At the county government office, Jiang Kangning grabbed Wang Shijing in a gaffe: "Brother Xi has recovered?!"
Wang Shijing said: "Yes, Brother Xi has recovered. Brother, sit down, and I will tell you carefully."
Jiang Kangning couldn't believe what he heard. Wang Shijing sat him down and told Jiankangning in detail what happened yesterday. Hearing Jiang Moxi comforting the crying girl, the corners of Jiang Kangning's eyes became moist. Hearing Jiang Moxi hitting the Song family with a slingshot, Jiang Kangning's eyes widened. Is that Brother Xi? ! Hearing that Jiang Moxi knew what happened to him and said that he was a fool, Jiang Kangning felt distressed and relieved. Hearing Jiang Moxi say that Mrs. Wu is an idiot, Jiang Kangning spit out.
When Wang Shijing finished speaking, Jiang Kangning said excitedly: "Ishii, brother, thank you so much. Without you, Brother Xi would not be able to recover at all. You and Yun'an are the benefactors of the family of the eldest brother! The Song family, don't worry, brother I won't let them trouble you again."
"Brother, how can we say 'benefactor' between you and me. If it weren't for your help back then, Yunan and I would not have the life we have now, nor would we be father's adopted son. We are a family now, I don’t say whether I am grateful or not. As for the Song family, I have the contract and the IOU, so I forgive them for not daring to come to me again. Brother, you are the head of a county, so you don’t need to come forward for such a trivial matter.” Wang Shijing took Take out the letter Shao Yunan wrote to Jiang Kangchen, and pass it over, "Yunan wrote a letter to Brother Kang Chen, Brother Xi has recovered, this good news - must tell Brother Kang Chen."
Jiang Kangning accepted the letter with burning eyes. What happened to Jiang Moxi was a pain in his heart and that of his brother. Jiang Moxi's recovery meant that for him and his brother, especially his brother, the suffering had been reduced by at least half. Jiang Kangning took a few deep breaths and said, "Brother is not in the capital now, the Queen has sent him to Huxingguan, and it will take more than two months to return to Beijing."
When Wang Shijing heard that he was going to "Tiger Pass", his eyes were full of doubts. Jiang Kangning nodded and said, "That's what you guessed." Wang Shijing nodded and said, "Then when Big Brother Kang Chen comes back and knows that Brother Xi has recovered, he will definitely hurry over here."
"That-definite!" Jiang Kangning wanted to rush to Xiushui Village now. Keeping in mind that he is the county magistrate, he can't just leave, Jiang Kangning said: "I'll go there after class in the afternoon, and pick up Brother Qing by the way."
Wang Shijing said: "I have to go back later, tea picking is about to begin, so don't delay."
==================================================== ====================================================
When Wang Qing was leaving school, he was surprised to see his uncle waiting for him at the door. Not seeing the surprised and nervous expressions of Zou Wenzhe and Guo Yu, Wang Qing ran over with his schoolbag on his back and called, "Uncle."
"Brother Qing." Jiang Kangning, who took off his official uniform and dressed in casual clothes, stepped forward, "Uncle is going to your house, so I will pick you up and go home together."
Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo stepped forward to salute: "Master County Magistrate."
When the two shouted, the students who knew Jiang Kangning's identity were stunned. What? ! Wang Qing is the county magistrate's nephew? !
Jiang Kangning nodded slightly to Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo, and said, "Brother Qing will go home in my carriage, and Ding Sen will take you home."
"yes."
Jiang Kangning led Wang Qing to his carriage, carried him into the carriage, and he got into the carriage himself. Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo waited for the carriage to drive before getting into the carriage.
"Wang Yan! Zhao Congbo!" Wang Yan and Zhao Congbo's classmates shouted to stop them, "Wang Qing is the county magistrate's nephew?"
Wang Yan glanced at Zhao Congbo, and Zhao Congbo replied steadily: "Yes. Brother Qing's father and the county magistrate are righteous brothers."
"Ah! Why didn't you say that!"
Zhao Congbo said: "Brother Qing doesn't like publicity."
