Chapter 41: The Rich Girl
Jin Xiang arrived in the garden after it was completely dark.
"Sister, I'll tell you, Mr. agreed immediately, and said that the tea money must be paid, but I didn't let you pay. Mr. said that when the time comes, let the scholars in the book club write a few more couplets or something for us. ”
Jin Xiang said a long time in one breath, drank a cup of tea and continued, "Mr. showed off our poetry competition venue to other book clubs, and as a result, several other book clubs in Jinling City also wanted to come. The gentleman told them that if they wanted to come, they would pay three hundred taels of silver for tea in the family, and they agreed without even thinking about it. As for the five families, there will be 1,500 taels of silver at once. ”
"In this way, it is not only the students of our book club. There are more than 1,000 people, to say the least. Mr. said, when the time comes, everyone will compare together, if this collection can publish a collection of poems, then it will be indicated on the page of the book that the place of poetry is in our flower line. ”
"Also, we can give them a pot of flowers by one of us when the time comes. It's better to symbolically accept the capital, it's better than bad here. ”
Jin Xiang finished drinking a cup of tea before stopping: "Sister, what do you think?" Is my brother a genius! ”
"Hmm!" Jin Ling nodded, "So the best gentlemen in Jinling City will come?" ”
"That's not it!" Jin Xiang hurriedly said, "The book club where my brother reads is the best in Jinling City, and my husband is also a famous Confucian." ”
"Is it the middle of the month?" Jin Ling looked up at the crescent moon outside.
"That's right!" Jin Xiang said with a smile, "According to Mr.'s arrangement, the game is divided into the first half and the second half. In the first half, flowers were used as an introduction. The second half, of course, was introduced by the moon. Here, whether it is flower viewing or moon viewing, it is excellent. ”
"So, there are poems, flowers, and moons...... Jin Ling paused before saying to Jin Xiang, "Do you gentlemen drink?" ”
"Drink!" Jin Xiang said with a smile, "Even if you don't let students drink it, you won't drink it in front of students." But our husband is probably going to sneak some alcohol with him. Because they're judges, they're not with us. ”
"So be it! If you go back and tell your husband about it, you will say that we will provide the best wine, and if they make a poem for the wine, they will drink it for free. ”
"Ah......" Jin Xiang rubbed his hands, "Good wine costs money, and there are forty or fifty gentlemen in six book clubs." ”
"It's okay! I have prepared the wine. You just do what I say. ”
Rui'er on the side couldn't help but interject: "You may not know that the eldest son, the girl gave her all the five thousand taels of silver you gave her to buy medicine and wine for that Tang doctor." ”
"Sister?" Jin Xiang was a little unconvinced, "Did he lie to you?" ”
"It's not! Don't ask! I have something very important for you to do for me. We will soon hold a big talent contest in Jinling City, both men and women can see, I need you to draft a notice for me, if you find it difficult to write, ask your husband to help write it. The sooner the better, it's best to give it to me in these two days, it's not suitable to modify ....."
Jin Ling told Jin Xiang what Bai Ri told Guangyu again.
After listening to Jin Ling's words, Jin Xiang admired his face, "Sister! You're my own sister. We're both better than blue. Obviously, sister, you are even more powerful! Sister, let me tell you, as long as this thing is done, you will be the most talented woman in Jinling City! ”
"I just want to be a rich girl, a rich man!" Jin Ling laughed after saying this.
Making money can cure all hypocrisy;
Having money can cure all inferiority.
When there is something to do, Jin Ling feels full of energy. No matter where you love yourself, money comes first.
"Sister, you should rest early and come up with such a brilliant idea, you must be very tired, you are not in good shape, you can't be too tired. I have to go back and tell my dad and tell him that we have a successor to the Jin family. Let him not worry, you don't know, these days he goes out early and returns late every day, going around to find someone to buy flowers. My hair is turning white. ”
.....
It's so sad.
During dinner, Guang Zhen kept talking to the princess about the prince's choice of concubine, and Guang Yu couldn't interject at all.
Seeing that the mouthwash was coming up, he still didn't have a chance to speak.
I watched the maid take away the dishes and clean up the table. Guang Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Father, princess, and princess, I have something to say." ”
"Say what?"
Princess Su Yuan of Liang was telling Guang Zhen that if the girl was chosen by the prince, it would be eight lifetimes of mold, and she couldn't help but get angry when she heard Guang Yu shouting in a high voice.
