Chapter 224 Your grandma will always be your grandma

Xu Tianxin is not worried about her single tax. She starts paying it at the age of 16 and it only increases every year. She can afford to pay it for three melons and two dates.

But she is worried about the marriages of girls over 16 in the village.

If you don't meet the right partner, do you have to get married?

And if she doesn't get married, how many parents would really be willing to pay this amount of money to their daughter.If there are dozens of people in the family, wouldn't other relatives complain?

Unless the value created by the daughters’ families is greater than the tax money.

Xu Tianxin was thinking about what he could do for these daughters' families, and help each one without affecting himself.

Probably because he was too immersed in his thoughts, the book in Xu Tianxin's hand slipped.

Jiubao hurriedly took a step forward, taking it very seriously and wiping the snowflakes on it with his sleeves.

"I'm sorry. I actually dropped the book given by the general." Xu Tianxin quickly apologized out of courtesy.

Here, everything given by the royal family is offered, and incense is offered several times a day.The slightest disrespect is called gross disrespect and one will be beheaded.

In the same way, she should be cautious about Huo Yunqian's official gift.

In fact, being able to meet an official of Huo Yunqian's status and become a guest is already a sign of smoke rising from ancestral graves in the eyes of outsiders.Not to mention that it was really inappropriate for her to drop the books on the floor while others would be grateful for the books given by her own hands.

Jiubao saw that Xu Tianxin had misunderstood.

He behaved this way not because he felt that dropping the book had offended his master.

But this set of books is really precious.

"What the girl doesn't know is that this set of books is not in the market and cannot be bought with any amount of gold and silver. It is said that the contents inside are unique. Even the serious masters of the Huo family want to keep this set of books by their side. , it also needs to be copied word by word. The original version is in the library of the Huo family's ancestral home. And the book in your hand was copied by the general in one stroke, seven copies in total."

When Xu Tianxin heard this, he quickly took the book back from Jiubao's hand.

She held the oil-paper umbrella between her neck, opened two pages, and asked Jiubao in a shocked tone: "Then why did the general give it to me?"

Jiubao thought: If only I knew the reason.

Otherwise, why would he have such random guesses about the young master's thoughts towards Miss Xu? It's abnormal for such books to be loaned out.

Xu Tianxin asked: "Then who is the author of this original work?"

Jiubao looked at the falling snowflakes in the distance and decided to go out of his way and tell the truth.

"I wonder, young lady, do you know some rumors about the change of imperial power in this dynasty?"

Xu Tianxin actually heard a few words when he was in Fucheng.It's just that the people lamented it, and it's very obscure to mention.Otherwise, we can compile history across generations. I dare not say more.

But these few words I heard, combined with the last time I was in the car with Bai Muyan, the two of them gossiped about the doctor while no one could hear, and then they gossiped about political affairs.

Sure enough, there can't be two kinds of people in the same car. If she and Bai Muyan really started talking nonsense, they could chat all night long.

I heard that the current emperor is not a serious heir.

The last emperor was his brother, who only reigned for six years and then died.

During his several years in office, he was tolerant and magnanimous, appointed capable ministers, and devoted himself to solving the problems of Japanese and Japanese captivity in the south and north.

There are many secrets in the royal family. I don't know if the reform has disturbed the great pastries of the family, causing his younger brother, who is now the emperor, to die at the hands of the cabinet along with several rebel cabinet ministers.Or is it true that he died of sexual intercourse with women as the rumors say.

In short, in his short life, the previous emperor was full of ambitions and died without leaving a son and a half.His younger brother took advantage of the chaos and ascended the throne.

"I heard a few words."

Jiubao sighed first, this is not an ordinary girl, she still understands all the messy things even though she is in the countryside.That's good, the girl can understand what you say next.

"The emperor and his courtiers were once demoted. Several courtiers were demoted, including a bachelor who was imprisoned for eight years. Although the Huo family has a rich family, in order to avoid this, they also rushed back to their ancestral home.

Even in this situation, the Huo family did not sit idly by.

Because the old man once commented that they are all heroic people who can break jade but not change its whiteness, and burn bamboo but not destroy its integrity.

Therefore, the Huo family tried every means to keep those who were obedient and aboveboard, and provided another way out.

Let them not waste their time in the future, and they can finally achieve their wishes even in adversity.

These people are still willing to spend their entire lives for China even without any official title. "

Jiubao pointed to the book in Xu Tianxin’s hand:
“Just writing books.

This set of books was jointly written by 27 extraordinary people who traveled all over the country.

Young people are not as lucky as girls and are qualified to read it.But I have heard of it.In fact, the girl doesn't know, and what she heard is not something that ordinary people can listen to. I am very lucky.

