I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 554
The boy's eyes turned red when he thought of Xiang Changshou who died of illness, "Master, his health is already bad, and he vomited blood after being scolded unscrupulously by these people, but they still cruelly prevented the doctor from entering the house."

Although the son is sick all the year round, he is kind-hearted and kind to his servants. Not only will he not beat and scold, but if he knows something happened to someone's family, he will reward him with money to help tide over the difficulties.

"When the steward sent someone to the yamen to retrieve the master, the young master had already passed out, and those people were afraid of causing death. In addition, the master promised each family to pay 100 taels of silver, so they left, but the young master didn't Get over it."

Zhan Feiyu and He Nuan looked at each other after listening. If they were just doubts before, they are sure now.

After the little fellow saluted and retreated, Zhan Feiyu looked at Master Xiang who was walking out of the house with Jiao Lianyu and the others, "Master Xiang is so thoughtful and tactful, even if Mrs. Xiang is worried about being imprisoned, she will not miss the idea of ​​the Li family. People will make trouble."

He Nuan's eyes were slightly cold, and everyone said that tiger poison does not eat children, but Master Xiang didn't directly kill Xiang Changshou, but watched him die, "To prevent the clansmen from stealing the sheep, remember to put the utensils back in the warehouse, even the guest room The doors are all locked, how can I forget that there is still a sick and weak son at home."

Zhan Feiyu let out a long sigh, this is the cunning of Master Xiang, even if someone said it, Master Xiang could still defend himself.

Furthermore, all the evil deeds were done by other people, even if the troubles were brought to the government office, Mr. Xiang would still be innocent.

"Young masters, go slowly." Master Xiang was about to send people out of the yard, but there was another call from the servants outside, and the most important thing was the female relatives.

"Let them take shelter inside the house." Master Xiang hurriedly ordered the housekeeper to drive away the members of the Xiang family in the courtyard. Glancing at Qiu Huaixin beside Jiao Lianyu, this is the young master of Mr. Qiu, who can't write two characters of Qiu in one stroke.

The patriarch Xiang and Xiang Ningyuan wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble. They were a group of elders standing here, how could the female family members of the third bedroom of the Qiu family come to express their condolences?
Although they are not widows yet, it is only a matter of time before the court's ruling comes down. They will be in the same room with so many men at once. By then, the reputation of the Qiu family's women will be ruined, and the Qiu family will definitely blame Xiang Lao Wu superior.

Jiao Lianyu is so shrewd. Seeing the dodging eyes of the Xiang clan and others, he couldn't help but brace himself and say, "Please stay away for now, thank you."

"Second Young Master, you're being polite." Patriarch Xiang smiled coyly, but he didn't dare to do any more bad things, so he could only lead a group of elders to retreat to the side rooms on both sides of the mourning hall.

As soon as the dark crowd in the courtyard receded, Jiao Lianping saw Zhan Feiyu and He Nuan standing under the corridor at a glance, "Why are you here?"

Qiu Huaixin and Jiao Lianyu were also taken aback, no one expected that Zhan Feiyu would come to Xiang's house to express their condolences.

Master Xiang's complexion changed slightly. The little girl in plain clothes looked childish, but her eyes were calm. In addition to the poetic and bookish spirit, there was more grace and demeanor only the disciples of the aristocratic family.

No need for other people to say it clearly, Master Xiang knew that this was the only disciple of the cabinet bachelor who had been rumored in Qianzhong Mansion during this period, and even Mr. Qiu would treat him with three respects.

Jiao Lian made a peer salute, "Miss Zhan."

Qi Changlin, who was standing aside, was stunned for a moment. For scholars like them, Zhan Feiyu's opportunity was not even dared to write in the drama. Gu Xueshi's disciple even took the little Sanyuan from Nanxuan Mansion, and the little girl who made countless poor disciples envious and jealous stood in front of him.

After Qi Changlin came back to his senses, he also hurriedly saluted. They are both scholars, and everyone has a reputation as a scholar, but Zhan Feiyu is a junior, and those who are masters are their teachers. In truth, Zhan Feiyu can be regarded as their teacher.

The only one who can compare with Zhan Feiyu is Qiu Jinyu, but unfortunately that is a barbarian, and now he has become a pile of bones.

"Second Master Jiao, Young Master Qi." Zhan Feiyu smiled back.

