Chapter 313: Being too clever

Let’s talk about Longmen County at this time.

After seeing off the elder, Liang Ruoxu chatted with Yan Shenjue with a smile: "Before leaving, Master was still talking about whether to formally accept you as a disciple, or simply accept you as an adopted son...but he couldn't make up his mind, so he thought he would wait until you go to the capital in the future."

Yan Shenjue just nodded.

Actually, pretending to be uncle and nephew was just for convenience. Now he hasn't even officially become a disciple, and in the future... he doesn't know what to do.

Liang Ruoxu added: "Master will definitely be able to return to the court when he returns this time. Where do you think the emperor will place Master?"

Yan Shenjue had a calm expression, not caring, and did not answer. Liang Ruoxu continued, "He will definitely be able to crush that guy to death. After all, the emperor probably doesn't want to endure it anymore, and is just waiting for Master to hand over the knife. I wonder... when he is at the end of his rope, will he reveal Uncle Qingshan's true identity?"

Yan Shenjue really started to take it seriously, and raised his eyes to ask him, "Who do you think the uncle could be? I just can't think of it."

Liang Ruoxu stopped laughing and said softly, "I dare not think about it, I dare not think about it!!"

Seeing that there was no one around, he moved closer to him and said in a low voice: "Before leaving, Master repeatedly reminded me to treat the Tang family and Xinbao well. I guess Master must have thought of something."

Yan Shenjue: “…”

He looked at him and asked, "Master, are you talking about treating the Tang family and Xinbao well?"

Liang Ruoxu nodded with a serious expression.

Master clearly said to treat Xinbao and the Tang family well!! Xinbao is the most important!! He was there! He heard it with his own ears!

Brother, this is a case of being too clever for one's own good! Yan Shenjue hummed, said nothing, and stood up and left.

The next day, the second brother continued to study hard for the exam.

Tang Qingshan returned to Yutang Village the next day.

He is always very organized in doing things. He has planned what to do in each time period. He cannot stay here for long. Sending him to take the exam for one day is already very fatherly. He still has a lot of things to do when he returns.

He built the workshop and harvested peanuts at the same time, and he guided the people on both sides step by step.

The workshop is not a house. The main structure is just a big shed which can be built quickly and production can begin once it is completed.

By the time most people were brought out, it was already March, and we were going to start planting fruit trees on the cleared hills.

Tang Qingshan originally planned to leave all matters concerning the fruit trees to the Lin family.

Because this is a simple and long-term job, the Lin family may be nothing in the underworld, but in the countryside, their kung fu is enough to protect themselves, whether against people or in the mountains. After all, this is just the outer mountains and there are no big wild beasts.

In his plan, the 500 acres of fertile land granted by the emperor were not originally there, but now there are suddenly so many more fertile fields, and someone is needed to manage them.

The Lin family is also suitable for this matter. Letting them manage the farm will be more comfortable than taking care of fruit trees.

Then he would have to find a way to find the right person to take care of the fruit trees, or see if the Lin family likes it and then separate them.

Once he has taken charge of all three places, it is equivalent to him becoming the "boss" of these three places. Someone will take care of them and someone will carry out daily management. He only needs to keep the general direction and wait to collect the money. This is the way to expand business, rather than doing everything personally.

Even before, this arrangement was enough, not to mention that now that he had the identity of a "county earl", he didn't have to worry about anything.

Tang Qingshan and Tang Si Ge were very busy.

Only Xinbao and Yan Shenjue stayed to accompany their second brother to take the exam.

Xinbao insisted that a 14 or 15-year-old boy must have someone accompany him to take the imperial examination for the first time, and he should not be left alone to face the storm, so she sent her second brother to the examination room in the morning, then came back to take a nap, and picked him up from the examination room in the afternoon...

Because I booked the same private room every time, I became friends with a fat old man next door.

Their room had the best view, facing directly downwards. They booked it for five days straight away, all five trials were booked. The old man was unable to book it every time he wanted, so he couldn't help but strike up a conversation with them.

The old man said his surname was Qiu, and his name was very straightforward, Qiu Jinduo. He was a businessman, cheerful, kind-hearted and fat. He was playing with two big walnuts in his hands, and Xinbao's chubby hands were playing with the Shengong ball... The old man and the child were each playing with their own things and chatting in a very speculative manner.

What a coincidence, this time, the second elder brother and his son actually came out together, and after coming up, they greeted each other.

His son's name was Qiu Haochen, a gentle and well-behaved boy who was only sixteen years old.

Xinbao took a look and found that Qiu Haochen was exactly one of the two people she had predicted, the one whose pen was broken.

When Qiu Haochen heard the second brother Tang's name, his eyes couldn't help but flash.

After all, even if they didn’t know it before, after the main event, everyone would ask each other, who is this number one? Who is he?

Then you will know that he is the disciple of Lord Jingxing and the junior brother of Lord County Master.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Qiu Haochen was a careful person. He noticed that the brush had been replaced. At first he didn't know why. Later, he heard that someone was causing trouble and Yan Qi and others were arrested by the county government. Liang Ruoxu did not announce the details to the public. After all, it would be unpleasant to be involved in such things.

But when the commotion broke out outside the Imperial Examination Hall, with people snatching and throwing pens, many people heard about it.

At that time, Qiu Haochen associated the matter of changing the pen with this incident, and then he slowly recalled when his pen was changed...

He was studying at Wenyuan Academy in his county, and the dormitory he lived in was shared by six people. There was a table in front of the couch, and pens and ink were usually placed on the table. He noticed that the pen had been changed, but it was almost time for the imperial examination, so he just thought that someone else had taken it by mistake. After asking a few times and finding no one knew, he packed up and went home.

But the county government did not call him for questioning, so he could only wonder in his heart. When he thought back, he realized that Yan Qi had indeed been to their cell that day.

So I feel a little scared for some reason.

But after all, they were not familiar with each other yet, so Qiu Haochen didn't dare to ask them.

The two families rested for a while and then went back to their respective homes.

However, Qiu Haochen has a father who is very friendly.

So the next time he came out, he found that his father was sitting with others again...

Mr. Qiu sells honey and has a apiary at home. At that time, beekeepers needed a beekeeper to carry the beehives everywhere. They were really "chasing flowers and collecting honey". They traveled all over the world. The honey they collected was usually rapeseed honey, locust flower honey, jujube flower honey, wolfberry honey... It was very hard work along the way.

Xinbao wanted to plant fruit trees and was quite interested in this, so he asked him for advice seriously. The old and the young got along very well and decided to have dinner together in the evening.

So the son who had no say, and his brother who also had little say, could only eat along, and the two of them started chatting.

Qiu Haochen is shy and gentle, but he is quite knowledgeable. The more they talk, the more they get along.

Soon it was time for the last game.

Xinbao would go home for a nap in the morning and would not come back until he woke up from his nap, so it was agreed in advance that Father-in-law Qiu could wait in their room.

When Xinbao arrived, he saw two large jars of honey on the table. Mr. Qiu waved at him, "Xinbao, come quickly! Uncle brought you some honey!"
