When Liu's elder brother Liu Min arrived in Tongzhou, it was not Xiangwu yet. Jin Chao was accompanying his grandmother to handle matters at Shexian Tower.
Her grandmother told her about Ji's trousseau shops: "You are young and still in the boudoir. If you can't manage these things, just sell them out for others to make. You will take a few percent of the dividends and sell those gold and silver buildings, silk buildings, etc." Shops, paper mills, restaurants, etc. that generate a lot of revenue can be done well.¡±
Jin Chao also had this intention. Some shops did not make much profit, but were very troublesome. Even if she wanted to take care of them, she was powerless.
The grandmother assigned two stewards of the farm to her, one was sent to the Xianghe Lingbi, and the other was sent to the farm in Gujing Township, Wuqing, which had been losing money for many years. Most of the management of the farm depends on the weather. Without experience, it is empty talk.
When things were almost done, Song¡¯s mother came over and said that Liu Min had arrived at Ji¡¯s house, and the uncle of Ji¡¯s family was talking to him.
Ji Wu was very happy and said to Jin Chao: "You should also go and have a look. It's boring to stay with me here all day." Jin Chao thought to himself that it was nothing, and he would wait until they had a feast to welcome the wind and wash away the dust. Just open it. Then he followed Ji Wu to Xikuoyuan.
Song's mother talked about this Liu Min on the way: " brought a lot of things from Hebei, several big bags of hazelnuts, braised Caohe donkey meat, Zanhuang golden jujubes two carriages were loaded with them. That's the case. A very caring person!"
Ji Wu said with a smile: "The Liu family has deep roots in the south of the Yangtze River, but it has nothing in Beizhili. He must want to please the Ji family" Marrying Liu into their family was not a fight. This idea. Otherwise, why would these people from Jiangnan, who claim to be famous nobles, want to marry into merchant families? Fortunately, Ji Yun was quite promising and passed the exam, otherwise the Liu family would have been even more confused.
Liu Min was drinking tea in the flower hall of the Ji family. Ji Yun and Ji Can were both here. An Songhuai even wanted to drag Chen Xuanqing to join in the fun. Chen Xuanqing was a little helpless, but unfortunately he was too well-mannered to refuse, so he drank with An Songhuai. Tea for the belly. I saw the uncle of the Ji family, Liu Min and Ji Yun talking.
Although Liu Min is a scholar, he is very tall, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and is very heroic. He was very happy to hear that Ji Yun passed the exam and asked Ji Yun what questions he took and how he answered.
Ji Yun said: "The Four Books are "Mencius" and "The Doctrine of the Mean"" but did not want to elaborate.
Liu Min smiled and asked: "Mencius said: From Yao and Shun to Tang, they were more than five hundred years old. If Yu Gaotao followed the way, how could he see, know, hear and know? "Mencius" It is also said that Yi Yin enjoyed the teachings of Yao and Shun; "The Doctrine of the Mean" says that Zhongni's ancestors recounted Yao and Shun, and Yiyin's music was recounted by Zuni's ancestors. Are they similar or different from those of those who know, hear, and know? Please investigate This is a test This question, how did you solve it?"
He has actually read Shi Wen! Ji Yun could only bite the bullet and answer: "The way of Yao and Shun was in the prosperous age. The sage Confucius found it hard."
Liu Min frowned, as if he was not satisfied, and said: "The prosperous age after Yao and Shun was not bad. Is it possible that the way of Yao and Shun is just the way to go? If the examiner asks you this, how should you answer?"
Ji Yun was sweating profusely. The questions in this year's provincial examination were more difficult than usual. His knowledge was only average. How could he withstand the question of being a Jinshi on the second list! He could only look at An Songhuai next to him as if begging for mercy. An Songhuai thought that he could not withstand Liu Min, so he turned his head and pretended not to see him.
The uncle of the Ji family couldn't even get in the middle of the conversation. He was just raising people.
Ji Yun turned his eyes towards Chen Xuanqing, looking pitiful. Chen Xuanqing didn't want to help at first, but when he saw Ji Yun helpless and bullied by this second-ranked Jinshi, he sighed and stood up, cupped his hands and said: "The way of Yiyin Le, Yao and Shun, the original intention is virtuous, but it is impossible to achieve the same goal. The Way of Yao and Shun is what all saints want to achieve, but the way to achieve it is just different, they are all the Way of Yao and Shun."
Liu Min was a little surprised, then he stood up and held his hands in his hands and said: "I have read this article about craftsmanship. May I ask if you are Chen Xuanqing?"
He knew that Ji Yun Qiuwei this year, so he went to see Shi Wen from Beizhili. He admired Chen Xuanqing's craftsmanship very much and felt that although he was ranked third, his talent was not inferior to the first two. I thought that with such good knowledge, he should be a middle-aged person who passed the exam.
Unexpectedly, the young man standing in front of him was such an elegant young man. Although he was thin, he was about the same height as him, and he looked even taller.
Chen Xuanqing nodded, and Liu Min felt as if he had found a treasure: "I read your craftsmanship, and I admire it very much! I didn't expect to see you here." He rubbed his hands very happily, "I saw the question At that time, I was thinking of another way to solve the problem, but it is not as subtle as yours! Haha You have to explain it to me in detail, there are still some things in that article that I don't understand!"
He is a two-ranked Jinshi.?It is incredible to be able to treat a juren with such courtesy. Ji Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Liu Min pulling Chen Xuanqing to talk excitedly. If Chen Xuanqing hadn't been here today, his brother-in-law would have made him shed his skin.
When Ji Wu came over with Gu Jinchao, Liu Min was still discussing with Chen Xuanqing happily.
