Chapter 367 The Best Choice
Chapter 367 The best choice
Therefore, Li Xiuping had already made mental preparations:
If you are a county magistrate in such a small county town, you will definitely be busy with trivial matters every day, and you will not be able to see your political achievements in the short term.
Li Xiuping has always been acting unhurried and impatient. He is still young. Even if he has been in the capital for four years, he has actually only passed his year of winning.
Therefore, when he decided to seek a position of exile, Li Xiuping went to the palace and had a serious and earnest conversation with the emperor.
He is still young, but in fact his mind is not mature enough, there are countless possibilities in the future, and he does not want to be characterized from the beginning.
If he really accepted the emperor's kindness, he would be the chief official of the prefecture from the beginning, but it would not be a good thing for Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping knew that he was too young and had no experience in handling local affairs, so he was easily bullied or deceived.
The trees are as beautiful as the forest and the wind will destroy them!
On the contrary, the best choice is that he is living in Yangfeng County at this moment.
Five years, this is the time set by Li Xiuping for himself, and he will surely achieve something in five years.
Of course, even if he only handles daily trivial matters in the county government, Li Xiuping is still very enthusiastic.
And I know that there are few people who know my mother and her wife here, but it is not convenient for me to go out frequently. Sometimes when I encounter interesting cases in the yamen, I can share with my family, and he will tell them when he goes back tonight.
Just as the wife said, people need to communicate and understand each other.
Even if mother and son, husband and wife are busy every day and don’t talk, the best relationship will fade.
However, the continuous busyness has turned Lord Li into a workaholic. He talked about his mother and wife for a few words, but then he changed his mind and returned to his yamen case:
"I recently received a case that looked simple, but I don't know if I should make a serious judgment."
Fang Qingqing was surprised: "Brother Sanlang, why do you say that?"
"In my opinion, in the end, the victims will change their minds and withdraw their situation."
Now, even Shishi was a little interested: "Okay, Sanlang, just tell me what the case is."
This case is actually very simple, and the evidence is conclusive. It is related to a scholar who recently passed the Tongsheng exam.
Zhang Sheng, who was born in a poor family, married Huang, and had both children and was loving.
Moreover, Zhang Sheng has been studying hard for a long time, and has passed the exam for three consecutive years. He has been studying hard in academy before.
The family chores and serving the two elders to raise their children were all borne by Huang, and it can be said that he had been suffering for many years.
Finally, the scholar passed the exam and his family were happy. They were planning to go to the provincial capital to participate in the autumn examination and strive to pass the exam. Then they went to Beijing to take the exam.
Unfortunately, Zhang Sheng has exhausted his family's income over the years, and it takes silver to attend the autumn examination. Zhang Sheng also heard that he needs even more money to go to Beijing after passing the imperial examination.
Furthermore, it is best to spend some money to inquire about the examiner’s preferences before the exam, so that you can be more confident in passing the exam.
After all, it all takes money. It’s useless to be a scholar, and it’s really reflected now.
Zhang Sheng has been studying for so many years, but he can't do anything else, but he is still just a scholar who has a long way to go and needs money everywhere.
So Zhang Sheng and his parents began to dislike Huang. The old woman had no other way to make money except to work in the fields every day.
As a result, Zhang Sheng came up with a sinister idea. He first made an excuse to ask Huang to take his children back to his parents' home to live for a while, in the name of letting his wife and children cultivate relationships with the Yue family.
On his side, Zhang Xiucai was going to marry the daughter of a rich man in the countryside because the young lady could bring her a dowry of 100 taels of silver.
One hundred taels of silver were a huge sum of money for Zhang Sheng and his family.
Of course, this young lady was not good-looking, otherwise her family would not be willing to give her so much dowry, and the local rich man valued Zhang Sheng's identity as a scholar.
The idea was that if Zhang Sheng passed the imperial examination again, he would be the father-in-law of the juren in the future.
Originally, the Zhang family thought very well, but Huang didn't know about this for the time being, so she could not help but marry the newcomer first.
There is no airtight wall in the world. Before the Liuli was finished, the wife who had not agreed to marry her, Huang actually learned the news and came back to kill the general.
"My father and brother have always had a deep relationship. My uncle has only one child and my father is also the only son.
However, my cousin died prematurely and did not leave any children. My uncle left a last word before his death, hoping that I could join the two houses."
Zhang Shengzhen made a statement and emphasized: "This is also my father's wish. The newly married woman is actually a housewife."
Zhang Sheng said such shameless words very well and tried his best to emphasize that this was the last wish of "uncle" and the order of his father.
During the story, Lord Li forgot to take into account his identity and couldn't help but speak harshly:
"Bah, I really read the books of sages. No wonder I've only passed the scholar after so many years.
He did such dirty things himself, but he deliberately tried to use filial piety to suppress others in the name of his elders."
Zhang Sheng wanted 100 taels of silver, but he was reluctant to leave his hardworking and capable wife, inside and outside the house. Moreover, it is very important that he continues to take exams in the future.
The wife of a gangster did not leave the court, so early in the morning, Zhang Sheng came up with such a way to have the best of both worlds.
In the middle of the family, they perfectly carried forward the incense of their Zhang family, and the daughter of the newly married rich man was the daughter-in-law of the eldest wife, and Huang could only be the second wife.
So Zhang Sheng had two daughters-in-law, but he was called sisters-in-law, and the family lived together harmoniously and perfectly.
It’s really good to plot. Zhang Sheng probably puts all his thoughts on bad ideas. Can such a person win the autumn exam?
Unfortunately, Huang was unwilling to cooperate and directly sued Zhang Sheng with a complaint.
In fact, this is because the county magistrate is Li Xiuping. If the former county magistrate was changed, no one would sue the official for such a thing.
When Li Xiuping first took office, he was anxious about the village chiefs from all over the county and towns and villages, and asked them to go and announce it.
If everyone has any grievances, they can go to the yamen to complain. As a county's parent official, he will definitely uphold justice for the people.
At that time, Huang was arguing with the people of the Zhang family and was criticized and scolded by his parents-in-law.
So, in a fit of anger, Huang asked the village chief to write a letter of paper and sued Zhang Sheng to the yamen.
In Li Xiuping's opinion, this case is not complicated and easy to deal with.
It is not impossible to be a member of the family, but it should be made clear when the Zhang family first proposed to marry Huang.
Instead of telling Huang that after so many years, the children were old, that there was nothing wrong with Huang in the Zhang family over the years.
There are many women in the middle school who are not willing to do it, and it is only some special families who do special things to take care of the incense issues in the whole family.
Therefore, you should make it clear before getting married, so that both men and women can only work if they are willing.
