Farmhouse Green Plum

Chapter 459 Conditions

Being able to use money to smooth over relationships can certainly help you get a job, but what about the future?

The government office was complicated and entangled, and he was the son of a farmer with no connections. It was inevitable that he would be bullied by everyone, let alone plan for a lucrative promotion in the future.

If I can climb up to the big tree of Master Zhang through my cousin, even if I can only get a small job at first, the people in the yamen will look at me with respect, and my life will be easy!

Song Tian explained all the interests to Li, who was very surprised. "Is your cousin really that powerful?"

To be honest, she was a little disillusioned this time. She thought that no matter how capable her granddaughter was, she was just a doctor, and her eldest grandson worked in the government office and was a government official. She didn't expect that her eldest grandson had to rely on her granddaughter for help, and now he even said that he would have to rely on her in the future.

Song Tian nodded, "Anyway, grandma, you just have to listen to me. I'll talk to her myself, so don't annoy her."

After explaining everything, Song Tian walked out and begged again in a nice way.

Song Ying glanced at Li who had stopped talking, and said slowly, "I can help you, but there is one condition."

Li was about to start scolding him, but when she thought of her grandson's instructions, she held back and decided to listen first.

Song Ying looked at Li and said, "You can't interfere in my marriage."

Li's forehead twitched, and she couldn't help but speak, "If we don't interfere, then who will take care of your marriage? Do you want to make the decision yourself? Since ancient times, marriage has been decided by parents and matchmakers, and you don't have to worry about being laughed at if you tell others about it."

At least she held back her anger and didn't say anything harsh.

"Just you guys make the decision openly." Song Ying already had an idea. The Yang family's marriage made her realize that the Li family would not consider her interests at all when choosing a marriage partner. This was a big hidden danger. She had to get the right to decide on her own marriage so as not to be controlled by them.

Li's face was very ugly. "You really want to make the decision yourself! You are so shameless! I have long said that Wang Suqing is a vixen, but that short-lived kid refused to believe it. Now look, he gave birth to a girl with the same character as her, without any sense of shame..."

She finally couldn't help herself and started cursing.

Song Tian was so anxious, "Grandma, we already agreed on this just now, why are you scolding my cousin again?"

"You are young and don't understand. We can't let her do this. This concerns our entire Song family!" Li stretched out her hand to push him away, and continued to scold Song Ying and Song Ying's mother, "Wang Suqing gave birth to a good daughter, but she hasn't even reached the age of marriage yet, and she's already married off to her husband's family every day..."

"I also have half Song family blood in me. If I am shameless, it is also half due to the Song family blood!" Song Ying sneered and said, pulling the subject back, "Stop talking about these nonsense, just say whether you agree or not."

Seeing that she remained motionless, neither angry nor embarrassed, and looked unmoved, Yang became anxious and interrupted, "Yingwa, let me be fair. This matter really cannot be left to you. You are young and ignorant, and it is easy for you to be fooled.

Marriage is a major event in life, especially for girls. Do you have someone you like? Tell us about it and we can see if it’s a good match. "

"Stop insinuating that I'm messing around. I want to decide my own marriage, purely because I'm worried about you guys."

This was said very bluntly and bluntly, and Yang immediately lost her temper. "Who are you implying? You are a woman with many thoughts. I am just asking a question."

Song Ying sneered and brought the topic back again: "I said, there is no need to talk about this and that, it is useless. My conditions are here. If you agree, I will help Song Tian. If you don't agree, I won't help. It's that simple!"

After saying that, she stopped talking. No matter what Yang said or how Li scolded her, she just sneered and remained silent.

Song Tian had no choice but to turn to Li and ask, "Grandma, just agree. I will become an official, and our family will be an official family. Don't think that I am doing well in school now, but I am not sure whether I can pass the exam.

I think it's hard for him to become a student, let alone a scholar. Moreover, only candidates who pass the imperial examination are qualified to become officials. Even if he passes the imperial examination, he will most likely be a poor scholar and will not be able to achieve great things. Our family will have to rely on me in the future."

Song Yuan didn't like what he heard, and said, "What's wrong with a scholar? A scholar is also a serious scholar. As long as he is ambitious, he will not be poor! You are a constable, and you look down on scholars!

In your situation, even if you get a job, you will most likely be a yamen runner, which is a lowly position. Your descendants for three generations will not be able to take the imperial examinations! You still look down on me, but I am a scholar!"

"Who said I want to be a yamen runner? I just want my cousin to help me find a clerk!" This is exactly why Song Tian must use Song Ying's relationship and the reason why Master Zhang is on the list.

There are also good and bad jobs in the government. No, it should be said that there is a world of difference.

There were three ways to become an official in the Daqian Dynasty: Jinshi, Jugong, and Liyuan.

In the early days of the founding of Daqian, there were many people who came from clerks and became high-ranking officials; later, the imperial court attached great importance to imperial examinations and stipulated that censors and county officials could not be selected from clerks; later on, not only clerks, but also people who came from imperial examinations found it difficult to rise to the top without great merits.

But no matter what, clerks are also officials!

If you become a yamen runner, you will be classified as a lowly person. Although you can act very powerful in front of the common people on weekdays, it will still have a great impact on your descendants.

Of course, if there is really no other way, he is willing to do it.

On the surface, they are of low status, but they are very powerful when dealing with the poor people. At least they are much better than the current white laborers.

Li and others had no idea of this. They just thought that all the people in the yamen were police officers who should not be provoked. After listening to the argument between their two grandsons, they finally understood the importance of this matter. If Song Tian really became a so-called official, the Song family would have truly reached a new level and it would be a matter of honor for the family.

He said something right. Although Song Yuan is still young and studying, it is still uncertain whether he can read well or not.

Naturally, we cannot miss such an opportunity to change the fate of our family!

Li said immediately: "Okay, I'll agree to your request! You don't know what's good for you. I won't be involved in your marriage in the future. I won't care what kind of family your child will find in the future! Whether you eat bran or eat dragon liver and phoenix gall, I won't care..."

Song Ying ignored her scolding and breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of the shackles.

After Li had scolded enough, she said doubtfully, "Grandma, you guys keep your word, right? Don't cheat after I've done it for you."

Li was furious and wanted to scold again, but Song Ying spoke again: "Forget it, it doesn't matter. Since I can find him a job, I can naturally get rid of his job."

Li was so angry that she couldn't speak.
