Chapter 192 Guangzong Yaozu
Su Qingshan held his head high, showing off with a proud look on his face.
It was as if he was the one who received the reward!
Aunt Zhang’s eyes widened!
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty rewarded Yue'er?!"
Your Majesty! A legendary figure that they had only heard of in fairy tales in their lives!
He actually rewarded Yue'er!
Aunt Xu's breathing also stagnated.
“This is a great honor!”
Su Qingshan was still not satisfied and snorted.
"Not only that! Yue'er is now a talented person personally appointed by His Majesty! Ninth rank!"
The two were confused by what they heard.
"Saito?"
"Ninth grade?"
Su Qingshan explained patiently.
"The rank is the same as that of the county magistrate!"
The county magistrate is just a ninth-rank official.
Su Jiuyue smiled helplessly.
Since she was named a talented woman, she has also made special research on the uniforms of Xia State officials.
It is similar to ancient China.
She, a ninth-rank talented woman, and a ninth-rank county magistrate, sounded like they were of the same rank.
Far from it, actually.
The ninth-rank county magistrate is in charge of an area and has real power.
However, her title of Ninth Rank Talented Lady was just an empty title. Apart from the title bestowed upon her by His Majesty herself, she had nothing else to show for herself.
It’s just that there are too few women serving as officials in this era.
Only women who have made outstanding contributions will be rewarded as an exception.
Female officials were relatively scarce, so Yishan County was so shocked that she was conferred the title of a talented woman.
But the two aunts don’t understand this!
They have never left Xinghua Village in their entire lives, and the highest-ranking official they have ever met is the village head!
This time he is His Majesty and he personally conferred the title on him.
It has already made them dizzy!
"What? His Majesty gave Yue'er an official title!"
"Oh my god! I must be dreaming! He's an official as high-ranking as the county magistrate!!!"
The two aunts exclaimed!
There's smoke coming out of the Su family's ancestral grave!
Su Jiuyue waved her hands and was about to explain.
"No... not that..."
The door was suddenly pushed open!
Su Maolin rushed to Su Jiuyue and held Su Jiuyue's arm excitedly!
"Yueyue! What they said is true!"
"You have been appointed an official by His Majesty?!"
"Really?! As high-ranking an official as the county magistrate!!!"
This is the top priority at any time!
Su Maolin was so excited that he couldn't stop shaking!
Their Su family is about to produce a female official who is unprecedented and unrivaled!
It has been many years since Yishan County has produced a female official!
Seeing Su Maolin so excited, Su Jiuyue shut up in disappointment.
Never mind, let the old man be happy.
"Yes, Grandpa, she is a talented lady appointed by His Majesty himself."
Su Jiuyue softened her tone, but her voice couldn't stop rising!
When Su Maolin heard Yueyue’s admission, he almost burst into tears!
"Really... it's true! This is true!"
Seeing his look, Su Jiuyue couldn't help but say something.
"We are just of the same rank. The county magistrate has much more power than me. I just have a title at best!"
Su Maolin let go of Su Jiuyue and said seriously.
"So what! That's also the greatest honor! No... I have to inform the elders and the head of the village..."
Su Maolin muttered to himself and paced outside.
"This is a big happy event, we have to have a feast to celebrate! Yes, we have to invite the elders to dinner today, this is a big event to bring honor to our family..."
"I have to tell the eldest, second, and third brothers to come back quickly..."
Su Maolin disappeared at the gate of the courtyard as if he had lost his soul.
Su Jiuyue and Su Qingshan looked at each other and gave each other a helpless look.
It was just in time, so the two aunts said goodbye and left in a hurry.
Such a big thing! They must publicize it!
The Su family is in great shape now!
Su Jiuyue looked at the empty yard and was in a trance for a moment.
"Grandpa Su, you haven't told me why you are here."
Su Qingshan curled his lips.
"I just want to get away to some quiet time. Those people would rather stay here and come to this broken county town to cause trouble for me. It's really annoying!"
It's all that old man's fault!
You must mention him in the temple!
I just don't want him to have peace!
These noble families all have sharp noses and are good at guessing the emperor's intentions!
He did it on purpose! ! !
Last time, Su Qingshan was annoyed by the boy from aristocratic family and had to hide away, so Su Jiuyue didn't ask any more questions.
She could guess that Grandpa Su was not a simple person.
But he was very nice to me and had no ill will towards me.
Just live if you want!
"By the way, where is my dad? And my uncle, my third uncle, and my third aunt, why aren't they at home?"
Su Qingshan spoke weakly.
"No one came to sell crayfish, and you can't cut off the supply, so they divided the work and went to the nearby villages to collect them."
"Where do you think so many shrimps come from every day?"
This damn dog days of summer is so hot!
Su Jiuyue thought to herself, no wonder.
No wonder shrimps are still in plentiful supply these days.
It turns out that they were the ones who were thinking of something behind the scenes.
It seems like Suwei needs to serve some new dishes. It may not be able to sustain itself relying solely on crayfish.
"Grandpa Su, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go cook."
When Su Qingshan heard that Su Jiuyue wanted to cook, his eyes lit up immediately!
"Okay! Okay, okay! Leave me alone and go cook!"
"I want to eat braised pork, steamed spareribs with rice flour, eight-treasure duck, minced meat and eggplant..."
After a long list of dishes were announced, Su Jiuyue's mouth twitched.
He ran into the kitchen as if escaping.
The kitchen was cleaned very cleanly by Zhou.
Su Jiuyue planned a few dishes and started to get busy.
Grandpa said he wanted to invite the elders of the clan to dinner, so she prepared a total of sixteen dishes.
There are both meat and vegetables, especially the ones that Grandpa Su specifically ordered, none of them are left out!
The fragrance of vegetables filled the garden, and Su Qingshan swallowed his saliva again and again!
I couldn't stop glancing at the kitchen!
The dishes Yue'er cooks are so delicious! Haha!
He will definitely eat a lot later!
The elders of the Su family also surrounded Su Qingshan and entered the yard.
"Congratulations! Congratulations!"
"Our Su family has made great progress! We have a ninth-rank female official! Incredible! Incredible!"
"Where's Yue'er! Where's Yue'er! Come with us to the ancestral hall to burn some incense!"
"It smells so good! Yue'er must be cooking!"
The aroma penetrated into their nasal cavities and invaded their brains!
There was another round of praise.
"Hello Yue'er! She never forgets her roots! Even though she is a ninth-rank talent, she still cooks for us old guys in person!"
"Yue'er is a very filial child..."
The praises made Su Qingshan feel like he was in the clouds, floating in the air.
When had I ever been so prestigious and valued in the clan?
It’s all thanks to Yue’er!
After the meal was ready, Su Jiuyue was dragged to the ancestral hall by the old patriarch, where she respectfully lit three incense sticks and kowtowed several times.
My uncle and his family also came back one after another.
Su Quanzhong, in particular, had tears in his eyes when he heard about his daughter's great abilities!
Su Quanzhong's eyes flickered, as if he was worried about something.
Everyone started eating only after Su Jiuyue came back!
During the meal, everyone praised Su Jiuyue's cooking skills!
"It's delicious! No wonder Yue'er can make a lot of money! Her cooking skills are amazing!"
"Smells so good! Delicious! So delicious!!!"
“This craft is absolutely amazing!”
To flatter, to congratulate, and to feel proud of it!
The meal didn't finish until dark.
Su Jiuyue and Zhou were cleaning up the dishes.
Su Quanzhong walked up to Su Jiuyue and whispered.
"Yue'er, come here, I... have something to discuss with you..."
