Jia Min's Counterattack

Lin Ruhai looked at Qi Lan, smiled and handed Qi Lan a small bamboo basket.

Qi Lan took it and opened the lid to look in. Inside were his favorite snacks, which he often ate in Lin Ruhai's study.A glimmer of light flashed across Qi Lan's seriousness, and his cold heart instantly felt much warmer.He knew that Jia Min made these dim sum by himself. When he ate it in Lin Ruhai's study for the first time, Lin Ruhai's face turned dark.But thinking back, it seems that from then on, every time he came, Lin Ruhai would ask Lin Xing to serve him these snacks.There are many such little things, but they flowed through his heart like a trickle, melting the layer of ice on the outside, allowing him to open his heart to Lin Ruhai and Jia Min.

"Thank you! You and Jia Min are good people!"

Lin Ruhai smiled without saying a word, nor looked at him, but nodded lightly.

A bright smile appeared on Qi Lan's beautiful face, then she turned and left holding the bamboo basket.

Jia Zheng and the Wang family stopped and rested along the way, bumping and bumping to Kuizhou in the middle of Shu, and it took two and a half months.

Wang's body is thin, and just after he left the border of Henan, it rained heavily, and Wang caught wind and cold, and had a high fever for four or five days before he recovered.Fortunately, they were not in a hurry, and stayed in a small town for a few days, and then continued on the road when Mrs. Wang recovered.

Mrs. Wang really regretted it. The tossing all the way cost her half her life, and she kept clamoring to go back to the capital.

Jia Zheng is not a master who can pity the fragrance and cherish the jade. No matter how much the Wang family cries, Jia Zhengdou will not be moved. Once Wang was forced into a hurry, so he said coldly: "You can go back to Beijing if you want, and I will give it to you here." Rent a carriage and go back by yourself! The following servants were arranged for me by the mansion, and they came to Kuizhou to serve me on a special trip, and they will definitely not go back with you."

How dare Mrs. Wang go back to the capital alone in a carriage, let alone thousands of miles away from the capital, even if it is close, there is no reason for a single woman to go on the road.Seeing that Jia Zheng's attitude was firm and it would be useless to make trouble, Wang gritted his teeth and persisted until he reached Kuizhou.

Kuizhou is a small city built by mountains and rivers. Because at the entrance of the west end of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, there are cliffs standing on both sides of the banks, hundreds of feet high and less than a hundred meters wide. It looks like a gate, so it is named Kuimen.The water from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River enters the gorge through this gate; it is the west gate of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River. The water in the gorge is deep and fast, and the narrowest part of the river is less than 50 meters. known as.Kuizhou also got its name because of this, and this place was called Fengjie City in ancient times.Because it is close to the Yangtze River and has a large wharf, there are a lot of businessmen in the city.As there are more merchants from other places, the city is gradually becoming prosperous, and all kinds of pavilions and pavilions built on the hillside are very spectacular.

Although Jia Zheng was not very clear in his studies, he had the feelings of a literati in his bones. Seeing this unprecedented landscape, his heart was full of pride, and he vowed to do something in Kuizhou.

There is a lot of miasma in the middle of Shu, and Kuizhou is built near mountains and rivers, and the climate is very humid.Before June, it was very sweltering and hot here.Ever since she arrived in Kuizhou, Mrs. Wang has been dispirited. She went to the doctor to see it, and said that the climate was not acclimatized.

Moreover, the people here have a heavy taste in food, and they cannot do without chili for three meals.Jia Zheng was fine. Although he couldn't eat it at first, he got used to it after eating it a few times.Wang Shi was a delicate girl in her boudoir, because of her mother's early death, Wang Ziteng and Old General Wang also spoiled her, and they never put anything they didn't like into their mouths.But when she arrived in Kuizhou, she asked the cook to cook for her without chili, but the other cook quit because she couldn't cook it!As a result, Mrs. Wang, who had lost a lot of weight during the bumps on the road, was not acclimatized to the environment and could not eat, and her whole body became even more haggard.

After all, Jia Zheng couldn't bear to see her like this, so he asked someone to send her back to Beijing.It's been a tough journey, but Mrs. Wang hasn't forgotten it, and really doesn't want to make another trip, maybe even her life will be on the road.In this way, Mrs. Wang forced herself to slowly adapt to life in Kuizhou. By the time she really got used to it, almost a year had passed, and Mrs. Wang no longer wanted to return to Beijing, and she stayed in Kuizhou for ten years.These are all things for later, so I won't mention them for now.

After Jia Zheng joined the job, he quickly adapted to his job.There are few scholars in Shu, but although Kuizhou is prosperous, there are many merchants and few literati.Jia Zheng's errand really couldn't be more leisurely.He wanted to open a poetry club or something, but he couldn't find many people, and the number of students in the government school was pitifully small. There were only two husbands, and they were only scholars.

Jia Zheng's enthusiasm was completely chilled in front of the reality, and he really wanted to go back home, but thinking of staying here for a few years before returning to the capital, he would be a justifiable fifth-rank official, and maybe he would return. Going a step further, he can settle down and dawdle in Kuizhou.

Jia Daishan's army broke out within a few days after receiving the imperial decree from the class teacher to return to the pilgrimage.This time, King Yan followed them back to the capital to return to his command.

Along the way, Jia Daishan and King Yan often discussed the art of war in one place, and sometimes they fell asleep together when they got too late.By the time they arrived in the capital, they were already called brothers and sisters.

"Old brother! I probably won't leave after I return to Beijing this time. If I have time, I'll go to the house to find you, hey! Why don't you come to me! I'm the only one in my house. Good place to have a drink and chat.”

"You brat, you also know that there is no one in your house! Why don't you hurry up and marry a daughter-in-law when you return to Beijing this time, and give birth to a few cubs, so you can pass your days."

"Why do you say that, brother? It's not that I don't want to marry a wife, it's just that I haven't met the woman who makes me fall in love. I made an oath that I will find a woman who loves each other for the rest of my life."

Jia Daishan slapped King Yan on the head, "You bastard, a decent boudoir girl, how can anyone come out for you to meet? If you want to find someone who is in love with you, don't you want to go to the place of fireworks to choose? "

Yan Wang rubbed his head and said aggrievedly: "I'm not stupid, how can that dirty woman be worthy of me. I just want to be like my father and mother. They fall in love at first sight and join hands for a lifetime. How wonderful! "

"Yeah! I think about it too! I've been thinking about it all my life! But how many such coincidences are there?" Jia Daishan cast a glance at King Yan, thought for a while, and laughed again: "There really is one! Hehe!"

"Who is it! Tell me!"

"You also know this person, he is now my son-in-law!"

King Yan didn't know who it was for a moment, and was still staring at Jia Daishan in a daze.

Jia Daishan patted him on the head again, "Look at your stupidity! It's Lin Ruhai!"
