After cleaning the tomb, Wu Zongrui offered incense, lit incense and candles, and paid homage to his mother.

Wu Zongrui still respected his mother who passed away and was a complete stranger, even though he was a person who traveled through time.

Liao Wenru also kowtows respectfully and offers incense.

After paying homage, Wu Zongrui and Liao Wenru retreated, and Wu Shungui walked to the front of the tomb.

Wu Shungui insisted on accompanying him, and Wu Zongrui and Liao Wenru could not stop him excessively.

"Damn it, look at Zong Rui. He passed the student examination and is promising. You should rest assured..."

While talking, Wu Shungui wiped the corners of his eyes.

This scene made Wu Zongrui sigh with pity for the parents in the world. Thinking about how he was always worried about his daughter before he time traveled, he didn't know what happened to his family after he time traveled, especially his daughter who was about to graduate from college.

"Zong Rui, I heard that you were back home. I came here specially to see you. I saw that you were full of energy and your face was rosy. I felt relieved."

"Brother Zong Lin, you are a rare guest, please take a seat."

Wu Zonglin suddenly visited his home, which was beyond Wu Zongrui's expectation and made him look at Wu Zonglin with admiration.

In his heart, Wu Zongrui has no interest in the position of the patriarch of the Wu family, and will never fight for it. He even thought about expressing his attitude at the appropriate time to resolve the trouble, so that Wu Shunfu and others would not always be worried and helpless.

Looking for trouble.

Today Wu Zonglin is here, which is the best opportunity.

After entering the main room and sitting down, Liao Wenru immediately went to make tea.

"This must be Master Jingkong who has returned to secular life. Could you please make tea..."

"Brother Zong Lin, don't be polite, this is what I should do."

When placing the brewed tea on the table, Liao Wenru still clasped his hands habitually, and Wu Zonglin quickly stood up and returned the courtesy.

Sitting down again, Wu Zonglin looked at Wu Zongrui and spoke.

"A few days ago, when I went to the county town for business, I went to Hanming Temple specifically, but I didn't see you. Master Jueyuan said that your situation was very good, and reassured me that I saw you today. It's true that I

Don’t worry, I’m back home. If you have any requests, just tell me. If I can do it, I will do my best.”

"Thank you. I don't have any ideas yet. It's already the busy farming season. I'll take care of the more than ten acres of farmland at home first, and then decide on other things."

"Why, don't you plan to go to the county school?"

"I won't go there for the time being. It's the same as studying at home. It can also save money."

"Zong Rui, I came here to tell you that it is still crucial to go to the county school to attend classes. Don't delay. You will not have time to participate in this year's provincial examination. You must participate in the provincial examination in three years. The Wu family has been doing this for many years.

No one has ever been elected, so the family's hope is pinned on you. Don't worry about financial expenses. I brought some money, you can keep it first. If it's not enough, just ask, the family will support it no matter what."

Wu Zonglin took out a cloth bag from his arms and placed it on the table.

"Brother Zong Lin said that academics are still the most important. I still plan to participate in this year's provincial examination. No matter what the result is, I can at least be familiar with the atmosphere of the provincial examination and prepare for the provincial examination three years later. The money sent by Brother Zong Lin will

I accepted it. The provincial examination required expenses, so I borrowed it temporarily and will return it in full in the future."

Wu Zonglin had a look of surprise on his face.

"Needless to say about the money, the autumn examination will be held in September, and there is only more than half a year left. Is it too late?"

"It should be in time. I plan to leave at the end of June or early July. I still have five months to prepare. The problem is not too big."

Wu Zonglin nodded.

"Then I wish you good luck in passing the provincial examination and high school."

"Thank you so much, Brother Zong Lin. I will work hard and rush to Nanchang Mansion to take the provincial examination. I will ask Brother Zong Lin to take care of my family affairs."

"No problem, this is what I should do."

Wu Zongrui nodded secretly. It seemed that Wu Zonglin was much calmer than Wu Shunfu, or at least much smoother.

"Brother Zong Lin, I was not familiar with the world in the past and caused a lot of trouble for my family. This time I have been practicing in Hanming Temple for three months. The more I think about it, the more I feel that I have done a lot of childish things in the past. Fortunately, it has all passed.

I will also pay attention to whatever the Wu family needs in the future. As long as I can do it, I will do it well. If Brother Zong Lin needs my help, I will do my best."

Hearing Wu Zongrui say this, Wu Zonglin had a smile on his face.

"Zong Rui, I can't stand listening to what you are saying. You have not done anything detrimental to the family. Yesterday Zong Kun came to your house with a bad attitude and a bit arrogant. I have already told him,

You are a Linshan student and have a great reputation. When Zong Kun sees you, he must be respectful."

"They are all brothers, so that's okay. Zong Kun and I didn't exchange a few words."

"Zong Rui, in fact, Zong Kun and I are not as good as you. In the future, I need you to worry more about the Wu family's affairs."

Wu Zongrui looked at Wu Zonglin, shook his head and spoke.

"Brother Zong Lin, I have just said that if the family needs my help, it is my duty to do so. However, I have never thought about taking care of the family's affairs, and I have no interest in it. If I want to take the provincial examination, I will definitely indulge in my studies.

, I don’t have the time or energy to take care of many family matters, so I ask Brother Zong Lin to forgive me.”

