meet some bandits and water bandits, the group of youngsters trained by Sheng Changbai has come to contribute their strength.

Sheng Hong is not a brave man, he doesn't blindly ask for it, and he still pays attention to people's sophistication.

He and Dafang Uncle Shengwei have always been in a state of mutual benefit.

This time when Sheng Changbai returned to Youyang, Sheng Hong also bought a lot of things, and asked Sheng Changbai to take them back as a gift from the second room to the eldest room.

So when Sheng Changbai returned to Youyang this time, he also brought a large ship full of goods.
