Scholar and old attack
Chapter 50
"Bah bah bah, a fishy mouth."
Wei Liangjun hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeve, and spit several times, his face full of bitterness.
Fang Xinli hurriedly got up from Wei Liangjun's body, blushed, smoothed his hair in a concealed manner, and stammered, "Well...we're just kidding."
Jiang Jingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but nodded indifferently, "I see, do you want to grill fish together?"
"Cough, cough, okay." Fang Xinli let go of his nervous hand, and immediately agreed, and finally kicked Wei Liangjun who was lying on the ground, "Did you hear me, hurry up."
"Oh oh oh, I'll get up now." Wei Liangjun got up from the ground, his clothes were already dirty, and he ran back to change.
As night fell, the three of them lit a bonfire by the river and were grilling fish—but only Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli did it.
Jiang Jingyuan sat aside and played with the jade pendant in his hand.
"Obviously he was the one who asked us to come over to eat the grilled fish. Why did we do the grilling in the end, but he was the one who ate it?" Fang Xinli kept turning the fish on the grill while looking at Jiang Jingyuan muttering.
Wei Liangjun paid attention to the heat from time to time, and sprinkled seasoning on it when he saw that it was almost done. Hearing Fang Xinli's words, he muttered, "Who said that he will be an official disciple in the future, and you are just a registered disciple. Aren't registered disciples all trying to curry favor with the inner disciples?" .”
Fang Xinli nodded. It was a good thing to say, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Wei Liangjun saw that Fang Xinli was not entangled in the daytime affairs, and his heart sank to the ground. Sure enough, he was as easy to deceive as he was when he was a child.
"Hey, what are you playing with in your hand? I think you've been touching it for a long time." Wei Liangjun came to Jiang Jingyuan's side with a grilled fish and asked.
Jiang Jingyuan put the jade pendant in his arms, took the grilled fish, took a bite and tasted it, and praised, "It tastes good, I didn't expect that you two rich people are quite good at cooking."
"That's right." Wei Liangjun smiled smugly, "I'm not boasting, when we were in school, we often sneaked to catch the fish raised by Mr. to roast."
"Your husband still raises fish." Jiang Jingyuan listened amusedly.
"Well, what about a pool of fish, every time you are punished by Mr., you will use his fish to vent your anger. After a long time, you will naturally learn a good skill."
Fang Xinli also replied with a smile, the schools they went to were built by a few wealthy families in Wutong County with their own money.
"Then your husband hasn't noticed it." Jiang Jingyuan heard it interestingly. Since he is a fish lover, he probably remembers the fish in the fish pond clearly.
"Why didn't I find out, every time I jumped up in anger, chasing everyone to fight, but his physical strength couldn't keep up, the thunder was loud and the rain was little, hahaha."
Recalling what happened in the school, Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli both laughed heartily.
Jiang Jingyuan leaned against the tree trunk, a little envious, he had never experienced the joy of being in a school.
In the past, when I went to school, all the teachers and classmates treated him like a porcelain doll. Even talking to him was soft, let alone making jokes with him.
"After talking for a long time, you haven't told me what you're playing with. Don't think I don't know you're changing the subject."
As Wei Liangjun spoke, he changed the subject again.
Jiang Jingyuan's eyebrows jumped, so he hated dealing with smart people.
He took out the jade pendant in his arms, gave him a look by the light of the fire, and put it away again.
Wei Liangjun stretched out his hands to pick it up, but Jiang Jingyuan didn't intend to show it to him at all, so he curled his lips, "I'm stingy, I just took a look."
"My husband's dowry, it's not enough for you to see it." Jiang Jingyuan gave him a slight sideways glance. It was a friend who showed it to him, and it wasn't a friend who didn't even have a chance to see it.
Wei Liangjun added a fire to the fire, and said with a smile, "It's the brother who brought you things that day, I've seen it on the boat before."
"Ah."
"Is it a concubine's room?"
"No, she's a regular wife, and you can marry a regular wife dignifiedly." Jiang Jingyuan shook his head, speaking sonorously and forcefully.
Now both Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli were terrified, "Aren't you going to take the imperial examination?"
"Test, why don't you take the exam." Jiang Jingyuan finished eating the grilled fish in his hand and grilled his hands over the fire. After several days of rain, he still felt a little cold.
"If you let other students know that you married a brother as your wife, they will definitely laugh at you, and some examiners will not admit you because of this." Fang Xinli said seriously.
This is not a matter that can be joked casually. The Ming Dynasty has a strict hierarchy, and it is natural for ordinary people to marry a brother, so no one will talk about it.
But if you enter the examination room or officialdom, you may not even be able to pass the first pass.
Of course, there are those who love elder brothers, so marrying them back home as a concubine is naturally not a problem, but as a regular wife, even if it makes you the number one scholar, it is still a joke.
The imperial court has always been good-faced, and will never regress in this respect.
"It's okay, I used to think that the purpose of taking the imperial examination was to make my family's life better and to protect myself from being bullied. I think I have another goal now." Jiang Jingyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, appearing to be in a great mood.
Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli looked at Jiang Jingyuan like a fool, "What target."
"In order for my husband to know that this is my real wife when someone mentions it one day, he is upright and upright and the media is marrying the real wife who came in." Jiang Jingyuan raised his head, full of confidence in his chest.
