Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 416 Wu Shiqi's Rejection

After listening to Su Mu's explanation, Old Hao returned the money to Su Mu, and said solemnly: "Master Mei, although the villain is a libertine, he knows the truth. Naturally, this matter is duty-bound. How dare you ask for your money. Don't worry." Alright, wait for Commodore Bao to handle this matter properly."

Su Mu handed over the money again: "If I give you the money, just accept it."

After two more declines, it was really too much to cut, so Lao Hao accepted it, "Master Mei, I will arrange it right away."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and went into the shed next to him, and whispered to the companions inside who were eating meat and drinking: "Today's account is on my head, and I need some elder brothers to help me later."

Several people said at the same time: "Brother Hao is refreshing and talkative."

Only then did Su Mu feel relieved, and strode onto the official ship where Wu Tuiguan was.

There were a few soldiers lying on the side of the boat who were looking at the scenery. They also knew Su Mu and knew that he had a special relationship with Mr. Wu, so they didn't stop him, so they laughed and said, "Master, it's not appropriate for you to go to see Mr. Wu now."

"But why?" Su Mu asked.

"Master Wu just got angry, and he has been scolding Second Young Master for half an hour."

As they spoke, several soldiers secretly laughed.

As old Mr. Wu's confidantes, they naturally know the old man's family affairs the most. They know that the second son is the most troublesome person, and Mr. Wu is a staid and honest official. way to persuade.

Everyone just watched it as a fun.

But when Su Mu heard this, he frowned slightly.

If I guessed right, Second Wu is trying to persuade the old man to stay.

Wu Laoer's highest ideal in life is to be a domineering yamen, so naturally he hopes that the old man's official position will be as high as possible.

And he picked up the old Juren and went through a whole set of experience, but today even he couldn't convince the old man.

It can be seen that Tuiguan Wu is determined to leave Cangzhou.

It might not be that easy to convince him today.

Just as he was thinking, he saw a tureen teacup thrown out of the cabin, and smashed into pieces on the deck with a bang.

Master Wu roared in a shy and angry voice: "Little bastard, get out of here, what are you talking about staying in Cangzhou, what are you talking about from being a third-rank official, I am now ruined and become a villain in the mouth of a gentleman, what else is there? Keep your face here? Stop talking nonsense, you and I will go back to Yangzhou early tomorrow morning."

This sound startled Su Mu, looking back, the soldiers seemed to be used to it, they didn't even move a bit.

Wu Laoer shouted angrily in the cabin: "Crazy, crazy, dad, you have to go back to Yangzhou to be your seventh-rank official instead of being a third-rank official, isn't this a fool's mind? Besides, what are the benefits of being an official in Yangzhou? There are magistrates, fellow magistrates, and judges on the top. The annual salary is only three or forty taels. It can’t be compared to being a transfer envoy in the Salt Division, with the livelihood of tens of thousands of people at hand, and several million taels of water, compared to a governor’s life..."

Before he finished speaking, Mr. Wu scolded: "When I become an official, how can I only care about getting promoted and making a fortune, reporting the favor of the king, and living up to the expectations of the people of Li. Being an official will benefit one side."

Wu Laoer interrupted his father angrily: "What do you mean to report to the king and not to fail the people? You are not a Jinshi, just an official selection. Even this official was recruited by your brother-in-law. What are you talking about here? Hehe, Daddy, don’t lie to me that I’m young and haven’t read any books. You use great principles to deceive people. The main reason is that you don’t want to be laughed at. If you were really afraid of being laughed at, you shouldn’t have chosen officials in the first place, and you should still follow the right path If you go to the imperial examination, you can behave yourself in an upright manner. Even if you are promoted to a third-rank official, others will not say anything about you. From my son’s point of view, Dad, you don’t want to be an official, but you don’t dare.”

This is already a heartbreaking remark, Su Mu secretly yelled that it was not good.

Sure enough, at this time, there was a "slap", and a loud slap sound came from the cabin, "Get out, damn you!"

After a while, the second child ran out covering his face, shouting as he ran, "You can't be so selfish, you have to work for the welfare of your children and grandchildren. If you want to be an upright official, you still want to support your family with just that little salary? As long as you enter the Salt Division , three lifetimes are enough to eat and use."

"Bastard, I'll chop you!" Mr. Wu also chased him out.

Seeing Su Mu, the father and son who were arguing stopped at the same time.

"I've met Wu Tuiguan." Su Mu hurriedly bowed his hands and saluted.

When Wu Juren saw Su Mu, his face was so dark that water dripped out, and he drank, "Su Mu, I can't think of it, you are a well-learned person anyway, and according to your article, you are also a person of high morality. But What happened today made people's teeth cold. Only now did I know that you are such a despicable villain, and you have trapped me in an unrighteous place. After this, how can I, Wu Shiqi, see others?"

Speaking of this, the old man looked up to the sky and sighed, his head was heartbroken, and tears were about to come out.

"I know why you came here today. I must have discussed it with this evil person. I want to persuade the old man to be a transfer envoy, so as to enrich my own pockets. When I was in the capital, the old lady thought you were a greedy person. He pointed to Wu Er Er, and shouted, "I can't fulfill your wish, old man. In the future...you and Yun'er's marriage will never be mentioned again. You and I have nothing to do with each other. Come here, give him to me." Get off the ship!"

This time, the old man was really angry.

Su Mu was startled, and his heart was filled with anger, because of this, he wanted to break up the marriage.For the sake of a little pride, she had to disregard her daughter's lifelong happiness. She was crazy, completely crazy.

Wu's second son also yelled: "How can it be, Dad, you are crazy, don't you want my sister to die?"

Seeing several soldiers approaching embarrassingly to ask him to disembark, Su Mu waved his hand and said indifferently: "Master Wu, you really misunderstood me. I really thought that I, Su Mu, was greedy for your power and position, and wanted to use your name Make money. Don’t forget, the old man’s official position was obtained by Su Mu for you. If I want to get rich, I have a lot of ways. I don’t think I’m going to follow your door, right? Although Su Mu is a person who loves money, he doesn’t The habit of taking ill-gotten gains, but you misunderstood me."

Hearing Su Mu mention his official position, Wu Juren's pale face turned red, and he shouted: "After returning to Yangzhou, I will immediately submit my resignation letter. You came on board today, don't you just want to persuade me to stay in Cangzhou? Okay, let me answer you now: Mr. Wu is just a small seventh-rank official. He has only served in Yangzhou for two or three months and has not made any achievements. Regardless of his political achievements or qualifications, he is not enough to be a transfer envoy of the Salt Division. Face steals a high position."
