If it weren't for the fact that the two of them were still sitting on the sedan chair, Xia Xia would even want to kneel down and thank Su Manxue for his great kindness.

She still doesn't know where Su Manxue is, but she is not worried, because Su Manxue looks very talkative, she is a young and beautiful girl, and she is gentle and gentle when she speaks, she has to sigh that God has mercy and gave her a chance.

After returning to Ji Mansion, Su Manxue hadn't brought Xia Xia over to Ji Jiuhua to meet, and when they had dinner together, a small guy came to Ji Mansion with a sign hanging around his waist.

"May I ask if Ji Jiuhua and Ji Gongzi are at home? I am a little servant in the prefect's mansion, and our prefect invited Ji Gongzi to go to a story. The little guy was neither humble nor arrogant towards the doorman of the Ji family, and the doorman of the Ji family did not dare to slack off, so he quickly notified Ji Jiuhua.

"Ji Gongzi, there is a little guy outside the door who asks to see him and says that he is the prefect, may I ask ......?"

When Ji Jiuhua heard that he was from the prefect's house, he immediately became energetic. His dedication to his career, not to mention the entire Ji family, even the entire Lizhou City knows it.

Now that the prefect has actually sent someone to find the Ji family, isn't there any good news?

Ji Jiuhua changed into a dark shirt, although he was not very solemn, but he also looked like a scholar.

When he arrived at the prefect's mansion, Ji Jiuhua tidied up his clothes again, for fear of offending the prefect again. According to his previous unlucky life, he was afraid that there would be an accident on the road, but now he actually arrived at the prefect's mansion safely and securely.

"Ji Gongzi, please." The little guy took Ji Jiuhua to the living room, the prefect was already sitting in the first place, and snacks and tea had been placed on the table below.

Ji Jiuhua knew that although his Ji family was the richest man in Lizhou City, business and being an official were two ways after all, which was why he had always been obsessed with his career.

The family is already very rich, of course, there is no need to earn more money, just want to have a reputation for the exam.

It's just a pity that he was too unlucky.

"I thought that Ji Gongzi would have to be in his thirties, a mature and stable man, but I didn't expect him to be handsome, worthy of being a hero and a young man." The prefect stroked his few beards, which were so sparse that they were faintly visible, that he put on an elder's attitude, "Sit down." ”

Because of Ji Jiuhua's fame, in addition to reading and studying, he rarely goes out to go shopping and meet customers, after all, nothing good happens after chatting with him and drinking tea, so there are very few people who know what he looks like, and even less is known about him.

"I wonder why the prefect invited me to discuss it?" Although Ji Jiuhua's career is not smooth, the reputation of the Ji family is outside, and the name of his father and mother can be used to fool people, after all, the richest family, as long as they are not corrupt and pervert the law, they have to give a thin face.

"Ji Gongzi doesn't have to be nervous. We have all seen the development of the Ji family over the years, but I heard that this time Ji Gongzi married a big beauty, and the house did not add a few gifts to your Ji family, and I was happy, but I was lazy. ”

The prefect is a good person, and he also wants to find out the truth of this Ji Gongzi again. After all, the biggest connection to Ji Gongzi is his extremely poor personality and talent, and he is still not very relieved about his own character.

"The prefect laughed, if the Ji Mansion can receive a gift from the prefect, it will be our Ji family's high climb." Ji Jiuhua's heart is like a mirror child, although he doesn't meet guests for a long time, but he still knows about human relations, "If the prefect is not worried about my reputation this season, he can often come to Ji Mansion to sit." ”

"It is often said that Ji Gongzi is only eight years old but has bad luck, I thought it was a joke, but now when I see that Ji Gongzi talks extraordinary, I think these words are true." The prefect took a sip of tea and was quite satisfied with Ji Jiuhua's humble attitude.

As everyone knows, Ji Jiuhua's heart is now full of little nervousness.

For the first time, he was able to talk about it smoothly and steadily, without dropping the cup or spilling the tea on himself, and he was so afraid that he would fall short.

"The prefect is serious, although Ji knows some books, knows some words, and can write some articles, but compared to the prefect, he is still lacking."

Ji Jiuhua and the prefect talked about some topics again, about current affairs and literary knowledge, Ji Jiuhua answered them fluently, not only did not offend the prefect in order to show abruptness, but also showed his knowledge.

The two were almost talking, and the little guy at the door of the prefect's living room made a report.

"Qin Pavilion is so old-"

"Old Qin Ge." Even if it was the prefect of Lizhou City, he also sold this person a face and stood up to welcome his arrival.

Ji Jiuhua didn't dare to slack off, and stood up with the prefect to greet him, he vaguely felt that this person was his ultimate goal today. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the prefect to pull him for so long, and it would still be nonsense.

"I haven't seen your old man for a while, and your body is still so strong, and when I find you at your age, if you can be half as strong as you, I will be satisfied." The prefect patted Qin Ge Lao's hand and ordered the little guy next to him to bring him tea and watch.

Qin Ge Lao laughed, "What else do we two old things need to say?" I just wish I could live a few more years. ”

Qin Ge Lao and the prefect exchanged a few more words, and Ji Jiuhua found that although the two of them looked a little rusty in front of him, their body movements actually seemed very intimate, and at a glance, they knew that they were old friends for many years.

"Elder Qin Ge, I have a reluctant request this time." The prefect finally got back to the topic, he wanted Ji Jiuhua to see that they seemed to be a little rusty, and let him know that he had accepted a great affection, and if he was flying in the future, he could also carry him again.

"Oh?" Qin Ge Lao's eyes were on Ji Jiuhua's body, although he had heard a few words from Fu before he came, and when he saw it in front of him, he was surprised that this person was really young.

"This is the son of the richest family in Lizhou City-Ji Jiuhua." The prefect held the tea cup and stroked the tea foam on it, "Didn't you keep asking me who did the last time I encircled and suppressed the bandits, but now I see it." ”

Elder Qin Ge looked Ji Jiuhua up and down again.

Ji Jiuhua stepped forward, saluted, and said loudly: "Below is Ji Jiuhua of the Ji family, I am fortunate to see the old man, and I also ask the old Qin Pavilion and the prefect to give more advice." ”

"You young children, you just talk nicely." Qin Ge Lao gave Ji Jiuhua a serious look, he had seen a lot of flamboyant people before, but it was rare to see this as if it was reported up.

Ji Jiuhua was even more nervous.

Even if you can't be added to the ranks, you have to make a good impression on the big guys, don't you?

He's not going to behave badly, is he?

Ji Jiuhua's heart floated through countless question marks, and he only hoped that his performance was not too bad.

"In that case, then I'll step back first." The prefect looked at Qin Ge Lao's expression and knew that he was quite satisfied with Ji Jiuhua, "You two continue to chat, if you are hungry, I will ask the little maid to bring some snacks." ”
