Again, they cannot understand the realm of other scholars.
You see, Zhou Jinshi has become a representative of scholar's character. It makes it difficult for those who want to say Zhou Lan is a thief to slander him.
After all, people have said that this is their level as scholars, and they cannot deny that their level is low.
Of course, this also severely offended a group of scholars who relied on writing and composing poems to hang out in bookstores. It was destructive of people and money, which was very hateful.
When the shopkeeper came to ask for a letter, he naturally agreed to all these conditions. For them, it was enough to be profitable.
However, Zhou Lan was not accepted by every bookstore. He carefully copied a few familiar poems, checked them carefully, and sent them to the selected bookstore. That was the end of the matter.
The master said to the disciple, this is the easiest and risk-free way to become famous. Even your wife can imagine that it is a bit rogue and a bit rogue.
Zhou Lan pursed his lips and smiled, it was indeed true. Thinking of the money his wife spent on this, Zhou Lan felt that it was not enough even if he turned it over to his private treasury.
The teacher also affirmed the eldest disciple: "It's because of your hard work and hard work that you have such good calligraphy, so that she can be so opportunistic."
If you don't have any strong skills, you won't be able to get through the road.
As for the appointment of the sixth brother-in-law, the Xu family has its own way of planning for Mr. Xu Xiaolang. This is not something Zhou Lan can get involved in, for fear of doing bad things with his good intentions. Unless the sixth brother-in-law speaks out on his own.
Speaking of which, the brothers-in-law were envious of Fu Tanhua. Tanhua's talents were there, so there was no need to worry about it.
Mrs. Jiang San was very happy that her uncle was so trusted by her in-laws.
Mrs. Jiang Liu: "I am very willing to be with my third sister. My parents-in-law told me to buy a house after confirming where my husband will work."
Jiang Liuniang and her party even brought a lot of local products from Baoding Prefecture, all of which were gifts from the eldest aunt, the second aunt, and Zhou Lan's clan members.
Who says it's not the case, but just by hearing something like this, I know that the Sixth Sister Madam has a lot of connections. Not everyone is lucky enough to hear something like this.
The sixth sister's face turned red when she was told that. They had just gotten married, and there was no sign of the child yet. Moreover, the little lady was always shy when talking about the child's problems.
Jiang Changxi is a thick-skinned person: "It's very, very true. Don't worry, the third sister will fly with you. We will be the most virtuous female family members in Baoding Mansion."
I have to say that uncle Zhou Zhou also gave them as gifts, as did Zhou's grandfather and grandmother, but they didn't look as practical as the dried vegetables and dried meats sent by the tribe.
Li Langjun still did not bring his wife to Beijing this time.
Jiang Changxi was very thoughtful, and Zhou Lan had passed the imperial examination. He was not afraid that these mundane things would distract him from studying, so he sent Zhou Lan a separate copy of the list sent by the grandfather of the Zhou family.
Jiang Changxi: "Sixth sister, why are you so polite? When the official appointment documents of my brother-in-law come out, we still don't know where your sisters and I will go. We must not cherish this fate."
Of course, Mrs. Jiang, the old lady of the Jiang family, was well aware of the criticism she had about the couple.
Jiang Changxi and Zhou Lan lamented: "No wonder so many people study and hope to get ahead, but in just a few days, the gap is too big."
When he came here, he brought a lot of specialties. Jiang Changxi could see that after becoming a Jinshi master, Li Langjun's living standard had improved.
Speaking of which, the Xu family of Baoding Prefecture is not short of such money. The in-laws still believe in their daughter-in-law to make such an arrangement. This is just a matter of face.
Then he said shyly: "Mom said, let me learn more from the third sister, and I can learn from the third sister. It will be enough for me."
It took Jiang Changxi a long time before he interrupted: "Congratulations to the sixth sister, congratulations to the sixth sister."
At this time, Zhou Lan said a classic saying that is applicable to ancient and modern times: "So you have to work harder, do well in the exam, and worry less."
He glared at his daughter and said, "Don't lead your sixth sister astray."
Jiang Liu Niang's face turned red, her newlywed shyness was not over yet: "I'm causing trouble to Third Aunt and Third Sister."
Zhou Lan didn't dare to follow suit: "A disciple must be able to show off his skills in order not to lose his reputation as a master."
There happened to be a small courtyard next to the garden, where a newlywed couple lived. Mrs. Jiang San asked Liu Niang and his wife to move into the small courtyard temporarily.
In the past, when Li Langjun traveled, he would bring his own things simply, let alone traveling far away with specialties like this.
The teacher sneered, he had a reputation as a bullshit. This disciple's Mandarin was becoming more and more beautiful.
Jiang Liu Niang nodded in approval. After her eldest sister got married, she never saw her again, so the bond between sisters should be cherished.
Along the way, when he heard praise from his third brother-in-law, Xu Xiaolangjun was even happier than he was being praised. He was worthy of being his third brother-in-law.
Xu Xiaolangjun felt that what the third brother-in-law said was insightful, but unfortunately it was not a level that could be achieved with hard work. It required understanding. He was already content anyway, and this was his best prospect.
Mrs. Jiang San has read the letter from her eldest sister-in-law and the letter from her second sister-in-law, so she knows everything about Baoding Mansion.
I gossiped with my third brother-in-law: "I heard that Hanlin and Imperial College are all rushing to see Hualang come over." The sad feeling is also an admission that if you do well in the exam, you will have less troubles.
Xu Xiaolangjun came to the capital with his sixth sister. On the way, he bought a few copybooks of his brother-in-law. They told him to keep them for future Xiaolangjun to copy.
Mrs. Jiang San: "Nonsense, it's too late to be happy. You sisters are together to be your third sister's companion."
The young couple stayed at Zhou Lan's house without anyone seeing anyone else.
Mrs. Jiang San knew that the sixth uncle and his wife lived here before they bought a family property.
Li Langjun, who came back with Xu Xiaolangjun, only came to visit the next day.
I took my niece to the guest room and settled it happily, but it was difficult to arrange for Liu Niang and his wife to continue living in the outer courtyard. With Liu Niang here, the outer courtyard was inconvenient.
Mrs. Jiang San happily pulled Mrs. Liu Jiang Liu: "It's great that you are getting married. You must have had a hard time along the way." Then she asked a series of questions about her family and how was Baoding Mansion. Mrs. Jiang was extremely happy.
However, they and their mother-in-law have never been favored by their mother-in-law, and Mrs. Jiang San has become accustomed to it. She just thinks that she is stupid. Everyone on the left and right is disliked.
Let Zhou Lan know better, but don't let the Zhou family fool you. It's better to stay away from people like that.
Zhou Lan: "It is not unreasonable to change one's family once you are successful, but it is not easy for ordinary people to become a scholar."
Jiang Changxi: "But so many aristocratic families are not living a happy life."
Zhou Lan: "But the truth is still there. As long as the spirit persists, generations will always be waiting for it. Who doesn't want the family to prosper?"
I sighed: "Otherwise, why are so many children of officials and officials still studying hard and not falling behind?"
