Rebirth married the control group as husband

Chapter 119

Seeing that less than three days will be left for the trial to start again, Zhang Fangyuan is even more busy with his feet on the ground. He and Xu He just returned from the village that day. When they arrived at the house, neither of the sons was at home. Zhang Fangyuan called Licorice: "It's not Xiumu today

, did you go out together?"

, the young master and the young master went out early in the morning to watch the list."

Zhang Fangyuan slapped his forehead, turned back and said to Xu He: "These days I have been busy with the opening of the trial, but I have forgotten all about it. It was supposed to go with Ruijin to see it."

Xu He was exhausted by the lawsuit, and it was hard to find witnesses, so he had a long discussion with the lawyer.

The litigator made it clear that this is not the first time the Qin family has been involved in a lawsuit. These years they have been running rampant in the city and in Yurou Township, and they can still live so peacefully, but they have never lost a lawsuit. Xiaohu knows his magical powers in Siyang and is bullied I can only suffer from being dumb and dare not report to the official.

"The Qin family is not only rich and powerful, but also its cousin Qin Zhong is not easy to deal with. Many of the Goulan houses in the city were built by Qin Zhong." Xu He was puzzled: "Is it possible that every time something happens

? The Qin family uses money to solve the problem, and everyone is greedy for money, can't it?"

The litigator said truthfully: "The second room of the Qin family has a daughter who was born extremely beautiful and grew up surrounded by pearls and greenery. A young talented man in the city, looking for a good family to live happily ever after. Fu Lang knows how scheming and cunning the second house owner of the Qin family is, waiting for his daughter Jiji, regardless of how much the woman cries and makes trouble, he turned around and sent him to the county magistrate's mansion for sex. A noble concubine, but that's still a daughter born

in the main room." Zhang Fangyuan used to work under Qin Zhong, he took care of the building for Qin Zhong and looked good, Qin Zhongzhi once asked him to go to the house to order errands However, he had met Qin Xiangshui a few times by this opportunity, she was indeed a beautiful little girl, she was at the age of beauty when she married the county magistrate as a concubine, and the county magistrate was approaching forty at that time.

At that time, the brothers who had seen Qin Xiangshui were very sad.

Xu He frowned: "How could the Qin family be willing to send their daughter to be a concubine?

" How can a century-old habit be easily changed. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants are always ranked last, and ordinary people are just fine. The most important thing is that officials look down on merchants, but they have to rely on merchants to live a prosperous life." "The status of merchants is limited.

If If you want to keep wealth and stability, you must have a background in the government. The descendants of the Qin family are all sent to study, but it seems that the Qin family has a business instinct in their bones. The descendants love to cook shops, but none of them Those who embarked on the road of scientific research, the imperial court does not allow merchants to donate money to buy officials, so if you want to stabilize in Siyang, you have to use your daughter and brother." The

litigator shook his head: "In order to protect the family, there is no reason to be reluctant. Hearing these words, Xu

He immediately became clear. No wonder the magistrate was speaking towards the Qin family. Although his concubine was not from the big family of the Qin family, it was a clan after all. The younger sister pleaded with her uncle's cousin, and the second wife of the Qin family offered some generous gifts, so the thread was naturally connected.

The two cleared their minds, and the litigator also left a sentence, if he wanted to win the lawsuit, he had to make connections with officials.

After getting such an answer, both of them were in a bad mood.

"Daddy, brother has passed the exam!"

Before the two of them entered the house, they saw another carriage coming from the house from a long distance away. Brother Xiao Li poked his head out of the window, smiled and waved his hands, distracting the two of them from their thoughts. Pulled back.

Zhang Fangyuan's eyes lit up, and he asked in disbelief, "You got hit?"

As soon as the carriage stopped, Brother Li jumped out of the carriage before he could stabilize himself. His movements were faster than the servants who were serving him.

"Slow down!" Ruijin poked his head out from behind.