This set of books records the geology of China's mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, as well as the ins and outs of 130 seven major rivers, as well as more than 60 waterfalls.

The description is so wonderful that it feels like being there.

Therefore, this set of books is the real travelogue of Kyushu.

And some people are no longer alive.

However, our young master said that although the body is dead, the name can be hung on bamboo and silk.Death is not the end, forgetfulness is. The books are still there, and they are still there. "

Xu Tianxin was silent.

The Huo family funded this matter. What a merit.

Let these green mountains and green waters be tamed into lines of text and passed on to future generations.

Xu Tianxin also thought of a period of history that she hated in modern times. It was said that in that dynasty, when our grand ceremony was taken away, whales fell in the East and everything in the West flourished.

Books represent thousands of years of wisdom and inheritance. No one knows how many people's wisdom has been gathered behind the unparalleled national scholars and how many difficulties have made the country prosperous, and how many historical records have been left to future generations.Just like these 27 book writers, the rivers and lakes recorded are all their hard work.

What Jiubao didn't say here was that he guessed that the gold mine in Jiapigou was left to the Huo family alone by those capable men and heroes.

After all, the emperor can be replaced, but the border cannot be broken.

It can be seen that the Huo family has already mastered many minerals, and they would have rebelled long ago, but they still haven't.

Even when the Jiapigou was activated this time, it was forced to the point where it had no choice but to move.

Because of that old fool today, the people of Jincheng took the Zhangku Avenue at the east entrance, which was the fortress trade road leading to Kulun (Ulaanbaatar), extending all the way north to the lower reaches of the Selenge River Basin.It was so important that the emperor sent a useless concubine's father to guard it.

Once it falls, what's the use of their Zhenbei Army holding it well here.

If you create a gap from that side, should you go to rescue or continue to guard?You must know that the people outside the Great Wall have always been ambitious and have been engaged in a life-and-death struggle with the Central Plains for thousands of years.They have come to kill and plunder in every dynasty, how could they stop their invasion just because of mutual trade.

His young master is already under tremendous pressure.

As if it wasn't chaotic enough now, they sent someone to help, but in fact, the officials who were the informants were about to be in place.

But Jiubao didn't say anything at this time, but Xu Tianxin's hand paused while turning the book.

It turns out that the Huo family is much more loyal to this dynasty than she imagined.

"I'd like to ask if it's inconvenient for me to tell you about the situation of the heads of the Huo family."

Jiubao told Xu Tianxin that this was no secret. The old man was enjoying his old age in his ancestral home.

It was also from that time that these 27 former officials were supported to travel all over the country to write books.But he passed away 15 years ago.The father of Xijue, the eldest young master, the second young master, and the third young master died in the war ten years ago.The mothers of the three young masters are also deceased.

The eldest young master suffered a disability in his legs during the battle that Xu Tianxin's father participated in eight years ago.

The second young master is weak but extremely talented. He is currently studying history in the capital.

The third young master is Huo Yunqian.

The very famous third son of the Huo family.

At present, the eldest young master of the Huo family is the eldest son.

There are also two direct relatives of Huo Yunqian, and Huo Yunqian's two uncles have also been away for several years and have not returned home.One is still training soldiers in his old age, and the other is guarding the place where the marsh gas is constantly growing. He is in the same position as Huo Yunqian's father before his death, but his official rank has been downgraded.

The fourth and fifth young masters were the direct descendants of the two families. One was a scholar, the other was young, and there were uncles living two rooms apart.

Many people once lamented that the Huo family suffered a big loss by not marrying the royal family.

But I also sincerely admire that the Huo family has become a wealthy family, all thanks to their outstanding military exploits.

"When I was six years old, I begged the old lady. I would rather be punished by kneeling for two nights than to be assigned to serve our young master. Otherwise, I would be assigned to a different room. Girl, you can guess why. ?"

"The general is very favored at home?"

"No, the general was beaten the most at home when he was young. He is stubborn."

Xu Tianxin was amused.

Jiubao regretted how he mentioned this so casually.

Then she told Xu Tianxin seriously: Huo Yunqian is the only one with the best future.The servants in other courtyards are at most housekeepers, so they are easy to use.

His master would never restrict their development just because they were easy to use.

Many times, I would take them to practice martial arts and calligraphy together.

If those of them who can be used are really talented in leading troops and fighting, their young master will be able to become generals or commanders.The person who used to be the personal attendant of their general is now a general under his command.

Don't underestimate this matter, it's very difficult for a master to do this.

Responsibility, responsibility, mind, and vision determine what kind of master he is.

