Chapter 133: Lauder is joking around and plans to travel for a year
In the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Dai Yu just started writing a paragraph, and then she frowned and didn't know what to think. Her wrist was hanging in the air, unable to write.
Her pair of dark eyes flickered, and she glanced at the person next to her who was looking at the manuscript intently. In the end, curiosity took over and she asked.
"The expression for having a child or a daughter, is it really that accurate?"
"Ah?" Jia Lan raised his head and looked at Daiyu in confusion, his eyes full of confusion. He thought for a few times before he realized what he was doing, and burst into laughter.
"Haha! Aunt Lin is such a smart person, do you believe this?"
Daiyu's eyes widened: "Did you say so much in one breath yesterday that it was all nonsense?"
Jia Lan smiled and waved his hand: "That's not true. There is indeed such an ancient book, but think about it. During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, wars raged and the world was in turmoil. Even the royal cemetery would inevitably suffer. The book was obtained by future generations.
At that time, it was already a fragmentary copy, with no beginning or end, and it was eventually compiled into a table. As for whether it is accurate or not, it is a matter of opinion."
Daiyu's face turned gloomy, she stared at Jia Lan and said angrily: "Isn't that just nonsense!"
After speaking, he turned his head and looked angry.
But she is naturally beautiful, even if she puffs out her mouth when she is angry, she is still gorgeous.
"My aunt..." Jia Lan quickly stood up and coaxed, "You are a keen elf, haven't you seen that Aunt Feng and Second Master Lian are not getting along? If I hadn't made up such a story, this
In front of a room full of people, wouldn’t Aunt Feng be able to get off the stage?"
Seeing Daiyu's face getting wider, Jia Lan added: "This newly pregnant woman is most taboo with being violent and angry. Anger damages the liver, causing retrograde liver qi and causing blockage and stagnation in both sides. Depression of qi damages the spleen, causing loss of appetite.
Lack of energy, all these are extremely bad for the fetus. Besides, my saying that Aunt Feng is carrying a son is not completely unfounded."
Daiyu immediately turned her head when she heard this: "How do you say it?"
Jia Lan smiled mysteriously: "Don't tell me, you won't understand even if you tell me." There was a proud expression on his face.
This is really unreasonable! When Daiyu heard this, she stamped her feet, scolded with an angry look, "How could I not understand? Don't forget, I'm still your teacher!"
"Aunt Lin, of course you are my master, but Master Sage Impermanence, you may not understand what I learned from other places."
Daiyu's face was full of disbelief: "If you don't tell me, how do you know I don't know how to do it?"
"Okay, then let me ask you." Jia Lan put down the manuscript in his hand and looked at her with burning eyes: "Aunt Feng is just pregnant now. What should she pay attention to in the next month? One month later... two
What will happen after a few months?"
Jia Lan asked several obstetrics and gynecology questions at once, which frightened Daiyu. Before she could react, the snow geese and purple cuckoos around her were so embarrassed that they turned away and even walked away.
I drove a few steps.
Daiyu was dumbfounded. She was completely shocked by Jialan's question. Although there was nothing vulgar in it, how could any boy talk about these things in front of a girl who has not yet left the court?<
/p>
When she saw the two girls running away, Daiyu buried her face on the desk with a groan, not daring to say a word to Jia Lan again.
"Aunt, Aunt Lin..."
Daiyu felt as if her face was on fire, no matter how much Jialan called her, she ignored her.
Seeing Daiyu's appearance, Jia Lan couldn't help but feel some ripples in his heart. He raised his hand and touched Daiyu lightly.
This was his first attempt to get in touch with Daiyu's aura without a normal mind.
Daiyu's aura is different from others, like the starlight shining on the long river, quiet and bright.
But he was like a meteor streaking across the galaxy, leaving a long trace of light and slightly causing a circle of ripples on the long river.
The ripples were very shallow, but Daiyu seemed to feel something, and her whole body bounced up like an electric shock. She glared at Jia Lan coquettishly, her pretty face was filled with red clouds, white and rosy, cute and moving, Jia Lan was a little stunned.
.
Daiyu was feeling angry in her heart, but she couldn't help but smile when she saw Jialan's dull look, and her oriole-like laughter made her unable to look away for a long time.
Daiyu, who looked a little embarrassed, tilted her head and asked softly, "Do you have anything to tell me?"
Jia Lan came back to his senses and said, "There is something I really want to tell Aunt Lin. I may leave for a while."
Daiyu laughed after hearing this and said, "Didn't you already say that you would go on a trip? Go back to the south to worship your ancestors. You have already mentioned it before."
"No..." Jia Lan shook his head, "I'm afraid this time will be a little longer, more than a year."
"What?" Daiyu was obviously a little surprised. She straightened her body and said in a more serious tone: "You mean, you won't take part in next year's scientific examination?"
"Yes." Jia Lan nodded, "I plan to travel for a year and wait for Enke the year after tomorrow."
The next two years will be a special year for candidates taking the scientific examination. The fifteenth year of Qingfeng is the triennial imperial examination. The sixteenth year of Qingfeng the following year will coincide with the centenary of the Great Xia Dynasty expelling Beidi and making Shenjing the capital.
Therefore, an edict was issued early to specifically open Enke.
There are also folk rumors that this is because the court has purged too many officials who were imprisoned for corruption in recent years. For example, Sheng Hong, the two consecutive governors of Shuntian Prefecture, all ended up with their homes confiscated and exiled. Therefore, the court is in urgent need of new scholars to fill the gap.
There are also other rumors, each with its own version, but what is certain is that Enke’s appearance in the year after next is a certainty.
Jia Lan and Daiyu talked about it, saying that they had many shortcomings and felt that it would be better to settle down for a while just to take the exam reluctantly.
"It's just that I haven't been able to see Aunt Lin for more than a year. I am very disappointed. I must be the same for my aunt."
After hearing the first half of the sentence, Daiyu's pretty face turned red again. After hearing the whole sentence, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Jia Lan and said angrily: "Who will miss you! If you want to go, just go! What do you want me to do?"
”
Jia Lan pretended to have a painful expression, held his forehead and shouted: "Auntie doesn't care about me at all? I'm so sad..."
Daiyu lowered her eyes and sneered: "Go, go, go quickly, don't stay here to hinder me."
"Really?" Jia Lan came closer to ask, but she pushed her away.
After a while of commotion, Daiyu asked: "Have you ever reported this matter to Mr. Zheng?"
"Yet, you are the first person I told. I haven't even told my mother yet."
Daiyu pursed her lips when she heard this and thought for a while before saying: "You have thought about what to say. This is a big deal. I guess few in the family will support you except that idiot."
Jialan nodded: "I already have an idea."
Daiyu looked at Jia Lan, and suddenly felt a sigh of relief in her heart.
Over the past year or so, she has witnessed Jialan’s growth with her own eyes.
Now he can have his own opinions and make such big decisions as postponing scientific examinations to travel.
A thought flashed through Daiyu's mind: he has really grown up.
She didn't know yet at this time, and it wasn't until a long time later that she truly understood what this feeling meant.
