Chapter 1835 The Opportunity Finally Comes
Qiao Xuan didn't say a word. No matter how capable she was, could she turn the entire garden over? Even if she did, it wouldn't matter.
Originally, Qiao Xuan planned to tidy up the garden.
I need to plant more strawberries in a piece of land in the corner. I also plan to plant two trees of dragon fruit, lychee, longan, cherry, passion fruit, lemon and other fruit trees, so that I can have plenty of fresh fruits to eat.
As soon as Guanzhou Cheng's family moved out, Jia Heming's family moved in.
Like Mrs. Guan, Mrs. Jia was dreaming and never imagined that one day she would be able to live in the backyard of the provincial government.
On the day that Madam Jia moved in, she went to the East Courtyard to pay her respects to Qiao Xuan. She was very humble, but she didn't make people feel fawning. She made people feel very comfortable and at ease.
This surprised Qiao Xuan a little. Jia Heming's wife was quite good, much better than Mrs. Guan.
Jia Heming was also happy, he had long wanted to show his skills and make a difference. It was a pity that every governor never thought about staying in this land for a long time, just thinking about how to leave as soon as possible, and of course didn't care about anything here.
As time went by, Jia Heming became disappointed and disheartened, and began to live a life of mediocrity. However, he was still a little different from others, so Guanzhou Cheng always disliked him.
But there was nothing particularly out of the ordinary about him, and Guanzhou Cheng also needed someone like him to do things, so he had no intention of kicking him out.
For Jia Heming, it was impossible for him to leave the government office on his own initiative. What could a landed scholar like him do? This job in the state government office was considered good. Even if he wasted his time doing nothing, it was much better than other jobs.
If you want to find such a job in another government office after leaving Anze Prefecture, you are dreaming.
But deep down, he still wanted to make a career! Unexpectedly, the opportunity finally came.
Jia Heming did not feel uneasy at all about replacing Guanzhou Cheng. For someone like Guanzhou Cheng who had ulterior motives, it was very kind of Lord Shao to keep him in the government office. If it were someone else, he would have been thrown into prison.
This major change in the provincial government made all the major families in Anze Prefecture even more cautious in their words and actions, and no longer dared to underestimate the prefect.
The prefect said that he would clean up Guanzhou Cheng, who had occupied Anze Prefecture for ten years, so what about others?
Some people also laughed at the prefect behind his back, saying that he was too proud and stubborn. If he could drive away someone like Guanzhou Cheng, who else could he rely on? Jia Heming? Who was Jia Heming? I had never heard of him before!
Without the help of Guanzhou Cheng, it is hard to say what will become of Anzezhou.
The leaders of Minjiazhai, Liuhebao and Hutouzhai agreed to meet at Minjiazhai to have a gathering and discuss the grain robbery.
Normally, the issue of grain was not so troublesome in previous years. The government officials and wealthy families in Anze Prefecture were all on the same page. The wealthy families would share the burden themselves, gather the grain together and deliver it to the designated place, and they would send people down the mountain to transport the grain.
Of course, this food was given to them as a gift from the city.
But this year, that ridiculous prefect not only refused to allow the wealthy families in the city to provide them with food, but also issued a ridiculous notice of amnesty, which was so hilarious!
It's so infuriating!
They asked people in the three villages to copy the notice and read it. They felt both amused and angry.
