Chapter 080: Unintentionally inserted into the willows
"By the way, what's the second question he gave you?" Zhao Yuanrong asked Zhao Yuanxuan with some curiosity.
She had answered Ji Ning's question last time, and felt that Ji Ning's question was very different from ordinary people, with a kind of mysterious reasoning.
It seems that this kind of reasoning obtained in the process of solving problems can be applied to real life, and it is not as simple as simply solving a problem.
Therefore, she was a little looking forward to Ji Ning's second question.
When Zhao Yuanxuan heard this, her pretty face was completely bitter, and she was really a little shocked by Ji Ning's confidence.
After listening to Zhao Yuanxuan's question of weighing elephants, Zhao Yuanrong's beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up, and the entire study seemed to be more than ten times brighter.
"Good question!" Zhao Yuanrong couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Zhao Yuanxuan said disdainfully: "Where's the good?" That big liar has tried his best to solve some problems that are out of the way, and he has the ability to come up with a real talent that really needs to be learned! ”
Zhao Yuanrong shook his head slightly with a smile and said, "Sister, you are wrong. Ji Ning's two questions are very practical. ”
For example, in the first way, in the process of solving the problem, we come to a reasoning: that is, a number is infinitely superimposed with a number twice as small as it, then the result must be twice that number. This reasoning can be flexibly applied to some real-world estimates. By inference, we can have an infinite superposition of a number that is three times smaller, an infinite superposition of a number that is four times smaller, and an infinite superposition that is ten times smaller...... In short, by extension, it is a great science. ”
"Yes, is it that exaggerated?" Zhao Yuanxuan said in disbelief.
Zhao Yuanrong said affirmatively: "Sister, you don't know if you haven't dealt with affairs, sometimes counting is a headache." In my eyes, Ji Ning's first topic is very valuable. ”
"The second topic is not insignificant."
"Isn't it? Does it also make sense to call elephants? Zhao Yuanxuan was even more unconvinced.
Zhao Yuanrong smiled and said: "Of course it makes sense, if you change the name of the elephant to call it other huge things, do you still think it is meaningless?" ”
"This ......," Zhao Yuanxuan was speechless for a while.
Zhao Yuanrong summed it up and said: "So, don't look at Ji Ning with prejudiced eyes, this person may be a real pillar of talent!" ”
Zhao Yuanxuan couldn't laugh or cry for a while.
If Ji Ning heard Zhao Yuanrong's words, he would also smile bitterly.
The conscience of heaven and earth, he just wanted to punish Zhao Yuanxuan for having nothing to do to get in his way, and he really didn't think so far-reaching.
After Zhao Yuanrong said the above words, he didn't continue to sort out the information of the main talents who participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting, and thought hard about how to call an elephant.
……
……
said that the great housekeeper of the Chongwang Mansion, although he didn't know why Zhao Yuanxuan asked him to leave for Ji Mansion after half an hour, he still honestly waited for half an hour before leaving.
During this period, he asked the people below to prepare a 50-year-old ginseng plant, a 100-year-old He Shou Wu plant, and a few Ganoderma lucidum flowers from the previous year.
The chief housekeeper had already guessed that Ji Ning was pretending to be sick and refusing the invitation from the Chongwang Mansion, but Ji Ning was a distinguished guest that the county lord Zhao Yuanxuan attached great importance to.
Therefore, he simply pretended to really think that Ji Ning was sick, and then Chongwangfu Lixian Corporal sent him, the big butler, to personally condole.
With gifts and invitations, the chief butler got into the carriage of Chongwang's Mansion and finally went to Ji Mansion from the hair.
The trip of the great housekeeper of the Chongwang Mansion immediately attracted the attention of many people.
It turned out that because of the Mid-Autumn Festival Poetry Meeting, Chongwang's Mansion suddenly became the focus of the entire Jinling City.
In particular, the news that Princess Wenren will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival in Chongwang's Mansion and participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting has spread like a fly this morning, and the entire Jinling City is boiling.
Princess Wenren is not an ordinary princess, not only is she the most favored by the emperor and queen today and is the first beauty in the world, but also has a good reputation in the Dayong Dynasty.
In addition, Princess Wenren is eighteen years old and unmarried, and now she suddenly appeared in Jinling City for the Mid-Autumn Festival and participated in the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting, which made countless unmarried young talents in Jinling City think about it.
