high official

Chapter 115

Member Yang saw Wang Xian, and Wang Xian also saw him.

Seeing the culprit, Wang Xian's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Member Yang stared back at him not to be outdone.

Wang Xian pointed like a knife and slashed across his throat, and there was a trace of cruelty in his sneer.

Although it was mid-spring in the south of the Yangtze River, the warm wind was intoxicating, but Yang Yuanwai felt chills all over his body, and he couldn't help shivering...

The horse-drawn carriages staggered past and continued to drive a few streets, Yang Yuanwai came back to his senses, and immediately laughed at himself, I am not even afraid of the county magistrate, afraid of an official doing something?

But after thinking about it, I was a little worried. It is said that Wang Er should be seeking help in Suzhou now, and he was in a state of desperation. Why did he come back so soon?
Could it be that he retreated in spite of the difficulties?How could you be so arrogant?Could it be that he couldn't afford to lose, hated him so much, and wanted to retaliate?

The more Yang Yuanwai thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, so he decided to tell his family members not to cause trouble during this time, so as not to become a punching bag for others.

However, the small episode was not enough to affect Yang Yuanwai's mood. When the carriage drove into the house, his face was full of smiles again. Yes, today is a day that must be celebrated with great fanfare. Let's talk about those trivial matters in two days. .

Sure enough, the house was full of laughter and laughter, and everyone's faces were beaming.What's even more exaggerated is that, I don't know who's idea, even decorated with lanterns and festoons, making it look like Chinese New Year!
Dozens of members of the whole family were waiting for him to come back in the main room, discussing excitedly which hilltops they should want, and at the same time making their own calculations to see how many acres they could get.

Yang Yuanwai got off the carriage in the sedan hall, and the whole family got up together, put on the most affectionate smiles, and used the sweetest words to surround him in the ocean of love, almost drowning Yang Yuanwai who hadn't slept all night .

In the end, it was his younger brother who came to his rescue and said: "Brother is tired, please invite him to take a rest first, and then talk to everyone during the lunch."

Everyone echoed: "It's the extreme, the most important thing is to rest, you can't tire the uncle..."

Yang Yuanwai was able to return to the back house, and saw the housekeeper coming up to meet him, and reported in a low voice, "Master Suzhou has sent someone here."

"Oh?" Yang Yuanwai became energetic immediately, "Where is it?"

"Invited him to the master's study."

"Don't tell me sooner!" Yang Yuanwai took three steps and made two steps. As soon as he stepped into the study, he smiled enthusiastically: "Haha, I said why the magpies are always making trouble in the morning. It turns out that Brother Zhang is here." It's just Yang Tongzhi's long-term follower, but Yang Yuanwai didn't dare to neglect him at all, he was closer than seeing his own brother.

"Hehe, you're being polite." The big brother Zhang didn't laugh, and said in a low voice, "Are you sure that's a magpie, not an old raven?"

"Oh...hahaha..." Yang Yuanwai laughed loudly: "Unexpectedly, Big Brother Zhang also likes to tell jokes."

"I never tell jokes." Brother Zhang still said with a straight face: "I am here to deliver a letter to Yuanwai by the order of my elder."

"Oh?" Member Yang had no choice but to suppress his smile and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's a message." Brother Zhang said in a deep voice, "My lord asked me to tell the staff what I said exactly. It's better for the staff to be mentally prepared."

"I'm all ears." Member Yang said solemnly.

"Okay," the eldest brother Zhang cleared his throat and said, "Yang Jian, you idiot, you are the first to be strict, but I have suffered a lot! It's not good to mess with anyone, you mess with the kid surnamed Wang!"

Member Yang was stunned when he heard this, and for a moment he couldn't remember, whose surname was Wang?Then I heard the big brother Zhang continue: "I don't care about your shit, I have already released people and boats, you can do it yourself. In addition, I would like to advise you, if you have any grievances, you should settle them in the county. Don't make a big deal, or I will I can't save you, no one can save you... Besides, let Lao Zhang slap you twice for me to relieve my hatred."

Brother Zhang finished repeating, seeing Yang Yuanwai was stunned for a long time, so he coughed lightly, "I offended you, Yuanwai." As he said that, he swung his arms and slapped him, causing Yang Yuanwai's face to be deformed.

Brother Zhang slapped his backhand again, his face deformed in the opposite direction, and two bright red palm prints appeared on his cheeks.

Yang Yuanwai didn't care about the nosebleeds, he held Big Brother Zhang's hand, and said in panic, "Brother Zhang, what's going on? Wang Er, a mere official, how can the elder be so afraid?"

"It's true that he's a petty official, but his background is strong." Brother Zhang usually has the benefits of Yang Yuanwai, so he had to point him out: "Even the elder can't be offended."

"Ah!" Yang Yuanwai was completely shocked, "How is it possible? Didn't the Eldest Master say that he can't afford to offend the whole world without one hand?"

"It's a pity that he is one of them." Big Brother Zhang sighed: "I'll tell you the truth, don't spread it to the outside world... I don't know what shit happened to Wang Xian, but Eunuch Zheng spoke for him."

"Which Eunuch Zheng?" Member Yang said with wide-eyed eyes.

"Which Eunuch Zheng is there?" Brother Zhang said, "It's Ma Sanbao who led my Daming Navy to the West three times."

