I Made a Fortune by Marrying a Sick Girl! - Chapter 271
Chapter 271 The future is promising
Xiao Xi stayed for less than half an hour and then said goodbye.
Song Jin asked Qin Qi to send her out.
Go back to the small tea room next to the processing room in the backyard.
The small tea room is specially separated.
The space in the room is not large, with desks, bookshelves and a small carved square coffee table, and nothing else. The small teahouse is Song Jin’s territory, and others are generally not allowed to enter.
Song Jin did all the cleaning himself.
After Xiao Xi left.
Song Jin came to the small tea room.
Next to the window hangs a small cloth bag.
He took off the bag and opened it. Inside were some bamboo tubes the size of a finger. Song Jin twisted the bamboo tube a few times and immediately opened one end and saw the note stuffed in the hollow inside.
The note is rolled up.
It opens to a dense collection of small print.
These are the messages sent from all over.
More than 90% of it is information about the Yang family, Liu family and Liu family. After she opened them one by one and read them, she threw the notes into the brazier. Then record the key information into the book. However, the recording method in the booklet is probably only understandable by her.
“Tuk-tuk.”
Someone knocked gently on the door.
Song Jin asked: “Who?”
“Madam, it’s me, Ah Qi.”
Qin Qi’s voice sounded outside, “The banquet in the front yard is over. The young master is seeing off guests. My subordinates came to say something to you.”
“Oh, got it.”
Song Jin opened a small bamboo tube and said, “Let Uncle Li look at my husband. If my husband feels uncomfortable, remember to ask Doctor Jing to come over. I have some things to do here, so I’ll go there after I’m done.”
“good.”
Qin Qi glanced at the closed door doubtfully.
But he had no intention of exploring and went to the front yard instead.
The food and wine in the front yard are finished.
A group of people also want to go back to the Hanlin Academy.
Qin Chi sent everyone out.
Lu Yanji and Lu Baizhou followed to see them off.
Both of them looked happy, and it was obvious that they had gained something from the meal.
When there were only three people left, Qin Chi asked jokingly: “How is it? Is there anything gained?”
“I have benefited a lot, thank you and pray for peace.”
Lu Yanji bowed to Qin Chi and thanked him.
Lu Baizhou on the side also thanked him: “I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. If there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please feel free to ask, Brother Qi’an.”
Qin Chi said a few words modestly and asked them whether they wanted to go back to the inn or stay here to rest.
Both of them said they wouldn’t bother them anymore and asked to go back to the inn.
Qin Chi called Lao Huo and drove the two of them back in a carriage. Now that the carriage was far away, he entered the house again.
The door was closed by Old Man Hong.
Old Man Hong asked with concern: “Is the young master drunk?”
“All I drink is cold water.”
It’s easy for Qin Chi to stop drinking at home. He can just ask the person pouring the wine to replace it with water. “My lady said, I can stop drinking if I don’t want to. She said it’s harmful to the body.”
This is very common.
He said it in a normal way.
Old Man Hong heard something strange, so he simply changed the subject: “The Ministry of Rites hasn’t sent over the official uniforms yet. Sir, do you think there will be any accidents with this promotion?”
“Who dares to go against His Majesty? Aren’t you going against Your Majesty by making small moves on the court uniform?” Qin Chi walked inside while talking, and went directly to the study.
As he sat down, he rubbed his brow.
After being busy during this period, to be honest, it is indeed a bit tiring.
There was banging banging outside, and someone knocked on the door.
Old man Hong went to open a crack in the door. When he saw an official knocking on the door and an official from the Ministry of Rites not far away, he immediately pretended to be an ordinary old man.
“Who are you looking for?” Old Man Hong asked in a humble tone. The official outside said loudly: “It’s the Ministry of Rites who are here to give Mr. Qin his crown and uniform. Could you please go and report it?”
Old Man Hong opened the door, “The master has given instructions earlier, please come in, please.”
The others entered the courtyard.
Qin Chi quickly came out of the study after receiving the news.
He greeted the three of them with a smile.
The person who came was an official from the Ministry of Etiquette.
Accompanying him were two servants.
A policeman leads the way, and a policeman holds the crown and uniform in his hand.
The official of the Ministry of Etiquette was just an errand boy, and his rank was not as high as Qin Chi’s. When he saw Qin Chi, his attitude was neither humble nor overbearing. He first saluted and then handed over step by step, without any intention of embarrassment.
Qin Chi left the three of them to drink some tea.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
I also prepared three red envelopes, one large and two small.
Then send the three people away.
The three people walked out of the Qin family gate.
One of the guards looked back, pinched the thick red seal in his hand, and said cheerfully: “This Qin Zhuangyuan has a very good temper. There are so many rumors about him from the outside world. I thought he would look down on us.”
“Yes, I drank the tea poured by the Number One Scholar, and I will never regret it until I die.”
Another officer is still thinking about the tea just now, and will have a good time with his brothers when he gets back.
Officials from the Ministry of Etiquette walking in the front.
In fact, the mood is quite complicated.
He snatched this job because he wanted to see Qin Zhuangyuan’s style.
This time, isn’t he just an ordinary person? At most, his appearance is more outstanding and his temperament is a little better than that of the scholars of the same period. But when he heard what the two police officers behind him said, he was shocked to realize the difference.
“Yes, this year’s new top scorer is very different.” The official from the Ministry of Rites said, looking at the sky above the Imperial City.
The two people behind him listened.
One of the guards said: “Sir, what’s unusual about this?”
“Everywhere is extraordinary.”
The official from the Ministry of Rites replied perfunctorily.
When he returned to the Ministry of Etiquette, he was immediately surrounded by a group of colleagues.
“I met you in person, how was it?”
“How do you feel? Is it awesome?”
“I didn’t steal it from you. Otherwise, I would really like to see if our new top pick is so capable. He even got promoted twice on the day he took office.”
Most of these speakers are officials below the seventh rank.
The transferred official from the Ministry of Rites said: “It’s very different.”
“We all know he is different, aren’t you talking nonsense?” The person who heard it was not satisfied.
Someone next to me also said: “If you say it, you haven’t said it yet. At least you have to talk about it in detail.”
The official of the Ministry of Etiquette sat down.
Someone immediately poured him a cup of tea. He took a sip of tea and said, “We were also Jinshi students back then. We spent a lot of effort to get an official position in the Ministry of Rites. I thought I could make great achievements from now on. However, after so many years, not only did I fail to find a future, my ambition and pride were all wiped out by reality…”
As soon as these words came out.
There was a sudden silence.
This is reality, but it is a reality that no one wants to admit or face.
Some people were annoyed and said, “I asked you to talk about Qin Qi’an, but I didn’t make you feel anything.”
“I just feel emotional.”
The official of the Ministry of Rites drank the tea in one gulp, feeling a surge of energy, and said in a rare sour voice, “When I first met this person, I didn’t think he was anything special. After leaving the gate of Qin Mansion, I heard As for the two officers, I was shocked to realize that, ahem, he didn’t have the arrogance we had when we first entered the officialdom.”
After coughing twice more, he continued: “As soon as I entered the official career, I have already integrated into the environment. I am very mature and stable.”
It’s quite scary.
The future is promising!
After listening to his words, the surroundings became quiet.
