Chapter 17 It turns out he is a prince
When Jiang Xue saw that his master looked disgusted when he mentioned marrying a wife, he couldn't help but chuckled and said: "If I don't get married, why don't you let me get married?"
He felt that their father planned to turn the entire mansion into a monk temple.
Xiao Jing looked at Jiang Xue and sneered, "If you can find a woman you like, I will immediately make the decision for you to marry her back!"
Jiang Xue was in trouble, "There is not even a woman in the whole house, where can I find the woman I like?"
Xiao Jing looked at him and said, "How about I find some maids for you, or hold a blind date party for you?"
Jiang Xue hurriedly apologized and smiled, "Ha... I don't dare!"
Although their master seldom acted like a master in the house and got along with them like brothers, they still had to act appropriately. Their master didn't like having women in the house, so how could he dare to add more maids to the house! He shouldn't even think about a blind date banquet. It would be more than enough for them to hold a blind date banquet for their father.
But this doesn't seem to be what he has to worry about now. He should just keep his head down and make more meatballs and tofu fruits! After finishing a few skewers of meatballs in the bowl, he went to the front desk on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty and ordered a few skewers of meatballs, tofu, fruits and vegetables out of his own pocket.
"Sister-in-law, how do you make these meatballs? They are much more delicious than those made by the cooks in our house. Can you teach me?" Jiang Xue asked with a smile on her face.
Yuan Chu smiled, "Of course you can, how about twenty-five taels of silver for your hard work?"
Jiang Xue immediately beamed and ran to Xiao Jing happily, "Master, can you give me twenty-five taels of silver? I will learn how to make meatballs from the female shopkeeper, and I will make them for you in the future!"
"Twenty-five taels! Learn how to make meatballs!" Xiao Jing looked Jiang Xue up and down. He felt that his head must have been caught by the door, "You want to make it for yourself! Huh! If you want to learn, just pay for it yourself! I have no money!"
"You are so stingy!" Jiang Xue immediately returned to the case angrily and walked away with the bowl in hand.
Yuan Chu couldn't help laughing when he saw his back. With these twenty-five taels of tuition, you can buy as many skewered meatballs as you want. Anyone who knows how to calculate will find it not a good deal. However, if someone is willing to pay the twenty-five taels of silver to learn, she is also willing to teach.
She was busy serving the ingredients chosen by the guests when suddenly, a strange voice sounded.
"Hey, aren't you the girl from the Yuan family who was sent back to her hometown from the capital by the Yuan family, but was expelled from the clan and even refused to enter the village?" A young scholar stood in front of the desk and looked at Yuan Chuyi with a surprised face. !
Yuan Chuyi looked at the young scholar coldly and asked in a cold voice, "Does who I am have anything to do with you coming to my place to eat? If you don't want to eat, you can leave!"
Scholar Liu Yu'an blushed with embarrassment and hurriedly bowed and apologized, "Sorry, I'm rude, young man! I, I'll give you two skewers of meatballs, two skewers of tofu, and two skewers of cabbage."
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he quickly served him the skewers and put them on the stage, then called the next guest. He saw a series of scholars behind him, all wearing Confucian clothes. They were polite and courteous in their dealings with others.
At the beginning of the Yuan Dynasty, when I saw the scholars uniformly dressed, I guessed which academy they should be students from. She thought that she would also send Shiliu to a private school in spring, so she asked them which private school in the city was the best.
Unexpectedly, several students unanimously recommended the Yuanjia Academy in Yuanjiawan, saying that the Yuanjia Academy not only produced Mr. Yuan Da, who was second in the high school more than 30 years ago and became a Hanlin bachelor, but also produced more than a dozen scholars, Two examples. The scholar who was engrossed in eating at the side knew the connection between Yuanchu Yi and Yuanjiawan, so he hurriedly pulled some of their students away and said to Yuanchu:
"Ms. Yuan, if you want to find a school for your younger brother, why not go to the Mingde School in the city? The teachers at the school are very knowledgeable and many of the students they have taught have passed the college examinations. However, the requirements and fees are a bit high. !”
The student who was taken away by Liu Yu'an was immediately dissatisfied, "Hey, Brother Jiang, you know that the cost is high and you recommended it to the female shopkeeper. Wouldn't it be better to go to Yuanjia Academy? The government subsidizes the fees there!"
Liu Yu'an apologized to Yuan Chuyi and said, "I'm sorry, my brother doesn't understand the situation!"
Yuan Chuyi had a good impression of this student. At least he didn't look at her through colored glasses. Such people were quite rare.
"Thank you! What is your name?"
Liu Yu'an's face turned red, "My surname is Liu and my first name is Yu'an."
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he gave him two skewers of meatballs as a thank you. The other students were envious when they saw this, and asked him why he knew the female shopkeeper, but Liu Yu'an refused to tell him.
"Brother Liu, is there some dirty secret between you and the female shopkeeper?" The students all cheered and joked, "I just heard you call her Mrs. Yuan. Could it be that she is your little childhood sweetheart!"
Liu Yu'an blushed with anger, "Brothers, please don't talk nonsense. This Madam Yuan is a miserable person! Don't make random arrangements with her!"
Several students could tell from Liu Yuan's words that Yuan Chuyi was a man with stories, and they even insisted on telling him.
Liu Yu'an sighed and said, "Ms. Yuan was sent back from the capital, but the village and the Yuan family couldn't tolerate her. Not only did they remove her from the family tree, they even let her in the village."
"Why is this?"
Several students asked questions one after another.
Liu Yu'an was a little angry, "Brothers and gentlemen, we are all scholars, so don't make unreasonable comments about others! Just know that Mrs. Yuan is a miserable person!"
Everyone saw that he refused to say anything and had no choice but to give up. One student seemed to have thought of something, with a sneer on his face, "I guess this girl from the Yuan family must have done something shameful, otherwise the family would not have removed her. Doesn't Yuan Honghao think of himself as noble? I If you ask him about this, he will be embarrassed! Hahaha..."
Xiao Jing's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he heard this, and he said loudly: "To trample on a woman's reputation for your own personal gain is the behavior of a villain, not a gentleman!"
When the scholar heard this, he immediately flew into a rage. He stood up and turned to Xiao Jing, "What do you care about me..."
He Wenhao, a student with fine features and fine features on the side, recognized Xiao Jing who was sitting there calmly and calmly. His expression changed involuntarily. He hurriedly grabbed the scholar who was angrily wanting to fight. He quickly stood up and bent down in front of Xiao Jing to bow.
"I didn't know that the prince was here, so I was rude and disturbed the prince. Please forgive me!"
"Your Majesty!" Upon hearing this, several other students hurriedly stood up and went to Xiao Jing to salute and bow.
Xiao Jing ate the sour radish leisurely and looked at He Wenhao lightly, "Master He, I haven't seen you for a long time. I wonder how Mr. He is doing lately?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Father is well!"
He Wenhao is the son of the prefect He Yutang.
"I would like to say hello to Mr. He on behalf of the king. After I have finished my official duties, I will definitely pay a visit to my residence next time I come back!"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Xiaosheng and my father are always waiting for Your Majesty to come to my humble residence!"
He Wenhao was polite and courteous to Xiao Jing.
