Little husband, he is born with a good life
Chapter 31
In the last autumn and July, when Zhou Jinnian came back to Fucheng again, Xie Ning immediately set up a shop and spent a lot of his savings all at once.
With the rest of the money, Xie Ning went to order a rectangular grilled fish plate, a small charcoal stove, tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, etc. for the shop.
Zhou Jinnian also gave him the money he had collected to harvest eggplants and peppers, and made steamed dried eggplants and chili sauce in a hurry, and sold them at street stalls.
The people in the city had never eaten the food made of vegetarian meat jerky, so Xie Ning made a small fortune, so he was able to catch up with the opening of the whole fish banquet at the end of July.
It is also a two-story restaurant structure, dine-in on the first floor, private rooms on the second floor, prosperous decoration, and fish lanterns hanging at the gate.
On the plaque, there are three large characters of "Quanyuyan", written by Zhou Jinian, and described by the shop that made the plaque. There are two chubby carps before and after the name, which are cute and lucky.
Every pillar in the restaurant is written with words, this is Xie Ning's request, to encourage the common people to read and read, to enjoy the hardships of reading, and to enjoy the blessings of knowledge.
The shopkeepers around the restaurant were invited to eat grilled fish, and the waiter first brought the charcoal stove to the table, and put the grilled fish on the rectangular grill pan. No one yelled outside, and the fragrance wafted for several streets.
Xie Ning and Daddy were busy. They marinated the fish for grilling in advance, and prepared various seasonings. The cook only needed to process it before serving it out.
There are also many rich people in Fucheng, so they come to try something new when they are around the taste.
"Serve the most delicious fish, what wine do you have?" A fat gentleman brought a few friends to sit down and order.
"The most fragrant is the spicy grilled fish, which is spicy and spicy, and the garlic grilled fish, which is salty and delicious." Xiaoer introduced.
"Then serve both of these, what wine do you have?" The master was very proud.
The shopkeeper Xie Ning only served tea, but he really didn't think about wine.
Fortunately, the little boy was clever, and immediately replied: "Then I'll go to the back kitchen to report the dishes to you, and serve you a fish feast earlier. Don't worry about the wine, and it will be served as soon as you call."
As soon as the old man heard that he could catch the fish earlier, he hurriedly let Xiaoer go, and took out a few copper coins, "But, you are smart, I reward you."
The little Er was very grateful, and took the copper money and hurried to find the shopkeeper Xie, "Shopkeeper, the nobleman wants wine, we are not prepared..."
The person who was invited by Xie Ning to eat grilled fish happened to be the shopkeeper of the wine cellar. After recruiting the waiter, he said: "Go to my shop to buy. The sweet ones include rice wine and rice wine, the spicy ones burn knives, and the expensive bamboo leaf green."
Xie Ning hurriedly ordered someone to fetch wine, and thanked the wine shopkeeper.
"It's right to eat your delicious food. From now on, if your family wants wine, you will come to buy it. For every one or two wines sold, I will give you three pennies as a thank you." The wine shopkeeper had a fish feast and talked about it. It's a business, and I feel beautiful in my heart.
Then this relationship is good, Xie Ning's catering business can still make money for drinking, it's a good thing.
It was because Xie Ning knew how to be a man, and he often handed over to the shopkeepers in the surrounding shops. The shopkeepers of other shops were not stingy and taught him a lot of principles of doing business and opening a shop.
Each grilled fish is served with lotus root slices, tofu, potato slices and bean sprouts, and a plate costs two hundred cash.It is twenty yuan more expensive than other roast ducks, but it has a lot of weight, and it is still steaming hot on the table, and it tastes good. Although the location is not good, the business is good.
The people in Fucheng also had a late rest, and there were no diners until [-]:[-] o'clock. By the time the restaurant was cleaned up, it was already Haishi.
There are not many fish in the fish pond built in the backyard of the restaurant, and it seems that sending them once a month is not enough.Zhou Zhoufeng immediately decided, "Tomorrow I will go back to town and discuss it with my fourth brother."
"Father and Daddy go back and rest quickly, and I'll go home after closing the market." Xie Ning was also very tired, but he had just opened the business, so he still needed to keep an eye on it.
Sending father and dad out of the restaurant, Zhou Jinnian returned to help Xie Ning settle the accounts, "One string is [-] Wen, starting tomorrow, the money for grilled fish and the money for wine will be opened separately, two hundred Wen for grilled fish is the whole money, okay Calculation. I will take care of the accounts for you every month, is there anything else you don’t understand?”
"I understand, ten strings is a guan, and a guan is a thousand. Take a thousand to a money shop and exchange it for silver ingots. You taught me." Xie Ning nodded his head to count money. He is still very smart. Ji Nian taught him remember.
