Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 142 Ask
After dinner that day, Guan's mansion sent a woman to call Zhuang Yue, saying that Mrs. Guan had an invitation.

Zhuang Yue was not surprised. He told his wife and followed his mother-in-law to Zhuang's mansion.

Mrs. Guan sat at the top of the outer hall, surrounded by several women and maids.She pointed to the position of the lower head, and said to Zhuang Yue: "Don't be too polite, just sit down."

Because he came here in the morning, Zhuang Yue also knew Mrs. Guan's temper, so he didn't dare to refuse more, thanked him for his seat, and sat along the edge of the chair.

Mrs. Guan didn't talk nonsense, and got straight to the point: "Would that Du Jinning go to the teahouse today?"

"He went. He gave Lu Xiaobei and Lu Xiaobei three more juggling books. After watching their performance, he left after a short stay."

Of course Zhuang Yue knew what Mrs. Guan wanted to ask, so she didn't need her to ask more, and took the initiative to report: "When he went, Chen Jiaxing and the two not only didn't say hello, they sat there and didn't even move. Young Master Du didn't pay attention to them. when they don't exist."

"Hmph." Mrs. Zhuang sneered, "They are seventeen or eighteen years old, and I didn't give them jobs. You can tell what kind of people they are when you think about it. The young master's eyes, that's why this came out."

Zhuang Yue became the third shopkeeper from a young boy in the Guan family, so he is naturally shrewd. He knows that flattering Mrs. Guan is better than praising the young master to please the wife.

He replied: "The young master is kind-hearted and righteous, and Chen Jiaxing is used to being obedient and slippery. How could the young master have thought that they are such people? When he was in the middle of employing people, he came close to him, so why don't we just use him?" .Anyway, it’s not easy to replace it, it’s not worth being a young master to spend a little more time on him.”

Sure enough, Mrs. Guan's expression suddenly became kinder, and she said with a smile: "Brother Ze was also spoiled by me. He has never experienced any hardships, so he is inevitably simpler, and there are times when he doesn't notice it for a while. No, he opened a teahouse. Knowing who is good and who is not is also a lesson."

Regarding this matter, Zhuang Yue didn't dare to express any opinions lightly, he only echoed: "With my wife's arrangements, the young master will surely have a smooth life in this life, and there will be no hardships."

Mrs. Guan loves to hear these words, and she is more and more happy: "Zhuang Yue, you are capable. You have become the third shopkeeper at a young age, which shows that you are capable. Don't worry, even if this teahouse cannot be opened, I will arrange for it." If you go elsewhere, I will never wrong you."

Zhuang Yue was overjoyed, his heart fell to the ground, he quickly lifted his skirt and knelt down, and made a big gift to Mrs. Guan: "Thank you for your help."

"Okay, get up."

Although the father-in-law passed away early, the mother-in-law also passed away, and the husband is far away in the capital, in the three-bedroom mansion of the Guan family, only Mrs. Guan is the biggest.Her housekeeper is strict, and the maids don't dare to gossip, but it's too late, and she will meet the male foreign steward, and Zhuang Yue is in his 30s, which is almost a few years older than her, so it's not appropriate after all.If others know about it, there will inevitably be gossip.

Kong didn't say anything else, and asked: "Master Seventh, can you go to the teahouse today?"

"I went there when school was over in the evening, and when I went in, I was unhappy, looked around, and stayed there for a while. The villain knew that the young master valued friendship, so he must still feel uncomfortable about what happened yesterday, so he took the initiative to tell him, At noon, Young Master Du came to the teahouse and gave him the juggling book, so he was in a better mood. But he didn't say much, and stayed for a while before Chen Jiaxing and the two escorted him back home."

Kong asked Zhuang Yue to come here at this time, just to listen to these words.She regards her son and daughter like eyeballs. Now that something like this happened to her son, how can she rest assured?If you don't ask about it today, you will definitely have to remember it tonight.

Now that she had asked clearly, she picked up the tea bowl.

Zhuang Yue saluted and said goodbye with great winking.

Watching Zhuang Yue follow his mother-in-law down the steps and disappearing into the twilight, Nanny Qin, Kong's confidant, smiled and said, "It seems that Master Du is not a petite man, Madam can rest assured. In fact, I want to I thought, if he wasn't a good person, the fourth master wouldn't have accepted him as his disciple."

Kong shook his head: "You don't know the temper of the fourth master? If you see the right person, no matter who the other party is, he will treat him wholeheartedly; Didn't he just suffer from his temper? Although he is getting older now and has been a mountain chief for so many years, his temper has become a little restrained, but the things in his bones cannot be changed."

Nanny Qin is Kong's nanny, and she watched Kong grow up.Among the current servants of the Guan Mansion, she is the only one who dares to refute Kong.

She smiled and said, "But ma'am, you can't deny that the fourth master has never missed anyone in all these years."

Kong Shi was silent for a moment, then nodded: "That's true."

She paused, thinking of Du Jinning, her brows were slightly frowned: "But that boy Du is too tempered. Although he went to the teahouse today and didn't hide his secrets, he didn't talk to Brother Ze in the academy. It can be seen I still have ideas in my mind.”

"If he went up to apologize to the young master today, madam, are you looking down on him again? I always feel that although he has a temper, he is a flatterer after all?"

Kong couldn't help laughing, and said: "So, it's my fault?"

"I don't dare to say that, I just think that Young Master Du is not very bad, otherwise the fourth master would not accept him as his personal disciple."

Mrs. Kong nodded: "That's fine, let's just watch it for now. They children have disagreements, let them make up by themselves, I don't get involved." Anyway, she would not persuade her son to bow his head first.

"Then Chen Jiaxing and the two..." Mother Qin asked.

Chen Jiaxing's and Liu Ze's mothers wanted their son to be a servant, so they begged Nanny Qin with a big gift.

But Nanny Qin came to Kong's house to be a nanny to support her family back then, but her husband couldn't help but find another woman, she divorced immediately, her daughter died of dystocia after marriage, and she lost her family.Compared with Kong's importance to her, money is not that important.Seeing that Chen Jiaxing and the two of them were not together for five or six years, she did not agree to this matter and returned all the things.

Now that these two dare to provoke the young master, she doesn't want to see them anymore.

"This kind of thing, we remind, it's better to suffer a small loss to make a deep impression on yourself, and let Brother Ze find out that it's inappropriate to deal with it. Under Zhuang Yue's nose, they can't make any waves." Kong Dow.

"It can be seen that the young master is blessed to have such a sensible mother as his wife, who has considered everything for him." Mother Qin flattered.

Kong smiled self-deprecatingly: "What kind of blessing is there? Having a father is like not having a father."

Speaking of Guan Zhengxiang, Nanny Qin's old face was stained with sadness: "Master has repeatedly asked the young master to go to Beijing in the letter, what do you think, ma'am?"
