Green Tea Specialist Male Lead

Luo Jinbao and the others came here to connect with Gu Wenjing, who has already been promoted, and to give gifts. Gu Wenjing knew that if he didn't accept the gifts from Luo's family, his cheap father-in-law would only have trouble sleeping and eating, and he would have a lot of brain supplements.

Therefore, Gu Wenjing accepted several lucrative commodities given to him by Luo Jinbao, the well-positioned Zhuangzi, and 100 acres of fertile land.

This generous gift can be said to be the protection fee that the Luo family gave to Gu Wenjing. If the Luo family will encounter any difficulties in the future, it is inevitable to use his tiger skin as a banner.

Because Luo Qingyi is the eldest daughter of the Luo family, whether Gu Wenjing accepts the gift from the Luo family or not, the Gu family and the Luo family are tied together by in-laws. He did not hesitate to accept this generous gift and give Luo Jinbao a reassurance.

Luo Jinbao and others left with peace of mind. When Gu Wenjing and Luo Qingyi were getting along in private, he handed Luo Qingyi the land deed and other items sent by Luo Jinbao: "You take these!"

Luo Qingyi didn't answer: "My father gave it to Xianggong. Take it, Xianggong! It's easy to get it from these shops if you need to spend on entertainment in the future."

Gu Wenjing smiled and said, "I have used so much dowry silver for the lady in the past three years, and I always have to replenish you." Although this gift and Luo Qingyi's dowry were both given by Luo Jinbao, they have different meanings.

This time, Luo Jinbao is much more generous than before marrying his daughter. The shops he gave are the most profitable shops of the Luo family. Liangtian and Zhuangzi are also very geographically located. It can be said that the Luo family is bleeding. Once again.

Luo Qingyi only drew a few land deeds from it, and said softly: "These are enough to make up my dowry money."

Gu Wenjing smiled and squeezed all the rest to her: "The rest is the property of the public, and all the expenses of the family are paid out of the public. Mother does not matter, you still have to take care of this family."

Luo Qingyi is Luo Jinbao's daughter. Regardless of her weak temperament, she actually inherited Luo Jinbao's business mind, and the housekeeper is a good hand in managing the industry.

Luo Qingyi's dowry for the dowry of the Luo family at the beginning was well managed, but now it is increasing. Gu Wenjing couldn't deal with business if he wanted to be an official, so he was relieved to hand over the family property to her.

Luo Qingyi didn't refuse this time. She accepted these things from Gu Wenjing. After all, as Gu Wenjing's wife, it is her right and duty to be a steward.

Gu Wenjing thought for a while and asked Luo Qingyi: "What do you think of your sister's performance today?"

He felt that he had to give Luo Qingyi a vaccination in advance, and could not allow her to be calculated by Luo Liuyi unprepared in a few years, even with his help, she did not have her own defense.

When Luo Qingyi heard Gu Wenjing mention Luo Liuyi, she frowned slightly: "Msang-gong, sister, her performance today is not very good, but don't care about her. Sister-in-law just likes to be competitive. Today I see me better than her. , I feel unconvinced."

Gu Wenjing looked at her in surprise. He thought that Luo Qingyi trusted her family unconditionally, and thought that her sister had a deep relationship with her sister, but she still knew it in her heart.

"Since the lady knows that your sister is jealous of you, are you still helping her everywhere?" Don't you know to be more prepared?

Luo Qingyi smiled slightly: "Although my younger sister is eager to win, she is my younger sister after all, and is still very kind to my older sister. My father-in-law did not know something. When I was a child, my sister and I naughty stabbed the hornet's nest in the garden. At that time, I happened to have a flower hairpin on my head, and was chased by a hornet. It was my sister who took the initiative to take the flower to distract the hornet for me. Later, because my sister was stung by the hornet too many times, she kept fever and almost didn't survive."

She recalled her childhood with her younger sister, with a beautiful smile on her face: "My younger sister said, I was only born a moment and a half earlier than her. In fact, she is the older sister. She wants to protect me..."

