Chapter 284 The government came to arrest her
In other words, the last one is the iron-blooded dean of studies in the previous life, with a strict personality but good knowledge.
Jiang Youzhen had a general idea of the personalities of these three people. The next one he invited was just someone with some reputation, and Mr. Jiang felt that the magistrate would not invite him.
Jiang Youzhen is the top candidate. It is simply ridiculous to find people who are not as good as her to comment on her article.
"Thank you, Master! I am grateful." Jiang Youzhen bowed deeply to Master Jiang. Although Master Jiang was indeed lacking in knowledge, his teacher ethics were beyond doubt.
Even though Jiang Youzhen was about to go to the provincial academy, Master Jiang still cared about her. She remembered this kindness in her heart.
Master Jiang looked at the thin young man in front of him, with a feeling of reluctance and relief in his eyes.
It has to be said that he and Jiang Youzhen have only known each other for more than a year, and even during this period, he really hasn't taught the other party much. Most of the time, he relied on Jiang Youzhen's natural understanding and the knowledge he learned from literary battles.
But with a student as talented as Jiang Youzhen, which teacher would be willing to let him go?
"Don't be impulsive in the future. When you enter the government, the situation in the court is treacherous and it's not as simple as you think. If you make a mistake, you will lose everything. It's not just your future that will be at stake, but also the lives of you and your family."
Jiang Youzhen was deeply moved by Mr. Jiang's earnest advice. Looking back, he still gained a lot of kindness after traveling through time.
"The students will keep it in mind!" Without further ado, she will never forget this kindness.
"By the way, I haven't congratulated you yet for getting first place in the exam." Jiang Youzhen remembered looking at the list just now and quickly congratulated him.
Wen Ruyu smiled bitterly. With Jiang Youzhen around, his first place in the exam today had been completely ignored. But his junior brother was really good, and he felt inferior to him.
Qinghe Village
Two horses came galloping over, and when they saw many villagers sitting under a big tree at the entrance of the village ahead, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Hey? Where did the horses in our village come from?" Aunt Niu asked curiously as she looked at the dust rising not far away.
"What? Aren't there only three families in our village who can afford to buy a horse? Could it be the boy of the head of the village?" Aunt Niu's husband Dafu, who had just returned from the fields carrying a hoe, replied casually.
"It doesn't look like it! Could it be that Xiaolang is back?" At this time, Aunt Ya, who was carrying a basket, had just walked to the front of the house. Hearing this, she stood on tiptoe and looked out.
"Didn't they say that the young man from the Jiang family went to the county town to take an exam? It will take at least ten days or half a month, it can't be that fast?" Doctor Liang was carrying a medicine box and was pulled by a villager as he passed by.
"Doctor Liang, don't worry about this. My wife seems to be giving birth. Please go over and take a look."
"Oh my! This woman is giving birth, why are you looking for me instead of a midwife? I can't deliver a baby."
"Eh? He's wearing an official robe, a government official!" Aunt Niu had sharp eyes and had already noticed that the person in front of her was wearing an official uniform from the yamen. She immediately slapped her thigh and said.
"Are they here to arrest Jiang Haiqing? Didn't I hear that Jiang Haiqing still has some unpaid loans? He came to ask for it last month! He must have paid it back, so he called the police, right?"
Aunt Niu immediately thought of Jiang Haiqing. That bastard hadn't paid back all the money he owed last year, and the debt collectors often came looking for him.
"How can we make the government arrest people for usury? Besides, Jiang Haiqing almost passed the imperial examination, so they won't dare to ask for too much, right?"
"Didn't you fail? How can you still be a virgin?"
"That's called a Tongsheng, and he's still a virgin. If you tell others about it, they'll make you laugh!"
Many villagers heard the noise and came over to watch the excitement. Everyone was talking about it enthusiastically. When they heard this, they burst into laughter.
"Excuse me, does Jiang Youzhen live in this village?" A yamen runner dismounted not far from the tree and asked everyone.
Aunt Ya was shocked when she heard this. What was going on? Why did the government come? Did Xiao Lang commit a crime?
"Hey, big brother, Jiang Youzhen lives here. What do you want to see him about?" Aunt Ya hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"Where does he live?" The bailiff took a look at Aunt Ya, who was dressed fairly neatly, and his tone softened a little.
"Uncle Cha, are you talking about his previous home or his current home? Did he commit a crime and you came to arrest him?" Aunt Guihua stepped forward and interrupted. Her eyes immediately lit up and she became expectant.
Jiang Youzhen had offended her before, so of course she didn't wish Jiang Youzhen well.
It is said that the exam will take ten days or half a month. The officers came so early, Jiang Youzhen must have done something wrong.
"Why are there two homes?" The bailiff who arrived later was very surprised and asked with a frown.
"He was adopted by his family and now lives at the foot of the mountain at the end of the village. That's the large courtyard with two entrances. He used to live in an old house in the middle of the village, not far in front. That's the three-room mud house at home."
Aunt Guihua could no longer contain her excitement as she spoke, "Brother Cha, if you don't know it, I'll take you there!"
"Go away! What does this have to do with you, an old woman? Go back and cook. I'll take the official over." Aunt Guihua's husband Jiang Jiu hurried forward to dissuade her. Didn't he know what kind of person Guihua was?
Just because he offended Jiang Youzhen last year and what he did afterwards made him lose face in the clan, he certainly couldn't let Guihua cause trouble in the Jiang family again.
"Ah? That's a pity!" One of the bailiffs shook his head. He was actually adopted?
The fourteen-year-old top candidate will surely rise to a high position in the future. If he is adopted away, wouldn't that mean he is handing over all his wealth and glory to someone else?
I don’t know how much regret the family must have felt after they learned the news.
"What? Did Xiaolang really do something wrong?" Aunt Ya asked anxiously.
"How is that possible? It's a good thing. Come on! Take us to her home, her new home." The bailiff waved his hand and said.
Aunt Ya was worried about others, so she led the way herself. But how could the villagers miss the opportunity to watch the show? A large group of people followed behind them, all planning to go to the Jiang family's new house to watch the excitement.
In the Jiang family's old house, Chen was sewing shoe soles on the kang.
"These damn lazy women, they just open their mouths to eat and drink all day long, and never do any housework! The eldest daughter-in-law thinks she is the wife of a wealthy family! And that vixen in the eldest daughter-in-law, she has a headache or a sore back or legs all day long. Anyway, she just can't do any work."
Chen was mumbling to herself when suddenly a needle pierced her hand. She was so angry that she cursed.
"Old Fourth, are you still breathing? It's your turn to cook today, where have you been?"
The old lady Chen started to curse, "You are such a conscienceless person. Your whole family actually expects an old lady like me to serve them."
Before Luo entered the house, she heard the old lady's scolding and immediately rolled her eyes.
When she was the second son's wife, the old lady was used to torturing her daughter-in-law, but she was not Shen, so she would not spoil her.
"Oh my! Mom! Something terrible has happened."
"What are you yelling about? Have you cooked the meals at home and fed the pigs? Have you chopped the firewood in the yard? Liu Ya is lying in bed with a minor illness, and you, as her mother, don't know how to take over the work? You still want me, an old lady, to serve you?"
Luo pouted, "Why don't you ask the old lady to serve you?" But she was in a good mood now and didn't intend to care.
Chen looked up and saw the smiling face on Luo's face, and she was immediately furious.
"Mom, calm down. I just got some good news. Jiang Youzhen has committed a crime, and the government has sent people to arrest him."
