Chapter 158 Qiu Hong has news

The county seat of Qianshan County is located in Hekou Town, with a population of tens of thousands. It is much smaller than Shangrao County. The perimeter of the city wall is only about four miles, and its thickness and height are naturally not as good as Shangrao County.

Since the Xinjiang River and the Qianshan River meet here, the water transportation in Hekou Town is very convenient. The birthplace of Naihe black tea, the Maocha from a radius of hundreds of miles will be transported here first, processed into Hekou black tea and distributed throughout Fujian and Zhejiang.

Because of this, the tea business in Hekou Town is quite prosperous. Together with Jingdezhen, Futian Town and Wucheng Town, it is known as the four major ancient towns in Jiangxi. It is a prosperous and prosperous place.

The Fei family is a wealthy family in Hekou Town, and it is also a well-known scholarly family. However, the Fei family's old house is not in Hekou Town, but in Chaijiabu, a few miles away from the city.

The manor occupies the entire hilltop.

Since the second half of last year, the Fei family has been continuously harassed by thieves headed by Wu Sanba. Not only was the manor destroyed, ancestral graves were excavated, and even Fei Dian, the eldest son of the Fei family, died at the hands of the thieves. The Fei family was out of safety.

After thinking about it, he temporarily dismissed most of his servants, and then moved his family to Shangrao County to avoid disaster.

Fortunately, in May of this year, Sun Sui, the governor of Jiangxi, wiped out the Qianshan bandits, and the Fei family was able to move back to their old house and recall their dismissed servants. At this time, the Fei family manor had been renovated and somewhat restored.

Lively scenes of the past.

It was the golden autumn season, and in the backyard of the Fei family's house (Fei Dian), the grape trellises were filled with ripe grapes.

At this moment, a little maid wearing a double bun was sitting on the swing under the grape trellis, swinging her feet comfortably while stuffing sweet grapes into her mouth.

"Enter the painting!" A soft voice came from the room.

"Ah... oh oh oh!" the little girl agreed, but accidentally got stuck in her throat by the grapes in her mouth. She immediately made a sound like a rooster crowing and choked with tears.

A beautiful face that could be either angry or happy poked out of the window. Her bright eyes were as clear as a stream of autumn water, and her brows were as dark as the distant mountains, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

"Glutty girl, did you choke on the grapes you ate?" Fei Ruyi said in an angry and funny tone.

At this moment, he finally swallowed the grape stuck in his throat and waved his hands with tears in his eyes: "Girl, I'm fine...it's fine!"

As soon as he entered the painting, he stroked his chest, walked into the house, lifted the bead curtain and entered Fei Ruyi's boudoir.

Fei Ruyi was wearing a light green dress and was slim and slim. She stood behind the desk with a writing brush in her hand. A piece of rice paper was spread out on the desk.

Without Fei Ruyi's instructions, he went up to the inkstone and put water into the inkstone to grind the ink.

At this time, half of the poems had already been written on the rice paper, and it was surprisingly the "Linjiang Immortal" that Xu Jin recited at the Tengwang Pavilion in Nanchang. After more than half a month, Xu Jin's soul-stirring nostalgic poems had already been printed.

The news spread among the literary circles in Qianshan County. As a scholarly family in Qianshan County, the Fei family were naturally among the first to learn about it.

"White-haired fishermen and woodcutters on the riverbank are used to looking at the autumn moon and the spring breeze. They happily meet each other over a pot of turbid wine. Many things in ancient and modern times are all talked about with laughter."

Fei Ruyi finished writing the second half of "Linjiang Immortal" and put it down. Looking at the whole majestic poem, she shook her head and sighed: "Xu Gongzi's poem is still so magnificent. My words are really difficult to control!"

Ru Hua covered his mouth and chuckled: "What's the big deal? As long as the young lady can control Mr. Xu's people."

Fei Ruyi's pretty face couldn't help but blush slightly, she rolled her eyes and said angrily: "Damn girl, you don't want to learn anything else, but you want to learn how to talk bad words like the fifth sister. Can't you get beaten?"

Ru Hua smiled and said: "Miss, the results of the college examination should have been released. Do you think Mr. Xu and the eldest young master will pass?"

Fei Ruyi said lightly: "With the talents of Mr. Xu and my eldest brother, if nothing unexpected happens, passing the college examination is inevitable. Just be afraid..."

Fei Ruyi did not say any more, and could not hide the worried look in his eyes. The Fei family was at odds with Prince Ning's Mansion, and Xu Jin had a direct conflict with Prince Ning in Shangrao County for himself, fearing that Prince Ning would retaliate in Nanchang City.

.

Naturally, Ru Hua understood that his young lady was worried about the safety of her sweetheart, so she changed the topic with a smile and said: "The college exam is over, will Mr. Xu and the young master and the others come back by the way?"

Fei Ruyi bit her lips lightly with her teeth and said with a hint of melancholy: "How could I know!"

It was said that Xu Jin had made an appointment with the Fei brothers to meet up in Qianshan County first, and then go to Nanchang to take the exam together. Fei Ruyi was full of expectations, but Xu Jin suddenly changed his itinerary and did not stop in Qianshan County at all.

Instead, he took Xiaowan and took a detour to Yugan County to visit his mother-in-law.

Although Xu Jin sent a sketch and portrait of himself before leaving Shangrao County, he never promised anything personally, so Fei Ruyi's girlish heart was worried about gains and losses.

