Rebirth of the Poor Girl

With the sound of the gong, the Yawei stopped outside the gate of Tian's house holding a sign and holding the good news. The whole Yangmei Village exploded. Adults and children followed behind, pointing and whispering, some were happy, some were jealous, and some were disdainful.

Mr. Tian changed into new clothes that he only wore during the Chinese New Year, and led a large family to welcome him out. Watching Tian Huaide take the paperwork, he burst into tears, unable to speak a word.

Li Zheng and the others who came to preside over the branching of the family obviously did not expect such a coincidence, and they handed over the letter of appointment at this time, which means that Tian Huaide is a serious official.

Li Zhengneng, Li Zheng is naturally a good person, and personally took out two pieces of silver from the money bag on his waist as a reward to the official who came to deliver the good news, and said politely: "The official is in trouble."

Only then did Mr. Tian realize that he hadn't prepared to reward the money yet, so he quickly asked Jiang to pick it up. Seeing that Lizheng had already rewarded him, Jiang felt a little reluctant, but couldn't bear the old man's urging, so Mance walked to the main room in an orderly manner. go.

"Officer, let's go in and have a cup of tea. The family is preparing for a banquet." Mr. Tian came forward to greet the two officials with a smile.

"The old man is overjoyed. Our family still has an errand, so I'm leaving." One of the officials refused with a smile. Anyway, he got a reward.

Mr. Tian was still trying to persuade them to stay, he held the hands of the two of them and chatted nonstop, seeing Mrs. Jiang coming out, he quickly let go of his hand and asked in a low voice, "Where's the money?"

Mrs. Jiang muttered: "If Lizheng rewards you, you will still be rewarded. What are you paying for onions?" As he spoke, he reluctantly took out a handful of copper coins from his bosom.

When Mr. Tian saw the handful of copper coins, his face darkened and he gave her a hard look.

Tian Minyan craned her neck to look at it, but it looked like twenty copper coins, so she couldn't help but pursed her lips and snickered.

This is Jiang's penny-pinching style. He is not willing to reward people with money. From her point of view, it doesn't matter if the official errand doesn't give a reward. Do they dare not come if they have an errand?

But it's no wonder Jiang's, she is a small farmer, she has lived in a farmer's house all her life, and has never been out to see the big world.

"It's just your short-sightedness. What time is this? You're ashamed to take this little money. This is to send a beggar. Why don't you wink at all?" Mr. Tian held the warm copper coin, only feeling his face burning hot. Yes, it was like being slapped hard on the ear, and he couldn't help scolding Jiang Shi severely.

"You don't want to get back the ten taels of silver in this branch, you want money everywhere, how can you have money, I'm Monkey King, can I change it if I grab a handful of hair and blow it?" Jiang insisted.

"You, it doesn't make sense with a bad woman like you." Mr. Tian was so angry that he choked on her.

Li Zheng obviously saw it too, and took out two pieces of silver from his belt and handed it to the two officials, saying: "You two officials, this is the wine money from our old man."

The two officials took it with smiles and stuffed it into their sleeve pockets, resigned and left.

As soon as the officials left, whether they were acquainted with the Tian family or had a normal relationship, they all came forward to congratulate with smiles on their faces: "Congratulations, old man, congratulations to old man Tian. Ah, it should be Lord Tian."

"Haha, we are happy together." Mr. Tian said with a smile on his face, "The family is presiding over the division of the family. I am busy with work. I will invite everyone to come to have a glass of water and wine in the future."

"Good talk, good talk."

"The old man is very polite."

"We must chat."

All kinds of polite voices came and went, and for a while, people crowded in front of Tian's house, repeating auspicious and pleasant words.

The happiest thing was the second bedroom of the eldest room. The crowd surrounded the old man and Tian Huaide and walked into the main room with joy and smiles on their faces.

"Quick, show me." Mr. Tian sat on the kang, impatiently stretched out his hand to Tian Huaide.

Tian Huaide respectfully handed over the hard-won documents in his hand with a smile, and said, "Father, the child will finally live up to your years of upbringing."

Mr. Tian took it and opened it, and saw that it was written to Chongming for 15 years, intending to be appointed as the prime minister of Congjiupin County, Henghe County, Qingzhou Prefecture, and he will take office soon. . .Tian Huaide's name was written on it in a big way.

With a bang, a hot tear from Mr. Tian fell on the document. He quickly reached out to wipe it off, but the tears fell one after another like broken beads, which could not be wiped off.

No one can understand the old man's thoughts. He has three sons. Life was difficult back then, and he was under pressure to support the elder brother's education. The reason was that he would have a son who would honor his ancestors in the future and get rid of the lintel of farmers and peasants.

He knew that the second and third were both unwilling and felt that he was biased, and he admitted it, but he had no choice. The eldest was his first child, the eldest son, and the rarest and most affectionate, so naturally he devoted the most effort.

Now that the boss is finally promising, the facts have proved that he is not wrong to be biased. Look, their Tian family has been squeezed into the ranks of officials and gentry since then.

"Father, this is a happy thing. Do you see what kind of golden beans you dropped? You didn't want to make my uncle laugh." Seeing Lao Tzu crying, Tian Huaixiao was afraid that he would cry out all the good fortune, so he hurriedly said, "Today is a good day." Days, you should laugh all the time, and you have to eat a few big cups of wine."

"Your father is weeping with joy." Uncle Baibeard stroked his beard and said, "Our Yangmei Village has been around for a hundred years, and we have an official. Old Tian, ​​you really should be happy, and you should eat two cups."

"Uncle, it hasn't been easy for me these years." Mr. Tian cried and laughed: "It's really not easy."

"That's enough, it's a shame." Jiang threw a handkerchief over and said to Li, "Li, go get a basin of water for your father to wipe his face."

"Jingya, hurry up and get some water." Mrs. Li pushed her little daughter out, didn't look at Mrs. Jiang's eyes and gritted her teeth, and just clapped her hands and said with a smile: "I think this family is well divided, Ping Ban Xian is really amazing. You see, the eldest brother is now the official, and sister-in-law, you are a serious official wife, and everyone who sees you will kowtow."

Mrs. Chen couldn't hide her joy, even though Mrs. Li's words were not very pleasant, but the words of Mrs. Guan were very useful to her. At that moment, she puffed up her chest and raised her chin slightly, with a proud face.

And Mrs. Jiang, when she heard Mrs. Li's sentence that anyone who sees you must kowtow, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and turned black.

"Hehe, as the saying goes, it's better to be well-timed than to be well-spoken. This is a good thing, a good thing." Li Zheng laughed and said, "Mr. Tian, ​​today, I have to beg for a bowl of water and wine here, so that I can enjoy it." You are lucky to be old."

"Definitely, don't get drunk, don't leave." Mr. Tian was very happy, turned his head and said to Tian Huaixiao: "Second brother, you go to the town and invite two tables of good noodles and bring back two jars of wine. Let's eat to our heart's content."

"Hey."

Tian Minyan looked at the people in the room full of smiles, and wondered if Tian Huaide would smile so happily when he loses his job in the future?

However, since she knew it, shouldn't she remind the old man?
