Before dark, Xie Ning returned to the inner courtyard of the county government. Brother Yu ran wild in the restaurant for a day. Knowing that he was sleepy now, he stuck Xie Ning humming and wanting to hug him.

"Little Laipi." Xie Ning couldn't bear his eyes open, so he picked up Brother Yu and beat him horizontally.

Brother Yu squinted and was sleepy.

Xie Ning patted him on the back and swayed a few times before he fell asleep in his father's arms.

When Zhou Jinnian came back, Yu brother didn't wake up in his father's arms. Zhou Jinnian held his son while Xie Ning sat beside him and talked to him.

Xie Ning said: "In the afternoon, Afather said that he would hold a third all-fish banquet in Fucheng."

Zhou Jinnian was busy building the city for these two days. It was a good deal to have a meal with the businessman. The businessman paid for Nanyu to build a private school, only to ask Zhou Jinnian to approve him to build a temple of wealth outside the county.

This is normal. The foreigners are making a lot of money. They are afraid that future generations will not be able to keep their money. They build a temple of wealth and let the people go to worship voluntarily and ask for a "rich man to do his best."

But this must be approved by the local official Zhou Jinnian before it can be built.

In Zhou Jinnian's view, this is all a good thing. The people have a natural reverence for the ancestral temple. Having such a temple of wealth can also promote the prosperity of the surrounding commercial economy.

I’m busy with this, so I don’t have time to chat with my father, Feng Feng. Today I am free, but Feng Feng is busy again.

"I ordered the original Duan's teahouse, isn't this case closed? Why are you still suppressing the Duan's family?" Xie Ning asked softly.

Zhou Jinnian was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Go on, it's okay."

From the perspective of Qu Yingying, her brother was wronged to death. Wu Dao and Duan Daqian were the first to be held accountable. He was a wealthy businessman and had a certain reputation in Jiangnan. Dao put pressure on her, and indirectly killed her brother. Now that she has the ability, how could she let these two people be happy?

This section of Daqianyuan was also a poor man with black hair for nothing, and Qu Wenbo died unjustly under his anger. In Qu Yingying's eyes, he was a murderer of his brother and enemy.

Piansheng Qu Wenbo’s sister is struggling, but Duan Daqian couldn’t compete with the businessman, alas...

"It seems that this Master Wu is also a recent thing." Zhou Jinnian sighed, so he is also an official, and he has a guilty conscience, and the official is not stable.

To be a man should also be worthy of heart, is the foundation of survival.

Xie Ning nodded, it was about the passing of two innocent lives. What was left was the endless grievances between the Duan family and the Qu family, and he couldn't say anything.

Zhou Jinnian concluded: "So, no matter who you are, even if you wear Chinese clothes, there is no such thing as superiority. The way of survival is the principle of big and small."

"Yeah." Xie Ning relied on Zhou Jinnian, and especially liked to listen to Zhou Jinnian's great principles. He hadn't been to a private school for a day, and everything he learned and heard was Zhou Jinnian.

"By the way, Jiannian." Xie Ning raised his head again, "Brother Yu runs more and more steadily. In case of a bump one day, his physique will be exposed."

"I have been thinking about this recently." Zhou Jinnian looked down at his son who was sleeping soundly in his arms.

Brother Yu was like a father when he was born, and Xie Ning when he was a baby, and when he was two and a half years old, he was completely like his father Zhou Jinnian.

It's just that I fell asleep now, and the red face looked like Xie Ning asleep, sweet and charming.

"It's time to tell Afather and Daddy." Zhou Jinnian said, looking up at Xie Ning.

Shainin snorted, "Listen to you."

After dinner in the evening, other people were sent to rest. Zhou Jinnian and the two elders talked about it.

He only said that Brother Yu was born like this, which should be related to Xie Ning's ‘strange poison’ in his early years, and did not mention Xie Ning’s physique.

On Wednesday, Feng and Lin Jin were stunned. The latter immediately laughed, "There is such a good thing? Isn't my grandson invulnerable?"

