Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

It’s the time when the central government of the Ming Dynasty gets off work every day. Since Emperor Zhengde lived in Xiyuanzhou for a long time, the central decision-making body of the country has gradually moved westward, and more than half of the ministry’s staff have worked there.

Even so, there are thousands of people of all kinds in the imperial city.

When I get off work, it's literally a huddle, with people everywhere.

A street outside the imperial city was full of sedan chairs, including official sedan chairs and hired sedan chairs, which crowded the street into a vegetable market.Fortunately, officials have grades, so they won't be unable to walk.

As a low-level official, Su Mu naturally had to wait until the end.

According to the rules of the General Administration Department, a governor must be on duty every day.

Speaking of which, there is nothing to do in the yamen on weekdays, let alone midnight.However, in case there are any emergencies in the local area, if there is an urgent delivery or something, if there is no one at that time, the basket will be opened up.

Of course, if there is a major military event, the courier shop will definitely send the urgent report directly to the cabinet. How can it be delayed at the Secretary of General Administration?The problem is, if you are not afraid of [-], you are afraid of just in case.

Governor Li was on duty today, so strange to say, but Governor Weng volunteered.When it was time to get off work, he also borrowed a few collections of Shiwen that Su Mu had in hand.I also asked the book office for some tea, saying it was for refreshment.

No need to ask, the old governor is going to stay up late for tutoring.

Governor Weng is so hard-working, driving like a backwater.The other governors naturally laughed and said, "Master Weng, are you really going to take the Jinshi examination?"

"What to do so hard, we are not willing to suffer this kind of hardship."

"I don't have that confidence either, so I don't bother."

Even though he said that, Su Mu could tell that everyone was tense.While waiting for the bus to go out of the city, some people even secretly took out their books to take a few glances.

Once someone finds out, he smiles awkwardly and says, "I'm idle and bored, just watch and play."

In the words, he refused to admit that he had already moved his heart for Chun Wei next year.

Su Mu saw it and felt amused.

Everything is moving forward as he imagined, and there are still three and a half months before the next year's exam.It's still too late to study now.In a few days, once the governors start formally preparing for the exam, they probably won't be in the mood to hide it.

At that time, it will be the time for Su Mu to control the entire economic department.

After waiting for a long time, I finally got a sedan chair, and when I got home, the sky was already dim.

In Beijing, the dawn is early, and it is also dark early.

There are goose-feather-like snowflakes floating in the sky, it is already the middle of winter, Governor Weng is on duty in the Yamen today, it must be very cold, right?

The house seemed very quiet today, half an hour before dinner.

All the houses and courtyards were lit, and the orange-red light seemed particularly warm.

Taking off his official uniform, Su Mu went to the study, and asked Zhao Hulu who was beside him, "Hulu, where is Xiaodie?"

Zhao Hulu had a smile on his face: "Master, Miss Xiaodie is not here?"

"Oh, where did you go? It's so late, why aren't you at home?" Su Mu was a little upset, but after thinking about it, it's only around [-] pm Beijing time in later generations. If it's a modern society, this point is still early, no Few people are still working overtime.

"Go shopping?"

"Oh, you go to the kitchen to have a look, my lord, I'm really hungry." After eating poorly at noon, and it was winter, Su Mu felt a little unbearable.

"Okay, the villain will go now." Zhao Hulu still smiled all over his face, but in the end, he winked a little and didn't leave.

"What's the matter, it's so strange to laugh like this, but is there something I'm hiding from my master?" Su Mu felt strange and couldn't help asking.

"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Zhao Hulu suppressed his smile and looked uncomfortable, pointing to a stack of manuscripts on the desk, and said: "This is the article written by the master yesterday, and it has been revised."

"Oh, Mr. Wu has already revised it." Su Mu picked up the stereotyped essay he wrote yesterday from the table, but just after taking a look, he burst out laughing and turned back to shout at the screen in the study : "Miss Wu, come out!"

That's right, the article has been edited, and it's covered in dense small letters. Who else is it if it's not Ms. Wu's handwriting?

I think that in the small courtyard of Long Zai's house, Su Mu's articles were all revised by Ms. Wu, so I can see her handwriting naturally.

"Ziqiao, how do you know that the concubine is back, and how do you know that I am in the study?"

When the clear and soft voice came, a graceful and gorgeous figure came out from behind the screen.

In an instant, the whole study room seemed to be lit up.

Who is it if it's not Ms. Wu?

Su Mu was overjoyed, jumped up suddenly, and grabbed Miss Wu's little hand: "You really came back, it's been almost a year, are you okay?"

As he spoke, he looked Miss Wu up and down.

Compared with when we broke up in Beijing, Ms. Wu is fatter and whiter.Because of this, it shows a unique beauty of calmness and atmosphere that people dare not desecrate.

Being grabbed by Su Mu, Miss Wu didn't blush as before.Instead, he boldly looked at Su Mu and smiled calmly: "Zi Qiao..."

It was only then that Su Mu realized that there was still Zhao Hulu in the study, and quickly let go of Miss Wu's hand, "Hulu, go to the kitchen to remind me, my lord is very hungry."

Seeing his master holding hands with his wife, Zhao Hulu buried his head in fright.

Hearing that Su Mu told him to leave, he ran out in a panic as if he had been pardoned.But he didn't want to, because he was flustered, and fell to the ground as soon as he went out.

Su Mu and Miss Wu burst out laughing at the same time.

Ms. Wu: "Gourd, the master likes meat and meat, which has a strong taste, so ask the kitchen to make more oily and watery dishes."

Zhao Hulu got up from the ground in a jerk, with a blank expression on his face: "Master, isn't he going to eat fast these days?"

Miss Wu: "Just do it."

"Yes, ma'am."

Looking at Zhao Hulu's back, Su Mu smiled: "Miss Wu, you know how to run a family. Not long after I came back, everyone called you Mrs. It seems that I, Su Mu, will never be able to escape your grasp in my life. gone."

Then Miss Wu blushed: "Zi Qiao, don't talk nonsense, I just sent your manuscript over for my father."

Su Mu: "Do you know how I knew you were behind the screen in the study?"

"How do you know?" Ms. Wu was amazed.

Su Mu sniffled: "You have a scent of orchids on your body. When I was in Long's house, I smelled it well. Even if you are separated by a mile, I can still smell it. .”

"Zi Qiao, you're talking nonsense again." Miss Wu fell to her feet and looked annoyed, but her heart felt sweet.

After a long while, he bowed his head and said, "I'm fine. I just miss my father and want to go back to the capital."

"Don't you miss me?"

"Zi Qiao, if you continue to speak stupid words, I... I, I, I will go to Nianzu immediately."