Fang Xinli was admired by Jiang Jingyuan's rhetoric, and at the same time, a sense of envy for Xu Shuizhou arose in his heart. If he could meet a husband who loved him so much, he would be willing to die for him.
"Um, brother, I admire your kindness, but it's too difficult. You can't even get into the examination room, so how can you achieve your goal?" Wei Liangjun was stunned for a long time, admiring Jiang Jingyuan, but he He had to pour a basin of cold water on Jiang Jingyuan.
"If you don't try it, how will you know it won't work? There has never been a clear document in the Ming Dynasty that stipulates that candidates are not allowed to marry their elder brothers as their regular wives. All of this is just based on what others say."
It's not that Jiang Jingyuan is not clear about this matter, but so what, no matter whether his road ahead is full of floods or thorns, he just walks through the thorns and thorns all the way.
"I support you! If you need help in the future, just ask." As a brother, Fang Xinli admired Jiang Jingyuan immensely.
It is because he is a brother that he knows how unfair this world is to a brother.
She obviously has nothing to lose to women, but she wants to be inferior to women, so she can only be a concubine.
If his parents hadn't been cruel and disguised him as a man, he might have married someone else as a concubine.
The child born is also a concubine, and he can't even inherit the family business. He can only please his aunt, hoping that she can reward him with more property when he grows up.
How sad.
Wei Liangjun curled his lips and lowered his head to eat the grilled fish in his hands. Although he didn't say whether he supported or not, he still moved closer to Jiang Jingyuan in action.
Jiang Jingyuan had a smile on his brows, and he was like a spring breeze as always, "Don't worry, I will definitely speak up when I have difficulties. I have told you so much today, and it is not just a small talk."
? ? ? !
Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli were dumbfounded, were they being fooled by Jiang Jingyuan again?
"You have too many eyes, even your friends are willing to plot." Wei Liangjun raised his eyelids, took out a handkerchief and wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.
"If I'm not a friend, I don't plan on him. How can I help?" Jiang Jingyuan looked at Wei Liangjun and said.
"Did I say I wouldn't help?" Wei Liangjun rolled his eyes, but after eating a meal of the grilled fish he cooked himself, Jiang Jingyuan dragged him into the thief's boat. He asked someone to reason.
"And you." Jiang Jingyuan turned his gaze to Fang Xinli again.
"Can I say no?" Fang Xinli instinctively felt that Jiang Jingyuan's plot was not small, and there were many difficulties in this matter itself. If he fell into it, it would not be so easy to get out.
"I can't." Jiang Jingyuan stretched his legs and said casually, "If you don't help me, I'll tell you the identity of your brother. I think the anecdote that a brother was admitted to a scholar will definitely spread. From the north to the south."
"Jiang Jingyuan! You have such a vicious heart, how did you know that!" Fang Xin immediately stood up, broke the wooden fork in his hand, with a fierce look on his face.
"I heard it." Jiang Jingyuan leaned on the trunk and embraced his hands, with a calm expression on his face, "You two are making such a loud noise in the rain, can I not hear you?"
"Then you still pretend to be stupid." Fang Xinli was so angry that he kicked Wei Liangjun who was sitting on the ground, "It's all because of you."
Wei Liangjun was kicked to the ground, "..."
"Be safe and don't be impatient, as long as you are willing to help me, I promise not to say anything." Jiang Jingyuan raised his hand and stopped Fang Xinli who was on the verge of rage.
"Tell me, what exactly do you want us to do." He really sold himself and returned the money to Jiang Jingyuan!
"You don't need to do anything now, just take the imperial examination at ease." Jiang Jingyuan smiled.
"Imperial examination, I heard you right. As a brother of mine, I had to hide carefully even if I was admitted as a scholar. If you let me go to the exam again, if someone finds out, I will not be punished by the nine clans."
Fang Xinli patted his head and felt dizzy. After this, he was really on a thief ship. If he didn't go to the imperial examination, he would be exposed by Jiang Jingyuan. If he went to the imperial examination, he would be exposed by others.
Wei Liangjun said that there is no problem. He was planning to continue the imperial examination, but he also looked melancholy. You can’t turn it over, let alone take the Juren or Jinshi exam.”
"You two don't have to worry too much after joining Grand Master Gu's door." Jiang Jingyuan smiled, as if he was going farther and farther on the road of pulling the tiger's skin and pulling the banner.
"It's true to say so, but we are only registered disciples." Wei Liangjun still disagrees a little. Gu Renhuai has countless registered disciples. easy to say.
Jiang Jingyuan patted Wei Liangjun on the shoulder, "Isn't there still me here?"
"Okay, as long as you don't reveal my identity, I can pass the imperial examination, but Jiang Jingyuan, you have to grill fish for me today." Fang Xinli is a master who does not want to suffer at all. He worked hard for Jiang Jingyuan for a day today, tired He was so exhausted that he even sold her.
I feel a little uncomfortable psychologically, and I have to ask for it back.
"Are you sure?" Jiang Jing raised his eyebrows.
"Sure!"
"Okay." Jiang Jingyuan resigned himself to grilling fish for Fang Xinli, but the result was self-evident, it was so black that he couldn't eat it.
