Of course, Yin Mingyu would not accept a righteous granddaughter and warmly entertain the Nanmeng people. She asked Nanke to send the Nanmeng people away, and she took Xie Ce back to the prefecture's house.

Nan Ke walked in front of the clan elder, picked up the wedding book that had fallen on the ground, and patted the ashes lightly before a smile appeared, handed it to the clan elder, and said softly, "You must keep the marriage book, don't throw it away. Now, I still want Shili Hongzhuang to be the wife of the barbarian patriarch..."

The clan elder's eyes flashed, and he didn't want to be weak in front of this girl, Nan Ke, but the hand that received the marriage certificate was trembling without falsification.

When Nan Ke was about to touch the marriage certificate, he suddenly let go of his hand, and the marriage certificate wiped his hand and fell to the ground.

The clan elder paused for a moment, then said angrily, "Nanke! How dare you!"

Nan Ke half-squatted in front of him, completely changed, she was no longer the innocent and silly girl she used to be, and even smiled a bit maliciously: "Why don't I dare~"

The clan elder was furious and raised his hand to give her a slap.

Seeing this, Nan Patriarch said nervously, "Uncle..."

Chu He, who was not far away, also mentioned it a little, and he calmed down again when he saw Nan Ke holding the wrist of the old man, and turned his head to Xie Qin and said, "It seems that we don't need to take charge of the overall situation, and go back to the yamen?"

Xie Qin glanced at the crowd of onlookers and said, "It's rare to gather so many people. Later, Yaoqing, you will announce the road construction to the people."

After he finished speaking, he stopped paying attention to Nanmeng and others, turned around and stepped into the prefecture's gate.

Chu He took the folding fan picked up by the officer, and continued to watch the Nanmeng clan as he fanned it.

Nan Ke did not conflict with the clan elders in public, which would not allow the clan elders to be punished, she had to take her time.

So Nan Ke let go of the clan elder's hand, then stood up, turned to her father, and said coldly, "Father, I remember that the clan has a house in the prefecture, you may as well go and settle down first, and I will go with you tomorrow. Convergence."

Nan Patriarch glanced at the Clan Elder and responded indifferently: "Hey, good."

Nan Ke no longer hesitated, and turned around firmly.

In the back house, Yin Mingyu put aside the matter at the entrance of the yacai just now, lay down leisurely on the rocking chair, swayed slowly in the warm afternoon sun, and closed his eyes comfortably.

However, the rocking chair kept shaking. Yin Mingyu was lazy, so he said to Xie Ce, "Give mother a push."

Xie Ce was still amazed at the sudden addition of a righteous niece to himself. Standing beside her, he leaned on the rocking chair with his little hand and asked, "Mother, do you want to greet the new niece?"

Yin Mingyu closed his eyes and said, "No need."

He is not the official Xie family tree, and actually has nothing to do with Xie Ce.

"Ah?" Xie Ce regretted, "But I want to give..."

"What do you want to give?"

Xie Ce couldn't think of it for a while. Seeing that his mother was sleepy, he ran to the sheep, grabbed its ears and muttered, "I have a niece again!"

The sheep turned away from his hand and continued to graze.

Xie Ce didn't leave, and continued to talk around it.

The sheep turned around and pushed him away with his butt.

At this time, Nan Ke walked in, Xie Ce hurriedly grabbed the sheep's neck, stabbed it to look at it, and shouted, "This is our niece!"

us?

Nan Ke's originally surging heart was suddenly stunned, and he looked at Xie Ce and the sheep dully.

According to Xie Ce's thoughts, this sheep was his companion growing up together, and of course he was a peer.

Xie Ce smiled at her and said solemnly, "We will give you a greeting."

Nanke: "…"

The red silk came out with the tea, and said with a bit of schadenfreude: "Our little man is a very trustworthy person. I really envy Miss Nanke's meeting ceremony."

In the past few days, she has been running on Nan Ke secretly and openly, but she stabbed a few words without any pain, and it was not too much.

Nan Ke didn't bother with her, and went straight to Yin Mingyu, "Madam..."

Yin Mingyu waved his hand and motioned her to let the light come, and then he took up the tea ceremony: "What do you want to say?"

"I will go back to the village with the clan tomorrow. I want to be the patriarch of Nanmeng." Nan Ke knew that this was her chance, a unique opportunity to change the status quo of women in the clan.

