The Red Mansions

Chapter 40
While Jia Heng and Qin Ye were talking, it was already noon, Qin Ye called the servants and ordered the kitchen to tidy up the food and drink, which was regarded as a meal.

During the conversation at the banquet, Qin Ye sighed: "my son-in-law, I can love this daughter, but since she was young, she has been upright and has a sharp temper. After passing through the door, I hope my son-in-law will not focus on the things just now. "

Jia Heng nodded, and said: "Master Yuezhang, marriage is a major event, which is related to the happiness of a lifetime. Miss Qin has doubts, which is completely human."

He didn't think there was anything wrong just now, whether Qin Keqing had doubts about him, or the so-called "acceptance of fate", all were within his expectations.

Before coming here, I knew there would be repetitions, not in Qin Ye, but in Qin Keqing.

As for his words, he had just reached seven points, and the timing was just right. Qin Keqing looked at him from the past, and it was impossible for him to pat his chest to guarantee what would happen in the future.

It's like, when others questioned that he didn't have money, it was impossible for him to prove that he had money by showing all four pockets to others.

Cut the belly open to prove how many bowls of noodles I ate?This is Liu Zi's juvenile behavior, Zhang Mazi will not do this.

His previous answer had already shown to a certain extent what kind of person he was.

If you have the heart and knowledge, you will judge yourself without speaking.

What he will do in the future is to find a way among the thorns. If he has no insight and courage, how can he survive the calamity?

Moreover, for many things, Qin Keqing had too high psychological expectations at the beginning, which may not be a good thing.

If he finds out later, isn't he much stronger than he put it out?
Humans always believe in what they see and discover, and they believe in it.

The most important point is...how could he have no doubts about Qin Keqing?
Love, heaven, love, and sea are illusions, and love is the body, and when love meets, it will be sex... This is not a good verdict, but from the point of view, this woman who is beautiful in the red building and known as a peerless beauty is still somewhat contradictory Yes, he has both the strong side of hanging himself on the beam and the weak side of being submissive.

This is the real person... that's fine.

Of course, if he was rejected in the end, he wouldn't just leave in a fit of anger, but another plan, but even though that plan won the beauty in the end, but...

It's better not to make assumptions. A certain diplomatic mission in the previous life never refused to answer hypothetical questions.

The final outcome did not surprise him after all.

Jia Heng and Qin Ye were drinking, and they didn't know whether it was Weng's relationship with his son-in-law, or they were talking with him. Qin Ye also gradually found that the young man opposite him had a good conversation, and asked if there was any movement in Jia's house. tell.

When Qin Ye heard that the old lady not only did not punish, but also gave a servant girl to mediate the dispute, Qin Ye praised the old lady for being sensible, did not think much, but gradually suppressed the last doubts.

Qin Ye asked: "My son-in-law, you still need to study to become an official. Have you ever chosen a good school teacher?"

Although Qin Ye is a doctor of the Ministry of Industry, he heard that the fifth-rank official is not a small official, but he is in charge of the food department, which belongs to the turbid stream, and he doesn't know any scholars with a serious background, otherwise his son Qin Zhong would not After the meeting, I went to the Jia family to study and let Confucianism teach on behalf of me.

Jia Heng said: "My son-in-law was suffering from not having a good teacher and helpful friend... It's just that I was lucky enough to get a recommendation from a friend the day before yesterday. Attending the lecture given by the lecturer, originally after visiting Mr. Yuezhang, I planned to go there in the afternoon to take a look, and if everything goes well, I will do business and study in the prison."

Qin Ye was a little surprised when he heard the words, and said: "Wen Cui Pavilion of Guozijian? I heard that there are a lot of books there. It is a good position for the post of classics, and you can often contact lecturers and professors."

At this moment, Qin Ye recalled the four words of reading and martial arts that the young man said just now, and the sum of these words really echoed every word, and there was no falsehood.

What he just said to write articles to make a living, and the handwriting on the letter of appointment that caught his eyes, he thought it was lies, or someone to catch a knife, but now it seems... all from the hands of a young man?

"It's just reading and listening to lectures. It's cheaper to travel. If you want to be an official through the imperial examination, you need to study hard." Jia Heng said softly, without any look of conceit.

