When Qin Fang saw Yang Haiyan asking himself, he truthfully said: "Master Du wrote a letter to me, Master Du said, I just got promoted in March, no matter how much credit the sulphur mine and the saltpeter mine have made, it will not be easy at this time. Promotion. I thought about it, the emperor didn't want me to be promoted too quickly."

Even though Yang Haiyan has never been in the workplace, she knows some of these situations, and the workplace is nothing compared to the imperial court. The boss will still put pressure on the employees, let alone the emperor? "Then this credit? No reward at all?"

Qin Fang said: "Not really. The emperor sealed the appointments of grandma and grandmother, and they are the appointments of the seven-rank Ruren."

Yang Haiyan heard this: "According to our law of opening the country, a man as an official can ask his wife or mother for an official appointment, usually his wife. When you were promoted to General Wude, my official appointment was given, so There is no appointment with my mother, and this time I exchanged the rewards of sulphur mine and saltpeter mine for my mother and my grandmother's appointment, which is a happy event." Picked her up and raised her. It's just that when the great-grandmother picked her up, she was too old, otherwise she would not be her great-grandmother. So when she was fifteen years old, the great-grandmother died.

Therefore, she is somewhat yearning for family affection. Now Qin's mother and Qin's grandma love Qin Fang very much, and they also love her. If it was her, with such a mother and grandma, they would be willing to exchange their awards for their appointments. Therefore, she could see that Qin Fang was also very happy. However, in Yang Haiyan's view, there is another advantage, "In this way, mother and grandma have a monthly payment of 4 taels of silver each month." For ordinary people, that is a lot of money, after all, they spend less than four taels of silver a year.

The emperor gave Grandma Qin and Mother Qin an official appointment, and it was not generous. The two official appointments of the seventh grade add up to about one hundred taels of silver every year, which can be used for their death. But if it is the official destiny of the fifth grade, it will be more than a thousand taels a year, which is a huge difference.

Qin Fang didn't think of this. All his subsidies now add up to 122 months, which is enough for adoptive parents and grandparents, so he didn't think about the official salary. Now that Yang Haiyan mentioned it, he felt that this matter could not be better.

The couple chatted for a while, and then Yang Haiyan went to prepare dinner. Today, he must be entertaining Wei Ting and Director Chi. It's just that Yang Haiyan didn't know that although the military camp's land policy and saltpeter ice-making contributed a lot, it was not enough for the emperor to confer upon her the title of Xiangjun, and half of her honor today was attributed to Qin Fang. The real credit is the sulphur mine and the saltpeter mine.

It's just that Qin Fang is not going to tell her about such a thing. In Qin's relief, she only needs to be happy. He was willing to make any sacrifices for her, just like she never disliked him.

Baili Village

Baili Village is holding a running water banquet at the moment. Although Qin Fang is not there, the clan elder and the village chief know about such a glorious thing, so the running water banquet will naturally be held. Moreover, this running water banquet was also very rich, and Qin's mother who lost money was rich. Last year, when the eldest couple went back to the border gate, there were still 30 taels of money left behind to build a house. In addition to the 10 taels of filial piety money they brought back at the end of last year, the purse in Qin's mother's hand was also bulging.

"Mother Qin Fang, congratulations to all of you. Qin Fang was a clever child when he was young. At first glance, he was very promising. He didn't expect to become a general now."

"Isn't it? You have to watch the old age at the age of three. I used to think that Qin Fang was capable."

"The Qin family has changed its family, and it will be the official family in the future."

"It is said that the general Qin Fang is bigger than the county magistrate."

"Then will the county magistrate come today?"

"The Qin family didn't invite the county magistrate?"

The Qin family did not invite the county magistrate, and the county magistrate didn't know about it at first. After all, Qin Fang did not follow the path of martial arts, and the court where he was promoted would not make it public, nor would he pass the news back to his hometown, so what happened to the county magistrate? would know?

Moreover, the Qin family is not the kind of person who likes to publicize. Apart from the villagers, the Liushuixi seats are relatives of the Qin family.

But the county magistrate still knew, because the people who announced the imperial decree in the capital came.

The people of Baili Village are eating at the moment. Everyone is eating and chatting, and it is very lively. Just at this moment, a group of people came in, headed by the yamen. The yamen of the county government wears the clothes of the yamen, so they are very eye-catching. As soon as the yamen came in, the people inside were startled, and some people didn't even swallow the food in their mouths, so they watched in astonishment.

Someone began to whisper: "Why is the yamen here?"

"The Qin family won't do anything wrong, right?"

"Qin Fang is a general, an official even bigger than the county magistrate?"

"That must be Qin Fang's fault?"

"Who knows?"

The Qin family was also very uneasy. Everyone, look at me, I look at you. Finally, when Grandpa Qin stepped forward and was going to ask questions, he saw that the yamen stood still and did not speak, but someone came in at the gate of the yard. Those who come here are dressed in official uniforms, and at first glance they are officials.

