Chapter 100 Zhong Xu
Zhou Yu frowned, "Is there a next time?"

Yang Xi raised his hand to assure, "No, no next time."

So stop talking about her.

In the end, Zhou Yu left, and he couldn't afford to delay going to Yizhou. It was only safe to go early and return early, because the move had already delayed time.

This time, Yang San went with him. The two rode away on horseback, but Li Zheng didn't take them with him. He wanted to come back as soon as possible.

A few days after Zhou Yu left, Zhong Xu returned to the county seat. The dam was completed. The government sent people to inspect. Zhong Xu returned to Shanghe Village, and the laborers who served in corvée had already returned to the village.

Zhong Xu brought back the news, "There were no casualties in the corvée service this year, and my father won the top award."

Yang Xi, "It really should be rewarded."

Brother Zhong did not give up the seriously ill people. Not only did the county doctor stay at the dam, but he also invited the doctor in the county to see a doctor. The people were grateful to Brother Zhong.

Zhong Xu continued: "I also checked the accounts of the county government office, and secretly said that my father shouldn't waste money, said that the wages were too high this year, and said that the money for soup and medicine should not be spent."

Zhong Yan patted the table, "Damn."

Zhong Xu was also very angry. He was taught since childhood that he wanted to be a good official like his grandfather and father, and saw a corrupt official who had to treat the people as human beings.

A boy who was only 12 years old, just when he was full of sense of justice, Zhong Xuqi's eyes were red.

Yang Xi was concerned, "The prefect has already regarded Ruizhou as his territory?"

Zhong Yan sneered, "I'm really impatient."

Yang Xi asked, "Is there any money in the bank account of the county government?"

The anger on Zhong Xu's face disappeared, and there was a smile on his face, "There's not much, it's just enough to maintain daily life. If the government wants to raise money, there's no money left."

Yang Xi smiled and said, "Brother did a good job."

The age that Zhong Xu admired his father the most, the young man sat upright and looked proud.

Zhong Xu thought for a while and asked, "Grandpa, the prefect won't be embarrassed, right?"

Zhong Yan stroked his beard, "Don't you all reward your father?"

Zhong Xu was relieved, "Grandpa, Dad told me not to go to the county school. He told me to accompany you and study with Uncle Zhou when Uncle Zhou came back."

Zhong Yan felt Yang Xi's gaze, and the old man looked away naturally, cough, he secretly told his son what Zhou Yu said to his son. After his son was surprised, he decided that his grandson would come to study in Hecun.

Yang Xi thought to himself, there are too many people who know the goods, and the population of their own family is increasing.

Zhong Yan changed the subject, "The county trial is about to start, can Zhou Yu come back?"

Yang Xi, "Zhou Bing doesn't need to worry about it, it's just that he doesn't know how to take the county test."

When Zhou Yu left, he didn't think about Zhou Bing, he didn't mention it, and he wouldn't rush back for Zhou Bing to take the county test.

Zhong Yan stroked his beard, okay, Zhou Bingxian's test is indeed fine.

The next day, Wu Shan and his wife came to the house, Yang Xi saw Wu Shan tidying his hair, and after watching for a long time, Li said: "I did it, I should have come back when I returned to the village, and my younger brothers and sisters can also think of the environment of Datongpu. I cleaned up the head of the house well at home, so I dared to bring him here."

Yang Xi understood in seconds that it was infected with lice, "The environment is like this, there is no way."

Mrs. Li herself is a neat and clean person. Back then, in the Beijing refugee area, none of their family got lice. She couldn't bear it herself. If she hadn't been able to shave her head, she would have wanted to shave the head of the family, a man whose copper plate was broken into half flowers. She didn't feel bad for the copper plate that bought the powder at all, and she didn't let the boss go until there were no more lice.

Wu Shan touched his nose unnaturally. His clothes were still soaked and sprinkled with a lot of medicinal powder. His wife told him to wash it by himself.

