Chapter 367: The most correct decision in this life!

Chapter 367 The most correct decision in this life!

Fortunately, Jiayin, Jiaxi and Jiaan ran into the house and shouted, "Grandma, second uncle! Someone is coming with an imperial edict!"

Imperial edict?

Li Laoer and the old lady both breathed a sigh of relief, but still hurried out the door.

Tao Hongying came out of the kitchen while taking off her apron, and stepped forward to help the old lady.

Grandma He brought Shui Ling Shui Yun and was already busy preparing the incense table.

In fact, it is just a matter of setting up a long small table, moving an incense burner, and lighting three incense sticks to express respect and awe for the imperial power.

Then, the Li family opened the door and welcomed the **** who came in.

The young and old of the Li family knelt in the courtyard, and the villagers knelt outside the yard, everyone bowed their heads to listen to the order.

The **** did not show any airs and read the decree loudly.

Everyone could not understand those gorgeous rhetoric, but everyone understood the title of the first-grade lady and Li Laoer as an earl.

“Appreciate this!”

As soon as the last two words were spoken, everyone stretched their necks and shouted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long Live Your Majesty, Long Live Your Majesty!"

Li Laoer helped his mother stand up, then took the imperial edict with both hands and enshrined it on the incense table.

The **** smiled and raised his hands in salute, "Congratulations to the old lady, congratulations to the uncle!"

"Same joy!" Li Laoer's face flushed with excitement, and he quickly returned the gift, and finally asked: "Father, we are at home and have never gone out. I really don't know where I can take credit for this sudden favor from the emperor..."

The **** laughed and said: "I don't know something. The eldest son of your house has obtained high-yield new grain in the south. Today's harvest is good, which alerted the emperor and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to harvest together.

"The emperor said that such a high yield of grain is a blessing from heaven and will benefit the country and the people. He will reward the eldest man of your house and the eldest son of the Liu family. Mr. Liu has been given a fourth-grade position in the Department of Agriculture and Forestry, and will help expand the business in the future. Plant new food.

"When it was the turn of the eldest man of your house, the eldest man said that he had left home since he was a child and was ashamed of the old lady and you as a brother. Therefore, he wanted to ask for a royal title for the old lady and a casual position for you. The emperor immediately granted the title. The old lady has granted you the title of Zhongshan Bo, and it is hereditary. "

The old lady and Li Laoer finally understood.

Li Laoer's eyes suddenly turned red.

They are all brothers in the same family. How can he compare what happened before? Besides, the eldest brother was also harmed when he was away from home. As brothers, it is too late to feel sorry for him, so how can he complain...

I do n’t want the elder brother to keep in my heart. Today, I abandon everything and give him an official position, just to fulfill his wish to study as an official.

Mrs. Li also wiped away tears. She told her eldest son earlier that the Yan family had come to cause trouble, but she didn't care. Instead, her eldest son felt that she had been wronged and it stayed in his heart.

Today, I even begged her for a life order, just so that she would never be bullied by anyone again!

Jiayin saw that her grandma and second uncle were both sighing, and her mother was just happy. No one greeted the eunuch, so she hurriedly ran to get two fruits and gave them to the eunuch, "Uncle, eat the fruits. They are grown on the mountain at my home. They are so sweet." "

The eunuchs have never seen the good news, but the people they serve in the palace wish they had ten thousand holes in their hearts, and the most intelligent ones are the most intelligent ones.

Almost instantly, he guessed that this was Princess Kangle of the Li family and the adopted daughter of the Marquis.

He quickly bent down, took the fruit, and said with a smile: "Oh, thank you, Princess, for the reward."

At this moment, Li Laoer also realized what he was doing and quickly invited him into the house for tea.

But the **** refused and explained: "I'll come and try uncle's good tea next time. It's going to get dark soon. We have to rush back to the city, so we won't disturb uncle."

Li Laoer has no choice but to stay, so he wants to send people out.

At this time, Jiayin pulled his sleeve and gave him a purse.

Li Laoer subconsciously pinched a handful and found two small gold picks inside, and suddenly felt very ashamed.

He was so happy and confused that he was even worse than his four-year-old niece, who actually forgot to reward her. Li Laoer hurriedly took a few steps forward, gave the **** his purse, and exchanged a few words with him before sending him away.

The villagers had been holding back for a long time, and finally they could speak.

So everyone rushed forward and asked all kinds of questions.

“Second sir, are you an uncle now?”

“What does hereditary succession mean? Can sons and grandsons inherit it?”

“And my aunt will be Mrs. Gaoming in the future. I heard that Mrs. Gaoming doesn’t have to kneel when she meets an official. Doesn’t anyone dare to bully her?”

The village chief shouted to everyone, "Shut up first and listen to the second gentleman speak slowly."

Li Laoer was also happy and said with a smile: "My eldest brother brought back some new and improved seeds from outside in the spring, and now we have a good harvest.

"The emperor was very happy and made my mother the first-grade imperial concubine. This title can only be given to the mother or daughter-in-law of a first-grade official. Except for the queen mother and empress in the palace, my mother does not have to kneel to anyone else.

“My position as earl is hereditary, which means that as long as our Li family does not commit treason, our descendants can continue to inherit and remain earl.”

The villagers gasped in shock and then became ecstatic!

“It’s great! The emperor’s grace is so great!”

“Fu Niu’er has just become the princess, and Aunt Li has become the royal wife!”

"You can no longer call me Mr. Er, you should call me Uncle!"

Mrs. Li hugged her granddaughter and said with a smile: "We can't control what outsiders call us, but how our family is doing on a daily basis will be how it will be in the future! No matter how generous the emperor's reward is, our family still has two eyes and one mouth. "

Everyone burst into laughter.

“That’s true, my aunt is still so happy.”

After joking for a while, the village chief said, "Sister, shouldn't we celebrate such a happy event?"

“Of course,” the old lady was thinking about this just now.

"It's too late today. Let's hold a banquet tomorrow. Let's liven up the village. We invite the people from Dahuaishu, Dawangzhuang and Xiaowangzhuang, as well as the villagers who helped build the archway to have a drink. All three of their villages are Fu Niu. My son’s fiefdom will be considered half of my own family from now on!”

“Okay, everyone, let’s go back to eat and sleep. Get up early tomorrow. It’s not too late to pick the fruits on the mountain all day long. Let’s have some fun first.” The village chief waved his pipe and pot, which settled the matter.

The villagers were filled with excitement and dispersed one after another.

They began to follow the Li family when they came from Qingshui Village and fled all the way here.

It can be said that the reason they have such a good life with no worries about food and clothing is because they followed in the footsteps of the Li family.

Facts have proved that this is also the most correct decision they have ever made...

Although their surname is not Li, they share the blessings and misfortunes of the Li family.

Now the Li family has a princess, a wife named Gaoming, and an uncle...

I don’t know what kind of more amazing fortune will come in the future. As long as they don’t fall behind, their lives will definitely get better!

The Li family closed the courtyard gate, and everyone was happy.

Jia An’s family is happy to sit next to her grandma, and the good news is sitting in her mother’s arms.

Brother Cat was restrained on the second uncle, looking left and right, and finally pulled the second uncle's beard. Seeing the second uncle frowning in pain, he said with satisfaction: "Second uncle is still the second uncle, he has not turned into some count. !”

The old lady couldn't help laughing, "Earl is an official position. Your second uncle will only be an official from now on. How can he turn into a monster?"
