Chapter 353: Clothing ()

Mrs. Tang saw this and felt pleased.

If Tang Youyin can achieve great success, the Tang family will follow suit. He has struggled for many years, and the Tang family has become a rich man. In the past three years, he has climbed up to the palace and worked hard for the princess, and the status of the Tang family has been significantly improved.

Tang Youyin entered the main hall surrounded by Tang clan members.

It was dark outside, but the lights in the main hall were as bright as day. Everyone in the Tang clan was in high spirits, no one was sleepy, and they talked non-stop around Tang Youyin.

Someone asked Tang Youyin if he was tired from working as an errand in the palace.

Tang Youyin said patiently: "Working in the household of the royal palace is much more tiring than working in the county government before. Feng Changshi is in charge of the taxation and internal affairs of Nanyang County. There are many affairs in the household every day, and various account books must be set up and settled. All current accounts. The household room does not need to reuse me. No one in the household room is idle. "

"Feng Changshi does have a bit of a temper, but his ability is also first-rate. He is over fifty years old, and he can calculate accounts very quickly. The expenses of the entire palace, the land, population and food of Nanyang County are all here. In my heart, I open my mouth.”

"I worked with Feng Changshi and learned a lot. If I can learn five things from Feng Changshi, I will be satisfied."

Tang Youyin held Feng Changshi in high esteem, and his respect came from the bottom of his heart.

The people of the Tang clan were very excited after hearing this, and they all said: "Feng Changshi puts you in such high regard, you must learn your skills well."

"Feng Changshi will grow old one day. After ten or eight years, you will be able to take over Feng Changshi's errands. You will also be able to become the chief historian of the palace."

Tang Youyin said hurriedly: "Don't say this nonsense. If it reaches the ears of the princess, it will be too frivolous and wanton."

"There are no outsiders here, so what you say will not spread." Mrs. Tang smiled and said, "Everyone is looking forward to your well-being."

Tang Youyin said sternly: "I know everyone hopes that I will be well, so I have to be more cautious. Don't say what you shouldn't say, and don't do what you can't do."

Not to mention anything else, this calmness is already better than that of other descendants of the Tang family.

Mrs. Tang gave up the last trace of unwillingness in his heart and said in front of everyone: "In the future, the Tang family will always be in your hands. Everyone will do what you say."

Tang Youyin said: "The Tang family is currently working for the princess. Who the family head will be passed to in the future depends on the princess's wishes. It is too early to say this now."

In fact, I just want to stay in the palace forever, and I don’t look down on being the head of the Tang family, right?
Mr. Tang knew what he was talking about, but he didn't tell the truth. He followed Tang Youyin's words and said with a smile: "That's right, let's talk about the future later."

Everyone couldn't help but talk about Tang's grain store.

"In the past six months, the Tang family has divided into three branches and opened twelve grain stores in the north."

"The promotion of new grain varieties has gone smoothly. People in six counties have tried planting new grains this year. Now that the corn has been harvested, it is still unclear how much the output will be. Statistics should be sent back soon. "

"It doesn't have to be three or four times higher. Even twice the yield per mu is enough. No matter how much you say, it's still not as good as the people themselves cultivating crops. When the sweet potatoes are harvested, the business of the grain store will be better."

"Right now, we are paying money in. When the new grain is promoted and more people buy grain seeds, we should get some benefits."

Hearing this, Tang Youyin smiled and said: "The purpose of the princess setting up the grain store was to promote new grains, not to make money. Otherwise, it would be a personal guard camp sent out, and the monthly military salary would be spent." Sales are a huge amount.”

Isn't it? What can you do with just the little money you get from selling grain? Not to mention, the guard camp has been secretly sheltering hungry people, which is a waste of food and money.

Mrs. Tang lowered his voice and said: "Xi'e County has gained more than a thousand hungry people this year. Magistrate Zou is so happy that he almost smiles. In your opinion, how many hungry people does the princess plan to recruit to increase the population?"

Tang Youyin glanced at Mrs. Tang: "Then it depends on how much grain each county can harvest this year."

In other words, the more the better, the more the better.

Mrs. Tang knew it well and whispered: "The princess has the world in mind and has great ambitions."

Tang Youyin said: "Half of the men in our Tang family are running around outside and risking riots, and the princess sees it. In the future, the princess will never treat our Tang family poorly. Please rest assured, uncle." "

Mrs. Tang nodded and suddenly sighed: "I used to be arrogant and self-righteous. I dared to look down on and neglect the princess. I was replaced as the head of the family. It was not unfair at all. It was your father who had unique vision and chose a better road for the Tang family. road."

Mrs. Tang is now convinced of the princess and has expressed regret more than once in front of others.

It was inconvenient for Tang Youyin to answer the question.

Mrs. Tang sighed a few words, then quickly cheered up and said: "When you come back this time, stay at home for a few days. You go and rest early, and go to work for the princess early tomorrow."

Tang Youyin responded with a smile.

Speaking of which, the last time I went home was years ago. Tang Youyin returned to the courtyard and got together with his wife and children. He was so happy that there is no need to elaborate.

Tang Youyin's wife, Mrs. Zhu, had an ordinary appearance, was gentle and virtuous, and took the initiative to say to Tang Youyin: "You are working as an errand in the palace, and there must be someone around you to take care of your food, clothing, and daily life. I will choose a young and beautiful maid for you, and show her face." Serve you..."

"No, absolutely not." Before he finished speaking, Tang Youyin waved his hands: "No official in the palace, from Chen Changshi to ordinary petty officials, would take concubines. I heard that the former Qiu Dian Shan was very romantic and had two beautiful concubines, so he was sent away by the princess. "

In fact, Qiu Yuanshang resigned for another reason. However, everyone gossiped in private and felt that the princess did not like Qiu Dianshan. This was one of the important reasons.

Look at Yang Wenxuan, he used to eat, drink and have fun freely, but hasn't he become much more honest in the past two years?

The princess does not like luxury and advocates simplicity. As a minister, it is natural for him to be well-educated.

Seeing that her husband persisted, Mrs. Zhu let it go. In fact, she was very happy. Even an old husband and wife are reluctant to give up their husbands to other women. It's just that the word virtuous is forcing me to do it, so I have to show off.

Tang Youyin smiled and held his wife's hand, and whispered softly: "I work as an errand in the palace, and my children have to be disciplined by you. You also have to take care of the housework and honor your mother for me. It's very hard."

"No matter how extraneous I am, am I still a human being?"

"After I have inspected the fourteen counties with the princess this time, I will take you and the children to the palace."

Mrs. Zhu was surprised and happy: "Is it true? I can also take my child to the palace?"

"Of course." Tang Youyin straightened his chest and finally showed some pride in front of his wife: "Your husband, I am now a capable official in the household, and I have a good reputation in the palace, regardless of whether I am big or small. The princess has rewarded me. Give me the side courtyard, just follow me."
