Chapter 308: No Reward
Although Fang Yingwu continued to be short with his future mother-in-law's parents, he was a little absent-minded, and at least half of his thoughts were on his little fiancée who had disappeared.
Well, it seems that he is deeply poisoned by etiquette, and he is embarrassed to face to face with himself, so he pretends to be a maid and stands in the crowd. But she still couldn't hold back, jumped out to help herself speak, and did not hesitate to reprimand her sister-in-law for this.
It's really a little lady with a very straightforward temper.,Quickly develop a sense of identity.、The temperament that can unconditionally protect the short is simply too likable.,The three outlines and five permanent feudal etiquette are sometimes quite good.,Fang Yingwu thought.。
Fang Yingwu was not in his mind, and it was inevitable that he would lose concentration when talking to his future mother-in-law, and seeing that Liu Mian had not returned for a long time, he felt that it was time for him to leave. Otherwise, if you continue like this, it is easy to make mistakes in words and deeds, and you will lose all your efforts.
Mrs. Liu didn't keep it, but just diligently told Fang Yingwu to come and move around more, and Fang Yingwu agreed in her mouth. After that, someone naturally led Fang Yingwu out of the back garden and returned the same way.
At this time, suddenly another little maid rushed out from another path, handed Fang Yingwu a piece of paper, and explained: "My young lady asked the slave family to give it to Fang Gongzi." Then he covered his mouth and ran away grinning.
Fang Yingwu looked down, it was a blank pink poem with a faint fragrance
What does Little Lady Liu mean? Fang Yingwu thought about it for a while and suddenly realized that the poem was blank, that is, he implied that he filled it in, or asked him to write poems to her, more specifically to write love poems.
What a little girl's mind! In the eyes of Fang Yingwu, who has experienced "vicissitudes" and often messes around in Vanity Fair, the actions of the little lady of the Liu family are really a little naïve and naïve, but they are very interesting. It aroused a different kind of interest and lingered in my heart.
It's like the pure, ambiguous, sweet and sour hint of the opposite sex at the same table in the junior high school of the previous life. It's a pity that I only read textbooks at that time.
Walking towards the door in the middle of thinking about non-Africa, Fang Yingwu involuntarily had some bad associations. Is such a simple and cute little lady really born to Liu Mian?
"Is Fang Gongzi leaving?" The doorman's question interrupted Fang Yingwu's deep thought, causing him to wake up suddenly, only to find that he was already standing at the gate.
Quickly returning to normal from the state of brain cramps, Fang Yingwu coughed a few times, took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to the door official. Then he spoke: "It's really not clear below, I don't know how many young ladies you have?" ”
The reason why he asked these questions was because Fang Yingwu found that he didn't know anything about the internal situation in the Liu Mansion, and he hated this feeling of being hostile to me. If there is an unexpected situation like today's sister-in-law next time. Can't you go back and rely on your little wife to find a place back?
This is not a big secret, of course, the doorman took the money and explained with all his heart: "My lord has two sons and a young lady. The eldest son is a concubine, the second son is a concubine, and the third sister is also a concubine. ”
Fang Yingwu said tentatively: "The third sister looks very favored? ”
The doorman explained: "When my old lady gave birth to the third lady, she was already forty years old, which was really an accident. The old and the young are naturally pampered very much, as delicate as the pearl in the palm of the hand. ”
It turned out to be a genuine daughter. No wonder he dared to point at his sister-in-law's nose and reprimand him in a hurry. Fang Yingwu let out an "oh" again, as if asking casually: "Then the two sons of your mansion should also study and study, where do they live now?" ”
"It's really not as good as Fang Gongzi." The doorman praised Fang Yingwu, and then said: "The two sons have already entered the school." But it didn't go any further. Especially the eldest son, who has been stumbling for more than ten years, but it is still difficult to get on the township list. ”
It's another hardship that fell before the difficulty of the township test. In contrast, Fang Yingwu found that he was so happy, a famous person who didn't know how many people to envy.
But it's also confusing. Is this too difficult to test in Shuntianfu Township, or is Liu Mian unwilling to make a move or unable to catch it? All of these reasons seem to make sense. What exactly is going on, it is not possible to ask from the mouth of the doorman.
