Chapter 404: Wu House Post

PreviousBack to directoryNext
In April, officials from various places made various transfers.

In fact, the emperor already knew these things in his mind when reporting on his duties at the end of the year. Basically, at the beginning of the year, he would meet with the staff and make arrangements.

There are promotions and demotions in various places, and the positions of some officials who retire and return to their hometowns also need to be replaced in a timely manner.

There are officials in the Hanlin Academy who want to be transferred out for training, and they have all been sorted out.

It was mid-May when winter was warm, and I received a letter from Gou Qingyun from Jizhou.

Yes, Jizhou.

Mr. Gou's political performance in the past few years was good, especially after the soap came into being, which brought Xiangshui County to a higher level.

The emperor was kind and allowed him to stay in office and receive bonuses for one year, and only this year did he think of transferring him to a higher position.

The other party used to be the magistrate of Qiguan County, but this year he jumped twice in a row and was transferred to Jizhou as a fifth-rank fellow magistrate.

That is to say, the opponent's political performance is really good, so he can convince the public. Otherwise, the old officials in the court will definitely have to nag him endlessly.

However, the current His Majesty is much more sober than the late Emperor. He will definitely carry out what he thinks is right, and he will not mess around.

Therefore, there are not many places where the veteran can really speak.

Gou Qingyun's letter also talks about her father's promotion.

In addition to a series of thanks, the letter also shared some daily information.

Jizhou is adjacent to Liangzhou, so their family moved to Jizhou without much trouble.

Because of the income from soap, although most of it went to the county, the Gou family also received a small part of the dividends, which made the life of the entire Gou family much easier.

You know, when the Gou family first came to Xiangshui County, they couldn't even afford a mansion, so they lived temporarily in the county government office.

Today is different from the past. After being transferred to Jizhou, their family proudly bought a big house.

Not only did he buy a house, but he also established a relationship with the prefect of Jizhou, who also helped to introduce his niece to the eldest son of the Gou family.

Gou Qingyun's two elder brothers are both studying in the capital. Although it is not convenient to meet each other now, after all, everyone is preparing for the college entrance examination this year, but judging from the intentions of the prefect, he is very satisfied with the Gou family.

The other party's niece's father's official position is one level lower than Lord Gou's, he is a sixth-grade general magistrate, and he is not an official in Jizhou.

But his family background is good and his character is good, so Mr. Gou is very satisfied.

I just waited for the eldest son of the Gou family to finish the exam and then go back for a blind date.

Gou Qingyun said the news excitedly, and Dong Nuan was also happy.

When I feel happy, I will quietly eat two pieces of beef jerky and my mood will improve accordingly.

Just after finishing eating and wiping his mouth, Hsinchu made a sound outside the door to signal Dong Nuan. Seeing that Dong Nuan had no objection, he opened the door and came in.

"Princess, Wu Mansion has sent a post here." Xinzhu said as he walked, and at the same time handed the post to Dong Nuan's desk.

After the weather gets warmer, the noble ladies in the capital begin to organize various banquets.

Some simply have a desire to share, and if there is no audience, they will feel very uncomfortable.

Some are blind date banquets organized by the elders, while others are separate meals and drinks.

This is the first post I received when Dongnuan entered May.

I took a look at the post and saw that it was a post sent from General Wu's residence. He said that he had recently obtained a batch of fresh bamboo shoots and wanted to invite you to share them.

It looked like a post about eating and drinking, but Dong Nuan was not sure, so he raised his eyebrows and asked: "Have you heard about the recent situation in Wu Mansion?"

Hsinchu must have inquired about these matters early in the morning. Even if he had no information, he would definitely have to find a way to ensure that his master was satisfied.

Therefore, when Dong Nuan asked, she hurriedly responded: "According to the secret news, the general's wife wants to show her love to the eldest young master."

Speaking of the eldest son of the Wu family, Dong Nuan was in a daze.

Although the other party was born in the general's palace, when the general's wife was pregnant with him, there was a war in the border area. News came that the general had died in the battle. The wife was so sad that she had a premature birth, and the eldest son was born with a poor body.

Not good.

A few years ago, he could still walk independently, but in recent years it is said that he has been in a wheelchair.

It is also because of my poor health that I hardly go out of the house on a daily basis. Maybe I am a little autistic and uncomfortable, so I just stay in the house and don't go out.

The other party seems to be twenty-two or three years old this year, but the marriage has not been smooth.

The general's wife was worried about this, but it was of no use.

The general's wife is not a person who cares about family status. She comes from a rural background, so it doesn't matter if the woman's status is lower.

However, the eldest son is in poor health, and his temper is said to be surly and difficult to understand. Some doctors also said that his legs will never be cured in his lifetime, and he may not live long.

Although the General's Mansion is said to have unlimited glory, the Dayue Dynasty valued civility over military affairs, so military generals were quite unworthy in the eyes of many dignitaries in the capital. Even if they were generals, many literati, especially those with stronger foundations, would not be respected no matter what.

I can't look down upon that either.

In addition, the eldest son himself is quite picky.

Therefore, his marriage was very difficult.

The reason why Dong Nuan was in a daze was because when he accidentally mentioned it before, Han Jianglou once said that General Wu had helped him in his previous life. If he hadn't appreciated it, he would never have been promoted so quickly.

Of course, he himself is capable, but a thousand-mile horse also needs someone to dig it.

Hanjianglou also said that General Wu even wanted to introduce his legitimate daughter to him.

However, at that time, he was heartbroken by the Han family, had no idea about love, and did not want to drag a good girl into the quagmire of the Han family, so he refused.

Dong Nuan remembered that at that time she was still pestering Han Jianglou to ask if he was attracted to Miss Wu.

Han Jianglou's expression at that time was very cute.

I feel helpless and want to laugh.

Dong Nuan couldn't hold back at that time and didn't even need to be coaxed, so she just started laughing.

Hanjiang Tower remembers revenge, but it also remembers kindness.

Naturally, he will always remember those who helped him in his previous life.

However, his ability is limited now, and this kind of thing is so mysterious that he can't tell anyone about it.

When he mentioned it at the time, he was also worried about Mr. Wu's body and legs.

"In his last life, the eldest son died in depression. He was not yet thirty years old when he died." Hanjianglou said in a helpless tone when he mentioned this eldest son.

From Dong Nuan's point of view, Mr. Wu may not necessarily be in particularly bad health. In fact, if he takes good care of himself, he can still live in his forties or fifties.

But, he couldn't walk with his legs, and he was still depressed in the end. He probably got into trouble in the end and let himself decline.

Dong Nuan doesn't know much about medical skills. Little monsters like them don't get sick very often. If they do get sick occasionally, they'll be fine after taking some pills or something.

Therefore, medical skills and winter warmth are not guaranteed.

However, her original ability is vitality, so maybe she can give it a try.
