The joy in Mrs. Ji's heart did not diminish, but she was more interested in the young disciple of Xu Shoufu whom he called, "Isn't that young disciple the junior sister that Jin'er often mentioned in front of us! Her name is Xiao Minghua, right? She's still a girl. Home."
"Yes." The head of the Ji family said, "The recipe was given by Miss Xiao. You can prepare a generous gift and send it to the Xiao Mansion tomorrow."
Ji Jin quickly reminded, "Just choose some that are suitable for little girls. There is no need to prepare others."
"That's not okay." Mrs. Ji rolled her eyes at her son, "Sure enough, he has no hair on his lips and can't do things well. When giving gifts to people's families, why are they only for little girls? Those who don't know think we are dissatisfied with them. ; But we don’t have such an idea, we have to send it how we want it to be delivered.”
"Thanks to the little girl this time, even you have benefited from it; I have to prepare a generous gift. You two are chatting while I go to the back to take stock."
Mrs. Ji led her maids away in a hurry, and the female relatives of the Ji family also dispersed one after another; those left behind were the older generation of the Ji family, some of whom were taking care of themselves in the ancestral home of the Ji family, and some of whom were idle at home. They all wanted to know about Xiao Minghua. Before, they had only heard of his name but not seen him. Unexpectedly, he quietly made a big fuss.
"Master, is the cement mentioned in the imperial edict the same thing used to lay roads outside our clan?" asked a clan elder.
The head of the Ji family nodded, "Exactly, Miss Xiao gave the formula, and Jin'er started trying it after getting it back. Unexpectedly, the attempt was successful. Today, when I entered the palace, I dedicated the formula to His Majesty. The profits from this formula in the future will be We will hand over 70% to His Majesty."
The remaining 30% is the income of the entire family.
This was also the reason why Ji Jin didn't dare to agree to Cui Changhe's request. He didn't know how much of the share would fall into the hands of the Ji family after the report was reported; he didn't dare to let go until it stabilized.
If, like now, it is only 30% and Cui Changhe gets another 10%, the Ji family will not agree.
What is on the table is what is on the table; it will be difficult for Ji Jin to take advantage of it.
"Then I should thank this girl properly. But, I heard that she is only a little girl under ten years old, but is it true?" Another clan elder said, his face was not happy, but more of a deep look.
"Where did the elders of the three clans hear this?" The head of the Ji family explained in a calm tone: "The little girl will turn eight this year. In ten years, she may not wait until ten years; the first one will appear in the court. Woman, Xu Shoufu’s vision is really vicious!”
Ji Jin didn't say anything. He was thinking about whether to go to Xingzhi Academy to attend classes in the future after getting an official position. He didn't want to give up after getting such a big benefit from his junior sister. If he went to study, he would definitely not be able to continue his official position. If you get a job, you will definitely not be able to study. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
Ji Jin didn't know when the head of the Ji family and the clan elders finished talking and left. He only heard his father calling him, and he came back to his senses with a jolt.
"Father, did you call me?"
"Well, what are you thinking about? You have been lost in thought. Those clan elders just looked at you several times." An heir cannot be distracted in public, and in front of all the elders, it will lower their attention. Ji Jin’s credibility. ….

Ji Jin shook his head and said slowly: "Father, my son is currently enrolled in Xingzhi Academy. If he takes a job, he will no longer be able to go there."
"If you can't go, then you won't go. Isn't the purpose of studying to get an official position? Now that you have an official position, you just have to serve His Majesty." I thought it was something, just a trivial matter.
Ji Jin was unwilling to give in, "If you join the job like this, you will definitely be criticized in the future; my son wants to enter the officialdom seriously."
"It's not difficult at all! While you are taking office, you can study with your master; don't delay, and wait until the scientific examination before taking part. But in this way, you will be a lonely minister in the Hanlin Academy, and you will not be able to interact with him. Others are too close." The Hanlin Academy is also related to scientific examinations, so being too close will inevitably make people think too much.
"My son knows what to do."
You can't go to Xingzhi Academy, but you can take the scientific examination while taking a job. As long as he is admitted to the Jinshi, his background will be justified, and he can win a favor in front of His Majesty. Why not?
Two flowers bloom.
Father-in-law Su Tian'er hurried to the outside of Xiao's mansion. The people guarding the gatehouse were in a hurry. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 195 Fuck the Newborn Girl 124
The car stopped here, and I couldn't help but take a second look; I saw a man dressed as an eunuch from the inner court, coming down with an imperial edict in his hand. At that time, I was still thinking about who was going to get the imperial edict.
The people living nearby are all either rich or noble.
Suddenly, after getting off the carriage, Su Tianer looked up at the plaque of the Xiao Mansion, and then asked the gatekeeper in a loud voice, "Brother, is this the Xiao Mansion here?"
"This is the Xiao Mansion, please be safe, sir!" The gatekeeper walked out of the courtyard with a smile and bowed to apologize.
"Then is there a young lady named Xiao Minghua in your family?"
"How do you know, father-in-law?" Could it be that the third lady received the imperial edict?
The gatekeeper became energetic and his eyes suddenly brightened, "This father-in-law is here..."
"The Zajia family is serving His Majesty. Your young lady has contributed a lot to the recipe. Your Majesty has specially given you a reward. The Zajia family is here to issue the decree. Is your young lady at home?" Eunuch Su asked with a smile.
At that moment, the gatekeeper was filled with joy; then he thought about the lady not being at home, and his expression changed.
"Please come inside, father-in-law. I'll go and ask the master and his wife to come out first. Later, I'll go to Xu Shoufu's house to ask the third lady to come home and receive the order. Do you think it's feasible?"
Su Tian'er didn't embarrass him, nodded and followed in. The gatekeeper invited people into the main room to sit down and asked them to serve tea, while he went to report to the housekeeper that his father-in-law had arrived.
After the housekeeper heard about it, he took a special look. He was sure that he was from the inner court, so he ran to the backyard to report. Within a moment, Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, and Xiao Leshi all rushed over.
A group of servants also came with him.
It was the first time the family met the father-in-law of the inner court. They wanted to kneel down, but Su Tian'er stopped them. Looking at their words and deeds, it was hard to imagine that they could raise a daughter who was accepted as a disciple by the chief minister. I don't know who Is Miss Xiao Minghua the same as them?
"Everyone, please don't kneel down to the Za family. Miss Xiao hasn't come back yet. We will issue the decree together when everyone is here."
"Okay, okay."
The group sat down, unable to find anything to say; Su Tian'er was not one of those condescending people, and could not do anything to lose face in front of people of lower status than him. The main room fell into silence.
Mr. Xiao, Mrs. Xiao, and Mr. Xiao Le were on pins and needles, feeling uneasy. They did not dare to ask more questions, and the matter became deadlocked.
It wasn't until the servant invited Minghua back that the atmosphere relaxed.
"This must be the father-in-law who issued the decree. I have kept you waiting for a long time. The student forgot the time while studying at the master's house and failed to return home on time. It is the student's fault that my father-in-law has been waiting for so long." Someone who knows something about ancient official ranks Minghua, please forgive me before entering. .
