It will take some time for Kou Ji to wash away the dust in the wing.
While he was washing, Wang Shu returned to the pavilion in the middle courtyard amid the rain.
When Kou Zhun saw Wang Shu leaving and coming back, he sat up and pretended to be casual and asked, "How is it?"
Wang Shu entered the pavilion, took off his boots, sat down cross-legged, and sighed: "There is still some cleverness, but newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, so they are overestimating their abilities."
Kou Zhun raised his eyebrows and glared: "You won't use Kou Li's matter to test him in school, will you?"
Wang Shu was stunned, nodded and said: "You don't care about these insidious methods anyway, why not give them to him to practice."
When Kou Zhun heard this, he immediately became anxious, "How can you leave this kind of matter to a child to deal with? You don't know how deep the water in Bianjing City is. How can he, a child, handle official affairs?"
"
Wang Shu looked at Kou Zhun with a surprised look on his face, "Do you care about him?"
Kou Zhun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly waved his sleeves and said in disgust: "I'm just worried that he will become more and more helpful. He has never been involved in officialdom and does not understand the affairs of officialdom at all."
Wang Shu said strangely: "My son-in-law did this, but you agreed...Besides, it's not like I didn't help him, I at least agreed to three conditions."
"What conditions?"
Wang Shu told Kou Zhun the three conditions proposed by Kou Ji in detail.
After Kou Zhun heard this, he did not focus on the three conditions proposed by Kou Ji. Instead, he frowned and said: "You mean, the only one who came with him when he entered the mansion this time was a relatively young one.
Servant?"
Wang Shu was also stunned when he heard this, and said deeply: "I didn't find any other followers."
When he met Kou Ji just now, he had been paying attention to Kou Ji, but he didn't pay much attention to the people around Kou Ji.
Now that Kou Zhun mentioned it, he remembered it.
Kou Zhun sat there without saying a word.
After a long while, he glared at Wang Shu, pointed to the empty tea bowl in front of him, and hummed: "Making tea..."
Wang Shu smiled and shook his head and began to help Kou Zhun make tea.
Wang Shu could probably guess a little bit of Kou Zhun's thoughts.
On the surface, Kou Zhun disliked Kou Ji, his grandson, but deep down he still cared about him.
Although Kou Ji is not Kou Zhun's direct grandson, he belongs to the same bloodline. His broken bones are still connected to his tendons.
Wang Shu fiddled with the stove to make the flames in the stove burn brighter. After boiling water, he continued to make tea for Kou Zhun.
A quarter of an hour later.
He handed a cup of fragrant tea to Kou Zhun.
At this time, Kou Zhong also appeared in the pavilion in the middle courtyard. He stood outside the pavilion and whispered: "Master, the young master is very well-behaved."
Hearing this, Kou Zhun nodded with satisfaction. When he saw Wang Shu looking towards him with half-smiling eyes, he hurriedly coughed and said with a straight face: "Ahem, arrange for two old ladies to serve him."
After a pause, Kou Zhun added, "Go to the treasury and take out the jade belt I used back then and give it to him. Then he will send someone to his hometown in Huazhou to ask why no one escorted him to Beijing.
.”
"Old slave knows..."
Front yard wing.
Kou Ji washed away the mud stained by the dust along the way, let out a sigh of relief, and stood up from the bathtub.
He wiped the water drops on his body with a dry towel.
He shouted towards the door.
Two elderly nuns opened the door and entered the side room carrying two plates holding clothes.
After one of them entered the door, he put down the plate, bowed and saluted: "Young Master, your clothes are ready..."
Kou Ji wanted it urgently, so it would definitely be too late to make it now.
The clothes sent by the nuns were all bought by the servants at the tailor shops on the street.
Wearing a milky white Sichuan brocade gown with moonlight white lining, a gold crown on the outside, a jade belt, and an ivory bone folding fan.
The jade belt does not look new, it is a bit old, but the nine jade rings inlaid on it are not ordinary things at first glance.
Seeing Kou Ji's eyes falling on the jade belt, Mammy explained with a smile: "This jade belt was personally awarded by the late emperor in the Chui Gong Hall when I was inscribing my name on the gold medal."
Kou Ji was stunned when he heard this, his brows raised, and a different look flashed in his eyes.
"Excuse me, you two, thank my grandfather for me."
Mammy said with a smile: "We are all old servants in the house, there is nothing to worry about. Just stand still and our sisters will help you change your clothes."
Under the service of two nuns.
Kou Ji put on his inner lining and brocade clothes, tied up his golden crown and wrapped his jade belt.
The ivory bone folding fan was held in Kou Ji's hand and patted it.
He quite looks like a young man from an aristocratic family!
The two nuns' eyes lit up when they looked at Kou Ji who was neatly dressed.
While they helped Kou Ji tidy up his clothes, they praised him with a smile: "The young master has such a good foundation. After putting on a suit of brocade clothes, he immediately turned into a handsome young man.
If you go around Bianjing City, I don’t know how many young ladies will fall for you."
Kou Ji looked at his face carefully on the bronze mirror in the room and nodded with satisfaction.
Although he is not as beautiful as Pan An, he is still handsome.
After packing up, Kou Ji said goodbye to the two nannies and walked out of the room, where he saw Erbao already waiting outside the door.
After Erbao washed up, he put on a servant's clothes and looked very energetic.
"Master..."
After seeing Kou Ji, Erbao hurried forward and called out.
Kou Ji nodded to him, then turned to Kou Zhong, who was coming slowly, and said, "Please take me to the ancestral hall to meet my father."
Kou Zhong bowed his waist and made a gesture of invitation.
Then he led Kou Ji to a building similar to a main hall.
Compared with the main hall, the ancestral hall is a little less wealthy and a little more quiet.
The door of the ancestral hall is ajar.
Kou Zhong walked to the door of the ancestral hall and stopped.
He is not qualified to enter the ancestral hall.
Although his surname is Kou, it is a given surname, not his real surname.
"Young Master, please..."
Kou Ji nodded, left Erbao behind, pushed open the door of the ancestral hall alone, and entered the ancestral hall.
The furnishings in the ancestral hall are very simple.
Apart from the historical ranking of Kou's ancestors visited in the middle, there is only one offering table and two rows of candles.
In the middle of the ancestral hall, there are three futons.
On the futon in the middle, kneeling was a middle-aged man in his thirties, wearing a blue gown.
The middle-aged man was kneeling there, upright and motionless.
Even though he heard the sound of the ancestral hall door opening, he didn't move.
Kou Ji's eyes fell on the middle-aged man, his expression a little complicated.
He is Kou Ji's cheap father Kou Li.
As a time traveler, Kou Ji took over the body of his predecessor and inherited his memories.
But in the memory of my predecessor, I had very little impression of this father.
For as long as his predecessor could remember, Kou Li had been studying abroad and rarely returned home.
Kou Ji didn't think Kou Li, an irresponsible father, would have much memory of his son, so he wasn't worried that Kou Li would see any difference in him.
Kou Ji stepped forward and knelt down on the futon beside Kou Li, shouting lightly.
