Chapter 240: Donating Officials (2)
Lin Zhengbei, who was silent, picked up his wine glass and drank three glasses in a row. Lin Ruoxi, who can understand without Li Wenxuan's eyes, acts as a link and buffer between the two, and already feels that her man is reasonable, so she picks vegetables into her father's dishes, and persuades each other with kind words: "You always know the Tao, and you can't be in a hurry in everything, after all, things are slow and round." In this huge capital, the eldest brother does business, and the second brother wants to be an official, and they all have to be carried out and carried out step by step. One bite will make a fat man. Even Wen Jie, who was born by me, has to go through the process of conceiving a baby in October. β
Lin Zhengbei, who felt that he was indeed too eager, had to agree with Li Wenxuan's proposal and said, "Then do as you say." How much silver is needed, just open your mouth to speak. β
Li Wenxuan knew in his heart that it would not cost much money to donate an alternate seventh-rank official. In a word, as long as it is not a fat shortage, it is not a real shortage, it can only be a faΓ§ade decoration. He didn't care about spending this amount of money for the Lin family, and said with a smile: "You always talk about money, but you can see the outside." Lin Jiagui's affairs are wrapped up in me. β
Lin Zhengbei, who knows his son-in-law's temperament very well, estimates that he can't spend a few dollars, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy and generous. My long-term understanding of Li Wenxuan knows that the other party either doesn't open his mouth to mention money, and once he talks about silver, it will definitely not be less. In Lin Zhengbei's view, Li Wenxuan belongs to the kind of person who either doesn't open, but has to eat for three years if he opens once.
After talking about business, Li Wenxuan and Lin Zhengbei talked about their parents' shortcomings, and talked about what is interesting in the capital, what is good, what is delicious, and so on. The father-in-law who accompanied him drank a few more glasses, but he actually drank the other party high. Lin Ruoxi, who called the two maids, naturally instructed them to send their father to sleep in the side room in the courtyard.
Li Wenxuan, who was full of food and drink, sat on the chair next to him and said with a smile while sipping tea: "If Lin Jiagui really makes up for the real lack and becomes a magistrate, then the people of one side will suffer." β
Lin Ruoxi, who knows his second brother better than him, is not angry when he hears him say this, after all, it is indeed a worrying truth. She didn't take his words and continued to say below, so she came and said, "The concubine believes that Wen Jie of our family will definitely not embark on the road of donating officials." He will definitely show his talents from the examination, raise people, and enter the jinshi, all the way up, and even Xie Yuan, Hui Yuan, Champion, and Lian Zhong Sanyuan. Noticing her look of ardent expectation, it is not difficult to guess that the only way for his son to develop in the future is to take the imperial examination.
"The name you gave to our son makes me depressed. People who know the Tao of Lu understand that Wenjie of our family is my son, and if people who don't know the Tao of Lu, I am afraid that they will mistakenly think that he and I are brothers. It's just not clear, I, the one who is his father, will be misunderstood by outsiders as his brother or brother? Li Wenxuan, who was not serious, said with a hippie smile.
Lin Ruoxi has placed great hopes on her son since she was pregnant, so when she chose the name, she also pinned her hope on it. was said by him inadvertently, and he also felt that he had not thought it through at the beginning: "Or, change the name of our son?" β
Li Wenxuan, who really felt that such things didn't matter at all, leaned back on the back of the chair, crossed Erlang's legs and said, "If you want to change it, just change it!" The name is just a person's code name. β
Lin Ruoxi, who was walking back and forth in the house, did not consider adding the word "son" after her surname in order to distinguish between her room and the child born in Zhao Tianer's room. She lowered her head slightly because she thought about it, and asked for his opinion: "Since you don't object to the concubine changing the name of your son, then change the name to Tianyou, which is intended to be blessed by God." β
Li Wenxuan, who blurted out the word "good", raised his left hand and rubbed his itchy left eye. Lin Ruoxi, who was affirmed by him, changed his son's name from Li Wenjie to Li Tianyou.
"During this period of time, when you accompany your father, it is appropriate to persuade him to dispel the idea of letting your second brother become an official. This donated official, is there anyone who doesn't want to get back the money invested in it with interest! Li Wenxuan thought that Lin Jiagui would make up for the real lack in the future, and he would also want to be better, after all, people's desires are unlimited. At that time, the person who came forward to ask for his help must have been Lin Zhengbei. Rather than making it more difficult someday in the future, it is better to take precautions.
Lin Ruoxi, who was a little unsightly on her face, pursed her lips and said stiffly: "Not necessarily my second brother, he is the one who spends money to be a good official." Even if he can't let go of his duties, he will do things and be an official as he should. β
Li Wenxuan, who laughed a few times, would not believe that Lin Jiagui spent a lot of money in the family just to get over the addiction of being an official. I only thought that her two words were really funny: "I saw you say this, and even your face turned red." β
Lin Ruoxi, who glanced at him, said his real conjecture about his mother's donation of officials: "The concubine assesses that her father has to let the second brother be an official, and the second brother may not be so willing." The reason why the second brother did not disobey his father's intention was that he wanted to leave Guixi County so that he could come to the capital to have fun. β
Li Wenxuan, who had played with it for a while, felt that her speculation was really a high probability possibility, after all, the second child of the Lin family was also a veteran of the Fengyue place. A wealthy figure like him has long played all over Guangxin Mansion, and there is no freshness. In his heart, he naturally wanted to go to the big pier and the big occasion, the purpose was to get rid of the constraints of his family and have more fun.
"If your second brother really has such an idea as you said, I'm afraid that the family business accumulated by your Lin family is not enough for him to squander in this place in the capital." Li Wenxuan, who knows that there is more money among the rich, is moved by feelings.
Lin Ruoxi, who sat down, persuaded his second brother with words before he left the cabinet, but there was no result. Now, not to mention that she is already married to a wife, and as a mother, she is no longer the daughter of the Lin family. She also expected such a situation, and sighed: "In the future, if the Xianggong can be thoughtful about my second brother, then look at the face of the concubine and try to be as thoughtful as possible." If not, then leave it to fend for itself. The sins of heaven are forgivable, but the sins of oneself cannot be lived. β
