The sturdy life of crossing

Jian Leyang's family once again lived in the Canghe gang's house, occupying a yard alone, and no one dared to disturb Mrs. Jian by making a noise when the boss spoke. Hua Jia also sent fresh ingredients over like last time.

As the head of Enke's case last time, Father Jian still had a certain influence among the candidates. The age of the head of the case in the first half of the year was about the same as Father Jian's. When other scholars came to visit Father Jian, Jian Leyang and Jian Wenyuan also came out. Going to check the situation, I found out that someone has opened the bet again. This time, I will bet on the two heads of the case, who can get the Jieyuan, or which of the two heads can be ranked better, because there are other prefectures. Come to the case, the competition in the township examination is not insignificant.

"Brother, should we make a bet?" Thinking of the situation last year, Jian Wenyuan hesitated.

Jian Leyang looked around and said, "Just download this."

Jian Leyang made a bet of 100 taels of silver, betting that Jian Dongxiang could enter the top five in the Dongxiang test, surpassing the new leader.The competition is really big, not only there are talents from this year's college examination and last year's Enke, but also many old talents who have passed the test more than once. Jian Leyang dare not say that his father can win the first place and become Jieyuan, so it is better to be on the safe side It doesn't matter if you get into the top five, it doesn't matter if you don't win, it's just 100 taels of silver, brother is very rich now, you can spend 1000 taels or 1 taels.

Jian Wenyuan also smiled secretly, and the two brothers looked at each other, deciding that neither of them would tell this matter, and they would wait until the exam was over.

When I went back, it happened that Jane’s father came out to see off the three scholars who came to visit him. Jian Leyang and Jian Wenyuan saw that they still knew each other. The family also kept in touch with each other by walking around.The three scholars greeted the two of them with a smile, especially they also knew that Jian Wenyuan had become a child student, so they encouraged him a lot.

After entering the courtyard, I ran into servants from the Hua family, who were talking to Jian Niang politely. When Jian Leyang and Jian Wenyuan came back, they politely saluted before leaving. The young master is too polite, the ingredients delivered the day I first came here have not been eaten yet, and today they are delivered again, and the attitude of the servants is also good, no wonder the Hua family can become an imperial merchant and spread their business all over the country."

Jian Niang was full of praise for this Young Master Hua, and she believed that without Hua Jia's order, the servant's attitude would not be so good.Although when I saw this Young Master Hua on the pier before, I felt that his eyes were too sentimental, but after getting in touch with him, I felt that this was not the case. Regret.

Jian Leyang secretly rolled his eyes, as long as he doesn't go along with his mother, his mother will gradually calm down Very heartwarming, Jian Leyang laughed secretly, if Hua Jia came over at this time, he would find that the leader Le was gone, replaced by Jian Leyang, the elder brother of the Jian family, but the truth was so missed again.

On the day of the exam, Jian Leyang's family sent Father Jian to the gate of the Gongyuan, watched Father Jian go through the body search and entered the Gongyuan before turning around and leaving. There were three exams in total for the township examination, one for three days, that is, in the No. [-] room of the Gongyuan After staying for three days and two nights, Jian Le Yangguang felt that it was enough to think about it, and admired those candidates who failed repeatedly.

On the way, Jian Wenyuan looked back at the Gongyuan several times, and Jian Leyang patted him on the head: "Don't be envious, there will be times when you will be locked up in this Gongyuan number room in the future."

"Compared to what my brother did, it's much easier to be locked in the number room." Jian Wenyuan shook his head and said.

Jian Leyang flicked his younger brother's forehead, smiled and said nothing.

Come over late on the third day to pick up Father Jane, have a full night’s rest after eating, and send people back in early in the morning. In this way, you can breathe a sigh of relief when you pick him up for the third time, but this time Father Jane obviously I was much emaciated, and there was a sour smell coming from my body. After I came back, I took a quick bath, poured some soup and medicine, ate something, and then fell down to sleep. This sleep lasted for a day and a night before I regained my strength.

Father Jane, who had recovered, was just about to go out with his family. During the past nine days, his wife and two children had been worrying about working with him, so the outside posts were sent over, all of which were invitations to Father Jane to participate in various literary meetings and meetings. For other gatherings, Jian Niang saw Father Jian's embarrassed expression, waved her hand and said, "Master, you can go and attend, don't worry about us, with Brother Yang and Wen Yuan here, are you still worried that I will be idle?"

