Chapter 190 The day of the garden, the distinguished guests come

As Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, Songming Mountain still looks like a quiet mountain village in the past, but the families make mooncakes, slaughter ducks, pickle osmanthus, and even good villagers catch baskets of crabs. [Even Wang Xiaoguanren, who has been tortured for several days, faced with the festival, he finally recalled that he returned home not just to achieve both civil and military achievements. He also brought a bag of pepper powder and a bag of pepper seeds during this trip, and wanted to find a place to plant it. After taking a loophole, he explained the work to Wang Qizheng and importantly.

Even though he had planted this thing in a flowerpot in his previous life, he still didn't have much foundation when he told Wang Qi to try it. As for the bag of minced peppers, he directly asked Wang Qi's sister-in-law to add vegetables to him.

Whether it is Mr. Ke or Mr. Fang, they are all the types of people who can't even get back if they determine a goal. So in recent days, Ye Xiaopang, Wang Wujing, Jin Bao and Qiu Feng have to deal with one, and Wang Fulin has to deal with one by one. After three days of intensive counseling by Mr. Ke, he was also Mr. Fang's eight-legged intensive class. He simply felt that during the Ming Dynasty scholars' hard work in the imperial examination, his whole life was gray.

To the words of Master Li as an assistant teacher, who made him lose his memory after the attack before? Moreover, because his performance was too outstanding, Wang Daokun, Ye Junyao and Feng had already booked him a place for the student, and it would be embarrassing to not be able to pass the exam every year? Although Master Feng is so happy with him now that he can wear a pair of pants, a county school teacher is just a matter of exam every year, and it is impossible to say anything about the exam every year.

It was precisely because of this that he was shocked that even the exam was in the hands of the great master of Tixue. So he had to taste the bitter wine he had made from jumping up and down. He enjoyed the super luxurious treatment of the special training class of the exam - Mr. Li is a juren. Ke Fang and two of them were at least juren, otherwise they would not have talked about the pros and cons of the provincial examination, and they did not think that the attitude of those who passed the exam was surprising. And the three juren are now surrounding him, a young scholar and four little guys who are not even a child!

As the Mid-Autumn Festival was about to turn, Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei came forward and tried to persuade Mr. Ke and Mr. Fang. Everyone finally got a rare rest for two days.

Now, let alone the little guys breathed a sigh of relief. Even Wang Fulin felt that he had been alive. Wang Xiaomei was so embarrassed that she had heard that the Wu family orchard in Xixinan was the most beautiful. Can she go and see the scenery? He thought that he had basically not taken his two sisters out during the days when he went to the city to return home. He immediately agreed and crossed the river with a thick face to ask in person. Fortunately, the owner of the orchard was Wang Daokun's friend and his in-laws. He agreed readily and invited Wang Fulin to bring all the hosts and guests of the home, including Mr. Ke and Mr. Fang. Wang Fulin simply brought Wang Wujing with him.

However, Ke Fang and the other two were not interested in the rich gardens, but were very interested in Qi Liang. They took Master Li to accompany him and the four of them went to climb Songming Mountain together. Even so, Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei, who had long admired the many garden scenery in Xixinan, were overjoyed. But Ye Xiaopang certainly would not follow him to climb the mountain, and followed Wang Fulin and others to the orchard together. In his opinion, this was to release the news, rather than to continue studying in another place.

Although he had entered Wangdao Kunsong Garden before, it was a sign of congratulations to Mr. Nanming on behalf of his father, and he could only take a quick look at the flowers everywhere. The Wu family orchard in Xixinan is half larger than the Song Garden, and Wu Shoujun personally served as a guide. The little guy only felt feasting his eyes. He pulled Jin Bao and Qiu Feng with excitement along the way, muttering, and seeing everything was novel.

Qiu Feng vaguely felt that Ye Xiaopang's family was also quite rich after spending so many days together, and immediately asked in a low voice: "I heard that the Jiangnan water town has the most gardens. This Wu family orchard was designed by Zhu Zhishan and Zhu Dazi back then. Are you not a real Jiangnan native? Why do you still feel novel?"

"Ningbo is not Suzhou." Ye Xiaopang shrugged, and saw Wang Wujing following Wang Fulin in accordance with the rules. On the contrary, Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei were behind with Lian Qiao. At this moment, the three of them were talking under a flower tree. He sighed and said, "Although my family is quite rich, the house is an old house and the family has a large population. If my mother hadn't been powerful, she might have been plotted by those uncles and uncles. Besides, Ningbo Mansion is rich, but not as famous as Yangzhou, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Yangzhou, Hangzhou, so there are not many famous gardens. Moreover, you know my father's temperament, I wouldn't even think of visiting such a place."

Jin Bao is now very close to Ye Xiaopang, and at this moment he can't help but interrupt and ask, "Where is your mother's family?"

"My mother?" Ye Mingzhao tilted his head and finally coughed, "My mother's family has a small population, but my grandfather was doing business in the south and was not at home all year round. She helped my grandmother manage the family's affairs since she was a child, which is amazing! Even now, my grandmother never talks to my mother because the one or two thousand acres of paddy fields in the house are not well located, and all the tenants are troublemakers. If it weren't for my mother, those tenants would have rebelled long ago!"

Jin Bao suddenly widened his eyes: "What should you do at Ningbo's family when your mother comes out this time?"