He lowered his head, pursed his lips and counted the money earnestly, his cheeks bulged into a round arc, Zhou Jinnian gently pinched his bulging cheeks, "Smart."
Xie Ning's face was pinched, he looked up at Zhou Jinnian and smiled.
"Shopkeeper, the back kitchen and front hall are all cleaned up, would you like to take a look?"
Zhou Jinnian withdrew his hand, knowing that Ning Lang was tired all day, he responded and went upstairs to check.It’s better to take a look at the first opening, to find out the problem earlier and establish the rules earlier.
After he finished the inspection and asked a few questions, he dispersed the waiters and went back to the backyard to rest.
When he returned to the cabinet, Xie Ning had already counted the money and was waiting for him with a big money bag in his arms.
The two couples went home with a lantern, taking advantage of the moonlight, Zhou Jinnian handed the lantern to the little husband, took two steps forward and stood in front of Ning Lang and said, "Come up."
Xie Ning pursed his lips and smiled, he was used to being pampered, so he lay on his stomach without any pressure, holding the lantern forward with one hand for illumination.
"Tomorrow, I will hire a nursing home. My eldest brother and I have entered a government school. No one will protect you. I don't worry."
"Okay, I'll go back with Dad and the others at night." Xie Ning is also very sensible, he knows how to avoid suspicion.
There are some pedestrians along the way, but they can't see the road clearly in the dark, so they won't be noticed. Zhou Jinnian explained to his husband: "Hey, I'm not by your side. If you need anything, just tell dad. He is now Treat you like a relative, there is no need to embarrass.”
Speaking of this, Xie Ning felt bliss overflowing, Ji Nian spoiled him unprincipledly, so his father and father loved him very much.
"Yeah! I like Lone Year the most..." Fortunately, Xie Ning couldn't help expressing his admiration on his back.
Whatever he does, Zhou Ji Nian supports him, so once he achieves a little success, he becomes stronger and more confident.He is so lucky that he can continue to do what he loves after getting married to Zhou Jinnian.
Taught him to read and count, and didn't use the name of husband to restrain him at all. Thinking of this, he said shyly: "Even if I don't have children, I love my husband the most..."
Zhou Jinnian's legs were weak, he staggered a step, gritted his teeth, and hit the buttocks of the person on his back.
Xie Ning quickly covered his mouth with his other hand.
Zhou Jinnian was suffering in his heart, but he didn't open his mouth to explain. Instead of telling Ning Lang the truth and only increasing his guilt and pain, it's better to admit the disease of "no way" by himself.
After thinking about it, he asked again: "Don't you like children? Don't you feel sad?"
"It's not sad!" Xie Ning said with certainty, the lonely year made him live so recklessly, he only wished to lie on the lonely year's back forever.
Zhou Jinnian smiled, a little moved, and continued to tease Fu Lang with nice words, "It's been so hard to open a restaurant, do you also love it the most?"
"En!" Xie Ning nodded, and poked Zhou Jinnian's shoulder twice with his chin, "Before I got married, I really wanted to open a restaurant, but no one could support me."
It was Zhou Ji Nian who encouraged and supported him. Being able to live with a man who makes him live like himself, confident and at ease, how can it be hard?
"Lone Year~" Xie Ning said softly, "I like you so much."
"Huh?" Zhou Jinian agreed first, and was immediately softened by the young husband's confession, "Yeah."
Xie Ning got love and support from him, and he also saw the gradual strength and growth from Xie Ning. This kind of positive and joint struggle also inspired him.
In the previous life, he was the only son, and his family was eccentric. Although his father and father loved him, they had more than enough heart.He was under pressure to support his family when he was just an adult, and then he spent his whole life fighting alone in order to provide a better life for his parents.
In this life, he married Ning Lang at the beginning to repay his kindness, and planned to enter the official examination, step by step to a high position, so that the family can live a good life, and he never thought about himself at all.
Unexpectedly, after the two got married, he was attracted by Ning Lang's straightforwardness and strength. When his father was lying on the bed, Xie Ning was filial and kind. Love cannot extricate itself.
Next, it was time for him to protect Ning Lang.
……
Ten days later, Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao entered the government school, Xie Yao took a schoolboy with him, and Zhou Jinian was alone.
Judging from the area and architecture of the academy, it is obvious that the imperial court focused on cultivating scholars.
The academy is located halfway up a mountain on the outskirts of the city. It is a huge academy with a quiet and quiet environment.The white walls at the entrance, black plaques and black couplets on a white background are like a book of poetry.
There is a stele of predecessors' poems and essays inside, engraved with the general idea that learning requires undivided attention, perseverance, and continuous innovation.
The granary students only need to pay for their meals or rice noodles, and some meat or silver for their teachers during the holidays. This is not a bribe, but they hope that the annual exams will be treated fairly.