Fengyi heard it on Wednesday, and said, "Brother Yu is naturally good at water. It turned out to be because of this."

Zhou Jinnian nodded. In the past few years, the two fathers have gained insight and confidence in their hearts, so they have a good receptive ability.

However, he explained in detail, "Being guilty of the crime, and someday, this carp blood will be drained from his body, it is better to hide it."

"That must be." Brother Yu was his grandson of Wednesday Feng, "Looking at the whole Nan Yu, no one hurt my grandson."

"Don't worry, Dad will protect Brother Yu." Lin Jin nodded repeatedly and added: "There is also Ning Lang."

To confess that the matter was not disturbed, Zhou Jinnian got up and went back to the room. Brother Yu slept for an hour at dusk, and he was very energetic now.

When Zhou Jinnian took off his shirt and lay down, he stepped on Zhou Jinnian and crawled on Xie Nian.

"Haha... Look at him in Jinnian." Xie Ning Xiaoyu's brother looked clumsy.

Zhou Ji hummed young, "I will clean up a room for him tomorrow, and he should live by himself."

"Huh?" Xie Ning hurriedly caught the elder Yu who had crawled over, "He is not yet three years old."

Zhou Jinnian stretched out his hand and hooked his son's small chin, but he said to Xie Ning, "It will delay us to give him a sister."

Zhou Jinnian said that the tone was serious, and the voice was deep but clear in the dark, like the sound of a piano.

Xie Ning was surprised to see Zhou Jinnian. Zhou Jinnian's eyes looked like fire, and he looked at him with a smile on his lips.

"Sister!" Brother Yu rushed to Zhou Jinnian who was lying on his side, shouting his sister.

"Puff..." Xie Ning laughed, and touched Zhou Jinnian's waist. "That's not allowed to drive him to live in another house. Let the stone go to make a small bed tomorrow."

Zhou Jinnian stretched out his finger and scratched the palm of Xie Ning's palm. The implied meaning was obvious, and he refused directly.

"Stop talking!" Xie Ning went to cover his mouth, one is shy, the other is emotional.

Brother Yu grabbed his feet and murmured, "Don't talk silly..."

"Hahahaha..." Xie Ning smiled softly, lying on Zhou Jinnian.

Zhou Jinnian also snorted a few times and rubbed Brother Yu's head. When my son loves to be an adult, he often makes some jokes and brings joy and laughter to the whole family.

In the middle of the night, the room of a family of three was lively and lively. The old couple heard the laughter of their son's room from a distance, and felt more happy in their hearts.

Brother Yu couldn't sleep, so he slipped up and down on the two fathers, making trouble.

Zhou Jinnian was lying on his stomach, Brother Yu climbed onto his back, stepped on his father's back, and consumed energy.

Xie Ning was also lying on his stomach. The husband and wife turned their heads to the face, whispering...

...

In May, as soon as Nanyu County became hot, Wu Dao was dismissed from his post by an edict.

Dismissal means that after the official resignation, the previous fame and fame are gone. Wu Dao has been promoted to prefect for more than ten years. In his old age, he was confused, caused an unjust case, ruined his official career, and ruined the rest of his life.

From this point of view, this Qu Yingying is a strange woman, Zhou Jinnian secretly thought.

Emperor Qing Yuan was born as a military commander, established the Qing dynasty after pacifying the war, and in just thirty years, he encouraged farming and economic development. Such a great man, after experiencing so much and seeing so much, can still hold Qu Yingying, who is at a young age, in the palm of his hand at the age of sixty...

If Qu Yingying was just a beautiful woman, Zhou Jinnian would not believe it. However, the unjust case has been overturned, and Zhou Jinnian decided not to pay attention to the matter anymore.

...

Planting rice seedlings in the south in May, this month is a busy day for spring planting and farming. Food is the foundation of the people. Zhou Jinnian was busy patrolling the fields and thoroughly understood the people's livelihood difficulties, so that he could solve them.