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing listened to Luo Qingyi's memories in silence. If he hadn't seen Luo Liuyi's jealousy and resentment towards Luo Qingyi with his own eyes, and didn't know the plot, he would not have thought that Luo Qingyi's proud and lively relationship with his sister is extremely close. The good Luo Liuyi will be cruel to death in the future. She once said to protect her sister.

He didn’t suspect that Luo Qingyi’s words were false, because in the past three years, he found that although Luo Qingyi had a soft temper, she was not the kind of soft bun that she gave up whenever others wanted. She had her own perseverance, but kindness. Not the Virgin. But to her sister Luo Liuyi, it was really what the other party wanted, and she would let her let her go, never rob her.

Luo Qingyi sighed: "I know that my sister likes to be competitive, and I want to be better than me in everything, so I am willing to let her. But the older I grow up, my sister will gradually become alienated from me..."

When I was young, the sisters lived and ate together, and their relationship became better. Later, when they grew up and lived separately, the relationship was not as close as before. Later, they married and became two families, which is even more strange.

Luo Qingyi was very sad about this situation, but he was still open to it. After all, there are always banquets in the world, and it is impossible for his sisters to be together forever.

Gu Wenjing was silent. He wanted to remind Luo Qingyi to be wary of Luo Liuyi, but what do you want him to say now? No one would doubt that two sisters who had been in such a good relationship would be murderous against their sister in the future, right?

And Gu Wenjing feels that although Luo Liuyi hates Luo Qingyi now, she probably never thought of killing her sister to replace her. It's just that her thoughts are horny, her temperament is more competitive, and her sister is getting better and better after changing the relationship. , But the worse she crossed, she might go to extremes for a while, and could not look back after killing Luo Qingyi, she could only blacken completely.

No one is inherently vicious, and no matter how bad people are, they have had good times.

Gu Wenjing thought a lot. He couldn't tell Luo Qingyi that Luo Liuyi might kill her in the future. She wouldn't believe it. Who would believe that her sister who was just a little contradictory wanted to kill herself?

But he did not relax his vigilance against Luo Liuyi. She, who was once kind, may not still be kind. Otherwise, Luo Liuyi would not want to pretend to be Luo Qingyi and deliberately seduce him on the day when he returned to the door. She has already started on the road of no return.

Gu Wenjing looked at Luo Qingyi’s face exactly like Luo Liuyi, but for some reason, it was obviously the same face, but he felt that Luo Qingyi’s face was much more pleasing to the eye, but Luo Liuyi’s face made him want to look at it. look more. Maybe it's because of each other's heart?

Gu Wenjing sighed slightly, stroked Luo Qingyi's face, and said softly: "Forget it, just be yourself, and you will protect the lady for your husband."

She doesn't have to be wary of her sister in this regard. A kind and good girl is always pitiful. As her husband, he can always protect her.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing had money and a lot of free time after Zhongju. He bought many servants from Renyazi, selected a few young maids of the right age, and ordered them to train them for a period of time before sending them to Luo Qing. Be a errand by his side.

At exactly this time, Luo Qingyi found out that she was two months pregnant. He used her reason to send more people to protect her when she was pregnant, so that those maids who knew how to swim and could always stay by Luo Qingyi's side, could not leave. .

Although Luo Qingyi was murdered by Luo Liuyi when he returned to his natal house in the plot, he feels that it is better to form a habit from now on than when Luo Qingyi returns to his natal house and then send someone to protect him with great fanfare.

Luo Qingyi, who was even more nervous than Gu Wenjing during her first pregnancy, felt that Gu Wenjing sent a maid to protect her, and she had no intention of rejecting it.

So she raised the fetus smoothly under tight protection.

Luo Qingyi married Gu Wenjing for three years and had her first child. This is already very slow. Gu's father and mother, who was a little anxious about holding his grandson, were very happy. During this time, they were even preparing for the exam. Gu Wenjing is not as important as Luo Qingyi, who is pregnant with their golden grandson.

