  Chapter 7 Shuixie examination school, predict good and bad luck

   Those who borrow it.

   Those who borrow the scenery are also, or the waterside, or the flower side, the system also follows the state.

  Liuguang Waterside is the place where the old lady of the Lu family usually meets guests. It is located in the Guanchi Garden in Lufu. Next to the waterside, there is a rough stream of Liuguang Pool water flowing in the Guanchi Garden, hence the name.

The waterside pavilion is built next to the pond, facing the water on three sides, and you can see the beautiful scenery of the Glazed Light Pond. The small building has green bricks and green tiles. gas.

  Lu Jing has also visited many gardens in his previous life. In the past three months, he has always come here to greet the old lady and the eldest lady every tenth. According to reason, he should be used to seeing this glazed water pavilion.

   But when he saw the beautiful scenery in the flowing water pavilion again, he still felt the extravagance of the Lu Mansion.

   The Lu Mansion, where Bai Yu worked as a horse for Tang Jin, relies on his ancestors to be cute, even in this ten-mile Changning Street, it is still a first-class luxury.

Lu Jing walked into the main hall of the waterside pavilion, but found that although he had come an hour late as the old lady ordered, there were still two or three children of the Lu family of his generation sitting in front of the sandalwood table in the hall. , focus on reading.

   The old lady of the Lu family, Jun, is extremely strict with her family, but she loves scholars very much.

   She always hoped that the Lu family would have a champion, so whether the Lu family’s children liked reading or not, they would always bring a classic when they came to greet the old lady.

  —except Lu Jing.

   is not Lu Jingqing.

   It was just that Lu Jing knew deeply that because there was something about his mother beating drums and complaining about grievances, the old lady of the Lu family didn't say she hated him, but she could never like him.

   Even if he brought a hundred books with him, the old lady would only think that he was acting on his own, and would give the impression of being opportunistic and good at drilling camps.

   Rather than that, it's better to come lightly and take a brisk drop.

   And... When reading and reading, you need to be quiet and stable. How can you concentrate on reading in such a noisy environment?

   In the main hall of the water pavilion, there are two rows of desks on the left and right. Sitting at the front of the right is a young man with hair like a knife, eyebrows like ink paintings, face like peach petals, and eyes like autumn waves.

   This young man wears a high crown on his head and a silver band on his forehead. He smiles like the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, showing a talent.

   Lu Qiong, the eldest young master of the Lu family, is also Lu Jing's half-brother.

   Sitting at the very front on the left is a tall and straight young man with sword eyebrows and cold eyes.

   This young man is the eldest young master of the Lu family's second residence, and Lu Feng who had asked Lu Jing for Qing Yue before.

  The Lu family has not yet been completely separated, but the old lady had already ordered the two houses to be divided a long time ago.

  The master of the great mansion is also the patriarch of the surname Lu. Lu Shenyuan, who has already assumed the title, is also Lu Jing's biological father. Lu Shenyuan has two sons and two daughters, Lu Qiong is the second and Lu Jing is the third.

   And the master of the second house is named Lu Chongshan, and he has many children, and the eldest young master is Lu Feng.

   The master of the second house is obsessed with the Buddha, and eats fasting and worships the Buddha all day long. The affairs of the second house, big and small, are also handled by Mrs. Zhu of the second house.

   At this time, in the main hall of the water pavilion, besides Lu Qiong and Lu Feng, there is also Lu Jing's cousin Lu Yi, who is also Lu Feng's younger sister.

  Lu Yi was whispering to a stranger next to him.

   This stranger was a young girl, wearing a red dress with a veil on her face, so she couldn't see her face clearly, but Lu Jing could see that she was looking at him curiously.

  Lu Jing glanced at the girl.

   "Could this be Nanheyu?" Lu Jing speculated in his heart.

   Immediately remembered the faint mention in Mallow's words earlier, and the strangers here, only this girl, became more and more convinced of her guess.

The one sitting at the top of the pavilion is naturally the old lady Junning of the Lu family.

   Accompanying him and whispering to Mrs. Ning were Lu Qiong's biological mother and Lu Jing's mother, Mrs. Zhong, who was also the actual caretaker of the Lu family's mansion after Lu Shenyuan was exiled.

  Lu Jing had just walked into the main hall, the old lady was still closing her eyes and resting.

   Madam Zhong's gaze had already fallen on Lu Jing.

   Originally shaking her head, Lu Qiong, who glanced at the old lady and Madam Zhong from time to time, saw that Lu Jing was coming, and immediately put down the books in her hand.

   He said to Lu Jing, "Why is Brother Jing so untimely? Came here to greet the old lady and mother, but asked them to wait for you instead?"

When Lu Feng heard the words, he also turned his head and stared at Lu Jing.

  Lu Jing walked to the center of the main hall and slowly bowed down: "Lu Jing's greetings to grandma and mother."

  Although Mrs. Zhong is not Lu Jing's biological mother, but in the family law, Mrs. Zhong, the first-born mother, is more intimate than the biological mother of the concubine.

   After paying respects to the two elders above, Lu Jing stood up again and greeted the two elder brothers Lu Qiong and Lu Feng.

  Lu Feng waved his hand and continued to lower his head to read.

   Lu Qiong's eyes were more interested, and he stroked his hand: "Brother Jing, you are bold, you are late and don't apologize first..."

"Qian'er, I asked Lu Jing to come a few moments later." The old lady still didn't open her eyes, but Madam Zhong said softly, "I heard that Lu Jing was studying hard these days, so I thought of calling him. Come later and test his knowledge."

  Lu Qiong immediately shrank his head when he heard the words, lowered his head and pretended to read a book, lest things like "testing school knowledge" would fall on his head.