At this time, Zhou Jinnian was processing official documents at the county government office. After finishing the last chapter, he cleaned his hands and headed to the stables. He had planned to go to the countryside to patrol the fields.

There is an open space in front of the stable. Brother Yu was hugged by the stone and rode on the horse. He leaned on the stone softly, his small paws pulled on the reins, and his big eyes were a little bewildered.

The stone controls the horse, allowing the horse to wander around the dojo.

Seeing his father coming, Brother Yu loosened the reins, stretched out his hand towards Zhou Jinnian, and yelled, "Father, hug!"

When he was two and a half years old, he was taught to be called Father A.

When Zhou Jinnian approached, he wanted to hug him off the horse. He kicked his two calves and pulled the rein to keep his hands together, "Riding a horse..."

It turned out that I wanted Zhou Jinnian to hug him on a horse, and Zhou Jinnian hugged him down, his movements were gentle and his words were merciless, "My horse will only take your dad."

Shishi rolled over and got off the horse, snickering inwardly, and the young man would also make fun of the little boy.

"Ah!" Brother Yu was unwilling, sitting on his father's arms, pulling the reins and not letting go, looking at his father pitifully, and said with a small mouth, "Father, I'm afraid..."

"What are you afraid of?" Although Zhou Jinnian didn't smile, his eyes were gentle.

"I want to ride a horse." Brother Yu loosened the rein, holding Zhou Jinnian's face with two small claws.

Xie Ning often does this action in front of him, and the little man can imitate it.

It turned out that the son was not afraid, but wanted to act like a baby.

"Come back and take you to ride." Zhou Jinnian hugged him and planned to send it to Fulang himself.

The couple of Zhou Laosan went to Fucheng to set up a new restaurant, so Zhou Jinnian helped Xie Ning share the hardship of taking his son. Brother Yu followed him all morning, and it was just now that he went out to ride a horse.

Brother Yu grabbed his father's shoulders and looked at the maroon horse with big eyes reluctantly. This is much more fun than the little wooden horse in his yard.

The weather was hot and the children were very angry. Brother Yu only wore a linen-gray cloth gown with a satin-like girdle. The color was not very beautiful, but it would be hard to see if it was dirty.

Brother Yu pouted and grabbed his father's shirt with his small claws. The other person is young. As long as the adult decides, he will be picked up and put here and there.

Zhou Jinnian carried his son back to the inner courtyard. Xie Ning wore a linen shirt of the same color as his son, and sat in the courtyard with Luhe. When he saw her husband and son, she immediately smiled.

Luhe picked up the dirty bucket and left the yard.

Brother Yu touched his foot, and Dududu ran to look for it, and it was almost a year old, as if he had the posture of an adult watchdog.

Xie Ning looked at Zhou Jinnian with a small face, "Are you going out?"

"Yeah." Zhou Jinnian was condescending, reaching out his hand to caress Xie Ning's face, his skin was as thin as fat, and his fingertips flicked when he touched it.

"It's rainy in April and May, I'll go to see the crops."

"Well, let's go." Xie Ning pursed his mouth, squinted his eyes and placed his chin on Zhou Jinnian's abdominal muscles, looking at her husband with a small face.

Speaking to make people busy, but the action is sticky. At this moment, he directly rubbed his face against Zhou Jinnian's waist. His appearance of attachment made Zhou Jinnian unable to move.

Zhou Jinnian's Adam's apple moved slightly, palms covering Xie Ning's neck, and asked softly: "Are you going?"

Xie Ning is still buried at Zhou Jinnian’s waist, but instead he put his forehead against Zhou Jinnian’s abdomen, tilting his head to stare at Brother Yu under the eaves. After becoming a father, his son must be within his sight. .

Brother Yu sat on the threshold obediently, playing with the tangram in his hand, pouting his mouth and playing very seriously, lying on his feet, sticking out his tongue to dissipate heat.

