Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 586 Let's Go Home

In the next few days, Du Jinning followed Yao Shuqi to look around the house and fields.These fields also came from Shi Yun, and they were all under the names of the officials who had their houses confiscated. They were taken back by the Ministry of Households and resold, so there are some good fields that are contiguous.In the end, Du Jinning bought a house in the east of the city, as well as two hundred acres of land and a small village outside the city.

The area of ​​the house is quite large. Although the scenery inside is not as exquisite as the garden built by Du Jinning, there are rockery and ponds, shaded by trees, but not many houses. It is more in line with Du Jinning's wishes. After living in it, it will be remodeled The makeover is perfect.

In addition to the house and the field, Du Jinning bought two shops under the introduction of the middleman.One is going to be a snack shop for Mrs. Xie, and the other is for Zhuang Yue, whoever wants to do whatever he wants.

Teahouses and bookstores had cooperated with Liang Xiankuan to open many branches in the capital, but Du Jinning didn't plan to open them again.The tea gardens in her hands are making a lot of money every day, and the teahouses and bookstores everywhere make a lot of money. Now that she focuses on the imperial examination, she doesn't plan to invest in making money, and Zhuang Yue will take care of everything.

During this period, Xu Chengyuan also rented a small yard not far from Du Jinning's new house and dim sum shop, and entered an academy under the introduction of Guan Lehe, planning to enroll after the family settled down.

Both Du Jinning and Xu Chengyuan were straightforward people. They bought the house and rented it out. They spent two days sending people to clean and repair it. They moved in with their families on an auspicious day.

During this period, Du Jinning went to the Yamen according to the time agreed with Guan Lehe, planning to go to Taixue to go through the admission procedures.

When she got to the door, Guan Jiaze was already waiting there.

"I've already asked someone to go in and tell Fourth Uncle, and Fourth Uncle will come out when he's done working." Guan Jiaze said.

"Don't worry, wait for the teacher to finish his official business. It's better not to leave early when the new official takes office."

The two were chatting when they suddenly heard: "Brother Ze."

The two turned their heads and saw that Guan Zhengxiang was wearing an official uniform, looking at Guan Jiaze with a complicated expression.

Guan Jiaze's smile froze on his face.He suppressed his smile, and called lightly: "Father."

Guan Zhengxiang looked around and felt that there was no place to talk, so he pointed to the carriageway parked beside him: "Brother Ze, let's get in the car and talk?"

"No time, I'll wait for fourth uncle to come out." Guan Jiaze put on a blank face, not even looking at Guan Zhengxiang.

There was faint anger on Guan Zhengxiang's face, but he suppressed it.

He took two steps closer and said in a gentle voice: "Brother Ze, you are a child of my Guan family, how can you live in the Kong family all the time? You should go home and live here. Don't you like my jade chess pieces the most? You go home Hold on, Dad will give you that chess set."

The corner of Guan Jiaze's mouth twitched, revealing a mocking smile.

"Although my life is a bit miserable, I can't even compare with the life of a concubine. But anyway, I am the grandson of the Kong family, and I can rely on my grandparents to have enough food and clothing. Chess pieces are betraying yourself. You should keep your treasure to coax your beloved sons and daughters, I can’t bear it.”

Guan Zhengxiang couldn't keep his face from what he said, and his expression suddenly sank: "Brother Ze, who taught you to speak like this? I am your father, and those are your brothers and sisters. You have to learn from that woman on the street and speak sharply. Is it mean?"

"Oh, it's the father's fault if the son doesn't teach it. I'm a child born with a mother but not taught by a father. Naturally, I can't learn how to speak with a sweet belly sword. It's better to say it with a smile in front of my face, but it kills me with a knife behind my back. I, Talk straight, without so many twists and turns. You, if you don't like it, just go back and find your good son. "

Guan Jiaze said, pulling Du Jinning away: "Come on, let's go to the side, don't block the officials and gentlemen from their work."

Du Jinning wanted to say hello to Guan Zhengxiang at first, but Guan Zhengxiang only saw Guan Jiaze in his eyes, and completely ignored her. What the father and son said was so embarrassing, she walked away or stood here It's not good to be an observer, she just doesn't know what to do, at this time Guan Jiaze pulls her to leave, she is really looking forward to it.

But he didn't want Guan Zhengxiang's eyes to fall on her, so he stopped her suddenly: "Du Jinning, wait a minute."

Du Jinning glanced at Guan Jiaze, turned his head and cupped his hands at Guan Zhengxiang: "Uncle Guan."

"You persuade Jia Ze for me to let him move back home. How can there be someone who can't live outside?"

"..."

Du Jinning didn't know what to say.No wonder Guan Zhengxiang would spoil his concubine and kill his wife, it turns out that this person is so confused.

Guan Jiaze grabbed Du Jinning and stood in front of her: "What's the matter with Du Jinning? Family ugliness should not be publicized, don't you know this sentence? I have to explain to Du Jinning why I can't go back because I have a home. Can I live in my grandfather's house?"

At this time, Guan Lehe came out from the entrance of the engineering department, and said to Guan Zhengxiang with a calm face: "Second brother, why are you here? Is there something you can't go home to talk about, so you have to shout here?"

"I'd like to go home and talk about it, but this bastard, is he going home?" Guan Zhengxiang turned pale with anger, pointing at Guan Jiaze, with an air of hatred, "Listen to what he said Words? Is this what my son said to Lao Tzu? Does he have any respect for me?"

"Okay, let's go home if we have something to say, don't embarrass yourself here. You don't think it's embarrassing, but I do." Guan Lehe flicked his sleeves and boarded Guan Jiaze's carriage first, "Jiaze, Jin Ning , get in the car quickly."

Guan Jiaze's movements were more agile than ever, he followed Guan Lehe and jumped into the carriage.

Guan Lehe and Guan Jiaze could be rude to Guan Zhengxiang, but as an outsider, Du Jinning couldn't do so.

She saluted Guan Zhengxiang: "Uncle, let's go first." Then she got into her carriage.

Guan Zhengxiang stared at the carriages driving out of the street one after the other for a while, sighed deeply, turned around and walked towards the Ministry of Rites.

He knew that Guan Lehe was going to take Guan Jiaze to Taixue, so he came here specially to persuade his son to go back, but there was still an unpleasant disturbance.

This area is where the yamen is located, and some teachers of the Taixue were transferred by the yamen to teach, so naturally they would not be placed too far away. The Taixue is located two streets away from the area of ​​the yamen, and its area is the same as that of Guizhou province. The school is almost the same, but the building is much more magnificent. On the beams of the roof are painted Hexi color paintings and Xuanzi color paintings, and the main hall and color paintings are also painted with golden dragons, all of which represent the status of this school in the Great Song Dynasty.

This is the highest institution of learning in Song Dynasty.

Guan Lehe asked the concierge to report, and then a fastman led him into the door and went to Xuezheng's place.

"Xue Zheng's surname is Feng, a great Confucian in the world." On the way, Guan Lehe introduced in a low voice.