Yin Mingyu drank tea with his eyes down, the corners of his mouth raised, and praised without hesitation: "It's good to be ambitious."

Best of all, put it into action.

However, Yin Mingyu reminded for the last time: "Don't forget the original intention, otherwise I will not always be your support."

"Yes, I understand." Nan Ke agreed and asked, "Madam, what do you need me to do?"

Yin Mingyu has been tossing around a lot during this time, and everyone has to perform their own duties. She finally "difficult" to get rid of Xie Ce.

So she said: "You take a few guards, and the rest will be ordered by the prefect."

Nanke nodded.

On the other side, at the gate of the government office, Chu He waited for Nan Ke and the clansmen to "reminisce about the old", and Nan Meng and his party left, just before they walked to the front of the people.

The officer raised the gong, and with a sound of "dang", all the people turned to them.

Chu He said loudly: "Folks, the Governor is considering the livelihood of the people of South Vietnam and intends to connect more businessmen from outside Lingnan to buy medicinal materials, tea, fruits, silk and other items locally!"

When the people heard it, they whispered.

The officer struck the gong again, signaling the people to be quiet.

Chu He continued: "Of course, the terrain in Nanyue is complex and the road is inconvenient. The Governor is planning to recruit workers to build roads and bridges. It is not a corvée. If you have wages, you can voluntarily apply to the county government!"

And the people had discussed heatedly before. When they heard about "building roads and building bridges", they looked at each other with a little bit of taboo.

Chu He was puzzled and asked the people in front of him.

The people didn't dare to say no, they just waved their hands and said, "Sir, the little ones can't do this work."

Not only him, but also some other people, who didn't say "I can't do this work", but quietly dispersed.

Chu He didn't know why, so he didn't force the people to answer, and only called the officers to ask.

The officer picked up the gong and answered cautiously, "Sir, I heard from the old man in the family that it was thirty or forty years ago that there was an accident in Lingnan, and some people were recruiting workers to build roads and bridges in various parts of Lingnan, and the pay was generous. Leh, but after people leave from various villages, they never come back, so the local people are almost reluctant to do this kind of work."

Chu He frowned, "Really?"

The officer nodded affirmatively, "I don't dare to lie, my grandfather said when he was alive that he wanted to go with such a high salary, but he didn't get it. After the big trouble, he was fortunate!"

"A lot of older people know this."

Chu He waved his hand to teach him to go on duty, and thoughtfully went to the second hall to find Xie Qin.

Xie Qin was sitting behind the desk and raising a pen to write.

Yin Mingyu threw a way to shock the crowd and then clapped and left. Xie Qin was calm and meticulous, so he had to clean up for her, and he had to plan more thoroughly to make the most of this matter.

Chu He came in and said, "Jing Ming, do you know that the local people are extremely opposed to the road construction when you are away?"

Xie Qin raised his head, "What's going on?"

Chu He sat down on his own, drinking tea to quench his thirst, and said: "The officer said that thirty or forty years ago, because of the recruitment of workers, Lingnan lost many people, so the common people resisted."

Xie Qin frowned, put down his pen and said, "I have seen the files in recent years, and there is no such thing."

But thirty or forty years ago, the Great Ye dynasty had not yet been established, and the Central Plains were in chaos.

Due to geographical reasons, Lingnan was not on the main battlefield. During the war, it was almost unaffected. What did someone do while taking advantage of the chaos, the file may not be found.

However, given the situation in Lingnan, we cannot let go of any clues.

Xie Qin then said: "Send someone to inquire quietly. Didn't Erniang bring us ready-made personnel? Our plan is as usual. The people of Yanzu Village committed crimes and served for some time as punishment. , and the right should be to teach the people of South Vietnam peace of mind."

Chu He nodded and said with a smile, "I don't know why, as soon as the younger siblings appear, the situation will always be easier."

Xie Qin recalled what happened in front of the government office, smiled and shook his head, got up and said, "Let's go to the backyard to sit together and chat with Nanke."

Chu He readily agreed.

The two returned to the back house, and before they stepped into the back house door, they first heard Xie Ce's clear endorsement, and when they stepped in, they saw Yin Mingyu who was leisurely in the courtyard. She seemed unconcerned and quite enjoying herself. Enjoy the preserved fruit fed by the red silk.

What happened to Nanyue didn't seem to affect her at all.

Yin Mingyu opened one eye slightly, and when he saw that they were coming in, he closed it again.

