Chapter 171: Bo has a family fortune

Shang Jingyu was a little surprised.

As a prince, although he is not doing his job properly, he is not as famous as the prince, and the eldest brother is so famous that people look up to him.

But just because he is not doing his job properly, he is still somewhat famous in the market.

The mother and daughter who were rescued earlier recognized him, but they were aware of his temper and did not dare to come over to greet him. How come the old man in front of him, who looked so airy and airy, did not look like an ignorant person, but he really didn’t know who is he?
Either he just came to the capital not long ago, or he, Shang Jingyu, is not famous enough.

Well, the scholars who participated in the Spring Festival?This identity is quite new.

Shang Jingyu smiled and said: "That's right. The old man recognized it at a glance. It's really amazing!"

Mrs. Pei's smile was warm and kind, and she said: "Good boy, there is a Zhuangyuan Building over there. I heard that if you go to eat there, you can win the No. [-] Scholarship. I invite Mr. Jing to have a meal at the Zhuangyuan Building. How about thanking him?"

Shang Jingyu: "..."

The old man in front of him doesn't know him, so he can talk freely, but that's not possible when he goes to Zhuangyuan Tower. Someone must know him, so how can he experience the normal happiness of being an ordinary scholar?
He shook his head and said: "How expensive is the Zhuangyuan Building? A meal costs dozens of taels! Then forget it, we can't let the old man spend so much money."

Mrs. Pei knows that Zhuangyuanlou is not cheap, especially at this time, when there are many scholars who want to ask for praise, but it is not the first time she has entered the capital. Not to mention a meal at Zhuangyuanlou, but ten meals and twenty meals. Not a problem either.

She was just about to say that she had made up her mind, but when she moved her feet, she felt an excruciating pain in her ankles.

She had sprained her foot just now, but the thrill of the carriage's arrival made her forget it for a moment. But now, when the pain was touched, her face suddenly changed slightly.

Seeing her painful expression, Shang Jingyu hurriedly asked, "Is the old man injured?"

"No, it's just a sprain!"

"Then I'll take you to the hospital!" He said and came to help her.

Mrs. Pei said hurriedly: "I dare not trouble Mr. Jing."

Shang Jingyu said: "You're welcome, old man, just treat me as a junior!" After saying that, he couldn't help but help the old lady go to the hospital.Two senior attendants came to help him, but he didn't let him go.

Mrs. Pei's ankle sprain was not serious. The hospital gave her some medicine and told her to move as little as possible in the past two days. She also got some ointment.

Shang Jingyu said: "Let me send the old man back!"

Mrs. Pei said hurriedly: "I dare not bother you. Mr. Jing has already helped me twice. How can I delay your business again?"

What business does Shang Jingyu have?His main business is eating, drinking and having fun. Now he has a new identity... a scholar, which is new and exciting.

He smiled and said: "Old man, helping others is the behavior of a gentleman. The sage said, disciples will be filial when they enter, and they will be jealous when they leave. Be sincere and trustworthy, love everyone, and be kind. If you have more ability to do, study literature. Any good deeds, They are all to help virtue. Spring is still early, and I am not in a hurry. There is nothing serious to delay, so please relax, old man!"

Mrs. Pei couldn't help but smile when she heard him speak these words in a gentle manner. Her feet were really hurting, and she was still some distance away from the carriage. She didn't bring Jin Hai and Jin He with her today. This young man was handsome, polite, and as gentle as jade. He is kind and a good young man.

Shang Jingyu personally helped the old lady get into the carriage.

Mrs. Pei said: "If Mr. Jing doesn't give up, why don't you go to Lao Shen's place for a quick meal?"

"Wouldn't it be too disturbing?"

"How could it be? I usually live alone and have a granddaughter who comes back to stay with me occasionally. It's too late for me to be happy to have young people come as guests and add some excitement! Mr. Jing is a scholar and elegant, and he will definitely have a good reputation in the spring. , I am also a bit of a gentleman!"

With this appearance and appearance, standing together with Lan'er, they are truly a perfect match.Shang Jingyu was very happy to hear this, so he just said, he is actually very outstanding. If you meet an old man on the road, you must have a discerning eye to see that he is extraordinary.

Should he also take the exam next time?After all, he also came from Confucianism in the study room. Isn't it easy to take the imperial examination?
Chang Suijiang met Jinyong: "..."

My master seems to be addicted to playing pretend. Looking at his happy face and his eyes shining, he seems to have the intention to follow the old man's words and never go back.

Shang Jingyu got into Mrs. Pei's carriage. Fortunately, the carriage was wide enough. Even though the old lady's master and servants were sitting there, plus Shang Jingyu, it was not too crowded.

Jiang Yu and Jin Yong could only walk.

On the way, Mrs. Pei talked to Shang Jingyu, and Shang Jingyu responded with a smile.

Mrs. Pei looked at Shang Jingyu again, and she felt that the more she looked at him, the more she liked him. With his conversation and demeanor, he might be on the list next spring.

This place is not far from Mallow Fang where Mrs. Pei lives. Seeing the old lady's carriage stop in front of a house, Shang Jing took a look at it and his eyes were a little dark as he got off the carriage.

Something looks familiar here.

Isn't this the property of Taifu Ye's house?
Isn't this old man the niece's grandmother?
Did the old man just mention that he has a granddaughter?

And this old man, there seems to be some kind of kindness in his eyes. Which junior is she looking at through him?Shang Jingyu, who had nothing to do, felt that it was more fun.

Mrs. Pei warmly invited Shang Jingyu into the house.

Shang Jingyu Congshan Ruliu, holding a folding fan in one hand, entered the door gracefully.

After sitting down, Mrs. Pei started chatting with Shang Jingyu again. She asked, "Where is Mr. Jing from?"

"Linzhou!" The capital city belongs to Linzhou. Isn't he lying?
"Oh, judging by Mr. Jing's style, does he come from a noble family?"

"Forget it, but it's just a small amount of assets, so it's not worth mentioning!" It's so small, it's just the whole Shang Qi; it's not worth mentioning, because if you mention it to others, they won't treat him as an ordinary person.

Mrs. Pei nodded with deep understanding. She once thought that the Zhou family in the North was a very powerful family, but when they arrived in the capital, in comparison, the Zhou family was not worth mentioning.

She asked gently: "Young Master Jing must have already married?"

"To tell you the truth, I have been focusing on studying these years and have not thought about this matter! After all, if I have not achieved fame, won't it delay a girl from a good family?"

Jiang Yu, who was standing on one side: "..."

The master didn’t know how many times he had to deal with the person who sneaked into bed, drugged him, and threw himself into his arms, or made fun of him while he focused on studying?The master is really good at making stuff up.

But with his appearance and demeanor, his words are quite credible.

Mrs. Pei said happily: "Master Jing is a good boy who is clean and responsible!"

Shang Jingyu was also very happy. Look, the old man can talk.

He said: "The old man lives alone? Where are your children and grandchildren?"

A trace of sorrow flashed deep in Mrs. Pei's eyes, and she said: "I once had a grandson who was about the same age as you. He was both civilized and martial, and he was also very outstanding. However, something happened to him..."
