Raising husband in Zhai Douwen

Chapter 30 Cruise Ship

After the autumn, candidates from all over the country went to Beijing to take the exam one after another, preparing to participate in the second year's spring.

The entire capital city, especially inns, teahouses, bookshops and other places, became more lively because of the influx of candidates.

On this day, Yang Jiming was listlessly patrolling the street, as if he would immediately fall asleep when he stopped.

Chen Tao who was with him couldn't help asking with concern: "You have been dark-eyed recently, what's wrong?"

"Working on errands during the day and studying at night, I haven't had a good night's sleep for several days in a row."

"Are you studying?" Chen Tao said in shock, they all thought that Yang Jiming would just hang around as an errand in Shuntian Mansion.

Yang Jiming yawned again and again, "I promised my wife that next year I will take the exam for a child student, and he hired a teacher to teach me to read in the mansion."

Chen Tao laughed and said: "Your family is looking forward to your husband Jackie Chan! Brother Jiming, you have to work harder, don't let your wife down."

Yang Jiming sighed, "I just haven't had a good rest." Even the happy couple life is gone.When I lay down on the bed, I just want to close my eyes and sleep.

Thinking of this, Yang Jiming couldn't help but sighed again.

Chen Tao thought about it. He accompanied Xu Yihuan to the Shang Mansion before, and he seemed to have seen the Second Young Master Shang. In his impression, he vaguely remembered that he was a person like the breeze and bright moon, just like the one not far away...

"Hey, Jiming, do you think that person looks like your wife?"

Yang Jiming looked in the direction he was pointing at, and suddenly opened his eyes wide, really...

Wait, who is that man next to Jing Shuo?

Yang Jiming couldn't help trembling, and walked towards them quickly.

Seeing his appearance of being suspected of catching a rape, Chen Tao hurriedly chased after him, grabbed his arm and reminded: "Ask the matter clearly first, don't be impulsive."

"En." Yang Jiming responded perfunctorily.

Soon, the two men in official uniforms stood in front of Shang Jiayan.

Shang Jiayan frowned, smiled and called him, "Ji Ming."

Yang Jiming looked at him aggrievedly, then looked warily at the strange man beside him, and said with a blunt smile: "Jing Shuo, why are you here?"

Shang Jiayan gave him a squinting look, seeing him like this, he knew he was being jealous again.

"I came to see Mr. Meng's appointment, and I happened to see my cousin." Shang Jiayan said, "Let me introduce you. Yuanan, this is my husband Yang Jiming. Jiming, this is my cousin Lu Yuanan from my aunt's family in Cangzhou and His book boy, Yuan'an, is here to participate in the Spring Festival next year."

Lu Yuan'an saluted Yang Jiming as a scholar, and said, "Yuan'an has met his cousin's husband. He arrived in the capital for the first time today and was about to join his uncle and aunt. I didn't expect to meet my cousin Yan on the way."

Yang Jiming nodded and said with a smile: "It turns out that they are relatives of my family. They will come to the mansion to play some other day."

"Okay, thank you cousin."

Shang Jiayan said to Lu Yuanan: "I agreed to someone else's invitation today, and I will ask Huai'an to send you to Shangfu."

Yang Jiming saw that Shang Jiayan had only Huai'an with him, so he said, "Let Huai'an follow you, and I will send my cousin to Shang's residence."

Lu Yuanan hurriedly said: "Don't bother my cousin and cousin husband, we came here during the Chinese New Year last year, and we know the way."

Yang Jiming smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll take my cousin there, and I happen to be going there as I patrol the streets."

Chen Tao was silent and supported his brothers with actions.Running a few more streets or something is a trivial matter.

Shang Jiayan glanced at Yang Jiming lightly, full of helplessness.

Lu Yuanan observed them calmly, with a faint smile in his eyes. "Then there is Cousin Lao."

So, Shang Jiayan went to the Jinghua Tower to attend the appointment, Yang Jiming led Lu Yuanan, master and servant, to the Shang Mansion, and Chen Tao went with them.

On the way, Lu Yuanan said: "When cousin Yan and his cousin-in-law got married, I was studying at home to prepare for the exam, so I didn't come to congratulate him. Please don't mind my cousin-in-law."

Yang Jiming said nonchalantly, "My marriage with Jing Shuo was rushed, and none of my relatives and friends from other places invited me."

Lu Yuanan smiled awkwardly but politely.

Chen Tao walked on the other side of Yang Jiming, and quietly touched him with his elbow.

Yang Jiming was stunned for a moment, and then said to Lu Yuanan with a shy smile, "Cousin, let me call you Yuanan."

"Cousin, please feel free."

"Yuan'an went to Beijing to prepare for the scientific examination so early, what plans do you have during this time?"

Chen Tao's elbow gently poked Yang Jiming again.

Yang Jiming came to his senses and continued to smile embarrassingly, "Don't mind my cousin, I just care about you."

Lu Yuan'an couldn't help but deepened the smile on his lips, and replied: "I came to the Shang Mansion not only to visit my uncle and aunt, but also to ask them to take us in temporarily."

Yang Jiming smiled awkwardly, and said, "Father-in-law, second uncle and eldest brother are all knowledgeable people, Yuan'an can discuss more knowledge with them."

Lu Yuanan nodded, "What my cousin said is true." Yang Jiming sighed secretly, as if the more he said it, the more inappropriate it became, so he decided not to say it.

When they arrived at the gate of Shangfu, Shang Jiashu just came back from Dali Temple.

"Ji Ming, Yuan'an, why are you here together?"

"When I was patrolling the streets, I happened to meet cousin Yuan'an, so I sent him here."

"Yuan'an has met the eldest cousin."

