After daybreak, Lu Jinhan finally climbed out of bed! And he only got up after repeated urging from his wife! He tried hard to open his eyes and saw his wife looking at him with concern. He closed his eyes subconsciously, and then rubbed his face vigorously to hide the disgusted expression on his face! At the same time, he subconsciously thought of the charming appearance of the courtesan last night, and couldn't help but feel even more disgusted with the old yellow face in front of him!
At this time, his wife said softly: "Master. But you still have a severe headache?"
Lu Jinhan put down his hand and forced a smile and said, "Much better! Thank you madam for taking care of me last night!"
The lady felt relieved after hearing what he said, and started to talk about how he looked after being drunk yesterday, which made Lu Jinhan even more upset! However, he still managed to smile and said: "My colleagues were so enthusiastic last night that I couldn't avoid them!"
Then with the help of the maid, he put on his clothes and went to the front to have breakfast, and then prepared to go to the Yamen. Of course, this is inseparable from the madam’s nagging!
Lu Jinhan’s hometown is Hubei. To be honest, the family is just an ordinary farmer. However, Lu Jinhan showed his talent for reading since he was a child, so his family sold iron to support him in studying in the academy!
And he lived up to expectations. Great book to read! And while other people spend money studying, he makes money! Because he quickly obtained his place as a scholar, he was able to receive rice from the imperial court every month.
Just when the whole family was looking forward to him going to high school as soon as possible and showing his great ambitions, his good luck seemed to have run out and he failed the college entrance examination several times in a row! And at this time, the thing that worried him the most finally happened. His family had no money for him to take the exam!
You know, rushing for exams in ancient times was not an easy task! Apart from other things, the money alone is not something that ordinary people can afford! It is thousands of miles from Hubei to the capital, and all the food and clothing on the road are money! Especially after arriving in the capital, it will cost a lot of money, which is not something a farmer family can support!
Let's put it this way, ever since he rushed to take the exam, the family has been digging hard! After rushing to take the exam twice, my family was already poor! The house will be broken after three times! Now that they are rushing to take the exam for the fourth time, their family can no longer afford a penny!
Just when Liu Haojia was desperate, a local wealthy family sent someone to inquire again to see if he could marry the Lu family. The woman is the eldest daughter of a wealthy family. She is only two years younger than Lu Jinhan and is already in her twenties!
The reason why she has not left the cabinet at this age is mainly because she has been lingering on the sickbed for some time. Now that I have recovered from my illness and am getting older, it is difficult to find the right person! Her family had originally tried the Lu family's approach but was rejected. Now that I see that his family is in dire straits, I come to propose marriage again and promise to support him to pass the exam!
Lu Jinhan has always been arrogant and arrogant. He has always refused to get married because he just wanted to marry a lady from a wealthy family. How could he marry the daughter of a country landowner who is still so old! But now his family can no longer afford to pay for him to take the exam, so for the sake of his own future, he can only grit his teeth and agree!
After the two parties got married, the woman's family fulfilled their promise. Not only did they bring a large and generous dowry, which alleviated the Lu family's difficulties, but they also supported him in going to Beijing to take the exam. And his wife is also quite virtuous.
But it is strange to say that Lu Jinhan succeeded in taking the exam for the first time after getting married, and became a high school Jinshi! Now the whole family is rejoicing! The Lu family is finally going to change its family structure!
Originally, although Lu Jinhan had no feelings for his wife after getting married, he still treated her with respect. But the relationship between them is close to the relationship between guests. When Lu Jinhan became a Jinshi after high school and saw sights and scenes that no one else had ever seen, he became even more disinclined to see his ordinary-looking and older wife at home!
In this case, he is more willing to linger in romantic places. Last night, he and a group of colleagues went to the brothel to celebrate his upcoming promotion! And the brothel's number one was extremely gentle, giving him great enjoyment! That’s why I came home drunk last night! What makes him regretful is that he drank too much yesterday and didn't have time to have anything happen with that card!
After his wife had breakfast with him, he felt better. Because everyone in the family who sees him will try their best to say auspicious words and give him good news, which makes his face radiant! After all, getting promoted and making a fortune is already
It’s a done deal, so naturally it makes people feel refreshed! .Ь.
By the time he went out with his long entourage, it was already three o'clock in the morning, but he was the prefect of Henan Prefecture in Henan Province, and he had the largest land in the prefecture, so who could make things difficult for him? What's more, he is already about to be promoted, and no one will find fault with him!
After Lu Jinhan entered the Yamen, the guards and clerks all smiled and congratulated him when they saw him, and he nodded in return. The attitude between them was extremely intimate! That's because this time Lu Jinhan was responsible for the construction of the Yellow River embankment in his jurisdiction and made a huge fortune! And the people below are naturally also very respectful, and of course they are extremely respectful to him!
When he entered the back hall, his master was already waiting there. Seeing him entering the room, he stood up and said, "Master, I heard that another masterpiece came out in Lan Kwai Fong last night. Why don't you recite it on the spot and let the students learn more about it?"
Lu Jinhan laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "There are no good works, they are just poems and essays for the occasion! It's not that you don't know, I am a high-ranking official sitting here, so I recited a limerick, and everyone You’ll also be applauded!”
After saying that, the two of them started laughing together! It seems that he is not confused yet and knows why his poems are praised!
After Lu Jinhan sat down, his master personally helped him pour tea, and the two of them chatted some more about what happened in Lan Kwai Fong last night. Finally, having nothing to say, Master said in a low voice: "My boss, the accounting student has made arrangements with the clerk below. Would you like to take a look?"
Hearing about money matters, Lu Jinhan immediately perked up! He sat up straight and said: "This is the last piece of money, it must be arranged!".Ь.
The master nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, after the money is distributed, those people will disperse! Once they disperse, this matter will be completely settled! It will be even more difficult to trace the whereabouts of the money!" "
After the master finished speaking, he also boasted about his own methods. However, Lu Jinhan knew that the master was not without real talent and learning, but a serious money and food master!
Starting from the Song Dynasty, because officials relied more and more on their origins in the Eight-Part Part Essay, they often put their energy into the Eight-Part Part Essay. This caused a big gap in their practice! But the biggest job of being an official is practical work. How can you be an official if you don’t understand?
