The scumbag son-in-law dressed as a husband

"Brother Zuo, please."

With a smile on Jiang Hong's face, he welcomed Zuo Ran into a quiet room for receiving guests. He said that this was the first time that this quiet room welcomed guests in the past few days.

Wan Linming, the magistrate, didn't have this kind of treatment before, but just met Jiang Hong in the hall.

Because they knew in advance that the main house was going to entertain guests, the servants of Jiang's mansion had already cleaned the quiet room, and prepared the incense box of flowers and the hot water tea group.

Zuo Ran smiled happily, and helped Wang Jing's arm to cross the threshold, his old eyes narrowed slightly and glanced at the layout of the quiet room, he couldn't help but nodded and praised: "Brother Jiang Xian, the layout here is really interesting! "

After Zuo Ran sat down tremblingly, his gray eyebrows twitched, and he looked carefully at Xie Shu who was following behind Jiang Hong, and said with appreciation: "I heard from my apprentice a few days ago that your new recruit I met a high-ranking apprentice, and seeing him today, it is really different."

With a smile in Jiang Hong's eyes, he only said a few words modestly, and then said nothing else.

Now that the host and the guests have been seated, tea is bound to be indispensable for the next conversation.

People nowadays regard cooking tea as a fashion, so not only ordinary "loose tea" but also "round tea" and "end tea" are prepared in the quiet room. Whether it is round tea or end tea, it needs to be washed, Steaming buds, pressing tablets and other processes can only be completed, and only group tea and powdered tea can be used for making tea, and because it is not easy to preserve and make, it is rarely kept at home.

But this quiet room not only has everything available, there is a small stove next to it with hot water simmering, which is convenient for taking at any time when ordering tea.

That's why Zuo Ran thought it was elegant when he saw it just now. A quiet room like this is really rare.

Therefore, Zuo Ran suggested: "Such a quiet room with beautiful scenery and elegant place is just right for you to appreciate the way of making tea. Presumably Jiang Xiandi's disciple is very proficient in this way. My disciple is usually also interested in making tea, but he has always been dull. Now it's just rough, but it's good to have the word 'elegant' for tea, why not let the two of them do whatever they want today, it's all about elegance."

As soon as Zuo Ran finished speaking, Wang Jing also slowly raised her eyes, quietly looking at Xie Shu who was sitting face to face with him. Before learning that Xie Shu became Jiang Hong's disciple, Wang Jing never expected that the other party would have One day I will be on an equal footing with myself.

But up to now, Wang Jing still doesn't understand.

Xie Shu has not become famous in the past few years, on the contrary, it can be said that his reputation is not good, so Wang Jing's impression of Xie Shu is also very weak.

But just a few months ago, Xie Shu suddenly wrote that blockbuster peach blossom poem at the poetry conference, and Wang Jing paid a little attention to Xie Shu, but at that time, the gap between Xie Shu and him was still as far as a gap.

Afterwards, Xie Shu fell silent as before, and Wang Jing no longer paid attention to this short-lived "talented scholar". He only occasionally heard gossip about Xie Shu and the Yu family, and Wang Jing just laughed it off.

It wasn't until two days ago that Wang Jing realized that this person was silently ahead of everyone and worshiped Jiang Hong, who had just returned to Jinling, as his teacher!

Among them, Wang Jing didn't believe that there was no reason. Is it because Xie Shu is really so outstanding that Jiang Hong, whose former apprentice was Ziwei Ling, took a look at him at a glance, or there are other reasons I don't know...

Wang Jing was very curious, and at the same time, he didn't know why. He looked at Xie Shu who had a calm face in front of him, and suddenly a complex mood that he had never had before rose in his heart. He couldn't tell whether it was fighting spirit or something else...

In short, Wang Jing really wanted to compete with this person.

Hearing Zuo Ran's words, Jiang Hong had nothing to do, but Jiang Hong didn't say anything to agree to Xie Shu first, but to see if Xie Shu had this intention.

Xie Shu's face could not help showing a bit of distress, this way of tea has long been lost in modern times.

These days, Xie Shu hardly ever went out to gather people to visit friends, so naturally he had no way of learning.

