Zhen Niang didn't care much about Zeng Yipin's entanglement, and in the past two days, she sorted out some ink lists, prepared to find her second cousin, and then went to visit Zhao Jiaoyu together to prepare for ink donation.

In the light rain, Zhenniang held an oil-paper umbrella, stepped on wooden shoes, and took the little girl all the way to the aunt's house on Sanshan Street.

Now is the season of harvesting silk, and my aunt's family is very busy on weekdays, but today because of the rain, my aunt's family is rarely nested at home.

"Zhenniang, come, sit, but I haven't seen you here for a few days, how is it? How is business doing in the store? As soon as Zhenniang entered the door, my aunt asked enthusiastically.

"It's okay, but the mid-to-high-end ink has not been sold, no, I'm here to ask my second cousin for help." Zhen Niang explained the chapter.

"Cheng, if you have something to think of your second cousin, it couldn't be better." As soon as she heard that she was looking for Han Bai, Han Li smiled and quickly asked her subordinates to invite, Zhen Niang looked at Han Li like that, and couldn't help but stroke her forehead secretly, it seems that it is better to come back to find the second cousin less, and she can't let her aunt misunderstand.

Although in this era, cousins and sisters are the most suitable for marriage, but for Zhenniang, even if their personalities are incompatible, cousins and sisters are close relatives and cannot get married.

However, there is no need to deliberately explain this kind of thing, and there will be fewer interactions in the future, and everyone will know it. Deliberate explanations will make everyone unhappy.

Zhen Niang sat down and accompanied Han Li and the Han family's sister-in-law to chat a few words.

After a while, Han Bai came over.

"Bo'er, your cousin is here. Take him to the back garden. It's raining a little today. Just to enjoy the new lotus in the backyard pond. "Han Li wants to create a chance for the two to get along.

Zhenniang didn't say much, it was okay to go to the backyard, just to talk about donating ink.

Han Bai smiled and nodded, and then led Zhenniang to the back garden, and the two of them were silent all the way. Originally, although Zhenniang didn't get along much with Han Bai, she opened her business last time. Han Bai took people to the party, and the two brothers and sisters got along with each other, but just now, Han Li's deliberately did it, coupled with that meaningful expression, which made the atmosphere a little embarrassing.

So the two of them were silent all the way to the stop in the backyard, the two girls had already fallen first, and Zhenniang sat down with Han Bai. The two girls served tea, the new tea of the season. Before the rain, the new eyebrows are a variety of Huangshan Maofeng, the teeth are very small, very tender, rolling in the boiling water, just like the elf jumping up and down in the water, Zhen Niang first picked up the water and smelled it, it is a refreshing fragrance, the hot water of the tea is steaming, and it is like a poetic mist in the rain and twilight.

The two girls served the tea, went down, and stood far away, obviously the aunt had specially ordered it, and Zhenniang patted her forehead a little helplessly.

"Ahem, I'm ......" Han Bai frowned, and his words were slurred, as if he was organizing the language, that expression, how could Zhen Niang not understand, I am afraid that Han Bai was also unintentional to himself, so, the two of them thought about it for a while.

Han Bai was afraid that he would hurt her and would not be able to speak, but Zhenniang didn't care, so he said first: "Second cousin, I don't think we are suitable." ”

Hearing Zhenniang say this, Han Bai breathed a sigh of relief, and responded with a smile: "As my sister said, we are not very suitable." Then Han Bai asked curiously: "Sister Weishenme thinks we are not suitable?" ”

"My identity, a businesswoman, is still in charge, and it is inevitable to show up and do something that is not quite in line with the boudoir girl, the second cousin is a scholar, or a reader with ideas, although the second cousin may not be willing to marry an official girl as my aunt thinks, but I will inevitably gossip." Zhen Niang said.

Unexpectedly, Han Bai laughed when he heard Zhen Niang's words: "No wonder my mother used to have a bad impression of you, saying that there are always a lot of twists and turns in your head, and your mind is too heavy, and this is indeed the case." ”

"Isn't that so?" Zhenniang raised her eyebrows, a little angry.

"Of course not, think about it, the two of us are relatives, if I really have such thoughts, how can my father and your second aunt want us to have a relationship. My own family is a businessman, and even more, in Huizhou, the first-class industry is a businessman. Han Bai retorted angrily, this girl is really thoughtful.

When Zhen Niang called Han Bai to say this, her face was scolded for a while, but she really thought too much, this is the future world to understand the mistakes made by the previous life, looking at Han Bai with a happy and teasing look, Zhen Niang said angrily: "Oh, I know, it turns out that the second cousin has a sweetheart, so I will talk to my aunt." ”

"Cousin, cousin, cousin forgive." Han Bai was startled, quickly stood up, and bowed towards Zhen Niang.

