Chapter Seventy-Seven: Shame on Yourself
"I've seen Uncle Zhang!" Ren Siqi stepped forward to give a salute, put the two boxes of snacks he brought on the table, and sat down on the other side of Zhang Jingxian with a big grin. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Zhang Jingxian looked at Ren Siqi coldly, his heart was full of anger. In Zhang Jingxian's view, Ren Siqi saved his daughter, and in addition to giving him a thank you gift of 3,000 taels of silver, he also spoke well for him in front of Zhou County's order, so that Ren Siqi was able to clear his name. I didn't expect this Ren Siqi to come to the door again, I didn't want to see it, and I was afraid that the matter would be uproaring and damaging the reputation of the Zhang family.
Ren Siqi sat down in the chair calmly, not embarrassed at all, twisted his head and looked around at the facilities in the hall, and chattered endlessly.
"Uncle, I've been here many times in the past, but I've never looked at it well. Your furniture is made of authentic rosewood, and all the furniture in my house is made of rosewood, which is far worse than yours, but now there is no furniture left, and when I was in prison, it was stolen by the damned people. ”
"Uncle, is your middle hall the true handiwork of Tang Bohu? Mountain road pine wind map! Tang Xie Yuan is worthy of being one of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River, and his paintings are a must. ”
"Uncle, why haven't you seen Sister Pujia, how is she now?"
Zhang Jingxian originally watched Ren Siqi's performance coldly, but when he heard Ren Siqi mention Zhang Pujia, he couldn't help it anymore.
"Enough! Tell me what you're doing! Zhang Jingxian rebuked angrily.
"Uncle, why do you have to be like this, my sister Pujia and I are childhood sweethearts, although the marriage contract has been dissolved now, but the past love is still there, and it is still necessary to care about it." Ren Siqi said with a hippie smile.
"You also know that the marriage contract has been dissolved, so why do you need to come to the door again if you know?" Zhang Jingxian said angrily: "I have given you three thousand taels of silver, and I will help you clear your name, with this money, you can live comfortably for the rest of your life, and if you marry a daughter-in-law, you can also pass on the lineage, and don't come to the house to entangle in the future!" ”
Embroidery in the backyard, Zhang Pujia is on the table with arithmetic chips, recently she is obsessed with arithmetic, after the nine chapters of arithmetic to see through, and found a lot of arithmetic books, every day with the arithmetic chips non-stop.
The little maid was waiting with a bitter face, her little head could not understand such a complicated knowledge, in the past when the young lady was reading and drawing, she could still insert a few sentences, but she could not understand mathematics.
"Miss, I'll go get you some fruit!" The finch finally couldn't help it, she was a little impatient with what she couldn't read on the side, and she desperately wanted to go out and breathe.
"Go, go, don't bother me." Zhang Pujia said impatiently, fiddling with the chips without raising her head.
"Okay!" The finches screamed happily and went down the embroidery building.
But it didn't take long for her to come back in a panic.
"Miss, guess who's coming?" Que'er came to Zhang Pujia's side and said to her ear.
"Who?" Zhang Pujia still didn't look up.
"Uncle, no, Ren Gongzi!" The finch cried, her voice full of surprise.
"Ahh The calculation chips that Zhang Pujia grabbed in his hand fell on the table all at once, and he couldn't care about counting them anymore.
"What is he here for?" Zhang Pujia grabbed Que'er's hand and asked eagerly.
"Maybe I want to ask the master again." The finch tilted her head and laughed at her young lady.
"Dead girl, I see if you dare to talk nonsense." Zhang Pujia was embarrassed, grabbed Finch's arm with one hand, and scratched her armpit with the other hand.
"Hee-hee, hee-hee. Miss, spare my life, I don't dare anymore! The finch dodged and shouted for forgiveness.
