Chapter 62: The Uninvited Guest (2)

Ren Juren was wearing a brand-new jujube red silk arrow shirt, azure satin coat, a crystal clear jade pendant hanging from his waist, a Beijing-style melon hat on his head, and a pair of new-style inner city Beijing boots. What's even more annoying is that he talked about Brother Zhixing, but his eyes were looking around the small courtyard with interest, and he didn't look at Han Xiufeng at all.

Han Xiufeng knew that he was here to make trouble, so he calmed down and said quietly: "Master Ren is here, and the cold house is shining. It's just that the humble house is too simple, and even these tables, chairs and benches in the yard are all borrowed by the neighbors, and I haven't bothered to wipe them, and I don't know if I can wipe them clean, for fear of soiling your clothes. ”

"It's okay." Ren He smiled, walked to the door of the hall as if no one was around, and sat down on the main seat with a big grin.

Guan Zhutou and Wang Jingcheng were anxious in their eyes, if someone else came here to make trouble, they would have called the officials to beat him out. However, he is no one else, he is a well-known man, and if he doesn't like it, he can come to give face to the Han family.

The two of them stared at each other, and they could only be in a hurry.

Thinking of why he came to make trouble, Han Xiufeng was not as angry as before, walked over and sat down opposite him, looked at him with a smile and said, "Master Ren, the guests haven't arrived yet, and we have to wait for a while for the banquet to start." This home is newly purchased, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I really want nothing, I don't even have a tea bowl, I can only let you sit dry, I can only talk to you. ”

"It's okay," Ren He looked at Han Xiufeng, as if he suddenly remembered something, slapped his thigh, picked up the scroll he had just put down, stood up and untied the rope tied to it in front of everyone, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhixing, I really didn't know that today was your big day, and I didn't prepare at all." Fortunately, I wrote a piece of writing in Fuxue in the morning, and framed it on the way, just to send you, I wish you and the bride a good marriage, and give birth to a noble son early. ”

After finishing speaking, he slowly let go of the scroll in front of everyone, and sure enough, it was a painting of dragons flying and phoenixes dancing.

Han Xiufeng not only didn't thank him, but his face changed all of a sudden!

Guan Zhutou realized that what was written was not a good thing, and couldn't help but turn around and ask: "Wang Jingcheng, what is written?" ”

"Rich families don't need to buy fertile land, there are thousands of bells in the book. There is no need to erect tall buildings to live in peace, and there is a golden house in the book. Don't hate unscrupulous matchmakers when marrying a wife, there is Yan Ruyu in the book. Don't hate to go out with no one, there are many cars and horses in the book. The boy wants to fulfill his life's aspirations, and reads the Pentateuch to the window. After Wang Jingcheng finished reading, he said in a low voice: "This is Song Zhenzong Zhao Heng's "Encouragement of Learning", he sent this character, it was a joke that the four children could not study, and they could not get famous, so they could only use silver to donate to officials. ”

He dared to humiliate the four babies on this happy day, which is unbearable!

Guan Zhutou couldn't control it anymore, and was about to step forward to theorize, when someone behind him suddenly asked coldly: "Ren Juren, Master Ren, what is your intention in sending this painting, is it to humiliate my brother Zhixing, or even to humiliate me Liu Daquan?" ”

"Ambassador Liu is here, Ambassador Liu is here, please do it!" Guan Zhutou hurriedly beckoned.

"Close the head of the class, self-sufficient people don't need to be polite, let me ask Master Ren first what is the intention of sending this character." Liu Daquan walked quickly to the door of the hall, took off his official hat, and glared at Ren He angrily, almost writing on his face that this matter was not over if he didn't give an explanation.

Although Ren He was arrogant, he didn't dare to offend Liu Daquan, because Liu Daquan had both power and silver, not only did he just donate a seven-grade top, but he also seemed to plan to spend some more silver to donate a seven-grade shortage. Seeing that Liu Daquan was inadvertently annoyed, he had no idea for a while, after all, although he was promoted but did not become an official, he is still a scholar to this day.

"Master Ren, speak, don't you look down on us donors?"

"How dare you," Ren He relieved himself and hurriedly arched his hand: "Ambassador Liu, I'...... I happened to be passing by, I didn't know that today was the day of the big day of the Zhixing brother, I didn't have a little preparation, I happened to have a word in my hand, I wanted to talk about the heart, I didn't think that this word should not be the scene. ”

Liu Daquan hates those imperial examination officials who look down on donations, today is really popular, how can he let Ren He just fool the past, hugged his arms and said: "Since you know that the situation is not good, then change your mind." ”

"It's not a lack of preparation."

"Talk about your heart, you don't need to deliberately prepare," Liu Daquan took out a silver ingot from his sleeve, put it in front of Han Xiufeng, looked at Ren He with a smile and said, "Master Ren, have you seen it, that's it." Hurry up, you see that there are more and more guests, and the big guys are all waiting to be seated. ”

As soon as Liu Daquan's voice fell, the county pottery master Bo squeezed in from the onlookers, took out a silver ticket from his sleeve, and it was fifty taels, put it in front of Han Xiufeng, and looked at Ren He with a smile: "Master Ren, it's your turn, let's talk about your heart." ”

One is the cang ambassador of the Daotai Yamen, and the other is the chief of the county yamen.

As the saying goes, the county officials are not as good as the current management, Ren He really didn't dare to offend them, so he could only take out a silver ticket from his arms, put it on the table, and then hugged his fists and said: "Ambassador Liu, second master, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that there is something else in Fuxue, I have to go back quickly, you two sit, I'll go first." ”

"Wait."

"What else does Ambassador Liu have to say?"

"Take this painting away, Master Ren, you are a man, your words are expensive! If you go to Beijing this time to catch the title of the gold list, you will be able to pull Hanlin, and your words will be more expensive at that time, and you can't throw them around. ”

"Thank you for mentioning it," Ren He put away the words in front of everyone, walked out stupidly, and when he was about to walk to the door, he was not convinced, and turned back and said: "Ambassador Liu, borrow your auspicious words, if Ren really has the title of the gold list on the day, he will definitely come to the door to thank you!" ”

"If there is such a day, Liu will definitely prepare wine to welcome him!"

"Farewell."

"Don't send it!"

……

"Ambassador Liu, second master, if it weren't for the two of you, I don't know when I would be humiliated, I don't know when I will receive this great humiliation, I will not thank you, and when the banquet is opened, I will respect you two and accompany you two to get drunk." How could Han Xiufeng not know what to do, as soon as Ren Juren walked out of the door, he got up to thank him, and then returned the silver and silver tickets to the two rescuers.

Liu Daquan had planned to come to eat and drink for nothing, but he didn't think about sending silver at all, let alone sending so much. Seeing that Han Xiufeng was so sensible, Liu Daquan generously took back the silver, looked back at the door and scolded with a smile: "His turtle son actually dares to threaten Lao Tzu, don't say that he may not be able to enter the Jinshi, even if he can be promoted to the Shila Hanlin, his turtle son will not be able to control my Liu Daquan in this life, and I have not yet been an official in my hometown in the Qing Dynasty." ”

Tao Master Bo took the silver ticket, and couldn't help but say: "Even if his turtle son is a Zhongjin Shila Hanlin, it's still early to want to be a Shangguan!" ”
