Looking at the two masters and servants who were gradually approaching, Qian Yingming stopped a little inexplicably. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Feng Shuzhi he naturally recognized.
But his eyes were fixed on Xiao Yezi, who was following Feng Shuzhi.
Not long ago, he had met Xiao Yezi once - early that morning, Xiao Yezi came to deliver a message for Yinglian Mansion, and asked Ding Ziyu to temporarily replace the gentleman Feng Shuzhi originally invited to take charge of Feng Shuzhi's schoolwork.
Feng Shuzhi and Xiao Yezi noticed each other's gaze, raised their heads and saw that it was Qian Yingming, so Feng Shuzhi greeted politely: "Mr. Qian." ”
Although his impression of Qian Yingming is not good, he remembers that when Feng Jiwen was in distress on the outskirts of the city before, Qian Yingming, who happened to be passing by, had helped, just because of this stubble, his attitude towards Qian Yingming has always been polite.
On the contrary, it was Qian Yingming who raised his head quite arrogantly and said "um" disapprovingly.
Feng Shuzhi had already seen the surprise, and he didn't take it to heart, so he only took Xiao Yezi to pass by Qian Yingming.
After the two walked a little farther, Qian Yingming turned his head to look at the backs of the two.
He didn't know what he was thinking, and the look in his eyes flickered.
At this moment, a hurried footsteps were heard, and a child's shout: "Don't run......"
In his sight, there was a snow-white cat running past Qian Yingming's eyes.
Qian Yingming came back to his senses and was about to take a look, but he felt that someone suddenly hit him his knee.
"Little master!"
The maid trotted over.
Qian Yingming looked at the boy who was sitting on the ground because he hit him, and subconsciously wanted to bend down to help.
But when he was about to stretch out his hand, his face suddenly changed.
He knew the boy.
"Little Master...... Where did you fall?" asked the maid who had arrived as she lifted the boy up and looked nervous.
The boy shook his head, did not answer her words, only raised his head to look at Qian Yingming with a little weakness, and saw that Qian Yingming's face was gloomy, and he became even more timid for a while, shrunk his neck, and whispered: "...... Yes, I'm sorry......"
He was only thinking about chasing the cat, and he didn't notice that there was anyone in front of him.
Qian Yingming snorted coldly, his voice was frighteningly cold: "Don't you look at the road?"
Although he was a little thin, his body was tall, and he looked like he was about to have a seizure, and the child was only six or seven years old, and he was already extremely timid, and when he looked up at him so much, he was so frightened that he cried out with a "wow".
Qian Yingming's face became even more ugly for a while.
The maid glanced at him, and was also a little scared, and a little unhappy in her heart, but in the end, it was not in her own house, and it was the little young master who hit people first, so she didn't dare to say anything for a while, so she only pulled the crying boy and hurriedly left here.
Qian Yingming stood in place, his face was gloomy as water, and the green tendons on his tightly clenched fists looked shocking.
"Being so aggressive with a child is really a model for a reader. ”
Qian Yingming raised his eyes when he heard this, and saw that about ten steps away, there was a maid dressed in lilac purple armor and holding a black lacquer tray in her hand, with a pair of eyes full of sarcasm and disdain on her calm face.
Qian Yingming recognized that this was the big girl Xiaoxing next to Feng Jiwen.
Several times they met, she looked at herself almost the same way, but this time it was even worse.
The two also had a quarrel, on the night when he was plotted and seriously injured and came to the house.
At this moment, facing such a pair of eyes, the anger in Qian Yingming's heart was a hundred times greater than usual.
He struggled to control the churning emotions inside him.
"Am I aggressive?" he sneered, almost gritting his teeth and said: "You don't know the truth of the matter itself, just by the superficial appearance you see at a glance, you can judge me right or wrong, and where can you be noble!"
Xiao Xing was suddenly displeased when he heard this.
What does it mean to be superficial based on what she sees at a glance?
"I naturally believe what I see. She looked at Qian Yingming, who was surging in her eyes, and her eyebrows were full of ridicule.
Qian Yingming didn't know what he was thinking, and when he heard this, he suddenly raised his head and laughed.
"I don't need you to judge how I do things!"
He said in a low voice, and after one last glance at Xiao Xing, he brushed his sleeves and turned to leave.
Xiao Xing looked at his back as he strode away, and frowned slightly.
She suddenly felt very puzzled, what kind of living environment can create Qian Yingming's temperament?
……
When Jin Yiyu arrived, the banquet had already begun.