"Ah..." Yang Yuanwai's face gradually swelled up, and his expression became more and more ugly: "Eunuch Zheng is the chief executive, a figure on the clouds of the Ming Dynasty, how could he know Xiaoluo like Wang Er?"

"It's not just you who find it strange." Brother Zhang said with a wry smile, "My Eldest Master can't figure it out either." After a pause, he said, "But my Eldest Master won't mistake anyone. The most trusted vassal, even His Royal Highness the King of Han respects him three points, so my grand lord will naturally give him face and let the ship go."

"How could this happen?" Yang Yuanwai slumped on a chair and murmured, "Who can offend Sanbao eunuch?"

"Don't worry too much." Brother Zhang comforted him and said, "Who is Eunuch Zheng? How can he care about a little mess in your county. My old man said, what should you do in the county? Let him teach Wang a good lesson, as long as he doesn't punish him to death, everything will be fine."

"That's good, that's good..." Yang Yuanwai nodded slowly, and couldn't help saying with great joy: "Fortunately, the contract has been completed, and it won't help if he comes back."

"That's good." Brother Zhang nodded and said: "Master doesn't want anything this time, you can do it yourself." After finishing speaking, he took his leave and left.

Member Yang hurriedly sealed the money, said a few words of gratitude, and sent Brother Zhang away.I don't know what to thank him for?Thank him for beating himself into a pig's head?

It was almost noon when I sent Brother Zhang back, the banquet had been prepared, and the family members were waiting for him.His brother came to invite him to dinner, but saw that both sides of his face were swollen like hair cakes...

"What's up, big brother..."

"I fell." Yang Yuanwai said angrily.

"You can only fall on one side, why did you fall on both sides?"

"After falling, it hit the wall again." Member Yang said angrily, "What the hell are you asking!"

"Then do you still want to eat?" He said in a brotherly heart, probably not eating.

"Fuck you." Yang Yuanwai took the bamboo hat from the butler, got into the carriage, and said to the coachman, "Go to Li Yuanwai's house!"

.

In that room, Wang Xian also returned to the Yamen.

Seeing him, Wei Zhixian burst into tears, grabbed Wang Xian by the collar and said, "You came back half a day early, why did you come here?"

"This subordinate has been traveling day and night." Seeing that he was emotional, Wang Xian didn't pat his hand away.

"That's the inhumanity of heaven," Wei Zhixian said with tears, "I just sold the land yesterday."

"Just sold it?" Wang Xian asked in surprise, "Didn't the teacher sell the land a long time ago?"

"The elder has always insisted on refusing to sell it at a low price, until the county ran out of food and the people started to riot, so he had to compromise." Wu Wei sighed aside.

"Oh, the old man still doesn't believe my words." Wang Xian also sighed, "Did you forget my original promise?"

"I haven't forgotten what you said. You promised to sell the official land, but you didn't really give it to them. You just let them pass it by. When our grain arrives, you can take the land back." Wei Zhixian said again He sighed and said, "But those big households are as greedy as wolves. How can they spit out what they eat? I'm worried that if you miscalculate, the county will suffer a great loss."

"What if there are knives hidden in the meat?" Wang Xian sneered, "Those Zhongshan wolves will vomit if they don't!"

"How do you say it?" Wei Zhixian perked up.

"Bring the contract." Wang Xian stretched out his hand.Wei Zhixian quickly opened the drawer and took out the deed that he regarded as a shame.

Wang Xian read it carefully, and then he was completely relieved and said, "Fortunately, the main terms have not changed!"

"Of course," Wei Zhixian said with a wry smile, "Master, I have never forgotten what you said. Even if I want to keep a glimmer of hope, I dare not change the terms you set."

"Yeah." Wang Xian nodded excitedly, pointed to the terms on the contract and said, "I'm afraid they only bought the [-] mu of farmland, but didn't buy the [-] mu of fake land! Wait until you have a stomachache."

"Fake field?" Wei Zhixian and Wu Wei both stared and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Could it be Sanada?" Wang Xian asked back: "The hilltops planned on those blueprints, do they now have shadows of terraced fields?"

"It's just a barren mountain." Wu Wei understood a little bit, and said with a light in front of his eyes. "What does Sihu mean, that the civilian husband is not allowed to continue to open the fields?"

"But it's already written into the contract." Wei Zhixian is a gentleman after all, shaking his head and said: "How can the government break its trust?"

"We didn't say we can't open it, but we won't open it temporarily." Wang Xian said lightly: "There is no way, because April is here."

"April is here?" Wei Zhixian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said: "Yes, work must be suspended."

In Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, April is called "Silkworm Moon". As the name suggests, it is a critical month for silkworms to weave silk and make cocoons.The so-called foundation of kingship lies in agriculture and mulberry, and mulberry is sericulture and textiles. Especially for the generation of Zhejiang and Zhejiang, it is the overriding top priority.Almost every family in the south of the Yangtze River raises silkworms. Sericulture is a delicate job. The silkworm seedlings are delicate and sensitive to temperature, humidity, smell and sound.Therefore, raising silkworms is a physical labor. At this time, the whole family has to work together to take care of them day and night, and there is no one on the street.

For this reason, the government expressly stipulates that Canyue is not allowed to marry or mourn, or to make noise, and even husband and wife are forbidden to share the same bed, visit friends, and speak loudly.As for the government itself, the levy was also suspended.It is also stipulated that, except for the necessary personnel on duty in the yamen, all go home to serve the baby silkworm...