"Jiang Jingyuan, you did it on purpose!" Fang Xinli was furious.
"I'm not, I haven't, I won't." Jiang Jingyuan denied it three times.
----
After a busy month, the sky finally cleared up.
So everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This corvée was considered the easiest one. Everyone had wine and meat to eat, and they were not sick or exhausted.
Therefore, all the folks expressed their gratitude to Jiang Jingyuan and the three of them.
When he left, he even pulled them to thank him, so he almost knelt down and kowtowed.
"Jiang Jingyuan will be here forever." Fang Xinli's housekeeper came to pick him up, stepped into the carriage and waved to Jiang Jingyuan, expressing that he never wanted to see this person again.
It's embarrassing enough for him to be a good son and brother to be a servant for others, and it's strange that Jiang Jingyuan tricked him into wanting to see him.
"Farewell!" Wei Liangjun also clasped his fists at Jiang Jingyuan with lingering fear, and ran to chase Fang Xinli, "Hey, wait for me, we agreed to go back together."
"Go on your own."
……
Jiang Jingyuan smiled softly, looked at their backs going away, carried his own things on his back, and left the camp on foot.
Walking on the trail, Jiang Jingyuan smiled, and sure enough, he saw a young man in Tsing Yi standing on the road ahead, leading a horse, waiting for him.
Seeing his figure, the boy rushed over to hug him, and said softly, "I'll pick you up."
"You've lost weight after a month." Xu Shuizhou touched Jiang Jingyuan's body distressedly, and then pinched Jiang Jingyuan's cheek.
I don't know what kind of hardships A Yuan has suffered in this month. When I go back, I have to give A Yuan a good nourishment. I just made a lot of money recently.
Xu Shuizhou's small face was wrinkled into a bun, and he was trying to figure out how to make up for A Yuan with his fingers.
However, Jiang Jingyuan twitched the corners of his mouth. He has been busy every day for a month, and he has no time to sit down and rest. Not to mention his physical exercise, his appetite, which has always been weak, has improved a lot.
So he looks thinner, but his body is firmer.
On the contrary, his Ah Zhou was really thinner, and his waist became so full that he could hold it. It was obvious that the size was wrong in the hug just now.
"I'm not thin. Squeeze the flesh on my body. Is it a little hard? This is a sign of getting better." Jiang Jingyuan took Xu Shuizhou's hand and pinched it on his shoulder.
Xu Shuizhou pinched it twice, his eyes were bright, and he looked surprised, "Really, it's hard and bulging."
Jiang Jingyuan put on a stern face, "It's because you have lost a lot of weight, and you don't have any flesh on your body."
"Huh?" Xu Shuizhou raised his eyes cautiously, and saw Jiang Jingyuan holding his arm with a straight face, "I think you want to be thinner."
"Who told you to leave for a month, and it's all your fault." Xu Shuizhou observed Jiang Jingyuan's expression while talking, "Look, it's all your fault, I punish you to go home and feed me fat."
Jiang Jingyuan pinched Xu Shuizhou's face, the two dimples on his small face were bigger than his, "So it's still my fault."
"That's not true." Xu Shuizhou snickered, revealing a few white and tender teeth.
"You really make people love and hate."
Jiang Jingyuan couldn't laugh or cry, facing such a lovely person, he really couldn't get angry at all.
"Do you hate more, or love more?" Xu Shuizhou leaned his head on Jiang Jingyuan's shoulder, opened his eyes wide, and looked at him ignorantly.
Jiang Jingyuan smiled lowly, and leaned into his ear, "Of course I love more."
"Hey, but I only have love for you, what should I do if I don't have hatred." Xu Shuizhou held back a smile, and lowered his head as if he was very entangled.
Jiang Jingyuan rubbed Xu Shuizhou's head, and said bitterly, "I hate why you don't cherish yourself. Look at you, you haven't grown taller this month."
Xu Shuizhou still only reached his shoulders. He was still growing his body at this age. It had been more than half a year and he hadn't grown at all. Jiang Jingyuan was anxious.
"Ah? Grow taller?" Xu Shuizhou was completely stunned. Is this what A Yuan has been struggling with all this time?
Xu Shuizhou tilted his head and thought for a while, it seems that A Yuan always puts a lot of meat on him when he eats, just to make him grow taller?
"Puff, hahahahahaha." Xu Shuizhou couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
"Ayuan...Ayuan, do you think that I don't grow up because I don't eat well?" Xu Shuizhou clutched his stomach, as if someone had tapped his laughing acupoint.
Difficult...isn't it?
Jiang Jingyuan looked at Xu Shuizhou blankly.
"No, brother's body is different from that of women and men. Even if he grows up at the age of 16, the cysts in his body can give birth to life, so he won't grow taller." Xu Shuizhou stood on tiptoe and learned to touch Touch Jiang Jingyuan's head.
His A Yuan is so cute, it turns out that this is what he has been struggling with.
Jiang Jingyuan touched his nose in embarrassment, he really didn't know about it.
"Don't be angry, I will never laugh at you." Xu Shuizhou blushed and said solemnly.
Jiang Jingyuan said stubbornly, "No, I was afraid that you would be too skinny to feel fleshless."
"is it?"
Xu Shuizhou helped put Jiang Jingyuan's salute on the horse with a puzzled expression, not believing it at all.
