Chapter 100 The new wind is rising(1/2)
On the last day of June, add a fatter seal and ask for pink.¢£,
...
Han Xiaowei Hou wore a crimson brocade robe with a belt today, and stood there and glanced around, and fell on Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San.
Han Xiaowei Wuhou had a slight smile on his face.
"Brother Ji, Xiaotang, I've been missing for many days."
Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San rushed forward to salute.
"Brother Han is polite." Master Ji San said.
"My uncle and I want to find Uncle Han, but Uncle Han's dragon cannot see him, so we have to wait for the summons." Ji Xiaotang said.
Han Xiaowei Hou looked down at Ji Xiaotang, and the smile on his face became stronger.
"This is mine."
"Xiaotang is joking, brother doesn't have to take it seriously. Brother is a serious person, so he is not like us. He usually eats and plays." Master Ji San said with a smile.
The three of them talked and laughed, and then sat in the private room.
The layout of the private room has not changed, but this time, the teahouse staff did not need to serve him.
Ji Xiaotang personally cooked tea. As for the tea sets and tea leaves, they are naturally not items in the teahouse, but are the best items collected by Master Ji Er.
Han Xiaowei Hou naturally looked at all these. Perhaps these are not big deals, but the more such tiny details are, the more careful the owner is, and it makes people feel comfortable and comfortable.
Han Xiaowei Hou nodded secretly and asked casually what Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San were busy at home.
"I'm helping my mother with housework." Ji Xiaotang said with a smile.
"Although Xiaotang is young, he is already good at managing the family, which is rare." Han Xiaowei said.
"My father and mother said the same thing." Ji Xiaotang smiled, not humble.
Han Xiaoweiwuhou turned to Master Ji San. Master Ji San said just now that he was just eating, drinking and having fun. Now when he saw Han Xiaoweiwuhou asking seriously, he answered seriously.
“…Learn to cook things in the farm.”
"Uncle Han is also very busy these days?" Ji Xiaotang asked casually.
What Han Xiaowei Wuhou did naturally would not say so carelessly. However, if you don’t ask this at this time, it would seem strange.
"Yes." Han Xiaoweihou sighed softly, but did not mean to continue to explain in detail.
Ji Xiaotang no longer asked. Han Xiaowei Hou had a slightly frosty look on his face, and he could tell at a glance that these days were quite fulfilling.
"But these are all." Han Xiaowei Hou said, "I should go home as the end of the year is approaching. Although I have seen a lot of people and things when I came out this time, I don't really care about it. ⊥,"
Speaking of this, Han Xiaowei Hou looked at Ji Xiaotang with deep eyes.
"Except...you...two." That's why he took this opportunity to meet Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San before returning to Beijing.
"It shows that my brother is very kind." Master Ji San said.
"This may be the so-called fate." Han Xiaoweihou whispered in a low tone, as if there was something else.
"Uncle Han has a big deal. Although my uncle and I want to stay Han for a longer period of time, we dare not delay Han Xiaoxiao's itinerary. Uncle Han is in a hurry, afraid that we don't have time to buy a home. My uncle and I took the initiative and bought a copy for Uncle Han. We also asked Uncle Han not to dislike him, and go back to reward people." Ji Xiaotang said, then took out the gift list from his sleeve and solemnly handed it to Han Xiaowei Hou.
Han Xiaowei Wuhou seemed a little surprised, but he still took the gift list from Ji Xiaotang.
He was a little curious.
When he lowered his head and saw what was written on the Qing gift list, Han Xiaowei Wuhou had no strange looks on his face, but his brows were raised slightly.
"Is this the homework that you two little guys bought for me?" Han Xiaoweihou raised his head and asked.
"That's right." Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San both replied.
Han Xiaoweihou put down the gift list and tapped his fingers on the table.
"Uncle Han, don't be too careful. This is really just a little bit of my heart and I. Uncle Han, Xu, gave us such a valuable meeting gift without avoiding suspicion. Why don't I let my uncle and I get along with Uncle Han, so I will repay you with my lover?" Ji Xiaotang also raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile.
"Brother Han, I am a straight-tempered person and can't speak in a genius manner. If there is anything offensive, Brother Han must not argue with me." Master Ji San also said, "If it weren't for someone who matched my temper, I wouldn't be able to curry favor with him, no matter how I am the King of Heaven."
"Brother Han, if you don't accept it, you just don't recognize me as a brother and look down on me." Master Ji San stood up.
"Uncle Han, this gift is both heavy and light. What is light is the thing, and what is heavy is the heart of the people. If Uncle Han thinks it is light, we will take it back immediately without saying a word. If Uncle Han thinks it is heavy, my uncle and I will not be disgusting in front of Uncle Han, so we will say goodbye immediately."
"You two..." Han Xiaowei Hou's eyes turned to Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San, and then he laughed loudly, "Okay! Well said! I'm so young, so I'm not as good as you two children. I'll punish you three drinks, so don't just ignore me, my friend!"
