The leaves of leibu are divided into flying heron feathers, and the flowers of dill are scattered on fishing boats.
Yellow, orange, red persimmon and purple water chestnut are not the envy of thousands of households in the world.
This poem is written about the autumn colors in the south of the Yangtze River. The twenty-four solar terms originated from the Yellow River Basin, so they are more suitable for the seasonal changes in the north. For the south of the Yangtze River, it is a month slower. Although it is the end of September, Hangzhou is still green
It was full of atmosphere, with only the faint fragrance of osmanthus floating all over the city, and the wild geese flying south in the sky, making people feel that it was already late autumn.
It's a pity that Wang Xian has no time to experience the autumn scenery of the south of the Yangtze River. After qualifying for the provincial examination at the last moment, there are only seven days left before autumn. Not only does he have to prepare for the examination, but he also has a lot of mundane duties...
At this time, students taking the examination from all over the province also gathered in Hangzhou, including his brother-in-law Lin Rongxing. After the unjust case was vindicated, Lin Rongxing resumed his status as a student in Fuyang County and studied in Suzhou for another three years. Passing the scientific examination was no problem.
He originally didn't want to trouble Wang Xian and planned to find a hotel to stay, but how could Wang Xian forget his uncle? When Lin Rongxing got off the boat, he saw him smiling and waving to him on the dock.
"Brother Xian." Lin Rongxing said with a heartfelt smile on his calm face, "Why are you here?"
"Haha, how can I forget my elder brother's schedule?" Wang Xian smiled and welcomed him off the boat and said, "Is your mother-in-law still healthy?"
"Much better, much better." Lin Rongxing got off the boat and dressed up to meet his brother-in-law again. Behind him was his old family member Tian Qi, carrying the young master's luggage and bookcase, and hurriedly kowtowed to Wang Xian.
Wang Xian hugged Tian Qi affectionately, laughed and said, "Why did Uncle Qi get separated?"
"Uncle, things are different now." Tian Qi saw that the guards accompanying Wang Xian were all strong and calm, and they were not as good as ordinary officers. She couldn't help but said with some embarrassment: "The rules cannot be broken."
"Hahaha, Uncle Qi, I am still the same me, the Wang Xiaoer you carried to the Suzhou Saltworks." Wang Xian smiled and said, "You are still my Uncle Qi."
The guard then went to pick up Tian Qi's luggage and bookcase. Tian Qi felt hot and said hurriedly: "No need, no need."
"Just let them take it." Wang Xian smiled and said, "Uncle Seven will get in the car with us and talk."
While they were talking, a completely black carriage stopped beside a few people. The well-trained driver opened the door, put down the carriage stool, and asked the owner to get in.
This car looks ordinary from the outside, but once you get in, you realize that there is something special inside, with large and comfortable seats, luxuriously decorated car walls, thick and soft carpets, and precious wine and food utensils on the huanghuali wood table. Tian Qijian
He couldn't help but secretly marveled. My uncle is really prosperous now. At that time, he thought that the young lady was jumping into a trap by marrying him. Who would have thought that in just a few years, my uncle has become a big shot that he could not imagine. It seems that the young lady is still the best.
He was very discerning, but when he thought about it, if they could succeed, he would also have contributed, and he felt very proud.
Lin Rongxing was also surprised when he saw it. He was knowledgeable and knew that the prince's car was nothing more than this. From the correspondence with his sister, he vaguely knew that his brother-in-law was now working beside his grandson. At that time, he only thought that Wang Xian was just a companion.
And so on... There is no way, his impression of Wang Xian is still at the level of the Fuyang official back then. Now he is naturally shocked by the strong contrast, but he is very knowledgeable and has died once.
, and it can still be done calmly.
But when Lin Rongxing heard that Wang Xian was also going to participate in this Autumn Festival, he finally couldn't help showing a surprised expression and said: "Brother Xian is really a genius. He is brave in the military, but he didn't delay his studies to compete with you.
, I’m really ashamed of myself..."
"Haha..." Wang Xian blushed and said, "I am a blind cat who encountered a dead mouse - it was just good luck.
"My dear brother is too modest. Who doesn't know that the great master is strict in his studies. If my dear brother can get into his eyes, his academic training must be good." Lin Rongxing said with sincerity: "If my dear brother returns from the battlefield, Guibang High School will definitely be the best in the future.
A good story"
"Haha..." Wang Xianyu laughed a few times and said in his heart that it was a good story. The joke was almost the same. He quickly changed the topic and said: "I am also blinded when I am hit, but I am the elder brother. Now my knowledge and character are all my generation's."
If you are the best among them, you will surely be among the best."
"There is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world. My students in Zhejiang are hiding dragons and crouching tigers." Lin Rongxing smiled and said: "But Brother Yu asked himself, if he ranks before Sun Shan, there is still hope."
"Brother is too modest." The two of them were talking, the carriage stopped, the coachman opened the door, Wang Xian smiled and said: "Brother is home, let's get off the car."
Before getting off the car, Lin Rongxing suddenly said sarcastically: "Brother Xian, the gift prepared by Brother Yu is a bit thin. You and I will buy some more first." Although Wang Xian was furious, Lin Qing'er didn't help her brother because it was not because she was ruthless.
She is unrighteous, but she knows that her brother has the integrity of a scholar, or he is poor... As long as he is not at the end of his rope, he will not accept gifts from others. Therefore, Lin Rongxing is quite short of money. When he came to Hangzhou this time, he gave Wang Xian
My parents prepared eight kinds of gifts from Suzhou - nothing more than shoes and hats, Suzhou embroidery, crutches, cakes and the like. They are not expensive, but they are not disrespectful if they are used to honor the elders.
