Ranger Er's behavior was quickly known by the people of Cheng Mansion, and everyone was very enthusiastic about Ranger Er, such a good man, who is willing to go to the soup for his family, deserves everyone's respect.

Suddenly, the ranger was treated as a guest by the Cheng family, but the ranger was not a little proud, he stubbornly thought that all this was what he should do, so he didn't need the Cheng family to thank them in particular, but he couldn't control other people's thoughts, especially the girls in the Cheng Mansion looked at him with their eyes shining, although he was very poor, but who didn't like such a good man, and the Cheng Mansion was not full of dirt like other mansions, and the maids were free to marry when they reached their age, Even if Cheng Huailiang's personal maid will marry out then, Cheng Huailiang has no intention of bringing him into the house, although he has said such things before, but now that the two princesses have basically been determined, it is not very suitable to find a daughter again, so Cheng Huailiang clearly said to Ying'er, if it suits her, let her pursue her happiness freely.

The ranger is happy in the house, Cheng Huailiang is also enjoying happiness in prison, there is wine and meat at every meal, sleep when you eat, eat when you sleep, just like a pig, but fortunately, you still take some time to exercise in the cell every day, so as not to return to the army and give it back to the furnace in the future, at night, call a few errands over, let them come over to play mahjong with him to pass the time, those errand soldiers are also willing to play with him, Cheng Huailiang basically loses money, he is not short of money, as long as someone accompanies him, he is willing to lose more, we can't afford to lose, So every night is the happiest time for the officers.

Li Er seemed to have forgotten about him, and kept leaving him in prison and ignoring him.

Ranger's body is really not covered, it doesn't look very strong, but its physical fitness is really strong, and it feels good in less than three days, and the wound is treated by timely disinfection. There is no more inflammation, which may also be related to the weather.

The injured ranger is bored, and often wanders around the Cheng Mansion alone, except for the residence of a few female dependents, he can't go to accidents, and he can go to other places casually.

No one plays mahjong during the day, mainly because the family members have to work during the day. can't accompany him, there are only a few who are free, Cheng Huailiang can call Anna when he is there, but Cheng Huailiang is not there, it is impossible to ask Anna to play mahjong, so he is often missing one, he, Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chubi is a servant. Occasionally, Li Huairen will come over, but more often than not, the three of them look at each other, and the taste of three missing one is very uncomfortable.

Scholar Long Wei has been in Cheng's Mansion for a few days, and no one has arranged things for him to do when he arrives in Cheng's Mansion, and he lives alone in a small courtyard, which is very quiet, very free, and very comfortable. The food is also very unique and delicious, so that the scholar fell in love with this place in a few days. People who fall in love here, there is not so much intrigue between people, and there is a kind of home-like warm feeling.

If you have nothing to do, practice calligraphy, read and read, and live a comfortable life alone, this is a good environment for reading. The scholar couldn't help but say.

On this day, the scholar Long Wei was shaking his head in his small courtyard and reading the book of sages, looking very devoted. The depressed ranger wandered to the scholar's side, and happened to hear the scholar's loud recitation.

Looking at the scholar shaking his head, the ranger decided that he had to pull this guy into the water today, otherwise when would such a day be a head.

"Hey, what about scholars?" The ranger greeted with a grin, like a second-rate son.

The scholar glanced at the ranger, didn't he ask knowingly, there would be no good thing when he saw this way, the scholar didn't bother to pay attention to him, and continued to shake his head and recite his poems alone.

"Hey, scholar, do you know how to be an official?" Ranger asked.

Sure enough, these words aroused the interest of the scholar, his desire to be an official is very strong, and the purpose of his study is to become an official, in order to be able to do something practical for the people of the world.

"You know?" The scholar asked incredulously.

"Of course I know, in the years I've been a ranger, no one has ever seen it, nothing has happened to me, this is a must." Ranger said affirmatively.

"Hehe, then tell me, frankly I don't know much about this." The scholar immediately licked his face and asked.

"I can blow, I can Kai, I can drink." Ranger said firmly.

"Cut, I thought I was talking about something." The scholar Long Wei didn't believe it at all, and was going to continue reading his sage book, and he didn't bother to pay attention to the ranger's boast here.

"No, sit down and listen to me tell you." The ranger took the scholar's hand and said.

"Am I still lying to you, sit down and sit down."

"Then you say it, and I'll listen to it." In the end, the scholar couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and sat down.

"What does it mean to be able to blow, you see if that official is not able to speak well, do you need to talk to the people about the new policy guidelines, do you need to report to them well when the official comes, will there be a slightly exaggerated element in it? If you don't boast, how can you come out with political achievements? If you don't exaggerate, how can you show Shangguan's ability? Besides, there is a Shangguan here, do you want to accompany him to drink, this is not a bribe, this is called contacting feelings, will you be given a good opportunity after the relationship is good? This is the legendary ability to blow, to Kai, to drink? Do you think what I'm saying makes sense? ”

Although the scholar is very disgusted with these behaviors, he has to admit that the ranger is right, officialdom is like this, you can't rely on your blood to mix well, you rush into the officialdom with blood, and the final result is that you come out of it in embarrassment, or become someone else's stepping stone, and be used as a gun.

Seeing that the scholar fell into deep thought, Ranger continued: "Since ancient times, officialdom is the most difficult to mix, if you want to do practical things for the people, then you have to fight with corrupt officials many times, how do you say you fight now?" With a stock of scholars, you will definitely be in the head, all of them, you have to learn to change, you have to become more tactful, smarter, more witty than the corrupt officials, so that you can do what you want to do. Do you think I'm right? ”

The scholar couldn't help but nodded, feeling that what the ranger said still had some truth.

"No, then now, the first thing for you is no longer to read, but to learn to integrate into everyone's life, your books have been read all your life, and you should have memorized them for a long time, and there is no shortage of this time and a half."

"So what do you say?"

"Let's go, come with me, I'll show you how to get along with everyone more easily."

Therefore, the scholar with a strong thirst for knowledge fell into the trap of the ranger, followed the ranger to learn to play mahjong, and never missed one of the three. (To be continued.) )