"Yes." Jiang Jingyuan admitted with certainty.
"Hahahaha, I know, I didn't laugh at you hahaha."
Xu Shuizhou couldn't help laughing all the time, until his calves became weak, he leaned on the horse, and couldn't exert his strength.
Jiang Jingyuan stepped forward and kissed Xu Shuizhou's laughing lips, the laughter stopped abruptly, a soft wind blew by, lifting the hair of the two of them, and there was a sweet smell in the air.
"This way you won't laugh." After the kiss, Jiang Jingyuan rubbed the tip of Xu Shuizhou's nose with his own and said softly.
Xu Shuizhou, who just laughed out loud, felt his whole body go limp, and his body slid down uncontrollably.
Jiang Jingyuan caught it with sharp eyes and quick hands, hugged it up, and joked, "It's soft after just one kiss. Why didn't you faint when you saw those erotic pictures, huh?"
"I..." Xu Shuizhou bit his lips, and buried his head in Jiang Jingyuan's arms. It was so embarrassing, he was laughed at instead of making a joke.
"I, I laughed softly."
"Oh, that must be because my skills are not good enough, and I can't use it in this wilderness, why don't we go home first." Jiang Jingyuan looked at the cute girl in his arms, and couldn't help but want to tease him more he.
Xu Shuizhou didn't dare to move anymore, his breathing was a little disordered, and he forced himself to calm down, "Go home first, mother and the others have cooked a table of delicious food, and they are waiting for you."
"And I haven't seen pornographic pictures anymore, no, absolutely not!" Xu Shuizhou denied San Lian, he swore that he really didn't watch much, just watched a little bit, a little bit doesn't count, right?
Jiang Jingyuan carried Xu Shuizhou onto the horse, jumped onto the horse himself, put his arms around Xu Shuizhou's slender waist, and whispered in his ear, "I have something for you when I go back."
"What?" Xu Shuizhou was curious.
"You'll know when you get back." Jiang Jingyuan smiled mysteriously, stared at the horse's belly with his legs, and drove towards home.
When Chen Xiuxiu and He Yuzhu heard the sound of horseshoes, they knew that Jiang Jingyuan had returned home. After all, the people in the village who went to serve in corvee had returned home one after another. There was no reason why Jiang Jingyuan rode slower than them.
The two mothers knew that it must be the young couple, who were hiding and getting bored secretly.
"Mother, I'm back." Jiang Jingyuan said with a smile when he saw Chen Xiuxiu.
Chen Xiuxiu looked Jiang Jingyuan up and down, nodded with satisfaction, "Well, your body has strengthened a lot, it seems that you are doing well."
The subject changed, and he said, "It's hard for us, Zhou Zhou, to think all day long whether you have enough to eat, whether you are injured, whether you are tired, thinking that you can't eat, and your pointed chin has lost weight. Look so haggard."
"Mother, I don't have it." Xu Shuizhou hurriedly pulled Chen Xiuxiu's clothes, signaling her to stop talking.
Chen Xiuxiu pulled Xu Shuizhou's hand, and said bitterly, "You are too soft, so you should let men know that you are also working hard. Don't hide love in your heart, speak it out."
"Mother, you really understand." Jiang Jingyuan coughed lightly.
"That's right, you're still a little tender." Chen Xiuxiu looked proud.
"Eat, eat, it's already past noon." He Yuzhu arranged the dishes and started eating.
"Okay." Jiang Jingyuan sat down and looked at the dishes on the table, and couldn't hold back another chicken leg for Xu Shuizhou.
Xu Shuizhou glanced at the chicken in the bowl, blinked, and wanted to laugh again.
Jiang Jingyuan's expression remained the same, he put some on his bowl again, and said, "Who said when he came back, he will punish me for fattening you up."
"Cough cough cough." Seeing the two mothers looking at him, Xu Shuizhou coughed and glared at Jiang Jingyuan.
"Oh, maybe I have to feed it myself." Jiang Jingyuan laughed and put a piece of meat to Xu Shuizhou's mouth, "Ah~"
"I'll do it myself." Xu Shuizhou took it with chopsticks with a blushing face. It was really shameful, and he couldn't do it in front of the two mothers anyway.
Chen Xiuxiu and He Yuzhu ate without looking sideways, as if they didn't see the interaction between the two.
"By the way, is the journey in Datong going well?" Jiang Jingyuan asked when he saw Xu Shuizhou eating obediently, but he refused to raise his head and stopped teasing him.
"Well, it went well. I not only sold Brother Tan's books to major bookstores, but also bought a lot of books back. The business of the bookstore has improved a lot these days."
When Xu Shuizhou talked about business, his eyes always shone brightly, this is the way Jiang Jingyuan likes to see him,
"Oh, you don't know that our Zhouzhou is very powerful. When we talk about it, many people give him money." Chen Xiuxiu also followed Xu Shuizhou to Datong, and saw with his own eyes how Xu Shuizhou does business.
"It's still delaying this child. If he had discovered his talent earlier, there would be a golden mountain and silver mountain in the family." He was a little regretful as he spoke.
"Sister Xiuxiu, don't praise him, lest he be too bloated, I think it's good to be plain." Of course, He Yuzhu knows that Xu Shuizhou is a business material, inherited from his father, but at the same time she is a little scared.