Xu He held Brother Xiaoli by his arms: "Did you see the name on the list?"

Brother Xiaoli nodded, "If it wasn't because of Tong's exam, he could only pass or fail, otherwise my brother's ranking would definitely be at the top, and he wouldn't be let down. I watched for a long time before I saw the name, it's densely packed, and there are too many references for this year's children's exam."

Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He both laughed at the same time, and the unhappiness of the past few days was washed away by the good news.

Zhang Fangyuan patted Ruijin's head cherishingly. Originally, he really never thought that the child would be able to pass. He planned to try the exam rules in the end. He never wanted to pass it in one fell swoop, even though he was not very proficient in the imperial examination. The thing is, I also know that Ruijin's age is one of the best in the city, so how can such a proud thing not make the old father happy.

"That's why I sent my servants to set firecrackers and buy some good wine and food to be lively."

Ruijin saw that the whole family was happy, and there was a rare smile on his face, but he also knew that the family was not peaceful recently and was troubled Things are entangled. When I went out to read the list today, the reason why I took so long to come back was that I sent someone to inquire about it. Only then did he and Brother Xiao Li know that the family had been involved in a lawsuit.

No matter how happy things are, this is not the time to celebrate.

Ruijin said: "It's just that I passed the children's exam, so there's no need to publicize it so much. It's good for the family to have a meal behind closed doors. There are not a few people in the city who have passed the children's exam this time, and no other family has seen such publicity. Let's set off firecrackers The momentum is huge, but it makes people laugh."

Zhang Fangyuan and Xu He glanced at each other, and they felt a kind of indescribable relief in their hearts: "Okay, it's up to you. When the family is busy for a while, I will take it with me during the autumn harvest. You and Little Carp go back to the village to catch fat fish to eat."

The family was quite happy enough to enter the house, and Xu He ordered the servants to go and buy some good meat and come back. Even if he didn't have the heart to eat, he had to have a hearty meal on a good day.

"Ruijin, I passed Tong's exam today, so I should report to Mrs. Luo in person." "

I know, I'm going."

Ruijin replied, went back to the house to tidy up, and took the book boy to the next door , When he arrived at the gate of the house, he saw a small sedan chair parked at the gate. He turned his head and glanced at the visitor. Seeing that the visitor looked familiar, he suddenly remembered that it was the housekeeper of his great-grandfather that he saw in the market that day.

Seeing that his father was not happy with his grandfather, he broke up that day, how did this day come again.

Feeling suspicious, he glanced at the gate of the Luo family, and when he turned his head and saw that the butler had been invited into the house, he turned back and returned home through the side door.

"I don't know why the housekeeper Pei made a sudden visit?"

The child passed the child's exam, and the atmosphere at home was harmonious. Now that the Zeng family came suddenly, Zhang Fangyuan's good mood inevitably dropped a bit.

The visitor was a guest, in the final analysis they were still relatives, Zhang Fangyuan couldn't keep people out, so he called them in and met them in the side hall.

"Master Ruijin and Master Ruijin hit it off right away. They missed the young master's Tongkao exam. Today, when the rankings were released, they specially sent people to look at the ranking. Master Ruijin is worthy of inheriting the blood of his grandmother, Miss San. He passed the Tongkao exam in one fell swoop the first time. The old slave is here today to congratulate the master."

Steward Pei waved his hand, and the accompanying servants came forward with two boxes: "This is a congratulatory gift from the master to the young master, and I hope the young master will continue to study hard. Read, the future must be boundless."

Zhang Fangyuan never even looked at the congratulatory gifts brought, his mother was still alive, but his father and daughter disliked her as the blood of the Zeng family. It's really funny to click the book and climb up again.

Butler Pei also seemed to have guessed Zhang Fangyuan's performance this time, and he didn't show any anger. Seeing that people refused to accept him, he didn't hesitate to get off the stage at all. He waved his servants and retreated with his things.