Wang Yan smiled and said, "Don't you know?"
"oops!"
Guo Yu watched the carriage go away, feeling inexplicably lost. Zou Wenzhe also pouted and said, "Wang Qing is too mean. We should be his friends. He didn't even tell us that he is the magistrate's nephew."
Guo Yu withdrew his gaze and said, "Let's go home." He walked very quickly to his carriage.
"Hey! Guo Yu!" Zou Wenzhe chased after him, "Aren't you angry?"
"What are you angry about?" Guo Yu lowered his head and got into his carriage. Zou Xiaopang shouted from outside the carriage, "He doesn't even consider us friends! You're not angry, I'm angry!"
In the car, Guo Yu was actually very disappointed. He thought they were friends.
Wang Qing would never think of what his uncle's arrival would bring to his classmates, Jiang Kangning would not think about such things at all, and there is no need to shy away from the fact that Wang Qing is his nephew. After receiving Wang Qing, Jiang Kangning couldn't wait to ask Wang Qing to tell him about Jiang Moxi's situation again. Although he had already heard it from Wang Shijing, Jiang Kangning couldn't restrain his emotions when he heard it from Wang Qing again.
When the car arrived at Xiushui Village, Jiang Kangning got out of the carriage as soon as it stopped at the gate of the palace. Zheng Weishi opened the door. Jiang Kangning opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Brother Xi?"
Zheng Weishi said: "The young master may be in the backyard. Every day at this time, the young master and miss are watching the rabbits in the backyard."
Jiang Kangning picked up his feet and walked to the backyard, while Wang Qing asked, "Have my father and little father returned?"
"The master hasn't come back yet, the little master is back, he should be in the kitchen."
"good."
Wang Qing went to the kitchen to find daddy and told daddy that uncle was coming. Judging by the uncle's appearance, I'm afraid he won't be able to find the younger dad first. Shao Yun'an was talking to Guo Zimu about the dim sum shop in the kitchen. In three days, Yunlong Dim Sum House, Yunlong Baoju and Yunlongfang Restaurant will open at the same time. Shao Yun'an will not show up, but Wang Shijing, as the head of the family, will show up at that time. The person in charge of the three stores is Shopkeeper Xu, and the shopkeeper of each store is arranged by Shopkeeper Xu. Shopkeeper Xu and Shopkeeper Zeng of these three stores have paid for their shares.
Seeing Wang Qing and knowing that the eldest brother is coming, Shao Yunan took Wang Qing to look for the eldest brother, and said with a smile: "Your uncle is definitely not in the mood to sit down today."
Wang Qing nodded and said with a smile, "Uncle—I've been asking about my elder brother all along the way."
When the two came to the animal barn, they saw Jiang Kangning holding Jiang Moxi, his eyes were red, Jiang Moxi looked at his uncle expressionlessly, but his arms were wrapped around his uncle's neck.
"Brother/uncle."
Jiang Kangning looked over and couldn't wait to say: "Yun'an! Brother Xi called me uncle just now! He called me uncle!"
Shao Yun'an walked over and said, "Brother Xi has recovered, congratulations."
"No no, this is all thanks to you and Ishii, if it weren't for you..."
Shao Yun'an raised his hand to stop Jiang Kangning's thanks, and said, "Brother, we are a family, do you want to see me?"
Jiang Kangning smiled.
Shao Yun'an said to Jiang Moxi: "Brother Xi, Uncle Guo's dim sum shop opens tomorrow, you and Nizi and Brother Qing go to see if there is any favorite food for you, and ask Uncle Guo to make more."
When Jiang Moxi heard it, he immediately struggled to get down, Jiang Kangning put him down with great joy (surprise), and his eyes were red again. Jiang Moxi, who went to the ground, grabbed Nizi and Brother Qing and ran outside. Seeing the three children running away without a trace, Jiang Kangning looked away and wiped the corners of his eyes.
"I told you a joke."
