Although the knowledge of physiology and hygiene of girls in this era is not as good as that of modern times, no matter how stupid Wang Qiuya is, she knows that she will not conceive a child if she wears a condom, so she is also afraid that others will know that she and her son have an actual situation, especially Fan Xiaolin will know.

Knowing that she and Gongzi are together, it is actually quite a glorious thing, although they are together without officially getting married, a bit of that, but she doesn't have contact with outsiders, and people inside will definitely envy her, which Wang Qiuya knows.

But if you have been together for a long time, but you have never been able to conceive a child, others will definitely talk about it, and when the time comes, you will think that she can't give birth, isn't that fatal.

"When did they leave?" After finishing his work, Wei Bao remembered to ask a few of his subordinates.

Fan said tiredly: "It's dawn, most of the people have long since dispersed, it's that group of boys, they can really drink." ”

Liu Chunshi also yawned: "No, I vomited three times yesterday, and I almost vomited out my intestines, and I couldn't vomit anything in the back, and I turned back with sour water." ”

Wei Bao smiled: "Hard work." ”

"Qiu Ya is also very hard, and her eye circles are a little blue." Fan Xiaolin said in a casual tone.

Wang Qiuya's face instantly turned red with shame, and she said softly: "I didn't sleep well last night. ”

"Well, you two drank a lot of wine too, I saw both." Fan said with a smile: "If you sleep again during the day, you will be relieved, and Chunshi and I will accompany our son to the mansion, right?" Childe, don't they have to go? ”

Wei Bao nodded and said to Wang Qiuya, "Let's rest here." ”

When Wang Qiuya saw Gongzi saying to herself, her heart warmed, and she smiled sweetly: "I'm not tired." ”

Wei Bao smiled: "If you are not tired, you don't have to go, the mansion is not something that women can enter casually, and besides, I guess it is impossible to go in with all the people, at most one or two people will accompany you to go in." ”

Hearing what the son said, Wang Qiuya obediently agreed to rest here.

"I couldn't even eat at the beginning, but now I can drink until I vomit, what's there to be tired of? If my father knew that we were living such a life now, he might be more envious. Fan Xiaolin said with a smile. Although it was a little pantothenic, she tried her best not to think about Wang Qiuya and Wei Gongzi, and tried to look the same as usual, because Fan Xiaolin could see that Gongzi and Wang Qiuya seemed to want to cover up their relationship and didn't want to make it public.

Fan Xiaolin is a very smart girl, her highest criterion is Wei Bao, everything is based on understanding Wei Bao's mind and doing things around Wei Bao's mind, as the core.

"Yes, if my father could live a life of drinking and meating every day, he would definitely be happier than anything else, but unfortunately my father is not suitable for socializing with a group of literati and can't be on the big stage." Fan said with a big smile.

"The point is, we don't often have to accompany the bar? If we always get so many people to eat and drink together, and always have the son to accompany us personally, we will be eaten poor sooner or later. Fan Xiaolin agreed.

"Whether you are an official or a businessman, the more you eat, the richer you get! Where will you eat poor? Wei Bao smiled and talked about a very philosophical topic, but he didn't want to explain, and said with a smile: "Let's go, the hour is not early, pass early, our current status is very low, don't leave a bad impression." ”

Fan Datou and Liu Chunshi nodded yes, and called Chang Wuye and other armed followers to accompany Wei Gongzi out.

"Qiuya, why are you walking weirdly today?" Fan Xiaolin and Wang Qiuya watched Gongzi together, and when they saw Gongzi and his party disappearing on the street corner, they said to Wang Qiuya beside them.

Wang Qiuya's face instantly turned red, and she looked at Fan Xiaolin in surprise, thinking that Fan Xiaolin had discovered something? "How...... How? ”

"Not really." Fan Xiaolin smiled slightly, "I thought you were uncomfortable?" Did it come ahead of time? ”

Fan Xiaolin and Wang Qiuya have both reached the age when girls come to work, the two of them are very good, and each other's menstrual cycles are very clear.

