Chapter Seventy-One: Making Friends
A slightly deep voice behind him called out to him, and Qin Si stopped and looked back, it was a tall figure.
The person who came was dressed in a student robe, wearing a regular scarf, with a slightly dark complexion, a strong body, and a pair of resolute eyes, looking like a very decent person.
Qin Si took a few steps back and arched his hand, "Thank you, brother, it's the first time I've come here, I'm not very familiar with it, I almost made a mistake, but fortunately, brother, I mentioned it." ”
Qin Si felt that after saying a few words to those people, he had become civilized.
Bite the text and chew the words, there is really no way.
The person who came hummed, as if he was afraid that Qin Si would find the wrong way again, so he took him over in person.
On the way, the two exchanged names, "In Xia Qinsi, Xiaobei Wangren, a student of Dong Fuzi." ”
"Pei Min, from Surabaya Village."
Qin Si felt that this village was a little familiar, and thought for a moment before remembering, "Ah, I know, is it the famous champion village?" ”
A hundred years ago, Surabaya Village once produced a champion, and later it was called Champion Village.
"It's just a false name, and now there are few people in Surabaya Village who are willing to go to school for three generations." Pei Min said bluntly.
It's all because the person who was admitted to the top prize was an orphan, who grew up eating hundreds of family meals, and every stitch and thread was provided by the people in the village little by little, but when he got to the nobles, and went all the way to high school, he never thought about returning to his hometown from beginning to end.
Although Surabaya Village has the name of the champion village, it has only been sheltered for more than ten years.
Later, no matter how good they were in the village, they all joked that they should not forget to honor their ancestors, and the name of the champion was synonymous with the white-eyed wolf in the village.
Pei Min explained simply, and Qin Si suddenly realized, "I see...... I see that Brother Pei is extraordinary, and there is righteousness between his eyebrows, so he will definitely not be that kind of person. ”
"It's not easy to provide for my family, I just want to be able to support my parents and send them to the end of my life, and it is enough not to treat my wife and children badly." The man shook his head.
Qin Si was surprised, "Brother Pei has a son?" ”
Pei Min coughed, "No, my family is poor, and I just got married before the Chinese New Year this year." ”
And he's twenty-two.
When he was seventeen years old, he was admitted to the middle school, and then he was unable to continue the test because his father was seriously ill.
He doesn't want much, at least it would be good to be exempt from the family's land tax.
"Coincidentally, I also just got married a few years ago, and I am a son-in-law, can Brother Pei bring my sister-in-law?" The young man smiled.
Pei Min had obvious surprise on his face, "Son-in-law? ”
"Yes, my family treated me harshly, and sold me for eight taels of silver, but fortunately, the lady was beautiful and kind, not only saved me from dying, but also was willing to recruit me as a son-in-law, and didn't care that I missed twice, and still provided me with education." Qin Si said this, his expression was proud.
"I escaped death, and finally stopped being confused, and decided to get up to study in order to live up to my mother's heart and hard work."
The man was in awe when he heard this, and saluted Qin Si, "I didn't expect that although Brother Qin is young, he has a frank heart, and Brother Fool admires him." ”
The reputation of the son-in-law is really not good, which man is willing to marry into the woman's family like a woman.
Not to mention that the woman's family may not be able to raise her head, and it is simply humiliating to spread it.
But Qin Si not only said it, but also spoke it frankly, and it was easy to see his admiration and gratitude for his wife in his words, he was a true gentleman.
Moreover, Qin Si is a scholar, and the most important thing for a scholar is to clear his name and reputation, and it is tantamount to shame to say that he is a son-in-law.
The young man raised his hand to help, "Brother Pei is polite." ”
Looking at it this way, this Pei Min is different from those people just now, and it is worth befriending.
Although the two are different in age, they are optimistic about each other's character, and they will get acquainted with each other after a while.
Pei Min also didn't like the politeness between literati, he didn't know how to write poetry, and he and Qin Si could be said to have met late, and the two chatted in a remote garden, almost missing the banquet.
Gao Yuan panted and led a few servants to find them, "I can be regarded as having found it, I still want you to go somewhere." ”
"How?" Qin Si blinked.
"What's the matter, let's go, the banquet is about to start, you wait until you go back and the master scolds you." Gao Yuan scolded with a smile.
Qin Si said badly, and hurriedly pulled Pei Min to follow, "Brother Pei has to explain it for me when I go back, I didn't go to my wife." ”
Pei Min was a little surprised, "It turns out that you just wanted to go to the backyard to find your wife?" ”
The young man touched the bridge of his nose and generously admitted, "Yes, let Brother Pei smile, I really can't leave Madame." ”
Gao Yuan is used to it, and Pei Min is still a little in a trance.
For the first time in his life, he really saw a man who was afraid of inwardness, no, not inward-phobia, it was simply ...... Sticky!
Yes, it's clingy! It's like a newborn cat and a dog.
It may seem inappropriate to say that, but it's really quite like that.
Several people hurriedly returned to the banquet and sat down, and Master Dong could only glare at Qin Si in Chen County.
Qin Si hid behind Pei Min, sat down at the last seat, looked at the dishes, and waited for dinner.
I don't know if Wanwan's side is the same as his dish.
In the inner courtyard, Tang Juan sighed in her heart, asked the maid to lead her out under the pretext of being uncomfortable, found a small servant, gritted her teeth and gave a reward, and asked him to tell Qin Si after the banquet in the outer courtyard was over, and she would go back first.
Fortunately, I have money with me, otherwise I am afraid that it will be more embarrassing.
It's just that she didn't expect that young lady to be a relative of Mrs. County Ling, and Tang Juan had to leave before she found out for the sake of Qin Si.
Tang Juan returned to the stall, Qin Guangwei was busy, and he was stunned when he saw her come back, "Hey, didn't you say that the master invited you to eat, it was ready to eat so quickly." ”
"Something didn't work out." Tang Juan rolled up his sleeves to help him, "Have you eaten?" ”
"I'll eat it later, so I'll go serve two bowls of wontons, uncle." Qin Guangwei asked.
"He's still having something to do with his master." Tang Juan seemed to be thinking about something, but Qin Guangwei didn't ask again.
On the other side, Qin Si tasted the craftsmanship of the Chen Mansion's cook, and it was no exaggeration to think that it was better to make it himself.
"I heard that there will be a poetry meeting later, will you participate?" Pei Min asked in a low voice.
Qin Si had a headache when he heard this, and quickly shook his head, "No, if it's nothing important, I'll take my lady back." ”
Pei Min thought the same way, and when the two of them saw that they were gone, they went to find the teacher and left under the pretext of leaving.
A small guy ran over, "May I ask who is Xianggong Qin?" ”
"I am." Qin Si spoke, "What's wrong." ”
"Your wife asked me to take the talk, but my wife was unwell and left first."
The young man's face changed, and he hurriedly waved his hand to Pei Min and walked out quickly.
Pei Min was worried that something else would happen, so he followed.
When the two arrived at the lo-mei stall, Tang Juan and Qin Guangwei were eating.
"Wanwan, where are you uncomfortable?!"