Yang Xi looked at Wu Shan and said to Mrs Li, "Big brother didn't suffer a serious crime, sister-in-law should be happy."

Li Shi was indeed happy, and thanked him with a wide-eyed smile, "Thanks to Mr.

Yang Xi was sincere to the Wu family, "Our two families have a close relationship, and we will see you if you say thank you."

Mrs. Li came today not only to thank you, but also for business, "Recently, the bamboo shoots are growing fast. Now that the boss is back, we want to dig more bamboo shoots. I want to dry more bamboo shoots. Do my younger brothers and sisters need dried bamboo shoots? I will dry more if needed. "

Yang Xi, "If you want it, my sister-in-law will keep what she eats, and send the rest to me. I want it all."

"Brother and sister, there are a lot of dried bamboo shoots."

Yang Xi said, "Our family eats more."

Buying dried bamboo shoots from Wu's family is enough for her own, so she doesn't need to buy dried bamboo shoots from other people.

Yang Xi thought of Ye Shun, Ye Shun had already gone to be the accountant, Wu Shan didn't come back, she didn't talk to Mrs. Li alone, and now she just said, "Ye Shun can settle accounts when he is a merchant, and he can watch the business when he is an accountant, because he is suitable, so Let him be the accountant."

It is too difficult for the carpenter to fool Ye Shun. Ye Shun is familiar with the tricks of business. Ye Shun sees the carpenters being very honest. Recently, Yang San is not at home. Ye Shun will come back and talk about the daily business.

Yang Xi has an account book in mind, and the dividend is divided once a month, and 20% of the profit can be divided into [-] taels. It can be seen that the recent sales have been hot, and he feels that Xiangxian is rich.

Wu Shan heard about it when he came back, "I understand."

None of their family is a business person, there are too many twists and turns in it, Ye Shun is the most suitable, but some envy Ye Shun for being reused by the Zhou family so quickly.

Wu Shan and his wife went home after sitting for a while.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the Tongsheng test. Zhou Yu and Yang San didn't come back. Zhou Bing and Liu Lizheng's eldest grandson went to the county town. Zhou Xiaodi and Liu Lizheng sent them there.

There are eight people in the village who have taken the county exam. In a village of more than 200 households, the proportion of scholars is very high.

Zhong Yan has been wandering around the village a lot recently, and he has already figured out the village, "Not all villages are like Shanghe Village. Shanghe Village has a good geographical location. , there is only one scholar in the village."

Yang Xi, "The proportion of reading books is also very high."

How many villages in the north do not have a single child, let alone a scholar!
Zhong Yan stood with his hands behind his back, "Hey, I hope to be admitted to the Xiucai, and the new dynasty will recognize them."

Yang Xi raised her eyebrows, "Aren't you optimistic about King Jiang?"

Zhong Yan half-smiled, "Are you optimistic about him?"

Yang Xi shook his head, "I'm not optimistic about him."

Although King Jiang is powerful, once the world is in chaos, it will be the power of King Jiang who will be overthrown. King Jiang will have a future to resist, and he will not end well if he can't resist. She doesn't want King Jiang to win.

Zhong Yan, "It's too early to say what the future will be. Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. It's not clear yet, and it will be clearer when the chaotic people enter Beijing."

Yang Xi sighed. At that time, various forces will inevitably occupy the land and separate the territory. Who doesn't want to compete for the highest power in the chaos?
After the county exam, Zhou Yu and Yang San didn't come back. The results of the county exam came out. Zhou Bing took the second and Liu Lizheng's eldest grandson was fifth, with good grades.

Only Zhou Bing was depressed, "I thought I could get the first name."

Younger Brother Zhou, "You're still sloppy."

"I'm not sloppy."

Yang Xi, "Eat."

The two stopped talking, and ate honestly. Yang Xi didn't bother about rankings. She always knew the truth of others!