"You're done eating, hurry back! Mr. Wen has said that you have missed too much homework in the past few days, and you will go back at night to review more. ”
"I have something serious to say!" As soon as she remembered that Jin Ling was pulling her sleeves and blinking at him when she was leaving, she felt inexplicably irritable, but there was an inexplicable excitement in the irritability.
She's spoiling him.
A little girl's shyness.
"What's the matter?" Princess Liang looked at Guangyu's face, "Are you hot?" Blushing what? ”
"Is it red?" Guangyu raised his hand and touched his face, "I was in a hurry to eat just now, and that fish is a little spicy....."
"Then you hurry up, and go back to study after you finish speaking!" Princess Liang urged.
"That ....." Guang Yu looked at Guang Zhen with a smile, "Father, Yu'er wants to ask you for an official seal, and there is an announcement that needs to be stamped with a government office or your private seal." ”
"Announcement?" Without waiting for Guangzhen to speak, Princess Liang shouted in a sharp voice, "Son, you are out of breath." In addition to gambling money, now everyone knows to play the official seal announcement? Why don't you just let Your Majesty give you a holy decree! ”
"Mother!" Guangyu also raised his voice, "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense!" I'm doing this for Wang Zhaohe! You don't know, but Father certainly does. Every day now is painful for Wang Zhaohe! He didn't want to live! I just wanted to help him. ”
Hearing Guangyu talk about Wang Zhaohe, Princess Liang turned her face away and said that she would not speak again.
Guangzhen sighed: "That kid is indeed innocent, he suffered this great calamity, and he couldn't accept it for a while, so you can persuade him more." ”
"Father!" Guang Yu hurriedly said, "Father also knows that Wang Zhaohe's calligraphy and painting are the best among us. Yu'er thought about holding a talent competition for him and letting him win the first place, and he was naturally in a good mood. ”
"Hmm!" Guangzhen nodded, "It's a way." But this doesn't need an announcement, let alone an official seal. ”
"Father." Guangyu continued to smile and said, "You see that Wang Zhaohe needs comfort, and the people of Jinling City also need comfort, right?" The murder of the Jin family and the bloody case in the teahouse made people somewhat afraid. There is still half a year before the big court meeting. If someone catches on this and says that the father is not, what would it be? Yu'er thought that it would be better to take this opportunity to hold a real national competition. First, to reassure the people, and secondly, to select real talents. There are also Fang Cai's father and mother who said that the prince chooses a concubine. Let's also hold a beauty contest this time, so that Your Majesty knows that we are so dedicated to the prince's affairs, and he will definitely praise my father. ”
"What do you want?" Princess Liang tilted her head sideways and reached out to touch Guangyu's forehead, "You're not sick, are you?" ”
"Nope!" Guang Yu avoided his mother's hand outside, "It's me Chang Yun and Mu Yang who thought of it together." The rules of the contest and the announcement are almost there, as long as the father agrees, this thing can be done. But there's one thing, which we came up with. We have the final say on how to do it. ”
"Hmm!" Guang Zhen nodded, "I see!" Go back! ”
"Then I'll bring the announcement to you tomorrow, and if I can, I'll stamp it." Guangyu stood up briskly.
"It's okay, but I need to discuss this matter with your grandfather and uncle, and if they both agree, I can do it."
"Oh!" Guangyu nodded, "Then hurry up!" Wang Zhaohe is very painful every day, and if he does it one day earlier, his pain can be reduced by one day. ”
"Got it! Let's go back! ”
After Guangyu left, Princess Liang shook her head and said, "Don't listen to your son's nonsense, he hasn't seen Chang Yun and them for several days." This time, he went to the Jin family's garden. You'd better send someone to keep an eye on it. My son was abducted, and you don't know it yet! ”
"What is he doing in Jinjiayuanzi?" In the past few days, Guangzhen went out early, and he didn't practice with his son.
"What can you do!" Princess Liang smiled, "Say hello to his aunt." ”
"The Jin family's orders have all been refunded." Guang Zhen said in a low voice, "A few days ago, Jin Xing also looked for me and asked me if I needed flowers and trees in the palace. In the past few days, he has almost traveled all over Jinling City, and he has asked all the flowers and trees before. I guess the Jin family and King Qi had a falling out. ”
"That makes sense." Princess Liang smiled, "What your son said just now must be Jin Ling's idea." She and King Qi canceled the marriage contract, what could be better than marrying the crown prince. She is the daughter of a merchant, and she has no name and no point. It is only in this way that the upper authorities can pay attention. It's better to follow her wishes. Give her the title of the first beautiful woman in Jinling City and enter the palace. ”
