Su Liyan didn't take it seriously at first when her man said he was helping Su Changliang find a living.
First of all, it is the end of the new year, and basically all walks of life are not recruiting people. Recruiting people will only happen in the spring of next year.
Secondly, Su Liyan felt that this kind of job was so easy to find.
There are so many holes in the Imperial City, even if you want to be a waiter, it’s hard to find one.
Now I don’t know how many rural people are crowded into the imperial city and cannot find a living and are sleeping on the streets.
On her way to work every day, Su Liyan saw many people sleeping on the street. She didn't know what these people would do in the twelfth lunar month after winter.
Su Liyan never expected that her man would be so capable that he would give his brother an official job.
This... this person speaking in the village, isn't that the official? ! !
Is there an official in your family? !
While Su Liyan looked stunned, Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said:
"My brother, am I very powerful?"
After Su Liyan came back to her senses, she looked at Lu Yuan very seriously and nodded:
"Brother must be the most powerful person in the world!"
After breakfast, Lu Yuan went out with Su Liyan. Lu Yuan was going to find the house where he had given him wine.
Since he and Su Liyan were not on the same path, he naturally stopped sending Su Liyan to work.
There is also a post office in the imperial city. It is also very fast in the countryside around the imperial city.
However, Lu Yuan thought that his brother-in-law had never traveled far, so he didn't want to get lost, so he still asked someone to pick him up.
As for whether the liquor seller is willing to help Lu Yuan...
Lu Yuan threw three large silver dollars in front of the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper told the waiter on the spot that he would drive the bullock cart to Qingqiu Village.
The time has been set, at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, outside the east gate of the imperial city.
After doing all this, Lu Yuan went home and went to bed. He had to recharge his batteries today because there was going to be a fierce battle in the evening.
…………
It gets dark very quickly in winter. At around six o'clock in the evening, it gets completely dark.
The clerk from the wine shop entered the village in the dark. It was not difficult to find the Su family, because this family had a spiritual lamp and it was bright.
Moreover, the Su family courtyard is really lively now.
There were lights on this night, and a bunch of people were playing cards in the yard.
This man, like a moth sometimes, also wants to go to a bright place at night.
Although it's cold, everyone is still willing to stay outside if they don't go home to pay the public food tonight.
Seeing the group of gentlemen from her family gathering, Mother Su shook her head helplessly.
If Mother Su can teach a girl like Su Liyan, Mother Su must be a good wife herself.
Seeing this situation in my own yard, although I was helpless, it was hard to say anything because my man's face was more important.
Moreover, Su's mother also knew that the men in her family were honest and stupid, and would not refuse people.
If someone else says to come in the evening, it’s hard for a man to say no.
It seems that this matter will have to be discussed next time my uncle comes back. It is not a problem to be so noisy at night.
"When will Mom and the others leave..."
Su Changliang yawned and said.
Su Changliang didn't get a good night's sleep these days. The gang didn't go back until after 11 o'clock every night, and he had to get up early every day.
Mother Su also shook her head helplessly and said:
"I guess they've had enough fun in a few days, so these people will go back. It's okay. I'll let your brother-in-law talk to him next time he comes back."
Su Changliang nodded repeatedly. Su Changliang also felt that his brother-in-law was capable, and it would definitely be helpful for his brother-in-law to talk about this kind of thing.
When Su's mother and Su Changliang were feeling sleepy and didn't know what time they were going to bed tonight.
The shopkeeper in the city walked to the door, looked at Su's mother who was collecting shoe soles in the main hall, and grinned:
"His eldest sister, is she busy?"
Um?
Hearing this, Mother Su looked up and saw a familiar figure.
Isn't this the shopkeeper who came to deliver the goods a few days ago? ?
The appearance of this man caused the card players to stop and look at this out-of-towner strangely.
Su's father also recognized this person and stood up quickly.
This...this happened again. Could it be that my uncle gave me something again?
The shopkeeper took out an envelope from his arms and said with a smile:
"Your uncle asked me to deliver a letter. He also told your son to pack up now. I will take him back to the city right now."
This is...my uncle has found a job for his son?
It's too fast.
My uncle is really capable!
Su's father and Su's mother immediately knew what was going on, and then they quickly looked at Su Changliang aside and said:
"Quick, go pack your things."
Su Chang's conscience was also filled with joy, and he quickly nodded and left.
After Su's mother took the envelope, she quickly opened it. However, after opening it, Su's mother gave it to her man again.
He himself is illiterate.
Father Su was looking at the words on the envelope, and his body was shaking more and more, his face full of disbelief.
People in the courtyard also gathered around, what is this?
What's wrong? ?
Seeing her man like this, Mother Su on the side quickly pushed her man and said anxiously:
"Hey, what did you say?"
Su's father, who came back to his senses at this time, stared at Su's mother in disbelief and said:
"Baby, mother, this... our uncle asked Chang Liang to be an official in the imperial city!!!"
Su Changliang, who had just returned to the house, heard the sound and ran out.
Also full of disbelief.
This...is he going to be an official? ?
The shopkeeper in the city was also confused, but as a city man, the shopkeeper's mind was still alive.
While others were still in huge shock, the shopkeeper came to Su Changliang with a flattering smile and said:
"Sir, your brother-in-law asked me to help you pack your things. We need to hurry up. Your brother-in-law said he would be waiting for us at the east gate at nine in the morning."
Master?
Su Changliang was a little confused when he saw the forty-year-old shopkeeper calling him "Master".
And the people in the yard were also confused.
When Su's mother saw her son in a daze, she stamped her foot anxiously and said:
"Why are you so dazed? Go pack your things quickly. Didn't you hear that your brother-in-law is waiting for you in the Imperial City at nine o'clock tomorrow? You're late, so it's not true that your brother-in-law is waiting for you."
Su Changliang was stunned for a moment, then nodded repeatedly, turned around and entered the room, yes, yes, yes, his brother-in-law has a bad stomach, so he can't wait too long.
…
At half past eight in the night, Su Changliang was already sitting on a bullock cart with a big bundle in his arms.
People all over the village came out with kerosene lamps to see him off.
Good guy, this is the first time in all these years that Qingqiu Village has an official! !
This is definitely a good thing! !
From now on, Qingqiu Village will no longer be afraid of being bullied! !
At this time, Su's mother stood beside the bullock cart, looked at her son and said seriously:
"When you go to the city, don't cause any trouble for your brother-in-law. Listen to your brother-in-law in everything.
Your brother-in-law said that one plus one equals three, you have to believe him, did you hear that? "
The people on the side did not think this sentence was strange. Everyone felt that if their family had such a brother-in-law, they would definitely mean what the brother-in-law said!
Su Changliang nodded seriously and said:
"I will definitely listen to my brother-in-law!"
Finally, Su Changliang set off on the road in an ox cart.
As for the Imperial City Siheyuan.
Lu Yuan was leaning on the bedside, smoking a cigarette, with a proud look on his face.
Su Liyan lay her head on Lu Yuan's chest with a shy face, her face full of happiness.
After smoking the cigarette, Lu Yuan threw away the cigarette butt, then lifted the quilt and said:
"I won't sleep until dawn today!"
Su Liyan groaned and turned off the light.