Wu Zonglin blinked, and the expression on his face relaxed slightly.

This expression was naturally seen by the experienced Wu Zongrui.

"Zong Rui, what you said is wrong. The family has always been governed by the capable. Your ability is far superior to Zong Kun and me. You are outstanding in the entire family. At the age of fourteen, you entered the hospital to take the high school examination and became a member of the Wu family.

As the youngest diners, I want you to help my father take care of the affairs of the Wu family, so that the family will prosper."

Wu Zongrui waved his hands repeatedly.

"Brother Zong Lin, I have made up my mind. From now on, I will be immersed in my studies and will not be able to participate in many family affairs. Besides, managing family affairs requires experience and experience. I am not familiar with the internal affairs of the family.

I’m not interested either, but Brother Zong Lin, you are familiar with family affairs and can handle many family affairs with ease."

"Zong Rui, I really hope you can help take care of many things in the family. If you feel unfamiliar, I can help you and ask my father to remind you more."

"Thank you Brother Zong Lin for your kindness. Please don't say any more in this regard."

Wu Zonglin waved his hands helplessly.

"If you don't tell me, I won't. I'm here today. I really need to ask you for help."

"What's going on? Brother Zong Lin, tell me."

"It's about Zong Kun. I have already felt that Zong Kun may not have much achievements in his studies. His character is a bit impatient and needs to be tempered. I discussed with my father a few days ago and thought about letting Zong Kun go to school through petition.

Being an official in the county government is also a way to get a future and a good job. However, no one in the family is familiar with Lord Shen, the county magistrate. After thinking about it, there is some intersection between you and Lord Shen. After all, you are Lord Shen.

I am a student who has the honor of being a dining room student. Can you see if you can go find Mr. Shen and ask Mr. Shen to help take care of him."

Wu Zongrui nodded. It turned out that he wanted to donate some money and let Wu Zongkun go to the county government to do things.

The so-called suing means donating money to serve as officials in government offices at all levels. The price of suing is clearly marked. A clerk in the sixth house of the county government needs thirty taels of silver, and a pian clerk needs twenty taels of silver. At the same time, it needs to be given to those who have resigned.

A sum of money from an official or official.

"Brother Zong Lin, are there any vacancies for county clerks and clerks?"

"There is a vacancy for a clerk in the barracks. The clerk is in poor health and can no longer do work. My father asked someone to get the news from the county government, so he prepared to let Zong Kun go to the county government to do work."

"It turns out that it requires a lot of money."

"I roughly calculated that sixty taels of silver are needed. The county government needs twenty taels of silver. I will give the outgoing military officer 10 taels of silver. The remaining thirty taels of silver will be used for dredging. After all, many people are watching.

This vacant position.”

"That's it. I can try my best, but I can't guarantee it. After all, there are many people eyeing the position of military officer."

"I know this, and I don't think I will be able to do it well. In the end, I just try my best."

"Well, tomorrow I will go to the social science school to visit Mr., and the day after tomorrow I will go to the county government office to ask for an audience with Mr. Shen."

"Okay, this matter is settled like this. I'm waiting for your news. Here are thirty taels of silver. Mr. Shen's place is enough for twenty taels of silver. The remaining ten taels of silver are your reward. No matter whether the matter can be solved or not.

Okay, you accept these ten taels of silver. I didn’t know before that you were going to take the provincial examination in September, so you didn’t prepare so much silver. Now it’s just right. If you take it, the expenses of the provincial examination will be almost covered.”

"That's fine, I'll accept it. Thank you, Brother Zong Lin."

"No, I also want to thank you. No matter what the outcome of this matter is, I will remember your kindness."

Wu Zongrui didn't return to the house until Wu Zonglin's back was no longer visible.

"Brother, I think Brother Zong Lin is very good, with a humble attitude, and he is also very good to you..."

"Wen Ru, don't jump to conclusions so quickly. Some things are not as simple as you think. You will understand in the future."

"Why do you say that?"

"Two o'clock."

Wu Zongrui looked at Liao Wenru and stretched out two fingers.

"First, I have the honor of being a Linshan student. Brother Zong Lin is actually begging me to do something to find a future for Zong Kun. Zong Lin is Zong Kun's brother. As for Zong Kun, you also saw him yesterday.

, I dare to conclude that if Zong Kun is not allowed to go to the Yamen to sharpen his skills, he will definitely cause trouble in the future and implicate Brother Zong Lin."

"Secondly, I am determined not to participate in any management matters of the Wu family, so I will not pose a threat. Brother Zong Lin will naturally feel relieved when he sees my firm attitude. I will also agree to him taking over the position of patriarch in the future, and he will naturally be polite to me.

.”

"Wen Ru, you have to remember that there are not so many things that are taken for granted in this world. The most fundamental thing is your own toughness. If I didn't have the identity of a Linshan student and didn't show my strength yesterday, Brother Zong Lin might not come to your door today. Back then, I

When he was sent to Hanming Temple to practice, Brother Zong Lin didn't seem to say anything."

Liao Wenru touched his head.

"Brother, what you said made me murmur in my heart."

"When you should mutter, you should mutter, and you should think more. People respect me as much as I respect others. If others try to plot against me, I will retaliate twice as much. Don't be confused by benevolence and righteousness.
