Chapter 970: The Opportunist
In front of the two daughters, the Qin family didn't show a trace of emotion, but he couldn't sleep at night. She lay on the kang and turned over a few times, and Xiao Nuan said softly, "My mother is uncomfortable, so tell my daughter, don't be bored." ”
Qin Shi turned sideways to face the two girls, the lights in the house were out, but he could see Xiao Nuan lying on his side facing him through the grass that was sleeping on his back. Qin Shi whispered, "Mother is arguing with you?" ”
"No, my daughter is thinking about things and hasn't slept all the time." Seeing that her mother had been tense during the day, Xiao Nuan knew that she was afraid that she would not sleep well at night, and she had already made up her mind to talk to her mother. My mother has been a lot stronger in the past two years, but it is inevitable that she will feel uncomfortable when she encounters today's situation.
Qin Shi paused for a moment before saying, "It's so lively today." ”
"Hmm." Xiao Nuan answered and listened quietly.
"After such a big scene, I can't complain that your father will be tempted to climb for wealth." Qin's voice became deeper and deeper, "Three years ago, the whole capital knew about it, and my mother was still in the dark, and I happily took you into Beijing...... They are behind their backs, and they may not be able to laugh at their mothers. ”
"In this matter, my mother is not wrong. So because my father abandoned his wife and daughter and laughed at my mother, none of them are good people, and my mother doesn't have to care about them. Xiao Nuan comforted her mother, "It's been three years since this happened, and not many people still say this." Because most people are busy making ends meet, they don't have time to pay attention to what others are doing. If you don't believe it, not to mention that there are so many families in our village, how many things happen every day, how many can we pay attention to?"
"That's true! When I didn't enter Beijing, my mother saw your aunt holding a little girl of more than three months out for a walk, so she asked whose daughter this was, and let them laugh for a long time. A village lives, and my mother doesn't know that she is pregnant and gave birth to another one! "Pregnancy and childbirth are big things for a family, but when others hear about it, they will pass by in an ear.
I still take it seriously and feel uncomfortable, but where are others, it is already Chen Sesame and rotten grain, and it is boring to talk about it, right?
The Qin family, who was successfully crooked by Xiao Nuan, felt much more at ease, "I don't know what happened to Cui Qiao these days, whether she is going to give birth." ”
"Didn't Hua Langzhong say that it was the end of March, there are still a few days." Xiao Nuan replied. Cui Qiao was about to give birth, so she left Hua Langzhong at home to take care of him, and did not let him follow him into Beijing.
"This is not good, in case the child in her belly is in a hurry, she will come out half a month in advance. Generally, those born early are sons, and lazy girls are born later. After the Qin family passed the hurdle in his heart, he came to sleepiness and yawned.
Yawning is contagious, Xiao Nuan also followed one, listening to the sister in the middle snoring like a cat, Xiao Nuan also felt sleepy, "Let's go to bed early, we have to pick flowers tomorrow morning." ”
My sister is very interested in throwing flowers.
On the second day of the champion parade, it was still crowded, and Xiao Nuan's family also went to the second floor of the cotton mill early to wait. When the gong sounded, three young men came on horseback, and with a small stool by the window, the little grass carrying the basket of flowers immediately threw down the flowers she had picked all morning, and giggled if any flowers fell on their heads.
The Qin family, whose mood was different from yesterday, was also interested, grabbed a handful and threw it down. She was a little embarrassed when she threw it, but when she threw it out, she thought it was very interesting, and a smile spread on her face.
Xiao Nuan saw that her mother and sister were happy, and Xiao Nuan looked at the three young men who were walking in the rain of flowers, and she also smiled happily.
In the observation tower diagonally opposite, the three masters, Zuo Xiang, Jianwang and Lu Zhengqi, were also busy watching and joining in the fun. The three of them were all sent to the female relatives of the family, and as for why King Sheng came, everyone tacitly agreed.
Seeing that Xiao Nuan on the opposite floor didn't join in the excitement and throw flowers, the third master was very satisfied; Seeing that Qin was smiling so heartlessly, Zuo Xiang raised his eyebrows, and secretly said that this woman's heart was a little tougher than he thought.
Lu Zhengqi was commenting on Jinke's Tanhua with King Jian, "Cao Zhongjiao's article is very well written, but it's a pity that he is a little worse in the use of laws and dictionaries, so he falls behind Lu and Su." ”
Like Lu Zhengqi, Zuo Xiang also appreciated Cao Zhongjiao's article more, and he looked back and smiled, "Tanhua must not have read the "Golden List Seeking Chapter", which has been popular since last year. ”
"The Golden List Seeks Chapters" is a book written by Chen Zumo that teaches readers how to achieve good rankings in scientific examinations. One of them mentions that in order to make your essay eye-catching, you should also pay attention to the rhythm when making an essay that does not require discipline, so that your essay can be read catchy and win the favor of the examiner.
King Jian smiled, "Listen to this, Lord Li has read it and bought it for Housheng?" ”
Zuo Xiang's youngest son, Li Housheng, is about to participate in the imperial examination three years later, and no matter how busy Zuo Xiang is, he will find it for his son to distinguish whether its content is desirable. Zuo Xiang said, "Xi Ran read it, and it is quite beneficial." ”
"Oh?" King Jian was interested, "Tell me about it, my lord?" If it is really useful, this king will also buy me a copy of the unfinished thing, let him know it silently, and go to the tribute court to try it. ”
Chai Fang is the son of the prince, and when he grows up, he will inherit the title of the prince, and it is just a joke to go to the scientific examination. Zuo Xiang smiled, "If the prince asks Xi Ran, it is better to ask Zhengqi." ”
King Jian turned his head and asked Lu Zhengqi like a stream, "What does Zhengqi think?" ”
Lu Zhengqi entered the official position with the imperial examination, and of course he read the book published by Chen Zumo. Through this book, Lu Zhengqi concluded that Chen Zumo was brilliant and clear-headed, but his mind was used to figure out the mind of the person who wrote the question, and then how to do what he liked, rather than teaching the lifters how to integrate and solve the problem after reading through the Four Books and the Five Classics.
Such a person who hollows out his mind and is opportunistic, if he is an official, he will definitely not follow the right path. Fortunately, the saint was far-sighted and cut off his way to enter the office, and then there was the pressure of the county lord of Wenchang, Chen Zumo wanted to come out, and it was difficult to go to the sky.
But no matter how bad it is, Chen Zumo is also King Sheng's father-in-law, Lu Zhengqi will not be stupid enough to comment on his rights and wrongs in front of King Sheng, "Zhengqi is ashamed, although he got a copy of this book, he has not yet tasted it, and he doesn't dare to get an axe." ”
King Jian smiled knowingly, turned his head to look at his nephew Chai Yansheng, but saw that his eyes were still looking out the window. King Jian glanced at him and couldn't help but shake his head.
Their Chai clan likes money, power, and beauty, but there is only one Chai Yansheng. If he was making a play for the saint, the play would be too real. If it is true, this is even more unusual, if someone told him that the cold-hearted Chai Yansheng would admire a peasant girl who is not amazing and talented, he will definitely laugh off his big teeth.
Now Mo said that he laughed off his big teeth, shocked his eyes and moved his mind, there are many people.
