Chapter 234
Jiang Linzhi had seen Jiang Sanye appearing at the feast a long time ago. He seemed to be a little surprised. With the help of Mo's family, Jiang Sanye moved his work from Huacheng to the Imperial City. Jiang Lin It's very clear, but Jiang Linzhi didn't take Jiang Sanye seriously. This is just an insignificant person, and he doesn't know that Jiang Linzhi is going to fight.
But what Jiang Linzhi didn't expect was that in the past one or two months, Jiang Sanye was able to receive an invitation from Zhu's family from a small official who was completely unranked in the imperial capital. Han, the most important thing is that Jiang Sanye is not sitting in an ordinary position for small officials. Jiang Linzhi lowered his eyes. He doesn't mind if the opponent is too strong. After all, if the opponent is too weak, then There's no point in fighting.
What's more, Jiang Linzhi didn't ignore Mo Jinqi's bulging stomach.
Pei Cheng was very surprised. He clearly remembered that the last time he saw Mo Jinqi, Mo Jinqi was still a little daughter-in-law who had no signs of pregnancy. Why did the other party's stomach bulge just like his own in the blink of an eye? After getting up, Pei Cheng leaned over and whispered in Jiang Linzhi's ear: "When did Mo Jinqi become pregnant? It seems that the pregnancy is not short."
Jiang Linzhi poured Pei Cheng a cup of warm water. There was nothing messy in it, just a simple cup of warm boiled water.Now that we are outside, many small habits are inconvenient to be exposed, so Jiang Linzhi did not add something to Pei Cheng like he did at home, but poured a glass of warm water and handed it to Pei Cheng Cheng.
Pei Cheng was not a picky person in the first place, he became picky now because Jiang Linzhi was used to him, Pei Cheng took the warm water and drank half of it with his head raised, he was indeed very thirsty.
I can't help it when I'm thirsty.
Father Zhu appeared, and after finishing his high-sounding speech, he started chatting with his best student, saying that they wanted to compete in poetry and prose together.
Jiang Sanye just came to the imperial city this year, and he doesn't have much reputation. Originally, he planned to be a low-key man today, but he didn't expect that someone would recognize Jiang Sanye. But a number one scholar who has been praised by the king for a long time, so someone deliberately led Jiang Sanye to Father Zhu, praised him a lot, and then flattered Father Zhu, "Since the former number one scholar has come , then no matter what, you have to recite poems with us, right, so that we can see the true ability of this number one scholar."
Jiang Sanye is now riding a tiger, he can hear that this person is really embarrassing himself on purpose.
When Jiang Sanye participated in the palace examination, although he was really appointed as the number one scholar by the king, every few years there will be a number one scholar in the palace examination. This is a normal thing. Although the current Jiang Sanye He returned to the imperial capital again, but he was not high-profile, so naturally he didn't think about making a big splash at other people's feasts.Besides, now they are celebrating Father Zhu's [-]th birthday in Zhu's family. It should be said that the people from Zhu's family should be the ones who show off the limelight, but they were deliberately stirred up by someone with a heart, and Jiang Sanye was pushed to the forefront.
Father Zhu couldn't help but restrain the smile that was still on his face. He glanced at Third Master Jiang who was not expressive. His tone was not very hot, but he didn't intend to trip him up. Father said indifferently: "Oh, since Zhuangyuan Lang is here, the old man really wants to see Zhuangyuan Lang's skills."
Jiang Sanye didn't want to give the Zhu family this face. Although he wanted to climb up, he didn't want to lose his dignity because of climbing up.What is the Zhu family? No matter how powerful the Zhu family is, it is just a family of merchants. How can they be compared with saints?
Zhu's father hadn't waited for Jiang Sanye for a long time, so he sneered, he couldn't figure out what Jiang Sanye meant, he knew that all the books of these scholars were read to pigs' brains.
Zhu Wan glanced at Third Master Jiang, and was about to smooth things over, but heard his father sitting on the side say, "Why, is it true that Zhuangyuan Lang doesn't want to sell this old man's face?"
Mo Jinqi looked at Third Master Jiang with extreme concern in her heart, wishing she could go up and help Third Master Jiang recite poems and do the right thing.It's just writing a poem to Zhu's father, what's so difficult about it.
What's more, they have finally climbed the big tree of the Zhu family, so it is possible that they are leaving before they have time to do anything.If this is the case, then how useless is this third master Jiang.
Jiang Sanye was neither humble nor overbearing, "Master Zhu, I am a scholar, and scholars who recite poems and write poems are just for hobby, this is a matter of elegance and vulgarity."
Father Zhu looked at Third Master Jiang with great interest, "Since you know this is an elegant vulgarity, then there are many scholars here, why do everyone accept that I recite poems in Zhu's house to oppose you, but you are not willing."
