The two sat down, and An Li poured him a cup of tea, saying with a smile, "Xiao Zhou, congratulations on winning the first place in the imperial examination."
"I called you here because I wanted to ask you if you have someone who suits your taste."
As she said this, she remembered that Chu'er and Qian'er were already eighteen years old and had not yet married.
Qian'er and Hongling are in love with each other, but what about Chu'er?
I've never heard him mention that he has a girl he likes.
Jiang Xingzhou pursed his lips, thinking of the lively and lovely girl who always followed him around, and smiled slightly, saying, "Madam, Xingzhou already has someone he loves."
"She is smart, lively, kind and lovely. She is a very good girl."
At the Lantern Festival.
It was she who gave herself a meat pie, and didn't mind that it was dirty, and praised his nice name.
He remembered the first sight of her for a long time!
An Li was surprised and even more curious. Listening to the description, was it Chunhe?
Smiling, she asked curiously, "Does this lady know him? Is he your childhood sweetheart, Xiaozhou?"
In this room, Chunhe is hiding in the cupboard and eavesdropping.
"Madam, you know her. She is Miss Chunhe." Jiang Xingzhou did not hide it.
He just frowned slightly, with a bitter look on his face.
He already knew the news that his Jiang family had been vindicated and Ming Wenyong and the officials involved had been imprisoned.
But all the men, women, young and old in his Jiang family were burned to death in a fire. What’s the point of belatedly redressing their injustice?
He wants to enter the court, catch corrupt officials, and bring justice to more people who have been wronged!
However, he was alone and had nothing, so he had to stay in his benefactor's house.
He can't give happiness to the one he loves now!
I was conflicted and didn't want to delay her!
"Madam, promise Xingzhou not to tell Miss Chunhe about this." Jiang Xingzhou said with a wry smile.
"I promise you." An Li nodded without asking him why.
After chatting for a few more sentences, the wooden door suddenly creaked and opened a little.
"oops!"
Mingxin screamed in a childish voice and her little face fell to the ground.
She gave an awkward smile, her eavesdropping was discovered!
She blamed the door in her mind, saying it was not closed tightly. Then she supported herself on the ground with both hands and crawled away on both hands and feet.
That was close!
"This child..." An Li took a sip of tea and smiled.
I felt really embarrassed for my daughter.
Jiang Xingzhou also smiled with his lips pursed. He didn't feel anything, but thought it was very cute.
After closing the door, the two chatted for a while, and then Jiang Xingzhou went out.
The cabinet opened and Chunhe came out.
"It's so hot, I'm sweating all over." Chunhe picked up a feather fan and fanned her face.
An Li smiled and jokingly said, "Now that you've heard it yourself, you're relieved now, right?"
Chun He fanned her for a long time before the heat on her face dissipated. "Madam, I understand. I didn't expect that Young Master Jiang also likes me."
She thought it was a personal unrequited love.
Thinking of how good Mr. Jiang had been to her in the past, her face instantly turned red.
It's so embarrassing!
The news that Jiang Xingzhou had passed the imperial examination spread throughout the entire Yongjing City.
After learning that he was living in the General Weiyuan's Mansion, many ladies asked matchmakers to come and propose marriage to him.
Not surprisingly, they were all rejected!
Two days later, Eunuch Hai came in person to invite Jiang Xingzhou into the palace to meet the emperor.
Because of the Jiang family incident, Emperor Yongwu specially granted three mansions, a thousand taels of gold, and some cloth as compensation.
If Jiang Xingzhou is capable of taking on Jiang's father's official position, he will be allowed to take office.
In addition, Emperor Yongwu also granted him the official position of seventh rank and editor of the Hanlin Academy, and he took office on the same day.
For a moment!
He was extremely successful and became the talk of the town in Beijing.
Even the General Weiyuan’s Mansion was beaming with joy!
Now that he has a mansion, Jiang Xingzhou will move in to live in his own mansion.
However, the new house still had some things missing, so An Li asked the housekeeper to prepare them for him. He would move in once everything was ready.
He still lives in Weiyuan General's Mansion.
The new house is not far from the general's mansion, just across the street, so they can visit each other at any time.
The next day, Jiang Xingzhou took office.
Wearing official uniform, hair tied up and wearing a jade crown, he looks fresh and bright, like a handsome young man.
It looks so beautiful!
Everything is in order and moving in the right direction.
And An Li, after checking the accounts of Piaomiao Pavilion last time, decided to open another Piaomiao Tower.
Make big money!
As for Piaomiao Pavilion, it will be opened first. After Piaomiao Tower is completed and opened for business, it will sell low-end versions of the magic pills at a lower price to the people.
Poor people can also afford good medicine!
An Li acted immediately and called the owner of Piaomiao Pavilion to discuss the matter with Ming Yichu.
The three of them spent seven days drawing blueprints and looking for an address, and finally decided to locate Piaomiao Tower on Yuhe Street in the north of the city.
Yuhe Street has sparse shops, an atmosphere of traveling merchants, and a friendly atmosphere like family.
Opening a shop here is a good choice.
If you choose a place where shops are crowded with shops and pedestrians are crowded with pedestrians, it will be too noisy.
After choosing the address, there happened to be a restaurant that was going out of business and was for rent or sale.
An Li bought the restaurant directly, and on the same day, he asked the housekeeper and the servants to start cleaning and decorating.
An Li was extremely tired these days. After returning home, he drank three glasses of water in a row.
"Mother...it's so painful!"
"Xinbao... give Ni a leg massage."
Mingxin saw that her mother was so tired that she had become thinner and her face was wrinkled, and she felt very distressed.
She got up from the bamboo mat and used her chubby little hands to massage An Li.
She was very strong, and An Li felt a sharp pain when she hit him.
"Mom...are you still tired?"
