Chapter 333
Sun Dinghong and Fang Yanming didn't care about these people either. At this time, Xiaoer happened to be delivering food, so the three of them raised the topic.

When all the dishes were served, Sun Dinghong didn't have any appetite. He lazily picked up a dish with chopsticks and slowly chewed it in his mouth, his cheeks bulging.

Lan Xi and Fang Yanming looked at each other, knowing that Sun Dinghong must have something on his mind, otherwise he wouldn't take the initiative to invite them to dinner.

While eating, Lan Xi said unintentionally, "Is Brother Sun's duty in the Imperial Academy going well?"

When Sun Dinghong heard this, he put down the chopsticks in his hand suddenly, and his face could be wrinkled into a bun.

"Brother Chang, you don't know that this Imperial Academy is not a safe place, especially those two bachelors who attend lectures, they are not easy to deal with on the surface, but the official university crushes people to death, and they can't refuse me when they come to me."

Lan Xi glanced at Fang Yanming after hearing this. The two of them both worked in the Imperial Academy. Unexpectedly, Fang Yanming also frowned, and then he spoke,
"The two bachelor attendants want to win over Mr. Sun, so naturally they will take care of Mr. Sun, but this obviously annoys Mr. Sun even faster.

However, the Hanlin Academy has been in a bit of chaos recently. If it wasn't for the pressure of the senior scholar Liu, these two people would probably fight. "

Sun Dinghong's grandfather was the left servant of the household department. This position is not something that ordinary people can do. Naturally, many people win over and please.

Sun Dinghong was full of bitterness, "They want to win over grandpa, just go to my grandfather directly, why bother me, I don't even have time to read every day."

Sun Dinghong also knew that this was impossible, but he was also annoyed, and he couldn't refuse.

Fang Yanming next to him chuckled, "Brother Sun Xian is in the midst of blessings and doesn't know how to be blessed. I don't see many people envious of you for being favored by the two monks, even your elder brother is envious."

Sun Dinghong rolled his eyes indecently, "Brother Fang is still laughing at me, I envy Brother Fang to have a clean place in the Imperial Academy and concentrate on studying."

After all, the collection of books in the Hanlin Academy is extremely rich, and this was most of the reasons why Sun Dinghong was admitted to the Hanlin in the first place. I didn't expect that now, facing the open and secret struggles of the leaders all day long, it would be very unfortunate for him.

Lan Xi didn't interrupt, it's good to let the two of them vent their feelings, as long as the relationship between the three of them is good, otherwise they thought Sun Dinghong was showing off.

Because of Sun Dinghong's young age, his personality is also a little pure. As for Fang Yanming, although he doesn't show it on the surface, his heart is like a mirror.

"Then what did your grandfather say?" Lan Xi raised her head and asked.

Sun Dinghong frowned even more when he heard this, "Grandpa said this is the norm in the officialdom, let me find a way to solve it myself, and I can't join any party."

Come on, it seems that the old man is testing Sun Dinghong, but when he enters the officialdom, he must be careful, otherwise he will not know how he died.

Lan Xi rolled her eyes, "You might as well go to Master Liu more often to see if you have any problems, or to see if there is anything you can help."

Since those two were still worried about the grandfather behind Sun Dinghong, and his grandfather asked him to figure out a way by himself, but he didn't say that he couldn't take advantage of him.

If Sun Dinghong came from an ordinary background, he would naturally not be able to go beyond the servants to find the big leaders above him, but he does not have his grandfather behind him, so ordinary people can still sell Mrs. Sun's face, and Sun Dinghong also shows that he does not want to get involved in the faction of the Imperial Academy This is what Master Liu is happy to see.

In short, this method can be tried.

After Sun Dinghong heard it, his eyes lit up, "Yes, I will try it then."

Then put his eyes on Fang Yanming,

Fang Yanming smiled happily, "I'll forget it, I'll just be my transparent person honestly."

Because Fang Yanming knew that this method was not suitable for him, whoever told him that he had no background in the court, he should be honest and honest, and do more work.

Sun Dinghong wasn't disappointed either, he let go of his worries, and immediately whetted his appetite, devouring the food in front of him, and taking care of Lan Xi and Fang Yanming to eat quickly.

"Try it, this sauce-flavored pork ribs is not bad, not only tender and juicy, but also rich in sauce, I will pack another one for my mother to take back."

Sun Dinghong's character is like this, sometimes he has a childish temper, but he won't be annoying.

The three of them ate a meal comfortably, and by the time the meal was over, it was already dark outside.

Lan Xi didn't let the two of them see her off, but instead walked back home. It was only a quarter of an hour away from home, and Lan Xi went back unhurriedly.

When they got home, Liu Cuie and Chang Erhai were sitting in the living room drinking tea, while Chang Linger was sitting aside writing something with a pen and paper.

Lan Xi walked in and took a look. It turned out that he was writing today's purchases and expenses, and every single item was clearly written.

Now Chang Ling'er is ten years old, and her handwriting in lower script with hairpin flowers is a bit shapely.

Lan Xi smiled and said, "Ling'er is going to be the housekeeper of our house."

Liu Cuie waved her hand, "It's nothing to worry about, let Ling'er keep the books, but the prices in the capital are really high, a bucket of rice costs one tael of silver, which is twice as high as that in Qingyuan County, not to mention other prices. "

At first, Liu Cuie thought Xue was lying to her, but later she also went to the rice shop to inquire, and then she realized that the price was normal.

Lan Xi didn't say anything, it's normal for prices in the capital to be high, "Isn't there a Zhuangzi in our family, if mother thinks the prices in the capital are high, why not let those tenants pay the grain directly in the future, and they can grow some vegetables in the Zhuangzi. "

When Liu Cui'e heard this, it was a good idea. At that time, her family would not have to spend so much money. During this period of time, their family's money could only be withdrawn.
Lan Xi was the only one earning money in the family, and she was also a little anxious. After all, she couldn't just sit and eat. Recently, she was discussing with her father whether she should do something.

But the father said that now her son is an official, if they go out to do odd jobs, it will also affect his son, and his son's reputation will not be good.

Liu Cuie thinks about it carefully.

Then Liu Cuie thought of something and asked, "Eldest son, do you still have to give gifts to other people during the Chinese New Year? I also heard from Sister Xue."

Before that, Mrs. Xue was also a servant in the official's family, so she naturally knew some things.

Lan Xi was slightly taken aback, thinking, it's only October, and the Chinese New Year is still far away, and this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, he has just joined the job, and Liu Cuie has just arrived, so he is not familiar with anything, and Lan Xi only works for Sun Dinghong and Fang Yanming. Give a gift.

But this year it is estimated that there will be a few more, "Mom, I will give you a list at that time, let Aunt Xue go to buy it, and then you can arrange the people around you to send it to you."

This is also the first time Liu Cui'e has heard of this kind of thing. It's not like in their village, they go there with gifts during the New Year. Unlike here, which one gives as much gift, which one is a little less than the other, and which one gives gifts and what else? taboo.

Liu Cuie's head almost exploded when she heard Mrs. Xue finished speaking. It was too difficult.
