Daohuaxuan.
Zhou Jingwan sat leisurely under the flower shed, admiring the blooming flowers in the courtyard and eating refreshments.
"Daohua, your snacks are so delicious. Where did you buy them?" After getting to know each other, Zhou Jingwan directly called Daohua by her nickname.
The two girls are about the same age, and they are not called sister.
Wang Maner smiled and replied: "My girl made the snacks herself. I knew she was coming and prepared them in advance."
Hearing this, Zhou Jingwan looked at Daohua in surprise: "Really?"
Daohua smiled: "My grandmother loves to eat soft and glutinous desserts. Whenever I have time, I will make some."
Zhou Jingwan looked admiring: "Daohua, you are really amazing. There is no one else with this cooking skill."
Daohua: "That's an exaggeration, but it's just that practice makes perfect." Her cooking skills are really nothing, the main thing is that she has good ingredients.
Zhou Jingwan quickly finished the sweet-scented osmanthus cake in her hand, wiped her mouth, then pointed to the rest on the table and asked: "Daohua, are these all for me to eat?"
Daohua nodded.
Zhou Jingwan looked happy: "Then I won't eat it now. When I leave later, pack up the rest and take it away with me. I will take it back and give it to my mother to try. She also loves sweets."
Daohua smiled and rolled her eyes at Zhou Jingwan: "You're welcome."
Zhou Jingwan returned a wink: "Which one of us is following which one?"
Seeing this, Daohua couldn't help laughing.
"Compared to the little girl who never says anything, or hides several meanings in one sentence, waiting for people to guess, Zhou Jingwan really likes Zhou Jingwan's straightforward nature of saying anything.
"Eat it!" Daohua pushed the dessert on the table towards Zhou Jingwan, "How can you eat the leftovers from the food given to your aunt?"
Wang Maner answered with a smile: "My girl has already prepared another dessert for her to take home, and there are also specially made mooncakes."
When Zhou Jingwan heard this, her eyes widened and her mouth opened. She continued to eat happily without being polite at all.
Seeing that she was eating happily, Daohua also started eating. As she was eating, she thought of her three brothers who would be back tomorrow and asked, "My brothers are going home tomorrow. Is your brother coming back?"
Zhou Jingwan shook her head: "I'm not coming back. The newly appointed Governor Guo invited officials from Zhongzhou Province to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. My grandfather will also go. On such occasions, my eldest brother, as the eldest grandson of the Zhou family, usually has to accompany him." At this point , suddenly paused, tilted his head and asked, "Uncle Yan, won't you go?"
Daohua was stunned for a moment. She also had some knowledge about the officials of Daxia. She knew that the governor was a second-rank official, which was higher than the chief envoy who was in charge of the civil affairs of a province. Those who could be the governor were generally the emperor. confidant.
"My father is just a fifth-rank state magistrate, so he shouldn't be able to go to the governor's banquet, right?"
Hearing this, Zhou Jingwan nodded: "That's right, I heard from my mother that the people who went there this time were all high-ranking officials from Zhongzhou Province, so my eldest brother was taken to gain experience, but "
Zhou Jingwan looked at Daohua, hesitant to speak.
Daohua smiled: "Why, is there anything else that can't be said here?"
Zhou Jingwan put down the dessert in her hand: "It's not that I can't say it, but I find it strange. Aren't your family familiar with the young prince? With this relationship, it stands to reason that Uncle Yan should be invited!"
"Our family is not very familiar with the young prince." Daohua first explained, and then asked: "Why are you invited if you know the young prince?"
Zhou Jingwan: "Governor Guo is the uncle of the young prince! Don't you know this?"
Daohua shook her head.
At this moment, the background of the wealthy family was revealed. They were so well-informed that few things could be hidden from them.
That was the first time she heard about Governor Guo. Maybe even the cheap dad didn¡¯t know about it.
Seeing that she really didn't know anything, Zhou Jingwan continued: "I heard from my grandfather that when King Rui returned to Beijing to resume his duties, the young prince would also go back with him, but later Governor Guo was appointed as the governor, and the young prince Stay and study at Wangyue Academy."
Daohua listened carefully. The Yan family, which had a weak foundation and few connections, had no way of knowing such high-level news.
But Zhou Jingwan doesn¡¯t know much, and most of it is gossip. Even if a big family attaches great importance to the cultivation of their children, they will not tell them about big things.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Jingwan left with the return gift prepared by Daohua.
After seeing her off, Daohua went to the old lady¡¯s yard. After entering the house, she found that the cheap dad had left the office early, but his face didn¡¯t seem to be very good.
Mrs. Li smiled and asked, "Miss Zhou is gone?"
Daohua nodded.
Because Yan Zhigao looked bad, everyone ate in silence and ended the dinner hastily.
On the way back to the main courtyard with Mrs. Li, Daohua couldn't help but ask: "Mom, what's wrong with father?"
Mrs. Li had a wry smile on her lips: "I heard a few gossips and felt unhappy."
Daohua: "Is it because the Governor hosted a banquet for Zhongzhou officials?"
Mrs. Li looked surprised: "You know?"
Daohua nodded: "Zhou Jingwan just told me, but what's so unpleasant about this? The Governor's official position is so high, isn't it normal not to invite my father?"
Mrs. Li moved her lips, and finally let out a long sigh: "This person can't have too high expectations. Once the expectations are exceeded, there will easily be a gap. If there is a gap, naturally you will not be happy."
Daohua rolled her eyes: "Father, don't you think that since our family knows Xiao Yeyang, the Governor should invite him?"
Mrs. Li patted the back of Daohua's hand: "Everyone has unrealistic expectations, and your father is no exception."
Daohua frowned.
Seeing this, Mrs. Li smiled: "Don't worry, your dad is a self-aware person. He just heard a few gossips and felt a little disappointed. He will adjust soon."
¡°If the master had a bad mentality and was left in the position of county magistrate and suppressed for so long, he would not be able to survive.
Daohua thought for a while and said, "Mom, Xiao Yeyang is too different from our status. In my opinion, he has already repaid the debt of saving his life."
"So, unless he comes to us, we are not qualified to go to him. It is best not to expect him to continue to help us and take care of us."
To him, who is so superior, the Yan family is not that important.
Mrs. Li smiled and nodded Daohua's forehead: "Mom, can you think more clearly? Your father also knew it, so after the young prince stayed at our house, he did not punish the people in the government office. .¡±
"In the final analysis, a person's standing in the world depends on his own ability." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
