Now that the two of them have decided on their respective directions, there is nothing to hesitate about.
He took the eggs from his eyes and threw them into the bowl of the fat monk. Ye An was dissatisfied and said to Wang Gang and Tieniu who were standing outside the flower hall: "We will have dinner together in the future. If you don't want to stay in the Houfu, then
Just get out of here! This is the rule of my Marquis Mansion!"
Tieniu's face immediately turned into a flower with a smile, and what Wang Bang wanted to say was suppressed by Ye An's "ferocious" eyes.
The two of them hurriedly ate some food and went to prepare. Today, Ye An went to court and it was still Tieniu who drove the car. Xuan Chengzi looked at the dark circles under his eyes that had not completely dissipated and said angrily: "Even if you are newlyweds, you can't just do it.
Cut!"
This sentence alone made Qin Mumu turn away shyly, and also made Ye An, who had just calmed down, run away.
Who would have thought that Mr. Guanmiao, who is "fairy-minded", would actually talk about things between men and women. The content is not exciting, but it is very "exciting" when he comes out of his mouth.
Ye An is a bit young, no more than sixteen years old at most. Even though there is a twenty-six-year-old soul in his body, he has no plans to have children now.
Eugenics and eugenics are not only Qin Mumu's intention, but also the result of the two people's discussions. The fear of the future and the unfamiliarity of this world made the two lovers who had just arrived in Song Dynasty for less than half a year feel confused and fearful.
.
Although they are married, they can't settle down in their lives. Only when they become truly powerful can they dare to bring their bloodline into the world.
Children are responsible. It is true that children will make them no longer alone in this world, but they are also existences that they need to be responsible for.
Originally, they were alone in this Song Dynasty and had nothing to lose. They just had to live comfortably. But they had each other and cared about each other.
Being responsible for each other has become a bond in their hearts. Now, adding a child to the family will increase their uneasiness and fear again.
Of course age is a key point, but psychological preparation and material conditions are also considerations.
As the mistress of the Hou Mansion, Qin Mumu has begun to participate in the management of the Hou Mansion, which embarrasses the Zhang family lady who originally planned to teach her how to manage the backyard.
There is no way, there are not many people in the backyard of the Hou Mansion. Except for the two maids Qin Yeye and Qin Anan brought by Qin Mumu, there is no one else, and these two maids have become very independent under Mumu's education.
He even became her right-hand assistant.
Seeing Ye An getting into the bullock cart and leaving, Qin Mumu, who had no family to return to, also got into his own bullock cart with two maids. By the way, he also called Mrs. Zhang's family: "Ms. Zhang, there is nothing in this house."
Things are busy, just let me take over Third Uncle's debts!"
Ms. Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then said sarcastically: "The slave family can't do this kind of thing. It's not appropriate for a woman to show up in public, and the store is still selling wine..."
Qin Mumu frowned and said: "Why can't you do it? I will teach you. Ye Ye An'an also needs to learn. There are many people who can help. Besides, how can those families not have women? Just let you do it.
Let me think about it, you can’t stop being on your own just because you don’t have a man, right? How can you live your life!”
After using both soft and hard tactics, Ms. Zhang got on the bullock cart bravely. In her opinion, a woman should take good care of the big family in the house. What's the point of running around outside to take care of the family business?
Tieniu went to drive Ye An's car, and there was no spare handlebar in the house, so Wang Gang could only take over the driver's seat temporarily. Qin Mumu smiled and said: "I will invite Sister Wan from Lan Kwai Fong to drive tomorrow.
Otherwise, we will have to pay an extra salary to Manager Wang!"
Wang Gang said "I don't dare", but his attitude was actually the same as Zhang's. For him, such a mistress was not a worry.
Putting aside the publicity, you still have to do things that cost money. Debt collection is not a simple job, and it is not something that a woman can do well...
Looking through Ge Shanshu's account books in the car, although he has visited several families, in Qin Mumu's opinion, they are far from satisfactory. Not only is the efficiency low, he has not described the situation of these families in detail, which is almost the same.
Returned without success.
Since she can take over these matters, it is her decision. Ye An had put all the debts in wooden boxes and handed them over to her last night, which means that from now on, she will be responsible for the debt issues of the Hou Mansion. At the same time,
Clean up non-performing assets.
In the eyes of Song people, this was a completely clueless matter, but Qin Mumu didn't find it difficult.
