MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 127

The city seems to be calm, but in fact it is undercurrents.

Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He have been watching the news in the city, not knowing what the Yanzheng is thinking, and they have settled in Siyang for four or five days and have not summoned any merchants.

Everyone didn't know anything about Yanzheng, and they didn't know how to meet people, so they had no choice but to follow the magistrate's route.

I heard that the threshold of the magistrate's mansion was about to be trampled to pieces, and generous gifts were sent to the county mansion one after another like wild flowers blooming in spring. Zhang Fangyuan thought that the Yanzheng hadn't taken advantage of this, and wondered if the Yanzheng knew about these things.

The weather is getting hot again, and there are many things at home these days. Xu He is worried about the salt industry and Ruijin.

Zhang Fangyuan brought the medicine from the kitchen, blew it cold and handed it to Xu He, watching the person frowning and drinking the medicine, he made a joke: "Ruijin is just rushing for the exam, you are so worried about it, if you go to other places to do it in the future Officer, do you want to follow your son to guard the place, or stay with me in this house?"

The taste of the herbal medicine is not delicious, but it is not too bitter at the age of a child's temper. He drank it in one gulp, and said to Zhang Fangyuan: "Brother Li is so glib, I think you taught it 90% of the time." bad."

Zhang Fangyuan was amused: "People say that he is smart and dexterous without a teacher, so he doesn't need the teaching of his father who butchers pigs."

Seeing that Xu He finished drinking the medicine, he patted the person's head as if to praise him, and took the bowl: "Is it bitter?"

"This medicine is boiled thick, how can it not be bitter." Xu He pursed his lips: "You are stronger and stronger, and you rarely suffer from colds and colds, but once or twice, soak your feet in hot water and feel sick the next day. I'm just like a normal person, so I don't know how much soup and water are too bad to drink."

Zhang Fangyuan frowned slightly: "Then let me try this medicine, is it bitter?"

"I drank all of this, how do you taste it? I don't want to boil more than this bowl of medicine. You can drink some. The doctor said yesterday that the medicine prescribed is for reducing fire and relieving fever. You can drink some..."

Before Xu He finished speaking, the person in front of him suddenly moved to his lips, and he gave him a false push, but did not push.

This person still has the same temperament as when he was in his early twenties. Over the years, he has become calm and sophisticated on the surface, but in fact he is still the same on the inside.

"Daddy, Daddy!"

Brother Xiaoli rushed into the house with confidence in his arms, and ran into his elder father's tall figure pouted at one end, covering his younger father.

He turned his head slightly to see what his father was doing, but his elder father was pushed up by his younger father.

Xu He blushed: "W-what's the matter?"

Seeing Brother Li's eyes widened slightly with a silly expression on his face, Zhang Fangyuan wiped the corners of his mouth and said, "Your dad has a fever and a cold, I gave you some medicine just now."

"Daddy is okay." Brother Xiao Li stepped forward and looked at the medicine bowl next to him: "I said why Daddy's face is so red, he has a cold."

He was about to touch Xu He's forehead when his father held his hand: "Father has checked that nothing is wrong, so what's the matter with you rushing in in such a hurry?"

Zhang Fangyuan didn't mention it, Rui Li almost forgot about his coming here, and his thoughts were distracted by his father's illness.

He hurriedly took out the letter to Zhang Fangyuan, and stars almost jumped out of his eyes: "Brother has passed the examination! Now he is a Jinshi on the second list, and he can go home after the palace examination!"

Zhang Fangyuan hadn't finished reading the letter yet, but he listened to brother Xiaoli succinctly explain the important points, which made him not in the mood to finish reading the letter, so he hurriedly asked, "Which place can you say?"

"The seventh place in the second class!"

Xu He stood up excitedly, the blush on his face didn't fade away, and it became even redder because of the sudden good news: "Okay, okay! I dreamed about the capital last night, and I thought it was your brother who missed home, I never thought that the good news would come today.”

Zhang Fangyuan is also overjoyed, it is extremely rare to be a candidate, let alone a Jinshi in the two rankings and still rank high.

Three years ago, no one in Siyang was on the list. How could the family be unhappy when something good happened.

"Hurry up! Tell Master Luo the news, he must be waiting for your brother's results."

Brother Xiaoli nodded: "Brother Xing also asked me several times."

Zhang Fangyuan originally thought that brother Xiaoli would show the letter to Luo Yan and let him know, but he thought it was only a few steps away. Luo Yan has taken good care of Ruijin in these years, and he had to follow him. Xu He made a trip in person.

"Master, Master Zhang and Fu Lang next door are asking to see you."

