A Timely Wife

Li Ruosong really didn't expect that he would pass the Jinshi examination, but at least he was also the one who passed the Jieyuan examination, so he quickly cleaned up his expression, and when Liu Cheng entered the room, Li Ruosong was already very calm.

"Eldest young master, great joy, you are a member of high school!" Liu Cheng shouted beamingly.

Cheng Dong was taken aback, Hui Yuan?Not Jinshi?Chengdong immediately turned his head to look at Li Ruosong's expression, Li Ruosong reacted quickly after a brief surprise, he took Chengdong's hand and said, "Fulang, let's go, let's go to receive the happy news."

Li Ruosong's expression made Liu Cheng at a loss. He had thought about many possible situations, such as Li Ruosong's ecstasy, or Li Ruosong's disbelief, but without Li Ruosong's current expression, Of course, happy but not excited, this kind of reaction was beyond Liu Cheng's expectation.

"Young Master, wait." Liu Cheng remembered something, and quickly called to the couple who were about to leave.

"What's the matter?" Li Ruosong turned around and asked.

Liu Cheng took out a cloth bag from his pocket and handed it to Li Ruosong, saying, "Young master, there are scattered coins in the bag, which should be used later."

Li Ruosong took the cloth bag and squeezed it, looked at Liu Cheng appreciatively, and said, "It's still Guanshi Liu who is thoughtful. If Guanshi Liu didn't remember this, there might be a joke later."

It was only a few steps from the main hall to the door of the small house. Chengdong was led by Li Ruosong and followed behind Li Ruosong step by step. The young people around him were just frustrated when he first came to this world. The sixth son, but now, has become the Huiyuan of the Great Chu Dynasty, Huiyuan, Chengdong smiled slightly. According to the modern saying, he has found a potential stock.

"Husband, what are you laughing at?" Li Ruosong, who had been observing Chengdong, saw his husband suddenly laughed, and asked curiously, "I didn't laugh at anything, I just thought I was very lucky and got married in a daze. , At first, I thought I would be angry for half my life, but I didn't expect to marry someone who is, um, promising, and maybe many people will snatch you from me in the future." After Cheng Dong finished speaking, he laughed first.

"You are really thinking about weird things. I am not gold, and you still rob me. Don't worry, I only belong to you, now and in the future." Li Ruosong said firmly.

Chengdong rubbed his nose, feeling a little embarrassed, "No matter how nice you say it, it's better to do it. Let me say yes first, you won the number one prize. As long as you have the idea of ​​taking a concubine, we will divorce, you know?"

Li Ruosong helplessly patted Chengdong's forehead, and said, "You should just die and get along with Li."

The two walked while talking, and soon reached the gate. Li Ruosong took a deep breath and said, "Open the door."

The gate opened, and there were a lot of people standing outside the gate. A servant in vermilion clothes stood first. Seeing Li Ruosong open the gate, he took a step forward and sang: "Congratulations to the great lord Li Ruosong, The head of the high school examination, Huiyuan, asked the elder to receive the good news. Li Ruosong smiled and said to the yamen servant: "This is Li Ruosong, thank you all for coming today to send the good news to me. The news came suddenly. There is no thin wine at home. Please take these silver taels to make two taels of water and drink. "

As a result, the cloth bag, the yamen servant weighed it lightly, and the Huiyuan was quite good, and there were about ten taels of silver in it, and he said immediately: "Congratulations to Mr. Li, the high school Huiyuan, and the younger ones have to inform the others. My lord, please leave first."

Li Ruosong cupped his hands and said, "I won't give it away."

When the yamen servant who announced the good news was gone, Li Ruosong asked Liu Cheng to move the two baskets of copper coins that he had prepared before and scattered them outside the door, while he dragged Cheng Dong back to the inner courtyard. Cheng Dong saw that Li Ruosong had finally left. Then he asked: "What's the matter? You seem to be very nervous. Is it difficult to dismiss the servants who came to announce the good news?"

"Well, it's not easy to dismiss. The king of Hades is better than a little devil, especially this kind of little devil. Look at the group of people who followed him just now. There are a group of people holding sticks. In fact, those are not government servants, but carpenters nearby. Well, if you don't give enough money, these carpenters will come in with sticks and beat you up. All the furnishings and furniture in the house will be broken for you, and then they will be repaired for you. I will charge you two taels of money, but you will also owe them favors. These days, money debts are easy to repay, but favor debts are difficult to repay. They will ask you for a letter or a painting in the future. Will you give it or not? Often it is to give Theirs, so that they can take your things and soon use your name to do their business, and at that time, you will become their signboard virtually.