In the bullock cart, Ye Ye and An An arranged these debts from high to low, and marked the places that were close to each other, so that they could get the order of visiting these families.
A few simple steps left Mrs. Zhang beside her dumbfounded. In comparison, Ge Shanshu's previous speed was really incomparable to his wife.
But all this was the beginning of Zhang’s surprise……
Ye An's oxcart arrived at the Dailu Courtyard in front of Xuande Gate. This was where hundreds of officials gathered in the morning to prepare for worship. Of course, not everyone could enter the Dailu Courtyard to have breakfast.
Senior officials of the third rank can enjoy the delicious mutton soup given by the emperor in the courtyard, while other courtiers can have their own breakfast...
So Ye An squatted under the porch of the waiting courtyard and stared at the gloomy sky, wandering away. Anyway, he had only come after dinner in the morning, and he was just here to attend the morning duty as a routine.
Well, the people gathered in the courtyard are all big guys. Look at Wang Zeng's style. Even if he is leaning on the small armchair, his whole body has a good temperament. Even sitting next to him, Lu Yijian cannot compare with him.
.
Ye An glanced at the people inside and refused to look at it. Obviously, the court was still full of cliques. Even a fool could see the lack of confrontation between Lu Yijian and Wang Zeng.
As Wang Zeng's younger brother, Wang Hao naturally sides with his brother. As for Wang Zhen... he is slightly closer to Lu Yijian.
Ye An didn't even want to take a second look at such a court. Party strife harmed the country, and party strife harmed the country. No shrewd king would deliberately create party strife to maintain his rule.
Of course, except for the emperor of the later generations who did not go to court for decades, he was really capable of playing with party disputes and even the officials in applause. Emperor Jiajing was one of the few emperors in history whose governing ability reached the "abnormal level".
It's just that in the current Song Dynasty...well...the Tianjia cannot control these monster-like ministers, and the only way is to use the method of balance to maintain the Tianjia's dominance.
The best way to avoid having powerful officials is that everyone is a "powerful official" with overlapping rights.
Politics, court, tactics, conspiracy, and the small waiting room are filled with all the prerequisite factors that Ye An dislikes.
Of course, it also kept him out of the matter. He was an unexpected guest. He was a guest in the Song Dynasty and had no ties. Even when he was in the hospital, he mostly looked at the problem from the perspective of a bystander.
Teaching the emperor? It was just a bold attempt on his part. It was new and exciting but not relevant to him.
"My dear Sirs, the court meeting is about to begin, please move to the Daqing Hall!"
Following the voice of the chamberlain, the big guys in the courtyard began to move. Ye An felt like he was standing in the corridor. This was a formal court meeting. Looking at his colleagues lining up in twos and threes, he was no exception.
Looking at the middle-aged man wearing the same green uniform as himself, he smiled slightly: "Fan Ziyuan, Fan Shaoqing?"
Fan Ziyuan glanced at Ye An with a professional smile among colleagues, crossed his hands and saluted: "Ye Hou, are you attending the court today?"
"Well, attending the court, it's meaningless to attend the court... It's like I'm not here..."
These words were clueless and even full of paradoxes. They were originally intended to keep Fan Ziyuan, a hypocrite, away from him, but the effect was exactly the opposite.
Fan Ziyuan stared at Ye An in surprise for a while and suddenly smiled: "Ye Hou is right, it is indeed meaningless! The only thing our Sinong Temple should do is to promote those improved seeds to the world!"
After saying that, he stopped talking and slowly followed the people in front of him into the Daqing Gate. Ye An walked in side by side with him, but his heart was filled with surprise, and he began to doubt his previous judgment of Fan Ziyuan.
The first impression is very important, whether it is Fan Ziyuan's view of Ye An or Ye An's view of Fan Ziyuan.
From the beginning, Fan Ziyuan didn't think that Ye An was a serious civil servant, let alone that he could do a good job as the Shaoqing of Sinong Temple. How could someone like him promote auspicious varieties like potatoes and sweet potatoes?
Ye An also felt the same way. In his opinion, Fan Ziyuan was just a bookworm who was obsessed with reading. He could only sit at the Sinong Temple and write and draw. How could he look like a scholar-type official who appeared in the fields?
But just now, in the very little communication between the two, Ye An suddenly felt that maybe he had made a mistake, and so did Fan Ziyuan...