But at home, Mr. and Mrs. often drink tea, but Mr. Mrs. is usually busy with affairs, so how can he do such trivial things by himself, so others do it, and Xie Shu has no way to understand it.

But at a time like this, if you bluntly say no, you're fine, but Xie Shu is worried, will you lose the face of the teacher?

Just when Xie Shu was thinking about how to answer, Jiang Hong had already seen some clues.

Although Jiang Hong was a little surprised that Xie Shu didn't know how to make tea in the most popular fashion among literati, he thought about it. He heard that the Yu family was very rich, so it might be difficult for Xie Shu to do it himself?

It's just that Jiang Hong never minded such trivial matters. He didn't accept this disciple to cook tea for him.Besides, Xie Shu's strengths are already good enough, and there are some weaknesses as well.

So Jiang Hong said bluntly: "My disciple was born in a rich dude, and he doesn't have the slightest bit of elegance. He really made Brother Zuo laugh, so let Brother Zuo's high-ranking apprentice show his skills."

A trace of regret flashed in Zuo Ran's eyes when he heard the words, just now he saw Xie Shu's elegant appearance and handsome demeanor, although he knew before that he was the son-in-law of a merchant, but thought he was a little different, unexpectedly...

No matter how outstanding Xie Shu's talent and learning is, how can he do it if he doesn't even have the backbone of a literati? Why would Jiang Hong take a fancy to such a disciple?

Therefore, Zuo Ran's expression faded a little, and he just nodded slightly.

But Wang Jing's gaze paused before he retracted it, and then he showed a respectful smile on his face: "The junior is not talented, he is making a fool of himself."

Afterwards, Jiang Hong chatted with Zuo Ran, and the two hadn't seen each other for a long time. Over the years, only through a few letters, even the current situation of each other was not clear, so naturally they had a lot to say.

Among them, Zuo Ran couldn't help but ask about Jiang Hong's resignation. Jiang Hong's speech was the same as what he said in front of Xuanzhen that day, but he said that he was too old and unable to do what he wanted.

Even though this is said, how much do the listeners believe?But Zuo Ran didn't continue to ask, and turned to talk about the Guozijian.

It turns out that this time Zuo Ran came to ask for something.

This Guozijian is the highest school in the world. There are two types of students it recruits. The first type is the supervising students, which is also the most numerous. Supervising students refer to those born with the gift of the emperor, and most of them are children of aristocratic families.

Another category is Gongsheng. Gongsheng means that one or two outstanding students are selected from all over the country to study in the Imperial College every year.

Because Wang Jing is going to take the Beijing Examination next year, most candidates will enter Beijing early to avoid being too late.

But after all, it is thousands of miles away in the capital city, so how can it be so easy to enter Beijing to catch up for the exam?In addition, after entering the capital, it is also very important to choose a quiet place to live.

Originally, Zuo Ran hadn't thought of this. After all, he didn't care about fame and wealth, and he didn't set foot on the road of imperial examination. If Wang Jing hadn't reminded him, he would have almost delayed the student's major event.

Last year, Wang Jing won the top spot in the provincial examination and got the title of Jieyuan. This test is definitely not a problem, but if there are other things that bother her, she can't be sure.

But if Wang Jing is selected as a tribute student and enters the Imperial College to study, all this will be safe and sound.

First of all, he became a Gongsheng student, and he was escorted by officers and soldiers to the capital. Secondly, a place like Guozijian must also be a clean place.

Of course, with Wang Jing's status, it was easy to choose Gongsheng, but Zuo Ran was far away in Jinling after all, and he didn't know the situation in Beijing, so he had to ask a few times.

Hearing Zuo Ran's words, Jiang Hong frowned indiscriminately. As the former Guozijian sacrificial wine, Jiang Hong knew the situation of Guozijian very well.

Even though he has cleared up the ethos of Guozijian a lot in these years, as long as the students of Guozijian are still mainly from aristocratic families, then this place is not suitable for children from poor families, and Guozijian is definitely not a clean place.