Wang Qiuya saw that Fan Xiaolin didn't seem to know, her face was blushing, but her heart was a little settled, and she smiled: "It's a little abnormal, maybe it's because you drank too much, right?" Yesterday came a little bit. ”

In a word, I helped last night's Luohong, and I also explained it.

Fan Xiaolin smiled: "That's good." ”

Leave Wang Qiuya a smile worth playing.

Wang Qiuya's face flushed, her heart was pounding, she couldn't tell whether Fan Xiaolin knew it or not, and hesitated to tell her?

Wei Bao arrived at the door of the mansion, and saw that some people had come, secretly thinking about this kind of gathering, it seems that all families attach great importance to it, it is estimated that all the families with cards in western Liaoning will send people to come, and the bigwigs in the officialdom and shopping malls are estimated to be a gathering.

In addition to the families with cards in the shopping mall in the officialdom, it is a new science show like Wei Bao that can attend.

Originally, Wei Bao's business had become bigger, and he was qualified to come to this kind of banquet, but no one had invited him, and he couldn't come uninvited, which was the embarrassment of the newly rich man.

Wei Bao smiled and greeted everyone silently, because there were many people, he didn't know and didn't know what to call them.

But most people are very cold to Wei Bao.

Wei Bao didn't care, guessing that these people should all be people who had lost something in their own Xiucai exam.

"Childe, don't pay attention to them, it's all jealousy of us." Fan said softly.

Wei Bao smiled slightly: "You know, does your son-in-law seem to be a stingy person?" ”

Fan smiled and accompanied Gongzi in with the others.

"Stop, who's coming?" One of the chiefs of the government was in charge of reception.

Wei Bao reported his name and said that he was a new talent and was invited.

"You can only enter in person, and you can't bring your entourage." The head of the army said with a cold face.

Wei Bao nodded, and then said to everyone: "You just wait outside, Liu Chunshi and I can just go in." ”

Liu Chunshi is also a talent in Jinke, and he is qualified to enter, this is the privilege of Xiucai, although he has no power or power, he can be on this kind of high-end scene.

Wei Bao and Liu Chunshi entered the mansion, and it was another waiting area, and the two of them greeted some rich children who had met with their classmates yesterday, and spoke softly to socialize.

Wei Bao looked at the rows of seats waiting to be seated, a bit like a small concert, there were more than 200 seats, and all the mansion compounds were occupied.

"Wei Gongzi."

After a while, Wu Sanfu and a few of his good sons arrived.

Wei Bao hurriedly greeted him with a smile: "Wu Gongzi." ”

"You weren't honest yesterday and ran away halfway." Wu Sanfu said with a smile.

"It's really not enough to drink." Wei Bao smiled.

"Wei Gongzi is not honest in what he does, and he is not honest in drinking, but the gambling money is very tough, I didn't expect you to really open a gambling plate in the Tiandi Firm? I've already asked people to collect money, and this time I have to get back the capital from the last time. Wang Dongming said.

"Brother Wang, if you want to get back the four or five thousand taels of silver you lost, this time it's a fifty to one gambling board, I'm afraid you have to prepare two or three hundred thousand taels of silver, your old man won't be willing to take out all the money for you to play, right?" Fang Anping teased.

Wang Dongming was slapped in the face at that time, and his face turned red and said: "I can't take out two or three hundred thousand taels, but if I take another one hundred thousand taels, I don't have to go through my old man!" How? How much can Fang Gongzi take out this time? On the last trip, it seems that you also lost thousands of taels of silver, right? ”

"Don't fight, it's like no one has ever lost. Wei Gongzi has done a very good job this time, give us a chance to get a little back. Wu Er Gongzi, tell Sangui that you have to be merciful to Wei Gongzi, just win, don't beat Wei Gongzi out of the way. Wang Canhua mocked pitifully.

Wu Sanfu said with a smile: "This is natural, I have already told Sangui, don't be really ruthless, otherwise with Sangui's fist power, the calf will not be able to bear it." ”

Wei Bao sweated, listening to a few people talking, as if he was a calf standing still and letting others beat him? Lao Tzu is not stupid, no matter how powerful Wu Sangui is, I have practiced Tai Chi, and I don't know how to dodge and wander? I want to exhaust Wu Sangui and lie down!