"The county magistrate..." The village chief called out. Others don't know the county magistrate, but the village head does. The village head hurriedly came out of the crowd and walked to the county magistrate, "Caomin has seen the county magistrate."

When everyone heard the village chief say that this person was the county magistrate, and saw the village chief kneeling down again, they all stood up, ready to kneel down.

The county magistrate hurriedly said: "You don't need to be more polite, just listen to me first."

Suddenly, the people who were about to kneel stopped. The villagers would still listen to the words of the county magistrate.

The county magistrate looked around: "Is this the house of General Qin Fang Qin?"

When everyone heard this, they stepped aside and looked at the Qin family. However, from the question of the county magistrate, they also understood that Qin Fang did not seem to have committed a crime, and the county magistrate seemed to be here to celebrate?

Grandpa Qin walked up to the person and said respectfully, "Caomin is Qin Fang's grandfather, and he has met the county magistrate."

The county magistrate stepped forward and hurriedly supported him without letting him salute. The county magistrate followed and said: "Old man, don't be too polite. General Qin has done great work in the sect, and the emperor has sealed Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Qin's orders. Right now, the officials who publicize the imperial decree are waiting outside, and this official is going to invite people in. "In the state of Qi, officials are officials, they are eunuchs, and eunuchs are also called eunuchs, so they have the titles of officials and officials.

Many ordinary people don't know the meaning of some imperial orders, but there are still quite a lot of ordinary people in Baili Village who know the meaning of imperial appointments. Because Baili Village has Tongsheng and scholars, when people chat, they also talk about scholars and officials. Therefore, I know that if the son in the family is promising and becomes an official, he can ask for an official order for his mother.

However, appointments are rarely given to grandmothers.

Grandpa Qin also has some understanding of this aspect. After his grandson returned to the military camp last year, after knowing that his grandson had become a seventh-rank commander, Grandpa Qin often asked Tong Sheng about official affairs. Although Tong Sheng knew very little, he knew more than Grandpa Qin anyway.

"This..." Grandpa Qin was stupid, the eldest grandson fought for his grandmother and grandmother? Or two? How big of an official is this? Grandpa Qin couldn't react, he looked at Huang Huzi.

Huang Huzi stepped forward and supported Grandpa Qin: "Don't worry, the general has indeed made a great contribution this time. Let's invite the officials in first."

Hearing that Huang Huzi said that the eldest grandson had indeed made a great contribution, Grandpa Qin breathed a sigh of relief, and he said to the county magistrate, "Thank you, the county magistrate, for letting me know that there are officials."

The county magistrate glanced at Huang Huzi and said to everyone: "The officials are here with the imperial decree, and everyone will give in."

Then a **** came in with the imperial decree: "The imperial decree is here, Qin Fang's biological mother, Qin Li, will take the decree."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

What the **** read next, everyone couldn't understand, and neither did Qin's mother. The **** finished reading the canonization decree for Qin's mother, and then read the canonization decree for Qin's grandmother. After reading it, he looked at them and said, "Two Ru people, please accept the order."

Qin's mother said in a panic: "The woman accepts the decree, thank the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live."

Seeing this, Grandma Qin also followed: "The woman accepts the decree, thank the emperor, long live the emperor, long live, long live."

When the **** saw this, he did not say that their etiquette was irregular. Knowing that they were women without knowledge, he would not be too picky. The **** gave them the imperial decree and said a few scenes: "General Qin has a bright future, and the two children will have better luck in the future. Our family is here, so I will congratulate the Qin family in advance."

Grandma Qin hurriedly said: "You are so polite. Today... Today, our family is setting up a water table to celebrate A Fang's becoming a general. We are also grateful to the court for the importance of A Fang. You are a guest from afar. Please come to the table. "

The **** said: "Thank you Ruren, the emperor is still waiting for our family to reply, our family will not disturb."

Grandpa Qin hurriedly said: "The officials have been exhausted all the way. It's too outrageous for our family to not even invite a cup of tea. We also invited the officials to go into the inner hall and have a cup of tea before leaving."

The **** smiled: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."

Grandpa Qin brought the **** into the house, and Grandma Qin hurriedly poured a glass of sugar water. The **** picked up the sugar water and took a symbolic sip: "The tea has been drank, and our family is really going to leave. If there is a fate in the future, it is impossible for us to meet in the capital."

Grandpa Qin hurriedly gave a purse: "Today there is a running water table at home. It's our rule here that guests must receive happy money and feel the joy of the family. I also ask the officials not to refuse." Grandpa Qin's words are high-end, let alone eunuchs Will refuse, even if there is no good reason for refusal.

However, these are the words of the scene, and everyone knows it well. The **** took the purse and stuffed it into his sleeve: "Then we are leaving." As soon as he received the purse, who was used to reward money, he felt light inside, and knew that it must be a silver note. For those who would use bank notes, the amount would definitely not be small, so the **** was in a good mood.
