Chapter 41: Plum Appreciation
The reason why the mysterious veil is mysterious is because you don’t know what lies behind the veil, maybe it’s a surprise, maybe it’s a fright, or maybe it’s no surprise or joy, but once it’s revealed, the mystery is gone, no matter what it is you want to Facing it, it would be better to keep him mysterious, at least you still have an expectation in your heart.
Zhang Jiu felt that he was now on the verge of unveiling the veil, and that a single thought would change his life, so he couldn't help hesitating, and the hand that touched the veil refused to pull it down forcefully.
The struggle continued, and finally Zhang Jiu put down the hand that touched the veil, and chose to cover the things behind the veil, because he seemed to vaguely see the true face behind the veil, and behind it was a restricted area, a place he didn't want to touch. restricted area.
And in the near future, the mysterious veil that Zhang Jiu struggled with will be torn off, and the choice at that time will no longer be according to his will.
The results of the scientific examination before the year must not be announced. Many candidates from all over the Qin Dynasty will spend this year in the capital, and Zhang Jiu and the others are no exception.But this year is the most indifferent year for Zhang Jiu and the others. Apart from adding to the sadness, Zhang Jiu can't imagine that this year will be good for them?
Keeping things simple when going out, Liang An complied with Zhang Jiu and Jiang Ning's will, and only prepared a few New Year's goods, and the rest Liang An had brought for them when he came, and they wouldn't be able to stay long after the New Year, too much preparation would be a waste.
It was rare that Qin Ce didn't come to look for him that day, but Zhang Jiu couldn't tell whether he was happy or disappointed at the moment, lying on the table lazily, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Master, I haven't seen you go out in the inn for so many days. It's rare that the weather is so good today. Why don't you go out with Master Jiang?" Liang An suggested. He felt a headache when Zhang Jiu was lively, but now Zhang Jiu is quiet. Instead, he started to worry, what a pity for the parents in the world!
"Yes, yes, Master Jiu, let's go out for a walk." Jiang Ning immediately agreed, he is unwilling to be lonely, Zhang Jiu doesn't go out these days, and it is boring for him to go out alone.
"Where are you going?" Zhang Jiu asked.
"I heard that there is a plum grove in the capital. The plum blossoms are in full bloom at this time. Let's go and have a look."
"What's so good about plum blossoms?" Zhang Jiu was not interested in flowers and plants.
"Plum Blossom is proud, we can appreciate his integrity." Jiang Ning knew that Zhang Jiu was definitely not an arty person. Everything else about this person was fine, but he was too realistic.
"Oh," Zhang Jiu said with a faint smile, "is it because you are not proud and need to see plum blossoms to motivate yourself?"
"Who says I'm not proud, but I'm a proud man." Jiang Ning made a strong man's posture, "Do you see the bones on my body? They are all proud."
"I don't see the bones, all I see is fat"
"Jiu Ye, you are nakedly envious and jealous"
"Do you make me envious again?" Zhang Jiu glanced at him lightly, "I would rather envy pigs than envy you, at least the meat of pigs can be eaten."
Jiang Ning said aggrievedly, "Master Jiu, how can you compare me to a pig?"
Zhang Jiu nodded approvingly, "Yes, you are not comparable to a pig at all. Comparing you to a pig is an insult to a pig. I was wrong, and it was too outrageous."
"..." This is an insult to him.
Holding his wounded heart, Jiang Ning followed behind Zhang Jiu with a pitiful expression.
Jiang Ning was right. At this time, the plum blossoms were in full bloom, and Ling Han was in full bloom.
After getting off the car, the goal is plum blossoms, accompanied by a light fragrance.
"Master Jiu, I'm not wrong, the plum blossoms here are blooming well, this time your visit is definitely worthwhile." Jiang Ning said in desperation.
"Whether the plum blossoms bloom well or not depends on your will. What are you so proud of?" Zhang Jiu said, "But if you can make a hundred flowers bloom in Linghan, I will really admire you."
"Master Jiu, do you think I'm a Baihua fairy?" Let the Baihua Linghan bloom, thanks to him daring to think.
"Do you think Fairy Baihua will accept you?" Zhang Jiu said contemptuously.Suddenly, a flash of light came into his mind, and Zhang Jiu smiled, with a confident light in his eyes.
