Chapter 22: Walking with Handsome Guys (4)
Gu Juan always felt a little strange. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wang Kai looked cold to everyone, but why would he say this.
Although Wang Yuanmei was a little surprised, she didn't think much about it and sat down.
At this time, Gu Chongyan opened his mouth and said, "How old is Yuanmei this year?"
"Seventeen. ”
"It's the same age as Lan Jun, but this year it's also the same exam, if both of them are in place, Brother Zi Nan will also have a good name. ”
Wang Cai smiled and said: "My two nominal apprentices are indeed more talented and intelligent than the other. ”
The king had only drunk a few glasses of wine, his head was a little drowsy, and his spirit was a little weak, and the few people talked for a while, and it was a little late. Men can naturally rest in the inn, but a woman like Ah Juan, who has not left the pavilion, naturally wants to go home.
"I'll send my lady home. Wang Yuanmei said.
It's not rude for him to say this, Ah Juan's brother is his father's disciple, and in this case, except for Gu Chongyan, he is the closest to Ah Juan, so it is understandable for him to send it.
Gu Chongyan was helpless for a while, he originally wanted to let Lan Jun send this person back, but since this was the case, his old man's boring thoughts were just that.
"I'll walk with Lan Jun, let's go together. ”
Wang Kai, who had never said much, spoke.
This made the old man's mind a little delicate.
Along the way, Gu Juan was extremely embarrassed, these two young talents were naturally riding horses, Wang Yuanmei was on the left, Wang Kai was on the right, and Gu Juan was in the middle.
Wang Yuanmei on the left knocked on the wall of the car, Gu Juan opened the curtain, and saw Wang Yuanmei said with a smile.
"Can you tell me, lady, why are you here?"
Gu Juan was speechless for a while, and only after a long time did he speak: "It's a long story. ”
"That's a long story short. ”
"Wang Qigong. ”
Wang Yuanmei looked at Wang Kai, who was riding a horse on the side, and said in Gu Juan's ear: "I went home to find someone to find a rare medicinal herb, gave it to Wang Qigong, and gave a letter to the teacher, I know that the teacher has a reason with Wang Qigong, but I never thought that he would have such a relationship with Brother Lan Jun." ”
"I also happened to meet Uncle Gu, and by chance, I did Mr. Zinan a small favor. ”
Wang Yuanmei smiled brightly and said softly: "The lady is really powerful, it seems that I am busy in vain." ”
"I'm lucky, but I still have to thank Childe. ”
"The lady doesn't have to be polite, Wei Jun and I are like brothers, so it is naturally incumbent on us. ”
"Childe doesn't have to call me a lady anymore, just call me Ajuan. ”
It always feels strange to be called by a lady's mother.
Wang Yuanmei smiled softly and said softly, "Okay, Ah Juan." ”
Wang Kai slowed down and turned his head to see such a scene. Between men and women, there is a little ambiguity. Let him have a moment of strangeness.
Gu Juan looked at Wang Yuanmei's smile with some meaning, and suddenly felt that Fang had just exceeded the rules, and hurriedly pulled down the curtain.
For some reason, she felt that the air in the carriage was a little stuffy, and she opened the curtain on the right side, but she happened to meet Wang Kai's turned gaze.
Wang Kai's cold deep eyes narrowed slightly.
Gu Juan didn't know what to say for a while, but at this time, Wang Kai's thin lips opened lightly, and he was about to say something, but was interrupted by a sudden sound of rain.
Gu Juan looked outside and found that the heavy rain that had stopped had stopped had begun to fall again.
"Brother Yuanmei, it's raining, there is a gazebo nearby, where can we go to take shelter?"
"Good. ”
Gu Juan got out of the carriage, and the coachman had already held up his umbrella. Gu Juan looked up and saw only a delicate small pavilion in the middle of the rain curtain.
The rain is a bit troublesome, but I don't know when it will stop.
Although Gu Juan's body looks very thin, it is not bad, but these two sons and brothers are drenched in some rain, and they look slightly embarrassed, although the spring rain in Jiangnan is poignant, but if it is cold, it is not a beautiful thing.
"Are the two sons okay?"
Wang Yuanmei smiled and waved her hand, and said: "Although it is a little cold, the rain and fog here are light, and the green mountains of Lingbo are like heaven and earth, and the mountains and rivers are covered in the earth, but it is also a beautiful scenery. ”
Gu Juan was helpless for a while, are all readers so sour, and they are so poetic when they are drenched in the rain.
Wang Kai didn't speak, but his slightly moist sideburns added a little coldness.
These two are almost the same age, and they are both well-educated people, and at this time, they have nothing to do to shelter from the rain here, so it is naturally a rambling conversation in the style of four books and five classics.
Gu Juan didn't seem to understand it, but it didn't prevent her from appreciating the two beauties.
"The Ming Dynasty has been open for hundreds of years, but now the land annexation of the Jiangnan generation alone is so serious, not to mention the barren land in the northwest. Wang Kai's tone was solemn, but Gu Juan didn't expect this person to think of this weight, as far as Gu Juan knew, including her Uncle Gu, they all felt that this was a peaceful and prosperous time. But I didn't know that this peaceful and prosperous era was actually the afterglow of the setting sun of the glorious Ming Dynasty.
The reforms in the Wanli period only delayed the decline of the country, and the clear stream at the end of the Ming Dynasty and the partisan disputes were actually all appearances, and the increasingly serious land annexation was the reason for the real decline of the Ming Dynasty.
After Wang Yuanmei listened, he didn't speak, the Wang family has many fields in Taicang, and this kind of thing cannot be changed by him.
"Most of the people voluntarily became tenant farmers, and the imperial court exempted most of the officials from servitude, taxes, and artificial benefits, but there is nothing wrong with it. ”
"But in this way, the tax revenue of the imperial court will definitely be affected. How greedy the officials of the Ming Dynasty were, I think Brother Yuanmei also knows. ”
Wang Yuanmei naturally knows that there are many elders in his family who are officials, but it is not a matter of conduct, just because everyone in the officialdom does this, if you choose not to go along with it, you will be excluded from this circle.
Gu Juan, who has always acted as a melon-eating crowd, glanced at Wang Kai, and said in his heart that this guy is still an angry young man, he is really unseemly.
Gu Juan couldn't help but interject.
"Wang Gongzi doesn't have to worry so much, things are man-made, there are so many talented people in Daming, where is the problem, stay well, and you won't run, as long as you think of a way, it will always be solved. ”
Gu Juan's joking words made Wang Kai show a rare shallow smile. Wang Yuanmei also smiled and said: "What Ah Juan said is reasonable, aren't the many injustices in this world just for us to solve?
Wang Yuanmei smiled heartily.
The ice on Wang Kai's face was finally melted by this smile, and he said, "Brother Yuanmei is right, I'm shallow. ”
"I wonder what Lan Jun's ambition in this life is?"
"Only four sentences of Hengqu. ”
