My Entire Family's Gone Haywire!

Chapter 1200

1200 Duke dingguo’s mansion

The Peng family had already started their preparations.

The game was set for the 25th of December, which meant there were still 20 days to prepare.

At that time, there would be no obstacles, and they would not consider that you were a girl and have to accommodate you.

The top of the mountain was also confirmed. The Peng family sent people over to clear the wild animals on the mountain first, so as to avoid anyone who was alone from encountering a big guy during the activity.

......

At the same time, the Imperial court’s reward came again.

Because the official road from kunzhou to the capital had been repaired and put into use, the Emperor had taken the Grand Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress, as well as dozens of officials of second-rank and above, from the capital to Tongzhou. He felt that it was not bad, so he had given this reward.

From kunzhou to the capital, they had to pass through five state capitals. It used to take a month’s drive, but now it only took 20 days, which saved them a lot of time.

The official road from the capital to Jiangnan had also begun to be repaired. The Ministry of Works had already sent people down to build cement workshops for each state. After the official road was repaired, the common people could buy and repair their houses. This business naturally belonged to the court.

This time, it was for the county Magistrate of kuncheng, Gu shouxin, and the people of the Duke dingguo’s mansion.

The Duke dingguo’s mansion was the Peng family. It was just that their family was not in the capital, but this title of nobility was real.

When Gu Xin heard the news, she laughed at herself. She said that when they were on their way to the capital, brother Yuanyuan had given her and her elder sister a lot of knowledge about the capital’s prestigious families. However, the Peng family was so low-key that she had forgotten that the Duke dingguo’s mansion was their family.

Zhang Shi went back to her room and closed the door, laughing loudly. Oh my God, the Peng family was a public house, and her eldest daughter married the eldest grandson of the Yi family, who inherited the title of nobility!

Mrs. Zhang felt more and more that many of the things Cai Xiaolian had said to her in the past were right. At that time, she didn’t know the identity of the Gu family and thought that it would be enough to find a rich family for Huihui, or a scholar or something. Cai Xiaolian had told her that wasn’t that disparaging Huihui? Huihui would definitely be able to find a better one.

Zhang Shi didn’t believe it at that time, but now, she saw that she was the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Duke dingguo’s mansion!

What she didn’t know was that Cai Xiaolian’s words back then weren’t because she looked down on the elementary scholars or high scholars. She just felt that the people introduced by Madam Zhang were unreliable. Gu Hui was also a person with her own ideas. Moreover, she saw that Gu Hui was still young, so she helped to persuade Madam Zhang.

The emperor’s reward to the Peng family was gold and silver, and the reward for Gu shouxin was a promotion, directly making him the prefect of kunzhou.

In the past, there was only one place in kunzhou, kun city. Now, there were more and more people in kun city. Gu shouxin had also reported his idea of expanding the city and adding a County. The Emperor had agreed, and at the same time, he had also promoted Gu shouxin.

At the same time, he also sent people from the Ministry of Works to build a house for Gu shouxin after the new year, so that Gu shouxin could use the county government first.

As for the position of the Deputy prefect, the Emperor did not care about it at all. He only wanted to promote him to an official position. Back then, they had agreed that Gu shouxin had the final say in kun Prefecture. He would not ask for trouble and meddle in everything!

During the last month of the year, the number of people in kun city didn’t decrease, but instead increased.

The expanded houses outside the city were almost completed. Recently, many merchants from other state capitals had come to ask when they could be sold. The merchants might buy them to live in for themselves, or they might buy them and put them away, and sell them to others in the future to earn money.

There were also people with more solid family backgrounds who came to ask. These were all people who planned to settle down in kun state. There were also people who were originally from kun state but had fled because of the war and had now returned.

In any case, the people in the county government were very busy every day.