If you fail the exam every year, you will no longer be able to stay in the academy to study, and you will have to take a scientific exam three years later, the purpose is to pass the provincial exam.
Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao were assigned to live in Courtyard A. There are eight rooms in the courtyard, and each room accommodates eight people.Zhou Ji Nian didn't bring a bookboy with him, so there were seven people living in the house, and three bookboys were on the floor outside.
After tidying up, the four scholars became acquainted with each other, and Zhou Ji Nian began to study in Fucheng.
In addition to Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao, the other two scholars are Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi. Zhang Youwen has been in the academy for two years and is quite familiar with it.
After everyone made their beds, Zhang Youwen suggested: "Three classmates, let's go to Cuju."
"Okay!" Xie Yao was the first to agree to the proposal.
School has not yet started, and some scholars who are far away from the school are still on the way, and the unlucky ones will be the last to arrive, and they will live next to the toilet.
Zhang Youwen looked at Zhou Jinnian, who nodded slightly, and then looked at Li Shiyi, the most handsome and fair man in the house, always with a folding fan in front of his chest.
Zhang Youwen looked down on Li Shiyi, who was twitchy, and he was also a white-faced scholar, so before Li Shiyi could express his opinion, he made up his mind and said, "I agree? Then let's change our corsets, and after playing Cuju, I'll take you to dinner." .”
"Huh? Change...change clothes?" Li Shiyi finally spoke, his voice seemed to have not changed, and it was a little shrill.
After all, Zhou Jinian's mental age was slightly older than the others, so he could tell something was wrong immediately, and when he looked at Li Shiyi again, he could feel something was wrong.
Willow-leaf eyebrows, round almond eyes, slender stature, always covering her chest with a fan, always looking at people carefully, as if she is very guilty, she seems to be a literati "Mulan".
Zhou Jinnian thought for a while and then said: "How about another day, I'm a little tired after rushing all the way to the academy, Brother Wen, would you like to take us around the academy?"
Li Shiyi nodded frantically, "Okay, okay!"
Xie Yao often saw the Cuju movement in his poems. As a farmland scholar studying hard in the cold window, he really yearned for it, and couldn't help protesting: "After dinner, you can still digest it. When will you So weak?"
"Brother Ji Nian is so weak, it's you, the white-faced scholar!"
It was Li Shiyi who spoke, and he moved the fan up to cover his mouth, staring at Xie Yao dissatisfied with his big eyes.
Zhou Jinnian didn't expect that the little girl would start a fight with her mouth, and was going to save her brother-in-law.
But Xie Yao came to his senses first, "Drink? Then aren't you more white-faced scholar? You're as white as a little girl."
"You!" Li Shiyi felt guilty for a moment, blinked his big eyes and felt aggrieved, "I just don't want to play Cuju."
"..." The other people were stunned, and Zhou Jinian held back what he wanted to say for his brother-in-law.
Xie Yao didn't expect that when this young man opened his mouth...so pitiful, he was the one who was rude to him the moment he opened his mouth.
Zhang Youwen coughed, and said unnaturally: "You are a big man, can you speak well?"
"Eh? It's nothing, so let's not play cuju. Let's go for a walk and get familiar with the academy." Xie Yao's family has younger brothers and younger sisters, and this Li Shiyi's coquettish words just now made him love him.
Zhou Jinnian had almost confirmed Li Shiyi's gender. Seeing that his brother-in-law was helping to speak, he remained silent, thinking to avoid suspicion.
Afterwards, Li Shiyi liked to follow Xie Yao's ass very much, thinking that this person had a good temper and was a gentleman.She was pampered since she was a child, and her words were a little out of her head, but she was not malicious. Xie Yao always bickered with her, but he never got angry.
As for Zhou Jinian, if Zhang Youwen was there, he would stay behind and cover Li Shiyi quietly; if Zhang Youwen was not there, he would find a way to escape, leaving his brother-in-law and Li Shiyi alone.
At other times, Zhou Jinnian reads books and writes articles.
……
The profit from Quanyu Banquet made Xie Ning feel confident from the bottom of his heart. It is not for everyone who is an ignorant and unskilled brother in Dajing Village to be able to open a big restaurant in Fucheng.
In the twelfth lunar month, the government school was on vacation, Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao returned home, and brought Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi to eat grilled fish.
The reason was that Li Shiyi had heard that there was a whole fish feast on the West Street of Fucheng, and had always wanted to eat it. He kept talking to Xie Yao, who was close to him, and Xie Yao simply suggested to eat it together.
The weather was getting colder and colder, Xie Ning shrank his hands and was sorting out the books.
"Ning Lang? Where is it?"
Xie Ning: "Huh?" He raised his head to look at his father.
"Here, be careful." Lin Jin handed over a bag of fried chestnuts.