Shao Yun'an: "Brother, you can rest assured now. Brother Xi may not like to talk, but his intelligence is absolutely fine, and he may even be smarter than many children. You see, he even knows that grandma is an idiot." He also knows his father It's stupid. But it's not good for Shao Yun'an to say this in front of Jiang Kangning, Jiang Kangning is extremely complaining about his former "brother-in-law".
Jiang Kangning laughed out loud, and then said with a long sigh of relief: "Brother can finally feel at ease and don't have to blame himself."
Shao Yun'an asked, "When will Big Brother Kang Chen come over?"
Jiang Kangning said regretfully: "Brother was sent by the queen to Huxing Pass to give the 3,500 taels of gold you donated on behalf of the young general. The elder brother said that the queen's intention was to let him go out of Beijing for a while, and stay away from the capital for a while— some trouble."
"trouble?"
Jiang Kangning sneered, and said, "The Wu family is looking for elder brother."
"Huh?" Shao Yun'an was stunned for half a second, and immediately realized, "This is to see that the eldest brother has become a popular person beside the queen, do you regret it?"
Jiang Kangning said: "It's not just that simple." Jiang Kangning told Shao Yunan in detail about the current situation of Duke Anguo's mansion and how Hengyuanhou and Duke Anguo were beaten in the face on the day the emperor held a banquet. Shao Yun'an already knew something about that day from the letter Eunuch An gave him, but it was not as detailed as what Jiang Kangning said.
Shao Yun'an nodded: "An Guo Gongfu is not welcomed by the emperor, and wants to use the relationship between brother Kang Chen and the queen to improve the relationship with the emperor?"
Jiang Kangning said: "If it weren't for the emperor's unstable foundation at that time, the Anguo government would have disappeared long ago."
Shao Yunan said: "Then they will regret it even more in the future. Brother Xi is a young genius. It seems that the queen also values brother Kang Chen, otherwise she would not let him go out of Beijing at this time to avoid trouble. Anyway, the emperor and the king In the end, we will hug these two great gods tightly."
Jiang Kangning laughed and had to remind again: "Don't say that outside."
"Don't worry."
Jiang Moxi recovered, and Jiang Kangning was in a good mood. He won't go back to the county magistrate's mansion at night, so he will just stay here overnight, and the people from the county government will come to pick him up tomorrow morning.
Jiang Moxi didn't talk much, and his words were rash, but even if he was like this all his life, it was enough for those who loved him. In order to celebrate Jiang Moxi's recovery, Shao Yun'an and Guo Zimu made a big meal at night. Shao Yun'an also fried lamb chops with Western cooking methods. Although the ingredients were not complete, several people who ate Western-style lamb chops for the first time said it was delicious. Especially Wang Qing and Jiang Moxi, who love to eat, Shao Yunan directly cut his piece in half and gave it to the two children.
"Daddy, can this be my lunch box the day after tomorrow?" Wang Qing asked.
Jiang Moxi looked straight at Uncle An. Shao Yun'an laughed: "No problem, isn't it just lamb chops. If my dad can get beef, I can fry steak for you, it will be more delicious."
Jiang Moxi: "Steak!"
Shao Yunan choked on himself with a mouthful of saliva. Guo Zimu hurriedly patted Shaoyun'an on the back, and Jiang Kangning deliberately said seriously: "You can't kill this cow at will, it's against the law."
Jiang Moxi: "Steak!"
Jiang Kangning patted his nephew's head dumbfoundingly: "Brother Xi, I have strict laws and regulations, and you are not allowed to kill cattle at will. Only when a cow dies can you eat beef."
"That can't be eaten." Shao Yun'an immediately said: "Who knows what disease the dead cow has. The reason why the cow can't be killed is because the cow is a production tool for the cow and needs to be plowed. Then we can breed beef cattle specially for eating. gone."
Jiang Moxi and Wang Qing's eyes immediately brightened up, but Jiang Kangning was very helpless: "There is no such thing as beef cattle, they are all used to cultivate the land."
Shao Yunan raised his index finger and shook: "Wrong, wrong. There are many types of cattle. Farm cattle that cultivate land, dairy cows that produce milk, and beef cattle that eat meat should all be developed in the future. In this way, we have cattle to help plow the land, and Milk strengthens the body, and beef strengthens the body and satisfies the appetite, which is right."
