The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

Chapter 45

In the study of the Shangshu Mansion, in the same scene, the ones who spoke became father and son.

"Father, I don't want to join the court, I want to be a local official." This was the first time Fu Qiyuan clearly expressed the word "I want" to Fu Ting, Minister of the Ministry of Industry.

After he was rescued, he opened his eyes from the drowsiness, and he was so indifferent and calm to everything in this strange environment, as if everything was illusory, he didn't care about anything, and everything could be discarded.

Fu Ting knew that his son suddenly lost all his memories, and everything in his mind was forced into him by others, and he didn't even have the chance to refuse.If it weren't for their father and son's resemblance, I'm afraid it would be difficult for him to accept him as a father.

"Why do you think so? What happened when you went to Yuzhou?" Fu Ting asked noncommittally.

"I'm not interested in government affairs, I just want to do something for the local people." Fu Qiyuan found a good reason.

"Being an official in the court can also serve the country and the people. The more power you have, the more things you can do for the people." Fu Ting refuted his son's excuses.

"Maybe my father is right." Fu Qiyuan said not very sincerely.

After a brief silence, Fu Qiyuan suddenly asked wearily: "Father is in a high position now, and he has never had any regrets in his heart? If you let father choose again, will you allow the regrets from the beginning?"

The coldest and hardest part of Fu Ting's heart seemed to be hit hard by someone, and there was a slight fluctuation.

After a long time, Fu Ting asked, "Where do you want to go?"

The corners of Fu Qiyuan's lips were slightly grooved, meeting his father's eyes, and said word by word: "Gu, Yang, County! Guyang County Magistrate's grades last year should not be bad, and he has stayed there long enough , if the father can help him move, the child will be grateful!"

Fu Ting's eyes, which were exactly the same as Fu Qiyuan's, narrowed slightly, "What did you find out?"

Fu Qiyuan laughed quite heartily, "Father don't have to worry, the child will know sooner or later what he should know and what he shouldn't know, even if that is the case, it won't affect father much, will it?"

"Yuan'er, being a father is just worrying about you, you are now a disciple of the Son of Heaven, you can't be caught by anyone!"

"The handle?" Fu Qiyuan's cold eyes were slightly sullen, "In the eyes of my father, those people who raised me will become my handle? Can the child think that as long as the child is willing, can he abandon the Shangshufu at any time?" All the burdens and shackles, let me be free?"

Fu Ting closed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "You should know that being a father does not object to you going back to fulfill your filial piety, it's just that your mother, who is stubborn, now values ​​your future more than your life, if you let her Knowing your decision, it will not be good."

"So, the baby needs the support of the father."

Fu Qiyuan watched his father calmly, as if he was an old monk, and suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. This is probably how his father dealt with his mother's problems these years, right?

Fu Ting opened his eyes and glanced at his son, said: "After three months, officials from all walks of life will go to the palace to report on their duties one after another, and we will make arrangements after my father has seen the prefect of Yuzhou."

There is an ancient temple on the outskirts of Yuzhou City. The ancient temple is close to the official road. Many vehicles will spend the night in the ancient temple before entering the city.

Yuan Wen and Qiao Sheng didn't dare to waste too much time, and they had to disregard Sanlang's health, and it took them four days to arrive outside Yuzhou City.I wanted to go to the temple to take a rest, but there were too many people, so I could only take a rest in the grove near the official road.

Then, there was this scene in front of me.

In the woods, the old and the young squatted facing each other, you feed me a sip of water, I feed you a piece of cake, you wipe my sweat, and I help you beat your legs.

Yuan Wen stood not far away and watched, the old man was just an ordinary countryman, he had nothing to worry about, so he listened to their chat without saying a word.

"Grandpa, is your leg still hurting? Let me rub it for you again!"

"It's not hurting anymore, it's not hurting anymore, you also sit down and have a rest, and have another sip of tea."

"Grandpa, your chrysanthemum tea is delicious! Let's have another cupcake, it's delicious!"

"Oh, yes, yes, hehe!"

The old and the other are eating and drinking, looking very comfortable.

After a while, the old man helped the young man tighten the fur collar around his neck, and moved his position a little to block him from the cold wind.

The younger one took out two pieces of crisp candies from his pocket, stuffed one piece into the old man's mouth, and the old and the young looked at each other and smiled.

Qiao Sheng was urging, Yuan Wen waved to Sanlang, indicating that it was time to hurry.

San Lang hurriedly helped the old man up, and helped him out from the woods.

"Brother Yuan, I picked up an old man, he can't walk anymore, let's send him back!"

What else can Yuan Wen say, we have the friendship of sharing a piece of cake, can we refuse?

Qiao Sheng also had no objection, the two of them were in charge of the journey, and he was only responsible for driving the car.

The old man was very sorry and asked them where they were going and whether it would delay their business.

Saburo was silent for a moment, looking at Yuan Wen.If he remembers correctly, he can't tell anyone about that place, otherwise it will disturb the quietness of the husband and cause trouble.

"Grandpa, I came to Yuzhou City to study, and I don't know if the teacher will accept me. We have to stay here for a while, and I will visit you when I have time and bring you delicious food!"

"Okay, okay!" The old man nodded happily.

As the carriage drove into Yuzhou City, Sanlang was dazzled by the hustle and bustle along the way, and he couldn't see it at all.

He opened his mouth wide, and let out a silent exclamation from his small mouth, but he didn't scream with excitement like other children.

The old man looked at Sanlang's expression and said with a smile, "Does it look good? How is it different from Guyang County?"

Saburo's thoughts haven't recovered yet, so he didn't find the problem in the old man's words, so he nodded honestly: "It's beautiful! It's more lively than Guyang County!"

"Do you like it here? Do you want to stay here forever?" the old man asked again.

"I like it, but I'm just studying here, and I still have to go home after I finish my studies! My mother and sister are still at home, so I have to go back!" Saburo said this to the old man, with a very serious expression.

"A good man has ambitions in all directions, you don't want to show your ambitions after you finish your studies?"

San Lang struggled to understand the meaning of the old man's words, pursed his lips, and said, "If I can't take care of my mother and sister, I won't be a good son to my mother, nor a good brother to my sister."

The old man laughed loudly, patted Sanlang's little head and nodded.

After the carriage made seven turns and eight turns in Yuzhou City, it suddenly disappeared from the busy city into an idyllic spring scene, and walking forward, a chic bamboo house appeared in sight.

Yuan Wen poked his head out and saw the inconspicuous three words "Xun Mei Zhai" engraved on the door of the bamboo house, the more he looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.