Afraid that Xu Shuizhou would follow in his father's footsteps.
"Mother, don't praise it, it's all Brother Tan's writing is good, it has nothing to do with me." Xu Shuizhou blushed a little when he was praised, he couldn't have his mother's words so well.
"Very good." Jiang Jingyuan ate half a bowl of rice in a good mood.
The three people watching were a little stunned. Jiang Jingyuan's appetite could only eat half a bowl before, but now he can eat one and a half bowls.
"Maybe it's because of working for a month and the new rice at home has a good appetite." Jiang Jingyuan explained.
"Obviously it's old rice." Xu Shuizhou muttered in his heart as he took a mouthful of rice.
After eating, returning to the room, Xu Shuizhou quietly touched Jiang Jingyuan's side, and said softly, "You said you wanted to give me something."
Jiang Jingyuan lovingly took out a box from the baggage and handed it to Xu Shuizhou.
Xu Shuizhou looked surprised and was about to open it.
Jiang Jingyuan said, "I don't think it's appropriate to open it now, you should open it at night."
"If there's anything you don't want to wait until night, I'll just take a look, and then take a closer look at night." Once people's curiosity is aroused, they can't help thinking about it, and he can't wait for a moment.
After opening the box and taking a look, Xu Shuizhou turned red all over.
The author has something to say: the monologue of A Yuan's horse.
What mistake did I make, I want to eat dog food when my master gets married, I want to eat dog food when my master goes to town, and I still want to eat dog food when I walk around in the wilderness!
Please remember that I am a horse, eat grass, not dog food!Of course, if my master can find me a mare, I don't care about him.
Tomorrow Qixi Festival, I wish everyone a happy Qixi Festival, the update time has been changed to daytime hehehe, I overslept last night hehehe.
Wei Liangjun hurriedly wiped his face with his sleeve, and spit several times, his face full of bitterness.
Fang Xinli hurriedly got up from Wei Liangjun's body, blushed, smoothed his hair in a concealed manner, and stammered, "Well...we're just kidding."
Jiang Jingyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but nodded indifferently, "I see, do you want to grill fish together?"
"Cough, cough, okay." Fang Xinli let go of his nervous hand, and immediately agreed, and finally kicked Wei Liangjun who was lying on the ground, "Did you hear me, hurry up."
"Oh oh oh, I'll get up now." Wei Liangjun got up from the ground, his clothes were already dirty, and he ran back to change.
As night fell, the three of them lit a bonfire by the river and were grilling fish—but only Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli did it.
Jiang Jingyuan sat aside and played with the jade pendant in his hand.
"Obviously he was the one who asked us to come over to eat the grilled fish. Why did we do the grilling in the end, but he was the one who ate it?" Fang Xinli kept turning the fish on the grill while looking at Jiang Jingyuan muttering.
Wei Liangjun paid attention to the heat from time to time, and sprinkled seasoning on it when he saw that it was almost done. Hearing Fang Xinli's words, he muttered, "Who said that he will be an official disciple in the future, and you are just a registered disciple. Aren't registered disciples all trying to curry favor with the inner disciples?" .”
Fang Xinli nodded. It was a good thing to say, but he always felt that something was wrong.
Wei Liangjun saw that Fang Xinli was not entangled in the daytime affairs, and his heart sank to the ground. Sure enough, he was as easy to deceive as he was when he was a child.
"Hey, what are you playing with in your hand? I think you've been touching it for a long time." Wei Liangjun came to Jiang Jingyuan's side with a grilled fish and asked.

"Why didn't I find out, every time I jumped up in anger, chasing everyone to fight, but his physical strength couldn't keep up, the thunder was loud and the rain was little, hahaha."
Recalling what happened in the school, Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli both laughed heartily.
Jiang Jingyuan leaned against the tree trunk, a little envious, he had never experienced the joy of being in a school.

Wei Liangjun added a fire to the fire, and said with a smile, "It's the brother who brought you things that day, I've seen it on the boat before."
"Ah."
"Is it a concubine's room?"
"No, she's a regular wife, and you can marry a regular wife dignifiedly." Jiang Jingyuan shook his head, speaking sonorously and forcefully.

"If you don't try it, how will you know it won't work? There has never been a clear document in the Ming Dynasty that stipulates that candidates are not allowed to marry their elder brothers as their regular wives. All of this is just based on what others say."
It's not that Jiang Jingyuan is not clear about this matter, but so what, no matter whether his road ahead is full of floods or thorns, he just walks through the thorns and thorns all the way.
"I support you! If you need help in the future, just ask." As a brother, Fang Xinli admired Jiang Jingyuan immensely.
It is because he is a brother that he knows how unfair this world is to a brother.

How sad.
Wei Liangjun curled his lips and lowered his head to eat the grilled fish in his hands. Although he didn't say whether he supported or not, he still moved closer to Jiang Jingyuan in action.
Jiang Jingyuan had a smile on his brows, and he was like a spring breeze as always, "Don't worry, I will definitely speak up when I have difficulties. I have told you so much today, and it is not just a small talk."
? ? ? !
Wei Liangjun and Fang Xinli were dumbfounded, were they being fooled by Jiang Jingyuan again?
