It is said that learning literature and martial arts, goods and the emperor's family, not to mention that in ancient times, the children of the poor family wanted to rise to the top for ten years, even in modern times, reading and entering the officialdom is also the pursuit of many people. Lin Taohua couldn't say anything to make Zhou Ming give up Chunqiu, and she couldn't do anything to trap a big man by her side, but it was difficult for her to let her happily sing with her husband.

"It's annoying!" Lin Taohua hugged her head and hummed.

Yue Yang glanced at her, and said speechlessly: "When he is an official, you will be a lady, there are people in front of and behind you to serve, if he is not an official, you will raise chickens and ducks in the Zhuangzi, and spend your days idle, what's so bothering about this?" ”

Lin Taohua put his right hand on his cheek, and said faintly: "What's so good about being an official, not to mention the hardships of being a clean official, it's not good that because I blocked the way of the big guys, I was inexplicably involved, the light dismissal and return home, the heavy raid and extermination, no matter how you look at it, it's not a good job, how can I do business and do gold for 10,000 taels to be at ease." ”

Yue Yang poured himself a cup of tea and said casually: "Maybe Brother Ming doesn't seek wealth or fame, but only wants to be the master of the people and benefit the people." ”

Lin Taohua was blocked by him and had nothing to say. For the benefit of all the people, hehe, what a grand ambition, Lin Taohua did not have the courage to persuade Zhou Ming to give up the people for a small family, and also knew that it was a noble character to love the people with great righteousness, but she always felt that there were many ways to fraternity, why do you have to take the official career, they can also do business and lead everyone to make a fortune.

"It's okay to benefit the people without being an official, why do you have to be an official with your head up? How can political ambitions be so easy to achieve? Throughout the ages, I don't know how many virtuous and famous people have lost their lives for this so-called ambition. Whether it's narrow-minded or selfish, I don't want Brother Ming to be the historical celebrity who sacrificed his life for all people. ”

Yue Yang found that Lin Taohua was extremely repulsive to the government and even the imperial court. He pondered for a moment, and said softly: "There are good people in the world and bad people, although there are corrupt officials and cool officials in the court, but there are also many good officials who are honest and compassionate, you can't taboo the entire court just because Kong Jing is alone." ”

Lin Taohua smiled, "Why is Brother Yang reluctant to join the ranks?" ”

Yue Yang was silent for a moment, then looked at Zhou Ming who came and said with a smile: "I'm also more selfish." Hehe, your father-in-law is here, there is no need to keep it in your heart, just ask him directly if you want to know the answer. With that, he left.

When Zhou Ming came closer, Lin Taohua was looking at Yue Yang and didn't know what he was thinking, so he asked softly, "What are you looking at?" ”

Lin Taohua muttered: "I seem to have disturbed Yue Yang's good mood." ”

"And what did you just tell him?"

Lin Taohua bit her lip, turned her head and asked him, "Brother Ming, do you like to be an official?" ”

Zhou Ming's eyes flashed, and he determined the source of her frustration, so he smiled: "Isn't it good to be an official?" Shinong industry and commerce, once the clouds are green, our entire family will have glory, and the status is not the same as now. In the future, if I am fortunate enough to enter the picture, you will be the lady of the imperial seal, isn't it good? ”

Lin Taohua snorted unhappily and said coldly: "Even if you become a first-class master, what about it?" In the eyes of those old nobles, it is just a cold family. He also said that I should be asked to do what Mrs. Decree, and when the time comes, I will catch my son-in-law under the list of high-ranking officials and nobles, hmph, the day you will be in the top three is when I will leave the court. ”

Zhou Ming smiled, "The lady can spare her husband, if your words reach the ears of your father, if the letter of resignation reaches the hands of the mother, the husband will be killed in the ancestral hall." ”

Lin Taohua said with a tense face: "That's your father and mother......"

As soon as she started talking, Zhou Ming smiled, and his eyes looked directly into her eyes. Lin Taohua only felt that the pressure had doubled, and she hung her head uncomfortably, twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers, and she regretted talking nonsense.

She looked well-behaved and cowardly, Zhou Ming couldn't lose his temper even if he was unhappy in his heart, and sighed slightly: "Daddy's heart for you can show the sun and the moon, and you can't talk nonsense with your elders in the future, you know?" ”

Lin Taohua nodded hurriedly, seeing the stern momentum of a gentle person, she suddenly didn't dare to say anything more on the topic of entering the office.

"I'll go to the kitchen and have a look." She got up and wanted to run away.

Zhou Ming grabbed her hand, looked at it carefully, and then said helplessly: "I didn't do anything, why are you afraid of me?" ”

Lin Taohua hung her head, and it took a long time before she said to herself that she was afraid that Xianggong would not like me.