But if the reward you give is relatively heavy, and the yamen servant who announces the good news is satisfied, he will not allow these carpenters to mess around in your house, because he knows that you not only have an empty name, but also have silver coins in your hand. , as long as you have silver taels, many things are easy to handle. If you only have one name, you will always leave the capital in the future, and you will have nothing to do with him if you have no shortage of silver taels. If he doesn't become a Beijing official in the future, he will be hard-pressed to get good results if he manages with silver taels. Even if he can keep his job, his salary will always be affected, and he may even be transferred to another position. This position There are also particularities, some places are Qingshui yamen, working hard for a year is better than working in certain positions for a month, here, the water is very deep. After Li Ruosong finished speaking, he gave Chengdong a meaningful look.

Chengdong shook his head again and again, "You don't need to tell me these things, I don't understand if you tell me, let me tell you clearly first, I am only responsible for doing things that I am interested in, such as research and development of weapons, I only know this, other things I don't care about anything."

Li Ruosong sighed, and said: "I'm afraid you can't help it. Soon you will receive invitations from other people. By then, we may not be able to stay in the same place. You, um, Yin Shizuo understand you well." How many?"

Chengdong tilted his head and thought for a while, then replied: "I don't understand at all, but we have to recite Tang poetry and Song poetry when we were young, so it's okay for emergencies. Anyway, you don't have these dynasties here, so I can do it." Borrow it."

"Okay, so I can rest assured. Also, if you are not sure whether to post those posts, you can bring them here and let me take a look for you. Some must be rejected, some must be attended, and some must be suppressed." Press, and some of them need to reply as soon as possible. I will tell you about these things slowly. In addition, there are many rules in other people’s homes. I will also teach you. You must be careful when eating or drinking. Some people are not That's a good match." Li Ruosong urged.

Chengdong said with a bitter face: "Can I not study, go, and deal with them? I always feel very tired. I am not good at doing these things at all. Why can't I live in peace and stability?"

Li Ruosong said to Chengdong with a solemn expression: "Because we are not strong enough, we have not yet reached a certain position, so that even if you scold others in public, you will not be criticized by others, and even if you reach that position, you must Pay attention to these rules. In the past, there were no rules in our family, because it was a family, and grandparents, parents, and parents did not value these vain etiquettes. However, this is not our home, but more like a battlefield. Fulang, you were also a soldier in your previous life, so you should Knowing that on the battlefield, no matter whether you are a recruit or a veteran, when you go to battle, it often depends on whether you have the ability to survive.

We are just getting started now. In fact, if we hadn’t left early, and our parents had blocked all the family affairs for us, you would have been exposed to these things when you were in Qingjiang Mansion. I don’t know, when I got to know Yuan, my family had already received hundreds of posts of various kinds, but at that time you were sitting and recuperating, and I was concentrating on preparing for the exam. Considering these things, my grandparents let Dad Mother came forward to solve it, but, Fu Lang, we will learn to face it by ourselves one day, especially when there is no one to rely on.

If we are already planning to retreat now, let alone in the future, I will only go up step by step, and you can only follow me up step by step. There will only be you in my backyard, My children will only come out of your belly, Fulang, if you can't do it, I can't move forward with peace of mind. We are one. Whether I can go higher and farther depends not only on me, It's more up to you. "

Chengdong took a deep breath and let it out slowly. He looked into Li Ruosong's eyes and said, "I will study hard. If nothing else, I will take these If you know how to do things, I will definitely not hold you back. Grandma, I don’t believe it. I can chew through such a difficult course. Why don’t I just pretend to be false with those people? It’s not difficult, let’s start today Assault learning, you teach me to learn."

Li Ruosong saw Cheng Dong holding his head high and his chest ready to go to the battlefield at any time, smiled and said: "It's not as scary as you think, let me tell you, no matter what, you should be humble in the face of their flattery." , in the face of their difficulties, you should be strong, don't be afraid of saying or doing wrong things, you have to believe that everything is in me, understand?"

Chengdong nodded, and replied: "Got it, don't worry, I'm not stupid, I just don't like to deal with people, it's not that I don't know how to deal with people, it's okay."

Li Ruosong raised his hand, hugged Chengdong tightly in his arms, and said with some distress: "I actually don't want you to do things you don't like, but we have already reached this point, and there is really no way to back down. My Zhengjun is also the only family, you can only work harder, just bear with it, one day I will let you live the life you want."

Chengdong put his arms around Li Ruosong's back, buried his face in Li Ruosong's chest, and replied softly: "Well, I believe you, I'm waiting for this day."
