Chapter 42: Mutual Temptation
The second more
Does Old Man An really have nowhere to eat? He has a lot of old protégés, why did he have to go to the home of a poor student with no roots and no foundation to have a New Year's dinner? He should be testing Zeng Fan, and he also believes that this observation has not been interrupted since the April palace examination. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info and went to the house to eat, and entered their family, it should also be an exam.
At this time, he should have regarded Zeng Fan as his own, let him not run around during the New Year, and take his younger brothers to study hard, which has a lot of meaning.
"Has anyone been looking for you to go out to eat, drink, and be merry lately?" Li Ping looked sideways at Zeng Fan.
"No matter how young I am, I am also a gentleman, who dare! But...... Got it, I'll let the third child and Brother Hao be tied to the house. Zeng Fan thought about it and felt as if he knew something.
Although there is no class of teaching, he never asks what the students' families are doing. But who knows if the parents of the students are political enemies of Old Man An. If he does something through Zeng Yi and Brother Hao, he will also follow to eat melons.
I'm afraid that the old man hears something, no matter what, he is the old man's student, this can't be cleaned, his younger brothers, or the old man's ship is waiting.
"Alas!" Although Li Ping also knew that the old man and the old lady had good intentions, she felt very depressed when she thought that she would go to Anjia in the afternoon. The old lady wants to introduce her to connections, which is very important, whether Zeng Fan wants to be promoted in the future, these wives are actually very helpful.
She can stand by the old lady's side, and the wives naturally have to tell their respective masters when they go home, even if Zeng Fan is not serving by the old man's side, the meaning is obvious. At that time, Zeng Fan's road will be a little easier.
Zeng Fan smiled, how could he have imagined that he just worked hard for Li Ping. He really can't say no, he can say no, he just said it, and the old man obviously didn't give him the freedom to say no. He could only hold his wife and walk slowly inside.
The children slept well, and Lilac wanted to take Huang Ge back, but Zeng Fan didn't let them, just let them take off their clothes, cover them with quilts, and let them sleep well. Li Ping didn't stop it, and motioned for Lilac to go back to sleep. Help the kids close the door and go back to the house on their own.
Xiao Shan was really understanding, and had already helped them clean up the bedroom, and also prepared two basins of hot water for them to burn their feet.
Li Ping wants to kiss Xiaoshan, this day, she is running around, she is really tired. If you don't have time to take a bath, it's good to let her soak her tired feet.
"Where's Ding Tong?" Zeng Fan looked left and right, the two large copper basins, plus water, were quite heavy. Xiaoshan sent it in no matter how it was delivered, but it would definitely not be easy to get out for a while.
"Uncle, I'm out there." Ding Tong hurriedly showed his face at the door and took another step back. He is a servant, and he does not greet him, nor can he enter the bedroom where the mistress has it.
At this time, he still looked naïve. But Zeng Fan and Li Ping both knew that this person had never been simple, and they secretly sympathized with Xiao Shan in their hearts, and it was estimated that Xiao Shan thought he was a good person.
Xiao Shan blushed and was a little cramped. He helped to fetch water just now, she was the girl in the inner room, and she originally had to do these things, but Ding Tong took the initiative to come over to help, and now that the uncle and grandmother saw it, they were a little embarrassed.
"You go back to sleep, this water is heavy, let Ding Tong do it." Li Ping waved his hand at Xiao Shan, and Xiao Shan was almost sixteen when he spoke, could Ding Tong have any other movement except for helping with the work.
How could Xiao Shan go, stomped his feet, silently went to get a leg cloth, and waited quietly to the side.
Li Ping was really tired, her feet got into the hot water, and she gasped. One night, she was busy, running before and after serving. She had forgotten what she had eaten for dinner, but she wasn't hungry, and now she just wanted to lie down, and she felt like her waist was going to break.
"What do you think of the An family?" Zeng Fan was also tired, but he still wanted to ask. The old man and the old lady had been here for several hours, and Ding Tong and Xiao Shanke were watching from the sidelines, and he wanted to hear their opinions. Anyway, the angles are also different.
Besides, after having Lin Han's previous incident, he still preferred to believe that Huang Jun and Ding Tong had something to hear from the outside. After his palace test, he also asked Ding Tong and Huang Jun to pay attention to everything in Anfu, what people are in the old man's family, what are his preferences, what are the bad rumors in the family, and so on. If you want to get on someone's ship, you have to know what the captain is like.
After more than half a year, I was afraid that the old man would suddenly appear in front of me one day, and I would be caught off guard. Now it seems that the old man has appeared in the most surprising way.
"No bad reviews." Ding Tong retracted the simple smile he had just now, and still stood outside the door, but when he stood up straight, he spit out three words.
Ding Tong has been with them for many years, Li Ping has told him before, don't hear the news, and you will get into trouble. The old man can do the job of the first assistant, it is not a simple character, don't get close, who knows where there are eyes.
I also said the same thing to Huang Jun, she didn't even say these things to Zeng Yi and Brother Hao, so she didn't mess up them. Huang Jun has already said before that Old Man An has not been black all these years, but it is not bad after all. There is no mess at home, otherwise, I wouldn't dare to promise to go to Anfu tomorrow.
Of course, Ding Tong won't cause trouble with his uncle, but he listened quietly on the periphery, for most of the year, ordinary people don't have the patience, that is, they. It's not useless, but in general, Old Man An has nothing to grasp in terms of personal morality.
"What about Uncle An?" Li Ping opened his mouth, the old man of the Zeng family had only one son, and he was not in the capital, and he didn't let him go back during the New Year, which made people feel a little incomprehensible.
"Uncle An is in charge of the south, and I heard that he is very promising, which makes the old lady proud." Ding Tong lowered his head and replied, thinking about it, "But I heard that Uncle An is rich in the south." ”
Zeng Fan raised his eyebrows, but Li Ping smiled, stretched out his hand and asked Xiaoshan to take the footcloth, wipe it himself, put on his shoes, Zeng Fan saw that she was not soaking, so he wiped his feet and asked Ding Tong to come in and bring the water out.
And Ding Tong ran out, took a bucket in, poured two basins of water into the bucket, and then stacked two basins, holding a bucket in one hand and a basin in the other.
Xiao Shan immediately held him down, snatched the copper basin himself, and squatted on the ground, wiping the ground.
Li Ping held her face and felt that she should find another girl, which is too unruly in everyone. How can you clean things up like this, and the water is still flowing all over the ground.
"Alright, go to sleep, just a little water." Zeng Fan didn't care about this, and waved his hand, Xiao Shan could only laugh out.
But Zeng Fan was finally relieved, Xiaoshan and Ding Tong obviously don't have to worry about it, Ding Tong has already put Xiaoshan into the net, he will be synchronized with Li Ping, and he has to find a girl. Obviously, Xiaoshan can't do it for long.
