Chapter 30 The Beginning of Taking Office (Part 2)
"Who?" A slightly immature voice came from the room, and he was trembling and obviously had to hold on to ask questions.
"But Mr. Xiao Jiang? We are friends of Mr. Da Jiang!" Wen Chou said comfortingly.
"Friends, friends at that time?" Jiang Xian said with caution. This is not a reason for Jiang Xian to be cautious. The fate was said to be a friend of the eldest brother a few days ago, but it came to insult and deception!
"Axian, these should be Amin's friends. Don't you watch them wait outside the courtyard for a long time, but you haven't seen anyone breaking in? Alas, you've been reading for so many years, so why don't you invite someone in?" Another old voice came from the house. Although it was scolding Jiang Xian, it was full of kindness.
"But, my mother..." Jiang Xian was still waiting for excuse.
"But what? Why don't you go and invite the distinguished guests in!" Cang Lao's voice sounded again.
"Yes, my mother." Jiang Xian hurriedly got up and walked out the door. There was a "bang" sound in the room. Maybe Jiang Xian bumped into something in the room because of nervousness.
"Oh!" Another old sigh came from the house.
"Squeak" Jiang Xian came to the door of the house and saw the group of people outside the courtyard clearly, but suddenly remembered: "Is it because the newly appointed Youzhi Wenjun is here? It is said that the eldest brother entered the thief camp with Wenjun! Looking at the number of people, it happened to be eighteen. I think so!" After understanding these, Jiang Xian breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked to the courtyard gate and shouted: "But Wenjun."
"That's right, I came to disturb you, but I became an uninvited villain!" Wen Chou saw that the young man who was about fourteen or five years old, wearing a robe, and looked at each other behind him and smiled.
"Wenjun,...Wenjun." This young man, after hearing Wen Chou say this, wanted to say some polite words, but after all, he was still young and mostly because he was studying hard at home. He had little experience and could not find a suitable word. He just hurriedly walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
"Oh, why are you a bad guest? It's a great master Wenjun. We were unable to meet the people, but it was a sin." Jiang's mother poked a crutch and left the door.
"Yes, you have sinned, please come in!" Jiang Xian opened the fence door and reached out to ask respectfully.
"My mother doesn't have to go out, I'll go here!" Wen Chou saw Jiang's mother walking into the yard and hurriedly said with a smile. He led everyone to the yard.
"Mr. Wen came to Han's house, but did he come for my son Aming?" Jiang's mother stopped asking.
"Jiang Mingjun, I followed me to the thief camp, but I was unable to bring him back that day, and I felt guilty and uneasy. Please accept my mother's bow!" Wen Chou walked to Jiang's mother and bowed down. Yan Liang, Liu Zhong and others could not stand and bowed down one after another when they saw Wen Chou bowing down. Jiang Xian was beside Jiang's mother, and saw that he dared to accept Wen Chou's courtesy, but he could not hold him back. He hurriedly faced Wen Chou and others to bow. Except for Jiang's mother, they were still standing on their own in a courtyard, and everyone else was kneeling down.
"Oh, what are you doing? Are you trying to destroy me? Why don't you ask me to get up quickly!" When Jiang's mother saw this situation, she pointed her crutch and said anxiously.
"Mr. Dajiang, a real hero, should do this!" Yan Liang said carefreely and in a deep voice.
"If it weren't for Dajiang Jun, I wonder how many people would be trapped in the thief camp!" Liu Zhong said solemnly.
...
"You guys, if you don't get up, do you want the old woman to kneel down?" Jiang's mother heard Jiang Ming's all kinds of words, and then she aroused the pain of losing her son! She looked at the worshippers and was quite proud of Jiang Ming.
"Mother, even though Mr. Jiang has passed away, we are your son!" Wen Chou said in a deep voice.
"We are your son!" everyone said together.
"I feel so relieved when you say this!" Jiang's mother wiped the turbid tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand towel.
"Let's sit in the house, Ah Xian poured hot soup for the guests!" Jiang's mother turned around and walked into the house.
Wen Chou, Yan Liang and others entered the house, but they saw that although they were not poor, the only few furniture was arranged in order, and they were not very rich.
Jiang's mother found a mat, opened it and sat down on it.
"My mother, are those rewards sent by the village chief?" Wen Chou asked when he saw that there was a bamboo basket in the hall, full of Wuzhu coins.
"Well, I was sent by the village when I grew up in the morning, saying it was a reward given by the county. It was nearly 20,000 yuan!" Jiang's mother said.
"My mother, how do you use this money?"
"This money! I don't think about it anymore, I just expect Ah Xian to have a good future!" Jiang's mother looked at the busy Jiang Xian and said.