In autumn and winter, hot fried chestnuts are very popular on the street. Lin Jin went to the street to buy vegetables, and when she saw it, she bought a pack for Ning Lang.
At home, Ning Lang loves these small snacks. In the past, his son Ji Nian loved to buy them. Now that Ji Nian is away studying, he, his father, has developed this habit.
"Thank you dad." Xie Ning went to hold it in his hand, the warm palm was very comfortable.
The chestnuts are all in season and very fresh. The chestnuts inside the shell are bright and yellow, one bite at a time, the powder is glutinous, sweet and soft.
Lin Jin held the vegetable basket and said, "I'll eat in the store today, it's too cold, I won't go out for a walk, I'll suffer."
After he finished talking, he went to the back kitchen, and there was a helper to pick up the dishes and clean them immediately, so it didn't take him hard.
"Is your shopkeeper here?"
Xie Ning looked up, there was an elderly man at the entrance of Quanyuyan, the clothes he was wearing should be from a wealthy family.
"Yes, please, nobleman."
Xie Ning smiled and nodded in salute to people, they are also very particular about business and hospitality, as long as they are polite, too humble is even more offensive, and his husband is a scholar, his behavior will affect Zhou Ji Nian.
"The shopkeeper is well. My master's surname is Li. There is a happy event at home today. I am here to order two grilled fish. I would like to discuss with you. Can the grilled fish be sent to Li's residence?"
Li Mansion?At that time, only bureaucrats and aristocratic families were allowed to call themselves mansions. The housekeeper was kind and polite, and Li's mansion should be from a famous family.
Xie Ning nodded, "Of course, what flavor do you want? When will it be delivered to the house?"
"Spicy and garlic, one hour before dinner, I will marry you for the total amount."
There are fewer people going out on the street in winter, and the business of the whole fish banquet is a little less, but it does not affect the business by sending fish to two waiters.
"Two fish with four hundred coins, two errands, one person with five coins, a total of 410 coins." Xie Ning broke his fingers as usual, counting the money with the method Zhou Jinnian taught him.
Butler Li immediately took out the money and settled the bill after he understood it. It was just after lunch time, and he explained: "It's Li's Mansion in the Southwest, and there are two stone lions at the red gate."
"Shiwu and Shiliu come here." Xie Ning called the two waiters over, "I'll take two grilled fish to Li's Mansion on Southwest Street, Red Gate, there are two stone lions at the gate, remember?"
Butler Li recognized the two waiters, nodded at Xie Ning, and turned to go out, when he happened to meet a group of people who were entering the door.
"Little..." Butler Li recognized his young lady immediately.
"Master, I want to eat grilled fish!"
Li Shiyi responded quickly, frowned slightly, and stared at the housekeeper fiercely, a little cute.Immediately, a young man trotted over to greet the guests, "How many masters... are the shopkeepers?"
Xie Ning thought he was calling him, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the man in his arms who became colder and missed him more and more, "Ji Nian! Big brother!"
Butler Li kept watching his young lady go up to the second floor with a few scholars, and the young lady's attendant, Xiao Liu, turned his head and raised his eyebrows and winked at him from time to time.
"Alas..." Butler Li shook his head, and the whole fish banquet was served. The master took leave early and waited for the young lady to come home to eat grilled fish. Who knew that the young lady would not be able to stay, and the young lady had already eaten.
In the private room, Xie Ning ordered a small table to be set up outside, and served a grilled fish to the three little bookboys.
In the middle of the screen, there were two grilled fishes on the large camphor wood table. Although Xie Ning wanted to accompany her husband, it was inconvenient for him to be a businessman, so he turned around and wanted to go out of the screen.
But Zhou Jinnian grabbed Xie Ning, pulled him to sit on his right hand, and introduced to his classmates: "This is my husband, Lang Xie Ning."
Xie Ning opened his eyes wide, not knowing why, and then he heard that Zhou Jinnian was probably saying to him: "This is Zhang Youwen, this is Li Shiyi, they are all classmates of my elder brother and me."
Zhang Youwen is a typical scholar these days. He heard the waiter who served the dishes call Xie Ning "treasurer". greet.
Li Shiyi came from a wealthy family, but her father was clean and honest, and her mother was an embroidery girl from the south of the Yangtze River. Both of them were ordinary people, so naturally they would not look down on the inferior people, so her education did not allow her to treat others with color.
"Brother Ji Nian! This whole fish banquet was actually hosted by your husband? Xie Ning?" Li Shiyi frowned and stared at Xie Yao who was next to him, "Brother Yao, your brother is the shopkeeper. Why don't you say you want to come to eat?" carry?"
Xie Yao laughed loudly, deliberately teasing this coquettish little classmate, "I'm afraid you won't give me money, who would have expected my brother-in-law to be so honest."
Li Shiyi stomped his chopsticks and said angrily, "Brother Ning, why is your elder brother so stingy?"