On the other hand, Xie Ce was a little distracted when he saw them coming in, and the sound of the endorsement stopped abruptly.

The old gentleman was very strict in teaching, and the ruler slapped the back of his hand, "Focus."

Xie Ce immediately continued to recite, but his mother was eating, drinking and enjoying himself, which really affected his mentality.

Yin Mingyu doesn't need to endorse books, and it's a peace of mind to listen to the children reading hard.

Chu He was not inferior to her in the slightest, and even laughed out loud, "My dear nephew, it will take more than ten years to study hard in the cold window, and it is better to get used to it earlier."

Xie Ce: "…"

Adults are so annoying~

Xie Qin still had some conscience, not joking like the two of them, but said solemnly: "Ce'er, don't slack off."

Father is also an adult.

Xie Ce silently turned around and endorsed without emotion.

Chu He laughed unbridled, and then sighed: "I really miss the errand of Guozijian. If I return to Beijing one day, I can be an official to the Guozijian to sacrifice wine, it will be the same destination."

It's a pity that the more you go up as an official, the more you can't help him.

Xie Qin ignored him and said to Yin Mingyu, "I want to talk to Nanke, but we are both men, so it's not easy to talk to her alone, Erniang, can you come to the study together?"

Sitting in different places left and right, Yin Mingyu opened his eyes, did not refuse, and entered the study with them.

And as soon as Yin Mingyu moved the place, Hong Shu and several other maids moved her snacks, dried fruits and tea into the study together, and set up a table full of them.

Chu He said with admiration: "When it comes to enjoyment, few people can compare to younger siblings."

No one cares about Yin Mingyu's manners and rules outside, so she keeps it up all the time, as if coming to Lingnan to really play, while peeling the pine nuts and saying: "It's a pity that it's not the season to eat lychees, otherwise, you must eat the freshest. "

When they were talking, Nan Ke stepped in and saluted the three of them one by one.

Xie Qin sat behind the book desk and said straight to the point: "I have one thing to support. I heard that Nanmeng has a woman in the barbarian land of Butterfly Valley. If it is convenient, can you inquire about some barbarian affairs?"

Nan Ke immediately agreed: "Go back to Lord Inspector Shi, I plan to go back to Nanmeng and go to the barbarians to discuss the wedding in person. At that time, I will find a way to contact the women of the tribe."

"Thank you." Xie Qin stood up, and bowed his hands naturally, "This matter is the responsibility of this official, and the Nanmeng woman is also a commoner under my control, so she should be protected by this official, and you don't have to take too much risk, and protect your own safety. "

My own people don't care about their lives...

There were tears in Nanke's eyes for a moment, and he bowed deeply.

Yin Mingyu also looked at Xie Qin, slightly dazed.

Xie Qin really decided one thing, and he practiced it seriously; he said that he wanted to do something practical for the people, and he really tried his best to do it.

He is different from many aristocratic families in Beijing. He doesn't even care that she is higher than him, and he will thank an ordinary woman...

This kind of education is actually quite rare, and it is really embarrassing.

Yin Mingyu was so fascinated that he stuffed a pine nut into the entrance.

"Second mother."

"Huh?" Yin Mingyu raised his head blankly and looked at Xie Qin in confusion.

Xie Qin shook his head slightly and said helplessly, "Spit it out."

Yin Mingyu spit it onto the plate subconsciously, and saw that it was a whole pine nut that had not been peeled off. If it was bitten directly, it might break into her teeth.

Chu He glanced at Xie Qin playfully, but Xie Qin didn't say anything else and continued to explain the business to Nan Ke.

Yin Mingyu boredly listened to them talking to Nan Ke in detail there, and even meant some pointers, as if he had never thought about the identity of Nan Ke's woman at all.

After they finished speaking, Chu He and Nan Ke all withdrew, and Yin Mingyu just supported his chin and asked curiously, "Do you really think Nan Ke can do it? Have you thought about finding another man to support him?"

Xie Qin looked back at her seriously and said, "It's because of you, Ming Yu."

Yin Mingyu looked at him quietly.

Xie Qin said: "Because of you, Yaoqing and I both think that it's not that a woman can't make a difference. Sending her a ride is just smooth sailing. Why should we stop her?"

The corners of Yin Mingyu's mouth slowly rose, and he said softly, "Lang Jun... good manners."

Xie Qin replied, "So are you."

