The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination
Chapter 1121: Tea Party Because of a Letter
Sun Shan mentioned many people in his thick stack of letters. The most important ones were asking Huang, Sun Bomin and Su to take care of their health, and thanking Sister Yun for helping to take care of his parents. He also mentioned that he missed his little fat sister very much and hoped that his little girl Xiaoxiao would eat well and grow up quickly.
Sun Shan mentioned everyone equally, including Uncle Sun and Aunt Sun, and even the village chief.
Let the village chief take good care of himself and wait for him to return home in glory and bring honor to his family.
When the village chief heard that Sun Shan mentioned him in the letter, he hurried to the Sun family's old house after dinner.
He asked anxiously, "Xiaoxiao's mother, did Shanzi really mention me? What did he say to me?"
The village chief can read and write, but he is old and his eyes are blurry, so it is very difficult for him to read.
Now all the business dealings in the village are handled by my son.
The village chief's idea is very simple and justified. He will be the village chief for his family, and after he is done, his son will take over, and after his son is done, his grandson will take over.
Now that I have my eyes on the eldest grandson and Sun Shan, I will choose the second grandson to be the one.
Some people would like to challenge this method of inheritance from father to son and grandson to grandson, but they need the ability to do so.
But the capable Doctor Sun was not interested in doing it.
Whether he is the village chief or not, he can act arrogantly in Sunjia Village.
Yun Jieer saw that the village chief was beaming with joy, but she only mentioned Sun Shan's letter casually, which really did not live up to the village chief's expectations.
Yun Jie'er had no choice but to use her subjective initiative to add more details, embellishing the story with exaggerated words: "Village Chief, Brother Shan told you in his letter to take good care of yourself. Sunjia Village cannot survive without you. Brother Shan, you should be a good official outside and provide protection for Sunjia Village, while you, old man, should take good care of the villagers and manage Sunjia Village well."
The village chief said cheerfully, "I understand what Shanzi means. When you write back, tell him I will take good care of myself, look after Sunjia Village, and keep the villagers in check. I won't let them tarnish Shanzi's reputation, let alone hinder Sun Shan. Humph, if anyone uses Shanzi's official reputation to do anything wrong, I'll beat them to death."
He also made a beating motion to increase the brutality.
Yun Jieer nodded and smiled: "Village Chief, Brother Shan said in the letter that you will definitely understand what he meant. He said that you, a village chief with high moral character, high age, and great prestige, will definitely take good care of Sunjia Village and let him work as an official in other places with peace of mind.
Shan Ge also said that being an official requires not only to do a good job in the front hall, but also to manage the backyard well.
Sunjia Village is Shan Ge's backyard, so we must not let it get into trouble. If we encounter political enemies, they might start from Sunjia Village and bring down Shan Ge.
There were many officials in the imperial court who were implicated because their relatives or clansmen committed crimes.
So, village chief, you must take good care of yourself. With you here, no one in Sunjia Village dares to commit crimes. You have a heavy responsibility, and Sunjia Village cannot do without you. "
After Sister Yun said this, the village chief nodded repeatedly: "Shanzi is right, Sunjia Village really can't do without me. Without me watching over it, the villagers below will definitely rebel."
At this moment, the village chief, who originally thought he was old, suddenly felt that he was still young and could still serve as the village chief for a very long time.
I had originally handed over a lot of business to my son, but tomorrow I will take it back and handle it myself.
Sun Shan is the only official in Sunjia Village in a hundred years, and he is also the only hope of Sunjia Village. They must cooperate well with Sun Shan to help him get promoted and make money, and bring blessings to future generations and Sunjia Village.
The village chief said firmly: "Xiaoxiao's mother, when you write the letter, tell Shanzi that with me in Sunjia Village, everything will be peaceful and stable. Let him work as an official outside without any worries."
Sister Yun quickly agreed: "Don't worry, Village Chief, I will definitely convey your message to Brother Shan."
Then the village chief remembered his eldest grandson, Sun Dingnan, and asked, "Where's my Anan? Did he write back?"
Yun Jieer explained, "Village Chief, the men in Sunjia Village don't write letters because they're difficult to carry. But don't worry, they're all safe and sound, working alongside Brother Shan, and doing a great job. Brother Shan is very satisfied."
Thanks to bringing so many men with him to take up his post, Brother Shan was able to do so smoothly. Brother Shan is very grateful to the village chief for his good selection of candidates.
Of course, these words were added by Sister Yun herself.
However, we must thank the village chief for selecting so many loyal men, which enabled Sun Shan to win the victory and survive safely in the siege of the bandits.
When the village chief heard this, his old face was even more glorious, and he said with a smile: "Okay, okay, okay, that's why we need to bring so many people with us to help Shanzi do his work well."
Sun Bomin, Second Uncle Sun, and Third Uncle Sun took the village chief and invited several village elders and relatives of those who had come with Sun Shan to join the tea party.
Sister Yun quickly arranged for the servants to pour tea and water, and also prepared a lot of melon seeds, peanuts, cakes, candies and fruits.
Just because of Sun Shan's letter, the village held a serious meeting, which shows that they attach great importance to every little thing about Sun Shan.
There were many old women around Huang.
Su was holding the little fat girl, and she was surrounded by middle-aged wives of the same age.
Sister Yun was busy running around, and she didn't play with her young wife. Instead, she took care of the boys and girls in the village.
Huang said with peace of mind, "Shan-tzu has taken up his post smoothly, and I feel much more at ease. I went to Guanyin Mountain today to pray for blessings, and I received a letter of safety right away. I will have to go there more often from now on."
Aunt Li quickly agreed: "Shanzi's grandmother, you are right. The gods of Guanyin Mountain are very powerful. It's a long way, but it works."
The old women talked a lot about their opinions on Guanyin Mountain, and many people thought it was magical.
The women around Su all complimented her.
Aunt Sun smiled and said, "Shanzi wrote back to tell me he's safe, sister-in-law, you can rest assured."
Su said proudly, "Of course. I was very worried when my son Shanzi was serving as an official in another place. Now that he has successfully taken office and become the county magistrate, I can rest assured."
He was referring to Sun Shan as the county magistrate. What could they say? They could only put on a smile.
Hu Ming learned that his adoptive father mentioned him in the letter and asked him to study hard and strive to pass the imperial examination.
He straightened his chest and said, "Wutou, Niu Niu, Xiatou, your godfather also mentioned you in the letter, asking you to study hard and not play around."
Shrimp Head nodded repeatedly and said, "Hu Ming, I will."
Wutou and Cowboy face across.
Reading, reading, and reading again. Can’t we talk about anything else?
The two college losers felt the incomparable pain deeply. They really wanted Shan Shu's letter not to mention them, and they didn't want Shan Shu to worry about them at all.
The Sun family's old house was brightly lit and noisy because of Sun Shan's letter.
Everyone was discussing Sun Shan at once.
Finally, Big Head Dog's father and mother repeatedly asked Yun Jie'er to write a reply to find a wife for Big Head Dog.
It can be seen that parents are really worried about their children's marriage.
Which little fat girl is suitable?
Which little fat girl looks most like you?
