Daming Junior Scholar

On such a happy day, almost all the people in the village stood at the entrance of the village and waited for He Jiaan's arrival. After waiting for a while, a sharp-eyed man finally saw a few carriages approaching in the distance, and immediately said excitedly: " Look, Mr. He is here."

As soon as they heard that He Jiaan was coming, the people in the village immediately became excited. You must know that the person who came was a magistrate. What does Mr. He look like? If you really talk about relatives, will you reward yourself with some money.

After a while, the carriage finally stopped at the entrance of the village, and then the curtain of the first carriage was lifted, and a young man jumped out of the carriage.

Well……?He is He Jiaan?

He Quan, the current patriarch of the He family, frowned and glanced at the young man, feeling a little confused. In his memory, He Jiaan should be a young man in his 20s. How could he look so young again? ?But thinking about it again, maybe it's because they are well maintained, so they still look like teenagers in their 20s.

Thinking of this, He Quan hurriedly took a few steps to meet him, and grabbed the young man's arm. The expression on the young man's face was obviously startled. Before he could speak, He Quan hugged him in his arms. With tears in his eyes, the old man said: "Son, you are back."

"Ah?" The young man was obviously not used to such an intimate gesture. He wanted to struggle a bit, but he was afraid of hurting the old man, so he hurriedly said, "Uncle..."

"What uncle, I'm your second grandfather." When He Quan heard the young man call himself uncle, the expression on his face suddenly became much uglier.

"I..." There was a trace of grievance on the boy's face, but he was a little at a loss when facing the angry old man, and said quickly: "Grandpa, you misunderstood, I am not your grandson."

"Jia'an, I know you're still complaining about what happened in the clan back then, but Second Grandpa can't help it. Who made us poor and couldn't support so many people."

Hearing this, the young man's face became even more aggrieved. Just as he was about to explain that he was not He Jia'an, someone behind him suddenly said loudly: "Tang Lin, come back first."

Tang Lin?

He Quan's face suddenly revealed a trace of embarrassment when he heard the young man's straightforward response, and then he noticed that another person got off the carriage at some point, and just by looking at the appearance of this person, he knew that he should It was He Jia'an, who had been messing around for a long time, and he had just admitted to the wrong person.

Now He Quan's old face was ashamed, and he was as red as the hijab on the bride's head. After standing awkwardly for a while, He Jia'an came over first, cupped his hands slightly and said, "He Jia'an met the second grandpa."

"Hehe, no courtesy, no courtesy." He Quan stretched out his hand in embarrassment and helped He Jia'an up.

At this time, everyone realized that the patriarch had just admitted the wrong person, and the one standing in front of everyone is the real Master He Jiaan He.

Thinking of He Jiaan's current identity, the noisy scene just now became much quieter. The children looked at He Jiaan with unusual admiration, imagining that they would be as majestic as him in the future. back here.

This is also the first time that He Jiaan has seen these relatives of his own. It is similar to what he imagined. The He family is not a family with a strong family background, and it seems that it is just barely getting by. Quan wanted to take He Jiaan into Zhuangzi to have a rest.

He Jiaan smiled and waved his hands and said, "Second Grandpa doesn't need to be so troublesome. Jia An just came back this time to worship his parents. It's not too late to rest when he comes back. Can you trouble Second Grandpa to send someone to take me to my parents' house?" Worship at the grave?"

He Quan, who was rejected by He Jiaan, showed a hint of disappointment on his face, but after thinking about what He Jiaan said, he nodded and said, "Jiaqing, take your eleventh brother to the ancestral grave."

A fifteen or six-year-old boy walked out of the crowd, nodded, waved at He Jiaan and said, "Brother Eleven, come with me."

Chapter 1087 categorically refused

The ancestral grave was still some distance away from the village, so the carriage would definitely not be able to get on, so the girls got off the carriage and walked up the mountain without any pretentiousness. The appearance of the girls really surprised these people in the village. The gaze that looked at He Jiaan became even hotter.