This is Wei Bao's 'strategy', he plans to use wandering to deal with Wu Sangui, otherwise he would not dare to open this kind of gambling plate, nor dare he dare to fight with Wu Sangui, Wei Bao is looking forward to fighting for a draw, and he is satisfied.

Everyone was talking enthusiastically, and after a while, Wu Xiang and a group of bigwigs also arrived, seeing that the banquet was about to start.

This time Wu Sangui was not present, Wu Sanfeng and Wu Xuexia who accompanied Wu Xiang appeared, and there was a young man who Wei Bao had never seen, following Wu Xiang's side, looking at that, he was very familiar with the Wu family, and he looked like he was pleasing Wu Xuexia.

"Who's that guy?" Wei Bao couldn't help but ask Wu Sanfu with a little curiosity. That person knew at a glance that he was Wu Xuexia's suitor.

Wu Sanfu followed Wei Bao's gaze and looked in the direction, "Oh, that's Zu Kefa, a relative of my family, what's wrong?" Wei Gongzi is jealous? Really interesting to my sister? ”

Wei Bao's face flushed, he didn't expect Wu Sanfu to say so directly, and he didn't know how to answer.

"Wei Gongzi is interested in Xuexia?" When Wang Dongming heard this, he laughed.

"I didn't say that." Wei Bao hurriedly defended himself.

"Interesting is interesting, what's this? Our children of Liaoxi, who is not interested in Xuexia? However, it is interesting to think about it, that Zu Kefa is the adopted son of General Zu, whether it is family background or relationship with the Wu family, it is not comparable to outsiders. Wang Dongming said.

In this era, the relationship between cousins and sisters is the first priority relationship between large families. Not only large families, but also ordinary ordinary families. That's why Wang Dongming said that.

"Not only is the family background and the relationship with the Wu family close, I heard that this ancestor is good at French and Taowu, and he is a rare talent in Liaoxi and Liaodong in recent years." Wang Canhua also added.

"Hey, let's not think about it, Brother Wu, is Xue Xia interested in Zu Kefa?" Fang Anping asked.

"I don't know, I never ask my sister about it, just let her be. However, my father and mother are quite satisfied with Zukefa. Wu Sanfu said with a smile.

"That's probably going to happen." Wang Dongming sighed: "Is Zu Kefa really General Zu's adopted son, or is he a son born outside?" ”

As soon as he heard Wang Dongming ask, several other sons and brothers also gossiped over.

Wu Sanfu smiled: "If you want to ask, go and ask him, where do I know?" ”

"I guess, eighty percent is the son of a maid, and he can't be on the stage, right? Otherwise, General Zu still has a few sons, right? Why did you let Zu Kefa marry the Wu family? Wang Dongming looks like Detective Conan.

Several sons nodded in unison, and they all said that it made sense.

Wu Sanfu saw that Wei Bao had not spoken, and asked softly, "Brother Wei, what's wrong?" Really jealous and sad? Like my sister so much? ”

Wei Bao came back to his senses, hummed, and hurriedly shook his head, he was thinking about the name Zu Kefa, and he seemed to have a vague impression, where was he thinking about Wu Xuexia?

Wei Bao's expression provoked Wu Sanfu to laugh again. Regarding the fact that everyone likes his sister, he seems to have seen a lot since he was a child, and he has long been surprised.

Wei Bao remembered that Zu Kefa was the adopted son of Zu Dashou, a general in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and he had indeed heard of this person before, and he was a hardcore traitor.

In the third year of Chongzhen (1631), he recovered Luozhou with his ancestor's birthday. Zukaffa is accompanied.

In the fourth year of Chongzhen (1632), in the Battle of the Daling River, he was detained as a hostage in the Qing army camp.

In May of the following year, he was recruited and naturalized into the city, awarded the title of first-class male, and was appointed as the governor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In July of the third year of Chongde (1638), the Houjin bureaucratic system was reformed, and he was reappointed as the right to participate in politics.

In June of the seventh year of Chongde (1642), the Manchu Qing Dynasty established the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and Zu Kefa awarded the Han Army the Yellow Banner as the deputy capital.

