Prime Minister

Chapter 520 Reunion
When Zhang Qiufang picked up the kite, he heard someone shout: "Hey! Don't steal it!"

Zhang Qiu couldn't help getting angry when he heard it, he thought that he was hit on the head by something, how could he become a thief?

But seeing the two slaves approaching, they looked very arrogant and unreasonable.

Although Zhang Qiu was angry, Third Uncle Xindao told him not to argue with others, especially such a rich family.The most important thing is that he is about to take a provincial test, and he wants to get famous in one fell swoop this time, otherwise he will really be ashamed to see his family, how can he conflict with life's anger at this time.

Zhangqiu thought about it for a while and then gave up. He immediately returned the kite and said, "I just picked it up by chance."

After Zhangqiu finished speaking, he turned around and left, but he heard Wangting from above say: "Li Da, Li Er must not be rude to scholars! Don't make amends!"

Zhang Qiu heard a woman's voice, and glanced at the Wangting Pavilion, but saw that it was covered with a curtain.

The two house slaves saluted and apologized to Zhangqiu.

Zhang Qiu didn't want to cause more trouble, bowed his hand to Wangting Yaoyao as a salute, and left immediately.

And there are two women on the watchtower watching Zhangqiu go away.

A woman said: "This matter is your Lu family's grievance, but this scholar didn't make any excuses, but he was afraid of your Lu family's momentum."

The woman said: "It's just that the other party doesn't want to cause trouble. I don't think this person seems to be a timid person. He is about to save the test. If you are angry with others for nothing, if you get angry, it will ruin things in the examination room." ?”

The other party said with a smile: "Sister is right."

"But it's time for a trial. Sister, your life's major event is still undecided. I heard that your father said that he would choose a son-in-law from among the young Jinshi who won the first prize. I think this person is just right in age and good-looking. If he wins the Jinshi...why? No, it can be regarded as a marriage destined."

Being told by the other party, the woman from the Lu family couldn't help but blushed, and said instead: "It's such a coincidence."

The other party said with a smile: "I don't know the news about this young man, otherwise I would have asked carefully."

At this time, the two servants came back with the kite and handed it to the maidservant of the woman from the Lu family.

The maid went upstairs and said, "Girl, just now that young man lost something, it looks like a list of robes from Zhou's tailor shop on Maxing Street."

The two women looked at each other, thinking that there was such a coincidence.

The daughter of the Lu family took the list and read it: "Zhangqiu, Pucheng?"

Another person said with a smile: "Sister, the Pucheng Zhang family is a famous family in the imperial examination. Although it is not as good as when the Duke of Xun was in power, in recent years, some people have been on the list. There are two champions, and one is the first. A fifth member of Jinshi, especially Zhang Duzhi, heard that the official family has just returned to serve as a lecturer for Tianzhang Pavilion, and everyone can see that it is intended to be reused."

"Daddy said that at his age, he is at least a public servant, even if he is in power. I heard that he has some predestined relationship with your Lu family."

The girl from the Lu family felt turbulent when she heard the words, and then said: "It is true that there are some relatives, but they are not relatives."

While he was talking, he saw Zhang Qiu go and return, and searched along the way.

The woman from the Lu family hurriedly said: "He must be looking for this list, please ask someone to return it to him, please be more polite."

"Yes."

After the woman from the Lu family handed over the list, the servant just now hurriedly returned the list to Zhangqiu.

When Zhang Qiu saw this servant again, he was much more respectful and polite.

"My lord, may I ask if you found this thing?"

"Exactly."

Zhang Qiu took it and said with a smile, "Thank you very much."

Zhangqiu thought that the third uncle often told him to be kind to others when he went out, which seemed to be a good thing.

The servant smiled and said: "If you want to thank me, you should thank our girl. She ordered me to pay you back."

Zhang Qiu was taken aback for a moment, then saluted and thanked the watch pavilion, and then left calmly.

And at this time, it was on the other side of Nanxunmen Street.

Seventeen Niang entered the city through Nanxun Gate with a large family.

My original house was destroyed by the flood, and now I want to find a house in Bianjing.

As soon as he entered the city gate, he saw his elder brother Wu Anshi waiting by the city gate.

Seventeen Niang got out of the carriage.

Wu Anshi said: "Why don't Seventeen go home and live? Do you have to find an apartment outside? Come home with me, and meet your new sister-in-law."

Shi Qiniang felt unhappy when she heard the new sister-in-law, but said: "It's not convenient to live at home. I will live in the house next to the Imperial College first, and then I will find a place."

The Guozijian house was originally arranged by the Wu family for Zhang Yue, who was studying in the Guozijian. Later, when the Zhang and Wu families got married, they made it the dowry of Shi Qiniang, but now it has been vacant.

After Zhang Yue dismissed from office, the house was given to Zhang Shi's family to live in.

Wu Anshi frowned after hearing this and said: "The place is very small, how can it accommodate so many people. I will find you a Zhouzheng house to live in first, not for anything, but purely for your face. Look at my brother-in-law now. But the servant of Tianzhang Pavilion said, you are his wife and you must think about him."

"He is a close minister of the emperor, and he pays attention to decency when he goes in and out. If he lives in the Imperial College, it would be a joke. Besides, he has to go in and out of the palace every day, so he must find a place to live near the root of the imperial city, otherwise he will be locked up." How much work will be delayed on the way back?"

Seeing her brother's intentions, Shi Qiniang thought that although Wu Anshi had always been kind to her younger sister in the past, she was never so enthusiastic.

Even when she and Zhang Yue first got married, Wu Anshi said all day long that Zhang's family was really poor and did not give herself a good life.

Now... It seems that a wife is more expensive than a husband, and this truth is not bad at all.

However, Seventeen Niang still did not agree to Wu Anshi's suggestion to find a house, but asked the other party to pay more attention to Zhang Qiu's affairs.

Instead, she returned to the house next to the Imperial College.

When the Wu family lived in this house for Zhang Yue, Zhang Yue didn't agree.Now that the two have been husband and wife for many years, Zhang Yuezi will not worry about these anymore.

When Shi Qiniang arrived at the house next to the Imperial College, there was no one to greet her.

Shi Qi Niang took Xiao Zhang Yue's hand and walked into the hall. Shi Shi Niang saw her husband and her elder brother Zhang Shi squatting on the threshold chatting together.

Seventeen Niang was a little speechless when she saw it, her husband is now quite an official, but some behaviors still remain unchanged, her son must be restrained, and he must not be allowed to acquire the habits of his father.

When Zhang Yue saw his wife and son happily coming forward, Seventeen Niang saluted Zhang first, and then said: "I have already inquired about Axi, and I have arrived in the capital a few days ago, and I am already a trustee." Bring it to him and say that if you see him, you will take it home."

Zhang Shi said angrily: "You don't have to go home, I'll pretend I don't have this son, I haven't been home for two years and I don't know how to come back to see my family first, do you know how much your sister-in-law misses him these days?"

Seventeen Niang said: "Ah Xi has grown up, I think he has his own ideas, he is holding his breath if he doesn't go home, he has to pass the Jinshi examination first, and then go home in a good way to apologize to you."

"Who wants him to apologize!" Zhang Shi was angry, but his words were not as excited as before.

Zhang Yue and Shi Qi Niang said some good things to Zhang Shi before they calmed down.

Zhang Shi said to Zhang Yue: "Your second brother has also returned to Beijing, this time our family is complete, Saburo, you see, let's just forget about the original things, okay?"