Zhou Ming didn't speak, and directly pulled her back to the room.

Lin Taohua was a little nervous for no reason, shrunk in Zhou Ming's arms, and stumbled: "Don't, don't be like this, it's dawning." ”

"Huh." Zhou Mingwan, pinching her chin, lifted her flushed face, and whispered, "What are you thinking about?" ”

As soon as he said this, Lin Taohua was even more ashamed, and secretly scolded this guy for being a bastard. This person said every time as if she couldn't wait for something to happen, it was clear that his behavior was too ambiguous, and people couldn't help but think about it. Besides, she didn't believe that this guy really meant anything else.

"Life and death are broad, and Zicheng said; Hold the hand of the son, and grow old with the son. My heart for you was the same ten years ago, and it is the same now, and it will not change in the future. Peach Blossom, do you treat me the same way? ”

The affectionate voice wrapped around Lin Taohua's ears, and the bodies that were clinging to each other became closer and closer.

"Hmm." She answered softly, and then ushered in Zhou Ming's delicate kiss.

After kissing for a long time, Zhou Ming let go of her, both of them were a little short of breath, and they were both silent.

"You can let me think about it." Zhou Ming calmed down the restlessness of his body slightly, touched Lin Taohua's hair and said softly.

Lin Taohua looked up at Zhou Ming, her expression was a little tangled, and she only replied with a good word after muttering for a while.

The two of them kept warm in the room for a while before they both went out, and at that time, Zhou Wen had already begun to beckon everyone to serve dishes to eat.

Today's lunch may not be very rich, but it is enough. Zhou Hui, Hu Yiren, Zhou Wang's family and Xingge's daughter-in-law Gao Juxiang served meals with their hands and feet, and in a thank you, the Zhou family's manor construction project officially started.

"Oh, I forgot Brother Yang'er's wine." Lin Taohua patted her head and turned back to the room.

Zhou Ming smiled and sat down first.

"Coaxed?" Yue Yang glanced at him and asked leisurely.

Zhou Ming smiled lightly: "For the time being, I have to think about this matter carefully." ”

"Heh, could it be that Brother Ming really has a heart that worries about the country and the people?" Yue Yang looked at him with suspicion.

Zhou Ming looked Yue Yang up and down, and asked rhetorically, "I look like a selfish ghost with a cold heart and cold lungs?" ”

Yue Yang didn't bother to pay attention to him, but Yu Ning, who was standing aside to set up the dining table, said with a smile: "It's not about being cold-hearted and cold-hearted, it's just that compared to Qiancheng and Wanmin, Brother Ming seems to love beauties more." ”

"Haha, that's to the point." Yue Yang shook his fan and smiled.

Zhou Ming smiled and didn't deny it, but said: "Just now, my lady talked about entering the office, Brother Yang seems to be in a bad mood, I don't know why?" ”

Yue Yang glanced at him and said loudly: "It's a pity that there is no beauty that makes me worry." ”

Lin Taohua just walked up to him, stuffed the wine jug into his arms, and said, "Then let's use wine to dissolve my sorrow first." ”

Yue Yang was not polite, he took it and poured it violently, and his informal and chic appearance attracted the attention of a bunch of little ladies.

"You bastard, I can't drink like this." Lin Taohua was in no mood to care whether he was chic or not, watching the wine that melted her body peach blossom being poured so indiscriminately, it was a slap on the back of his head.

The entrance of the wine, mellow and clear, with a strong peach blossom fragrance, Yue Yang's eyes lit up, and he was slapped by Lin Taohua just when he wanted to praise it, so what he wanted to say became: "You actually dare to hit me?" ”

Lin Taohua raised her eyebrows, and her eyes glared: "What's wrong with beating you, dare to spoil my things, it's you who beat, do you have an opinion?" ”

"......" Yue Yang was speechless, turned his head to Zhou Ming and said, "Such a Hedong lion, Brother Ming, you have worked hard." ”

Zhou Ming laughed, and quickly pulled Lin Taohua, who was glaring angrily, over, and said with a smile: "My lady's wine is the first time to take it out and give it away, it is very expensive, Brother Yang took it back and tasted it carefully, don't treat her generous gift lightly." ”

What he said was quite profound, Yue Yang understood it and said with a smile: "In this way, the pavilion master will not care about this palm enmity with the little lady." ”

Lin Taohua glanced at him directly, and saw that the two brothers Zhou Wen and Zhou Wu were taking care of the guests, so they sat down directly to eat by themselves, and asked about the construction method of the house by the way. When he heard Zhou Ming say that he was going to cut wood and build a house, his brows furrowed.

"Isn't there any other fireproof and moisture-proof material besides wood?"