And on this day, Nanmeng VIP ended with an unimaginable ending, and the prefect Mrs. Shi, who was already in the limelight, once again became the center of discussion in the city.

Everyone who saw the scene of "the righteous grandmother" with their own eyes discussed the matter after they went back. On the contrary, the matter of recruiting workers to build roads and bridges was mentioned by Governor Xie, and no one cared about it.

The state government officials re-examined the character of Mrs. Governor, returned to their respective homes, and once again changed their tone to their wives and daughters at home, reminding them how to be cautious when seeing Mrs. Governor in the future.

The Jiedu envoy also heard the wind.

As soon as Mrs. Qi learned about this, she was stunned at first, and then burst into laughter, "This Yin Erniang is really a wonderful person!"

Seeing that she admired Xie Qin's wife, Qi Jiedu reluctantly persuaded her, "Madam, please be more restrained."

Mrs. Qi did not restrain herself at all, but instead scolded directly: "Look at the prince of the Xie family, and look at how you are shrinking, the older you are, the more spineless you are!"

"If I'm not careful, how can I keep my family safe?" Qi Jiedu was accustomed to it, not angry with her, and patiently said, "The young people are high-spirited, and the madam likes them to be normal, but the situation in South Vietnam will have to wait and see. ."

When Mrs. Qi encounters his temperament, every time she gets angry, it goes out again. It is not easy to have conflicts between husband and wife, but she is always very aggrieved.

"Just wait and see if you like. I will see Yin Erniang tomorrow, so I won't be affected by you."

Qi Jiedu saw that he could not persuade her, so he stopped persuading her.

On the second day, Yin Mingyu sent Xie Ce to the Jiedu envoy as usual.

Nan Ke was worried about taking his sister Nan Duo, so he wanted to leave her in the state house, and after a long time of coaxing, Nan Duo agreed with peace of mind.

Then Nan Ke went to say goodbye to Yin Mingyu.

Yin Mingyu had nothing to explain, only said: "I wish you all the best."

Xie Ce ran away for a while, then Dian Dian’er ran back, and handed Nan Ke a copy of “A Thousand Characters” as if offering a treasure. He was obviously ghostly, but imitated his elders and said, “Nan Ke, this is what I gave to Nan Ke. Your greeting."

Nan Ke held the book and his smile disappeared.

Xie Ce stood on tiptoe, patted her arm, and warned, "Read well."

Nanke: "…"

Yin Mingyu and others couldn't help laughing.

But it wasn't over yet, the baby nurse stepped in with a cloth parcel on her face embarrassed.

Yin Mingyu raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at her strangely.

Xie Ce took the cloth package and handed it to Nan Ke, "This is a gift from my sheep to you."

Nan Ke was even more at a loss. She didn't know what kind of greeting the sheep could give her. When she received it, she found that it was extremely light.

Seeing Nan Ke's actions, Yin Mingyu made some guesses, looked sideways at Xie Ce, and asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"

Xie Ce's eyes wandered, his fingers twisted behind his back.

Yin Mingyu looked at Nanny Tong again.

Nanny Tong replied in a low voice, "Mrs Hui, the maid, the wool that the maid sheared with Xiao Lang Jun after getting up in the morning..."

Yin Mingyu's eyes immediately shot at Jin'er, Yin'er and other maids, and they all had some guilty conscience on their faces.

So, why don't you understand, this is covered up.

Yin Mingyu got up and walked out of the main room.

The side of the sheep was facing her, and there was no sign of shearing, so she walked over and turned to the other side, and was speechless.

Xie Ce and the others were probably afraid that the sheep would be cold, so they didn't cut them all, but half of the sheep's body was cut like a chessboard, which was really ugly.

"Mother, are you angry?" Xie Ce stood carefully behind her, "I asked the sheep, it is willing."

Yin Mingyu: "…"

She wanted to know how they communicated, but watching the sheep grazing without distraction, she seemed to be willing...

Yin Mingyu said: "It's hair is still there last year, why should it be cut? Just find it."

Xie Ce completely forgot about this, and when he heard it, he suddenly remembered and looked at the sheep apologetically.

Yin Mingyu was both angry and funny. Seeing Nan Ke, who was holding "Thousand Characters" and Mao at a loss behind him, he taught her to leave first.

Nan Ke hurried out after salute.

Yin Mingyu saw that it was a little late, and he didn't bother with Xie Ce too much, urging everyone to go out.

