Chapter 2 Li Juren

The Anyuan Marquis Mansion started out as a military general, and was not favored by the literati. The old Marquis died in battle just after receiving the title and reward. Now Anyuan Marquis is obsessed with lingering in brothels. The Marquis Mansion has a shallow background and a notorious reputation. In such a situation Under such circumstances, all scholars with some reputation would shy away from the Marquis Mansion.

Therefore, if you want to hire a good gentleman, you have to lower your attitude.

But the old lady didn't understand this. She only knew how to use money to give him hundreds and thousands of taels of silver. Actually, many scholars came to the door. When the old lady saw one of them, she directly hired him without saying a word.

But Jiang Fuyue believes that a teacher's character is as important as his knowledge. The gentleman invited by the old lady is purely for money. I heard that he is still publicizing that he has access to the Hou Mansion, so as to make a lot of money. , how can such a character be a teacher?
She remembered that she had a close friend who married into a scholarly family, so she brought a gift to her door to ask for help, and asked her close friend to help them connect. After several lobbying efforts, she finally invited the gentleman from the family school to come out.

This gentleman was far from being comparable in terms of knowledge or character, but the old lady didn't care about this. She only felt that her move was disobedient to her elders. Although she kept the gentleman, she also treated her cruelly. He was severely punished.

She used to feel that even if she offended the old lady, for the future of her children, no matter how the old lady punished her, it would be worth it.

But she was wrong.

In her previous life, the children whom she loved sincerely thought she was strict and resented her deeply. Instead, they admired Marquis Anyuan's bohemian style.

In this case, she didn't have to bother.

"Yes," Jiang Fuyue agreed simply, "My daughter-in-law will go tomorrow."

Seeing that she was obedient, the old lady's tone softened a little: "I have already prepared the gift list. You don't have to worry about it. You are tired too. Go back and have a good rest today. Just send it over tomorrow."

Facing the old lady's sudden concern, Jiang Fuyue's heart moved slightly, but her face remained calm: "Yes, my daughter-in-law is resigning."

"Go."

Looking at Jiang Fuyue's leaving figure, the old lady sneered: "If her father hadn't begged me, how could I have let Yi'er let so many noble girls go and not marry her, just a sixth-grade official?" Becoming the official wife of the Hou Mansion? But look at her, she has only been married for three years, and she dares to contradict me! "

Liu's mother quickly spoke to comfort her: "Isn't it easy to deal with a junior? But right now, the most important thing is for the two young masters to educate themselves! That Li Juren has a weird temper and is very arrogant, so we, the master of the Hou Mansion, must bring generous gifts in person. Go and greet me, you can’t go in person for such a shameful thing, right?”

The old lady thought for a while and snorted heavily: "That's right, let her be proud for a few more days!"

"That's exactly what you said!" Mother Liu said with a smile, "Madam, please drink your tea quickly, it will get cold soon!"

The old lady doesn't know how to taste tea. She sipped it for a while and couldn't taste anything special, so she just drank it like plain water.

A trace of regret flashed in Liu's mother's eyes.

-

At the beginning of the next day, Jiang Fuyue left the Hou Mansion on time with gifts.

There were six large boxes, carried by twelve people, with gongs beating in the front and drums behind them. The sound was huge and attracted countless eyes along the way.

In the carriage, Gu Yu covered her face and said in a low voice: "Madam, do we have to make the battle so big..."

This isn't like inviting a husband, it's more like welcoming a bride!
Jiang Fuyue lifted the curtain and took a look outside, and said slowly and calmly: "Li Juren likes to be lively, so naturally we have to do what he likes, otherwise what will happen if we mess up the matter?"

Jingzhe had been looking at the gift list since she got in the car, and now her brows were so furrowed that she could pinch a fly.

"what happened?"

Jingzhe closed the gift list and sighed faintly: "Madam, you really should have checked the booklet yesterday. No, there are many things in it that were taken from your dowry, and they are all good things! Alas..."

After saying that, Jingzhe leaned back in frustration.If it had been discovered yesterday, no matter whether it was crying or making trouble, there would always be a way to keep these things, but now they have all been brought out...

It's all over...

"What?!" Hearing this, Gu Yu suddenly sat up straight, grabbed the booklet in Jingzhe's hand and looked through it, the anger in his eyes became more and more intense, "I said, why did the old lady suddenly care about the madam yesterday, and asked the madam to Go back and rest, it turns out you are waiting here! It’s too much!”

Gu Yu's voice was sharp, going straight to his brain. Jiang Fuyue rubbed the center of his eyebrows with a headache: "Save your voice and call again later."

"...What do you mean?" Gu Yu blinked blankly, and then two gleams of light burst out in his eyes, and the anger on his face was instantly wiped away, "Oh! Madam, don't worry! I understand!"

Jiang Fuyue smiled slightly.

Jingzhe is calm, always able to arrange everything in an orderly manner, and never makes any mistakes in his dealings with others.Guyu is smart, and although he has a bit of a temper, he always understands what she means immediately.

Jingzhe looked at this and that, with a confused look on his face: "What do you understand?"

Guyu pretended to look at Jingzhe in a condescending manner, but said nothing, but Jingzhe had long been accustomed to her behavior, and knew that she would not speak, so he continued to lower his head and worry about the gift list.

After about a stick of incense, the carriage slowly stopped.

Jingzhe got out of the car first, handed the shopkeeper a piece of silver, and asked him to clean up the place. He also called on the boys carrying the boxes to carry the things into the inn and put them away.

Several large boxes took up almost half of the hall, which was very spectacular.

Jiang Fuyue specifically asked not to close the door, and the waiters were guarding the door. There was a group of people watching the fun outside, some of whom had even followed all the way. At this time, everyone craned their necks to look inside.

After the arrangements were completed, Jingzhe asked the shopkeeper to take her to the upper room where Li Juren lived.

Standing at the door, Jingzhe cleared his throat, then raised his hand and knocked on the door: "Li Juren, my wife has invited you."

Almost as soon as Jingzhe finished speaking, the door in front of him was opened from the inside, bringing with it a strong gust of wind.

Jingzhe subconsciously took a step back.

Li Juren walked out of the room slowly.

He was born in a refined manner, dressed in luxurious brocade clothes and a jade crown. He looked like an elegant man at first glance, but his arrogance and superiority could not be hidden in his eyes: "Servant? Lead the way!"

As he spoke, he unceremoniously threw the bundle in his hand into Jingzhe's arms.

He will soon be a distinguished guest of the Hou Mansion, so naturally he does not need to be polite to a servant.

Jingzhe said yes, turned around, picked up the baggage and led the way.

Downstairs, as soon as Li Juren showed up, Jiang Fuyue took the initiative to take a few steps forward to greet him, making a sincere and sincere gesture: "I have long heard that Li Juren has an extraordinary demeanor, and now it turns out that he is like this."

"Li Juren came from out of town, and it was really hard to travel and travel all the way. Are you still used to resting in the capital for the past few days?"

The moment he saw Jiang Fuyue, a flash of surprise flashed across Li Juren's face.

Autumn water is like sacred jade and bones are like, hibiscus is like face and willows are like eyebrows. It is really rare to see such a unique and independent beauty.
