Man Bao said earnestly and earnestly: "You are weak, why don't you wear a hat when you go out?"
Yin Ru said, "I never stay outside for a long time in this kind of weather."
In the past, Yin or not to mention going out to play in the summer, even if he walked from one courtyard to another, the servants would stop him and make him wait for the heat to dissipate before going out, and he mostly walked under the corridor, and The servants hold umbrellas and will never go out in the sun.
Well, everyone exchanged information that they didn't know about each other, and it was considered mutual exchange.
However, the items cannot be exchanged for each other. When the time is almost up, the boatmen will shake the boat back.
The guy waiting on the shore stepped forward to pack the food box and paid for the meal along the way.
Everyone is also very straightforward. According to the head, each person pays a share, and then divides the boat fare equally, and then they have to go their own way.
Man Bao and the others put on the bamboo hats, looked at Lu Xiaofo and the others who were blushing after a while, and said, "Next time you go out, you should still wear the bamboo hats, or you can wear a veiled hat."
Lu Xiaofo took a look at the bamboo hats on their heads, then at the clothes that didn't match the hats, and decided it's better not to go out.
Bai Shan and the others shook hands and left, while Lu Xiaofo and the others turned around and went to the Huguo Temple to inquire about news. Before leaving, the two sides agreed to meet each other in the next ten days to see if it was better to choose Huguo Temple or Xuandu Temple.
Bai Shan responded, and when he got home, he talked to his grandmother about it, and asked her to send someone to Xuandu Temple to inquire.
He said: "Originally, I thought it would be enough to burn some paper money at home for sacrifices on Ghost Festival as in previous years, but Lu Xiaofo and the others who are alone in the capital want to light the eternal lanterns for the ancestors. Our whole family is here, so we should It’s better to do it more grandly.”
Mrs. Liu thought for a while and said, "Alright, I'll send someone to inquire. Now that I've gone to Xuandu Temple, I'll go to Huguo Temple again."
She smiled and said: "You children have tender skins. Those Zhixing monks and Taoists who know and practice can't fool you. Don't think that monks don't tell lies. When monks tell lies, ordinary people can't compare."
After thinking about the daily skills that Dao and Daoxu had to learn, Bai Shan nodded approvingly.
Mrs. Liu then asked about Man Bao's salary, and asked with a smile, "Is her post ready?"
Bai Shan paused, scratched his head and said, "She hasn't done it, and her brothers and sisters-in-law don't know how to do it, either? The previous posts were all written for her by the husband himself."
Mrs. Liu laughed and said: "The posts sent to the household department must be kept on file, and those who go to receive salaries will have to check the seals in the future, so posting posts should not be shabby."
She reached out from the case and took two gold-sprinkling posts and handed them to Bai Shan, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuang wrote these two posts himself, just ask Man Bao to stamp his own seal."
Bai Shan opened it and saw that the words inside were neat and powerful, and the paper used was high-quality hard paper, some of which were shiny, probably because of copper foil sprinkled on them.
Bai Shan accepted the post and asked, "Grandma, when I get my salary..."
Mrs. Liu said cheerfully, "I'll make you a copy as it is."
Only then was Bai Shan satisfied, and took the post to find Man Bao.
Man Bao was also very pleasantly surprised when he saw the post, and touched it for a while reluctantly, "Why did you submit such a good post?"
Bai Shandao: "This is a matter of face. Since grandma made it for you, then you should hand it in. If you don't need to keep the post, it will be ashes."
Man Bao thought so too, but he was still very reluctant to see such an exquisite post.
She was still reluctant, but Zhou Wulang and the others were even more reluctant after seeing it, "Is this glittering gold leaf?"
"The cover is, and the inside is copper."
Zhou Wulang clicked his tongue, "This post must be very expensive. Since it is handed in as a token, shouldn't any post be fine? Why do you want to make it so good?"
Fang also stretched out her hand to touch it lightly, and said softly, "Madam Liu is too polite."
But he still said: "But since I have done it, I have to use it. This is also for my sister's face. I can't use ordinary posts when my sister becomes a high-ranking official. I will be embarrassed to meet my colleagues in the future."
Man Bao said: "I won't be embarrassed, being an official depends on ability."
"That's true, but you can't let people underestimate my sister," Fang said, "It's fine if you don't have one. Now that you have it, you still have to save face."
Man Bao nodded.
Fang asked, "Don't you want to get a seal? Where's the seal?"
Man Bao then dug out his private seal and official seal, stamped one on the left and the other on the right, and stamped the same on both posts, and then handed one of the posts to Zhou Lijun, saying: "They all have monthly salaries, what will happen to them?" I'm probably still in the palace, so remember to collect your salary every month from now on."
Zhou Lijun took the post and nodded.
Man Bao took the other one, and planned to take it into the palace the next day, and go to the household department to register on the third day of junior high school.
At this time, Liu Huan, who had just returned home, happened to meet Liu Shangshu coming back from drinking tea with others, and he was frowning, not knowing what he was thinking.
He remembered Zhou Man's advice, and immediately chased after him to salute, "Grandfather, you are back."
Liu Shangshu turned his head to look at his little grandson, and asked with a hum, "Are you back too?"
But without waiting for Liu Huan's answer, he continued to go to the study with his hands behind his back.
Liu Huan followed him step by step, "Grandfather, I have something to tell you."
Liu Shangshu managed to pull out a bit of his mind, hummed perfunctorily and said, "Go ahead."
"Grandfather, the day after Zhou Man will go to the Ministry of Households to deliver posts. Can you send someone to wait for her in the afternoon? She is afraid that she will be late when she comes from the Daming Palace, and the people from your Ministry of Households are about to go to the government office."
Liu Shangshu's mind was only half-returned, and he asked, "What post did she send to the Ministry of Accounts?"
"It's the post about receiving the salary. She should receive the salary this month."
Liu Shangshu, the head of the Ministry of Finance, how would he pay attention to the salary of a fifth-rank and sixth-rank official
He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Just for this?"
Liu Huan looked at his grandfather's black face, and nodded inexplicably, "Yes, it would be good for grandfather to tell the uncles down there, right?"
Liu Shangshu couldn't help reaching out and patting him on the head, "Do I need to order this kind of thing? Not the day after tomorrow, won't you wait another day? You won't die if you receive your salary a few days later, the relief money and food in Shengzhou It will be a few days later to give it out."
Liu Huan, who suffered from the fire of innocence: ...
Tears welled up in Liu Huan's eyes, he turned around and ran away, "I want to tell grandma, grandpa, you are angry at me with business..."
Liu Shangshu stretched out his hand to grab him, but the boy ran away with a swipe, very nimble.
Liu Shangshu: ...
On the third day of junior high school, Liu Shangshu wandered around the household department, then grabbed a clerk casually, and said to him: "You pay attention today, Zhou Man from Chongwen Museum and Imperial Hospital came to hand in the post and seal. File her posts and seals, don't miss out on the salary."
The clerk quickly responded respectfully, thinking in his heart that Zhou Man was really favored this week, and even had to specifically ask such a small matter as their minister.
