These words shocked Xie Xiuwen!
He looked around and thought that his wife's voice was so low that even Chen Shuang outside could not hear her, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't talk about such important matters in the future."
No matter how trivial the palace matter is, it is possible to lose your head!
Talking about the royal family in private, and involving the blood of the Holy Emperor, is no joke.
Liu Ruolan was also frightened by Xie Xiuwen's seriousness, and nodded quickly, indicating that she would never say anything casually again.
Xie Xiuwen was thinking about it, if even those foreign women really knew about the matter of having a child through borrowing a child, how could the Holy One not know about it?
He knew that harem battles were cruel.
I'm not sure, someone is just waiting for the best opportunity to bring down Xie Jieyu in one fell swoop.
The next day was the official day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the court had a three-day holiday, so early in the morning, Xie Xiuwen took his family to Fuyuan Villa.
Nowadays, Fuyuan Villa is well-kept and the mountain is more beautiful. There are always different scenery to enjoy throughout the year. Xie Rongzhao feels that it is much more beautiful than the back gardens of those noble homes!
The most important thing is that here, Xie Rongzhao can play freely and does not need to always act like a lady, which is really too restrained.
At this moment, the roses all over the mountain are in bloom, and the pomegranate trees bear green and reddish fruits. Xie Rongzhao really wants to pick them directly.
"Miss, you can't pick this fruit. It will be delicious if you pick it ten days later. If you want to eat pomegranates, we also have them in our village. This batch of fruit trees were planted later, which just allows the masters to eat for a while. Fresh fruit.”
"I think the hawthorns over there can be picked, right? There are so many hawthorns, do you want to make hawthorn sauce?"
"Yes, after Mr. Xie Jiu came, the income of our villa became more abundant. Not only the wood in the back mountain can be sold for money, but also the money earned from these fruit trees. Because we have more work, we use There are more laborers in the village, and everyone’s life is better, so now many people are thinking of moving to the village.”
Xie Jiuye is Xie Xiuwen's younger cousin, Xie Xiuqi. Because according to their generation, Xie Xiuwen simply asked his subordinates to call him Jiuye.
Xie Xiuqi was a little embarrassed at first. He had been favored by his cousin, but now that he was respected as Lord Nine, he always felt uneasy.
Today's Fuyuan Villa is no longer the barren hilltop it was a few years ago. The villagers at the foot of the mountain have made more money and are living a happy life.
I heard that several families in the village have sent their children and grandchildren to school, which shows that they really have a surplus of food.
It's not long since Xie Xiuqi arrived in the capital. In the past few months, he has basically been living here in Fuyuan Villa. With him as a serious elder, the few young men studying here are really honest.
Xie Xiuwen came to Fuyuan Villa this time, and there was one more thing he wanted to tell Xie Xiuqi.
When he sent Xie Rongye to bring people to the capital, it was not just to take care of his property.
Xie Xiuqi was born as a scholar, but he was ranked third from the bottom on the list when he first took the scholar examination. This ranking meant that he could not expect to be admitted to the examination in the short term.
Xie Xiuqi also felt that he was not good at studying, so he later set up a private school by himself, specializing in educating young children. After one year, Shu Xiu could earn dozens of taels of silver, plus he had eighty acres to his name. With the quota of tax-free fields, life is going well these days.
Xie Xiuwen's brother-in-law's family is not divided, just like his family, so most of Xie Xiuqi's earnings must be attributed to the public. When uncle Xie gave some money to Xie Xiuwen, Xie Xiuqi's contribution was included in this.
Therefore, Xie Xiuwen felt that he could not repay the kindness, but they were all relatives, and they treated him sincerely. If he directly repaid him with money, it would easily hurt his feelings.
In this way, Xie Xiuwen brought both Xie Xiuqi and Xie Rongcheng's uncle and nephew to the capital so that he could take care of them.
"Brother, come and sit down."
Xie Xiuqi was the youngest among his peers, and Xie Xiuwen had many contacts with him in the past. Mainly because both of them were scholars, they would often get together to discuss knowledge.
"Have you ever thought about trying the science exam again?"
Xie Xiuqi was stunned. He didn't expect his cousin to ask this. He thought for a moment and shook his head: "To be honest, brother, I have also fallen behind a lot in my homework in the past few years. Not to mention taking the Juren exam, it is just a re-examination for the scholar. I I’m afraid I’ll all fail.”
If you become a scholar and have no official position, you have to take the annual exam again every year. Only in this way can you keep your reputation as a scholar. If you fail the exam, you will be expelled as a scholar. You can take the exam again in the future, but this is not always the case. A glorious thing.
"Since you have no intention of taking any more scientific exams, what do you think about my brother arranging an errand for you?"
Xie Xiuqi blinked: "Isn't my current errand arranged by my cousin?"
This time Xie Xiuwen was stunned.
He originally just wanted to let him get familiar with the customs and customs here in the capital, and for some reasons, his original operation went wrong, so he had no choice but to find another job.
Therefore, Xie Xiuqi stayed in Fuyuan Villa for several months.
Unexpectedly, he actually thought that he had found him just to take care of the villa.
Xie Xiuwen wanted to understand this and said with some humor: "I'm afraid I have misunderstood me. I will arrange for someone to take over this villa. I have trained several stewards, but later because of my negligence, I had no choice but to let my little brother come here. How many months? I hope I won’t blame you."
Xie Xiuqi was confused, so didn't he come to the capital to manage the villa?
He thought he was here just to be the owner of the village, but he had other plans?
Xie Xiuwen didn't go around any more and asked directly: "I've had a lot of dealings with County Magistrate Chen and my eldest son in the past few days, right?"
"Exactly, Brother Hui has made a lot of progress. He no longer only thinks about things. He knows how to do serious things."
"Well, I must be familiar with some of the county government's procedures, right?"
"Understand something."
Xie Xiuqi kept it quiet and did not dare to say that he was already familiar with it.
"That's it. My brother has found a job for you in Jingzhao Mansion. It's just that the rank is lower. Judging from the records of ninth rank, I wonder if I will dislike it?"
Xie Xiuqi was dumbfounded.
Why is it that in the blink of an eye, I am about to become an official?
What happened to Ninth Grade?
From the ninth grade, it is also an official body!
And there are still many small officials down there who have strayed.
"Brother Wen, are you serious?"
"Of course! I originally planned for you to be the county magistrate in Feng County. However, something went wrong later, and it was difficult for me to confirm the facts, so I had to think of another way. In recent days, I got accurate information. This is the official Document issued by the Ministry.”