"You have too many eyes, even your friends are willing to plot." Wei Liangjun raised his eyelids, took out a handkerchief and wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth.
"If I'm not a friend, I don't plan on him. How can I help?" Jiang Jingyuan looked at Wei Liangjun and said.
"Did I say I wouldn't help?" Wei Liangjun rolled his eyes, but after eating a meal of the grilled fish he cooked himself, Jiang Jingyuan dragged him into the thief's boat. He asked someone to reason.
"And you." Jiang Jingyuan turned his gaze to Fang Xinli again.
"Can I say no?" Fang Xinli instinctively felt that Jiang Jingyuan's plot was not small, and there were many difficulties in this matter itself. If he fell into it, it would not be so easy to get out.
"I can't." Jiang Jingyuan stretched his legs and said casually, "If you don't help me, I'll tell you the identity of your brother. I think the anecdote that a brother was admitted to a scholar will definitely spread. From the north to the south."
"Jiang Jingyuan! You have such a vicious heart, how did you know that!" Fang Xin immediately stood up, broke the wooden fork in his hand, with a fierce look on his face.
"I heard it." Jiang Jingyuan leaned on the trunk and embraced his hands, with a calm expression on his face, "You two are making such a loud noise in the rain, can I not hear you?"
"Then you still pretend to be stupid." Fang Xinli was so angry that he kicked Wei Liangjun who was sitting on the ground, "It's all because of you."
Wei Liangjun was kicked to the ground, "..."
"Be safe and don't be impatient, as long as you are willing to help me, I promise not to say anything." Jiang Jingyuan raised his hand and stopped Fang Xinli who was on the verge of rage.
"Tell me, what exactly do you want us to do." He really sold himself and returned the money to Jiang Jingyuan!
"You don't need to do anything now, just take the imperial examination at ease." Jiang Jingyuan smiled.
"Imperial examination, I heard you right. As a brother of mine, I had to hide carefully even if I was admitted as a scholar. If you let me go to the exam again, if someone finds out, I will not be punished by the nine clans."
Fang Xinli patted his head and felt dizzy. After this, he was really on a thief ship. If he didn't go to the imperial examination, he would be exposed by Jiang Jingyuan. If he went to the imperial examination, he would be exposed by others.
Wei Liangjun said that there is no problem. He was planning to continue the imperial examination, but he also looked melancholy. You can’t turn it over, let alone take the Juren or Jinshi exam.”
"You two don't have to worry too much after joining Grand Master Gu's door." Jiang Jingyuan smiled, as if he was going farther and farther on the road of pulling the tiger's skin and pulling the banner.
"It's true to say so, but we are only registered disciples." Wei Liangjun still disagrees a little. Gu Renhuai has countless registered disciples. easy to say.
Jiang Jingyuan patted Wei Liangjun on the shoulder, "Isn't there still me here?"
"Okay, as long as you don't reveal my identity, I can pass the imperial examination, but Jiang Jingyuan, you have to grill fish for me today." Fang Xinli is a master who does not want to suffer at all. He worked hard for Jiang Jingyuan for a day today, tired He was so exhausted that he even sold her.
I feel a little uncomfortable psychologically, and I have to ask for it back.
"Are you sure?" Jiang Jing raised his eyebrows.
"Sure!"
"Okay." Jiang Jingyuan resigned himself to grilling fish for Fang Xinli, but the result was self-evident, it was so black that he couldn't eat it.
"Jiang Jingyuan, you did it on purpose!" Fang Xinli was furious.
"I'm not, I haven't, I won't." Jiang Jingyuan denied it three times.
----
After a busy month, the sky finally cleared up.
So everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This corvée was considered the easiest one. Everyone had wine and meat to eat, and they were not sick or exhausted.
Therefore, all the folks expressed their gratitude to Jiang Jingyuan and the three of them.
When he left, he even pulled them to thank him, so he almost knelt down and kowtowed.
"Jiang Jingyuan will be here forever." Fang Xinli's housekeeper came to pick him up, stepped into the carriage and waved to Jiang Jingyuan, expressing that he never wanted to see this person again.
It's embarrassing enough for him to be a good son and brother to be a servant for others, and it's strange that Jiang Jingyuan tricked him into wanting to see him.
"Farewell!" Wei Liangjun also clasped his fists at Jiang Jingyuan with lingering fear, and ran to chase Fang Xinli, "Hey, wait for me, we agreed to go back together."
"Go on your own."
……
Jiang Jingyuan smiled softly, looked at their backs going away, carried his own things on his back, and left the camp on foot.
Walking on the trail, Jiang Jingyuan smiled, and sure enough, he saw a young man in Tsing Yi standing on the road ahead, leading a horse, waiting for him.
Seeing his figure, the boy rushed over to hug him, and said softly, "I'll pick you up."
"You've lost weight after a month." Xu Shuizhou touched Jiang Jingyuan's body distressedly, and then pinched Jiang Jingyuan's cheek.
I don't know what kind of hardships A Yuan has suffered in this month. When I go back, I have to give A Yuan a good nourishment. I just made a lot of money recently.
Xu Shuizhou's small face was wrinkled into a bun, and he was trying to figure out how to make up for A Yuan with his fingers.