"Mother, you are old, I see that there is no maid or servant at home. Brother Jiang was fine when he was there, but now I think it's so inconvenient," Wen Chou said with concern.
"Oh, I'm a poor family, so there are so many things to pay attention to. Besides, if I hire a maid, the cost of Ah Xian's school entrance exam will be gone." Jiang's mother sighed.
"Has my mother ever heard that the rewards in the county have not been paid yet? Although I don't know how many there are, I think there are these!" Wen Chou asked.
"Oh, is there any other matter? The village chief has never mentioned it?" Jiang's mother said in surprise.
"Well, maybe when the reward is released, the village chief will deliver it to you." Wen Chou didn't do anything and said with a smile.
...
After about an hour of chatting, Wen Chou also learned about the Jiang Ming family and the basic situation here.
A few days ago, the one who came to insult the Jiang family was a ruthless man in the house! He was most afraid of Jiang Ming on weekdays. Now that he saw that Jiang Ming was dead, he brought a few thugs to find trouble, find fault, and show off his power!
"My mother, this is five thousand yuan. Although it is not much, I will ask two maids to take care of your daily life!" Wen Chou took a bun from his horse and handed it to Jiang Xian and said. "If you have short money, you can ask someone to sue me!"
"Wenjun, what are you doing? My family already has 20,000 yuan, which is enough to use it. Get your money back quickly!" Jiang's mother said seriously.
"Oh, my mother doesn't want her to show her reputation?" Wen Chou said, "Didn't I just say that, if you are studying and studying, it is the best in Yingchuan, Yuzhou. It is thousands of miles away, and it requires a lot of money! Please accept it!"
"Oh, but please Wenjun. If Axian succeeds in what he has learned, he will come back to help you." After hearing Wen Chou's explanation, Jiang's mother's vision was wide open, and her pursuit was naturally different. Besides, Jiang Xian is also quite talented in studying. Those tens of thousands of dollars are not enough.
"Yeah, mother, let's go back!" Wen Chou and others turned over and walked towards the distance.
"Wen Chou, what have you done over the years?" Yan Liang asked inquired about Wen Chou by stepping over.
"I didn't do anything, didn't I beg you for three years?" Wen Chou said with a smile.
"No, different, why do you know so much, from all over the world!" Yan Liang said even more suspiciously.
"It's just that during the Dingyou period, I read more books! There is a golden house in the book, and a beautiful woman in the book!" Wen Chou said with a smile.
"There is a golden house in the book, and the Yan Ruyu in the book!" Yan Liang murmured in a low voice to think about Wen Chou's words, and couldn't help but walk a little slower.
Wen Chou knew a lot, of course, this was not just Yan Liang's idea. Everyone present was shocked by Wen Chou's talent. During the conversation with Jiang's mother and Jiang Xian, especially when discussing with Jiang Xian, who had been reading for several years, they had many literary words, and solved many academic problems that had troubled him for a long time!
Originally, Wen Chou had never shown how talented he was when he was with them. Now, as soon as he talked to scholars, he could clearly distinguish it! Besides, they were mostly rough people and read very little, even if they were literate, they only read some enlightenment textbooks for "Jijiu Pian". Naturally, they felt that Wen Chou was full of knowledge! If Jiang Cheng was here, he would be surprised again, that was the difference in thinking style!
Wen Chou did not leave Donglin Pavilion, but took out a roll of bamboo slips from a plaid on the horse's back, which recorded all the sacrificed personnel of Donglin Pavilion!
"Let's go, go to the forest on the left!" Wen Chou looked at Zhu Jian and walked to the left first.
"Aren't you going to Yangliting and visit Xiaowu's house?" Wenba asked.
"Not only, Jiang Ming and Xiao Wu are heroes, and all those who make sacrifices for the countryside deserve our respect!" Wen Chou said with a solemn expression.
"It should be so!" Everyone looked at each other and respected Wen Chou even more.
In this way, Wen Chou and his group went door to door to search for the families of the seriously injured people. They left behind without waiting for money depending on the situation! At most, they could be as high as six or seven thousand, and at least one or two thousand.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and the casualties from Beisi Pavilion had just finished their searches. The 70,000 yuan that Wen Chou brought himself and the 100,000 yuan that Yan Liang and others brought were only more than 10,000 yuan left.
Wen Chou's move quickly spread throughout Shahe Township! The people were amazed, and the refugees who settled in Shahe Township also had a preliminary sense of belonging.
This is just the first step at Wen Chou’s beginning of his tenure!
Wen Chou was about to return to the Guan Temple in Liyuan, but he saw a horse flying from afar.
"Wenjun, Wenjun, the county officials want to see you."
