Chapter 31: Bai Zhankui
Duanmu Qingchen looked left and right and lowered his voice, "It's just ...... The kind of ...... that can kill"
The corners of Lianyouyou's lips raised: "That kind is another matter~~ Remember what I said that some people hate deep roots, and the evil obstacles are too strong? Can't even catch the yin? That's what you said. Hearing is false, seeing is believing, Fu Mingrui ......"
Lian Youyou called Fu Mingrui, Fu Mingrui's eyes raised slightly, and inside was the palpitations that had not yet been cleared.
Lian Youyou turned her face and smiled back: "You are looking for me to see Yu Huanting, now, I will take you to meet her." ”
Fu Mingrui slowly came back to her senses and looked at Lian Youyou, her smile back, dyed with the heat of the sun, instantly burned all the cold and palpitations in his heart, like drinking a bowl of scorching ginger soup, making his whole body warm. The heart in his chest was rejuvenated again, and inside his ribcage, thumping. And his gaze could no longer be taken away from Lian Youyou's back.
"Where are we going now?" Duanmu Qingchen asked Lian Youyou, rubbing his arm that was still numb.
Lian Youyou looked ahead, hooked her lips and smiled: "Yu Huanting's husband's family, Baijia Village." ”
The carriage sped forward and headed for Baijia Village.
Baijia Village is Bai Zhankui's hometown, and the whole village has the surname Bai, so it is called Baijia Village.
Bai Zhankui was originally a poor family, and the conditions were the same as most of the villagers in Baijia Village, and he also farmed the land at the beginning of the year, collected grain at the end of the year, and handed it over to the landlord, and there was no surplus in the family, barely making ends meet.
Bai Zhankui has loved reading since he was a child, and Bai Youcai asked his son to learn to farm, but his son was unwilling and went to the private school in the village to eavesdrop. For this reason, Bai Youcai and Chen Jinhua don't know how many times they have scolded Bai Zhankui.
What is the use of saying that reading? Children in the village can't read, and they can't make money after reading, for example, the old Xiucai in the next village will earn some money by writing Spring Festival couplets for everyone during the Chinese New Year, and he can't even plant land, and he can't marry a daughter-in-law for the rest of his life. It's really better to farm and raise chickens, save more money, and marry a daughter-in-law in the village in the future, such as Ah Hua from the next door.
But Bai Zhankui didn't listen, although he was young, he felt that only by reading could he get ahead, and those who were officials had read books. Therefore, he wants to understand one thing, he can become an official by studying.
Although he was born in a poor family, he was extremely arrogant and looked down on the ignorant village women in the village. Like the illiterate Ah Hua in the house next door, he can't look down on it. The wife he wants to marry is a knowledgeable lady like the one written in the book. But with his identity, he wanted to marry someone else's eldest lady, which was really whimsical, and he was laughed at by his father.
Therefore, he knows that to be an official and marry the eldest lady, the only way is to study.
Bai Zhankui is the only son in the family, Bai Youcai and Chen Jinhua scolded and scolded, and they were opposed, but they were still spoiled, so he went.
The teachers in this private school love the most children who are eager to learn. He doesn't love the sons of rich landowners who really should have paid the money, but don't love learning.
Therefore, for Bai Zhankui's study, the teacher in Baijia Village also turned a blind eye. If Bai Zhankui doesn't understand, Mr. Teaching will open a small stove for him. Bai Zhankui's later achievements are all due to the fact that this village teacher gave him a good start.
When Bai Zhankui was twelve years old, Mr. Teaching told the county magistrate of Baijia Village that Baijia Village had never produced a showman, but he felt that Bai Zhankui was a good seedling, and if he could cultivate it, Baijia Village would also be able to show talent.
Baijia Village is on the edge of the capital, and it belongs to the capital. Emperor Cheng emphasized the text, so Baijia Village did not have a talent, and the county officials had no face on their faces. There were a few talents from the next village, and even the county officials were promoted. This is a political achievement!
The county magistrate felt that Mr. Teaching was reasonable, so he also took the test for Bai Zhankui and found that he was really a good seedling. allocated funds to Bai Zhankui to study!
Bai Youcai and Chen Jinhua saw that the county officials funded Bai Zhankui's study, and they actually had money to earn, which was really a big bargain, and they never objected to Bai Zhankui's study since then.
Since then, in addition to their envy of Bai Youcai and his family, other people in the village have secretly said that their Bai Zhankui will definitely not be able to pass the Xiucai examination, and how can Xiucai be so easy to take the exam? At that time, the county officials will definitely be angry with them, and they will have to spit out the subsidized money!
As a result, Bai Zhankui really got in! He even went to study in the town!
The people in the village were envious again, and began to say that there were many talented people in the town, and Bai Zhankui came out of the village, stupid, different from those clever children in the town, and he would definitely come back after reading for a long time.
As a result, Bai Zhankui did come back, but he came back with the eldest lady in the town!
Although on the surface, everyone said that Bai Zhankui was powerful, the pride of their Baijia Village, the only talent in the village, and he married a girl in the town, and his future was limitless. Let the other children in the village learn from Bai Zhankui.
But secretly, a pair of eyes with a sneer stared at the Bai family, just waiting to see the Bai family have an accident, be dilapidated, and then turn back into an ordinary family like them.
When Lianyou's carriage arrived at Baijia Village, it was already the moment when it was handed over to Shen Shi in the afternoon, that is, around four o'clock in the afternoon, nearly dusk.
Lian Youyou looked at the sun and raised her eyebrows, this time is just right.
Her carriage drove into the Baijia Village under the archways, which were all arches of chastity.
The archway of chastity is a respect for women with noble thoughts. But it has been passed down year by year, and with the changes of the times, it has gradually changed its taste. A woman who becomes a widow until she dies without marrying, or who is martyred, is a woman with noble thoughts and high spirits.
If so, then Ma Guanqun's wife can also set up a chastity archway here. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether she was good or bad during her lifetime, as long as she was buried with her husband, she is a good woman.
At the head of the small village, there are few horse-drawn carriages.
When the villagers who came down from the farmland saw such a luxurious carriage, they stopped one after another, or ran to tell each other, wanting to see whose carriage belonged to it, or whose family had such a generous relative.
Here, Lianyou's carriage passed under the archway, and Zhao Cheng and Wang Quan's horses happened to come out of Baijia Village.
Early in the morning, they were ordered by Fu Mingrui to investigate Yu Huanting's suicide in Baijia Village, and they had been inquiring about it in Baijia Village for a whole day.
Fu Mingrui happened to look out the window, and like Duanmu Qingchen, he first absorbed some popularity in order to see the underworld next. He happened to see Zhao Cheng and Wang Quan, and immediately drank: "Zhao Cheng Wang Quan!"
Zhao Cheng Wangquan heard Fu Mingrui's shout and immediately stopped his horse, and saw Fu Mingrui poking his head out of the window of the carriage in front of him.
"Your Excellency!" they were a little surprised. Fu Mingrui asked them to investigate, why did she come back?