Gu Wenjing is now accustomed to sitting next to Luo Qingyi, who has a big belly, studying, and doing prenatal education to unborn children.

Luo Qing leaned on the soft couch and looked at the father-in-law who was sitting next to him. He couldn't help but evoke a gentle smile on his lips. Such a warm and good day was really something she hadn't expected before marrying into Gu's family.

When she changed her relationship, didn't she know that marrying a talent who didn't know whether she could be promoted is far better than marrying into the Qi family to enjoy the blessing? Of course she knew that she was not stupid. How could she not see the difference and the pros and cons of these two marriages? Married to Gu’s family is a gambling bet. Success is risky, let alone failure? Marrying to Qi's family is much less risky.

But when her younger sister Luo Liuyi was unwilling to marry, she took the initiative to change marriage with her younger sister. First, because she knew that as the daughter of the Luo family, she needed to stand up and marry when necessary. If she made her younger sister Luo Liuyi unsympathetic. Unwilling to marry into the Gu family, with her proud temperament, I am afraid that the Luo family and the Gu family are not married but feuds. Second, because she was also reluctant to endure hardships for her sister, and she could and was willing to endure hardships, so she gave up the opportunity to enjoy happiness to her sister when she was accustomed to giving in!

But I didn't expect that after she married into Gu's family, Gu's family members were very kind, and the grandfather also allowed her to spend her dowry silver to improve her life, and she didn't suffer much. Later, Xiang Gong even passed Juren's exam. She jumped from a business woman to Juren's wife, and her social circle was completely different from when she was in the boudoir.

The only thing she regrets is that she has not been happy after marrying in the Gu family for three years. Even if no one in the Gu family blames her for this, she still feels guilty. If it hadn't been forbidden by the decree, she could not help looking for various remedies for having children.

Now she finally has a child, her parents-in-law pays attention to her, her father-in-law loves her, and her sister-in-law is also kind. She feels that she has really fallen into a blessing nest.

The more I think about it, the better Luo Qingyi is. During her pregnancy, she feels happy and looks good. Not only did she not become ugly because of her pregnancy, but she became more radiant.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

In early February, the spring was warm and cold, and Gu Wenjing was about to enter Beijing to participate in the test. This time, he was the only one in Qingyang County to enter the Beijing test.

Luo Qingyi was found to be pregnant for two months in early September last year. Now it is eight months old. He is about to give birth. The family is not as good as last time. There is not even a man in town, leaving a family of women and children, even if there are Luo Family lining is not an issue either.

So Gu's father did not go to Beijing with Gu Wenjing this time. Gu Wenjing only set off with the book boy bought at home.

The childhood of this book is not very big, but he has a lot of strength. When Gu Wenjing saw him, he remembered the intimate little green inkstone of the first world he had traveled, so he named the book boy an inkstone.

Gu Wenjing's entry into Beijing was a waterway through an official boat. The court subsidized the examination of people entering Beijing, so there was no need to pay for the boat fare. He also included board and lodging, and the treatment was quite good.

There were many Juren from other places on this official ship, and Juren one after another on the way to the capital.

Gu Wenjing did not expect that he would be on the same boat as An, who had once met.

This kind of fate made the two of them smile at each other.

"Brother An, I didn't expect you to take this boat too. It's really fate."

An Jingcheng was also very happy to meet Gu Wenjing, and smiled: "Brother Gu! But greet me, why do I need to add a ‘small’ when calling me?"

Gu Wenjing looked at An Jingcheng's face with a round baby fat, and smiled: "You are so young, if you don't call you a little brother, do you want to make a big brother fail?"

An Jingcheng defended: "I am sixteen years old, and I can marry a wife and have children. Where can I be younger?"

Gu Wenjing shook his head and laughed.

At sixteen, he was indeed too young in the imperial examination. But in this era, a sixteen-year-old man can indeed marry a wife and have children.