"I didn't know, but my sister said that my mother probably saw that her sister-in-law was trusting and enthusiastic about her grandmother, so she asked them to taste what a hot potato was!"

Not only did Jin Bao and Qiu Feng hear this, but even Wang Fulin, who was only a few steps away from behind, could hear it clearly. Seeing that Wu Shouzhun was also on the side, he had a subtle expression, but tried his best to pretend that nothing happened. He couldn't help but feel deeply curious about this wife Ye County Zun. The next garden had been visited twice, once, and once, he was here with a group of old men such as Qi Liang for one night. Naturally, he was not as enthusiastic as others. As lunch approached, everyone was tired of walking around. Wu Shouzhun was about to take everyone back to the flower hall for meals, but a girl hurried over.

"Young Master, someone from Songmingshan Village sent a message, saying that he was looking for Mr. Wang."

"Look for me?" Wang Fulin hurried forward, "What's the matter?"

The girl thought of the information from the outside news, and she couldn't help but glance at Wang Fulin more, and then she said respectfully: "The second master of the Xu family on Doushan Street and the wife of Ye County Zun are here, so I send you a message to go back quickly."

As soon as these words were said, let alone Wang Fulin was as stupid as a chicken, even Wu Shouzhun, who was used to seeing big scenes, was shocked. The Xu family on Doushan Street came from Xu Village, but they had made a fortune in the past few years. Cheng Naixuan, the father of Cheng Naixuan, who was close to Wang Fulin, was called Cheng Xu. In addition, the Wang family, Wang, Cheng and Xu, who have always been famous in Lianghuai Salt Industry, are definitely not just talking about it. Of course, these three surnames also include other salt merchants with the same surname as Wang, Cheng and Xu among the other five counties. As for Ye County Zun, although he is not as powerful as the local tyrants, he finally occupies the title of his parents. Moreover, the wife has never heard of it before. Could it be that she just arrived?

"What, my mother is here?" Ye Xiaopang's face, which was still cheerful just now, suddenly collapsed. He hurriedly grabbed Jinbao with one hand and Qiu Feng with the other, and said nervously, "You have to testify to me. I have been working hard recently and have never been lazy."

Before Wang Fulin could speak, Wu Shouzhun changed his mind and immediately said with a smile: "Since we are all here, it's a fate. Why not invite two distinguished guests to the orchard to linger for a while?"

But at this moment, Wang Wujing, who was a normal person along the way, suddenly spoke: "Dear guests came to Songming Mountain. We have not yet fulfilled our friendship as a landlord. How can we disturb the owner of the orchard and Brother Wu Shi?"

Wu Shoujun realized that the future owner of Songyuan was standing here, and he was suddenly embarrassed. At this time, Wang Fulin, who had just been shocked by the two sudden guests, quickly beat him up: "I originally planned to disturb Brother Wu Shi, but I didn't expect that there would be such a coincidence that there would be a distinguished guest on the door. Although he was caught off guard, just like Wu Jing said, the friendship of the landlords was always unreasonable. If Mrs. Ye County Zun and Mr. Xu Er had to linger for a while, what would I recommend? I am really sorry today, it's all because I was not thoughtful enough."

"Where is the difference between me, that's true."

Wu Shouzhun readily sent the group outside the orchard gate. Seeing that they had left in a hurry, he called a servant and ordered: "Go to Songming Mountain to see how many people have come to the Xu family and the Ye family, and find out what they are here for."

When Wang Fulin rushed back to his home, there were many cars and horses parked at the door of the old house, and there were 10 to 20 followers alone. When he thought that his small house had welcomed a group of people with extraordinary identities in recent days, Wang Fulin felt that the house was a little small for the first time. Although he didn't understand that when his family was well-off, his father had always lived in the ancestral house in the city, so he had never repaired the old house in the village, and it was still the same as that ancestral house. It was originally sold and paid off his debts in Songmingshan. Anyway, when Wang Qi reported the place where the two guests were placed, he could not hide it at all.

Because it was just a two-entry yard, Mrs. Ye County Zun was invited to the room of Wang Erniang and Wang Xiaomei in the inner courtyard. Wang Fulin gave Ye Xiaopang a wink and sent Ye Xiaopang to accompany him. As for the second master Xu, he was placed in the hall in front of him to serve tea. Because Lian Qiao was not there, there was not even a girl serving him at home. It was Wang Qi's wife who personally served the tea and water. When Wang Qi's wife talked about this to Wang Fulin, she was still a little scared.

"That Master Xu Er has a stern face. Could it be that he came to ask for punishment, right?"

Wang Fulin was not too worried about what Mrs. Ye County is here to do, because with a smart daughter like Ye Mingyue, even if she is a mother, it would not be unreasonable. But after Mr. Xu came to the door, he felt a little unhappy. So he folded his mood and expression and stepped into his own hall without being humble or arrogant.

As soon as he met, he felt that the four words Wang Qi described as provoking a military officer were not speculations, because at this time, the look of Master Xu Er looked at him showed deep pickiness and scrutiny, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

"Mr. Wang Xiaoguan." Seeing Wang Fulin bowing and showing his blessing, Mr. Xu raised his eyebrows and said lightly, "I came to give the Mid-Autumn Festival gift on my mother's order. Of course, I also want to see who can make my mother feel heartbroken and move my little girl!"