Fang Yingwu changed the topic and asked again: "Liu Gonggui is the prime minister, and the descendants of Enyin are not a problem, why don't you ask the eldest prince to study?" If you are out of the country, you can also be regarded as having a background, and you can go to the ministry to elect officials, why bother trying to suffer in the township? ”
The doorman replied: "Gongzi Fang is reasonable, and everyone in the family thinks so. But my lord did not allow the eldest prince to sit in prison, and only allowed the eldest prince to participate in the imperial examination. ”
Don't guess Liu Mian's thoughts, Fang Yingwu shook his head and gave up the idea of pondering Liu Mian's thoughts. However, after asking about family affairs, it seems that he has found another Liu Mian, who is not only a loving father who spoils his daughter, but also a strict father who strictly demands his son, and the image of the old cotton pavilion in the temple cannot coincide.
Fang Yingwu suddenly faintly understood, that sister-in-law Jiang was only afraid that she was also dissatisfied with the status quo of her husband's inaction, and maybe she was angry with her father-in-law, and she saw that her father-in-law valued herself very partially, so she couldn't help but vent a few words about herself today?
At this point, Fang Yingwu had nothing to ask, and he bowed his hand to the door official and was about to leave Liu's mansion. "Fang Gongzi can't go!" The door official suddenly stopped Fang Yingwu, and then pointed to the entrance of the alley: "My master is back." ”
Fang Yingwu raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw the honor guard of Zaifu, so he stood in the door with the door official to greet him.
Liu Ji will not get off the sedan chair at the gate when he goes home, under normal circumstances, he will get off the sedan chair outside the instrument gate, that is, the second gate, and then receive the sedan chair into the sedan hall outside the second gate.
But when the sedan chair passed by the gate, it stopped, the curtain was lifted from the inside, and Liu Mian's face was revealed, and his subordinates were instructed: "Please go to the study!" ”
Fang Yingwu couldn't leave if he wanted to, so he had to turn around and enter Liu's Mansion again, this time he was directly taken to the study. After waiting for an unknown amount of time, I saw Liu Mian wiping his face and entering the study.
After Fang Yingwu saw the ceremony, he greeted and said, "Gong Liu came back a little late tonight. ”
Liu Mian looked at the sun through the window with a weak heart, is it still early? Is Fang Yingwu casually polite or sarcastic? He replied: "I came back late today because the cabinet has important matters to discuss. ”
Since the last fiasco due to information asymmetry, Fang Yingwu has been interested in all court news. Although he didn't know if Liu Mian would tell the truth, he just boldly asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Liu Mian smiled faintly, "It doesn't hurt to tell you about this." In the autumn of last year, the eunuch Wang Zhi and the imperial historian Wang Yue led the Beijing camp army along the Xuanda and Yansui patrol the border to defend the prisoners, and there was a great victory in Weininghai in January this year, which can be called the biggest victory in the north since Emperor Xuanzong.
Recently, Wang Yue has a script, the Tao is about to return to the court, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to commend the cabinet, so that the cabinet to draw up a detailed statement, today the cabinet will discuss the matter. ”
Wang Zhi is going to take Sun Xiaoniang back to Beijing? Fang Yingwu couldn't say what it was like in his heart, but it was also expected, if he went, he would return, and if he left the teacher, he would have a class teacher.
Especially after the big victory, with Wang Zhi's virtue, if you don't want to take the opportunity to go back to Beijing to show off and boast, then the surname of the other party should be written upside down!
"Actually, you're worrying." Liu Mian said with emotion: "This time, Wang Zhi didn't know what medicine she had taken wrong, and your name was actually on the list." You have already credited your merits twice in vain, waiting for it to be cashed out in the future, how else do you say the imperial court can reward you? Let you be promoted three levels in a row after entering the company? That's outrageous. ”
Fang Yingwu's mind suddenly came up with a line that he remembered when he watched TV series in his last life: There is no reward, only death
He couldn't help but shudder and threw out this unlucky thought. Where is this, he is still far from that level, except for the founding ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, this is not fashionable. (To be continued......)