Jiang Sanye glanced at Zhu's father, knowing that this man was trying to make himself look bad on purpose, "It takes a certain amount of inspiration to write poems right. Besides, I've been busy dealing with the affairs of the yamen for so many years, and I rarely pay attention to these romantic affairs. Now I don’t know how to recite poems very much anymore, I’m afraid I’ll show embarrassment in front of everyone.”
After finishing speaking, I don't know the truth, Jiang Sanye glanced at Pei Cheng who was sitting opposite without any trace, but he just happened to see the scene where Jiang Linzhi and Pei Cheng were leaning close together.
Jiang Sanye looked gloomy, his lips twitched, but he still didn't say anything.
Zhu's father's face finally improved after Jiang Sanye's words, but being rejected by a small official in front of so many friends and guests. The reputation is not very good, so for a while, Father Zhu didn't like Jiang Sanye anyway.
Seeing this, Zhu Wan comforted his father perfunctorily, and then gave Jiang Sanye a secret look. After receiving a reply, Zhu Wan found a gap and walked out of the hall casually.
Not long after, Jiang Sanye put down the wine glass, and said to Mo Jinqi nonchalantly, "I'll go out for a while, you wait here for me."
Mo Jinqi was still thinking about how to talk to that noble lady later, but she didn't take it to heart when she heard the words, she waved her hand, and instructed - Third Master Xiajiang, and said, "When you come back later, find Remember to explain it to Master Zhu at this time, after all, this is about your future, don't take it to heart, I have children now, can you stop making me worry about it like this."
Jiang Sanye was disgusted by Mo Jinqi's anti-routine words, but he still cared about the child in Mo Jinqi's belly, so he didn't say anything else, nodded perfunctorily, turned around and left.
Mo Jinqi didn't care where Third Master Jiang went. She lowered her eyes and gently stroked her pregnant belly with her hands. She couldn't help looking at Pei Cheng with complicated and delayed eyes. Thousands of calculations did not count that Pei Cheng would appear here tonight, it was her mistake.
Pei Cheng noticed Mo Jinqi's eyes, raised his eyes, and looked over without fear, the eyes of the two intersected in mid-air.One is indifferent and the other is disgusting.
Jiang Linzhi frowned, and glanced at Mo Jinqi coldly. After all, the other party was a pregnant woman. No matter how dissatisfied Jiang Linzhi was, he couldn't really care about this with a little girl.
Unexpectedly, after Mo Jinqi noticed Jiang Linzhi looking at her coldly, she looked away in a panic.
She was very afraid of Jiang Linzhi.
Jiang Linzhi put his hand on Pei Cheng's and held it gently, indicating that he was still beside him, so that Pei Cheng didn't have to worry.Pei Cheng smiled gratefully at Jiang Linzhi, his heart warmed, and he stopped paying attention to insignificant people.
And when Pei Cheng was distracted and Jiang Linzhi was busy appeasing Pei Cheng's emotions, many people around saw Jiang Linzhi, the owner of the Promise Pavilion, and they began to move around.
The owner of the Wuwu Pavilion, although they may not take the initiative to find the Wuwu Pavilion at ordinary times, but being able to build a line with the Wuwu Pavilion is better than having a grudge with the Wuwu Pavilion.
Everyone began to secretly think about how to greet Jiang Linzhi later.
Father Zhu looked around, but he didn't see Zhu Wan. He frowned and asked the butler standing beside him, "Where did the young master go? There are so many guests here now, so I don't know how to come out to entertain them." Under the nose, the person disappeared in the next second, which made Father Zhu feel very dissatisfied.
The butler has been busy entertaining the guests, and then serving Zhu's father, so he has no extra energy to observe where Zhu Wan has gone.
The housekeeper hurriedly said: "I don't know where the young master has gone, I will go out and look for it."
Father Zhu was a little annoyed, "Knowing that there will be so many guests at home tonight, and running around, I really don't know what to do with him. What are you doing here, why don't you go out and find someone."
The butler got the order, and hurried out to find someone, holding up the hem of his clothes.
While running, he also called two or three servants to go out with him to look for it.
Zhu's father couldn't hide his irritability, but it happened that a business partner who often came to see him, so Zhu's father didn't care about other things, and hurried up to greet the guest.
After exchanging greetings with this guest, Father Zhu saw that Jiang Linzhi's position had not moved from the beginning to the end, but there were people around the position who had been coming to toast and greet him. His eyes flashed, and he took the initiative to walk over to greet Jiang Linzhi, "Jiang Linzhi Pavilion Master, long time no see."
Jiang Linzhi glanced at Father Zhu, and said with a half-smile, "I remember the last time I met Master Zhu, it was at the business meeting a few months ago."
Father Zhu nodded, and found a few topics to chat with Jiang Linzhi, and the chat was quite happy for a while.
On the other hand, Pei Cheng, who was sitting on the side, was ignored by Zhu's father, and he didn't know whether it was on purpose or not.
But no matter whether it was intentional or unintentional, Jiang Linzhi saw this scene and remembered it in his heart.