He Shen sent Liu Quan to Jin's house to inquire an hour ago, but learned that Jin Yiyu went out early in the morning, but for some reason he still hasn't gone to the house for a banquet.
I couldn't find anyone in Hengzhi, and it was close to noon, so it was not good to let the guests wait, so I had to open the table first.
Unexpectedly, half of the dishes here came up, but Jin Yiyu came with his subordinates.
Jin Yiyu didn't elaborate on the reason why he was late, but said that there was something delayed on the road, and he punished himself three glasses to apologize.
Everyone here did not blame it, and a few words of the scene helped to play a dozen rounds, and the matter was revealed.
After a banquet, everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, did not discuss the government and official affairs, from the poems and songs to the parents, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
Especially Feng Yinglian and Yuan Mei, the two of them talked happily about wine, and their smiles never disappeared from their faces.
Qian Yingming was the only one, sitting there, never saying a word, not even touching the dishes a few times, like an outsider.
He is so exceptional, it is inevitable that someone will inadvertently look at him more.
The more this happened, the more unpleasant his face became.
He always felt that except for Ding Ziyu, these people who were not rich or noble, everyone looked at him with strange eyes.
Is it because of his shabby clothes, coupled with his previous act of suing in front of the emperor?
Qian Yingming picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all.
Seeing that he was eating and drinking alone, Ding Ziyu, who had always felt that something was wrong with him, asked in a low voice, "Brother Qian, does you have something on your mind?"
Qian Yingming didn't answer his words, as if he hadn't listened.
Ding Ziyu understood his temperament, and when he saw this, he didn't ask more.
……
On the women's side, it ended a little earlier than the men's seats.
Feng Jiwen invited several ladies to the side hall for tea, but Mrs. Wang Jie did not follow, but took the little young master Wang Yunkang back to the house early.
The little master of the Wang family was injured in the house today, although he only scratched his palm, and he had already let the maid clean up and take medicine, but his spirit has not been very good, he looked frightened, and he didn't eat a few bites of food, Mrs. Wang Jie was really relieved, so she took the child back first.
After all, it happened in her own family, Feng Jiwen felt a little guilty, and after sending the other two ladies away, she told the maid to go to the front yard to ask if anyone knew how the little young master of the Wang family was injured today.
The maid of the Wang family only said that her little master accidentally fell when chasing the snow.
But if this is the case, you should not be scared into this way.
Xiao Xing listened to Feng Jiwen tell Xiao Xian, thinking that he had witnessed what had happened, so he wanted to open his mouth to Feng Jiwen.
However, for some reason, when the words came to his lips, Qian Yingming's expression at that time suddenly flashed in his mind, as well as his strange statement that he had to excuse himself even if he seemed to have done something wrong-
Maybe it's thinking that it's not a big deal in the end, there is no need to say it to let the wife add to the blockage, or for any other reason, Xiao Xing didn't say much in the end.
At that time, no one else was present except her, so as expected, Xiaoxian didn't inquire about anything.
Feng Jiwen didn't pay too much attention to it, but she still instructed the maid to prepare some snacks that the children love to eat early tomorrow morning to go to the Wang family, which can be regarded as the attitude that the master should have.
"Are all the guests in the front yard gone?" she casually asked Xiaoxian, who had just returned from the front yard.
"Mr. Yuan and Steward Qin are both drunk and have already gone back. The second son of Jin went to the courtyard of the second master with the third master of Fu to visit the second master, and the old lady was training the little uncle in the front hall at this time. Xiaoxian said with a smile.
"What are you talking about?" asked Feng Jiwen.
"It's said that the little uncle didn't talk to the uncle well. Xiaoxian said with a smile: "At this moment, I am training my little uncle, and at the same time talking about my uncle's good son-"
Feng Jiwen laughed when she heard this.
Shu Zhi, this kid is very stubborn, and he has a belly of prejudice against Heshen, and it is not easy for her to be soft and hard, not to mention talking to Heshen for a long time, even if he shouts "brother-in-law", he mostly has a wooden face.
Grandfather was right.
"What about the uncle?" Feng Jiwen asked again: "You also went to the second master's courtyard?"
"The slave didn't see the uncle. Xiaoxian shook his head: "I don't know where I went." ”
Feng Jiwen was about to say something more, but she heard the little tea who was guarding outside and said that the uncle was back.
It's really Cao Cao, Cao Cao.
He Shen, who was dressed in a navy blue straight jacket, walked in, with a smile like a spring breeze on his handsome face, and when he saw Feng Jiwen sitting in the hall again, it was even more unabated.