"Master Jiu, what did you think of?" Jiang Ning looked at Zhang Jiu obsequiously, every time he showed such an expression, it meant that he must have come up with some good idea again.
"Come up with a good way to make money." Zhang Jiu's eyes lit up. Although he doesn't have the ability to bloom flowers in Wu Zetian's Fang Linghan, he can build a greenhouse where you can grow flowers and vegetables, and he will definitely make a lot of money. With one stroke, Zhang Jiu seemed to see a steady stream of money flying towards his pocket.
Hearing about making money, Jiang Ning's eyes began to light up, and his heart began to itch. He couldn't wait to know the method Zhang Jiu said. If Zhang Jiu is a small money fan, Jiang Ning is definitely a big money fan. "What is a good way?"
"Guess, there will be a reward for guessing right," Zhang Jiu said seductively.
Jiang Ning rolled his eyes, "Is it related to the plum blossom we just talked about?"
"Take a little edge, continue"
Jiang Ning rolled his eyeballs again, "Is it related to the blooming of the Hundred Flowers Linghan?"
"That's right." Zhang Jiu smiled and nodded.
Jiang Ning was stunned for half a minute, jumped up excitedly, hugged Zhang Jiu, and said incoherently, "Jiuye, you can't make a hundred flowers bloom in Linghan, is it true? I'm not dreaming, it's great Yes, Master Jiu, I admire you to death, you are my God, I love you so much"
Zhang Jiu, who was praised, looked at Jiang Ning with a smile, and said until he calmed down, "I just have an idea now, and we have to discuss how to do it specifically."
"I believe in Jiuye, what you think of is absolutely feasible." Jiang Ning never doubted this, "Jiuye, I have seen the big gold ingot waving to us now, gold, you just wait for me to collect it Bar"
"Calm down, calm down" Zhang Jiu laughed, only when it came to making money, no matter how Jiang Ning reacted, Zhang Jiu would not say anything.
"When I think of gold, I can't calm down. Master Jiu, I'm so excited." Jiang Ning held Zhang Jiu's hand, "Master Jiu, let's go back and discuss it with Uncle Liang. Let's implement it quickly."
"What's the rush, even if you want to do it, you have to wait until you return to Xiangzhou." Zhang Jiu is obviously much more sensible than Jiang Ning.
"Oh..." Jiang Ning's enthusiasm dropped by half in an instant, but the excitement on his face was not a bit less, with a smirk all the time, "Jiuye, let's go back and discuss with Uncle Liang, let's go home, I don't want to wait any longer."
"Do you think Uncle Liang will agree?" Everyone would like money, but Zhang's family does not lack this money. In Liang An's eyes, scientific research is more important.
Hearing that Jiang Ning's enthusiasm dropped from five points to three points, "Jiuye, you said they know we can't be officials, why do they have to let us take the exam?"
"Stubbornness is a disease, there is no cure," Zhang Jiu sighed.As far as people like his grandfather think, let alone ten cows, even a hundred cows can't be pulled back.
"You are so right." Jiang Ning, who was deeply affected by it, agreed very much.
"Young Master Zhang, Young Master Jiang" Gao De's voice came from far and near.
Zhang Jiu followed the sound and saw Gao De trotting towards them, and a pavilion farther away was full of people.
"What a coincidence, senior executives," Jiang Ning said with a smile, admiring Gao De very much, he can run so fast at such an age, he is really old and strong.
"It's a coincidence that the two sons are also here to appreciate the plum blossoms, right?"
Jiang Ning nodded, "Is the senior executive here with Brother Heng?"
"My Highness and several other Highnesses are also here to enjoy the plum blossoms. Seeing you are here, let me invite you to go to the pavilion to have a talk."
It was only then that Jiang Ning noticed that there were almost no people in the huge Meilin here, and it turned out that it was reserved, so those people in the pavilion were the princes of Daqin? "We appreciate the kindness of the senior executives. It's just that their brothers get together. It's not suitable for us two outsiders to go. I and Master Jiu will not bother you."
"What did Mr. Jiang say? You are friends with my Highness, how could you be an outsider? Besides, His Highness Fourth and Highness Fifth also said that they want you to talk. Don't shirk the two young masters."
Jiang Ning looked at Zhang Jiu, and took his silence as tacit consent, "In this case, we will be disrespectful."
