Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

The big man Hu Jinxue has been in a depressed mood recently, for two reasons.

The first is because of the matter between Hu Ying and Su Mu. Needless to say, the relationship between him and Su Mu is not only a good friend, but also a classmate; and Hu Ying is also his sister, watching this little sister grow up since childhood , In his heart, he already regarded Miss Hu as his own sister.

In the end, the marriage between Su Mu and Hu Ying not only broke down completely, but the two families became enemies.

Seeing Ms. Hu's gloomy expression all day long, Hu Jinxue felt so sad that he was dying. If possible, he would rather die in exchange for Su Mu and Hu Ying getting back together.

Aside from the family affection of the Hu family, Hu Jinxue is also loyal to Hu Baihu, Hu Shun's uncle.As the only daughter of the Hu family, Hu Ying will naturally become the object of loyalty of the big man in the future.

The master was worried about his servant's humiliation, and he was also troubled in his heart.

The second thing is that Hu Baihu's life has been very difficult recently.

In Baoding, because others regarded Hu Baihu as the confidant of Commander Jin Yiwei Mou, they were also afraid of him and could please him, so the life of the Hu family was quite good.

But the master has nothing to do with Commander Mou at all. This point is very clear to the people in the Bei Ya, Nan Ya, and Experience Department.

After Baoding Jinyiwei's vacancy book came out, many people have been active in the capital to get this fat vacancy.Among them, the most competitive one is Tongzhi Gao of the Experience Department, who deliberately asked his nephew to fill this vacancy.

But he didn't want to make a mistake, but this beautiful job fell on Hu Shun's head.

At the beginning, Gao Tongzhi thought that Hu Shun had a big boss, so he held back.After more than a month of investigation, he realized that Hu Baihu was just lucky and had no background at all.

This time, Hu Shun worked with Dongchang on the "Journey to the West" case and went to Beijing for a business trip. He went to experience the affairs of the department, but was scolded by Mr. Gao and asked to fork it out.

Commander Tongzhi, a senior official of the fourth grade, and in charge of a key department similar to the organization department like the Experience Department, after Hu Shun spent a lot of money to find out the cause and effect of this incident, he yelled that he was not good, his official I'm afraid it's the end.

It stands to reason that after handing in the errand, he returned to Baoding because of it.

But the experience department only asked him to wait in the capital, and there was no further word, probably looking for a reason to deal with him.

Therefore, in the past few days, Hu Shun stayed in the inn all day long and sighed, sleepy and melancholy.

Hu Jinxue is a no-brainer, so if he is asked to charge forward, he is naturally a good player, but he can't do things that make suggestions, and he doesn't know how to comfort his uncle, so he can only sit in the lobby of the inn and look at the scenery on the street. daze.

At this time, a six or seven-year-old child came over with a smile, grabbed Hu Jinxue's sleeve, and sang a fat promise: "Are you called a big man?"

Hu Jinxue was upset, and was about to blow the little boy away, but when he heard this, he was stunned: "How do you know I'm a big man?"

The child smiled: "It really is you, follow me quickly, do you have a fellow who wants to join you?"

"Who?"

"You'll know when you go, big man, are you going or not? By the way, the man said his surname is Su."

"Ah, I'm going right away?" Hu Jinxue suddenly stood up from his chair when he said that the surname was Su, and followed the child in big strides. After a few steps, he saw a smiling Su at the corner of the street. Wood.

"Enroll in school, don't you come here unharmed?"

"Zi Qiao, it really is you, how did you find me?" Hu Jinxue grinned and laughed, hugging Su Mu and shaking it non-stop.

"Let go, I'm about to be shaken to pieces by you." Su Mu yelled repeatedly: "I heard what Sun Chen said, so I asked for the address and came to visit you. You know, Hu Baihu and I... ...It's a bit inconvenient to meet..."

When Hu Baihu was mentioned, Su Mu was a little embarrassed.

The big man hurriedly let go of Su Mu, still laughing.

