Chapter 354 errands
Zhexue only found out later that this Li Jin was actually a woman disguised as a man.

A woman took her little granddaughter, disguised as a man, and fled from her hometown to the capital. It can be seen that she was desperate at the beginning.

When the only son and daughter-in-law in Li Jin's family died in an accident, the old man fell ill and died after lying in bed for just half a year.Leaving her and her little granddaughter behind, being bullied by the tribe and having no males in the family, there was no other way to escape.

In order to take care of her granddaughter, she disguised herself as a man and used the old man's name to wander outside.

In the past few days, Zhexue followed Lu Yange in and out of the teahouse, and when she saw Li Jin, she also admired this woman in her heart.

Seeing Zhexue's figure disappearing at the door, Lu Yange knew in his heart that this girl must have gone to find Li to go in.

The sisters-in-law who came today must be because of the troubles of the past few days, which cannot be explained clearly in a few words, so let's rest for a day and go to Li Jin tomorrow.

After sitting down, Shi told what happened at home in the past few days.

Lu Yange originally thought that they came to talk about Uncle Zhong's family, but unexpectedly, Shi Shi opened his mouth to mention the Shi family's affairs first.

"My elder brother and my second elder brother both received appointment orders. The elder brother is not far from home and works in Dangtu, which is very close to the capital. The second elder brother went to his hometown Nanyang. And my younger brother also entered the Imperial College to study."

Speaking of this, Shi couldn't help but grabbed Lu Yange's wrist, "Sister, your eldest brother said he wasn't the one he was looking for, and your second brother has been busy with Uncle Zhong's affairs recently, let alone take care of these things. Sister-in-law You are the only one who thinks about it. Did you do this?"

"Yes."

Lu Yange didn't have the habit of not leaving his name behind when doing good deeds. She wouldn't take the initiative to tell her if her sister-in-law didn't ask, but if her sister-in-law asked, she had nothing to hide.

"Really you?"

Even if Shi Shi and Shen Zhenghai thought it was Lu Yange, but she admitted it herself, she still couldn't believe it.

Lu Yange smiled and patted Shi's hand: "I just mentioned something to the emperor, it is because the elder brothers of the Shi family have their own talents that they are what they are today."

"Little sister, my sister-in-law doesn't know how to thank you."

"They are all one family, so what two families talk about."

Shi raised her hand to cover her face, and choked out a sob: "Yes, yes, we are all one family."

But she knew that if it wasn't for the younger sister, the emperor would not think of her natal family when he was busy with everything.

Although the eldest brother and the second brother both have a reputation as a scholar, but her family is from an average family, and it is not so easy to go further.

Father cruelly bought the family's house and field, also thinking that it would make them go further.

But there are so many talents in Beijing, how difficult it is to stand out.

It is difficult for the eldest brother, the second brother and the younger brother to enter a better college. It is not that Shen Zhenghai has not thought about it, and wants the eldest brother and the second brother to take a free job directly.

A few years ago, it was my father who stopped me, saying that the Shen family could not cause trouble to my aunt who was the queen at the time.

The eldest brother and the second brother participated in the Chunwei twice in a row, but they both lost their names in Sun Shan.

Perhaps it was because they were not knowledgeable enough, father Shi also took a rest and secretly asked Shen Zhenghai to see if he could find a free job.

I don't know if someone secretly obstructed it, or if the elder brother and the second brother were unlucky, Shen Zhenghai never found a suitable position.

Unexpectedly, there is news that the eldest brother is serving as the county magistrate of Tu.

This Dangtu has been known as "Jinling Barrier, Jiankang Key" since ancient times.

It's not something ordinary people can go to.

And the second brother went directly to Nanyang, which is the hometown of the Shi family, and all the ancestral graves of the Shi family are in Nanyang.

Such two errands, Shen Zhenghai couldn't get them even if he asked for them.

How could Shi not be excited.

Also, the younger brother entered the Imperial College, if it wasn't for his seniority, Father Shi would have liked to come and kowtow to Lu Yange in person.

Seeing sister-in-law crying, Dong hurriedly joked: "Sister-in-law, you are too domineering, so you are allowed to drag my little sister to say polite words, and don't let me and my little sister say thank you."

Shi Shi was interrupted by such an interruption, and also shed tears: "Here, tell me, I think you can say something today."

Although she was coquettishly blaming Mrs. Dong for disturbing her, in her heart she had accepted the affection of this sister-in-law.She came to thank the younger sister, it is unlucky to cry and cry in other people's house.

"Just say it." Dong moved a chair with a smile and placed it on the other side of Lu Yange, and smiled at Shi Shi, "Sister-in-law, drink tea, let me have a few words with my little sister."

The tears on Shi's face were not dry yet, but she still couldn't hold back a burst of laughter.

The relationship between Shi Shi and Dong Shi has always been very good. First, they are both reasonable and courteous people. Second, although they are sisters-in-law, they come from two families, and there is not much conflict of interest.

In Shen Zhenghai's generation, there were only the two brothers, if they didn't watch over and help each other, wouldn't it be tantamount to allowing others to oppress them.

"Little sister, sister-in-law three also wants to thank you for coming this time."

Something happened to Dong's family, Shen Zhenghe arrived in time, her elder brother was fine, but the dim sum shop couldn't continue to open.

During this period of time, her elder brother was disheartened, and he was still thinking that if he couldn't do it, he would go back to Nanyang.

Unexpectedly, just yesterday, the dim sum poisoning incident reversed.It turned out that someone was jealous of Dong's dim sum shop and deliberately found someone to frame his family.

Because it was the yamen servant who beat the gongs and drums and brought the villain to the door to apologize, the neighbors in the whole street saw it.

Everyone thought of the success of Dong's dim sum shop again, and persuaded Brother Dong not to return to his hometown, but to open the shop.

The Dong family has not yet agreed, but Jixiangzhai and Ruyilou, as well as the shopkeepers of the two largest teahouses in the capital, have found the Dong family dim sum shop.

The reason for the four of them to come is very simple and clear. They came to discuss cooperation with Dong's shop because the dim sum of Dong's shop is good.

These four are well-known shops in central Beijing, and if you want to book a private room, you have to make an appointment a few days in advance.

It's not that they haven't ordered dim sum from outside shops for several years, they just pick and choose and choose again, and ordinary dim sum shops can't catch the eyes of these four.

This time, Dong's dim sum shop has not yet reopened, and its reputation has spread in Beijing.

Shen Zhenghe was originally in charge of these shops in Beijing, but because the shop was entrusted to him by the emperor, he became more and more constrained in his work, and he didn't dare to let his brother-in-law's snacks in.

You know, my uncle's dim sum shop has his daughter-in-law as well.If he really wants to do this, no matter whether Dong's dim sum is good or not, others will say that he is using power for personal gain.

Shen Zhenghe was deeply afraid that if he did something wrong, the emperor and his cousin would have opinions on him.

Brother Dong was also cautious, he didn't dare to agree first, and hurriedly asked Shen Zhenghe to ask.

Shen Zhenghe was so busy because of Uncle Zhong's affairs that he was dumbfounded when he heard it.

Except for his cousin, no one has such a big right in this matter.

The whole family sat together and discussed it, and the matter became clear and clear.

Uncle Zhong's gambling debts, Shi's employment, Dong's dim sum, all these things are all due to my cousin.

This cleared the roadblocks for their Shen family, if they dragged the emperor back, it would really be unreasonable.
