The peasant widow is famous all over the world

Chapter 137: Don’t let others give you a few words of praise and then get carried away

Tang Mian counted and found that there were ten pieces of cloth. He had just given them to his eldest and second uncle, a total of six pieces, and there were four pieces left.

One box of jewelry and two large boxes of supplements.

There are four large bags of cotton, estimated to weigh more than ten kilograms.

A set of pen and ink, some paper, and a copybook.

Tang Mian guessed that these things were for Zhuang Zhuang.

There are four jars of wine in total.In addition to the two jars given to the eldest and second uncle, my parents also gave one jar as a gift when they left, and there is still one jar left.

There are two bags of tea.

There is also a jade pendant and a banknote given by my sister.

My sister said the jade pendant is a token between sisters, and she also has the same one.The only difference is that each jade pendant has a different name engraved on it.

Although Tang Mian didn't know how much the jade pendant was worth, it didn't look cheap.

Tang Mian opened the banknote and looked at it. There were 300 taels.

I was shocked when I opened it. I didn't expect my sister to be so generous.

300 taels, before she started collecting herbs, that was an amount she could not even imagine, but now it appeared one after another in front of her eyes.

Now, she has some wealth.

Wait until it snows in winter, then go into the mountains to collect some medicine in exchange for some money.In this way, Zhuangzhuang will not have to worry about money for medicine for a long time.

Thinking of this, Tang Mian let out a long sigh of relief.

"Mian Niang, this, there are too many things!" Ms. Li looked at the things in the room with some fear.

There is a feeling that the pie is falling from the sky, and it is not practical even if it falls into your hands.

Not only did she have so many things, Mianniang told her that she also had 300 taels of silver notes.

Li's heart was pounding at that time, making her even more uneasy.

Seeing the uneasy Mrs. Li, Tang Mian quickly comforted her, "Mom, since my sister sent it, it is her heart. You don't have to worry about anything, let alone feel pressure."

In fact, Tang Mian himself was feeling stressed.But looking at Li's appearance, he could only pretend to be relaxed and comfort her first.

Li looked at Tang Mian anxiously for a moment, and finally nodded, "Mom, I understand."

"Starting tomorrow, mother will cut cloth and make clothes for you. Especially Zhuangzhuang, the weather is about to get colder, and he doesn't have any clothes to wear!"

"Okay." Seeing Mrs. Li gradually relaxing, Tang Mian also breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the Lu Guang and Lu Ming families who left, the man held the wine jar and refused to let go, while the woman held the cloth and refused to let go.

"Thanks to Mian Niang for getting so many things this time." Lu Guang sighed deeply as he took a deep breath of the aroma of wine in his arms.

Lu Ming also joined in and said, "That's right. Even after acquiring so many things, the county magistrate even asked Zhiqiang to work as a county clerk, and he also wrote a letter of recommendation to Yan Xuan to enter Nanhua Academy."

The latter two are truly a great favor!

Lu Guang also nodded, "That's right. Although the status of the yamen official is not high, he is still an official and can still intimidate people in the countryside. Although Yan Xuan's knowledge is pretty good, he is not worried about not passing the exam, but he can directly enter the school. Naturally better.”

"The county magistrate also told me about being a government official." Lu Zhian heard their discussion and continued.

"what?"

When the group heard what Lu Zhian said, they all turned to look at him. "The county magistrate also asked you to join the county government as an official?"

Lu Zhian looked at their eager eyes, smiled and nodded, "Yes. The county magistrate told me on the carriage back to the village."

As soon as Lu Zhian finished speaking, the air suddenly became quiet. After a moment, Lu Guang raised his head and laughed, "Hahaha, okay!"

At first, he thought that his eldest son was not as good at martial arts as Zhiqiang and that the county magistrate would look down upon him!

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate had already told him.

After Lu Guang smiled, he patted Lu Zhian heavily on the shoulder, "Good boy, not bad!"

The rest of the people were very happy and congratulated Lu Zhian one after another.

"Zhi'an, Zhiqiang, you two brothers should take care of and support each other when you enter the yamen. You should also do your own duties and help the county magistrate share your worries."

After Lu Guang calmed down his excitement, he looked at Lu Zhi'an and Lu Zhiqiang's instructions.

Lu Ming also stared at the two of them, thinking the same thing.

"Dad, don't worry, I will do it."

"Uncle, don't worry, I will do it."

Lu Zhian and Lu Zhiqiang responded in unison.

Lu Guang and Lu Ming were not too worried about them.

On the other hand, other people in the family, especially the daughters-in-law, Lu Guang and Lu Ming specifically reminded them: "If they become government servants, they will have more or less respect in the nearby villages. Even the big guys will take advantage of it and say You may encounter people who flatter you. If you encounter this kind of thing, you must have a good reputation in your heart and don't let others praise you for a few words."

"Dad, we understand."

Lu Guang and Lu Ming nodded, and then said: "If someone comes to you and asks Zhi'an and Zhiqiang to help in the yamen, you can't just agree in a daze, you know?"

"Father, we know."

Lu Guang and Lu Ming glanced at their family members and stopped talking with satisfaction.Then, each went home.

On the other side, Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing returned to the county government office and went directly to the back hall.

Back in the back hall, Yu Mingzhi took off his civilian clothes and wanted to change into official uniforms to handle official business.

"Why did you send so many books to the Lu family's private school?" Zhuang Jing finally asked the question he had been holding back for a long time.

Yu Mingzhi kept taking off his clothes and responded: "Oh, doesn't this help the girl earn more face?"

Zhuang Jing raised her hand and poked Yu Mingzhi on the back, "Tell the truth."

Yu Mingzhi's back stiffened slightly, and he turned around helplessly to look at Zhuang Jing, who had a serious face.

"I can't hide anything from you!" Yu Mingzhi took off his coat, put it on the shelf, smiled and took Zhuang Jing's hand and said.

Zhuang Jing snorted softly, "If you know you can't hide it, just tell the truth."

"Yes, madam!" Yu Mingzhi sighed slightly and responded.

Zhuang Jing looked at Yu Mingzhi with wide eyes, not missing any expression on his face.