Xie Ce thought that her mother was not angry, so she happily got on the carriage and kept talking with her small mouth in the carriage.

Yin Mingyu looked at him with a smile, thinking about giving him a small lesson.

When they arrived at the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion, Mrs. Qi rarely faced Yin Mingyu warmly to Xie Ce, holding Xie Ce's hand in one hand, while smiling at Yin Mingyu: "I heard what happened to you yesterday, you did a good job. Well, it's time to give them some power."

Yin Mingyu is now more and more certain that Mrs. Qi's temperament must be more like Mrs. Qi, which seems to be irrelevant to the sleek Qi Jiedushi.

Mrs. Qi taught people to get food and drink for their mother and son, and talked to Yin Mingyu with great interest.

Yin Mingyu also likes her quick talk, and the conversation is very lively, and she warmly invited: "Auntie, I plan to entertain all the female relatives in the state city, are you interested in coming?"

Madam Qi hesitated.

In fact, she came from Nanyue Prefecture, and seldom participated in the banquets of various houses in the state, and her high status, even the previous invitation of the prefect's wife, most of them refused.

And Yin Mingyu didn't force it, he just said to himself, "I have nothing to do. I plan to organize some Cuju competitions in the state city to be lively and lively. I want to invite these female relatives to talk about this."

Mrs. Qi's brows moved, and her eyes showed some movement.

Cuju can strengthen the body, so it is very popular in the army, and she liked it when she was young.

Yin Mingyu seemed to be ignorant and said with a smile: "If it is done well, I would like to make some more lucky draws and teach the people to participate. What do you think?"

"Excellent..."

Yin Mingyu said: "But if you want to do this, I will take the lead alone. I'm afraid I can't persuade all the female relatives. If you want, it will be very easy."

Mrs. Qi swayed in her heart, but she was already leaning towards Yin Mingyu.

She is not the kind of person who hesitates. Since she is moved, she will agree to it.

Yin Mingyu looked happy, held Mrs. Qi's hand closely, and said, "It is only when I meet an elder like you that I can tolerate my playful heart."

Mrs. Qi waved her hand and said, "I am also interested."

On the side, Xie Ce listened to the two of them, and then came over and said, "Grandmother Qi, mother, I also want to play Cuju!"

Yin Mingyu simply said, "Practice your martial arts."

Xie Ce was very aware of current affairs and immediately walked away, "Okay~"

Seeing how the mother and son were getting along, Mrs. Qi shook her head amusingly.

When Qi Jiedushi arrived in the front yard, he knew that his wife was going to attend Yin Mingyu's banquet again, so he was very calm, what to do and what to do.

At this point, Xie Qin wanted to use Qi Jiedushi to wrestle with the local forces in South Vietnam, and took another big step forward.

Yin Mingyu was really interested in the cuju competition. He didn't leave Xie Ce to play elsewhere. He and Mrs. Qi chatted endlessly about the cuju competition for a long time. Xie Ce returned to the state yahou house together.

She asked Xie Qin for another two hundred taels, and Xie Qin agreed without hesitation.

Yin Mingyu didn't leave, and said to Xie Qin: "Lang Jun, write a word for me."

Xie Qin unfolded the paper directly, raised the pen and asked, "Write what?"

Yin Mingyu said.

Xie Qin paused and looked up helplessly at Yin Mingyu, "Why are you writing this?"

Yin Mingyu said: "Xiao Langjun sheared the wool, I have not criticized him, but I have to teach him some lessons."

Almost all of Xie Qin's hesitations in his life came from Yin Mingyu, and he was a little unable to write.

"Lang Jun~" Yin Mingyu urged, "Write quickly, Xiao Lang Jun has to be supervised by his father."

Xie Qin couldn't, so he had to pick up the pen again and write down.

That night, Xie Ce didn't know anything and fell asleep on time.

After he fell asleep, Yin Mingyu personally hung Xie Governor's calligraphy on the head of his bed.

Nanny Tong looked at the words above, her face stiff.

The next day, when Xie Ce was still awake, he rolled around on the bed a few times before sitting up in a daze. After a while, he realized that there was a word on the head of the bed—

There are only more than 5,000 days away from the Spring Festival, and we are moving forward.

This is the day counted according to Xie Qinchun's age.

Xie Ce still didn't know what it meant, but he would know sooner or later.