It was the first time for Xie Ning to deal with unfamiliar scholars. For a moment, he didn't expect Li Shiyi to call him brother so generously, "My brother was joking. When he went upstairs, he quietly asked me not to accept your money."
"That's pretty much the same!" Li Shiyi grinned, a little like a daughter.
Xie Ning quietly pinched Zhou Jinnian's thigh under the table, why did he think that his husband's classmate looked like a girl?
Zhou Jinnian stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the fish, and when it fell into Xie Ning's bowl, he smiled and nodded at Xie Ning.
Even this little silly fish in his family can tell, Brother Xie Yao, alas!
"It's delicious, why would Brother Ning eat grilled fish?" Li Shiyi was so spoiled by his family that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"When I first came to Fucheng, Ji Nian took me to eat roast duck. I also love fish, so I tried roasting it. I didn't expect the fish to be tender, the edges were burnt, and the inside was still raw, so I changed it to boiled in a fit of anger."
Li Shiyi put down his chopsticks and clapped his hands, "How dare you! How dare you roast chicken, duck, or fish with thick skin?"
Xie Ning chatted with Li Shiyi with a smile, occasionally Xie Yao interrupted to chat with Li Shiyi.
Zhou Jinnian glanced at Zhang Youwen, the latter was very scholarly, but the chopsticks did not miss the fish on the table, Zhou Jinian lowered his eyes and chuckled, picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp.
The few people were full, Xie Ning ordered people to evacuate the table, served strong tea and snacks, and sat back to listen to her husband and the others chatting.
Li Shiyi: "Brother Yao, you have returned to Dajing Village, when will you come to Fucheng again?"
"At the beginning of February, I haven't seen my father for half a year, so stay at home for a while."
Li Shiyi held her face and sighed. She really wanted to pick elm coins and see the rice and fish fields in Dajing Village.
"Fourth brother, do you want to go to Dajing Village?" Li Shiyi was the youngest, and his friendship with classmates ranked fourth.
Zhou Jinnian tentatively suggested: "If the fourth brother has a sister who can be promised to the elder brother and kiss him, wouldn't this Dajing village just go if he wants to?"
"Cough!" Xie Yao took a sip of tea, what's the matter?
Li Shiyi pulled the tablecloth and went to see Xie Yao again, her face turned red, she felt it too, and was about to slip away in a hurry, "Xiao Liu goes home!"
Xiaoliu Grilled Fish couldn't compete with the other two bookboys, and now he was gnawing deliciously on the cakes, and when Li Shiyi got out of the screen to open the door, he realized that he opened the door and hurried back to Li's Mansion with the lady.
Seeing that the future uncle and sister-in-law had run away, Zhou Jinnian didn't intend to greet the pedantic Zhang Youwen anymore, so he stood up and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, so I'm leaving first."
He stood up and called the person beside him, "Ning Lang."
"Huh? Here it is!"
After the couple left the room, Zhang Youwen got up to say goodbye to Xie Yao, and made an appointment to go back to the school together in spring.

With the rest of the money, Xie Ning went to order a rectangular grilled fish plate, a small charcoal stove, tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, etc. for the shop.
Zhou Jinnian also gave him the money he had collected to harvest eggplants and peppers, and made steamed dried eggplants and chili sauce in a hurry, and sold them at street stalls.

On the plaque, there are three large characters of "Quanyuyan", written by Zhou Jinian, and described by the shop that made the plaque. There are two chubby carps before and after the name, which are cute and lucky.
Every pillar in the restaurant is written with words, this is Xie Ning's request, to encourage the common people to read and read, to enjoy the hardships of reading, and to enjoy the blessings of knowledge.

Xie Ning pursed his lips and smiled, he was used to being pampered, so he lay on his stomach without any pressure, holding the lantern forward with one hand for illumination.

Zhou Jinnian's legs were weak, he staggered a step, gritted his teeth, and hit the buttocks of the person on his back.
Xie Ning quickly covered his mouth with his other hand.
Zhou Jinnian was suffering in his heart, but he didn't open his mouth to explain. Instead of telling Ning Lang the truth and only increasing his guilt and pain, it's better to admit the disease of "no way" by himself.

"It's not sad!" Xie Ning said with certainty, the lonely year made him live so recklessly, he only wished to lie on the lonely year's back forever.
Zhou Jinnian smiled, a little moved, and continued to tease Fu Lang with nice words, "It's been so hard to open a restaurant, do you also love it the most?"
"En!" Xie Ning nodded, and poked Zhou Jinnian's shoulder twice with his chin, "Before I got married, I really wanted to open a restaurant, but no one could support me."
It was Zhou Ji Nian who encouraged and supported him. Being able to live with a man who makes him live like himself, confident and at ease, how can it be hard?