"If I go, your son will also go, and take him with a carriage, which will delay things." Xie Ning tugged at the corner of his mouth and disliked his precious son.

Tired and crooked enough, he took the initiative to sit up straight, "Go, come back earlier."

Zhou Jinnian bent down and pressed a kiss on his forehead. After he straightened his waistband, he really left. If he delayed, it was getting dark when he came back, and Xie Ning was worried.

Zhou Jinnian left the county office all the way, and Luhe was chatting with his brother Shishi with the empty bucket. He saluted him when he saw him, and took the bucket back to the inner courtyard to Xie Ning's helper.

Zhou Jinnian turned on his horse, and another horse was on the stone.

Xie Ning took a small dustpan to the stove. Brother Yu quickly put down the jigsaw puzzle, stepped on his short legs to keep up, and walked up to the door of the stove.

The little master ran away, and Zhuo Zhuo followed him. A little man and a dog changed places, and their posture remained the same.

Xie Ning kneaded the glutinous rice noodles, used steamed red bean cubes as fillings, and wrapped the glutinous rice dumplings and steamed them in a basket.

Luhe sat behind the stove and watched the fire. After waiting for it to be cooked, Xie Ning soaked a few dried soft fish and planned to cook it at night.

After finishing her work, Xie Ning wiped her hands and went to sit down next to her son at the door.

When Brother Yu saw that Dad had achieved Kung Fu, he stood up and squeezed into Xie Ning's arms and asked Xie Ning to hug the small body he delivered to the door, so that he was comfortable.

"Is it hot?" Xie Ning asked, leaning his hand into Brother Yu's back, the tentacles were dry, and when it was hot, Brother Yu would not sweat.

Brother Yu pointed his head and mumbled, "Hot!"

Raising his head, he acted like a baby with dad, "Daddy, do I swim in the water?"

Xie Ning laughed, "Daddy is steaming dumplings for you, you can't eat them if you want to swim."

Brother Yu turned around, leaning against Xie Ning, and he couldn't stand well next to Daddy's. With two small hands on Daddy's knees, he weakened his two short legs and supported his whole body with both hands.

Xie Ning stroked the lanugo that exploded on his forehead, letting him rely on himself.

In a quiet afternoon, Brother Yu's little brain jumped in thought, pointing to the courtyard door, and his little mouth made a "toot toot..." sound.

"Well, Xiu Niang is about to weave silk." Xie Ning, the dad, understands what Brother Yu wants to say.

In Nanyu County, it was the sericulture season. The silkworm mothers in the county raised sericulture together. A few days ago, the two husbands had a good time, and brother Yu walked the street and observed for a long time.

Zhou Jinnian said a lot of things that Brother Yu didn't remember, but he remembered the sound of ‘Tuk Tuk Tuk’ made by stepping on the machine.

"Do you remember the poems taught by your father?" Xie Ning asked, looking down at Brother Yu's fleshy cheeks.

"White horse..." Brother Yu replied with his head held high, and he rode a horse in the morning.

"Well, what else?"

"White Horse." Brother Yu clicked his mouth twice, and couldn't say more.

Xie Ning picked him up and sat on his lap, looked at him and said, "The spring breeze, white horse and purple silk rein, is just when the silkworm mother has not picked mulberries."

Brother Yu pouted his mouth and imitated, "Chun Baking White Horse..."

Xie Ning smiled and his shoulders trembled.

Brother Yu leaned softly into his arms, squinted his eyes and smiled, "Hmm..."

Xie Ning showed off the poems he had learned from his husband and read it word by word to Brother Yu. Of course, Brother Yu could not understand, but he just liked to listen to his father talking to him.

With a two-and-a-half-year-old milk doll, what topics can you have in common? It's just an adult who asks for guidance.

After staying with Brother Yu for a while, the red bean and glutinous rice ball was also steamed, Xie Ning poked one with chopsticks, warmed it, and handed it to his son who was sitting on the threshold.