Jiubao wanted to use this aspect of himself to tell Miss Xu in disguise not to be afraid of their young master.For example, if you discover something, just tell him directly and don't have any scruples in the future, because the young master is more open-minded than everyone thinks.

"No wonder, you don't look like servants, but like personal guards. I'm still wondering why the general is surrounded by personal guards. I see."

Nine Treasures: "..."

That's it, no other compliments?

Have.

Xu Tianxin thought to himself: Lao Tzu said, "The highest virtue is not virtuous, which means you are virtuous; the lowest virtue is not unvirtuous, it is not virtuous."People with high moral standards are virtuous because they do not pursue formality.Just like the first time I met General Huo, he lived in a cave and did not show off.People with low morals pursue forms, so they have no actual virtue.

General Huo was indeed much more open-minded than she imagined.

In her heart, he gradually became a flesh-and-blood person, no longer a lofty rumor.

I also feel very lucky that Northland is controlled by such officials.The common people are blessed.

……

"No need to be polite..."

Huo Yunqian put down the official document and paused as he walked out.

He looked at Xu Tianxin standing next to Mrs. Xu and felt a little confused.

What happened when Xu Tianxin went to invite someone? How could he go out for a walk and become respectful to him when he came back?
He must have read it right, he was very respectful.

The expression is respectful.

"General, the daughter of the people will definitely read well, and only the daughter of the people and her grandmother will know about it, and no one will lend it to you. The daughter of the people will salute you again, thank you."

Huo Yunqian immediately understood that he knew how precious books were.

It seems Jiubao is too talkative.

Then what should he say, you're welcome, this is what you should thank.

Anyway, it’s a good read, I hope you can learn something.

It doesn't matter if you can't learn it. With your short legs, you may not have the opportunity to travel all over Kyushu and experience it.

In fact, Huo Yunqian didn't say anything, and directly waved his hand to Xu Tianxin to step aside and go outside to eat snacks first.

On this side, the first thing Mrs. Xu saw when she saw Huo Yunqian was that she quickly saluted and explained:
"General, civilian women are really blind. If it weren't for the granddaughter of a civilian woman, who just whispered to me that it was you, the civilian woman wouldn't have recognized it. People say that a gentleman loves money and gets it in a wise way. This way, after a long time, it was a civilian woman. I don’t know. I didn’t know it was you, so I dared to raise the price. I really offended you.”

Huo Yunqian pointed to the chair in front of him and asked him to sit down first.

Whether he just knew it or had already guessed it, it didn't matter in Huo Yunqian's eyes.

Being born a common man, he likes gold and silver, and his eyes light up when he hears it. This is human nature, and there is nothing wrong with it.Love money clearly and make money generously.

In the next half hour, Mrs. Xu stopped explaining the topic of 400 taels and directly asked the general, and she answered as she thought.

First, let’s answer the question about Xu Tianxin’s education.

Mrs. Xu said she was reporting some of her educational ideas, but her tone sounded like she was sharing them.

Otherwise, she must be a modern person, so she is not afraid of Huo Yunqian.

At the end, Mrs. Xu even mentioned:

"Even if there is a granddaughter of a Tianmin woman, she will give herself flowers from now on and ride on a horse to ride on the flowers to freedom. She can live however she wants. The civilian woman agrees."

Huo Yunqian: "..." No wonder Xu Tianxin has such a bad temper.

"Of course, General, you said that she should be on guard against others. You don't know how touched the civilian woman was when she heard it. Oh, thank you very much. This child is a great blessing. There are so many The protection of high-ranking officials like you was before General Jia and General Lu... A civilian woman cannot speak official language, but a civilian woman understands that this will be strengthened for her in the future."

Mrs. Xu also explained that her granddaughter was not dressed appropriately when she came to see the general. That was because her children gave all the cloth they received to other working girls in the village.It tells us the truth, goodness and beauty of our children in disguised form.

There were big holes and small holes in the front of the clothes. The old lady at home was busy sewing new clothes all day long and couldn't sew them back at all.

Huo Yunqian understood that Xu Tianxin was not wrong from the beginning to the end, and it was her grandmother and three uncles who were at fault.

Mrs. Xu's eloquent talk made Huo Yunqian couldn't help but ask about Erdaohe's situation.

"How about... the general goes into the village with the women to take a look?"

Huo Yunqian actually didn't chat enough with Mrs. Xu. They had more common topics than Xu Tianxin, "Okay."

"Isn't that feasible for a civilian woman to call her General Mu Gongzi?" Mrs. Xu stood up and asked for permission, shouldn't we keep our identity a secret?

"Row."

Xu Tianxin and Jiubao outside looked at Mrs. Xu who was not nervous at all and kept introducing the situation to Huo Yunqian, and both fell silent.