"Lone Year~" Xie Ning said softly, "I like you so much."
"Huh?" Zhou Jinian agreed first, and was immediately softened by the young husband's confession, "Yeah."
Xie Ning got love and support from him, and he also saw the gradual strength and growth from Xie Ning. This kind of positive and joint struggle also inspired him.
In the previous life, he was the only son, and his family was eccentric. Although his father and father loved him, they had more than enough heart.He was under pressure to support his family when he was just an adult, and then he spent his whole life fighting alone in order to provide a better life for his parents.
In this life, he married Ning Lang at the beginning to repay his kindness, and planned to enter the official examination, step by step to a high position, so that the family can live a good life, and he never thought about himself at all.
Unexpectedly, after the two got married, he was attracted by Ning Lang's straightforwardness and strength. When his father was lying on the bed, Xie Ning was filial and kind. Love cannot extricate itself.
Next, it was time for him to protect Ning Lang.
……
Ten days later, Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao entered the government school, Xie Yao took a schoolboy with him, and Zhou Jinian was alone.
Judging from the area and architecture of the academy, it is obvious that the imperial court focused on cultivating scholars.
The academy is located halfway up a mountain on the outskirts of the city. It is a huge academy with a quiet and quiet environment.The white walls at the entrance, black plaques and black couplets on a white background are like a book of poetry.
There is a stele of predecessors' poems and essays inside, engraved with the general idea that learning requires undivided attention, perseverance, and continuous innovation.
The granary students only need to pay for their meals or rice noodles, and some meat or silver for their teachers during the holidays. This is not a bribe, but they hope that the annual exams will be treated fairly.
If you fail the exam every year, you will no longer be able to stay in the academy to study, and you will have to take a scientific exam three years later, the purpose is to pass the provincial exam.
Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao were assigned to live in Courtyard A. There are eight rooms in the courtyard, and each room accommodates eight people.Zhou Ji Nian didn't bring a bookboy with him, so there were seven people living in the house, and three bookboys were on the floor outside.
After tidying up, the four scholars became acquainted with each other, and Zhou Ji Nian began to study in Fucheng.
In addition to Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao, the other two scholars are Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi. Zhang Youwen has been in the academy for two years and is quite familiar with it.
After everyone made their beds, Zhang Youwen suggested: "Three classmates, let's go to Cuju."
"Okay!" Xie Yao was the first to agree to the proposal.
School has not yet started, and some scholars who are far away from the school are still on the way, and the unlucky ones will be the last to arrive, and they will live next to the toilet.
Zhang Youwen looked at Zhou Jinnian, who nodded slightly, and then looked at Li Shiyi, the most handsome and fair man in the house, always with a folding fan in front of his chest.
Zhang Youwen looked down on Li Shiyi, who was twitchy, and he was also a white-faced scholar, so before Li Shiyi could express his opinion, he made up his mind and said, "I agree? Then let's change our corsets, and after playing Cuju, I'll take you to dinner." .”
"Huh? Change...change clothes?" Li Shiyi finally spoke, his voice seemed to have not changed, and it was a little shrill.
After all, Zhou Jinian's mental age was slightly older than the others, so he could tell something was wrong immediately, and when he looked at Li Shiyi again, he could feel something was wrong.
Willow-leaf eyebrows, round almond eyes, slender stature, always covering her chest with a fan, always looking at people carefully, as if she is very guilty, she seems to be a literati "Mulan".
Zhou Jinnian thought for a while and then said: "How about another day, I'm a little tired after rushing all the way to the academy, Brother Wen, would you like to take us around the academy?"
Li Shiyi nodded frantically, "Okay, okay!"
Xie Yao often saw the Cuju movement in his poems. As a farmland scholar studying hard in the cold window, he really yearned for it, and couldn't help protesting: "After dinner, you can still digest it. When will you So weak?"
"Brother Ji Nian is so weak, it's you, the white-faced scholar!"
It was Li Shiyi who spoke, and he moved the fan up to cover his mouth, staring at Xie Yao dissatisfied with his big eyes.
Zhou Jinnian didn't expect that the little girl would start a fight with her mouth, and was going to save her brother-in-law.
But Xie Yao came to his senses first, "Drink? Then aren't you more white-faced scholar? You're as white as a little girl."
"You!" Li Shiyi felt guilty for a moment, blinked his big eyes and felt aggrieved, "I just don't want to play Cuju."
"..." The other people were stunned, and Zhou Jinian held back what he wanted to say for his brother-in-law.
Xie Yao didn't expect that when this young man opened his mouth...so pitiful, he was the one who was rude to him the moment he opened his mouth.
Zhang Youwen coughed, and said unnaturally: "You are a big man, can you speak well?"