"Ma'am. He called out with a smile and sat down in the seat next to Feng Jiwen.
Feng Jiwen looked at him and made sure he wasn't drunk.
Last time, when he had just received the will to be promoted, he brought two jars of wine to Yinglian Mansion, and he and his grandfather were drunk.
"Mrs. Hui asked her subordinates to clean up the East Cross Courtyard for the time being. He Shen took the tea handed by the maid and said softly to Feng Jiwen.
Feng Jiwen asked suspiciously, "Clean up the East Cross Courtyard... What are you going to do with it?"
Is it possible that guests are going to stay in the family for a long time?
"Leave it to Mr. Ding and Mr. Qian to live temporarily. ”
Feng Jiwen was even more surprised.
This time, before she could open her mouth to ask again, He Shen said: "Now that I am the secretary of the Criminal Department, I still have to be in charge of the Guangchu Department of the Internal Affairs Department, and there is also the tax customs of Chongwenmen at the other end, these are all sloppy errands, not to mention the holy oracle of chasing down the remnants of the White Lotus Sect - all this, even if I have three heads and six arms, it is indeed not easy to take care of them all." ”
In addition, it is now at the time when he has just taken over, and he is the most negligent.
When Feng Jiwen heard this, she roughly understood what he meant.
Sure enough, I immediately listened to He Shen speak: "Therefore, I plan to recruit Mr. Ding and Mr. Qian to live at home temporarily and help me as a director." ”
Feng Jiwen had already guessed his intentions, but she was still a little surprised to hear him say it.
This obviously means that Ding Ziyu and Qian Yingming will be hired as staff.
Recruiting staff is not a new thing, and the officials of the provinces and domains inside and outside the capital, who have not had one or two people behind them.
He may not be able to use it for advice, but some trivial and miscellaneous official documents are piled up, and it is indeed not something he can be busy with alone.
But what really made Feng Jiwen incomprehensible was ...... "Mr. Ding is thoughtful, knowledgeable, and generous, but he is a usable talent." But Mr. Qian's temperament, I'm afraid it's a little wrong, right?" There are no outsiders here, and she doesn't shy away from her opinions.
She is not biased against Qian Yingming, but in terms of objective facts.
Not only Feng Jiwen, but also Qin Yan and a few maids standing on the side also felt that recruiting Qian Yingming was a 'lower strategy'.
He Shen said with a smile: "As the saying goes, make the best use of things, and take what you need - Mr. Qian's temperament is a little strong, and he is very stubborn, and it is difficult to listen to the opinions of others, but he also has strengths that others do not have, and he can complement Mr. Ding's strengths and weaknesses." ”
He has his own reasons for employing people.
Although Qian Yingming is too tough, once such a person is used by you, he will definitely do his best, never be ambiguous, and will never play with you in private, and use means - because this is what he disdains.
Speaking of which, it's still one point - only those who know the roots can use it with peace of mind.
When Feng Jiwen was thinking about it, she heard him add again: "I didn't think of inviting Mr. Ding and Mr. Qian before, but when I talked about this matter with my father-in-law last time, I was reminded by him. ”
Feng Jiwen was stunned when she heard this.
Grandfather also thinks that money should be available?
One is a lot of hearts and eyes, and the other is an 'old fritter' who has been in the officialdom for many years, since these two people said that there was no problem, then she, a layman, would not express any opinions.
It was Feng Jiwen who only asked, "Mr. Nading and both of them agreed?"
Ding Ziyu would promise her not to think anything, but how did Qian Yingming bow his waist?
Mr. Qian was a little hesitant at first, but then under Mr. Ding's persuasion, he also nodded. ”
Qian Yingming's life is extremely embarrassing now.
His 'reputation' spread as early as when he sued the emperor, and if he wanted to meet a second person like He Shen who was willing to use him, he was afraid that looking at the capital would be tantamount to an idiot's dream, not to mention that He Shen is now an official residence, which is not comparable to ordinary officials.
The remuneration offered is naturally beyond the reach of Qian Yingming at present.
The situation of not bending his waist for five buckets of rice is real, but now the crux of the problem is that he is about to be 'hungry' by reality and can't straighten his waist.
And what He Shen gave him was far more than just filling his stomach.
Qian Yingming naturally has his own considerations.
After failing in the imperial examination, he often wondered if there was any other way for him to achieve his wish as soon as possible.
If the outcome is the same, then he doesn't mind going the other way.
Because of this, he had to do it......