"I heard that Young Master Zhang is involved in a lawsuit. I think there are a lot of things to think about."

Zhang Fangyuan frowned, "I never thought that my grandfather still cared about the Zhang family's affairs. I really bothered." "

My family should worry too much ." Yes." Pei Guanjia said: "Master Zhang, I think you also know that if you lose the lawsuit, it's not good to write it down in the county government. Even the imperial court is very strict. The young master Ruijin can see his talent from the very beginning, and he has a bright future. If the scientific examination is affected because of his father's lawsuit, the loss outweighs the gain." "It's because you don't like Miss's

family Relatives and friends, are you really going to delay the future of your children and grandchildren because of your own whims? If the young lady is still alive, she must not support the young master's approach. How can the grievances of the previous generation be carried over to the next generation?

" I don't understand, it's because I know that I feel that the matter is tricky and annoyed: "What exactly do you want to say?" "

The master can ignore the disrespect of the young master in the past, and he can protect the peace of the Zhang family in the future."

Butler Pei paused, slightly With a smile: "The master is very happy with the young master Ruijin. I heard that the young master Ruijin was just a scholar who met by chance when he first opened the door to worship his master. He was not a master of the world, and he was not a celebrity. For the sake of the young master's career, I hope the young master will go to the Zeng family's school to continue his studies, and the master will take the time to teach himself."

Zhang Fangyuan almost laughed out loud when he heard the words, and when he learned that the litigator said that this lawsuit still needs an official background, it's not that he didn't think of the Zeng family , but thinking about the face of the Zeng family, he really couldn't arouse any interest in begging to come to the door, and Xu He didn't say a word about it.

But before he came to the door, the Zeng family came to the door first, and even wanted to ask Ruijin to become a student, so they relied on the attitude of the Zeng family's head of profit, if they sent Ruijin there, they would not know how to be taught in the future what it looks like.

My kid has some talent for reading. I watched the kid grow up in my hands. This time, he was able to pass the children's exam in one fell swoop. Not only is the kid eager to learn and improve, but it is also because of Luo Yan's good teaching. No matter how smart the kid is, Without the guidance of a good teacher, he doesn't think he can have such a promising future.

When Ruijin grows up, it should be sent to the academy and should not continue to bother Luo Yan, but Luo Yan has never said anything to chase him away, so the child can continue to study in the Luo family. Now that Ruijin has achieved a little success, he sends the child to another house Send: "Did grandfather want people to say

that Zhang Fangyuan crossed the river and demolished the bridge? " , there are many students in the city who are old enough to say goodbye to Teacher Kaimeng and go to the academy to study."

Pei Guanjia said: "Young master is a person who values ​​affection. It was really not easy for him to study and learn from teachers. The Luo family is willing to lend a helping hand because of their kindness. , This time I went to say that the Luo family is a good person, so I can understand it if you think about it. At that time, the Zhang family will send some generous gifts to thank you, and the master will also give gifts, so it is most appropriate." Seeing Zhang Fangyuan remained silent

. , He continued: "This morning, take Master Ruijin over, and the master can give the young master a banquet to celebrate the exam. It will be lively, and then you can take this opportunity to invite the county magistrate to the banquet, and the court will hold a trial in the future." Isn't it all a matter of course?"

"Grandfather really has great supernatural powers." "

Where is the young master, the fault in this lawsuit is not the young master, the local snakes are rampant, and the arrogance is not for their own family, but for the common people.

" He listened for a long time on the crossbar outside the gate, and when he heard his little father bringing tea with him, he hurriedly backed away and hid in the dark, and waited until Xu He entered the room before turning around and preparing to go Luo Yan's home.

Turning around, he collided with the person hiding behind, Brother Li rubbed his forehead: "Brother, you can't slow down!" "Why are you here?" "I saw you sneaking around

here

for a long time, Come and join in the fun."

Ruijin frowned, and dragged Brother Li to the garden.