"Eh? It's nothing, so let's not play cuju. Let's go for a walk and get familiar with the academy." Xie Yao's family has younger brothers and younger sisters, and this Li Shiyi's coquettish words just now made him love him.
Zhou Jinnian had almost confirmed Li Shiyi's gender. Seeing that his brother-in-law was helping to speak, he remained silent, thinking to avoid suspicion.
Afterwards, Li Shiyi liked to follow Xie Yao's ass very much, thinking that this person had a good temper and was a gentleman.She was pampered since she was a child, and her words were a little out of her head, but she was not malicious. Xie Yao always bickered with her, but he never got angry.
As for Zhou Jinian, if Zhang Youwen was there, he would stay behind and cover Li Shiyi quietly; if Zhang Youwen was not there, he would find a way to escape, leaving his brother-in-law and Li Shiyi alone.
At other times, Zhou Jinnian reads books and writes articles.
……
The profit from Quanyu Banquet made Xie Ning feel confident from the bottom of his heart. It is not for everyone who is an ignorant and unskilled brother in Dajing Village to be able to open a big restaurant in Fucheng.
In the twelfth lunar month, the government school was on vacation, Zhou Jinian and Xie Yao returned home, and brought Zhang Youwen and Li Shiyi to eat grilled fish.
The reason was that Li Shiyi had heard that there was a whole fish feast on the West Street of Fucheng, and had always wanted to eat it. He kept talking to Xie Yao, who was close to him, and Xie Yao simply suggested to eat it together.
The weather was getting colder and colder, Xie Ning shrank his hands and was sorting out the books.
"Ning Lang? Where is it?"
Xie Ning: "Huh?" He raised his head to look at his father.
"Here, be careful." Lin Jin handed over a bag of fried chestnuts.
In autumn and winter, hot fried chestnuts are very popular on the street. Lin Jin went to the street to buy vegetables, and when she saw it, she bought a pack for Ning Lang.
At home, Ning Lang loves these small snacks. In the past, his son Ji Nian loved to buy them. Now that Ji Nian is away studying, he, his father, has developed this habit.
"Thank you dad." Xie Ning went to hold it in his hand, the warm palm was very comfortable.
The chestnuts are all in season and very fresh. The chestnuts inside the shell are bright and yellow, one bite at a time, the powder is glutinous, sweet and soft.
Lin Jin held the vegetable basket and said, "I'll eat in the store today, it's too cold, I won't go out for a walk, I'll suffer."
After he finished talking, he went to the back kitchen, and there was a helper to pick up the dishes and clean them immediately, so it didn't take him hard.
"Is your shopkeeper here?"
Xie Ning looked up, there was an elderly man at the entrance of Quanyuyan, the clothes he was wearing should be from a wealthy family.
"Yes, please, nobleman."
Xie Ning smiled and nodded in salute to people, they are also very particular about business and hospitality, as long as they are polite, too humble is even more offensive, and his husband is a scholar, his behavior will affect Zhou Ji Nian.
"The shopkeeper is well. My master's surname is Li. There is a happy event at home today. I am here to order two grilled fish. I would like to discuss with you. Can the grilled fish be sent to Li's residence?"
Li Mansion?At that time, only bureaucrats and aristocratic families were allowed to call themselves mansions. The housekeeper was kind and polite, and Li's mansion should be from a famous family.
Xie Ning nodded, "Of course, what flavor do you want? When will it be delivered to the house?"
"Spicy and garlic, one hour before dinner, I will marry you for the total amount."
There are fewer people going out on the street in winter, and the business of the whole fish banquet is a little less, but it does not affect the business by sending fish to two waiters.
"Two fish with four hundred coins, two errands, one person with five coins, a total of 410 coins." Xie Ning broke his fingers as usual, counting the money with the method Zhou Jinnian taught him.
Butler Li immediately took out the money and settled the bill after he understood it. It was just after lunch time, and he explained: "It's Li's Mansion in the Southwest, and there are two stone lions at the red gate."
"Shiwu and Shiliu come here." Xie Ning called the two waiters over, "I'll take two grilled fish to Li's Mansion on Southwest Street, Red Gate, there are two stone lions at the gate, remember?"
Butler Li recognized the two waiters, nodded at Xie Ning, and turned to go out, when he happened to meet a group of people who were entering the door.
"Little..." Butler Li recognized his young lady immediately.
"Master, I want to eat grilled fish!"
Li Shiyi responded quickly, frowned slightly, and stared at the housekeeper fiercely, a little cute.Immediately, a young man trotted over to greet the guests, "How many masters... are the shopkeepers?"
Xie Ning thought he was calling him, but as soon as he looked up, he saw the man in his arms who became colder and missed him more and more, "Ji Nian! Big brother!"
Butler Li kept watching his young lady go up to the second floor with a few scholars, and the young lady's attendant, Xiao Liu, turned his head and raised his eyebrows and winked at him from time to time.