Although Chen Xuanqing has a calm personality, he was a little embarrassed by Liu Min's enthusiasm. Fortunately, when he saw Ji Wu coming, he coughed and stepped aside, and everyone saluted Ji Wu.
Ji Wu smiled and asked what they were talking about, and Liu Min held her hand and said: "This young master of the Chen family has really good craftsmanship. I think there will be no problem even if he goes to the Spring Festival next year!"
Ji Wu said: "This is natural. He is the son of Master Chen of the Chen family in Wanping. The tiger father has no dogs."
Liu Min was even more surprised. He knew that Chen Xuanqing's name was still seen in the historical text, but he didn't expect that he was the son of Mr. Chen No wonder he was wearing a fine cloth trousers. Most wealthy people like Shu Brocade Hangzhou Silk , but I don¡¯t know that this inconspicuous fine cloth is even more comfortable and valuable.
Gu Jinchao glanced at Chen Xuanqing. He picked up the teacup on the stone table and drank tea without looking at her.
Jin Chao smiled, what happened in the previous life never happened, and she had no hatred for Chen Xuanqing. Since he doesn't want to care about himself, that's fine. It's really troublesome to get involved with the Chen family. What's more, when the emperor dies in January, the officialdom will be even more turbulent.
Chen Xuanqing seemed to feel Gu Jinchao's gaze, but he shrank unnaturally and put his left hand into his sleeve.
Jin Chao found it a bit funny. He was afraid that he would eat him!
She still remembered the first time she met Chen Xuanqing.
At that time, Ji Yun had just gotten married. When she came to have a wedding banquet, she wanted to congratulate Ji Yun in person, so she secretly avoided everyone and wanted to find him in her uncle's study. Unexpectedly, it wasn't Ji Yun in the study room, but a very strange young man.
Gu Jinchao saw that he was dressed richly or expensively, so he guessed that he was a wedding guest. But he was a little scared in his heart. Not only did he announce his identity, but he also called him a scoundrel and asked him to get out quickly. However, Chen Xuanqing did not move. He sat quietly on the armchair, holding the book in his hand. He looked at her lightly and said, "If Miss Gu family thinks that I am a swindler, just scream out."
Jin Chao still remembers that she was so angry that she bit his left hand, which was bloody, but he didn't say a word. However, she felt the slight heat in the young man's palm and smelled the faint fragrance of tea on his body. She suddenly blushed, let go of him and hurriedly ran out of the study.
That scar has always been there, that¡¯s why he is so uncomfortable!
Ji Wu and Liu Min talked for a while, and it was almost noon. This was to give Liu Min a chance to cleanse herself from the dust, so naturally she had to hold a few tables of banquets. The female family members took refuge in Dongci Room to have a meal, but Jin Chao was unable to attend the banquet because he was observing filial piety.
Mrs. Ji Wu had already ordered someone to make some vegetarian meals for her. Everyone came one after another, and Jin Chao avoided everyone and prepared to go back to Qidongpan.
Jin Chao took Qing Pu out of the flower hall and walked on the bluestone path. Suddenly I remembered that when she was a child, she used to play in Xikuoyuan. She often walked along this path towards the bamboo forest. After passing through a small bamboo forest, there was a small lake full of lotus flowers. You could pick lotus pods by leaning over the pavilion. .
¡I¡¯m afraid I can¡¯t pick the lotus pods at this time, and I don¡¯t know if the small lake is still there.
Qingpu also said: " I remember that there is an osmanthus tree around. You often collected osmanthus flowers here. You said you would go back to make osmanthus cake and osmanthus nectar for me to try, but you have never done it." She pointed. In front, "behind that patch of privet"
Jin Chao was not in a hurry to return to Qidongpan, so he smiled and said, "Then let's pick some osmanthus flowers and make osmanthus honey when we go back."
The sweet-scented osmanthus in early autumn has begun to bloom.
After Madam¡¯s death, it was rare for the eldest lady to relax. Qingpu nodded and smiled: "I have been thinking about this for many years!"
Making osmanthus honey is not difficult. Pick the half-opened osmanthus flowers, wash them and dry them, put them in a glass bottle, put a layer of osmanthus flowers and a layer of icing sugar on them and marinate them. Or use honey, which tastes great. Pour a spoonful of it on glutinous rice balls or pastries, it tastes fragrant and sweet.
The master and servant walked to the osmanthus tree, spread out their brocade handkerchiefs and picked osmanthus flowers. It took them half an hour to pick a small handful. Jin Chao smiled helplessly: "It's enough to have a taste." Her neck felt sore.
Qingpu said: "You are in poor health, maybe because you have worked too hard recently" and accompanied her back to Qidongpan.
Over there, Chen Xuanqing was poured a lot of wine by Liu Min, and her delicate face turned red. He groaned secretly in his heart. As Ji Yun said, this man had a great capacity for drinking. He used a small cup with ice cracks of green and white glaze, and Liu Min used a small cup of red glass, but he couldn't drink him.
When the uncle of the Ji family saw him, he would inevitably come to his rescue: "I think Mr. Chen Qi seems to be a little too drunk. Why don't you go for a walk to sober up!" He asked Gao Chang, the boy next to him, to accompany him, and Chen Xuanqing thanked him. , followed the boy out of the flower hall.
An Songhuai couldn't sit still when he saw it. The female family members didn't eat with them. He stretched his neck several times to look into the east room, but he couldn't see anyone. He felt as uncomfortable as a cat's paw in his heart. Seeing Chen Xuanqing go out, he also encouraged Ji Yun: "Take me for a walk too. If you stay here, your brother-in-law will keep you drunk!"