Jian Leyang smiled and didn't say anything. This man will be more tempted as he goes up. Some gatherings are not just about poetry and papers. Of course he still believes in his father.

Father Jane also knows that this kind of gathering cannot be ignored completely. In the future, his same year may come from these people. These will be his contacts outside, not only related to himself, but also related to Wenyuan's future development. So after the selection, I participated in several literary meetings with Li Xiucai and others.

Jian Leyang found out that his mother said generously that he let Jian's father go to participate, but when Jian's father came back from outside, Jian's mother took out the clothes that Jian's father had changed, sniffed and smelled, and found that there was only some alcohol smell After there was no smell of powder, she showed a relieved and satisfied expression.

Jian Leyang stared at the sky speechlessly, can mother be more obvious?Jian Wenyuan is a foolish boy. Seeing this scene, he asked his brother: "Brother, does mother dislike dad drinking outside? Do you want to remind dad when he wakes up?"

Jian Leyang flicked his silly brother on the forehead angrily: "Don't worry, as long as our father is not going to drink flower wine, mother will have nothing to worry about, you can remember, you will be the same in the future, you can drink, but you can't drink flower wine .”

Jian Wenyuan's face flushed immediately, which surprised Jian Leyang, hey, this kid is so old, he actually knows the meaning of drinking flower wine.

Seeing him patronizing and shy and not answering, Jian Leyang stretched out his hand to knock again, Jian Wenyuan quickly covered his head to hide: "Brother, I know!" Turning around, he muttered again, "With my brother here, do I dare to drink that wine?" Curious and afraid of being peeled off by his brother. "

Finally found the day to release the rankings again, Li Xiucai and the three of them came together to find Father Jian to watch the rankings. The three of them felt lucky to have passed the college examination last time. This time it was purely for a formality, so they acted very relaxed. This time, even if he was lucky, he would not be able to pass the exam, but he had high expectations for Father Jane.

There are more people watching the list this time than last year's examination. There are people everywhere outside the Gongyuan, and the teahouse was occupied early. Li Xiucai shook his head and sighed: "It seems that we still underestimated the time when we read the list. If you know the situation, you should book a seat in advance.

"It's still some time before the list is released, why don't you find a place to sit first." Father Jian suggested that there are still vacant places a little further away.

"Alright, listen to Brother Jian."

The group of people didn't go far when they were stopped by a young guy who pointed to the opposite restaurant. Jian Leyang looked up and yelled, the person standing in front of the window waving a fan was not Hua Jia.

Seeing that it was the guy from the Huajia Restaurant, and Huajia was upstairs again, Father Jian subconsciously looked at his brother Yang. Will this meeting reveal his brother's identity?Jian Leyang smiled at his father, it doesn't matter, even if it is exposed, it doesn't matter, could it be that Young Master Hua can still yell around?Xie Wenyi, which Hua Jia liked, was still in his hands, and he believed that his one sentence in front of Xie Wenyi was more useful than Hua Jia's ten sentences.

Seeing that Brother Yang didn't care, Father Jian asked Li Xiucai and the three of them what they meant, and then took someone to go with the boy, and introduced the identity of Hua Jia who was waving to them from upstairs to Li Xiucai and the three of them. The three scholars rolled their eyes, but they didn't expect it to be the Hua family of the imperial merchant, and the young master of the Hua family seemed to have a very close relationship with Jian's father.

Jian Wenyuan and Jian Leyang were at the back. Jian Wenyuan whispered to his brother with a weird face, while Jian Leyang looked calm and relaxed. Anyway, he wouldn't be the one who would be scared.

"Brother, do you really want to avoid it?" Jian Wenyuan glanced at the handsome guy upstairs, and then at his brother.

"What are you avoiding? Is there anything shameful about your brother and me?" Jian Leyang glanced at him, "Besides, the gloating look on your face doesn't seem to be serious to persuade me to avoid it."

Jian Wenyuan's black line, brother, can you stop exposing him so quickly.

Hua Jia smiled and watched Jane's father and his party approaching, with the shopkeeper of the restaurant beside him, talking to Hua Jia about the situation of the township examination and the possible high school candidates, Hua Jia raised his eyebrows and asked: "Why, you don't like Jane? Scholar?"

"This..." The shopkeeper, Jian Dong, Jian Xiucai's situation is really difficult to say. This time he participated in the provincial examination, someone mentioned his strange luck in the past, and this time, there are many talented people who were famous in the past to rush for the examination. , so this Jian Dong seems inconspicuous among these people.