Just looking at Qin Ye's originally sad face, but gradually revealing a surprised reaction, he thought to himself, this is the order of speaking, which caused the different expectations in his heart.

If he had just spoken clearly when Qin Keqing was suspicious, like a peacock opening its tail, it might not have this effect.

This is Moisturizing things silently, saying Qizangsan.

Entering the civil service system in the future, these are essential survival skills.

What is receivable, non-essential, malicious...

Sometimes he can use it, but he can't understand it, don't know it.

Qin Ye thought for a while, coughed, his old face became slightly hot, and asked: "Just now, the old man just saw the words of the letter of appointment, the body of the pavilion, elegant and upright, rich and smooth, and he has got the rules, and I don't know who it is." Written by Mister?"

In this era, if you want to take an official career through the imperial examination, if your handwriting is not good, it is basically equivalent to the death penalty.

As for the letter of appointment, Jia Heng changed it to the style of a pavilion, with a round pen in the center, elegant and delicate.

Jia Heng put down the wine cup and said: "I dare not take Mr. Yuezhang's absurd praise. It is written by Heng, but it has not been written for a long time, and my hand is raw. It is generous to laugh at it."

For things like pavilion style, official document writing is indispensable. Out of curiosity in the previous life, I still copied Er Shen's post.

Hearing this, Qin Ye twirled his beard with his hands, and finally had a real smile on his face, and said, "It's rare, it's rare."

There is no need to ask about the rest, the words are not incomplete at the moment, they are honest and credible, and what is especially rare is that they do not have the impetuosity of young people.

As for fame and wealth, as long as you are willing to study and make progress, you will see it in the future.

However, the matter has come to this point, and if I think about it again and again, it will not work. As my daughter said, whether it is good or bad, everything depends on life.

After all, I promised others at the beginning.

The two ate food again, and they drank tea and talked until it was not right time. Jia Heng looked at the sky, got up, saluted and said, "Yue Zhang, it's getting late, and my son-in-law has to go to the Guozijian. The day after tomorrow Come visit again."

Qin Ye nodded and said with a smile: "My son-in-law, let's go, Ah Fu, send this old man off."

Even though he said so, Qin Ye still sent him to the eaves of the corridor.

Jia Heng cupped his hands at Qin Ye and said goodbye, and then, led by his servants, he left the Qin Mansion and rode the donkey cart driven by Li He out of the alley.

After Jia Heng left, Qin Ye turned around and went back to the living room, and said to Nanny Wu, "Where's Qing?"

"Young lady is sitting in the back hall. She just had some food." Nanny Wu said with a smile.

Qin Ye thought for a while, then lifted the curtain to enter the back hall, and saw his daughter sitting beside the small table, holding an orange cat, looking bored.

"Father..." Qin Keqing raised her charming face, with complex expressions in her beautiful eyes, and asked, "He... is gone?"

Qin Ye handed the letter of appointment to the little table next to Qin Keqing, and said with a smile: "You should have heard what Cai just said, and as a father, he doesn't look like a young man who doesn't know how to make progress. Don't listen to the words of the market. Besides, you said that you were the one who fulfilled your promise, but just now... this time and again, it made people feel bad. "

Saying this, he glanced at Baozhu and Ruizhu, and reprimanded him: "Every day you talk nonsense in the girl's ear. If you hear that the wind is like rain, if you inquire about something incomplete, come and instigate the girl! If you repeat it a few times, the girl's Famous festivals, everything will be buried in your hands!"

Baozhu and Ruizhu lowered their heads, reluctant to answer.

Qin Keqing's charming and charming eyebrows were lowered, and Xue Ni's cheeks were also a little blushing, and she said softly: "My daughter said earlier, whether he is good or bad, I will accept my fate."

As he said that, he opened the letter of appointment, looked at the handwriting on it, and thought to himself, is this really written by him?
If it is a warrior who is brave and ruthless, he must not have this handwriting...

"Forget it, forget it, whether it's true or false, whether it's good or bad, as long as he treats me well... that's fine, no matter how uncertain your thoughts are, if you sway from side to side, you'll really lose face." Qin Keqing's eyes were lost, and she sighed inwardly.