Brother Yu raised his small hand, and a small group of people sat alone obediently, gnawing glutinous rice balls, and stood up immediately, dangling their tails and staring at the little master.

The glutinous rice is not easy to digest, so I only asked Brother Yu to eat one, put him in the yard and run after you to play for a while, and then Xie Ning went to hug him and coax him to take a nap.

Brother Yu lay on Daddy's arms, one small arm hanging down softly, and the other hanging into Daddy's placket. He closed his eyes and opened it soon.

"Go to sleep." Xie Ning patted him on the back.

Brother Yu closed his eyes again, and his claws made a dull ‘Da Da’ sound on the wooden floor. He opened his eyes again and poked his head to look at Su.

Xie Ning rubbed his feet and taught him: "Get down, you also sleep."

Nao Nao is a clever native dog, immediately lying down, lying on his side and pretending to sleep.

Brother Yu retracted again, with his little head leaning against his father's chest, the little chubby mouth pursed with his face, he closed his eyes again, and he was really asleep now.

Xie Ning put him on the small bed in the main room, and changed Luhe to guard him. Luhe also consciously touched the fan to send wind to the sleeping brother Yu.

Xie Ning returned to the stove, and there was oil left in the fried dough sticks in the morning, and now he plans to fry the squid dry. Put the drained squid into a frying pan, fry them, and brush them with his homemade hot sauce.

Xie Ning took a bite and chewed slowly, always feeling that the dried squid was less tender. So the rest of him made the batter again, and the dried squid wrapped in the batter was fried. The surface was crispy, the meat was tender and chewy.

The dried squid is especially delicious when made into snacks. In order not to steal the limelight of the main course grilled fish, he plans to skewer with a stick and sell it on skewer.

Seaside fishermen also call squid as soft fish, so it is called deep-fried soft fish.

After the fried soft fish was on the table, they sold very well. Soon there were stalls specializing in fried soft fish and fried shrimp on Nanyu Street.

This snack can be used by the people as a job, and Xie Ning is also very supportive. So he served as a small vendor to help him promote the snack. He contacted Zhang Hai to buy dried soft fish on a large scale and sold it to Jianzhou Mansion.

He contacted the caravan that was unemployed because of the decline of the Jiangnan section of tea, and opened the Xieji Trade Road.

After the first batch of dried soft fish and dried shrimps were passed to other states, Xie Ning harvested a large sum of silver. It was already summer and July.

In July of the forty-first year of Qingyuan, Zhou Jinnian received a letter from the official department, restricting him to the post of Jianzhou prefect in September of the same year.

From then on, the Zhou family was a big family with a mansion. It was no longer Zhou Yuan or Zhou Mansion. They moved into the Jianzhou Mansion, and the door plaque was engraved with the word'Zhou Mansion'.

The government office is much more atmospheric than the county government office. There is a small pond in the southwest of the front yard against the wall. Brother Yu is holding a small cucumber and gnawing at him, followed by two servants.

Now the mansion is big, and in the inner courtyard of the mansion, safety is the safest, but it takes time to clean up, so eight more servants are taken, including those who burn the laundry.

A little maid wearing a green sarong followed the little master not too far away, and looked around. The house was still being cleaned up and everyone was busy.

She leaned close to the little brother standing next to her, and whispered: "Autumn leaves, how come you were assigned here too?"

"Autumn" is the word of the old lady's Wednesday Feng Ci, because Zhou Ji's reign is in autumn, and promotion is also in autumn.

"Sister Luhe pointed out, I can only listen." Qiuye still looked at the little master in front of her with a pair of eyes.

Brother Yu walked to the edge of the pool, squatted down to a small ball, the satin on the clothes was spread all over the floor, his little chubby hand held the small cucumber that he gnawed away and stretched into the water, scaring the carp in the pool. Fleeing around with his tail.

The little maid’s name is Qiuhua. She curled her lips and said in a strange manner: "You are so handsome. No wonder the big girl pointed here. It’s a pity. From now on, you won’t be able to get into the master’s eyes anymore. ."

