Jiang Anyi received the court's will on December 19, and according to the custom, this year will be spent in Fuluo County.

However, Xin Fei knew the news that her husband was summoned to Beijing after the New Year, so she used a little private power to use Longwei's flying pigeons to spread to Longwei's Mansion in Lizhou. Du Jitao, the commander of Longwei Prefecture in Lizhou, was rewarded for exterminating the mountain bandits in Huangyangzhai, and after receiving the summons, he immediately sent a letter to Jiang Anyi in Fuluo County to express his congratulations, so Jiang Anyi received the message as early as 11 December.

Jiang Huang's family was originally a little hesitant, whether to celebrate the New Year in Fuluo County or return to Pingshan Town, it is said that he wants to go home for the New Year, not to mention that An Yong is at home alone, but the eldest grandson here is here, and he is really reluctant. When he was hesitating, the news came, and Jiang Huang didn't say a word, packed up and got up, of course, he had to take his baby grandson with him.

Mr. Zhang, Zhen'er, Shi Shi and others have long regarded the Jiang Mansion in Pingshan Town as their home, and they are all happy to be able to go back for the New Year, but only one person has made a mistake - Huang Dongquan. Jiang Anyi put his cousin Huang Dongquan in the Yamen's house as the head of the account, for more than a year, Huang Dongquan has been in the limelight, and the people in the Yamen call him brother and brother, and live freely, now his cousin is going back to Beijing, and he has not arranged an official position, so it is impossible to take himself to the capital, whether he will return to Pingshan Town or stay in Fuluo County.

Jiang Anyi said with a smile: "You have also experienced it now, and you are familiar with dealing with human relations, and you can help your father with some business when you go back to Pingshan Town; It's okay to stay in Fuluo County, our business will definitely come here in the future, you can gain a foothold in the county government, start a family in the future, and it can be regarded as a branch and leaf light lintel, this yellow house is even a congratulatory gift from your cousin in advance. ”

Huang Dongquan decided to stay in Fuluo County after careful consideration, and although there is no shortage of places to return to Pingshan Town, his parents and cousins are there, how can he stand alone in Fuluo County, not to mention that the successor Liu County Ling and Qin County Cheng are all cousins' friends, and they will definitely take more care of themselves, and they have a good reputation in Fuluo County and have made a lot of friends. He often goes to the Fu Ji Tea House on the street to drink tea, and he fell in love with Fu Ting, the second daughter of the Fu shopkeeper, and was thinking that Aunt Yang would go to the door to propose marriage after the New Year.

Jiang Huang's family can't take care of this matter, Fuluo County to Pingshan Town is about ten days away, Jiang Chenzhi and Mr. Zhang's children are still young, and they can't walk too fast on the road, so they have to leave in advance. After sending off his family, only Jiang Anyi and Huang Dongquan were left in Fuluo County, and Wang Niu at home let Jiang Anyi stay, and there were four servants to take care of Huang Dongquan and help take care of the family.

Jiang Anyi, as a cousin, of course had to worry about Huang Dongquan's family affairs and personally went to the door to propose his relatives. The shopkeeper is very familiar with Huang Dongquan, the young man often comes to the teahouse to drink tea, and sometimes he will laugh with the second daughter Fu Ting, who helped in the teahouse. Lord Jiang came to propose marriage, this is a big face, and it is a good thing that you can't find it with a lantern, and the Fu family immediately agreed. Da Zheng male and female marriage is divided into six steps: Nacai, asking for names, Naji, Nazheng, inviting dates, and welcoming in person, Jiang Anyi did two things, Nacai and asking for names, and the rest After Jiang Anyi returned home, the third uncle would come to Fuluo County to preside.

The news that the old lady took her grandson home spread quickly, and when the servants of the Huang Mansion went to the street to purchase, they told the news that Master Jiang was recalled to the capital by the Son of Heaven, and soon Liu Jiusi and Qin Zixiong heard the news, both happy and a little reluctant, and they got along for more than a year, which can be regarded as a harmonious relationship, especially Qin Zixiong, and Jiang Anyi are even more friends, and I don't know if we can meet again after a farewell. Why do you say goodbye, only drinking, at the end of the year, there is nothing to do in the yamen, starting from Liu Jiusi and Qin Zixiong, Jiang Anyi spends the day in the restaurant every day, relying on his profound internal strength, he barely keeps sober.

When the holy decree arrived on the 19th, Jiang Anyi had made all the preparations, the affairs of the yamen had been handed over properly, and the other people had already said goodbye. There were unexpectedly a lot of people coming, and a group of people came forward to toast and say goodbye, Jiang Anyi was very drunk, and was finally carried back home by Huang Dongquan.

On the second day, Jiang Anyi said goodbye to Huang Dongquan and others, and walked out of the house with charcoal. The street was densely packed with people, and everyone stood quietly and came to see off Jiang Anyi. Seeing Jiang Anyi appear in front of the door, everyone bent down and said respectfully: "The people of Fuluo congratulate Lord Jiang, I wish you smooth sailing, a bright future, and a marquis as soon as possible." ”

Jiang Anyi's eyes were a little moist, and he said in a choked voice: "How can Jiang Mou, how can he be, everyone came to see him off, Jiang Mou...... Jiang is ashamed. ”

Liu Jiusi came to Jiang Anyi with a tray in his hand, the tray was held high, and he said loudly: "The adults are clean and the officials are governed, the bandits are eliminated, the three religions are prospered, and the taxes are one, the people are rich, they know the etiquette, and the adults are really the parents of the rich people." On behalf of the people of Fuluo, Liu toasted the adults with three glasses of wine, and wished the adults a bright and prosperous journey. ”

Jiang Anyi held the cup in both hands, three cups in a row, accompanied by Liu Jiusi, Qin Zixiong and others, holding charcoal, slowly passing through the crowd alley, some people on both sides held trays, holding wine and food on the plate, shouting "Adult, please drink a cup of bar", "Adult, these eggs are taken to the road to fill hunger", "Adult, you must remember to come back", many people shed tears.

