Chapter 31 Don’t think nonsense



Xie Yuan raised his hand, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but put it on Jiang Mingyue's little head, and rubbed it gently. Well, it felt as good as he thought.

As if he were a thief, he withdrew his hand again before she could react.

"Before I passed the exam, I didn't have much money, but after I passed the exam, I no longer lacked money."

Seeing the confused look on the girl's face, Xie Yuan took a sip of tea and said warmly: "Have you ever heard of the saying, 'No one asked for ten years of hard work, and you become famous all over the world in one fell swoop'?"

Jiang Mingyue nodded slightly.

"After I won the election, the wealthy households in Wanping, the landowners from the dock, and respectable merchants all came. They sent a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, as well as many house deeds and land deeds."

Jiang Mingyue suddenly realized after hearing this.

“Although I didn’t receive them all, I couldn’t get rid of some of them, so I wasn’t short of money.

Moreover, I made a lot of money during the three years of traveling abroad. After returning to Wanping, the reason why I came to teach at Yu's Private School was more to repay a favor. When I was studying in Yu's Private School, Mr. Yu in the private school My husband helped me a lot. As for going to the medicine hall for consultation..."

Xie Yuan paused and looked at Jiang Mingyue who was listening carefully, but did not hide anything from her.

"The medicine hall is opened by Uncle Luan and I. As another owner, I naturally have to visit it often."

Jiang Mingyue's eyes widened, her eyelids and eyebrows slightly raised, and she was shocked when she looked at Xie Yuan. This was something she had never expected.

"I may not be a wealthy businessman now, but I am definitely not short of money, so don't think about it, okay?" Xie Yuan looked down at her slightly, with a trace of tenderness flashing in his deep eyes.

Knowing that Xie Yuan was rich, Jiang Mingyue felt relieved and raised the corners of her mouth with a bright smile on her face.

"I know!"

Jiang Mingyue paused and asked curiously: "Brother Xie, why did you not take the general examination after the provincial examination, but went out for a trip? I know that traveling is not only hard work, but also a very dangerous thing."

After all, you may encounter anything during your travels, including getting lost, encountering bandits, illegal shops, the boat capsized, etc. Jiang Mingyue had heard of several such things when she was at home.

"Because at that time I was not sure about passing the imperial examination."

Xie Yuan took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and said: "If God bless me, maybe I can be on the list. Of course, the biggest possibility is to fail. If I just fail, it's okay. I'm afraid I will probably fall behind. In the list But he is a fellow Jinshi."

Jiang Mingyue knew Tong Jinshi. As the saying goes, Tong Jinshi is like his wife. If he really becomes Tong Jinshi, he will have no chance to take the scientific examination in the future, and he can only be a minor official, with almost no room for advancement in his official career.

"Oh!"

How can a person like Brother Xie be willing to win the same Jinshi title?

"My teacher told me at that time that my articles and strategies were all fine, but there was still something missing."

Jiang Mingyue thought for a while and asked with some uncertainty: "Experience?"

Xie Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up. He didn't expect her to guess it so easily. He praised without hesitation: "Smart, what I lack is experience. The teacher said that my words were too empty and lacked spirituality. He told me that this world is very complicated." Big, you might as well go out for a walk while you’re young.”

"It's better to read thousands of books than to travel thousands of miles." Jiang Mingyue said.

"Yes, the teacher asked me to read and think while walking, so that I can make breakthroughs in my articles and poems."

Xie Yuan told Jiang Mingyue the reason for traveling. When Jiang Minghong came over and said, "Go back and rest! Come back tomorrow to learn dialects."

Only then did Jiang Mingyue realize that it was already past half hour, and she hurriedly stood up.

"Thank you brother for good night!"

Then he took his brother's hand and returned home.

At the same time, in Kyoto, Chen Fugui sent Shang Feng and the two out with a smile on his face.

At an inconspicuous street corner, two beggars looked at the three people leaving and looked at each other before one of them quietly followed them.

After a while, Shen Jiaoniang saw her husband coming back. She handed him the honey water that she had brewed and asked, "That friend of yours who went up to the peak is a little strange. What does he mean by what he said?"

Chen Fugui drank the honey water, leaned on the bed tiredly and said, "Did you hear everything?"

"Heard some!"

Chen Fugui squinted his eyes and said: "Although Mr. Sun spoke in Mandarin, he had an accent from the south of the Yangtze River. He came all the way to Kyoto to ask us about brother-in-law Jiang and sister Xiaohong. I guess something happened over there in Yuanjiang Mansion."

Shen Jiaoniang's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and her expression changed drastically.

Chen Fugui took his wife's hand, patted it gently and comforted him: "You don't have to worry. Although brother-in-law Jiang is a businessman, he is very smart and has more eyes than a honeycomb. He will definitely be fine."

He paused and said: "I guess he should have expected that someone would deal with him, so he sent Xiao Hong and the two out of Yuanjiang Mansion first, otherwise Mr. Sun would not have come to Kyoto to ask us for information."

Shen Jiaoniang felt a little relieved after hearing this.

"He asked for information about Mingyue and Xiaohong?"

"I guess brother-in-law Jiang holds the other party's handle, so the other party doesn't dare to act rashly in an attempt to find Mingyue and the two men to threaten brother-in-law and sister."

Shen Jiaoniang became a little worried again after hearing this.

"Doesn't that mean that Yue and Xiaohong will be in danger? I don't know where my brother-in-law and sister sent them."

Chen Fugui looked at his worried wife and narrowed his eyes slightly when he thought of what Mr. Sun said. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.

"Don't worry. Since my brother-in-law and sister sent them out, they should have made arrangements. Mingyue and I will be fine."

He let go of his wife's hand and said, "Tomorrow, write a letter to your sister and say this in the letter."

Chen Fugui lay down and whispered in his wife's ear.

…………

In the early morning of April 19th, Jiang Mingyue went out early. She did not go to Jinxiufang immediately, but came to Dongshi as usual.

Ever since she learned about Lin's situation, she had come here often to take care of her business. However, what Jiang Mingyue didn't expect was that she didn't see Lin today.

Seeing that the person setting up the stall was a thin young man, she asked after thinking of the Lin family's situation.

"Are you Mr. Lin?"

Lin Hanshan only glanced at her and then looked away politely.

"Well, the girl's surname is Jiang?"

Jiang Mingyue nodded.

Lin Hanshan handed her the pea cake that had been wrapped long ago.

"Thank you Miss Jiang for helping my sister find the bracelet, and thank you for taking care of my business."

Jiang Mingyue paid the money and said, "Young master Lin, you're welcome. Why didn't my aunt come today?"

"My mother-in-law had a cough, so I didn't let her come over."

"Is it serious? Can a doctor take a look at it?"

"Thank you, Miss Jiang, for your concern. I've called the doctor and taken medicine."

Jiang Mingyue nodded, thinking of the government examination he had just taken a few days ago and said, "I wish you will be on the list."

"Thank you for your good words!"

After Jiang Mingyue left, Lin Hanshan raised his head. He glanced at the girl whom his mother always praised before he looked away and concentrated on selling cakes.