Luo Yan was entertaining guests in the living room, when the housekeeper came to report, he hesitated slightly, thinking that it would be inconvenient to meet with guests, and he had been able to come and go freely these years, so he certainly didn't care about it, so he asked: "But is there something urgent?"

"I didn't say it was urgent."

The person who was tasting tea in the guest seat put down the teacup upon hearing the words: "Brother Luo, if you have a guest, you might as well meet. I'm not in a hurry. I will meet old friends. Don't teach Brother Luo to delay the important matter."

Luo Yuxing came into the room with some refreshments, and first said respectfully and politely to the guests seated: "Uncle Yu, you have to try the green rice dumplings from Siyang before asking the servants to buy them from Sanxiju."

"Okay." The man said with a smile, "I remember that when I first met Brother Xing, it was his full moon banquet, and it's a sign of falling out in the blink of an eye."

The man praised Luo Yuxing, then turned his head to Luo Yan and said: "Even if it is placed in the capital, it must be a little brother."

Luo Yan said: "You, you still praise people like that."

The man was interested, half-seriously and half-casually said: "Brother Luo, did you pay attention to Brother Xing? I don't know if he is interested in the capital, or near Siyang?"

Hearing this, Luo Yan probably knew what other people were thinking: "It's really a shameless old man to say this in front of a child. Brother Xing, his parents left early, and I'm just such a little grandson, so I really don't want him If I go away, I'm old, so I can't arrange anything for my child, it's all up to him, as long as his morals are healthy."

Luo Yuxing stood by and listened to the words of the two elders, slightly raised his heart, but listened to his grandfather's words, he let go of his heart again, thinking that his grandfather still cared more about the person in his heart.

Ever since he was young, his grandfather's old friend in the capital had sent letters asking him about his well-being. Every time he heard the letter, he was a little apprehensive.

In order to prevent the two old people from continuing to discuss this matter, he showed shyness and said, "Grandfather, Uncle Zhang is still waiting outside the door. Did brother Ruijin write?"

Luo Yan's eyebrows twitched: "It's time to reply to the news after counting the days."

He turned to Yu Mingda who was at the side: "I resigned from office and went back to Siyang to recruit a student. He studied hard and went to Beijing this year to rush for the exam."

"The children taught by Brother Luo are definitely not bad, but I don't know who is so lucky. When Brother Luo resigned, many officials and nobles in the capital wanted to send their children and grandchildren to Brother Luo, but they never got this honor."

Luo Yan waved his hand: "The boy from an ordinary family is the next door neighbor. He is a little older than Brother Xing. He taught Brother Xing when he was young. That child is also looking for Teacher Kaimeng, so it is a fate."

Yu Mingda's eyes lit up, although Luo Yan spoke modestly, it was hard to hide the importance and liking between his words. Luo Yuxing is only fifteen, the child is only older, presumably sixteen or seventeen, at this age he can go to Beijing to catch the exam, this age is not easy, but Luo Yan's teaching is worthwhile.

"Brother Luo, why didn't he say earlier that the closed-door disciples are going to Beijing to rush for the exam. Although my brother has come to Siyang, he can write a letter to let the people in Beijing take care of him. It's better than the child running around without thinking."

Luo Yan smiled and said: "There is no need to mobilize people. Although this child is calm, he is still young. It is a good thing to have more tempering. If everything is arranged for him at the beginning, he will still be confused when he goes next year. "

"Brother Luo is too polite." After saying that, Yu Mingda said: "Although we both said it, hurry up and invite other people's parents to come in. How can we ask people to wait outside."

Luo Yuxing said quickly, "I'll go."

Yu Mingda looked at the little brother who was smiling dignifiedly, but walked out in a hurry, and suddenly understood, he looked back at Luo Yan and smiled meaningfully: "It turns out that brother Luo has a plan in mind."

Luo Yan just smiled and said nothing.

Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He waited outside for a while, seeing that the person who came out was Luo Yuxing, he couldn't help asking: "Is there a visitor at home?"

Luo Yuxing nodded: "It's been a while, Uncle Zhang and Uncle, let's go in quickly."

"It's not a big deal, Ruijin wrote back, and came over to tell Master, it's not in a hurry."

Luo Yuxing's eyes sparkled: "Just now my grandfather was still talking about it, I don't think it really is Brother Ruijin's letter."

He was not in a hurry to ask about the test results, and led people into the hall first, preparing to listen to the results with his grandfather, but although he didn't ask, but seeing Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He beaming, he thought it was a good result, nothing more than waiting rankings.

"bingo?"

"Okay, okay, this kid Ruijin really lived up to everyone's expectations and the old man's teachings over the years!" Luo Yan has always been calm, and when he heard the news, he smiled and stroked his beard several times in success: " Erjia is very good, very good."

