Chapter 3487 Extra Story Mr. Zhuang 3

Mr. Zhuang sat in the study for a long time, finally sighed, put the dry and knotted brushes on the shelf, tore up the half-written letter and threw it into the brazier at his feet.

He got up and put all the books in the rattan box, and then went out to say goodbye to some friends.

As the governor's staff, Mr. Zhuang naturally knew many people, those who were lower than the governor's official position, especially the subordinate officials of the governor's mansion and the county magistrates below, treated Mr. Zhuang very politely.

After all, he is very valued by Governor Du, and sometimes he can influence the allocation of funds in various counties with a single word.

So he has many friends, but there are not many who can let him say goodbye.

Mr. Zhuang only found a few friends to say goodbye.

They were all surprised and asked, "You are being valued, why are you leaving?"

Mr. Zhuang smiled wryly, because he was a good friend, he didn't hide it from them, and said: "I can't stay here anymore, Da Lang is not in the right mood now, if he stays any longer, he will be finished."

My friends are very sorry, "The governor values ​​you very much. There is news from above that the governor may be promoted in the past two years. At that time, if you follow, you can further use the influence of the governor to seek a county magistrate. If you take a step back, you will be by the governor's side." The famous people, there are opportunities..."

Mr. Zhuang shook his head and said, "I can't ruin my child just for my own future."

One person suggested: "Otherwise let the sister-in-law take Dalang back to his hometown, and you stay."

Mr. Zhuang smiled wryly, "The child is on the edge of a dead end now. If he can't correct it, he may have to make a detour in the future. Raising a child is a matter between two people. How can I push the child to her?"

"She has always been gentle, so I'm afraid she won't be able to restrain that child. What's more," Mr. Zhuang said after a pause, "The Du family's son insulted me. Da Lang is looking after me as a father. How can I ignore him?" Pay, but send him away and stay in the Du family?"

Mr. Zhuang expressed the dissatisfaction of the Du family for the first time, "Du Inspector is not worth it."

The friends sighed after hearing this, and although they felt it was a pity, they still said: "This is true. You treat him as a gentleman of the country, so you can repay him as a scholar of the country. He has no respect for you, and it is useless to stay here. It is better to find another good man." host."

"Yeah, with Xunmei's ability, it's only a matter of time before you get ahead, just find another lord."

"I heard that a new envoy has arrived in Yizhou. He is well-known in the court. Why don't you give it a try? Then Yizhou is not far from your hometown, Mianzhou."

Zhuang Xun's expression darkened, he shook his head and said, "I have already promised Du Cishi that I will never be a staff member again."

The friends were surprised and turned pale: "Why do you make such a promise?"

Someone like Zhuang Xun who has obvious stains on his body can no longer become an official after passing the normal imperial examination, and can only take a side path. When he has no money and no power, serving as an aide is the most effective way.

They knew that Zhuang Xun had always wanted to stand out, one was for his own ambition, and the other was to wash away his grievances.

It has always been his goal to become an official.

Mr. Zhuang smiled at them and said, "So I can't go to Yizhou, but you can give it a try."

He said: "Du Inspector is narrow-minded, and there is no virtuous person to assist him in the back house. I'm afraid the good times won't last long. You should leave Longzhou as soon as possible."

Several friends looked at each other, secretly shocked. They all knew that Mr. Zhuang was used as a reference for many decisions of the governor's mansion. Because of Mr. Zhuang's advice, Governor Du seldom made mistakes. nice.

Now that Mr. Zhuang is gone, with Du Cishi's character shown in the past few years...

Several friends sighed and agreed.

As soon as Mr. Zhuang left, several people sighed: "Everyone knows that greedy guy in the backyard of the governor's mansion, if there is any benefit, he should hold on tightly, even if he passes by, two hedgehogs will be pulled out." Ci, before Xunmei often advised Du Cishi about this matter, I think this time, the matter is mostly slandered by the back house."

"What's the point of saying this now? If Governor Du is honest, how could he be blown away by the wind from the pillow?" One person said: "I think they are the same breed, husband and wife, don't blame anyone."

"Leaving Xunmei, let me see what he will do with his performance appraisal this year."

"This year can still pass, but next year won't be sure. With the personalities of these two, there is no one to restrain them. I'm afraid there will be trouble. It's fine if they don't be discovered by then. Once they are discovered..."

"Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about this spoiler, Xunmei is leaving, and we will find some good things for him to practice."

"For a good thing, you can either send books or money. The former is what he loves. The latter, since you can't be an assistant, I'm afraid you will have to worry about your livelihood in the future. Giving money is the most suitable."

Mr. Zhuang's family background is not very rich. When he was driven out of the capital, he had no money on him. They went all the way south and returned to their hometown. When they arrived in Mianzhou, he felt ashamed to see his ancestors and relatives, so he turned back, and finally Stopped in Longzhou.

He had a serious illness here, and the family had no food at that time, and it was his wife who went out to wash clothes for others, which prevented Mr. Zhuang from taking his medicines, but they lived in poverty for a while.

Later, Mr. Zhuang found work copying books and doing bookkeeping for others, and life gradually became easier. It was not until he worked as an assistant to the governor that the family began to have savings, but it was not much.

If you want to move at this time, returning home is an expense, and returning home to settle down is another big expense.

Mr. Zhuang settled the accounts with Mrs. Ji, and seeing Mrs. Ji's sad face, he took her by the hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'll find a job when I go back to my hometown."

He laughed and said, "I can read and count, so it's easy to find a job."

Zhuang Dalang at the side suddenly said: "You can be an accountant."

Mr. Zhuang turned his head to look, Zhuang Dalang lowered his head and whispered: "Father is very good as an accountant."

In his memory, the period when his father was the accountant was the happiest and happiest day he had ever lived. Every day, his father could come home on time, and his mother would prepare meals. Every now and then, there would be a meat dish that they liked.

He goes out to school every day. Whether it is the classmates in the school or the friends in the alley, they all like him and admire him very much. Even his father's boss has a kind face when he sees him, and will give him snacks and candies.

He likes his father as a bookkeeper.

Mr. Zhuang smiled and said, "Look for it when you go back."

They quickly packed up their things, and by the time the governor's office and the officials knew about it, Mr. Zhuang had already left.

When Wei Canjun found out about this, his eyes lit up, and he stretched out his hand to grab someone, "Mr. Zhuang isn't working in the Governor's Mansion anymore?"

The other party knew his plan when he saw his gaze, "Do you want to invite him?"

Wei Canjun chuckled and said, "I've seen Mr. Zhuang's talent for a long time, and I think he's too good to be an aide. It just so happens that the army lacks a master secretary. If he doesn't mind, he can come to the army and have a try."