In the following year, he accompanied Prince Zheng Jierharang to conquer the Zhonghou Institute and the Qiantun Guard, and was awarded the title of Yiyun Cavalry Captain on merit.

In April of the first year of Shunzhi (1644), Zu Kefa followed Prince Rui Dolgon into the pass, defeated Li Zicheng's army in Beijing and Hebei, and the Qing court ordered him to serve as the chief of Henan Weihui as the governor of the right capital, and pacified the bandits in Yuanwu and Xinxiang counties.

Li Zicheng's army of more than 20,000 people harassed Jiyuan and Huaiqing in Henan, and the Qing Dynasty's general soldier Jin Yuhe was killed in battle.

In the second year of Shunzhi (1645), he was appointed as the governor of Zuodu, served as the general army of Huguang, and stationed in Wuchang.

In the third year of Shunzhi (1646), he was dismissed because of serious illness, returned to Beijing, and was promoted to the third son.

He died in the thirteenth year of Shunzhi (1657) and pursued Shunxi.

is not only a hardcore traitor, but also a hardcore traitor, although his fame is not as great as Wu Sangui's, but he also belongs to the vanguard of the Han people to kill the Han people, and the lives of the people in their hands, in history, there are hundreds of thousands if not millions!

At this time, I was ready to take a seat, and the person in charge of arranging the venue was Zu Chuncai, the master of Yongping Mansion's prefect Zu Guangyao.

Zu Chuncai asked people to take each guest into a seat.

Only then did Wei Bao know that the rows of seats were not sitting randomly.

In the middle of the seats is a square table, which is not very large, and each table is like four people.

The eight rows in the middle are horizontal, and they are the main seats.

There are four rows of vertical seats next to it, which are side seats, such as Xiucai, and some members of the entourage of large families, or people from small families, who sit next to them, and are not qualified to enter the main seat, but only the person who sits in the main seat has the qualification to speak.

From the perspective of the seats, the dignity and humility are orderly, and the division is very strict.

There are eight rows of seats, divided into front, middle and back, and the front two rows, which are all seats for people of the level of a big guy like Wu Xiangzu Guangyao.

The middle three rows, the back three rows, these are the positions of the Liaoxi Liaodong family that is a little secondary.

Most of the people who came today were people from Liaoxi, and there were very few people from Liaodong, and it was not the kind of big banquet where everyone gathered, otherwise, there would have to be at least dozens of more seats.

Liaoxi Liaodong, in fact, is dominated by Liaoxi, Liaodong is a chaotic place, most of the people who go out are military generals, and those personal base camps are still in Liaodong.

Today, Zu Kefa is here on behalf of the ancestral family.

"Wu Gongzi, please sit in the middle row." Zu Chuncai politely said to Wu Sanfu.

Wu Sanfu nodded, hugged his fists to his companions, and walked towards his place with a scholar's folding fan.

Wang Dongming was also arranged in the middle seat, which was already very forward.

Children of traditional rich families such as Fang Anping and Wang Canhua, although they lack prestige in the official face, are also arranged in the back row of the main seat, which is a symbol of status.

Wei Bao and Zu Chuncai were familiar with each other, and when they saw Zu Chuncai in front of him, they said affectionately: "Big brother." ”

Zu Chuncai was a little colder than usual, and nodded indifferently: "Master Wei, you can be wronged and be a side seat on the left-hand side." ”

Wei Bao sweated, not to mention that he was blessed by the identity of Xiucai, in terms of family property, Wang Canhua and Fang Anping's family may not be more than himself! Why am I sitting in the next seat?

Wei Bao's biggest problem is that he has a good face and values vanity.

Zu Chuncai was a little dissatisfied with Wei Bao, that was because Zu Chuncai lost a lot of silver this time, and felt that Wei Bao must have mastered some way to the sky in private, but he didn't greet himself in advance, causing himself to lose a lot of silver.

"Big brother, did you lose a lot of silver? Can't you blame me for that? Before the results were opened, I didn't know if I could pass the exam. Wei Bao said.