Outside the Chongwang Mansion, there are countless people of all kinds, in addition to inquiring about the news, more of them are trying to find relationships and spend a lot of money, just to ask for an invitation to the Mid-Autumn Festival poetry meeting in the Chongwang Mansion.
The car of the chief manager of the Chongwang Mansion immediately attracted the attention and speculation of countless people, and even many people sent people to follow quietly. Some people followed in person, intending to find a way from the big butler.
As a result, there were too many people who quietly followed the car of the big housekeeper of Chongwang Mansion, and inadvertently formed a large team behind the car of the big housekeeper of Chongwang Mansion.
As a result, a strange scene appeared on the streets of Jinling City, a luxurious Chongwangfu car drove on the street, followed by a large team of carriages or horses or people, passing through the streets and alleys.
The car of Chongwangfu drove all the way, and finally arrived at the gate of the Ji Mansion to stop, and the large team following behind also stopped.
However, everyone in the large team couldn't help but wonder, wondering why the dignified Grand Butler of the Chongwang Mansion stopped in front of an ordinary house at this critical time? Could it be that the big housekeeper of the Chongwang Mansion went out just to go to this ordinary house?
Under the puzzled gaze of everyone, Zhao An, the chief butler of Chongwang Mansion, really got out of the carriage and walked to the gate of the ordinary house.
Moreover, the two subordinates of the Chongwang Mansion who followed Zhao An each held a large brocade gift box in their hands.
"This, this ......" everyone suddenly understood in surprise, "The chief butler of the Chongwang Mansion actually sent the invitation in person!" What kind of person is such a big face?!! ”
Everyone couldn't help but gasp.
They didn't go directly to the Ji Mansion, and they didn't see the word "Ji Zhai" for the time being.
I saw Zhao An walking to the gate of Ji Mansion and knocking on the door with his own hands.
"It's coming!" He An, who was picking up money with a basket in the courtyard, heard a knock on the door and answered loudly, thinking that Ji Ning had returned from visiting the Qin Mansion with Yuling.
"You keep picking up money." He An said a word to the Qin Mansion who had borrowed money to help pick up the money, and then went to open the door.
As the door opened a crack in the door, He An unexpectedly saw that it was not his young master standing outside the door, but a middle-aged man with a big belly, luxurious clothes, and a kind smile on his face.
He Anleng paused, and immediately stabilized the crack in the door that continued to widen.
The courtyard inside is littered with copper coins all over the yard, and it would be too unpleasant for the guests to see it. If it is spread out again, it will definitely be laughed at by the entire Jinling City.
Therefore, as a last resort, He An could only bite the bullet, block the crack of the door with his body, and ask Zhao An: "May I ask who you are ......?"
"Hello, below is Zhao An, the chief butler of Chongwang's Mansion," Zhao An arched his hand and said, "My master learned that Ji Gongzi was sick, and specially sent Zhao to visit and comfort your master on his behalf." ”
When He An heard this, he "chuckled" in his heart, and immediately guessed that Ji Ning's pretending to be sick was known by the Chongwang Mansion.
"The little one on behalf of my young master, thank you for the kindness of the Chongwang Mansion." He An stubbornly said, "It's just that my young master went out to see a doctor." Presumably, after seeing the doctor, the body recovered. Chongwangfu's kindness, we understand it, and another day, my young master will definitely prepare a generous gift to thank you in person. Steward Zhao, you are busy with affairs, please go back. ”
If a guest comes to the door with good intentions, it stands to reason that he must immediately invite him to the house, especially since the other party is the high housekeeper of the Chongwang Mansion, but the situation in the courtyard really can't be seen by outsiders. Therefore, He An had no choice but to rudely let the other party go back.
"Hehe, Zhao is not busy." Zhao An smiled kindly, "Since Ji Gongzi has gone out to see the doctor, Zhao is waiting for him to come back at the door." ”
If he didn't personally hand over the invitation to Ji Ning, what would he take back to hand over to the county lord Zhao Yuanxuan? I have already been reprimanded once, should I make another mistake, make my master angry, and then dismiss him as a great steward? I have to wait for Ji Ning to come back in person!
In addition, he could see from He An's reaction that He An was in some reason and would not invite him into the house. Therefore, he simply offered to wait for Ji Ning at the door.