Zhenniang was actually just talking casually, but seeing Han Bai like this, she obviously called herself a word, so she was also a little curious: "Which girl is it, why didn't the second cousin find someone to come to the door to talk to the matchmaker." ”

"Alas, it's difficult, King Xiang has a dream, and the goddess is ruthless, don't mention these." Han Bai sighed, looking a little distracted

Dare to love whether it is a second cousin or unrequited love, Zhenniang is enlightened, but she doesn't say anything.

Then he changed the topic and talked about the meaning.

"This donation of ink is a good thing, I will accompany you to Zhaojiaoyu's house for a walk, I think there is no problem, but if you want to donate to poor students, I am afraid that it will not work." Listening to Zhen Niang's intention, Han Bai thought about it.

“weishenme？” Zhenniang is strange, there are many poor students, and someone sponsors them to study, isn't it a good thing?

"What you said before is not right for me, but it also makes sense in most students, if my cousin is the family of an official, then the funding is a beautiful talk, but my cousin is a businessman and a woman in charge, so no matter how poor and a little backbone is, I don't want to accept it." Han Bai explained.

Ni Mei's, sure enough, it was Chi Guoguo's discrimination, Zhen Niang twisted her eyebrows, she was really a little angry, thinking that forget it, she didn't need to take the money out to stick other people's cold faces, but, if you think so, business is not a matter of willfulness after all.

I thought about it: "But when Li Mo opened his business last time, those students wrote poems and essays, didn't they also receive gifts, why don't you think that the Li family is a businessman, and I am a woman in charge?" Zhenniang asked.

"So what's the same, if you donate to support your education, others will accept your kindness, and they will have to pay it back in the future. And when you wrote an essay last time you opened, you also said that it was gift money, and the gift money was what they deserved, as if many literati also went to help prostitutes write and fill in the words, and what they got was also gift money, which is considered an elegant thing. Han Bai said.

Han Bai said this, Zhen Niang understood, that is to say, her identity is not qualified enough to donate to education.

"What if I swapped this donation for a gift money?" After thinking for a while, Zhen Niang asked rhetorically.

"Tell me." Han Bai didn't quite know Zhenniang's specific thoughts, so he asked.

"Doesn't your college have a literary exam every year, but in the future, if the top three in the literary exam, my Li family will set up a Xuanyu gift money for longevity, and the top three can get different gift money and pen, ink, paper and inkstone." Zhen Niang said, needless to say, at this time she moved out of the scholarship of the later generations.

In fact, this kind of gift money is also available in this era, but it is not the usual literary examination, but the leader of the three university examinations, the government examination, the township examination and the examination, especially the examination, the Jinshi and the first, as soon as the list is out, how many merchants stay under the list, and when the money and women are smashed, the people who can be smashed are dizzy.

However, Zhen Niang's longevity Xuanyu gift money is to form a routine in the academy, as long as the longevity Xuanyu gift money is there in the future, then her Li Mo's fame is there, this is advertising.

"Well, this method will work, let's go to Zhao Xueyu and talk to him together, as long as he agrees to these things, there will be no problem." Hearing Zhenniang's calculations, Han Bai felt that it was okay, so the two of them didn't stay long, packed up and went to Yingtian Academy together to find Zhao Xueyu.

Some people donate ink and some people donate money to give bonuses to students, such a thing, Zhao Xueyu has no reason to deserve, in addition, Zhao Xueyu also wrote a letter of invitation, and reported the Li family to the Tianfu Ya, which is also the work of the Yamen's education.

Indoctrination has always been a criterion for the political achievements of the Yamen.

In this way, although the Li family lost another sum of money, the return was predictable, so although the money was a little painful, it was also happy.

Zuihou Han Bai was left behind by a few classmates, and Zhenniang took Xiaoya home.

Not far from the college, Langfang is located.

Langfang was built by the imperial court for foreign businessmen to live, and some foreign officials will also live in Langfang when they first arrive in Nanjing, so there are quite a few wealthy businessmen or some close officials who live in Langfang.

So some of the broken settlements found business opportunities in this, their ancestors or meritorious ministers, or famous bachelors, the family left some valuable things, now broken, and had to take out and sell, just like the later generations, the children of the Eight Banners in the capital broke down, and lived by selling ancestral property.

Whether it is a businessman or some new officials, they are also interested in these things.

So gradually, Langfang formed a Langfang market.

Zhen Niang took the little girl out, the light rain in the sky has stopped, the sun has come out, it is early summer, the weather is slightly hot, but because of the previous light rain, the air is also very fresh, the sky of the Ming Dynasty is extraordinarily blue, Zhen Niang has some interest in shopping, and then took the little girl to Langfang Market.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I entered the Langfang market, I saw that Zeng Yipin had set up a writing and ink appreciation stall not far away.

Obviously, under the ban order of the Tian family, he has not found the owner so far, and he has begun to rely on himself.
