Chapter 1116： exhort

"Does my uncle think I'm such a person?" Mu Yangling said with a smile: "You got it on your own merits. You were my person before, and even if Sinong Temple wanted to dig a wall, I didn't dare to do it. This time I let go. , it is natural for you to get an official position, but it is impossible for them to recruit you with a subordinate who is not in the mainstream. With your merits, it is not difficult to seal a fifth or sixth rank official."

Liu Ting opened his mouth wide and his palms were sweating with nervousness. He never thought that he would be an official one day.

Liu Ting went home dizzy.

The brothers Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian were lying on the reclining chairs in the yard, basking in the sun. Several great-grandchildren were playing with building blocks at their feet. When they saw Liu Ting's face in a trance, Liu Daqian frowned and asked, "Are you here? What's wrong?"

Mrs. Zhao stepped forward to support her husband and asked with concern, "Did something happen to the farm?"

Liu Ting grabbed his wife's hand and murmured, "A Ling said I can be an official!"

The Zhao family was taken aback. The first feeling was that Mu Yangling was going to seek an official position for his family by using power for personal gain, and the two Liu Daqian brothers were also taken aback.

Liu Ting saw that his father's face had changed, he immediately returned to his senses, and hurriedly relayed what A Ling said.

Liu Daqian's complexion gradually improved, Zhao shi looked around and asked hesitantly, "This, can you be an official without the imperial examinations and wars?"

Liu Daqian has lived many years and knows a lot more. He heard the words: "There used to be filial piety, but now it's gone, but it should be feasible to be elected as an official. A Ting has no other skills, and he I know how to farm, although I don’t know why farming is so good for an official, but since A Ling said it’s okay, it’s okay. She’s not someone who uses power for personal gain.”

Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian were both excited, "My Liu family can also have an official!"

The current life of the Liu family is not difficult. They can be regarded as wealthy. Not to mention the money Liu Ting makes, but Liu Lang's two farming and livestock businesses are very wealthy.

So the great-grandchildren were sent to the academy to study, but it was of no use. So far, the Liu family has not found a seed that can read.

And the descendants who serve in the army are at most a small flag, not even an official, and they don’t want their descendants to fight for their lives on the battlefield, so Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian’s plans for their descendants are to recognize some words, Will settle accounts, work hard to grow rich.

And now the two of them immediately changed their plans, knew all the characters, knew how to settle accounts, were proficient in farming, and became rich as officials.

Liu Daqian happily took Liu Ting's hand, "This matter has not been decided yet, we can't say it out, but we have to celebrate and celebrate at home. From A Ting's family, go buy some good wine and good food and come back."

Liu Daqian took Liu Ting into the ancestral hall to offer incense to his ancestors.

Liu Erqian sat on the threshold smoking a cigarette, and muttered: "Brother, we can be regarded as honorable ancestors..."

In the room, Liu Daqian was teaching his son, "People like us have accumulated ten lifetimes of blessings to become officials. You have to be careful in your words and deeds, don't waste your blessings, and accumulate virtue for future generations. ."

Liu Ting knew that his father had always been strict, disciplined himself, and never did anything wrong. At this time, he made this request only because he was afraid that future generations would take advantage of the situation to misbehave. He was also an honest person, although he heard that he could become an official. In an instant, he was so excited that he almost lost his temper, but his heart did not change, so he naturally responded at this time.

Liu Daqian added: "Also, when you become an official, you must do your best, but don't be mediocre to the Liu family and A-Ling. Although A-Ling said that you deserve this official, but if you don't have her recommended and Her relationship is that even if you can do ten times more, you may not be able to succeed. Look at the field, how many people can farm? I have never heard of anyone who can become an official just because they can farm, so we have to read She's good, if you don't do your job well, those high-ranking officials in the DPRK will probably talk about A Ling in private."

"Father, these sons all know," Liu Ting knelt on the ground and saw his father's body was shaky, so he quickly got up to support him, and said, "Don't worry, if your son can do it, he will be the official, if he doesn't have the ability, he will resign, absolutely. Don't embarrass Arling."

Liu Daqian heard that, hesitated for a while and nodded slowly.

That night, the brothers Liu Daqian and Liu Erqian drank two glasses of wine and fell asleep while snoring. Liu Erqian said vaguely: "Brother, you can live a few more years, if you don't do anything else, just for the sake of it. A Ting can be a good official, I heard that when his parents die, the official should resign and go home to keep filial piety."

Liu Daqian gave a shudder, opened his eyes and glanced at his brother, then slowly covered the quilt, replied softly, and then fell asleep.

Afterwards, Liu Daqian focused on taking care of his body. He used to drink medicines that he always felt wasted money and did not drink.

Mu Yangling patrolled the farm for two days. After making some adjustments, she ended the patrol work. She did not go back to the city immediately, but rode around here with Qi Haoran.

The fifth battalion still stands there, but it is no longer a camp for training soldiers, but a meat processing workshop for the remnants of veterans. Hutou and their favorite jerky are all produced here.

Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling did not enter the camp, but rode their horses to look at the camp from afar. Qi Haoran smiled and said, "It's really cruel that the quilt is used as a workshop in such a well-defended camp."

"This is no longer a border, and there are no gates. The soldiers staying here will be of little use. You also said that this camp is well-defended. Wouldn't it be a pity if it was abandoned? I think Zijin is a reasonable use of resources."

"If he hears this, he will definitely say, 'My lord is here to help you arrange veteran soldiers. If you don't want to tell me earlier, you will move the workshop away'," Qi Haoran followed Fan Zijin's side and glanced at Mu Yang contemptuously. Spirit glance.

Mu Yangling laughed and said, "You can show it to him when you go back."

Mu Yangling smelled the fragrance in the air, swallowed, and said, "When we go back, we will go to the workshop to ask for a few jars of jerky. I haven't eaten the rabbit jerky from our workshop for a long time."

Qi Haoran said with saliva: "I want to eat the food made by my mother-in-law, A Ling, how about we go into the mountains to hunt a deer and drag it back to cook for my mother-in-law?"

Mu Yangling drooled at the thought of her mother's craftsmanship, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to the mountain now and go home in the afternoon."

The couple went into the mountain with bows and arrows on their backs, but as the injured, Qi Haoran could only follow behind and could not do it himself. already."

Mu Yangling was unmoved, "But you still have to be careful. You better not make big moves in the past two months, but you almost hurt your heart."

Qi Haoran could only pouted and followed, until they dragged their prey back to the General's Mansion and saw Shu's expression softened.

Shu Wanniang looked at the prey thrown by the guards in the front yard and turned her head away, "A Ling, have you gone into the mountains to hunt again?"

Mu Yangling said with a smile: "Mother, Haoran and I want to eat your dishes."

Shu Wanniang said strangely: "Then you don't have to go hunting in the mountains, you can just buy it at the market."
