Chapter 275 The future is limitless

The two brothers have directly changed from soldiers to generals of the fourth rank Huwei, and the fourth rank of Huyong. They have studied hard for ten years, so it is really not as great as the credit for fighting **** the battlefield.

The two brothers were enshrined in the Golden Luan Hall, and rode through the streets for a day, which can be described as extremely beautiful.

The emperor also specially gave the two brothers two houses, and arranged for the posts of the commander of the capital patrol and the commander of the suburban military camp.

They are all people who hold the military power, and the reason is also because they are the adopted sons of Yuan's family. They are all from grass roots and have no background, so there is no need to worry about their actions.

Being an emperor is really not easy. Take one step and see ten steps. No wonder every emperor in history lived to a short age.

At the end of March, the two brothers went home to visit their relatives. The magistrate Wang and the county magistrate Zhu came to Qiao's house to welcome them, and Yuan Jiaqi also rushed back from She County.

A fourth-rank general is at the same level as Wang Zhifu, but holding military power is different. Even Wang Zhifu has to greet him with a smile.

In the living room, Qiao Mai and the Yuan family sat together at the head, and the others sat at the head. The two brothers officially met their parents with a prostration, and then greeted everyone.

Everyone sat together, talking and laughing, and Yun'er briefly talked about what happened in the barracks after serving as a soldier.

As for the matter that he entered the border after fainting on the battlefield, he just looked at Qiao Mai, and just smiled at him, and he understood everything.

It turned out that the mother had been silently protecting their brother, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

It was really his mother who saved him from the battlefield where the dead body lay. He just said, the scars all over his body suddenly healed up, and the person who was supposed to be damned appeared in the border gate in good condition.

Qiao Mai stopped looking at him, got up and went to the kitchen to arrange a banquet.

This time the brothers came home for the second time, so they had to make a big deal. After arranging the kitchen, she went straight to Jingtai Restaurant.

Shopkeeper Tong knew she would come, "Miss Qiao, is your family going to make a big deal?"

"Yes, please arrange it better, I will hold a three-day feast for the people of the whole town,"

"Hey, how grand is that?"

"Put a banquet in front of your door, let's have a good time together, and ask the shopkeeper Niu for the money, so I can arrange a little bit for me"

"Don't worry, we will take care of it for you"

As soon as Mrs. Qiao left, Shopkeeper Tong clicked his tongue.

"It's really a blessing. My husband is a fifth-rank county magistrate, and my son is a fourth-rank general. They are both young and have a limitless future."

Mayor Qian asked the guards to tie the trees in the town full of red cloth, and recruited an opera troupe to sing. Tianshui Town was as lively as New Year's Eve.

The more beautiful Qiao Mai's house is, the more uncomfortable some people feel. Qiao Shicheng and his wife are at home, feeling as sad as if they have been fried in oil.

"His father, we shouldn't have, we should have broken up with her when she was divorced. Look, how beautiful is she now?"

"Okay, there is no one who sells regret medicine in the world. I think the dead girl is determined not to recognize us. If she does not recognize her, she will not. I hope that she and her brothers will have room for relaxation in the future. When we are gone, her two brothers You won't have to suffer any more."

"It's her husband who is soft-hearted and arranged for our son to work there. The food is good, the wages are high, and he has gained weight several times."

"If you think her husband is soft-hearted, you are wrong. If the dead girl hadn't nodded, he would have let her two older brothers stay there. After all, she didn't do anything wrong."

"I heard that the brothers of the Yuan family are also working there?"

"My brother must be biased."

"Hey~ I heard that girl is going to hold a water banquet in the town, and it will be back for three days, so let's go secretly to eat too?"

"Why are you doing it secretly? She can give it to outsiders. We are her biological parents, so we eat openly. Anyway, she doesn't watch at the water table."

"That's right, let's go to the town to inquire about it tomorrow?"

"Okay, when the time comes, bring those two veterans from the Yuan family together?"

"Uh-huh."