The boy suddenly became unhappy: "Is there a right person, give me money, give me money, what about a penny?"

Su Mu clapped his sleeves: "I'm penniless, you ask the big man for it."

The big man hurriedly touched a piece of broken silver and threw it to the boy, and went to a teahouse with Su Mu.

After making up his mind, he hurriedly said: "Zi Qiao, you are willing to come to see me, but it's a pity... the young lady didn't come to the capital..."

Su Mu: "Let's not talk about it, I came here today to ask something."

"Zi Qiao, please tell me."

Su Mu: "Jinxue, when I went to the Ministry of Rites to sign up for the township examination, I heard from Sun Chen that Mr. Shao was involved in the case of Journey to the West. Some people said that he was the original author, so we can find out."

The big man: "The master has also handled this matter. Although it is the case of Dongchang, it can't bypass our Jinyi Sanitation in the first half of the case in Baoding. There is indeed such a rumor, but Mr. Shao has presided over the county school for so many years. In addition, there are many scholars among the students, and the same year, the teacher, if he is really going to be executed, I am afraid that the impact will be a bit big. Besides, it is just a small case, and Dongchang doesn't want to make it too big, so it doesn't care. "

"Didn't you say that a lot of cash was found at Mr. Shao's house?"

"There is such a thing. However, Mr. Shao also said that this is the money of the county school. If there is an account, Dongchang will not dare to mess around. Anyway, they got enough money from Boss Lin, tens of thousands. Two. Don’t worry, Zi Qiao, this case is closed, Boss Lin will send you a thousand miles to the Datong Army, and Mr. Shao will be fine.”

Hearing that Boss Lin was dispatched to Datong, Su Mu felt sad for a while, not because of the money he lost.The money is gone, and the big deal is to earn it back later.But Boss Lin has suffered so much, if he becomes famous in the future, he can find a way to save him.

The problem is, it's not clear whether I'm involved in the case now, and I dare not say anything like saving him.

"Jinxue, is Journey to the West really written by Mr. Shao?" Su Mu asked slowly.

"Who the hell knows who wrote it?"

"Is Boss Lin not recruiting? Do other people in the Lin Family Bookstore have any statements?" Su Mu became nervous. When he wrote "Journey to the West", Lin Family Bookstore would have a guy come to collect manuscripts every day. If that person identified him, Things get tricky.

"What's the recruiting? Others say it was written by Mr. Shao. Dongchang doesn't want to make matters worse. Anyway, they are satisfied after getting so much money. Isn't it just a formality, what to do in such a detailed trial. So, in the verdict, The people in Dongchang said that the book was written by Boss Lin."

Su Mu let out a long breath, and couldn't help a burst of ecstasy in his heart: It seems that I was thinking too much.From now on, Su Mu can be a man with his head held high and he doesn't have to think about going to the south.You can take the imperial examination again and become an official.

"Jinxue, thank you."

"You came to see me today and asked this?" Hu Jinxue was a little confused, and Su Mu never mentioned Hu Ying from the beginning to the end, which made him a little depressed.

"I just want to see each other. It's nothing else to talk about the old relationship between brothers. Ouch..." Su Mu suddenly remembered something, and his face changed suddenly.

Seeing his expression, Hu Jinxue also became nervous: "Zi Qiao, what's wrong with you?"

Su Mu cupped his hands and stood up: "I have something urgent to leave, so I'll take my leave first. By the way, if you have any money, please borrow some and pay it back to you after the provincial examination."

"A bit, what's the matter?" Hu Jinxue took out a pile of broken silver from his arms: "It's all my brothers, why don't you pay it back? If it's not enough, I'll go back to the inn to get some."

This pile of broken silver is not much, only about 30 taels.

"Enough, enough. You Jinyiwei are really rich! By the way, although I don't know whether the book is written by Mr. Shao, but if this case is repeated, I hope you can come and tell me, so that Mr. Get ready." After saying this, Su Mu got the money, left his address and left in a hurry.