However, Jiang Jingyuan twitched the corners of his mouth. He has been busy every day for a month, and he has no time to sit down and rest. Not to mention his physical exercise, his appetite, which has always been weak, has improved a lot.
So he looks thinner, but his body is firmer.
On the contrary, his Ah Zhou was really thinner, and his waist became so full that he could hold it. It was obvious that the size was wrong in the hug just now.
"I'm not thin. Squeeze the flesh on my body. Is it a little hard? This is a sign of getting better." Jiang Jingyuan took Xu Shuizhou's hand and pinched it on his shoulder.
Xu Shuizhou pinched it twice, his eyes were bright, and he looked surprised, "Really, it's hard and bulging."
Jiang Jingyuan put on a stern face, "It's because you have lost a lot of weight, and you don't have any flesh on your body."
"Huh?" Xu Shuizhou raised his eyes cautiously, and saw Jiang Jingyuan holding his arm with a straight face, "I think you want to be thinner."
"Who told you to leave for a month, and it's all your fault." Xu Shuizhou observed Jiang Jingyuan's expression while talking, "Look, it's all your fault, I punish you to go home and feed me fat."
Jiang Jingyuan pinched Xu Shuizhou's face, the two dimples on his small face were bigger than his, "So it's still my fault."
"That's not true." Xu Shuizhou snickered, revealing a few white and tender teeth.
"You really make people love and hate."
Jiang Jingyuan couldn't laugh or cry, facing such a lovely person, he really couldn't get angry at all.
"Do you hate more, or love more?" Xu Shuizhou leaned his head on Jiang Jingyuan's shoulder, opened his eyes wide, and looked at him ignorantly.
Jiang Jingyuan smiled lowly, and leaned into his ear, "Of course I love more."
"Hey, but I only have love for you, what should I do if I don't have hatred." Xu Shuizhou held back a smile, and lowered his head as if he was very entangled.
Jiang Jingyuan rubbed Xu Shuizhou's head, and said bitterly, "I hate why you don't cherish yourself. Look at you, you haven't grown taller this month."
Xu Shuizhou still only reached his shoulders. He was still growing his body at this age. It had been more than half a year and he hadn't grown at all. Jiang Jingyuan was anxious.
"Ah? Grow taller?" Xu Shuizhou was completely stunned. Is this what A Yuan has been struggling with all this time?
Xu Shuizhou tilted his head and thought for a while, it seems that A Yuan always puts a lot of meat on him when he eats, just to make him grow taller?
"Puff, hahahahahaha." Xu Shuizhou couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.
"Ayuan...Ayuan, do you think that I don't grow up because I don't eat well?" Xu Shuizhou clutched his stomach, as if someone had tapped his laughing acupoint.
Difficult...isn't it?
Jiang Jingyuan looked at Xu Shuizhou blankly.
"No, brother's body is different from that of women and men. Even if he grows up at the age of 16, the cysts in his body can give birth to life, so he won't grow taller." Xu Shuizhou stood on tiptoe and learned to touch Touch Jiang Jingyuan's head.
His A Yuan is so cute, it turns out that this is what he has been struggling with.
Jiang Jingyuan touched his nose in embarrassment, he really didn't know about it.
"Don't be angry, I will never laugh at you." Xu Shuizhou blushed and said solemnly.
Jiang Jingyuan said stubbornly, "No, I was afraid that you would be too skinny to feel fleshless."
"is it?"
Xu Shuizhou helped put Jiang Jingyuan's salute on the horse with a puzzled expression, not believing it at all.
"Yes." Jiang Jingyuan admitted with certainty.
"Hahahaha, I know, I didn't laugh at you hahaha."
Xu Shuizhou couldn't help laughing all the time, until his calves became weak, he leaned on the horse, and couldn't exert his strength.
Jiang Jingyuan stepped forward and kissed Xu Shuizhou's laughing lips, the laughter stopped abruptly, a soft wind blew by, lifting the hair of the two of them, and there was a sweet smell in the air.
"This way you won't laugh." After the kiss, Jiang Jingyuan rubbed the tip of Xu Shuizhou's nose with his own and said softly.
Xu Shuizhou, who just laughed out loud, felt his whole body go limp, and his body slid down uncontrollably.
Jiang Jingyuan caught it with sharp eyes and quick hands, hugged it up, and joked, "It's soft after just one kiss. Why didn't you faint when you saw those erotic pictures, huh?"
"I..." Xu Shuizhou bit his lips, and buried his head in Jiang Jingyuan's arms. It was so embarrassing, he was laughed at instead of making a joke.
"I, I laughed softly."
"Oh, that must be because my skills are not good enough, and I can't use it in this wilderness, why don't we go home first." Jiang Jingyuan looked at the cute girl in his arms, and couldn't help but want to tease him more he.
Xu Shuizhou didn't dare to move anymore, his breathing was a little disordered, and he forced himself to calm down, "Go home first, mother and the others have cooked a table of delicious food, and they are waiting for you."
"And I haven't seen pornographic pictures anymore, no, absolutely not!" Xu Shuizhou denied San Lian, he swore that he really didn't watch much, just watched a little bit, a little bit doesn't count, right?
Jiang Jingyuan carried Xu Shuizhou onto the horse, jumped onto the horse himself, put his arms around Xu Shuizhou's slender waist, and whispered in his ear, "I have something for you when I go back."
