Chapter 116 Promotion
After returning to the small courtyard of Jinjia Village, Wang Kuan came over.

"Girl, the servant has already asked about it today. Xu Neng is the one with the better craftsmanship in the neighboring villages. It's just that he has too much work to do and won't be free until the next year. There is another one named Zhang Chao, who is here now. I can be free, but the craftsmanship is average, and the price is slightly lower than Xu Neng."

Su Yu is now in a hurry to build a workshop and a house for incubating eggs, and these two places do not require any skills.

"I have two blueprints here. You can show them to Zhang Chao. If you can do them, let him bring someone over tomorrow. They will be built on the two-acre field to the east. I will use them urgently and ask him to find more people." ,money is not a problem."

Wang Kuan took the blueprint with both hands, saluted and then retreated. He knew the two acres of land to the east, and it would be appropriate to use the two acres of land to build a house alone. Looking at the blueprint in his hand, Wang Kuan I don't understand, these two houses don't seem to be used for living.

In the Jin Family Village, Su Yu was too busy to touch the ground, while in the capital city, this morning, the emperor personally appointed Yu Zheng as an attendant lecturer, and Yu Zheng suddenly changed from the editor of the seventh rank to the fifth rank. Bachelor of Attendance.

"Your Majesty, I have done nothing for my servants, and I deserve the position of serving as a lecturer. Please take it back, Your Majesty."

Seeing Yu Huai stand up, many courtiers immediately stood up to oppose it. This can be said to be a precedent in Dazhou. If it is their own children and descendants, it will be fine. Why is Yu Huai's son.

Seeing Yu Huai's reaction like this, Emperor Anqing knew that Yu Zheng hadn't told Yu Huai, and was somewhat satisfied with Yu Zheng.

The old god, Minister of the Ministry of War, stood in his position and looked at his nose and heart. No one knew better than him what kind of contribution the boy of the Yu family had made. The emperor promoted him to a bachelor's degree, but he felt that the promotion was too low. .

"My will is decided, you don't need to say too much."

After the emperor finished speaking, Eunuch Mao took a step forward.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat."

The emperor's attitude was so resolute. What else could the courtiers say? Of course, they said nothing.

When he came out of the palace, Yu Huai was very worried, he was not at all happy about his son's promotion, all the adults who passed by him congratulated him.

"Congratulations, Master Yu."

"congratulations."

"Master Yu is very righteous."

Yu Huai responded with a smile when someone who was very eloquent praised Gao Yi by the way. When someone said when they would go to the house for a glass of water and wine, Yu Huai just pretended not to understand.

Sitting in the carriage back home, Yu Huai unconsciously thought of the past.His parents left when he was a teenager, and he was able to study for two years after his parents passed away. One was to rely on the money left by his parents, and the other was to help the villagers. I think he has good knowledge and will be able to make great achievements in the future.

The turning point came when he attended a banquet hosted by a wealthy businessman in the town and was spotted by Mei's father, who he eventually married.Mei is a virtuous person. Although she is the daughter of a merchant, she has been raised according to the standards of a lady since she was a child. She can play a few words in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

After marrying into the family, Mrs. Mei puts him first in everything, and if the people in the village have anything, Mrs. Mei will do her best to help. Normally, he should have nothing to worry about in the days after marriage. Mei's maiden family is Xingyang The wealthy businessmen in the area didn't need him to worry about money at all, and Mei had everything covered in terms of life, but he always felt a little unhappy.

It wasn't until she was admitted to Beijing that she was admitted to Tanhua, and met Zhang's family at a colleague's banquet. At that time, Zhang's family was still a little concubine in Zhang's mansion, but she had long been known as a talented woman in Kyoto.At that time, he thought in his heart that this was the wife candidate in his mind, and he always ran into Mrs. Zhang at the next few banquets, and the two secretly fell in love.

Later, when he proposed to Mrs. Mei that she wanted to take Mrs. Zhang as his concubine, Mrs. Mei just lowered her head and thought about it before agreeing.At that time, he already had two concubines in his house. Mrs. Mei had always been generous and never cared about it. However, everything seemed to have changed after Mrs. Zhang came into the family. Mrs. Mei became depressed. Within half a year, He fell ill, and then he couldn't get sick again, but he passed away within a year.

He complained in his heart that Mrs. Mei was not magnanimous enough to tolerate even a Mrs. Zhang. He just wanted to be by Mrs. Zhang's side. Isn't the position of wife still belonged to her.Later, when he straightened Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang proposed to send the eldest son back to his hometown, he agreed after thinking about it. He really didn't want to see his eyes full of resentment every time he saw his eldest son.

He didn't think he had done anything wrong, but now that his son had been promoted, he felt inexplicably flustered.

"Master, here we are."

The carriage stopped, and the voice of the servant came from outside, which brought Yu Huai back from his thoughts.

As Yu Huai returned to the mansion, the news that Yu Zheng was promoted to a bachelor's degree was spread in the mansion. The emperor's move was undoubtedly to drop a bomb in the Yu mansion. No one was happy, the master was really unhappy, and the servants acted according to the face of the master.

Zhang's heart was full of jealousy, why did the emperor promote him just a few days after that little bastard took office?

"Madam, you can't have your cake and eat it too, it's time to make a decision."

Mrs. Zhang was vacillating between 10 taels of silver a year and the fate of Yu Zheng. When Mrs. Mei died, she wanted to solve the root of the disaster. At that time, Mrs. Mei's natal brother came to the funeral and said that as long as Yu Zheng Still, they send 10 taels of silver every year. If Yu Zheng is gone, the 10 taels of silver will be gone every year.

When Mrs. Mei married the master back then, I don't know if the Mei family was on guard against this move. The dowry given to Mrs. Mei was not much, and it might only be about ten thousand taels in total, and it would be spent when she entered the mansion. It's almost the same, and she is just a little concubine in the family. There are many sisters from concubines in the family, and the dowry is only 2000 taels. At that time, Yu's mansion can be said to be stretched. Leng might as well hear that there is an income of 10 taels of silver every year. , she agreed without any hesitation, and the Mei family has indeed sent people to send 10 taels of silver every year these years, which is why she only sent people to monitor Yu Zheng and did not kill him.

But things are different now. In the past few years, with the 10 taels per year, she also opened a few shops, and Zhuangzi also bought two or three more. The family has not had no income in these years.If he allowed that little beast to continue, when his wings hardened, mother and son might all fall into his hands.

"Mommy, let the people from Yiheyuan take action and sweep the tail clean so that the master doesn't find anything."

"Madam, don't worry, this old slave has always done things safely, and will definitely handle this matter well."