And he voluntarily resigned, and although he handed over the position of offering sacrifices to the Guozijian to his former deputy Ren Jie, Ren Jie lacked courage, so the atmosphere of the Guozijian might not be as good as before.

But how easy it is for Jiang Hong to say this, he can't just refuse, after all, his friendship with Zuo Ran is not as good as that with Xuanzhen.

And it depends on what Wang Jing thinks...

Only then did Jiang Hong turn his gaze to Wang Jing, only to see that Wang Jing's expression remained unchanged, he was kneeling on the side of the fire and preparing for some tea.

Just now he had ground the tea cake into powder, and then pounded it into small pieces with a tea hammer, and ground it into a fine powder.

These fine powders do not even need to be sieved with Luohe, which shows its uniqueness, and the tea paste prepared with purified water gradually takes shape, and the movements are smooth and smooth, which is pleasing to the eye.

Jiang Hong nodded with a smile and said: "Brother Zuo, your disciple is very knowledgeable in tea art! Presumably the same is true for learning. With a famous teacher like Brother Zuo, why bother to look far away?"

As soon as Jiang Hong finished speaking, Zuo Ran didn't think too much about it, he just thought it was Jiang Hong's casual praise, only Wang Jing's eyes darkened slightly.

Wang Jing had already planned to go to the Imperial College this time. He knew the situation of the Imperial College. Since he was going to enter the court sooner or later, this Imperial College was only the first step.

Therefore, Wang Jing said respectfully: "I will tell you nothing about Mr. Jiang. I heard that the son of the state supervised the people of the world, and there were people like Mr. Jiang here. I yearn for it. If the exam is coming tonight, but the teacher is already old, the junior I also don’t want my mentor to work so hard for the junior, and I hope that Mr. Jiang will make it happen.”

Wang Jing's words made sense, Jiang Hong's eyes narrowed, and he said slowly: "The Imperial College is no better than other places, have you really thought about it?"

Wang Jing also gave an affirmative answer this time.

Seeing this, Jiang Hong didn't stop persuading, but Jiang Hong suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help reminding: "After you enter the Imperial Academy, you only need to close the door to study, don't walk around casually, and don't get involved in any disputes!"

When Jiang Hong said this, he also remembered that the third prince wanted to intervene in the Imperial College, so he casually raised his voice.

The meaning of his words is unclear, and others can't think of it.

So Jiang Hong didn't notice that after Wang Jing finished listening, the movements of her hands suddenly paused.

At this time, Xie Shu saw this scene. Although he didn't know much about ordering tea, he saw that Wang Jing's movements were smooth just now, but now when he hit the whisk with the tea wand, he was shaking a bit.

Soon, as hot water was poured into the tea, fine tea foam appeared, and the last step of ordering tea was officially completed.

However, neither Zuo Ran nor Jiang Hong mentioned the quality of the tea. In fact, this tea is not bad, but there is still some distance from the real color like white foam. Of course, in the eyes of Zuo Ran and Jiang Hong, Wang Jing It's normal to be affected just now.

When Xie Shu took the tea from Wang Jing's hand, he stared at him. Wang Jing suddenly showed him a slight smile. He had a thin outline, but his eyes were not dull, but there was some kind of sharp light in them.

After sending Mr. Zuo Ran away, Xie Shu was a little absent-minded because of the previous incident. Jiang Hong also saw this and gave Xie Shu a day off.

Xie Shu returned home early today, and immediately walked towards Ting Yuyuan.

Xie Shu just stopped when he saw Mr. Lang.

And Yu Chuxi walked in front of him, blinking her long eyelashes slightly, her eyes were worried, and looked at him carefully, as if she was observing something.

Seeing that Mr. Lang was careful not to approach him, Xie Shu lowered his gaze, and suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Mr. Lang.

And Lang Jun looked defenseless, as if he could fall into his arms with a slight force, Xie Shu couldn't help but smiled and said: "Lang Jun, I have asked Xi Mo to tell you the reason , why do you still look like this?"

Yu Chuxi was caught off guard and pulled to him, his heart skipped a beat, before he had time to react, when he heard Xie Shu's words, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Washing ink? He didn't come back just now... ..”