Ru Hua pouted and said: "It's true, Mr. Xu, that the girl treated him like this, so I just drew a portrait of the lady, and there was no other expression."

Fei Ruyi couldn't help but darken her eyes, silently rolled up the rice paper, tied it with a thin string and put it away. She secretly stuck out her tongue as she entered the painting, secretly regretting what she said.

At this moment, a maid lifted up the bead curtain and walked in. She said with a proud look: "Madam, let me go to the front to meet our guests!"

Fei Ruyi couldn't help but frown slightly. Recently, squires and women from the county were always coming to visit, and her stepmother Zhao always called Fei Ruyi to visit the guests. At first, Fei Ruyi didn't know why, but later she gradually

I sensed something was wrong, so I resisted going to the front to see customers.

Ru Hua said with a sullen face: "Our girl is not feeling well today and doesn't want to go out to meet guests!"

"The lady who is here to visit today is the wife of the Fang family. She is the largest tea merchant in the county. Her family has a fortune of tens of millions. My wife asked the young lady to sit in front no matter what."

This maid is named Cuiyun. She is about 27 or 28 years old. She is of plain appearance. She is the personal maid of stepmother Zhao. She relies on Zhao's trust and usually does not pay much attention to Fei Ruyi.

Ru Hua sneered and said: "It's really ridiculous. It doesn't matter to my lady that our family is rich. If she's interested, she can marry her herself!"

Cuiyun's triangular eyes suddenly squinted, and he said sarcastically: "If you have the ability, go and tell the lady yourself. Believe it or not, she will smash your little hoof's mouth!"

When he entered the painting, he said angrily: "Bah, you think I don't dare. She is just a house filler for the master. She really thinks she is a serious master..."

"Enter the painting!" Fei Ruyi quickly stopped and said calmly: "Cuiyun, you go out first, tell mother I will be here soon!"

Although Fei Ruyi was extremely reluctant, she was weak-tempered and did not want to argue with her stepmother over this matter.

Cuiyun glanced at Ru Hua proudly and sneered: "Look, the master is more sensible than this girl like you. It's not that this slave is too talkative. The girl needs to discipline this girl Ru Hua. She has no rules!"

"Yes, there are no rules, it's time to discipline him!"

With a sound like a silver bell, a red cloud lifted the curtain and walked in. It was Fei Xiaoyu's little pepper, and then a girl with bright eyes and white teeth came in. It was Fei Jixiang, the fourth girl of the Fei family.

.

Cuiyun's complexion suddenly changed slightly, and she quickly lowered her head and said politely: "I have seen the fourth and fifth girls!"

Fei Xiaoyu raised her hand and gave her two big slaps on her ears. She raised her little face and cursed: "Bitch maid, who are you, how dare you teach your master a lesson?"

Fei Ruyi had a docile temperament, and Cuiyun, relying on Mrs. Zhao's favor, dared to take advantage of her, but in front of Fei Xiaoyu, a little pepper, she didn't even dare to fart, and she lowered her head and kept apologising.

Fei Xiaoyu slapped Cuiyun again and warned: "If I see you bullying the third sister again, watch your skin carefully and get out!"

Cuiyun covered her cheeks and ran out without saying a word!

He entered the painting to relieve his anger and said: "The fifth girl came too timely. The girl who just asked me to come to the front to meet the guests said she was the wife of the Fang family, a big tea merchant. I said she was crazy about money. The girl was still keeping her filial piety for the master.

, This is really unreasonable!”

Fei Xiaoyu sneered and said: "What a big tea merchant's wife, I kicked her out when she came in. I said Third Sister, you are too easy to bully. Next time that bitch dares to be so arrogant, you will slap her with a loud mouth."

What is she afraid of?"

Ru Hua pouted and said: "The fifth girl is pampered by her parents and protected by her two brothers. Naturally, it can be like this. Our girl is helpless. Not to mention anything else, the monthly expenses alone are so much."

People are in charge.”

Fei Xiaoyu said disapprovingly: "So what? Maybe she dares to deduct the expenses of the third sister? In the worst case, I will go back and tell my mother that the daily expenses of the third sister will be paid by us!"

Fei Jixiang said quickly: "Fifth sister must not cause trouble. Later, it is time for the one to vent his anger on Third Sister."

Fei Ruyi sighed secretly and changed the topic: "Why did the two sisters come over so early today to play?"

Fei Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Of course I'm here to announce the good news to Third Sister!"

Fei Ruyi was stunned for a moment, and Fei Jixiang smiled and said: "The servants in the government came back to report that the list of college examination results was posted at the county government office!"

Fei Ruyi's heart moved, and she quickly asked: "Has the results been released? Did his...eldest brother win?"

It is said that on the day when the college examination results are released, the Nanchang government office will make several copies and send them to the government offices of the subordinate states for posting. Yanshan County is not too far from Nanchang, so the college examination list has been sent today.

Fei Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Third sister, the eldest brother naturally won. Xu Jin also won the title of the hospital examination case. Should I congratulate you!"

Fei Ruyi's cheeks suddenly flew up, and she said with shame and joy: "What does it have to do with me if he takes the lead in the case!"

Fei Xiaoyu growled and said: "It turns out it's none of Third Sister's business. I wonder who asked my eldest brother to bring a sachet to Xu Jin before the exam. What else is written in it? Let me think about it first.

... Chao Chao Mu? Or Mu Mu Chao Chao?"