Seeing that it was the same as what he thought, Luo Yuxing clasped his hands together happily.

"Congratulations Brother Luo, I am really happy."

Seeing this, Yu Mingda also wanted to meet Luo Yan, a proud student, but there was no need to be in a hurry, once he had passed the test, it was the palace test, and under normal circumstances he would not cut people, unless it was impolite before the imperial court, and the etiquette question could not be answered. Come up, the emperor's displeasure will be cut down.

This kind of thing happened often when donations were allowed to buy fame in the early years, but now students are not allowed to donate money to buy, and those who can come to the emperor are excellent people who have passed through layers of screening. Generally, the emperor's questions are answered fluently .

It’s just that those who are at the bottom of the test list may not be able to qualify for official positions. If they don’t have family members to take care of them, they will be assigned to a small local official if they are lucky. make arrangements.

However, Zhang Ruijin is a student of Luo Yan. With Luo Yan's connections, as long as he is on the top two rankings, even if he is hanging on the tail, it's okay. Went there, not to mention Ruijin Promising Promise, who was ranked among the best in one fell swoop, and Luo Yan of the capital province took care of it.

After returning to the capital, there will be many opportunities to meet each other in the future, but they will be colleagues.

With a smile and congratulations, Yu Mingda sorted out the relationship of interests, and even became polite to Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He.

"It's reassuring for you."

At the dinner, Luo Yan kept Zhang Fangyuan and his wife and Yu Mingda together for a small gathering, and it was also a celebration, wishing them to be named on the Ruijin Gold List.

He was happy in his heart, so he ate a few more chopsticks dishes at the dinner, his body is really not as good as before, a few more chopsticks dishes and a few glasses of water and wine will make him accumulate food, the moonlight was just right, he walked a few steps in the garden, and he also When it is digested.

Just when he felt that he had to give in to his old age, he saw the little brother sitting on the pavilion in the middle of the lake playing a fan and looking at the bright moon, and stepped forward to express his concern.

Seeing his grandfather coming, Luo Yuxing got up and helped the old man sit aside: "Grandpa is in a good mood today."

"Naturally, meeting an old friend." Luo Yan patted the back of Luo Yuxing's hand: "The student is in high school again, so it can be said to be a double blessing."

"Grandfather has been teaching students for half his life. Ruijin is smart. I know he will have a great future, but he really is. Grandpa is still happy."

Luo Yuxing smiled and raised his eyebrows. Seeing the moonlight falling on the pool, there was a hint of sadness in his eyes: "Grandfather, the capital is rich and prosperous, and capable people come forth in large numbers. If he is favored by some young lady, will he not come back?" .”

"He dares!"

Luo Yuxing looked at his grandfather when he heard the sound, and pursed his lips slightly: "Grandfather loves me the most."

"But what is obtained by force is not sincerity after all."

Luo Yan touched Luo Yuxing's hair with pity: "Grandfather knows that you are uneasy, but grandfather will not miss people."

Luo Yuxing nodded: "Yes."

"But this kid is also the same. He went so long and didn't say he would send you a letter back. He made you worry."

Luo Yuxing didn't comment, and he was a little angry that Ruijin didn't write to him.

Yu Mingda went back to the place where he sat down after a full meal. During the banquet, he talked wildly. He ate a few more glasses for a while, and the sedan chair on the way back was wobbly and could not help but doze off. It was time for the servants to call residence.

When he got off the sedan chair, he saw that Huang Guan was still guarding the door, his eyes became clearer: "Has the magistrate not rested yet?"

"Master Yu has been away for a long time and hasn't returned, how can I be at ease as an officer?"

"I went to meet old friends, which made the magistrate worry."

"I've never heard my lord mention that there are still old friends in Siyang, and I should invite you to a banquet." The county magistrate led Yu Mingda into the house, but at the same time he did not forget to inquire about Zhou Quan.

"It's okay, he doesn't like to socialize and have fun."

Yu Mingda took a light sleep on the sedan chair for a while, but he didn't feel sleepy when he arrived at the mansion, seeing Huang Guan seemed to have something to say, he sat on the chair and waited for someone to speak.

Huang Guan knew that the opportunity had come, so he said respectfully and cautiously: "Master Yu is here to do the salt work this time, I just wish I couldn't help."

Yu Mingda raised his eyebrows and glanced at Huang Guan: "Salt affairs are the country's most important business, and it's normal for the county magistrate to worry about labor. I don't know much about Siyang merchants, and I also know that the county is a lot of trouble."

This is what Huang Guan waited for.

"The next official will definitely do his best and will not hesitate."

"It would be great if the county magistrate had such a heart. You don't need to worry too much. Those who meet the requirements of salt merchants will be called together for the official to have a look at."

"Yes."