The original owner is not also Luo Qingyi who married at about the same age. Now Gu Wenjing is only in his early twenties. He is a very young man among the crowd, and An is so much younger than him. He should have received a good education since childhood. Genius!

It's just... Gu Wenjing looked at An Jingcheng's clothes. This time An Jingcheng was still wearing ordinary clothes. He is now a man, even the poorest talent will get rich overnight.

Gu Wenjing did not rush into other people's private affairs, but kept the doubts in his heart.

He and An Jing traveled together, and they were discussing knowledge with each other these days on the boat.

An Jingcheng, who was a little arrogant because of his young age, was struck by Gu Wenjing's profound knowledge while discussing knowledge.

"It's no wonder that Big Brother Gu was able to win Xie Yuan in one fell swoop. It turns out that Big Brother Gu has such a profound knowledge, and the younger brother is ashamed of himself, and he is willing to go down!

Gu Wenjing smiled slightly and accepted it calmly.

During his contact, he had long discovered that An Jingcheng was a proud genius in his bones. If he didn’t take a blow, he would know that there are people outside the world, and there are heaven outside the sky, and Gu Wenjing is the outsider, the outside world, how to conquer such a proud genius. ?

Rather than letting someone be his own friend, Gu Wenjing wants to unknowingly let the other person become his own little brother, for his own use.

Of course, on the surface, he can't show it like this, he must be friends with others! But if a friend voluntarily becomes a "little brother" because he admires him so much, he can't be blamed!

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing and An Jingcheng had been on the boat for five days before finally arriving at the pier in the capital.

After getting off the boat, An Jingcheng invited him: "Brother Gu has no place to stay in the capital, why don't you go with me to the Minister's Mansion?"

Gu Wenjing found out the identity of An Jingcheng on the boat. It turns out that he and An Jingming who framed him are both children of the An family, but he is a side branch, and An Jingming is a direct branch, and his status in the An family is too different. But in patriarchal studies, he occupied the first place all year round, pressing on An Jingming's head, making An Jingming jealous of him, and doing something that hurts others and himself during the provincial examination.

If the cheating paper in An Jingcheng's exam basket is discovered by officers and soldiers, not only will An Jingcheng be deprived of his reputation and exiled to the frontier, but the entire Anjia will also be implicated. But An Jingming didn't even know the serious consequences, and framed his brothers of the same race for his own selfishness.

Afterwards, An actually stabbed the matter to the patriarch.

Although An Jingming was a direct child, the patriarch was extremely fair and just when it came to the interests of the whole family, especially An Jingcheng was admitted to Juren, but An Jingming did not.

In the end, An Jingming punished in accordance with the family rules, but the punishment was not too serious, because An Jingming had a reputation for being a scholar, and he was a rare scholar in the An family.

Anjia is not a big clan, the whole clan is ordinary people from the beginning, at most there is a Lizheng or a village chief. Twenty years ago, Anjia came out of a genius who was very talented in reading. He was admitted to the Imperial Examination and became an official.

This genius is now the right servant of the Ministry of Industry.

Shilang An is still An Jingming's cousin, but the relationship between Shilang An and An Jingming's father was very ordinary, let alone An Jingming, who has never been seen before.

On the contrary, An actually became this collateral genius, and he was even more favored by Shi Lang. The An Family Studies was funded by An Shi Lang, just to allow the family to have a few more scholars, so as to help him.

It's a pity that for twenty years, there is no one who has the hope of being admitted to the Jinshi, and An Jingcheng is the most promising at present. So before An Jingcheng went to Beijing, Shi Lang An wrote to the patriarch personally, so that An Jingcheng would live in Shi Lang Mansion after he went to Beijing.

Gu Wenjing didn't agree to An Jingcheng's invitation: "You are only borrowing when you go to the Minister's Mansion. How can I bother?"

He now has enough silver on his body and is confident that he will be admitted to the Jinshi, and he will definitely stay in Beijing as an official in the future, so he wants to buy a house in Beijing.

