Seeing her husband nodding, Xie Yunniang couldn't help but be a little curious, and asked, "Last time, I said that he went somewhere to the north to be a county official, how long did it take to come back so soon?" ”

Zheng Shixiu said: "Where I went to Gucheng County, Xiangzhou, that place is only moving, and it is easy to get credit......" He was about to continue, when he saw that his wife obviously didn't listen, he pursed his lips and said no more.

With her this, it is also in vain to say that her wife, who likes the tricks played by Sangjiawazi on weekdays, the white camel elephant in Yujin Garden, and the competition of the Keju team, I can't wait for the four seasons of the year, summer, autumn, winter, every day is spring, there is no ice and snow, there is no scorching sun, the spring breeze blows the willows all the time, and you can have fun outside for a day.

Sure enough, Xie Yunniang just asked casually, and when she heard her husband reply, she didn't listen to what the other party said, so when the matter passed, she said, "Did Yang Guanren invite you to dinner?" ”

Zheng Shixiu opened the post with his hand, and sure enough, it was invited, so he said yes, and read the time to Xie Yunniang.

Xie Yunniang asked, "Then you eat together, won't you come back to eat that day?" ”

Zheng Shixiu and his wife have been married for several years, and the husband and wife fall asleep in the same bed every day, how can they not know each other's thoughts, so they said: "Where are you going again?" ”

"It just so happens that the evening lotus in the west of the golden pool blooms well, last time someone invited me to enjoy the flowers and listen to the music, I thought that you were at home without accompaniment, so I didn't go, this time it is rare that you are not at home, I want to take the opportunity to enjoy a ......"

Zheng Shixiu said: "What time? ”

Xie Yunniang replied.

Zheng Shixiu said helplessly: "Are you accompanying me?" Obviously, I was in a hurry to see the play of the Sang family's wazi, but you haven't returned to the house that day......"

Xie Yunniang laughed and pretended not to hear anything.

Zheng Shixiu had no choice but to say: "If you take Shao'er with you, bring a few more people, don't let the children run around." ”、

Xie Yunniang nodded indiscriminately and agreed, looking for something to go out.

Zheng Shixiu sighed and sat on the chair, but there was a smile on his face.

The children of the poor are in charge of the family early, he is the eldest in the family, his parents are ordinary farmers, and the qualifications of his younger brothers are also very average, and the other one is not only incompetent, but also always loves to cause trouble.

I thought that marrying the daughter of the Xie family would help clean up the family, but who would have thought that Wan Niang had a good background, good looks, and came with a rich dowry, but she was such a character, and it was no problem to take care of the housework, let her take care of her parents and brothers, I am afraid that if she didn't call the chicken to catch the mouse, the chicken feathers flew to the ground, and the mice were still running around.

Fortunately, the father-in-law also knew the situation of his family, and he knew the temperament of Wan Niang, so he helped him place several younger brothers in Jixian County, and with the connections of the Xie family, it didn't take much effort to take care of and control a few people.

With his father-in-law behind him, he could do it so easily as an official in the capital.

Zheng Shixiu's temperament is used to being the one who "gives", and does not want to be the one who "asks".

He was always favored by the Xie family, and he was already very uncomfortable, and he couldn't find a better way for a while, so he had to endure it strongly, hoping that he would be promoted sooner and return to the Yue family in the future.

Although he has heard too many well-intentioned or joking things in the past few years, saying that he shouldn't have decided to marry so early that day, otherwise, with his status as a role model, if he wants to talk about the daughter of the Zai Fu family or the daughter of a high-ranking official, he will bring one out casually, which is much better than the Xie family's family background.

But Zheng Shixiu didn't think so. In his opinion, this family has done a really good job,

Although he also complained about his wife's carelessness and playfulness, and occasionally thought that it would be easier if he had a capable person to take care of the family, it would be easier, but from the bottom of his heart, Zheng Shixiu liked Xie Yunniang's temperament very much.

straightforward, careless, as if there is nothing big in the world, the days are only eating, drinking and merrymaking, and every day is happy.

While thinking about it, he casually replied to Yang Yifu's post, and replied that he would definitely go to the banquet at that time.

I have been a classmate for many years, and it is easy to return to Beijing from outside, if I am not invited to sit down, it is really unreasonable.

***

A few days passed in a blink of an eye, and when it came to Xiumu, Zheng Shixiu looked at the door of Shichen and was invited to Renhe Restaurant.

Yang Yifu chartered a private room, and he was already waiting in it at this time, and when he saw him coming, he stood up with a smile and greeted him.

Zheng Shixiu hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and looked left and right, but there were no other people in the house.

Yang Yifu smiled and said: "Yanzhang is not in the capital, so I won't invite the rest." ”

His words sounded like words, but when you think about it, there is a lot of meaning in them.

Zheng Shixiu smiled, exchanged a few words with the other party, and sat down.

The two sat down and talked about the past, and talked about their respective experiences in the past two years, and they had to take out their former classmates to discuss it over wine and food.

Yang Yifu said with a smile: "A few of us that day, each of us had our own chances, but if we want to rise fast, it should be Yanzhang, and we can't climb him together......" Speaking of this, he paused, added another sentence, and said, "Only Brother Shi Xiu can compare with one of them!" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zheng Shixiu as if inadvertently.

Zheng Shixiu ate wine for a long time, he was already slightly drunk, he was a straightforward person, and when he heard Yang Yifu say this, he only smiled and said: "He is the champion, and he has done so many things in Ganzhou, and it is normal to rise quickly, do you know what some people in the court say about him?" ”

Yang Yifu shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Zheng Shixiu said with a smile: "The Gong Si said that he was 'inhuman'!" ”

Yang Yifu laughed loudly, but his eyes flickered slightly.

I haven't seen him for two years, and Zheng Shixiu has changed compared with before.

If the other party heard someone say this back then, his face would immediately look bad.

But today, it seems that it is not the same thing.

Is this learning to cover up, or is it just really convinced of that Gu Yanzhang?

Yang Yifu pinched the wine glass, feeling a little irritable in his heart.

Zheng Shixiu is now a Beijing official, and he can hear the meaning of Lord Yueshan, and the Son of Heaven attaches great importance to him, if it continues to develop like this, at most next year, he will go to the third place in the three departments to take a turn, and he will soon be able to turn into a court official.

And Gu Yanzhang is already a court official!

The three of them were obviously different from each other in the past, and their own family was faintly pressing the other two, but now it seems that they have fallen to the end.

There is no need to ask why, Yang Yifu also knows the reason.

My own luck is really not good.

If it was not the daughter of the Fan family who married that day, but the daughter of the Sun family, it should not have been such a result.

Because of Fan Yaochen's son-in-law's identity, his palace test ranking was changed, because of Fan Yaochen's son-in-law's identity, his family was forced to go to Xiangzhou to serve as a county official, and it was also because of Fan Yaochen's son-in-law's identity.

If you marry on the same day, don't be so hasty!
