Chapter 254: The Meaning of the Drunkard
The crisp autumn of August is a gloomy month for most people in Dongpingbo Mansion, and Jiang Er and his wife are the most of them.
It's hard enough for his son to fly nine times out of ten, and he wants to create some momentum for his son to enhance his fame, but he didn't expect Xinke Xie Yuan to unceremoniously slap his face and swell his face.
For the first time, Xiao had a slight message to Jiang Er: "I knew that if I didn't pass on Cang'er's answers, I wouldn't push Cang'er to the cusp......"
"You know what, it was an accident!" Second Master Jiang was already angry, and when he heard Xiao say this, he became more and more annoyed.
He doesn't think there's anything wrong with making a name for his son, he can only say that his luck is too bad, extremely poor.
Who would have thought that at the Luming banquet, someone who was full of food and supported Cang'er would step on Xinke Jieyuan? Who would have thought that Xinke Xie Yuan couldn't even bear a sour word, and wrote his answer on the spot and threw it on the face of the provocative person, and even slapped it on the face of Dongping Bofu.
Second Master Jiang thought about this, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, but not long ago, Emperor Jingming's uncaring protection of Zhen Shicheng made him swallow this grievance silently.
In terms of official position, he is not as high as the family; When it comes to saints, he is not as strong as his family. If you can't bear to swallow your voice, do you roll up your sleeves and settle accounts?
Besides, there is really no way to settle accounts with someone in this matter, and the more it is involved, the more people see jokes, and now he is looking forward to things getting cold quickly.
Xiao's face was gloomy: "Master, what if Cang'er knows about the outside world?" ”
Although Jiang Cang's body has recovered now, he has been hit hard mentally, these days can be described as a widow, and he rarely takes a step out of the hospital, because he does not know the rumors that he has the talent of Xie Yuan, and of course he does not know about being slapped in the face by Xinke Xie Yuan later.
Xiao didn't dare to imagine what his son would do if he found out about this.
She couldn't help but complain about Second Master Jiang again in her heart, but she didn't dare to mention it again when she looked at the other party's ugly face.
"I'll tell Cang'er later." Second Master Jiang thought about his eldest son and sighed.
is obviously outstanding and destined to become famous in this township test, but because of bad luck, he became what he is now.
Thinking that many relatives, friends and even colleagues had congratulated him in advance before Qiu Yu, Second Master Jiang had the urge to bury his face.
Xiao's face was swollen higher than that of Second Master Jiang. A few days ago, she insinuated that Jiang Zhan couldn't support the wall in the mud, but turned around and Jiang Zhan became Jin Wuwei, but her eldest son, who had high hopes, withdrew from the exam.
"Master, why don't I go to Baiyun Temple to make incense one day, I always feel that there are many bad days these days."
Baiyun Temple is one of the famous temples in the capital, just outside the city, and the incense is flourishing.
Jiang Er is a scholar, and he doesn't believe much in gods and Buddhas, but many times he would rather believe in them or not, and Xiao Shi will not stop him if he wants to go to the incense to worship the Buddha, so he said: "Go ahead, add more sesame oil money." ”
The husband and wife were full of distress and said a few words that were not salty or light, and a maid came to report: "Master, wife, the eldest master asked people to spread the word, saying that they had received a letter from the Zhen family." ”
"The Zhen family?" Xiao Shi was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at Second Master Jiang.
Second Master Jiang quickly reacted and asked the maid: "Is it the Yin Zhen family of Shuntian Mansion?" ”
The maid replied: "The eldest master didn't mention it, so he said that Lord Zhen was going to bring his son over, and asked if you had time to pass by then." ”
"Got it." Second Master Jiang waved his hand to let the maid go down.
"Master, what does Zhen Shicheng mean by bringing his son to our house?"
Second Master Jiang remembered the snub he received from Zhen Shicheng last time, but this time he came to the door to inform him, and quickly came back to his senses: "Maybe it's for the Luming Banquet." ”
Xiao's face changed suddenly, and he said angrily: "Could it be that you still don't relentlessly find our family?" ”
Second Master Jiang glared at Xiao: "Why don't you forgive?" Do you think that the dignified and upright members of the three grades have this idle time like your women? ”
"But the master has nothing to do with him, what is he doing with his son at this time?"
Second Master Jiang's heart moved.
This may be a good opportunity to get closer to Zhen Shicheng, as for the son being slapped in the face by the other party's son, in the final analysis, it is just a matter of the younger generation, how can it be more important than officialdom connections?
"Prepare me a dress for a visitor." Second Master Jiang began to look forward to the arrival of Zhen Shicheng's father and son.
Not long after Zhen Shicheng sent the post, he received a reply, and soon took Zhen Heng to the gate of Dongpingbo Mansion.
Walking on the bluestone road of Dongpingbo Mansion again, Zhen Heng was a little excited in his heart.
I wonder if I'll be able to meet her smoothly?
However, on this occasion, even if he is only eight years old, Xie Yuanlang, can only pin his hopes on his father for his sweetheart.
But Zhen Shicheng didn't seem to be aware of Zhen Heng's apprehension, and didn't even give him a look.
The young man's heart was even more anxious.
I made a mistake, and I was only excited before, but I forgot to ask my father how he could meet the girl.
Listening to Zhen Shicheng and Jiang Ancheng's brother greetings, Zhen Heng was still in a trance, until the topic shifted to him.
"Brother Jiang, Jiang Shaoqing, this is a dog. I brought him here today to pay for it, the little beast is young and frivolous, and he will talk nonsense as soon as he drinks a little wine, which will bring a lot of trouble to your mansion......"
Second Master Jiang grabbed the conversation: "Lord Zhen's words make me ashamed, the dog and Ling Gongzi are incomparable, who knows that there are random rumors outside." ”
Zhen Shicheng glanced at Zhen Heng quickly.
Zhen Heng hurriedly stepped forward and gave Jiang Er a deep look: "The kid is not sensible, please don't blame him." ”
Second Master Jiang hurriedly helped Zhen Heng up: "Xie Yuanlang is really a talent, and the blue is better than the blue." ”
The world values inheritance, and in the second master Jiang wants to come, it is absolutely impossible to praise his son for being better than Lao Tzu.
Zhen Shicheng silently rolled his eyes when he heard this.
A person like him, who is rigorous in handling cases, does not like to exaggerate the most.
What does it mean to be better than blue? When he was studying, he was reluctant to even light the oil lamp at night, and he broke into the officialdom alone with his current status, and his son's conditions were much better than him at the beginning, and he should be dragged out and killed if he didn't pass the exam.
Second Master Jiang didn't know that the horse's fart slapped on the horse's leg, and praised Zhen Heng without hesitation.
Zhen Heng was very humble: "You have won the prize, the kid still has many shortcomings." Today, the kid came with his father to accompany Jiang Gongzi, I don't know if it's inconvenient? ”
"Well, I was sick on the day of the exam, and I'm still recuperating. Xie Yuanlang didn't have to be sorry for the dog, so don't take this little thing to heart. Second Master Jiang politely refused.
In normal times, the eldest son can socialize with a peer like Zhen Heng, and the second master Jiang naturally can't ask for it, but now he can only refuse.
There is no way, the eldest son has already been hit, and if he sees Xinke Xie Yuan being stimulated to collapse, it will be more than worth the loss.
Zhen Heng waved at Second Master Jiang again: "Then I bother you to convey your apologies for the kid." ”
On the side, Jiang Ancheng looked at Zhen Heng quietly, and said in his heart: This is what Brother Zhen was going to say to his daughter's son, it looks pretty good.