"Brother, do you intend to agree to the request of the person who came today and go to study at that great-grandfather's house?"

Brother Li yelled after leaving the eaves of the corridor.

Ruijin took a look at the person, and although he had a bluffing temper, he knew what he was thinking when he frowned, probably this was the sympathy between twins.

"The people can't compete with businessmen, and businessmen can't compete with officials." Ruijin said: "If I lose the lawsuit, it will not only affect my future scientific research, but my father will also have a reputation for bad business competition and provocative troubles. How to do it. The Qin family is vicious, they want to cut off our family's official career, but also want to cut off our family's business route, and it will affect the whole body." "But the

master has treated me and my brother well in recent years, how can we leave the master now? It's not to make Master feel cold, and Daddy hates the Zeng family so much."

Ruijin said: "This is the trouble. I'll take advantage of the past to report the results, talk to Master, and find a solution."

Brother Xiaoli Er sighed, and nodded sensiblely.

"It's good to pass. Many officials and eunuchs in the capital donate money to buy students. Although it will not hinder the future scientific examinations, it is best to start from the beginning step by step. And the children who donate are only ten years old. You can go to the college test in the future, since you have passed the test on your own, you will not be hindered, and you will be able to pass the test earlier than others." Ruijin cupped his hands: "To be able to pass the

children's test in one fell swoop, it is because of the master's teaching, otherwise How did Ruijin come here today?"

Luo Yan waved his hand, stroked his beard slightly and said with a smile: "You are tenacious and eager to learn, and you can rely on yourself for everything, but this is the first step. You can't slack off in the future, and it is reasonable to move forward step by step. "

"Ruijin would like to listen to the teachings."

Zhang Ruijin is not a student taught by Luo Yan, and he has many students under his command, but it is the first student who makes him feel happy just after passing the child's exam. I don't know whether it is How about being old. But looking at it carefully, this kid doesn't like to make publicity, and he doesn't seem to be impetuous and happy like his peers. This kind of disposition is what he is most optimistic about.

It's not that he has never seen a talented person, but such a child often uses his talent to amuse cats and dogs, play with things and lose his mind, and finally bury his talent.

Whether it will go far in the future depends on the character of mind.

"Brother Xing is very happy to hear that you have passed the Tongkao. He is making cakes with the cook in the back kitchen. You can stay and use some before leaving."

Ruijin responded, taking a sip of tea from the side .

Luo Yan saw that the taciturn Ruijin was somewhat different from the past, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Brother Xiao Xing didn't see you happy, but the joy of passing the children's exam also disappeared?" Ruijin put down the teacup: "

Definitely That's not the case."

"Is there something on your mind?"

Ruijin paused, but still opened his mouth to talk about the family affairs.

"This matter is quite an uproar in the city. Tong Kao Bubang just covered up the limelight today, and I have heard about it a little bit. Has your father come up with a countermeasure?" Ruijin said: "Master treats

Ruijin's kindness as much as a mountain. Dare not hide anything."

He picked the most important part of the serious relationship in the matter and said, "Great-grandfather wants me to study under him, so that the two families can have more contacts. Daddy is considering this matter, but Daddy doesn't like the great-grandfather's family. I don't know what to do."

Hearing the words, Luo Yan collected his leisurely look, and put down the teacup in his hand: "The new Tongzhi transferred to Siyang is your great-grandfather?"

Ruijin nodded: "Daddy seldom mentions grandma's natal family. I just found out about it."

Luo Yan took a breath, and then let it out with a frown. He didn't expect things to turn out like this. Seeing Ruijin's frowning, he couldn't help accepting the previous words. joy.

The Zeng family is a family of officials and officials. Seeing that one of the descendants has a promising future, it is common to want to recruit and train them. This is a common way for officials and officials. Merchants value profits, and officials do everything they can to stabilize their positions. pole.

It's just... coming to snatch someone from him, this incident inevitably made him feel unhappy.
