Across the heavens in the Red Mansion

Chapter 166 Time passes, bad news from Yangzhou

At the Luming Banquet, Jia Lang and Zhang Shouju thanked each other.

Like other classmates, I started to get to know each other with others in the same year.

However, this process was not so harmonious. Most of the new imperial examination candidates were friendly with Jia Lang on the surface, but there were still a few who had high self-esteem or directly separated from Jia Lang because of their stance. between lines,

This is just because of Jia Lang's background. There is indeed a conflict of interest between those who came from noble families and those who came from the literati group. Most of the people who took the new imperial examination came from a family of poets and calligraphers, and a small number of powerful merchants. And from common people.

Although the Literary Group is in conflict with the Xungui Group, this is a situation created by the current reigning Emperor Yong'an to gain power and suppress his father, Emperor Yongxing.

However, even though they are not very interested in Jia Lang, the newcomers among them have done a good job on the surface, and those who treat Jia Lang coldly are only a small number who want to follow suit. In their eyes, Jia Lang is a wealthy family. Bastards are actually not doing very well. At this time, the practice has been the same for bastards since ancient times, especially capable bastards are targeted more when they are minors.

Of course, there were some who wanted to cling to the backing of the Jia Mansion, but their attitudes towards Jia Lang were quite different. Among Jia Lang's three, Gu Yuan, who was the son of an imperial servant, was the most popular among the old and the new.

As the exchange of people began, the chief examiner and Professor Zhao Cheng and other adults had not left yet. Looking at the lively Minglun Hall, they couldn't help making a proposal that the top five new applicants in the provincial examination Make a poem to celebrate, and the veterans present also put forward five congratulatory poems.

The subject matter is not limited, free play, if it is suitable for the scene, it will be the best.

First, five members of the old Juren delegation wrote congratulatory poems, and after reciting them, there were poems by Wu Jingkui of Xinke.

Everyone was filled with admiration, especially Jinke’s Jieyuan, who was Jia Langde’s classmate Chen Jinnan. He was also the leader of the Yingming Society. He could be said to have dominated the limelight in this deer-minging banquet, and the rest were all It flickers slightly under the afterglow.

During the process of composing poems, Jia Lang was in a good mood listening to them, especially Chen Jinnan’s poetic poems, which brought Jia Lang an extraordinary feeling, although there were some small flaws in the whole Luming Banquet , but generally speaking, the Luming Banquet after the rural examination is still very meaningful.

Cultivation of immortality is all about cultivating from a human to an immortal, but before that, you were a human being.

Afterwards, everyone was happy, and after that, no one on the field came to cause trouble. As time passed, after the chief examiner and some important figures of the rural examination had to leave the field, the rest of the people also left the field one after another.

After returning home, Jia Lang can be regarded as knowing the taste of food. He didn't open this hole before, but now that he has opened it, how can I waste you?After all, Jia Lang is at this age when his hormones are starting to kick in.

So when Jia Lang went back to the yard, he lived a little life of being sheltered and coquettish. Unfortunately, there was only one. Qingwen firmly disagreed with this, and she couldn't save face. It was under Lang's compulsion that Shuangjiao co-sleeping took place.

Now that Jia Lang is awake, it is naturally not easy to force others, the main thing is that it is... no... boring.

But Jia Lang is not used to her, he is not Jia Baoyu, he spends so much time coaxing them, it would be fine if he was a hairpin, although Jia Lang was reborn in modern society, he still lives in this feudal society In 16 years, the concept has already been subtly changed a little.

Well, Jia Lang could only sleep with the light and soft Lin Hongyu wrapped in a quilt.

Time flies, half a month has passed since the township examination in August, Jia Lang's life is as usual, occasionally flirting with his roommates in the yard, and then socializing.

However, there were not many social activities belonging to Jia Lang, and most of the literati and noble family members like Jia Lang were still out of touch. Since they were like this, Jia Lang would not go forward to ask for trouble.

During this period, Jia Lang was invited by Chen Jinnan to attend the activities of the Mingming Club, and there were more people, many of whom were familiar faces at the Luming Banquet, and some noble children who had been invited by Feng Ziying and had good friends with Jia's mansion We got to know each other and got together for a while, even Jia Baoyu was among them.

There was also Xue Pan, the eldest brother-in-law that Jia Lang had already reserved, and relying on Jia Lang's means, Xue Pan was naturally subdued. Although he was still arrogant and domineering, he was much more restrained than before.

If it wasn't for Xue Pan's good sister, people like Xue Pan would not be able to get into Jia Lang's eyes.

However, the Gourd Monk's random judgment of the Gourd Monk is also Xue Pan's death lawsuit. In fact, the truth is that two powerful families were played by a small human trafficker to fight each other. Windy, how good can one count on!Xue Pan is an old bastard, and what he cares most about is face.

Anyway, the only real victim in the end is the little girl Xiangling, who is the most ignorant and helpless, and she is a ruthless person like Jia Yucun.

As for Xue Pan, Jia Lang still wanted to try to see if he could be reformed. If he was crippled, he could stay at home for the elderly. Bar!
After all, he is Xue Baochai's elder brother, and Xue Pan is just a bully, see Liu Xianglian and Xia Jingui for details.

With the end of these gatherings, Jia Lang's life has completely calmed down, and he has returned to the level before the rural examination. He is preparing for the next year's spring competition, but his life is more happy than before, and Lin Hongyu is much happier than Qingwen. When things come, Jia Lang is mostly obedient.

Different from Jia Lang, his good friends Gu Yuan and Fang Zheng had a lot of social interactions. One was the son of an imperial servant, and the other had a senior brother like Chen Jinnan. They would not be short of any kind of communication. For Jia Lang's leisure time, they I have expressed envy, but it is only envy rather than yearning.

This is only a busy month after the end of the rural examination, and then it will slowly calm down.

But Jia's mansion received big news,
Mr. Lin from Yangzhou is dying. Before leaving, he hopes to see his daughter again.

This is bad news for the Jia family, Lin Ruhai is also a member of the party, just for the life of his daughter and the filial piety he has done for his dead wife, he sends a lot of filial piety to the Jia family every year.

Apart from Lin Daiyu in Jia's mansion, it was Jia's mother who was the saddest. Back then, Lin Ruhai was so favored by them, otherwise they wouldn't have entrusted their beloved daughter to him.
