Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 132 Rejection
Du Jinning stood up and saluted Liang Xiankuan very sincerely, "Thank you Brother Liang for your love and care."

She raised her head and looked directly at Liang Xiankuan: "It's just that I really don't have time. You know, I have to attend lectures at the head of the mountain every morning, and in the afternoon..." She smiled sheepishly, "I have to go Write a storybook at home."

It's not that she looks down on the five coins.Although compared with the two taels of silver in the storybook, the daily wages of five renminbi are indeed less, but with her calculation ability, she can calculate the accounts that others need to calculate clearly in a day, and she can finish it in less than an hour. A path of long-term cooperation.Going to help Liang's family settle the accounts at the end of each year, maybe she can earn back her one-year Shuxiu b.

Moreover, not every book written can be sold.The reason why her scripts can be sold, and each book can be sold for two taels of silver, is all due to Guan Jiaze and Qi Muyuan's willingness to help her, so that they can be sold at a high price.For this, she is like a mirror in her heart.

Moreover, she didn't mind Liang Xiankuan's solicitation at all, on the contrary, she appreciated the frankness of the man in front of her very much.

There is no love without reason in the world, and there is no hate without reason.Liang Xiankuan saw her ability and was optimistic about her future, so he was willing to treat her well and help her.To be honest, this is better than what Guan Le, his uncle and nephew, Yuan Xiuzhu, and Qi Muyuan treated her, and it will make her feel at ease.At least she knows that everything she earns is based on her ability, not on the kindness and favor of others.Those kindnesses and favors actually made her fearful, not knowing how to repay them, fearing that if she was not careful, she would be let down.

She is actually the same type of person as Liang Xiankuan.If she had a choice at the beginning, she would rather choose to cooperate with Liang Xiankuan than accept the kindness of Guan Lehe and others.The former is a transaction, which can be calculated with money and can be paid off; the latter is friendship, even if it is a drop of water, she has to repay it with a spring, and the spring will still have a psychological burden, lest it fail the hearts of the people.

What she fears most is the debt of favor.

But fate didn't let her choose.She met Guan Lehe and the others first, and inherited a lot of love from them before she got to where she is today.Since she bears a heavy debt of favor, she can't do anything that would chill Guan Le and them.

It is true that Guan Lehe and Yuan Xiuzhu might not care about her going to Liang's house to settle accounts, and they are also happy to see the result. After all, she can earn a little money to meet her urgent needs.But Guan Lehe and Yuan Xiuzhu don't care, it doesn't mean Guan Jiaze doesn't care.Guan Jiaze and Liang Xiankuan were at odds. If she went to Liang's house to settle accounts, would Guan Jiaze feel that she had betrayed their friendship?She doesn't quite understand the thinking of adolescent children, but she dare not take the risk.

Therefore, I can only feel sorry for Liang Xiankuan.

Liang Xiankuan really didn't expect Du Jinning to reject him.He was stunned for a while before he came to his senses, and asked tentatively, "Are you afraid that Guan Jiaze will be unhappy?"

Talking to smart people is easy.

Du Jinning smiled, did not deny it, but stood up and gave another salute: "Anyway, Jinning would like to thank Brother Liang for his favor. No matter who it is, it is always happy to be appreciated by others. Well, for Jin Ning today, it is very valuable."

"Actually, Guan Jiaze wouldn't be so petty." Liang Xiankuan had a complicated expression.

"It's not a question of what he thinks, it's a question of what I think." Du Jinning shook his head and cupped his hands again, "Please forgive me, Senior Brother Liang."

"Oh." Liang Xiankuan sighed, and after he sighed, he laughed again.

He said: "Okay, don't go if you don't settle accounts. But, you won't refuse my intention to make friends? Don't worry, I won't do anything to embarrass you. "

"That's natural." Du Jinning also laughed.

It is true that Liang Xiankuan is a scheming person, but he is magnanimous enough, which Du Jinning appreciates very much.

She herself is a scheming person, without scheming, she would not take Chen Shi and the others to escape from Du's house so quickly.Silly Baitian can't survive in a difficult situation.But so what if they are scheming, as long as they don't harm others and have kind thoughts in their hearts, who can deny that they are not good people?
Having said that, Du Jinning felt that it was almost the same.She changed the subject and said, "You just said that you are in the wood and furniture business?"

"Yes." Liang Xiankuan said, "Our family's business is not actually in Lishui County, but in the county town."

"Sure enough." Du Jinning nodded.

The place where Mrs. Chen went to carry logs was probably the top of the Liang family's mountain.

"Why?" Liang Xiankuan asked, "What really happened?"

Du Jinning didn't have anything to say to others, so he told about the difficult time at home and the fact that Mrs. Chen went to carry wood to change oil and salt, and said: "If my mother knows that it is your business, she will definitely be very willing to see you. On the one hand, thank you in person."

"Uh, I don't dare to see my aunt." Liang Xiankuan smiled and waved his hands, "I will be ashamed if I see her. It was our Liang family's fault for not knowing you and not taking care of my aunt."

"How is this your fault?" Du Jinning also laughed.

After the two chatted for a while, Liang Xiankuan stood up and said goodbye.

Du Jinning felt very sorry for ruthlessly rejecting a way to make money.So she turned her grief and anger into strength, polished her ink, and buried herself in writing the script, vowing to make back the lost money from the script—of course, by telling stories in teahouses instead of selling them directly to Guan Jiaze and others. Qi Muyuan.

Angrily writing for more than half an hour, she was resting and rubbing her sore wrist when she heard someone outside shouting, "Is Young Master Du at home?"

Du Fanghui had already left quickly, and after asking about the situation, she turned to Du Jinning and shouted, "Brother Ning, it's the young master of the Guan family who sent you a message."

At this time, Du Jinning had already come out, she recognized the servant who had been with Guan Jiaze, she asked, "What did your young master say?"

"My young master told Young Master Du that he has already found the person in charge of the teahouse. Mr. Qian, the storyteller, has also signed a five-year contract with the teahouse. Please invite Young Master Du to come to the teahouse when he is free from school," said the boy. .

"Okay, I'll be there on time." Du Jinning nodded.

Going back to the house to check the time, it was very close to the end of the academy. Du Jinning did not write any more scripts, but dried the paper, washed the pen and inkstone, and went to the academy.

Now is not the time for Yuan An to be here, and she doesn't know if the manager the Guan family is looking for is in the teahouse, she is too lazy to go there first, and is going to wait here for Guan Jiaze and others to come out, and then go to the teahouse together.

Because Du Jinning would come over every morning after class at the academy, Guan Le and the old Cangtou who had once greeted the gatekeeper, and the old Cangtou was already very familiar with Du Jinning.Seeing her coming, he hurriedly greeted her to come in and sit down.
