The news of Jia Cong's township test failure also spread in Jiafu, the news is not shocking, and the clansmen who have high hopes for him may be a little disappointed, but they will not regret it to any extent, it is very common for the township test to fail.

However, his aura of "prodigy" and "spiritual blessing" slowly faded.

Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang, when they heard about this, probably replied, "Oh, read it again."

……

Jia Yu Yuan on the East Road, the hall house is left for dinner, the master of the big man's room is complete, Jia Yu, Mrs. Xing, Jia Lian, Wang Xifeng, Jia Cong entered, Ping'er, Jiaohong, Qiu Tong, Qingwen, Xiaohong and other girls served at the door.

"Nine-year-old Xiucai, this is talent, when your late Brother Zhu was admitted to the middle school membership, he was fourteen years old, and he didn't get promoted, but it was reasonable, he took the exam a few more times, and he honed it out, which is so easy to walk in the field? Right? ”

Jia Yu of the main seat said in an old-fashioned manner, he and Mrs. Xing sat opposite to each other, and the next Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng did not sit down to eat first, served the second elder, put chopsticks and cloth rang, and waited for Mrs. Xing to say "Let's eat together", the two couples sat down, and Jia Cong was the last to sit far away.

The hall was dimly lit, and the door to the outer room was filled with a red scarlet curtain felt, and Jiao Hong lit a yarn lamp beside it.

Hearing Jia Yu's words, Mrs. Xing responded with a smile, her fatness is estimated to be as big as Wang Xifeng and Jia Cong combined, and the unmarried young ladies who eat and sleep without saying a word, the two couples who have been married for many years can talk about it during the banquet.

Mrs. Xing calculated the turnover of money in her heart, and said, "Master, it costs a lot of money to study for Cong'er. From last year to the Mid-Autumn Festival in August this year, all kinds of people took out more than 1,300 taels, but there were a few houses and a few acres of land that were worth it. I don't know these things in the township exam, but I ...... practice like this."

She also complained bitterly in her heart, as a mother-in-law, she couldn't ignore it, but Jia Yu was already extravagant and wasteful, banquets, watching plays, listening to music, and little wife, she couldn't get the lion's share.

Wang Xifeng's eyes turned, and he sneered in his heart, but he didn't say anything helplessly.

As soon as he heard that silver was involved, Jia Lian's ears pricked up.

The dining scene of the big house gathering together is in Jia Cong's impression of the Red Mansion and part of the fusion of memories, but I have never seen it, probably from Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng moved back, and after Jia Cong went up, it started slowly.

Jia Cong didn't speak like a child.

Jia Yu pondered his own silver for the first time in the world, just like he later sold Jia Yingchun for five thousand taels of silver, this value does not seem to be low, but it is not worth the price of 100,000 yuan for a famous girl in Qinhuaihe.

The economic source of the eldest lord, there is no doubt that the big head is the clan Zhuangtun, and the second is the Guanglu Temple or the reward issued by the household, which is actually just a symbol, because he is issued by the title of first-class general, which can only be regarded as a small head.

Such as grandmothers, Li Kun's economic life is the best, and Jia's mother is in charge, because she is an orphan and widow, and she has more than 500 taels a year (data from the original book).

Jia Yu's side is also fixed, and tens of thousands of dollars a year are small.

Jia Cong unconsciously remembered the scene in the Red Mansion: many masters ate japonica rice at the beginning, and japonica rice was tribute rice, but after seventy or eighty times, they couldn't afford to eat it, because of this, they didn't know how to manage the land? Or did the court take it back?

"Cong'er's account has always been calculated by me, you don't have to calculate it there, and then it will be transferred directly from my treasury, and I will call Jiaohong to send it." Jia Yu felt that something was wrong.

Without me? How can I be greedy? Mrs. Xing felt bitter in her heart, but said with a smile on her face: "Yes, yes, yes." ”

Jia Cong wanted to laugh when she heard this, she couldn't help but pretend to choke on the soup, she coughed dryly, Qingwen came in with a bowl, aimed at Jia Cong's mouth, and winked mischievously.