Shang Jiashu nodded to him, and when he saw the luggage carried by his master and servant, he knew that he had come to Beijing in advance to prepare for the exam.

Yang Jiming said: "Send Yuan'an, and I will continue to patrol the streets."

Shang Jiashu looked at his slightly tired look, and said to him: "Pay attention to rest, don't work too hard."

Immediately, Yang Jiming couldn't help looking at him in surprise, and said happily, "Thank you, brother, for your concern."

Chen Tao also raised his hand in salute, left with Yang Jiming, and continued to patrol the streets.

Yang Jiming let out a long sigh.

Chen Tao laughed and said, "That man is Madam Zun's cousin, it's just a small misunderstanding, why are you sighing again?"

"The people in my daughter-in-law's natal family are all excellent, and I am under a lot of pressure."

"Eh..." Chen Tao scratched his head, trying to comfort him. "You have worked very hard. There is a saying about late bloomers, some people grow up early, and some people grow up late."

"It's a late bloomer, my teacher is like that."

"You'll be a late bloomer too."

Yang Jiming sighed: "I hope, I have to continue to study hard at night. It would be too shameful if I failed the children's test."

Chen Tao patted him on the shoulder, "Don't put too much pressure on it. You can tell the head catcher not to arrange street patrol work for you in the future. When you are guarding in the yamen, you can take time to read. If you understand, you can also ask other adults and masters for advice."

Immediately, Yang Jiming's eyes lit up, "Thank you Brother Tao for reminding me."

After patrolling the streets and returning to the Yamen, Yang Jiming made a request to Zhang Yong.Knowing that he was preparing for the exam, Zhang Yong agreed without saying a word.

On the other side, after Shang Jiayan came to the private room of Jinghua Building, Meng Xi greeted him with a smile.

Shang Jiayan glanced around, most of the people who came were the princes whom he met on the birthday party of Dingguo's mansion.

He walked to Wen Xu and sat down on the vacant seat, and said apologetically, "Sorry, I'm late, please forgive me, gentlemen."

Everyone said it was okay.

Wen Xu asked in a low voice: "You always value time, why are you late today?"

"On the way here, I met my cousin first, and then met my husband. I talked to them a few words, and then I was delayed for a while."

"I heard that Young Master Yang is going to patrol the streets?"

"That's right, he's a policeman from Shuntian Mansion."

Meng Xi came over and said with a smile: "What are Mrs. Yang and Mr. Wen talking about? I seem to hear you talking about arrest."

Shang Jiayan squinted his eyes imperceptibly, and said: "Young Master Meng has not been in the capital for a long time, I wonder if you have tasted the signature dishes of Jinghualou, many of them are not inferior to the imperial cuisine."

Meng Xi said with a smile: "Before I invited you here, I asked about it. After the dishes are served in a while, you must taste them carefully, and everyone should taste them too."

Everyone else responded with a smile.

After the meal, Meng Xi suggested that everyone go on a cruise together.

These sons are all people who have been locked up in the mansion for a long time, and it is rare to meet someone who has taken the same pregnancy medicine as myself, and they all agreed quickly.

In the end, Shang Jiayan also boarded the cruise ship with them as kindly as he could.

The cruise ship reached the middle of the Yu River, and not long after, someone on the boat next door said to them: "We are all candidates for this year's imperial examination, and we are discussing the style of writing of the famous scholars of the dynasty together. I wonder if you are interested?"

The young masters couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, they stayed in the cabin and didn't go out, and they didn't speak.

Meng Xi had a half-smile and didn't say a word.

Wen Xu quietly tugged on Shang Jiayan's sleeve, and said with his eyes: "Quickly think of a way."

Shang Jiayan nodded to him comfortingly, and then whispered a few words to Huai'an.

Huai An walked to the bow of the boat and said to the people on the other boat: "My young lady said that the young masters are from other places, and they probably don't know how deep the Yu River in the capital is."

Several examinees on the boat looked at each other in blank dismay, and asked in confusion: "Dare to ask my brother, what do you mean by this?"

Huai'an glanced at them expressionlessly, and then let the boatman dock.

The boatman was slightly taken aback, and looked at Meng Xi who was paying.

Meng Xi glanced at Shang Jiayan's cold expression, and nodded to the boatman.

The cruise ship sailed back to the shore, and everyone on the other cruise ship was unknown.

Someone asked the boatman, "Is there a man and wife from a rich family on that boat?"

"Probably so." The boatman thought for a while, "If you talk about a man and wife from a wealthy family in the capital, it's probably the third young lady from Wumuhou's mansion."

"Hou Fu?" The faces of these candidates couldn't help turning pale, for fear that they would be self-defeating and offend the powerful.

"That young lady is Lord Shangshu's son, and the family members are all high-ranking officials."

Immediately, the faces of the candidates turned paler.

The reason why they rented a cruise ship to get close to that ship was because they overheard what one of them said by chance, and wanted to take this opportunity to get acquainted with the rich and powerful.

After the boat rented by Meng Xi docked, the sons and sons went ashore one by one, and they seemed not in the mood to continue playing, so they bid farewell.

Meng Xi apologized to everyone and sent them away.

Shang Jiayan and Wen Xu were one step behind, and Meng Xi also apologized to them.

Wen Xu said: "No one expected such a thing to happen, Mr. Meng don't need to take it to heart."

He couldn't help but think that everyone should just be a little bit emotional or sad.If they are not taking pregnancy pills, they can also take the imperial examination and have a chance to realize their ambitions.

But Shang Jiayan looked at Meng Xi sharply, and said in front of Wen Xu: "What is the purpose of Mr. Meng, you might as well speak up."

Meng Xi was stunned for a moment, looking at Shang Jiayan's serious expression, and then at Wen Xu's surprised and puzzled expression, he couldn't help laughing.
