Chapter 586: Let's Go Home
In the next few days, Du Jinning followed Yao Shuqi around to look around the house and fields. These fields also came out of Shi Yun, and they were all in the names of the officials who were originally raided, and they were taken back by the household department and re-sold, so there were some good fields that were connected together. In the end, Du Jinning bought a house in the east of the city, as well as 200 acres of land outside the city and a small village.
The area of the house is quite large, although the scenery inside is not as exquisite as the garden built by Du Jinning, but there are rockeries and ponds, green trees, but there are not many houses, it is more in line with Du Jinning's mind, and it is perfect to renovate and transform after living in.
In addition to the house and the field, Du Jinning bought two more shops under the introduction of the Chinese. One was going to make a dim sum shop for the Xie family, and the other was to Zhuang Yue, whatever he wanted.
The teahouse and bookstore originally cooperated with Liang Xiankuan to open many branches in the capital, and Du Jinning did not plan to open them again. She has a tea garden in her hand, and the teahouses and bookstores everywhere make a lot of money, and she now focuses on the imperial examination, so she doesn't plan to invest any more energy in making money, and everything is taken care of by Zhuang Yue.
During this period, Xu Chengyuan also rented a small courtyard not far from Du Jinning's new house and dim sum shop, and entered a academy under the introduction of Guan Lehe, planning to settle down at home and enroll.
Du Jinning and Xu Chengyuan are both simple people, bought and rented the house, spent two days sending people to clean and repair, and chose an auspicious day to lead their families to move in.
During this period, Du Jinning went to Yamen at the time he had agreed with Guan Lehe, planning to go to Taixue to go through the enrollment procedures.
When she arrived at the door, Guan Jiaze was already waiting there.
"I've already asked someone to go in and tell the fourth uncle, and the fourth uncle will come out when he's done." Kwan Ka Chak said.
"Don't worry, wait for the teacher to finish his business. When a new official takes office, it's better not to leave early. ”
The two were chatting when they suddenly heard: "Brother Ze." ”
The two turned their heads to look and saw Guan Zhengxiang wearing an official uniform and looking at Guan Jiaze with a complicated expression.
Guan Jiaze's smile froze on his face. He smiled and called faintly, "Dad." ”
Guan Zhengxiang looked left and right, and felt that there was no place to speak, so he pointed to the carriageway parked next to him: "Brother Ze, let's get in the car and talk?" ”
"I'm not free, I'll wait for the fourth uncle to come out." Guan Jiaze had a wooden face, and he didn't even look at Guan Zhengxiang.
Guan Zhengxiang's face was faintly angry, but he forcibly suppressed it.
He took two steps closer and said softly: "Brother Ze, you are a child of my Guan family, how can you always live in the Kong family?" You go home and come and live. Don't you like my jade chess pieces the most? You go home and live, and Daddy gives you that chess game. ”
The corners of Guan Jiaze's mouth hooked, revealing a mocking smile.
"Although my life is a little miserable, I can't even compare to the life of other people's concubines. But after all, I am the grandson of the Kong family, and I don't have to worry about food and clothing by relying on my grandfather, and I am not so shallow that I sold myself for a pair of jade chess pieces. You still keep your baby to coax your beloved concubine, I can't afford it. ”
Guan Zhengxiang couldn't hold back his face when he said this, and his expression suddenly sank: "Brother Ze, who taught you to talk like this?" I'm your father, that's your brother and sister, do you have to learn from that street woman, who speaks harshly? ”
"Alas, the Son does not teach, and the Father is at fault. I am a child with a mother and no father, so I naturally can't learn to speak a honey belly sword, and I smile and smile in front of me and say better than anything else, but I stab a knife in the back and kill someone. I'm a straight talker, and I don't have so many twists and turns. If you don't like it, go back to your good son. ”
Guan Jiaze said, pulling Du Jinning and leaving: "Let's go, let's go to the side, don't block the officials and old men from working." ”
Du Jinning wanted to say hello to Guan Zhengxiang at first, but Guan Zhengxiang only saw Guan Jiaze in his eyes, and completely ignored her, what their father and son said was so embarrassing, she didn't go away, she didn't stand here to listen, she didn't know what to do, at this time Guan Jiaze pulled her away, she was desperate.
didn't want Guan Zhengxiang's gaze to fall on her, so he suddenly stopped her: "Du Jinning, you wait." ”
Du Jinning glanced at Guan Jiaze, turned his head and arched his hand at Guan Zhengxiang: "Uncle Guan." ”
"You persuade Jiaze for me to let him move back home. How can anyone live outside the house? ”
“……”
Du Jinning didn't know what to say. No wonder Guan Zhengxiang would do something to spoil his concubine and kill his wife, it turned out that this person was so confused.
Guan Jiaze grabbed Du Jinning and blocked her in front of her: "What's the matter with Du Jinning?" Family ugliness should not be publicized, don't you know this sentence? I have to explain to Du Jinning why I can't go back to my home, so I can only live at my grandfather's house? ”
At this time, Guan Lehe walked out of the entrance of the engineering department, and said to Guan Zhengxiang with a calm face: "Second brother, why are you here?" What can't you go home and talk about, so you have to shout here? ”
"I want to go home and say it, but this son of a, will he go home?" Guan Zhengxiang's face turned pale with anger, and he pointed at Guan Jiaze, with a hateful posture, "Listen to what he said?" Is this what the son said to Lao Tzu? Does he have any respect for me? ”
"Okay, if you have anything to say when you go home, don't be embarrassed here. You're not ashamed, I'm ashamed. Guan Lehe flicked his sleeves and took the lead in boarding Guan Jiaze's carriage, "Jiaze, Jinning, get on the car." ”
Guan Jiaze's movements were quicker than ever, and he jumped into the carriage after Guan Lehe.
Guan Lehe and Guan Jiaze can be rude to Guan Zhengxiang, but Du Jinning, as an outsider, is not good at doing so.
She saluted Guan Zhengxiang: "Uncle, let's go first." Then he got into his carriage.
Guan Zhengxiang looked at the bus stop that drove out of the street for a while, sighed deeply, and turned around and walked in the direction of the Ministry of Rites.
He knew that Guan Lehe was going to take Guan Jiaze to Taixue, so he specially came here to persuade his son to go back, but he still made an unpleasant fuss.
This area is the location of the Yamen, and some teachers of Taixue, are transferred by the Yamen to teach, naturally will not be too far, Taixue is separated from the Yamen area by two streets, the area is about the same as the Fuxue of Gui Province, but the building is much more magnificent, the roof beams are painted with Hexi color paintings and rotor paintings, and the main hall and color paintings are also painted with golden dragons, all of which represent the status of this school in the Great Song Dynasty.
This is the highest institution of learning in the Great Song Dynasty.
Guan Lehe let the porter talk about it, and then he was led by a Zhaifu into the door and went to the place where Xuezheng was.
"Xuezheng's surname is Feng, and he is a great Confucian in the world." On the way, Guan Lehe whispered a sentence.