At first, everyone thought that He Jia'an relied on the influence of the Chen family to get the position of magistrate, but just looking at the women he brought, everyone knew that everyone must have guessed wrong. After all, which son-in-law would marry such a There are many concubines, so to speak, He Jiaan's own ability is strong enough.

It's just that He Jia'an, who has already gone up the mountain, doesn't know that his image has been improved in everyone's eyes. He enjoyed the scenery on the mountain while going up the mountain, but He Jiaqing, who led the way, seemed a little silent, keeping his head down all the way. He didn't mean to talk to He Jiaan either.

When the group came to the halfway up the mountain in silence, He Jiaqing pointed to the front and said, "Brother Eleven, the ancestral grave is just ahead."

He Jiaan looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, a cemetery appeared in front of him, and he couldn't see anything from a distance. When he got closer, he noticed that the cemetery looked very clean. There are no weeds, and it can be seen that this should be the reason for frequent cleaning.

In He Jiaan's memory, there is indeed no impression of these two elders, so when He Jiaqing brought him to his parents' grave, he finally felt a little sadness, but this sadness was not because of the two people who were buried in the ground. The old man, but because he thought of his parents in the previous life, he passed away unexpectedly and failed to leave any rich property to his parents. I don't know if they lived well in that era.

When thinking of this in his mind, tears flowed uncontrollably. This may be the first time that He Jiaan expressed his true feelings in front of outsiders, but it was out of control, and he knelt on the ground and cried loudly stand up.

There was no surprise on the faces of the crowd. After all, this is the tomb of He Jiaan's parents, and it was appropriate to cry and pay respects. It was not until He Jiaan's crying became quieter that Su Hongxiu walked over and slowly helped He Jiaan. Get up, and said softly: "My condolences, my father-in-law, my mother-in-law Jiuquanxia will be happy to know your current official position."

He Jiaan wiped away his tears, nodded slowly, took the paper money and other things and burned them, then led the girls to kowtow a few times, and then led everyone down the mountain.

When things like worshiping sacrifices come back, the mood is usually not very good. He Jiaan walked slowly in the line, and when his mind was empty and didn't know what to think, He Jiaqing in front of him suddenly turned his head and said: " Brother Eleven, can you take me to Paju too?"

Uh……?

He Jia'an immediately raised his head, looked at He Jiaqing in puzzlement and asked curiously: "Brother Nineteen, why do you have such an idea?"

This sentence must have been held back in He Jiaqing's heart for a long time. Seeing that the village is right in front of him, there will be no chance if he doesn't say anything, so he boldly said it, but after he finished speaking, he regretted it a little. I slowly lowered my head again, hesitated, and said a little shyly: "I want to study, but my parents don't want to, saying that studying has no future and is a waste of money. It's better to be honest and honest." The family farm is good."

In fact, from He Jiaan's point of view, it's not surprising that He Jiaqing's parents have such thoughts. After all, in this era, there are indeed a small number of people who can become officials by studying. Many of them not only waste their money, but also waste their good time. .

However, if his younger brother really has such an idea, he can support it. He Jiaan asked casually, "Has the nineteenth brother ever studied before?"

"I have read it. I have read some of the Four Books and Five Classics, but most of them only read half of it."

"Oh? Then come and listen to me."

The group had already stopped, and He Jiaqing didn't have stage fright, he recited some of the textbooks he had learned aloud, and He Jiaan quizzed him from time to time, but he answered well.

As a result, He Jiaan showed a embarrassed expression on his face. It stands to reason that he did not intend to have anything to do with the He clan from the bottom of his heart, but in this era dominated by clans, he would inevitably be trapped by the He clan. The entanglement, what worries me is not He Jiaqing, but after I really want to take He Jiaqing away, will other people come out to follow me?

Wouldn't it be very troublesome for me to go back and forth like this?

At this moment, He Jiaqing had already seen a clue from the expression on He Jiaan's face, the hope on his face gradually disappeared, and he smiled reluctantly and said: "Brother Eleven, don't be embarrassed, I'm just talking, how about Forget it, I can help my parents at home."