Ji Xiaotang smiled slightly, and Master Ji San laughed, and then sat down again.
Han Xiaowei Wuhou is a person who keeps his word. After receiving the gift list, he would use tea instead of wine, and he would punish him with three glasses of wine.
"Since you say you are punishing wine, no matter how good this tea is, it is not wine." Master Ji San was so clever and could see the opportunity, so he stopped him with a smile.
Han Xiaowei blinked.
"Uncle Han rarely comes out to meet us. This time I go to the capital, I don't know when I will meet. My uncle and I prepare a small banquet to celebrate the prosperity of a hero like Uncle Han, and how can I see him off?" Ji Xiaotang said.¢£,
"You are considerate, okay, today we will follow your uncle and nephew." Han Xiaoweihou nodded with a smile.
Magistrate Xie had already prepared a banquet in the county government, but Han Xiaowei Hou did not hesitate at all.
The banquet was indeed prepared long ago. Ji Xiaotang continued to give instructions. After a while, all kinds of dishes were placed on it. The dishes were not diverse, but everything was extremely clean.
Han Xiaoweihou was very particular about food and did not speak of it. The three of them quietly used the meal. After the banquet was removed, they changed into tea. Han Xiaoweihou's close servant came up to remind Han Xiaoweihou.
It was getting late, and Han Xiaoweihou was going back to Beijing, and there were still many things to do.
"Getting to know Xiaotang and Little Brother Ji is the biggest gain of my trip this time. Unfortunately, I can't get together for a long time. If Xiaotang and Little Brother Ji come to Beijing in the future, they can come to see me." Han Xiaowei Hou said.
"Thank you for your kindness. The mountains and rivers do not turn. If you are destined to be together, you will definitely meet again in the future." Master Ji San said.
This sentence seemed to be right about Han Xiaowei Hou's thoughts, and he looked at Master Ji San's expression more gentle and amiable.
"Xiaotang..." Han Xiaowei turned to Ji Xiaotang, "What are Xiaotang's plans in the future?"
After asking this, Han Xiaowei Hou seemed to feel something was wrong, and then asked Master Ji San what plans he had in the future.
"Oh..." Master Ji San did not answer immediately.
"My uncle will naturally study hard in the future, and at least seek fame and fortune." Ji Xiaotang said for Master Ji San.
Master Ji San looked at Ji Xiaotang and did not refute it in front of Han Xiaowei Hou.
Ji Xiaotang smiled again.
"If the court is willing to start a female subject, I would also like to give it a try."
After saying this, Han Xiaoweihou laughed.
"Why does Xiaotang want to be an official too?"
"I didn't want to be an official. I just read books with my grandfather and dad for many years, and wanted to try it out and see how my knowledge was." Ji Xiaotang said.
"If Brother Ji can go to Beijing for the exam, come to me. Xiaotang will come to you and may try the women's department." Han Xiaowei said in a hurry.
Ji Xiaotang opened his eyes slightly widened.
Han Xiaoweihou squinted his eyes and smiled.
The servant next to him urged him again. Han Xiaowei Wuhou said goodbye to Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San, got into the sedan chair, and was surrounded by people and headed towards the county government.
Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San returned to the Ji family, and Master Ji Er was already waiting for them in the study.
"How is it?" After all, the other party's origin is unusual, and Master Ji Er is very concerned about this meeting.
"Everything goes well." Master Ji San said with a smile.
Looking at the faces of Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang, Master Ji Er knew that this meeting was quite successful.
The two sides had a great conversation, and the one who received the gift they gave happily.
There was only one thing that made Master Ji San a little unhappy.
"Xiaotang said that I want to study and take the imperial examination. Fortunately, Brother Han left quickly and was still far away. Otherwise, what should I say when I ask in the future!"
"Xiaotang said this?" Master Ji Er looked at Ji Xiaotang.
"Well, I said it." Ji Xiaotang nodded, "Uncle, don't worry. If it really doesn't work, you will really take the exam, so what's the point."
"This is very easy to say." Master Ji San rolled his eyes.
"It's nothing if you fail the exam. Uncle Han and his uncle are in love. When the time comes, they will give him a free official position, and his uncle will be an official." Ji Xiaotang said.
Master Ji San pondered.
After thinking for a moment, Master Ji Er showed joy on his face.
"It's not bad." He disdained to give gifts and seek official positions, but he agreed to spend a sum of money to seek an official position for Mr. Ji San.
"Your gift is good." Even if other plans fail, as long as the one who keeps down the love and takes care of Mr. Ji San in the future, that's enough.
"Dad, please advise my uncle." Ji Xiaotang secretly gave Master Ji Er a wink.
Master Ji Er nodded and immediately called Master Ji San to come. Master Ji Er did not tell Master Ji San how important it is to study. He was talking about the officialdom.
"Third brother, you are not young anymore, you should have a fame or official position on your body..."
Ji Xiaotang did not continue to listen to Master Ji Er persuade Master Ji San, but left the study and came back.
To be continued...