"Forget it, that's all I'm going to say. Anyway, the results of this township examination will be announced soon. It's useless to say anything before the results are released."

Hua Jia smiled lightly. Every time he went back to the provincial examination and the subsequent general examinations, there would be some talents who made a high-profile appearance, but how many of these talents could become Jinshi?

Hua Jia's gaze casually swept across the expressive examinees below, and finally fell back on Jian Dong and his group. When he saw the last two clearly, his eyebrows twitched a few times, and he almost called out one by one. Look closely, but that face is different.

"Brother, he is looking at you." Jian Wenyuan found out and whispered to his brother's ear.

Jian Leyang raised his eyebrows, and treated the sight cast on him as if it didn't exist. Although his face was different, but other aspects were too similar. When the person disappeared from sight, Hua Jia almost turned around and went downstairs, but he immediately realized Those who come here will soon be led here.

Hua Jia put away the folding fan, and pressed her eyebrows that were still beating. The one outside just now should be the legendary Guai Li brother of Mr. Jian... Maybe it is the same person as the leader Le?Leader Le Gang is clearly a man.

But apart from that face, everything else, from the strands of hair to the heels, is just like the Leyang leader. Seeing the way he talks to Jian Wenyuan, how can he believe that it is not the leader of Leyang?

Hua Jia was struggling to digest this unbelievable news, and still couldn't make up his mind whether to confirm it with his own mouth or adopt another attitude. The sound of footsteps going upstairs had already sounded, and they were coming to his private room. Hua Jia wiped his face, and it is better to remain unchanged. If that brother is really the leader of the Canghe Gang, then he cannot reveal his identity in front of outsiders, unless he wants to make enemies with the Canghe Gang.

Just as he put on a serious expression, there was a knock on the door, and the shopkeeper who was following him rushed to open the door after Hua Jia signaled him, and invited a group of people in.

Hua Jia's eyes wandered over Jian Leyang who was at the back, and found that this guy happened to be looking at him too. As soon as his eyes made contact, he showed him a meaningful smile. Hua Jia almost choked on his own saliva. His composure almost broke on this day.

"Master Jian is looking at the list, why don't you just wait in my private room for a while, Hua believes that Master Jian will definitely be on the list." Hua Jia tried hard not to let his eyes wander, focusing on Father Jian and On the three scholars who came together, the expression of Jian Leyang just now made him more certain that it was the leader of Leyang. He carefully looked at the expression of Mrs. Jian, and he was a little unimaginable. His brother was in the river transport business with a bunch of rough men, and he could see that the family had a very good relationship.

Jian's father, Yan Yan: "Young Master Hua has won the award, I hope it is as Young Master Hua said." He then introduced his three friends to Hua Jia.

After everyone got to know each other, Hua Jia couldn't sit still any longer, twisted a few times uncomfortably, got up and said, "Hua has other things to do, Mrs. Jian and everyone here can use the private room at ease, if you need anything, just let the shopkeeper handle it." , when the list is released, there will be a guy to read the list for Mrs. Jian."

"Thank you!" Father Jane said gratefully.

Hua Jia greeted them politely, then walked out first with fists cupped. Jian Leyang was by the door, winking at his younger brother and parents, and retreated without a trace, following behind Hua Jia. Unaware, he went to another hidden private room, and Jian Leyang followed in carelessly.

Although Hua Jia also intended to ask Jian Leyang alone, but seeing Jian Leyang following him as a brother, he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth,...is he really a brother?It's no wonder that Wen Yi didn't shy away from him at all when getting along with him. He had carefully observed and suspected it before, and the current situation made him understand that Wen Yi must have known Jian Leyang's identity early on, and it was precisely because of knowing his identity, That's why he stayed in the Canghe Gang without any hesitation.

Hua Jia turned around and opened her mouth: "You..." This face is much more colorful than the face of the leader of the Leyang gang. If you don't know his character well, and just stand there quietly, you probably...will be very popular. , but thinking of his other identity, Hua Jia felt that this face was a bit irritating to the eyes, and it was not as pleasing to the eye as the face of the leader of the Leyang Gang.

"Master Hua is dumb? There will be a day when he can't speak. Could it be that this face is so important?" Jian Leyang walked to the side and sat down, poured a cup of tea by himself, and touched himself while talking s face.