But seeing that Wang Xian was now prosperous, Lin Rongxing felt that with Aunt Wang's temper, such a small gift would definitely be embarrassed, so he wanted to increase the amount quickly.
"Haha." Wang Xian said with an understanding smile: "Don't worry, my mother is not in Hangzhou."
"Brother Yu, that's not what you meant..." Lin Rongxing said in embarrassment.
"I know, I know," Wang Xian smiled and jumped out of the driveway: "Anyway, don't go outside. You are here to take the exam. You will stay at my house these days. Just forget about everything and prepare for the exam."
"Here, Brother Yu already booked an inn half a year ago." Lin Rongxing said.
"It doesn't matter. Uncle Qi has just left. At this time of year, the store owner is eager to do it." Wang Xian refused to say anything and pulled Lin Rongxing through the door.
Just after settling in with his brother-in-law, someone came to visit him again. Wang Xingye originally wanted to thank the guests behind closed doors, but when he saw that the invitation was from a fellow villager, he couldn't refuse, so he had to ask Wang Xian to come out to meet him.
"Student pays homage to your Excellency..." Wang Xian took a look and found out that they were old acquaintances Li Yu and Yu Yifan. When he saw them bowing deeply to him, he smiled and hugged the two of them and said: "There is no need to be formal between us, we should treat each other as Taiwan."
Let’s get along.”
The two of them hurriedly said they didn't dare. The respectful words were obviously not fake. But after Wang Xian's repeated insistence, the two had no choice but to 'reluctantly' and cautiously called him Brother Zhongde.
Wang Xian invited them to sit in the living room, and after some pushing and shoving, the two of them reluctantly sat on the chair with half of their buttocks... Seeing their pretentiousness, Wang Xian couldn't help but think of how arrogant these scholars were in front of him back then.
, that sense of superiority that I just look down on you, once deeply hurt his fragile heart. If it were last year, even if he didn't take the opportunity to humiliate the two of them, he would still tease them and make a fuss.
But the superficiality and narrow-mindedness in his character have been sharpened by Yu Jingjing in Mobei and the desert. Now Wang Xian has a broader mind and a higher vision. The past grievances are just trivial matters in his eyes.
, you can naturally laugh it off, and at the same time focus on the future to reshape the relationship with the two of you.
Seeing Wang Xian's magnanimity, Li Yu and Li's heart dropped. Regardless of whether they wanted to or not, they were eager to make a complete reconciliation with Wang Xian and get closer to each other. This was not just because Fuyang was already Wang Xian's world.
What’s more, the elders in their family got the exact news that Wang Xian was the savior of His Highness Taisun.
Although what happened at Jiulongkou was very secretive, there were thousands of people who knew about it. Even though the emperor issued a silence order, it was inevitably leaked. The elders of the Li and Yu families were senior civil servants, so they naturally heard about it...
...Although they also know that His Highness the Crown Prince is in a very bad situation, allowing the younger generation to date Wang Xian, who is not yet on the stage, is definitely a cost-effective, beneficial and harmless long-term investment... Even if the Crown Prince does not survive it
, and it is impossible to implicate them. But once the prince comes out, they will make a lot of money
But about repairing their relationship with Wang Xian, the two of them were worried about one thing, and they didn't know where to start... Seeing the two of them hesitating to speak, Wang Xian took the initiative to smile and said: "Both brothers are my fellow countrymen, and
You are my guarantor, our relationship is extraordinary, what can’t you say directly?"
"Actually, we originally wanted to wait until the provincial examination was over before disturbing Brother Zhongde," Li Yu sighed, "but when I heard that Brother Rongxing was here, we couldn't help but come over now." In the early Ming Dynasty, writing was very important.
It is common, for example, that Yang Shiqi is called Yang Yu and his courtesy name is Shiqi, but no matter whether he is spoken or written, he never uses his name, only his character. This is also the case with Uncle Lin's brother-in-law.
"Yes, otherwise we would be uneasy and really wouldn't be able to take the exam." Yu Yifan sighed: "At the beginning, we were young and ignorant, and mistakenly believed in the bad people's words. Not only did we not do anything to help Brother Rongxing, but we said a lot of weird things, and even
Add salt to his wounds, and only when he is relieved will he realize that he was wrongly accused..."
"We wanted to apologize to him, but at first we felt shameless, and then we made up our minds to apologize, and he went to Suzhou again." Li Yu said with a face of shame: "In the past two years, we have always felt guilty.
But we never had the chance to go to Suzhou to meet him, but we knew that he would definitely come to attend the Qiu Wei Festival, so we asked around inns and hotels, and finally found out where he planned to stay... But when we visited yesterday, we found out that he had checked out.
, I’m staying here with you, sir.”
The two of them spoke in great detail, which made Wang Xian secretly laugh...Who are these two fooling? You are both scholars. You don't need a guide to go to Suzhou, and the distance between the two places is not too far. You really want to apologize, so why bother?
Wait until two years later? In fact, to put it bluntly, I am afraid that I will not like to see them because of the Lin family's affairs.
However, Wang Xian still invited Lin Rongxing to come out to meet them. After so many years, Lin Xiucai still became cold-hearted when mentioning these former classmates, and naturally had a bad look when he saw them. However, Wang Xian couldn't walk away because of Wang Xian's face.
, reluctantly sat down and said a few perfunctory words to them.