When Qi Changlin knew that Zhan Feiyu and Jiao Lianping had a good relationship, he thought that Zhan Feiyu had a false name, and that the so-called "little three yuan" might be a fraud. You can't fake your demeanor.

Jiao Lianyu's eyes dimmed, Zhan Feiyu must have investigated herself, otherwise she would not have known that Changlin was really the same kind of person, and it would be great if she met Gu Xueshi's person.

Jiao Lianping was humiliated instead of being slapped in the face just now, and now seeing Zhan Feiyu is like seeing an alliance partner, who cares that Zhan Feiyu is only two years older than his son, so he rushed over, " Did you see it just now?"

"I see how stupid you are." Zhan Feiyu made a pun, but if he had a good mind, he would think of Jiao Lianping's prudence, how could he be easily caught by him.

"Who would have thought that he was so treacherous!" Jiao Lianping said angrily, and looked at Jiao Lianyu gloomyly, "A villain seeks his life, a gentleman seeks his country, and a man seeks the world. Therefore, a gentleman must not be as good at calculating as a villain."

"You really dare to put gold on your face!" Qiu Huaixin, who came over, was almost laughed at by Jiao Lianping's brazenness. He meant that Guizhang was a villain, so "no water leaks, it is a plan", while he was He is a modest gentleman, so he was framed and plotted by the shameless villain.

"Miss Zhan, tell me!" After saying in unison, Jiao Lianping and Qiu Huaixin lowered their heads in unison. They both looked at Zhan Feiyu, who was half a body shorter than them, and made it clear that they wanted her to make a choice.

Zhan Feiyu smiled and said: "The teacher once asked a question: Conspiracy is invisible, and it is always better than not fighting or spending."

The meaning of this sentence is very straightforward: to do something successfully, you must pay attention to strategy and tactics in your daily life, but you must have a strategy in the dark and not show it on the surface. It is best to sneak in the invisible , Only in this way can we succeed, and only in this way can we often win, and it is a victory without argument or effort.

Jiao Lianping was immediately complacent when he heard that, and looked at Qiu Huaixin provocatively. It's normal that he didn't succeed in slapping his face. His good second brother knows how to plot, and he plots secretly, stepping on his mother and himself to make a name for himself in Qianzhong Road.

"Miss Zhan is saying that you are stupid!" Qiu Huaixin sneered, looking at the complacent Jiao Lianping like a fool. This clearly means that Jiao Lianping, a dude, has no brains and is stupid without knowing it. Comprehensive, full of loopholes.

The sound of firecrackers was accompanied by the mournful sound of gongs, drums and suona. Jiao Lianping and Qiu Huaixin broke off the argument.

Jiao Lianyu and Qi Changlin, who were standing on the other side, did not come over. After all, they were not familiar with Zhan Feiyu, and they couldn't hear what Zhan Feiyu and the other three said across the whole yard.

Jiao Lianyu looked sideways at the third female family member of the Qiu family who came over under the guidance of the housekeeper, and then turned her gaze to Zhan Feiyu again. She was obviously a country girl who had only been educated for two or three years, but she and Qiu Huaixin got along so well .

This kind of harmony seems to be that they all come from a family of officials and officials, and they are born to be superior to others, and there is a harmony between speech and behavior that other people can't get in.

Jiao Lianyu thought of his usual relationship with Qiu Huaixin. Outsiders would say that they were close friends, but they didn't know that he was always giving in and humbled, and Qiu Huaixin was the main one. aware.

……

The Dou family and the Xu family were stunned as soon as they entered the yard with their maids. They rarely see foreign men in the back house on weekdays, especially now that their identities are sensitive. These are young and handsome men, if any rumors spread, they would probably have to die to show their innocence.

Qiu Huaixin didn't care about cross-eyed with Jiao Lianping at the moment, and walked forward to salute and say hello, "Auntie."

Dou's and Xu's secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately Huaixin is here, this can be regarded as their nephew, so he can't be regarded as a foreigner, and the current Sanfang is turbulent, and it really can't stand any waves.

"Huaixin, you're here too." Mrs. Xu took the words, with a loving smile on her face, "I heard that Mr. Xiang has gone, and we should all come here to pay respects."

Qiu Huaixin nodded and didn't speak again. He was able to speak out because they were female family members of the Qiu family. If the man from the third room came today, Qiu Huaixin would never even bother to give him a look.

Master Xiang also hurried over to receive him. Although men and women are different, this is Xiang Changshou's mourning hall, and Qiu Huaixin is here, so no one dares to talk.