At the north gate, Jiang Anyi stood still, looked at the people around him, bowed to the ground, straightened up and said loudly: "There will be a farewell for sending you a thousand miles, Jiang has said goodbye." ”

Just as he was about to fly on the horse, a group of village elders led by Huang Laohan and Wu Laohan came forward to toast, and Jiang Anyi had to drink three glasses; Then the officials and officials of the yamen came up to salute again, and they drank three cups again, and saw a long line behind them, Jiang Anyi smiled and said: "If you drink it again, you will be drunk, I'm afraid it won't work." ”

Everyone laughed, and someone shouted: "Today can't go and tomorrow, the adults are drunk and just stay in Fuluo County for another day." ”

"I am deeply affectionate, Jiang can't drink anymore." Jiang Anyi said goodbye again, but saw Qin Zixiong coming over with a burden, and said: "Anyi, this is a little bit of the heart of everyone in Fuluo County, and it can be regarded as a gift." I know that you are not short of money, but please accept this money, don't cold the hearts of the people. ”

Jiang Anyi untied the burden, in the silver ticket, there were scattered silver taels, and a bunch of copper coins, it seems that Qin Zixiong is not lying, it is everyone's money. Jiang Anyi took a copper coin from it, held it high above his head and said: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, I have received your affection, and Jiang will treasure this copper coin, and remember the deep affection and righteousness of everyone at any time." For the rest of the money, please ask Liu County to buy some food for Jiang to buy some food, and if someone is not guaranteed food and clothing, he will save him from the righteous warehouse, which is also what Jiang did for Fuluo County in the end. Ladies and gentlemen, we will see you soon. ”

After speaking, Jiang Anyi flew on the horse, not daring to look at the people who knelt on the ground behind him, the charcoal flew over with four hooves, stepped on the smoke and dust all the way, a few tears fell on the official road, Jiang Anyi shed tears and left Fuluo County. In a hurry, Jiang Anyi returned home on December 26.

The Chinese New Year is a day for family reunions, the Jiang family has been decorated with joy, this year the family has added a mouth, Jiang Anyi is facing a promotion again, and the reception of people who come to congratulate is busy from the year to the year, and the whole Pingshan Town is immersed in joy. Jiang Anyi's high-profile return, announcing that Niangniang's plan to seize the perfume industry was temporarily frustrated, and Wang Xianling came to Jiangfu early on the first day of the Lunar New Year to pay New Year's greetings.

The town has expanded a lot more than before, except that there is no city wall, it is not worse than Xinqi County, although it is the New Year, there are shops starting to do business on the second day of the new year, the Jiang family's wine is easy to sell, and many people take advantage of the good business to come to buy goods.

There is an Anju inn in the south of the town, which is a new business opened only two years ago, and with the geographical advantage of Pingshan Town, business is booming. The store opened on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and as soon as the store door opened, there were customers who came to invest in the store. The shopkeeper's surname is Hong, a native of Xinqi County, and his family lives in Pingshan Town, so he bought a vacant land and built this inn.

When the door is opened, there will be business to the door, which is a good sign, Hong shopkeeper was full of joy, and asked the guest: "Distinguished guest surname, do you come to Pingshan Town to do business?" How many days are you going to stay? ”

Doing inn business is naturally bright-eyed, Hong shopkeeper looks at the guests in front of him single, not like he is here to do business, in the cold and freezing, the flowers in Pingshan Town have not yet bloomed, and now it is not the season to play. Looking at the dress of the guests, it looks like a dart master walking the rivers and lakes, Hong shopkeeper is careful, such a man has a big temper, the money is easy to earn, but it is easy to get into trouble if he is not careful.

"Oh, I visited a friend passing by here, and I heard that the scenery of Pingshan Town is good, and there is a champion, so I stopped by to see it and stayed for two days temporarily." The guest looked like he was in his forties, with a beard and a strong face. Hong shopkeeper registration guide, see the guest's surname He, is a native of Beijing, a visiting friend from afar, even years away from home, there is really Yaxing.

followed Xiao Er to the private room on the second floor, Yang Yudong pushed open the window, and from here you can see the tall champion archway, no need to ask, the house behind the archway is Jiang Anyi's home. He had already heard that Jiang Anyi had returned home, and he was visiting relatives and friends these days, and he was very busy, chatting with Xiao Er just now, and heard that Jiang Anyi had entered the county early in the morning.

No one could recognize him except Jiang Anyi, Yang Yudong walked around the town with confidence and boldness, familiarized himself with the path, and then sat idly in the teahouse, as he expected, many people were talking about Jiang Anyi. Yang Yudong listened to it by the way, and he actually heard that Jiang Anyi lived in the east of the courtyard of Erjin.

There was a commotion on the street, someone said hello loudly, Yang Yudong listened carefully, it was Jiang Anyi who came back. Following Jiang Anyi from a distance, watching Jiang Anyi enter the house, Yang Yudong circled around Jiang Mansion twice, and he was going to take Jiang Anyi's life tonight.