"What?" Xu Shuizhou was curious.
"You'll know when you get back." Jiang Jingyuan smiled mysteriously, stared at the horse's belly with his legs, and drove towards home.
When Chen Xiuxiu and He Yuzhu heard the sound of horseshoes, they knew that Jiang Jingyuan had returned home. After all, the people in the village who went to serve in corvee had returned home one after another. There was no reason why Jiang Jingyuan rode slower than them.
The two mothers knew that it must be the young couple, who were hiding and getting bored secretly.
"Mother, I'm back." Jiang Jingyuan said with a smile when he saw Chen Xiuxiu.
Chen Xiuxiu looked Jiang Jingyuan up and down, nodded with satisfaction, "Well, your body has strengthened a lot, it seems that you are doing well."
The subject changed, and he said, "It's hard for us, Zhou Zhou, to think all day long whether you have enough to eat, whether you are injured, whether you are tired, thinking that you can't eat, and your pointed chin has lost weight. Look so haggard."
"Mother, I don't have it." Xu Shuizhou hurriedly pulled Chen Xiuxiu's clothes, signaling her to stop talking.
Chen Xiuxiu pulled Xu Shuizhou's hand, and said bitterly, "You are too soft, so you should let men know that you are also working hard. Don't hide love in your heart, speak it out."
"Mother, you really understand." Jiang Jingyuan coughed lightly.
"That's right, you're still a little tender." Chen Xiuxiu looked proud.
"Eat, eat, it's already past noon." He Yuzhu arranged the dishes and started eating.
"Okay." Jiang Jingyuan sat down and looked at the dishes on the table, and couldn't hold back another chicken leg for Xu Shuizhou.
Xu Shuizhou glanced at the chicken in the bowl, blinked, and wanted to laugh again.
Jiang Jingyuan's expression remained the same, he put some on his bowl again, and said, "Who said when he came back, he will punish me for fattening you up."
"Cough cough cough." Seeing the two mothers looking at him, Xu Shuizhou coughed and glared at Jiang Jingyuan.
"Oh, maybe I have to feed it myself." Jiang Jingyuan laughed and put a piece of meat to Xu Shuizhou's mouth, "Ah~"
"I'll do it myself." Xu Shuizhou took it with chopsticks with a blushing face. It was really shameful, and he couldn't do it in front of the two mothers anyway.
Chen Xiuxiu and He Yuzhu ate without looking sideways, as if they didn't see the interaction between the two.
"By the way, is the journey in Datong going well?" Jiang Jingyuan asked when he saw Xu Shuizhou eating obediently, but he refused to raise his head and stopped teasing him.
"Well, it went well. I not only sold Brother Tan's books to major bookstores, but also bought a lot of books back. The business of the bookstore has improved a lot these days."
When Xu Shuizhou talked about business, his eyes always shone brightly, this is the way Jiang Jingyuan likes to see him,
"Oh, you don't know that our Zhouzhou is very powerful. When we talk about it, many people give him money." Chen Xiuxiu also followed Xu Shuizhou to Datong, and saw with his own eyes how Xu Shuizhou does business.
"It's still delaying this child. If he had discovered his talent earlier, there would be a golden mountain and silver mountain in the family." He was a little regretful as he spoke.
"Sister Xiuxiu, don't praise him, lest he be too bloated, I think it's good to be plain." Of course, He Yuzhu knows that Xu Shuizhou is a business material, inherited from his father, but at the same time she is a little scared.
Afraid that Xu Shuizhou would follow in his father's footsteps.
"Mother, don't praise it, it's all Brother Tan's writing is good, it has nothing to do with me." Xu Shuizhou blushed a little when he was praised, he couldn't have his mother's words so well.
"Very good." Jiang Jingyuan ate half a bowl of rice in a good mood.
The three people watching were a little stunned. Jiang Jingyuan's appetite could only eat half a bowl before, but now he can eat one and a half bowls.
"Maybe it's because of working for a month and the new rice at home has a good appetite." Jiang Jingyuan explained.
"Obviously it's old rice." Xu Shuizhou muttered in his heart as he took a mouthful of rice.
After eating, returning to the room, Xu Shuizhou quietly touched Jiang Jingyuan's side, and said softly, "You said you wanted to give me something."
Jiang Jingyuan lovingly took out a box from the baggage and handed it to Xu Shuizhou.
Xu Shuizhou looked surprised and was about to open it.
Jiang Jingyuan said, "I don't think it's appropriate to open it now, you should open it at night."
"If there's anything you don't want to wait until night, I'll just take a look, and then take a closer look at night." Once people's curiosity is aroused, they can't help thinking about it, and he can't wait for a moment.
After opening the box and taking a look, Xu Shuizhou turned red all over.
The author has something to say: the monologue of A Yuan's horse.
What mistake did I make, I want to eat dog food when my master gets married, I want to eat dog food when my master goes to town, and I still want to eat dog food when I walk around in the wilderness!
Please remember that I am a horse, eat grass, not dog food!Of course, if my master can find me a mare, I don't care about him.
Tomorrow Qixi Festival, I wish everyone a happy Qixi Festival, the update time has been changed to daytime hehehe, I overslept last night hehehe.