"Alas..." Butler Li shook his head, and the whole fish banquet was served. The master took leave early and waited for the young lady to come home to eat grilled fish. Who knew that the young lady would not be able to stay, and the young lady had already eaten.
In the private room, Xie Ning ordered a small table to be set up outside, and served a grilled fish to the three little bookboys.
In the middle of the screen, there were two grilled fishes on the large camphor wood table. Although Xie Ning wanted to accompany her husband, it was inconvenient for him to be a businessman, so he turned around and wanted to go out of the screen.
But Zhou Jinnian grabbed Xie Ning, pulled him to sit on his right hand, and introduced to his classmates: "This is my husband, Lang Xie Ning."
Xie Ning opened his eyes wide, not knowing why, and then he heard that Zhou Jinnian was probably saying to him: "This is Zhang Youwen, this is Li Shiyi, they are all classmates of my elder brother and me."
Zhang Youwen is a typical scholar these days. He heard the waiter who served the dishes call Xie Ning "treasurer". greet.
Li Shiyi came from a wealthy family, but her father was clean and honest, and her mother was an embroidery girl from the south of the Yangtze River. Both of them were ordinary people, so naturally they would not look down on the inferior people, so her education did not allow her to treat others with color.
"Brother Ji Nian! This whole fish banquet was actually hosted by your husband? Xie Ning?" Li Shiyi frowned and stared at Xie Yao who was next to him, "Brother Yao, your brother is the shopkeeper. Why don't you say you want to come to eat?" carry?"
Xie Yao laughed loudly, deliberately teasing this coquettish little classmate, "I'm afraid you won't give me money, who would have expected my brother-in-law to be so honest."
Li Shiyi stomped his chopsticks and said angrily, "Brother Ning, why is your elder brother so stingy?"
It was the first time for Xie Ning to deal with unfamiliar scholars. For a moment, he didn't expect Li Shiyi to call him brother so generously, "My brother was joking. When he went upstairs, he quietly asked me not to accept your money."
"That's pretty much the same!" Li Shiyi grinned, a little like a daughter.
Xie Ning quietly pinched Zhou Jinnian's thigh under the table, why did he think that his husband's classmate looked like a girl?
Zhou Jinnian stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the fish, and when it fell into Xie Ning's bowl, he smiled and nodded at Xie Ning.
Even this little silly fish in his family can tell, Brother Xie Yao, alas!
"It's delicious, why would Brother Ning eat grilled fish?" Li Shiyi was so spoiled by his family that he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"When I first came to Fucheng, Ji Nian took me to eat roast duck. I also love fish, so I tried roasting it. I didn't expect the fish to be tender, the edges were burnt, and the inside was still raw, so I changed it to boiled in a fit of anger."
Li Shiyi put down his chopsticks and clapped his hands, "How dare you! How dare you roast chicken, duck, or fish with thick skin?"
Xie Ning chatted with Li Shiyi with a smile, occasionally Xie Yao interrupted to chat with Li Shiyi.
Zhou Jinnian glanced at Zhang Youwen, the latter was very scholarly, but the chopsticks did not miss the fish on the table, Zhou Jinian lowered his eyes and chuckled, picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp.
The few people were full, Xie Ning ordered people to evacuate the table, served strong tea and snacks, and sat back to listen to her husband and the others chatting.
Li Shiyi: "Brother Yao, you have returned to Dajing Village, when will you come to Fucheng again?"
"At the beginning of February, I haven't seen my father for half a year, so stay at home for a while."
Li Shiyi held her face and sighed. She really wanted to pick elm coins and see the rice and fish fields in Dajing Village.
"Fourth brother, do you want to go to Dajing Village?" Li Shiyi was the youngest, and his friendship with classmates ranked fourth.
Zhou Jinnian tentatively suggested: "If the fourth brother has a sister who can be promised to the elder brother and kiss him, wouldn't this Dajing village just go if he wants to?"
"Cough!" Xie Yao took a sip of tea, what's the matter?
Li Shiyi pulled the tablecloth and went to see Xie Yao again, her face turned red, she felt it too, and was about to slip away in a hurry, "Xiao Liu goes home!"
Xiaoliu Grilled Fish couldn't compete with the other two bookboys, and now he was gnawing deliciously on the cakes, and when Li Shiyi got out of the screen to open the door, he realized that he opened the door and hurried back to Li's Mansion with the lady.
Seeing that the future uncle and sister-in-law had run away, Zhou Jinnian didn't intend to greet the pedantic Zhang Youwen anymore, so he stood up and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, so I'm leaving first."
He stood up and called the person beside him, "Ning Lang."
"Huh? Here it is!"
After the couple left the room, Zhang Youwen got up to say goodbye to Xie Yao, and made an appointment to go back to the school together in spring.