Hearing He Jiaqing's sensible words, He Jia'an suddenly felt a burning sensation on his face, smiled and said: "Brother Nineteen misunderstood, it's not that I don't want to take you away, I'm just thinking about how to talk to your parents .”

"Really? Brother Eleven can really take me away?" He Jiaqing's eyes lit up immediately when he thought that he could leave this barren land to study in a big city, and he couldn't wait to say: "Brother Eleven, you Don't worry, as long as you speak, my parents will definitely not object."

Sure enough, after the group went down the mountain, in the He family's ancestral hall, He Jia'an just proposed this idea to He Jiaqing's parents, and got the consent of the two people. In He Jia'an's view, the two people's actions were not for themselves. The son's future is so good, but simply let him go out to live, after all, isn't there that saying, half a child eats me to death, and now He Jiaqing is able to eat, it's better to let him go out and get rich For a few years, even if nothing is achieved, they will not be able to support the family when they come back. If things get better, He Jia'an will also arrange his marriage, and he will have picked a big bargain.

Seeing that He Jiaan was going to take He Jiaqing away, the other half-children immediately became jealous, and before He Quan could speak, they rushed forward, pushed their son into He Jiaan's arms forcefully, and turned aside. Said: "Eleventh nephew, take my baby with you."

He Jiaan took a step back in preparation, his originally gentle eyes suddenly turned sharp, aggressive eyes stared at these people, and his voice suddenly became cold: "I'm only going back to my hometown this time to worship the ancestors. Yu took the nineteenth brother because he just couldn't bear to have his talent buried. Since you all want me to take them out of here, then I have to test them. As long as they can pass my exam, it doesn't matter if you bring a few more .”

As soon as they heard about the exam, the expressions on everyone's faces immediately froze. They turned to look at the teenagers around them. They were usually mischievous and mischievous, but they didn't know enough big characters to fill a basket. How could they pass He Jiaan's exam.

Everyone hesitated for a moment, knowing in their hearts that this matter might be a scandal, and they didn't dare to play any temper with He Jia'an, so they could only show a sad smile on their faces, and then they stopped mentioning this matter.

After resting in Qingjiangpu for another two days, the big ship set sail again and headed for Suzhou not far away.

Chapter 1088 Prefect Roast Duck

Chapter 1088 Prefect Roast Duck

Transiting in Suzhou, He Jia'an just planned to meet Tang Qing's wife, Tang Ning and Tang Yu's old mother, Tang Wang, so he didn't specifically ask someone to inform the prefect of Suzhou, and since Wu Zhiyang resigned, he didn't know Who is the current prefect of Suzhou, so I only planned to pass by quietly after giving a gift after meeting Tang Wang and Tang Yu.

But even He Jia'an himself didn't expect that from a distance from the boat, the pier looked very lively, probably hundreds of people gathered here, beating gongs and drums so lively.

He Jiaan knew something was wrong when he saw it, and pointed to the pier and said: "It seems that we came here today by accident, it is obvious that someone is picking up the bride, why don't we make way and change to another pier?"

For the city of Suzhou, Gong Yue is the most familiar. He has lived in this city since he was a child. Since he went to Beijing, he thought that he would never come back here again. Who would have thought that fate would have a big fight with him? As a joke, the godfather's dream failed, and he did not enter the deep palace, but returned to this land again.

Hearing He Jiaan's words, Gong Yue looked at the pier and said worriedly: "If you don't stop here, you will have to walk a long way before you can stop, and then you will be farther away from the villa."

"So that's how it is." He Jia'an was also a little entangled. Looking at these people on the pier, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. When is it not easy to pick up the marriage, he dared to do it at this time. But then he thought, as long as he got off the boat faster, he should Let's not get in the way.

After making up his mind, the big boat approached the pier of Suzhou Mansion, and when it was about to reach the pier, Yue Gong suddenly pointed at the crowd with sharp eyes and said, "Master, look there, is it Miss Yu'er? "