Wang Xifeng chewed slowly and didn't eat much, she didn't want to eat when she was angry, the handkerchief wiped the corners of her mouth, and the virtuous little daughter-in-law gave Jia Cong vegetables, Jia Cong replied "Thank you, sister-in-law", Wang Xifeng said in a harmonious voice: "Master, wife, Brother Cong Township tried to go wrong, I walked around from the second wife, and the second master's mansion newspaper heard that it wouldn't affect Brother Cong himself?" ”

Jia Cong stared at Wang Xifeng suddenly for a moment, looking at her demeanor, she was indeed a little worried, how could her sister-in-law be so kind?

"It shouldn't even affect him, Cong'er is the victim, how others quarrel is someone else's business." Jia Yu obviously didn't care about this matter.

Jia Cong is safe and sound in this matter, he is not out of line, he has always been within the rules of the game, Zhu Juan misjudged, he printed the manuscript widely, this is what every victim candidate will do.

As for the quarrel between the court bosses, the situation is very clear: this matter is an introduction, and they are arguing for their own interests and responsibilities. Really upset for Jia Cong? Sorry, they don't have that kind heart.

The pen and sense of smell of civil officials love to engage in this set, tearing it apart from an irrelevant trivial matter, and the old fritters are self-evident at a glance.

Jia Cong didn't think about visiting Qian Xihong, and announced it openly, but the Ministry of Rites had already been polished, and the initiative was not in his hands.

And Qian Xihong's "misjudgment" misunderstood the "Buddha time" and "Zhenguan", whether he was intentional or the Four Books and Five Classics were not indiscriminate, it is estimated that only he knows best.

Jia Cong guessed that Qian Xihong had forgotten the annotations of the Four Books and Five Classics, this situation is really not unusual, and there are real cases in history. After all, if it weren't for his clever misunderstanding, the examiner wouldn't have joked with his own life, was there someone behind Qian Xihong's instructions?

Rinsing his mouth with the tea handed over by Qingwen casually, spitting it into the bowl, and then washing and drying his hands from the Qiutong basin, Jia Cong's afterglow still saw a trace of Wang Xifeng's fear and fear.

Could it be Wang Xifeng?

Jia Cong remembered that in the Red Mansion, Xicheng Yushi listened to Wang Xifeng's words very much, which was nothing more than Wang Ziteng's reason.

Wang Xifeng meddled in this matter and took revenge on him, but it was not all flaws, even if the Zhili Township test was proposed by the emperor, but the main culprit was the examiner, Qian Xihong thought that he had found the wrong place, but in fact, he had found the wrong place. However, does Qian Xihong dare to bite out Wang Xifeng?

This woman's wisdom is best at the shortcomings of the family, if it involves officialdom, there will be flaws, and no matter how powerful her mother's family is, it is beyond her reach, Wang Xifeng's calculation of Second Sister You, treatment of Zhang Hua, etc., are all mines for themselves, leaving a lot of traces.

Officialdom, she can't.

Although there is no evidence, Jia Cong is vaguely sure that this girl has not done a good thing, this person has not done a good thing except for helping Grandma Liu and Xing Xiuyan.

"If you're so cruel to me, don't blame me for being ruthless in the future. If you were really smart, you wouldn't even listen to Qin Keqing's words about running Zu Qi. Jia Cong said secretly: "I will definitely make you regret it." ”

……

Wang Xifeng went back to his yard, leaning on the bed and tossing and turning, he got the news in the past few days, it was really difficult to sleep and eat, what if Qian Xihong bit out himself?

She raised her eyebrows slightly, thought about it, and instructed Ping'er: "You quickly call the Lord Wen Xianggong to come and repair the book to your uncle, but it's good to confess." Didn't Qian Xihong go to the prison of the Criminal Department? I can only ask my uncle to use his relationship and ...... him"

As she spoke, her Danfeng eyes revealed a touch of ruthlessness.

"Uncle is in Jiubian, and it will take some time for Jizhou to write back and forth." Ping'er wanted to speak and stopped, although this is the safest, but as soon as Wang Teng understands this matter, Wang Xifeng will have to rely on his mother's relationship in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult to say......