Zu Chun was told by Wei Bao, and blushed a little embarrassedly, "I don't blame my brother, I blame myself for being greedy." However, did you really get into the exam on your own? ”

"Isn't that right? If I had a way, where would I take the 18th place? I don't know how to take a government test? Fortunately, I won all the first lists, otherwise, I would have gone bankrupt this time. Wei Bao said with a bitter face: "Who is more risky than me?" ”

Zu Chuncai thought about it, it seemed that this was really the case, his mood was a little better, and he was not very resentful of Wei Bao, "Master Wei, this time, I have no way, who let you come to the banquet for the first time?" Many people are from families who have been here many times, and if you are not much stronger than others, it is difficult to put people out of position. ”

Wei Bao sighed, it was right to think about it, his heart was calmed down a little, and he smiled: "It's okay, big brother, it's the same wherever I sit." ”

"Well, it's all a matter of going through the motions, it's over in a while, today's banquet is mainly for you new Xiucai to hold a ceremony, and the prefect will give each Xiucai a life uniform, a waist card, and leave a name in the government, and you will be a formal Xiucai in the future." Zu Chuncai said.

Wei Bao nodded.

Zu Chun knew that Wei Bao had a good face, and the seat arranged for Wei Bao, although it was a side seat, but the side seat was vertically arranged, arranged in a row inside, and it was the front, and it was in the side seat, which was also good.

Liu Chunshi sat behind Wei Bao, just enough to be at the same table as Wei Bao.

The people near the two of them are either poor and talented classmates, or people sent by small families.

Wei Bao's seat happened to be next to Wu Xiang, Wu Sanfeng, Wu Xuexia, and Zu Kefa.

Wu Xuexia saw Wei Bao.

Wei Bao also saw Wu Xuexia and winked his left eye mischievously at Wu Xuexia.

Wu Xuexia couldn't help laughing, and then put on a pretty face and didn't look at Wei Bao.

This micro-expression was just seen by Zu Kefa, who had been paying attention to Wu Xuexia, and he was immediately angry, Wu Xuexia had never smiled at him.

"Brother, who is that?" Zu Kefa immediately asked Wu Sanfeng beside him.

Wu Sanfeng looked at Wei Bao, the enemy was very red when he saw him, and snorted: "He is Wei Bao!" ”

"This is Wei Bao, who made my uncle and brother, as well as Brother Sangui and Brother Sanfu, lose tens of thousands of taels of silver? Isn't he a commoner? Zu Kefa suddenly frowned, "How can such a person be qualified to participate in the banquet?" ”

"You forgot? Today's banquet is to congratulate the new talents. Wu Sanfeng said: "Didn't he just pass the Xiucai exam?" ”

"This kind of person can also be admitted to Xiucai? It must be fraud, this court is really getting darker and darker! Zu Kefa said indignantly.

When Wu Sanfeng heard this, he secretly said that if you didn't spend money, how could you get an official position? No matter how dark it is, it's not as black as your ancestral family, right?

Wu Xuexia felt uncomfortable when she heard Zu Kefa talk about Wei Bao from a person like this on the left and a person like this on the right.

"Hey!" Zukefa stood up and beckoned.

Zu Chuncai didn't know that he was calling himself, and he was arranging things, but the people around him reminded him that Zu Gongzi was calling himself, so hurry over.

"Grandfather, what do you command?" Zu Chuncai said with a flattering face.

"You don't have a problem with your ears, right? Or is Ben Gongzi such a big person standing here, you can't see it? Or is there a problem with the eyes? Zukefa said angrily.

"I was talking to someone, I didn't see my son calling, I was rude, I looked at my ancestor Haihan." Zu Kefa hurriedly said. But my heart exploded, secretly thinking about your mother, where did labor and management provoke you? What are you angry at me? The second monk was confused. Secretly, in terms of seniority, labor and management are still your uncle! Nothing big or small.

However, thinking about it this way, Zu Chuncai also knew that although his family and the ancestral family were of the same clan, there was no reason to judge the size according to the generation, and the ancestral family was the most powerful and prestigious family in Liaoxi and Liaodong. Although he is the master of the prefect, he is afraid that even if he is the ancestor Guangyao, he will not be able to catch up with the status of the ancestral family's housekeeper. Where do you dare to contradict Zu Kefa.