The master and servant quarreled for a while and tidied up their clothes. Zhang Pujia said: "Let's talk about it, why is he here?" ”
Que'er's face showed a look of embarrassment: "Miss, I really don't know, I'm just going to get fruit for you, I heard the people in the house say, Ren Gongzi is here, I don't know what he is doing, why don't I inquire?" As he spoke, he was going downstairs again.
"Forget it, who are you asking?" Zhang Pujia grabbed the finch, "Regardless of him, it's nothing good anyway!" ”
In the hall, Zhang Jingxian was thinking about responsibility.
"If you didn't do anything wrong in the past, how could you be sent to prison and lose your fame, now you should change your mind and be a new person, and you must not be like in the past!"
Ren Siqi made a gesture of listening, but he had his own idea in his stomach.
"Uncle, I'm sure I'll be a new man. But now I can't get a foothold, I was bullied by others just now, I'm afraid I can't stay in this Yin County. Ren Siqi said that he said to Zhang Jingxian about Gao Liqun and others coming to the door to insult him.
"The Gao family is huge, I am helpless in this Yin County, and I have no fame, I am afraid I will not be able to gain a foothold, so I asked for your door, I hope that my uncle will show a clear way in the past friendship between the two families, and restore my fame and fame."
Listening to Ren Siqi's words, Zhang Jingxian was silent, he knew that Gao Liqun framed Ren Siqi, but after all, the Gao family did such a thing in order to marry his daughter, and the Gaomen family had not done some dirty things behind it in recent years, in Zhang Jingxian's opinion, this kind of thing is nothing.
But now that Ren Siqi has fallen into Pingyang, from a showman to a flat-headed commoner, Gao Liqun still bullied him regardless of his identity, which is inevitably a little too narrow-minded, which makes Zhang Jingxian dissatisfied with Gao Liqun.
Maybe I should think about Pu Jia's marriage, Zhang Jingxian said secretly in his heart.
"Uncle, uncle!" Seeing that Zhang Jingxian was silent for a long time, Ren Siqi urged.
"Oh, I know what you mean." Zhang Jingxian came back to his senses and shirked: "But the matter of your restoration of your fame is under the jurisdiction of the Great Grandmaster, and I don't know the Great Grandmaster, and I can't speak!" ”
Ren Siqi heard Zhang Jingxian's prevarication, and said: "How can there be no way for my uncle's family to be a scholarly family and an official eunuch's family?" For the sake of my past relationship with Sister Pujia, please help me a little bit, I will never forget my uncle's friendship. ”
Zhang Jingxian felt that his head was big as soon as he heard Ren Siqi mention Zhang Pujia, and he didn't want Ren Siqi to entangle with his daughter anymore, but now Ren Siqi put on a scoundrel face, so that he didn't know what to do.
"Well, I can think, but I don't have to be successful. I only hope that after this incident, you can study with peace of mind and don't come back to entanglement! ”
Zhang Jingxian sighed, ordered his subordinates to take out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and immediately repair a book.
"Huang Yan is now traveling in Hangzhou, he is already a person, he has many friends in Hangzhou, and he should be able to talk to the great master, you take this letter to him!"
Zhang Jingxian is talking about his nephew Zhang Huangyan, Zhang Huangyan is a famous talent in Yin County, his sixteen-year-old talent is famous, and he is famous throughout Ningbo Mansion. Unlike Ren Siqi, who did not want to forge ahead after winning the show, Zhang Huangyan studied hard after winning the Xiucai in the ninth year of Ming Chongzhen, and was admitted to the examination in the fourteenth year of Chongzhen. As for Ren Siqi himself, he is notorious all over Ningbo.
Hearing Zhang Jingxian mention Zhang Huangyan, Ren Siqi was silent, he knew that he and Zhang Huangyan could not be compared, in the face of absolute strength, any words were just jokes!
Silently took the letter, Ren Siqi bowed to Zhang Jingxian, and left Zhang's mansion.
In the corner of the corridor, Zhang Pujia and Que Er hid behind the flowers, silently watching Ren Siqi's back.