As for the Tian family, the old man Tian has a new love, so naturally he no longer wants to be angry with Qiao Mai, and he doesn't dare now.

But when I heard that Qiao Mai was going to hold a three-day banquet, I planned to take my wife with me.

Tian Sanzhuang couldn't see any hope for the future. His arms and legs were broken, and he recovered, and he couldn't do too much movement. Now he can work as an official in the yamen, and he still has the honor of his father-in-law.

Seeing that Qiao Mai's life is getting better and better, and the children in the family are getting more and more promising, I feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, his son is not young anymore. Seeing that his son is smart and cute, he also planned his son's future in his heart, and he began to have strange thoughts in his heart.

That is to train the son well, if he is not promising, then let the son be promising.

I don’t have the reputation of Qiao Mai, so let my son.

It is probably impossible for a son to be more promising than other people's sons, as long as he is more promising than himself, even if he is a Juren, he is much better than him.

In mid-April, the Fengyun brothers returned to the capital, and when they left, Qiao Mai gave Yunfeng 200,000 taels of silver notes.

Let him use this silver to start buying dowry gifts. He wants the best in everything, and he has to prepare one hundred and twenty liters no matter what. If it is not enough, he will write to her to ask for it.

Let him walk around with the Duke of Zhen Guo more, communicate with the Duke of Zhen Guo more, and see what the other party wants?

Yun Feng remembered everything in his heart, holding the two hundred thousand taels of silver notes, he felt heavy.

For his wedding, his mother was so willing to pay two hundred thousand taels of silver at once. He knew how much income the family had.

It seems that the mother really treats them as sons, and she can't help getting closer to the mother Qiao Mai in her heart.

Not long after the two of them left, it was the season of harvesting wheat. Except for the north and south of Shexian County, all the places in the south were planted with winter wheat, which could be harvested in May.

The old emperor also wanted to harvest wheat. He personally took the internal affairs envoys to the Huangzhuang on the outskirts of the capital to personally supervise.

It turned out that this supervision didn’t matter. The fields in Huangzhuang were well maintained, the rain in the south was abundant, and the yield of wheat per mu unexpectedly reached 1,000 catties, which made the old emperor very happy.

Immediately issued an order to promote the Yuan family to the official position, retired the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in the capital, and transferred the Yuan family to be the Minister of the Ministry of Officials in the capital.

I'm sorry, this is a first-rank official, and it's also in charge of the appointment and dismissal of officials, examinations, promotions, transfers, and honors.

This is serious, what kind of official is the Ministry of Officials? That is the head of the six ministries, an official position that all officials have to curry favor with.

The emperor was very happy that the Yuan family had made great achievements, second was that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had allowed him to deal with too many things in secret, third was that the Minister of the Ministry of Officials had made small moves privately, and fourth was that there had been no suitable candidates in the past few years.

No, there it is!

Yuan Jiaqi was promoted to an official, and he was very happy in his heart. He did not dare to provoke a first-rank official in the capital, but he was reluctant to part with the Shexian County he had just built.

She was even more reluctant to part with Qiao Mai, she said she would not follow him to Beijing.

This is worrying, he wants to persuade his wife, but what she says is like an imperial decree, which cannot be easily changed.

Don't look at the promotion, he is not happy either!

However, the old man and the old lady are very happy, and Chuan'er is even more proud of his father. Although everyone knows how he came to be an official, he is still very happy.

But when they heard that Yuan Jiaqi wanted them to go to the capital together, they all shook their heads and refused to go.

How nice it is to be at home, with gentle breeze and light rain in spring, scorching fire and sun in summer, full ground in autumn, and heavy snow in winter. You can see different scenes in four seasons throughout the year.

But when they arrived in the capital, there was only rain and rain, the weather was still humid, the winter was so cold, and there was only a charcoal basin in the house, and they were not used to it without a kang.

No, no, now Yuan Jiaqi knows why his wife didn't go.

This is one of the reasons, and she doesn't like to socialize. There are her friends and her career here. Once she moves away, what will happen to this family? What a wonderful home, she couldn't bear it.
