Chapter 566: Meng Bujiu Returns
People around looked at her.
"Hey, this is the county magistrate's adopted daughter, right? She's so pretty. She looks only about ten years old, but she's already so pretty. What will she be like when she grows up?"
"What? Isn't the third place winner in front of me her brother? Wow, he's really enviable. I heard that the county magistrate was going to be transferred, and I was thinking that the new county magistrate might suppress the Jiang family. But the county magistrate's son suddenly became the third place winner. Who dares to bully the Jiang family now?"
"The third place winner will be an official in the imperial city. Even if the new county magistrate is crazy, he knows to please the Jiang family. How dare he bully them? Tsk tsk, I'm afraid the Jiang family's good days will have to continue."
"Hey, look at her fate, and then look at us. If we become godparents, we will have someone to protect us for the rest of our lives. It looks like she will get married in a few years. Her future husband's family will definitely treat her like an ancestor and worship her. She will truly live a happy life."
"Women live more freely than men, have you forgotten? She even opened a clinic. In this world, how can a female doctor open a clinic? Isn't it because the county magistrate protects her? If this happened in another county, I'm afraid she would be drowned in the saliva of the world."
"It's a pity that my family doesn't have a son of the right age, otherwise I would really like to get engaged to the Jiang family. The young lady of the Jiang family is so pretty, talented, and has the reputation of a little miracle doctor. If there is a headache or a fever in the family, there is no need to see a doctor, which saves a lot of money. What's more, the Jiang family has the protection of the county magistrate and the third place winner. Whoever marries the young lady of the Jiang family will have a smooth career in the future."
"What are you thinking? Even if you have a son of the right age, he is not good enough for me. Look at you and your wife, your face is like a big plate, and your body is like a wild boar. Is your son famous or handsome? Tsk tsk, Miss Jiang is not blind."
"you--"
"Okay, okay, stop arguing. Look, the third place winner is so handsome. I met him in town before, but I didn't think he was so handsome. It's really strange, how come his appearance changed after he became the third place winner..."
"......"
The people around him not only looked at Jiang Fubao, but also whispered to each other.
Jiang Fubao could of course hear it, but she didn't care.
I haven't seen Brother Bujiu for a long time.
Looks a lot thinner.
She squeezed out of the crowd.
Meng Bujiu opened his arms out of habit, then quickly lowered them. His originally cold facial features softened when he saw Jiang Fubao.
"Fubao, brother is back." he said.
"Brother Bujiu, you are amazing. You got the third place in the imperial examination!" Jiang Fubao was very happy.
This is the third place in the imperial examination.
I had only seen it on TV and in books before.
Such a powerful person actually appeared next to her, and he was her brother.
"Brother Bujiu, come here, I have something to ask you." Suddenly thinking of something, Jiang Fubao pulled Meng Bujiu's sleeve and walked to the side, asking in a low voice.
"What's the matter?" Meng Bujiu was stunned.
"You won the third place in the imperial examination, but didn't the emperor give you a marriage? Or, was there no one to choose a son-in-law from the list?"
Jiang Fubao's face was full of gossip, she raised her eyebrows and looked up and said.
"Someone really did catch him, but he ran fast." Lingshan on the side answered first.
"Why are you running? Anyone who dares to catch a son-in-law is no less than a fifth-rank official. What if I find you a beautiful wife? Wouldn't you be so happy?"
Kong Mingxue also interjected.
"Okay, then you go take the exam next time. Remember not to run away when the results are announced. If you run away, I will look down on you," Meng Bujiu glared at Kong Mingxue.
"No, we still have to run. I have something on my mind... Uh, cough, cough, it's nothing. Let's go back quickly. There are too many people here. They look at us like monkeys. It's really uncomfortable."
Kong Mingxue almost let the cat out of the bag. He pretended to cough twice and then ran away.
"Fubao, this kid has a lover while I'm away?" Seeing Kong Ming's lustful expression, Meng Bujiu was surprised.
"Well, yes, but he thinks no one knows about it. What a fool." Jiang Fubao looked at Kong Mingxue's back and chuckled.
"Who is it?" Meng Bujiu raised his eyebrows and continued to ask.
The brother and sister walked side by side, with Lingshan following behind.
The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
"My elder sister." These three simple words shocked Meng Bujiu. He stopped in his tracks and his eyes widened.
"This kid is just eating grass near his nest!"
Meng Bujiu never thought that Kong Mingxue actually fell in love with Jiang Wangyou.
"Tsk, the window paper hasn't been broken yet, Brother Bujiu, please don't tell anyone else." Jiang Fubao put his index finger to his mouth and looked around.
I was afraid that someone at home might be here.
You know, Lianshan Town is so small that you can meet acquaintances everywhere.
"I'm the most strict with my mouth." Meng Bujiu was amused by Jiang Fubao's expression.
Chatting all the way.
The brother and sister came to Sanshan School.
That day, Jiang Fubao didn't even go to the clinic and stayed at Dong's house the whole time.
But Kong Mingxue, who left earlier, went to Youran Embroidery Shop.
"Sir, what would you like to see..." Jiang Wangyou, who was arranging embroidery, heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and asked with a smile.
But the next moment he stood there in a daze.
"I'm back." Kong Mingxue's voice sounded a little nervous, but with a hint of excitement.
"Well, you're glad to be back. Brother Kong, did you not get enough rest after the long journey? You look thinner." Jiang Wangyou's eyes were as bright as stars in the night.
But she had a blank expression on her face, only the slightly pink tips of her ears revealed her happiness.
"Have I lost weight? Not bad, at least I'm not hungry. By the way, I brought you a gift from this trip to Yanyun Province. It seems suitable for you. Try it on." Kong Mingxue couldn't wait to take out the butterfly and orchid hairpin from his chest.
There are two lavender gradient butterflies, one on the left and one on the right, perched on the milky white orchid. They look lifelike, as if a blooming orchid was really picked.
"No, how can I accept your gift, I..." Jiang Wangyou was halfway through his words when a customer came to the shop.
Kong Mingxue simply put the hairpin on the table and ran away.
This time you have to accept it even if you don’t want to.
"Hey, Manager Jiang, are you selling jewelry in your shop? How much is this hairpin? It's so pretty." The customer was a regular. She picked up the hairpin, looked at it from left to right, and loved it very much.
I even want to try it on.
"I'm really sorry, this is my hairpin, I'm not selling it." Jiang Wangyou shook her head. She stretched out her hand, and the customer had to return the hairpin to her.
Fearing that the customer might get angry, Jiang Wangyou simply looked in the mirror and inserted the hairpin directly into her bun.
It really suits her.
The simple and elegant hairpin makes her temperament even more noble and peaceful. With every move she makes, the orchid in her hair seems to have been cultivated for thousands of years and transformed into a human form.
