The lucky wife of a peasant is not easy to mess with, so she can earn her life by marrying her husba

"I still need to think more about this matter. There are a few places I know of so far. It depends on your choice."

After Fu Changfeng finished talking with Mr. Hu, Mrs. Hu asked them to stay for lunch before returning home.

"How's it going? What did Mr. Hu say?" As soon as he entered the room, Xi Chun was eager to know what he had gained today.

"Master Hu told me about several places. They are all local officials. But the advantage is that they are close to home. One is the county seat below Juzhou on Qianzhong Road, the other is Wanzhou on Shannan Road, and the other is on Longyou Road. Lanzhou, but that place is further away than the first two.”

Officials have a recusal system. They cannot return to their hometowns to serve, so if they cannot find a good official position, it is better to stay closer to home.

"I have heard of these three places. Before Juzhou in the Central Guizhou Province was conquered, it was under the jurisdiction of the local chieftains. The chieftains were extremely powerful and ordinary officials had little power. The Shannan Road Wanzhou is said to be a place with many mountains and dense forests. As for Longyou Road, I think it is indeed far away from home."

They all felt that the three places were similar, and it was difficult to choose for a while. Xichun asked him to think about it himself, and he would follow wherever he chose.

As for places like Jiangnan Road and Huainan Road, they have relatively convenient transportation and rich products. They are good resources that they cannot grab. If they try hard to fight for them, they may not get them, so they might as well settle for the second best.

"Well, I have to think about it carefully. After I discuss it with Brother Zeng, I don't know how Brother Zeng has done with his inquiries." Fu Changfeng thought for a while and realized that he really couldn't make a choice, so he went to find Brother Zeng. He also Just got back from a visit.

"I don't have any good news here. Our current situation is similar. We are both doing business. After asking for a long time, I have similar ideas to yours. Let's think about it carefully."

The two discussed with each other for a long time and finally decided on where they decided to go.

"Brother Zeng and I discussed it, and I have decided to go to Wanzhou in Shannan Road to serve as an official." Fu Changfeng came back and told Xichun the result of the discussion.

"Okay, then you can talk to Mr. Hu tomorrow and ask him to help us make peace. Remember to bring gifts, but don't go empty-handed." Xichun heard what he said and agreed.

"I thought that after the exam was over, the rest of the journey would be smooth. I never thought that the real test had just begun, and I didn't know what the situation was like in Wanzhou." Fu Changfeng and Xichun were lying on the bed, not letting go of the mental pressure before the exam. He was tossing and turning like this and still had some insomnia.

"In officialdom, it is naturally a more complicated environment than studying, and it requires a lot of adaptation. I hope that in the future we can fulfill our wishes and spend our time in office smoothly."

"I feel bad. I heard Mr. Hu say that these places are relatively remote. In many places, the mountains are really high and the emperor is far away. We don't know how difficult the things we have to face when we go there will be. I want to wait for the appointment. After the petition is over, we will ask for leave and go home to see my parents. By the way, I want to select a group of young princes and masters from home, so I can’t go without my own people.”

"I think it will work. We are not familiar with the local people. If something happens, we may not be able to prevent it. It is better to choose some of our own people." Xichun also thinks that his idea is feasible.

The two of them went straight to the latter half of the night, and then they were so sleepy that they fell asleep. The same scene happened in the Zeng family. It is really not easy to choose as an official, and you will have scruples in whatever you choose.

The next day, Fu Changfeng brought a gift and waited until Mr. Hu had finished his duty. Then he came and told Mr. Hu his choice. "I didn't expect these places to be popular. Now the vacancy in Shannan Road has been filled. Now you only have Juzhou and Lanzhou to choose from. Do you want to choose another one?" Unexpectedly, Mr. Hu told him , Wanzhou has been selected.

"Then I'll choose Juzhou. It's close to home. If anything happens, I can also bring my children over." Fu Changfeng thought about it. This was his and Xichun's second choice yesterday.

"Okay, don't worry, I will fight for you this time. Now those Jinshi are looking for a way. If it's too late, they might be chosen first. Don't worry now. Stay at home and wait for my news until it's confirmed. I’ll send someone to find you.”

"Thank you, Mr. Hu, for taking your time." Fu Changfeng also sincerely thanked him.

"This is nothing. We are all from the same hometown, and you are my father's student. This matter is easy to do. The court also knows these things and will not punish them for this matter, unless it is a place with rich real estate like Jiangnan Road. , that’s really over the top, I’ve heard many colleagues mention this these days.”

Fu Changfeng did not choose some local counties that he could not do. Mr. Hu was already very pleased. In this capital, there are so many fifth-rank officials like him. If Fu Changfeng's requirements were too high, he would not be able to do it. .

Fu Changfeng went home and waited for the news. Finally, on the third day, Mr. Hu sent his servants to report that what he had asked for had been granted, and he was chosen to be the county magistrate of Shaoming County under Juzhou.

There is also good news for Zeng Jinshi. He is the magistrate of Xihe County, Chengzhou, Longyou Road.

Both of them had a place to go, and the big stone in their hearts finally fell. Xichun and Sister Cao bought vegetables and prepared to celebrate. Fu Changfeng also invited Xie Jinshi as a guest. He has now become the son-in-law of Mr. Xu's family. Naturally, Mr. Xu will worry about his future.

"Now Mr. Xu has decided a place for me. It's in Ruzhou, Henan Province. Our official positions have finally been decided. Come on, let's have a drink. I haven't dared to relax these days. It's only after we've decided." Peace of mind.”

Xie Jinshi's name is Xie Biping. Since he became Mr. Xu's son-in-law, many people who took the exam invited him to go out to play, but they said that he was different after climbing a high branch. Only Fu Changfeng still did so. Treat him as before.

"We will be separated from each other in the future. I don't know when we will get together. Come, we must have a drink. Let's toast to the friendship we have had these days." Zeng Jinshi was also in high spirits at this moment. From the first day in the capital to now, he finally It was to vent all the repression that came from this time.

"Yes, we brothers share the same joys and sorrows. I only hope that the future will be the same as now. I wish you both good luck and success, and you will be able to support your younger brother."

"Hahaha, it's easy to talk about. I wish we can all be promoted step by step." The three of them drank until midnight, and Xichun slept until midnight when he felt Fu Changfeng coming back drunk.

Five days later, their letters of appointment finally came out. Fu Changfeng took the opportunity to ask and learned that the court still cared about them. Officials who had just taken office were given a month's leave and they only had to take office within the deadline.

Fu Changfeng and Xichun didn't waste any more time. They both bought a lot of gifts from the capital and prepared to give them to their families back home. Then they checked out the rent and hurriedly returned home together.

As for Xie Biping, he had already written a letter home. This time he had to hold a happy event before going home. Thanks to his father-in-law, he asked for more leave.
