"Do you want your son to give up the opportunity to enter the county government? Don't you want my Zhou family to restore the lintel? Do you really want to be a merchant!"

Zhou Kang paused in anger, and his eyes showed a look of memories and pain.

The Zhou family was actually a gentry in their early years, but later they fell into business when they were Grandpa Zhou Kang.

Later, the family developed during his father's reign and reached its peak.

A few years ago, the Dayu court was in chaos and the dynasty system was changing and loose.

Zhou Kang followed the way of being a former county magistrate and donated money to win the title of a local sage, which made the Zhou family no longer a simple family of merchants.

But it is impossible to become a gentry again by this, unless someone becomes an official in the court.

However, the iron law that merchants cannot be officials cannot be changed even in the past few years when the government is changing.

This also made Zhou Kang feel discouraged for a while.

Now that his son was named by the county magistrate, Zhou Kang hesitated when he saw that he had the opportunity to enter the official career again.

"After all, it's a chaotic world, and even if we become a gentry, it's useless."

Zhou Kang didn't dare to look at his son's eyes, but he still couldn't bear to leave Zhou Yuan.

If the other party becomes a useless person, his life will be over.

Zhou Ming was very disappointed, but continued to persuade: "Father, this is our opportunity because it is a chaotic era! Otherwise, it would be a peaceful era, and my Zhou family would not have this opportunity!"

"No matter how chaotic the times are, there will be times when they are pacified. Only before this can we become a gentry again. Only when our Zhou family is not discriminated against by others, and our descendants do not need to be inferior to others in their future lives!"

"Father, for the sake of your family, you can't be a woman's kindness!"

At the end, Zhou Ming's expression had changed.

If his father still refuses to agree, he can only summon the clan elders and hold a family meeting to force his father to abdicate.

Zhou Kang's face kept changing, and he finally sighed, "I... agree."

Zhou Ming was overjoyed, "It's great, let's do this matter with my child."

"No!"

Zhou Kang shook his head, "If you attack Yuan'er, it will damage your reputation. Let's do it as your father."

Zhou Ming saw his father's expression was lonely and his eyes were unbearable, "But, will this be too..."

Zhou Kang's pampering Zhou Yuan is too emotionally tormenting if he takes it himself.

In addition to complaining about Zhou Yuan, Zhou Ming still respects his father very much.

“No need!”

Zhou Kang shook his head firmly and said earnestly: "You can get the instructions of County Magistrate Li to enter the county government. This is your blessing. After entering, you should do your best."

"A father will also actively cooperate with the county government and delay relationships to see if you can transfer you to Wuling."

His spirits recovered a little, and a smile finally appeared on his face, "Tomorrow, you need to know that this person not only needs to be capable, but also needs to please Shangguan. Ten things are worse than Shangguan's words!"

"Being a father is not about flattering you or flattering you in the future, but just hope you can do things around the county magistrate. Whether it is meritorious or otherwise, it will be very beneficial to you."

Zhou Ming listened to his father's earnest teachings, the rift in his heart had long disappeared, "Children followed his father's teachings."

Zhou Kang listened to the voice of "Dad" and laughed happily, "Tomorrow I will be my Qilin son, and I will lead my Zhou family to restore the lintel and go to the next level!"

At the end of the Zhou family's convoy, there was a luxurious carriage.