Qiu Ye glanced at Qiu Hua in surprise, and then the heroic and handsome face of Master Zhou Jinnian appeared before her eyes. Qiu Ye squeezed her left index finger with her right hand and smiled a little far-fetched.

Yes, I have never heard of the servants serving by the father's son Na son as concubines. When Piansheng entered the Zhou Mansion, the master didn't even look at it, so he asked Master Ning to assign them.

When Brother Yu saw that the carp didn't eat cucumbers and swam far away with his tail, he was anxious that both of his small arms were in the water, and his entire sleeves were wet.

Qiuhua didn't reply when she saw the people, she rolled her eyes and went to see the little master. Who knew it would be okay not to look at it, she was shocked when she saw it!

"Come on! Master fell into the water!" Qiuhua carried her skirt and ran in as she shouted.

Xie Ning watched in the study. Lin Jin kept the family's money. Besides, the most precious thing was the books. He had to stare at them, so that they could not be rudely damaged. The study was far away from the pond and didn't hear it.

Luhe pointed at the people who cleaned the hall. The first person to hear the sound ran towards the pond.

Brother Yu was soaking in the clear carp pond, with his two short legs kicking flexibly, chasing the carp in the pond and swimming around, as if a small fatty fish got water.

Qiuye doesn't know how to water, so he stupidly stood on the edge of the pond and shouted at Brother Yu: "Master, come back soon, come back soon, Master..."

Luhe watched Brother Yu grow up. In Nanyu, he often followed Xie Ning to swim with Brother Yu, but when the baby went into the water, he always had to stare at him.

Luhe ran over, clapped his hands and summoned, "Brother Yu, swim back quickly."

Brother Yu could still hear her words. Little Wawa peeped her head out of the water with her big eyes open, pouting her mouth, spitting out water, and whispering: "Fish..."

"Master Nian is here! Come here soon..." Luhe scared him, Zhou Jinnian was busy in the government office.

Brother Yu swims closer to her, but still doesn't want to go ashore.

Luhe stepped directly into the gravel bank of the pond and picked up Brother Yu. Brother Yu was covered with water in his clothes, bulging, and after hanging in the air, the water on his body splashed down like a leaking little boy. Pufferfish.

In this way, Luhe held Brother Yu back to the room to change clothes. Xie Ning rushed to receive the news and saw his son sitting on the bed with his little naked body.

Brother Yu knelt up and climbed two steps before shouting to Xie Ning: "Daddy!"

Luhe turned over Brother Yu's clothes and came out. Xie Ning took it and said to Luhe, "The skirts are all wet. Go change your clothes and go to the study to look at them."

"Yes." Luhe stepped on the soaked cloth shoes and walked out of Brother Yu's room, but did not go to his own room.

Luhe just wore a wet skirt, called Qiuhua Qiuye to her, pointed at the two of them and said, "It seems that you two can't bear to be idle."

Qiuhua is the most talkative, she flattened her mouth and said aggrieved, "This blink of an eye, sister Luhe, I really didn't move my eyes..."

Qiuye is a boring gourd, lowered his head and dared not speak.

Luhe chuckled lightly, "I originally pointed out you two to take care of the young master, just because of your skin looks, gave a chance, you didn't want to grasp it, then you are up to you. I will sell both of you tomorrow. Whether you can enter the mansion as servants in the future depends on your good fortune."

"Sister Luhe, I was wrong! I was wrong! Sister let me go this time." Qiuhua was terrified, how easy is this mansion gate to enter! After leaving the Zhou Mansion and entering a house, then this life really has nothing to do with wealth and glory.

"The appearance was given by your parents. If you don't work hard and just want to rely on your face, that's your life." After Luhe said this, he turned around and went back to his house to change clothes.

The author has something to say: "The spring breeze, white horse and purple silk rein, coincides with the silkworm mother not picking the mulberry." Quoting from "Investment", author Xu Hun.