  Lu Jing's long hair fell down, but his eyes didn't change at all.

   He stood in the center of the main hall, and all eyes were on him.

   Including the girl in red with a veil on her face.

   The red-clothed girl's eyes sparkled, and she said in her heart, "This Lu Jing is quite calm, and the impression he gave me today is actually much calmer than when he was studying yesterday..."

   The girl sitting in the main hall of the water pavilion in front of her eyes is not the Nan Heyu that Lu Jing had guessed.

   It was Sheng Zi, the girl who talked to Lu Yi yesterday.

   Sheng Zi was not the only one who thought that, Madam Zhong also felt that she had not seen him for a few days, and Lu Jing's demeanor suddenly changed a lot from a timid young boy.

   At this moment, Lu Jing was standing in the center of the main hall, his body was not leaning, and his arms were hanging down naturally. Even when Madam Zhong's eyes swept across, Lu Jing did not avoid it, but went up to him quite naturally.

   is like a...a diligent and conscientious scholar who is not stained by foreign objects.

   "That's surprising." Madam Zhong was surprised, but her face remained calm.

  Lu Jing didn't know that the life character of [diligence and hard work] was not only beneficial to visualization and study.

  Because of this fate, his bearing, and even the perception and impression of others on him, have undergone very slight changes because of this.

   "You have been studying hard for a long time, and you must have a good understanding of Confucian classics. I want to take the exam today. Lu Jing, what do you think?"

   Mrs. Zhong spoke softly, and the fringed long skirt swayed slightly due to the wind in the hall, and her demeanor was quite noble.

"The young lady of the Nanguo Gongfu came in person, probably to have a look at me, look at the person, and taste the nature... It's like buying a horse, looking at the horse's legs and looking at the horse's temperament. Are you hesitant to 'marry' me?"

  Looking at this, Lu Jing felt a surge of anger in his heart for no reason.

   In the world, marriage has always been the word of the matchmaker for parents.

   But when it came to Lu Jing, the Duke of Nanguo’s government nodded his head to propose a marriage, and the old lady of the Lu family and Mrs. Zhong had already agreed.

  The marriage certificate has been sent twice, and even Lu Jing's life deed has been handed over to the household registration department as early as half a year ago, and it was recorded in the outer book of Nanfu.

   Now, they should have been married long ago.

   But now, not only has Nanfu postponed the engagement again and again, but Nan Heyu even has to visit him in person before making a decision... This is too ironic.

   It's not that Lu Jing wants to go to Nanfu to eat soft rice, but the attitude of Nanfu...

   can't help but make the current Lu Jing a little angry.

   "Nanguo Gongfu has proposed marriage before, but Nan Heyu has repeatedly broken the contract, and he is not a person of integrity. Qingyue always hopes that I can enter the Nanfufu and become a wealthy family from now on...

   But how could this rich man be so good? "

   These few things made Lu Jing have no good feelings for Nan Heyu.

   "Now I have the idea of ​​King Daming, and getting married is not my only way out. Since Nan Heyu has repeatedly disliked me and is unwilling to perform the contract, then I will fulfill her wish."

   Lu Jing's thoughts turned around, and he didn't even look at the girl in red next to him, but remained silent all the time, as if he was afraid of being admitted to the school.

   Mrs. Zhong frowned when she saw Lu Jing's reaction, and sighed inwardly, "The son of the boat girl, still can't get on the stage."

She coughed lightly: "Lu Jing, I have read about Zhongzheng, and I realize that Zhongzheng is the way to behave in the world, and I also know that it is Zhongzheng. I am a woman and Taoist family, and I don't know much about Confucian classics. Do you know that? Have a deeper understanding?"

   Mrs. Zhong had hated Lu Jing very much since that incident eight years ago, but she didn't want to be known as "jealous woman" and "no child", and she had never beaten and abused Lu Jing.

   But among the big clans, just being treated differently can wear away the heart of a young man.

   Madam Zhong has made Lu Jing's mother and son miserable for the past eight years.

   At this juncture, Mrs. Zhong did not pose any problems for Lu Jing, but asked such a subjective question with a very low threshold and a strong tolerance.

   "Probably hope that I can answer better and perform better in front of Nan Heyu. In this way, I can also leave the Lu family faster and not obstruct the eyes of everyone in the Lu family."

  Lu Jing chuckled in his heart.

   He was about to pretend to be ignorant and speechless, so he fulfilled Nan Heyu's wish and strengthened her determination to repent of the marriage.

  Suddenly, another piece of information exploded in my mind!

   [The gentleman is a tool, and its sharpness should be sharp. 】

  【Mrs. Zhong is taking the exam for you, you have the following options: 】

   [Ferocious: Ai for a long time, stammering, studying hard for eight or nine years, but a joke.

   Profit: Get the life palace of "Zangzhuo (Red and get a chance to be red.

   Disadvantage: Disgusted by several people, and will be punished by the family law of the old lady Ning. 】

  【Ji: Express your heart to the best of your ability, and strive to be perfect within your ability, so that everyone will be dumbfounded by your performance.

   Profit: Gained the goodwill of several people, got "participate in research (red) life palace, got a white chance.

   Disadvantage: Disgusted by Mrs. Zhong and Mrs. Ning. 】

  【Big murderer: Refused to answer, Madam Zhong asked, and she angrily reprimanded her for her usual viciousness.

  Lee: Get "No father and no mother (yellow) life palace, get a yellow chance.

   Disadvantage: Great ominous, most likely to die because of it. 】

   In just a split second, the image of good and bad was clearly imprinted in Lu Jing's mind.

   Lu Jing was stunned, and began to quickly speculate on his next choice.