Jiang Kangning smiled: "Do you want to raise cattle again?"
Shao Yunan shook his head violently: "I don't think so. Brother, you are the county magistrate, you should vigorously develop the breeding industry." A figure suddenly appeared in his head, and Shao Yunan immediately said: "Brother, Wang Wenhe's grandson likes the profession of veterinarian very much." In order to become a veterinarian, he is willing to work as a servant in a veterinary clinic just to learn skills. I have seen this child, he is quite responsible, and he can be trained in the breeding industry. Brother, this time I made money selling tea, Do you want to consider developing—the farming industry in Yongxiu County? Chicken, duck, fish, and cattle, all of these can be developed. At that time, we want to eat fish and eat beef, and we don’t need to worry about breaking the law.”
Jiang Moxi: "Steak!"
"Pfft!" Shao Yun'an laughed loudly, "Brother, for Brother Xi's steak, you also have to raise cattle."
Jiang Kangning hugged Jiang Moxi on his lap, and also laughed loudly: "Brother Xi, uncle promised you that he will strive to raise beef cattle and make steaks for you."
Jiang Moxi looked at his uncle with obvious joy in his eyes. Looking at his nephew, Jiang Kangning's eyes became hot again, but his smile deepened.
Shao Yun'an put away his smile and said seriously, "Brother, there is another problem that must be solved first in Yongxiu County's business development."
Jiang Kangning immediately looked over and put away his smile.
Shao Yun'an: "Road."
Jiang Kangning: "Road?"
Shao Yun'an said: "If you want to get rich, build roads first. After the roads are built, goods can flow in and out more smoothly, logistics will run faster, and the economy can develop. In the next step, I plan to build roads between Xiushui Village and Yongxiu County. The road was rebuilt to speed up the time for the supplies from Xiushui Village to reach Yongxiu County. Brother, time is money. If we spend too much time on the road, how can we earn money? This is why local economies with developed transportation are developed. Local economies with underdeveloped transportation will lag behind. No matter how good your stuff is, if you can’t get it out and sell it for money, it’s useless.”
Jiang Kangning: "You are so right! The reason why Yongxiu County can survive is because the roads in Yongxiu County extend in all directions, and there is also shipping."
"Yes. So Yongxiu County is also rich in materials. There are materials from east, west, north and south. This is the advantage of convenient transportation. So brother, I have taken care of the road to Xiushui Village. All materials in Yongxiu County are well-developed, whether it is tea or fruit. Yes, as long as the road is not good, it should be your next plan. If you can succeed here, your prefect brother will have something to learn from. If the economy of Chinan Prefecture can achieve a leap, then The whole country has a model for reference. It is best that one day, we can go out of the country of Yan and go directly to the sea."
"Haha, with you here, we will surely be able to go to sea!" Jiang Kangning seemed to have seen the great blueprint.
Wang Qing asked curiously, "Daddy, what is going to sea?"
Shao Yunan: "It is to build a very large ship, and then cross the sea to see the other side of the sea. The sea is very big, boundless, and there are many countries on the other side of the sea, with countries that we have not seen. All kinds of exotic objects, customs, customs, languages we don’t understand, and people with different skin and hair colors from us can be regarded as another world.”
"Wow." Nizi exclaimed, with longing on her face, "I want to go."
Wang Qing: "I want to go too."
Jiang Moxi stared at Shao Yun'an, and said a word: "Boat."
Shao Yun'an said with a smile: "We don't have such a boat that can go to sea so far. This hope is left to you. I hope you can build such a boat when you grow up."
"Boat!" Jiang Moxi's eyes were piercing, as if he had developed a strong interest in that big, big boat.
Jiang Kangning looked at Shao Yun'an deeply, and thought: Yun'an, why do you know that there is another world beyond the sea? Have you ever been there
He didn't ask. He knew that unless he removed the mysterious veil on Shao Yun'an himself, he would never ask. This was not only what he thought, but also the emperor's death order to him.