Zu Kefa snorted, and continued: "I said that you are blind and deaf, forget it, your brain is a pig's brain?" Why did you put this man next to us? ”

Zu Kefa said, pointing to Wei Baodao.

Zu Kefa's voice was not small, and it immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.

Wei Bao looked at this young master of the ancestral family in surprise.

Wu Xiang was talking to his acquaintances at the next table, but at this time, he was also attracted back by Zu Kefa, and he didn't know what was going on.

The people at the nearby tables also looked at Zu Kefa.

Zu Kefa didn't feel ashamed at all, but felt very attractive and proud, looked at Wei Bao coldly, pointed at Wei Bao, and repeated to Zu Chuncai: "Do you want this son to say it again?" What is this? Who is eligible to sit at the banquet? Get the hell out of here! ”

Wei Bao Khan, this is the only time to figure out what is going on, I didn't expect that I would be scolded when I participated in a banquet, was I born with a black physique?

"Grandfather, please calm your anger, there are too many people, and the arrangement may be negligent." Zu Chun was afraid that the matter would expand, so he hurriedly apologized in a low voice.

Wu Xiang didn't mean to participate, he looked at Zu Kefa, then at his daughter, and at Wei Bao, and understood what he meant in an instant, guessing, is it jealousy among young people?

Wei Bao and the others naturally understood.

Wei Bao is angry, and his grievances are infinite, in fact, Wei Bao hasn't done anything to Wu Xuexia yet, with his confidence in himself, he secretly thinks that if he really wants to pursue Wu Xuexia, Wu Xuexia has already had a substance with his brother, okay? If it weren't for the brother's temper of the wealthy, it would be your turn to jump up and down next to Wu Xuexia as a wild breed?

"Less finger pointing, no education! I'm sitting here, what's in your way? I am a talent selected by the imperial court! Today's banquet was originally held for our new show, what's the problem? Wei Bao stood up without humility or arrogance. Lang Sheng retorted.

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised, many people had heard of Wei Bao's name for a long time, but they were able to see me today, they probably knew Wei Bao's life experience, and knew that Wei Bao was originally a child of a poor peasant family, and he suddenly appeared recently, but he didn't expect Wei Bao to be so short-tempered with such a family background? Dare to openly criticize the first family of Liaodong on such an occasion? Dare to go against the ancestral family, this is death?

Liu Chunshi was almost scared to death, he had just heard who Zu Kefa was, and looked at his son-in-law nervously.

Wei Bao looked calm.

For Wei Bao, it's not the first time that he has habitually done this kind of thing, no matter what the reason, anyway, if he scolds him in front of a beautiful woman, he can't be coaxed if he doesn't want his life!

Wei Bao has this stinky problem, if there are no beauties, they are all a group of big men, and this kind of thing is nothing like changing seats. You don't want to see Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu likes to sit with your wild species?

Everyone was talking, pointing and pointing, Wu Xuexia looked at Wei Bao's gaze, which was very clear, flashing starry eyes, with a strange throbbing.

Wei Bao, who is weak in appearance and literary in appearance, actually has such a personality, which is what Wu Xuexia was surprised by.

Although she knew that Wei Bao was very angry, and even the Wu family dared to touch it, Wu Xuexia didn't expect that Wei Bao didn't even care about the ancestral family?

The contrast in Wei Bao's cognition made Wu Xuexia feel that Wei Bao had let herself several times before, but he was so 'powerful'.

Wu Xuexia's appearance, which was washed away by Wei Bao's heroic righteousness, all fell into Wu Xiang's eyes, how could the thoughts of the youngest daughter's family escape the eyes of a man of Wu Xiang's age?

There was a moment when Wu Xiang also had a similar thought, with the speed of Wei Bao's recent sudden rise, he said that the talent he showed in studying and doing business was really a rare talent in Liaoxi and Liaodong in the past ten years, or even decades!

Wu Xiang is also very satisfied with Wei Bao's appearance, the handsome guy not only captures the hearts of beautiful women, but also takes advantage of men.

But considering Wei Bao's identity, Wu Xiang only thought about it occasionally.