It is not easy to live in the capital, and Gu Wenjing is a little worried that the price in the capital is too high and may not be able to find a suitable house.

He first booked a room in an inn called the Zhuangyuan Building in the southeast of the inner city of the capital. The Gongyuan is very close to the Zhuangyuan Building. When he booked the room, there were only a few rooms left. No chance to live in.

Then Gu Wenjing went to Beijing Yahang to see if there was a suitable house to buy.

A house in an inner city is hopeless. To buy a house in an inner city requires not only a lot of money, but also a sufficient identity background. Gu Wenjing is now a Juren from the countryside, so he is not qualified to live with high-ranking officials in the inner city.

However, Gu Wenjing believes that in a few years, he will be able to move from the outer city to the inner city. This makes him very motivated to struggle.

＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜＜

Gu Wenjing followed the people in Yahang to see a few houses, but was not very satisfied.

It's just that Yahang didn't give him other houses to choose from, so Gu Wenjing had to wait until the end of the trial and then come to Yahang.

Presumably waiting for him to try to be on the list and become a Gongshi, the Jamaican Bank will naturally show him even better listings.

This world is like this, there is not enough status, and some things are not qualified to be connected. There is no need to complain about the injustice of the world, because there is no true absolute fairness in the world. The upper class can give the lower class a way to rise. Only by working hard to improve their status through this channel can they stand higher and let their descendants be born more than others. high.

Gu Wenjing somewhat missed the time when the first generation was the first son of the Houfu. Even if he had not inherited the title, he had not yet become the Ning Guogong. Just by his private house of the first Houfu, there were a lot of good houses and villagers in the Houfu. Now that I am running around like this, I can't buy a small house that I used to look down on before.

On the ninth day of February, the time for the test is up.

The examination time of the public examination is similar to that of the township examination, and it is divided into three sessions.

It's just that the February spring season is much colder than the August autumn season. The weather in the capital is even colder, and now I have to wear cotton clothes!

However, in order to prevent entrainment, test-takers are not allowed to wear cotton clothes, and can only wear single clothes without interlayer.

Even if you wear single clothes one after another, they are not as warm as cotton-padded clothes.

Gu Wenjing was in the line, and his fingers were a little stiff because of the cold. He was pretty good. He had always exercised, being strong and resistant to freezing. He also saw other thin candidates shivering in the cold wind, and some people fell down and burned unconsciously before the gate of the Gongyuan was opened.

Every year in Chunwei, someone will get sick or even die in the examination room.

Gu Wenjing was blowing a bitter cold wind, and finally waited for the Gongyuan to open the door.

After being searched by the officers and soldiers, he entered the Gongyuan, because there were a lot of braziers in the Gongyuan, and there were high walls to block the cold wind, making it much warmer than the outside of the Gongyuan.

However, I felt warm when I first entered, and when I entered the cramped room, I still felt cold, without a trace of heat.

Gu Wenjing couldn't help but ordered charcoal in advance to bring up the stove, and boiled a pot of boiling water.

He also ignored that drinking hot water could easily scald the esophagus and cause cancer of the esophagus. In such a cold weather, a cup of hot water fell on his stomach, and he felt the whole person warmed up. Then he warmed up in the cramped room and exercised to warm up his body.

Otherwise, the fingers will be frozen, how can I take the exam?

At this time, he missed the air conditioner in the modern world very much. Whether it was too hot or too cold, he had to rely on it to continue his life!

When Gu Wenjing was warming up, someone came to hand out papers. When the examiners patrolling the examination room passed by his room, they couldn't help casting surprised eyes at him when they saw him doing all kinds of strange movements.

Regarding this, he saluted several examiners, neither humble nor arrogant, and then continued to warm up after they left.

However, Gu Wenjing's performance left a deep impression on several examiners.

After Gu Wenjing warmed up, he rubbed his hands and began to pour warm water into the inkstone to rub the ink.

In this weather, he used cold water to rub the ink, and he was afraid it would freeze.
