Chapter 327: The Scholar Who Married into the Imperial Examination (5)
Jiang Zui opened his mouth and was about to explain, but Hang Huaijing spoke first: "Hello, I'm Jiang Zui's husband-to-be, my name is Hang Huaijing."
After these words were spoken, Shi Ziwei and Zhang Shili were stunned for a moment.
In particular, Zhang Shili looked back and forth at Jiang Zui and Hang Huaijing with questioning eyes.
Zhang Shili saw that Jiang Zui did not refute but agreed.
There was an inexplicable dull pain in my heart.
He still thought... Jiang Zui still had feelings for him...
I didn't expect that just after the mourning period, the other party already has someone he likes.
But...a few days ago, he came to deliver food to Shi Ziwei, and he saw a woman there. The young man was very attentive and considerate to Jiang Zui.
But Jiang Zui quickly rejected the other party without any mercy.
He still thought he was special in Jiang Zui's heart.
He was not bragging, but he had never seen Jiang Zui being nice to any woman or man other than him.
Jiang Zui's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at Hang Huaijing. He had seen the way Jiang Zui looked at him, so he knew that Jiang Zui must have fallen in love with the young man in front of him.
When Shi Ziwei saw that Jiang Zui finally had someone he liked, the heavy stone in his heart also dissipated.
But Hang Huai Jing? !
This name... sounds familiar?!
I seem to have heard it somewhere...
Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind and he remembered!
Could Hang Huaijing be the young man from the Hang family? !
The Hang family is the offspring of Hang Mincai, a wealthy businessman in Linyang Prefecture. The Hang family has only one child, Hang Huaijing, and he is a boy. Therefore, Hang Mincai once said that he wanted to help his younger brother find a man to bring home.
Marry into the wife's family? !
Jiang Zui has actually fallen to the point of marrying into a wife's family? !
Thinking of this, Shi Ziwei felt a sense of secret joy in his heart.
Shi Ziwei pretended to be surprised and said, "Brother Jiang, congratulations!
I wonder...when will you get married?"
Jiang Zui originally wanted to introduce Hang Huaijing as a friend. After all, he and Hang Huaijing were not married nor engaged.
Hang Huaijing is a brother, and he is afraid that the other party’s reputation will be damaged.
But who could blame her husband for getting there first?
Jiang Zui smiled and said, "It will be soon. When the time comes, I will definitely invite Brother Shi and Mr. Shi to the wedding."
Zhang Shili was thinking about Jiang Zui in his mind when he heard the name "Shi Fulang" in a trance.
Suddenly, I reacted.
Now he is married and has a husband.
It was simply despicable that she was thinking about other men in front of her husband.
Zhang Shili silently cursed himself for being shameless.
But...his heart...is out of control...
He can't control his own heart...
He likes Jiang Zui...
It’s a pity... Jiang Zui needs to observe mourning for three years. These three years are too changeable. He is not sure whether Jiang Zui will still be able to pass the examination and become a scholar after three years.
But Shi Ziwei is a good choice.
He had known for a long time that Shi Ziwei liked him.
Besides, although Shi Ziwei's knowledge is not as good as Jiang Zui's, he can still pass the examination to become a scholar.
And sure enough, Shi Ziwei did pass the exam and became a scholar.
This year, Shi Ziwei will take part in the provincial examination in August.
As for Jiang Zui, he is still a student and plans to take part in the college entrance examination next month.
Shi Ziwei is already ahead of Jiang Zui.
Hang Huaijing saw the food box in Shi Ziwei's hand, looked at Zhang Shili with envy, and asked in surprise: "Are you here to deliver food too?"
Hearing what Hang Huaijing said, Zhang Shili subconsciously looked at Hang Huaijing, but saw that he had nothing in his hand, but a little servant followed behind him. The corners of his mouth stiffened instantly, and he said:
"Well, you...you are here to bring food to Brother Jiang as well."
"Yeah, yeah." Hang Huaijing nodded repeatedly and responded: "Your husband is so good to you that he doesn't even let you take a food box."
After saying that, Hang Huaijing glanced at Jiang Zui with anticipation in his eyes.
When Zhang Shili saw Hang Huaijing's envious look, he felt a little proud in his heart.
Although he had no servants, he had a husband.
How could it be like Jiang Zui...
Before he got married, he once sent a meal to Jiang Zui, but was rejected by the other party.
He brought food to the other party with good intentions, but the other party not only did not appreciate it, but also did not eat a single bite. In the end, he even asked him to take the food back. Jiang Zui was too cold!
Zhang Shili could never have imagined that the original owner didn't want people to talk about Zhang Shili and didn't want his reputation to be damaged, so he was extra careful about his behavior many times.
Jiang Zui did not answer, but just looked meaningfully at the servant behind Hang Huaijing.
Suddenly, Hang Huaijing instantly understood what was in Jiang Zui's eyes.
That’s right, with Yuan Le here, there’s no need for Jiang Zui.
Zhang Shili looked at the eye contact between Jiang Zui and Hang Huaijing, and the smile on his lips froze instantly.
Jiang Zui raised his eyebrows and said, "Let's go quickly. Be careful on the road and stay safe."
"Okay, I understand. See you tomorrow." Hang Huaijing said playfully.
After saying that, Hang Huaijing took Yuan Le away from Moyang Academy.
Shi Ziwei saw Jiang Zui staring at Hang Huaijing's back and couldn't help but jokingly said, "Brother Jiang, everyone has gone far away, why are you still looking?"
After hearing this, Jiang Zui slowly came back to his senses, looking a little embarrassed.
Zhang Shili asked in confusion: "Brother Jiang, how did you know Mr. Hang? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
Shi Ziwei frowned, looking a little worried.
Brother Jiang?!
He had never noticed that Zhang Shili addressed Jiang Zui in such a familiar way.
Jiang Zui said with nostalgia in his eyes: "Jing'er and I met by chance in a bookstore."
"Jing'er?!" Zhang Shili said jealously, "Brother Jiang, you're so affectionate when you call me that."
Jiang Zui's eyes moved back and forth between Shi Ziwei and Zhang Shili, and he teased, "How are they like you and Brother Shi?"
Hearing this, Zhang Shili was stunned for a moment, then quickly recovered and leaned towards Shi Ziwei pretending to be shy.
It was obviously a normal conversation, but Shi Ziwei felt it was a little awkward, so he joked, "Brother Jiang, please stop joking."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Ziwei handed the lunch box to Zhang Shili and said, "It will be time for class soon, go back quickly."
Zhang Shili quickly took it and nodded in response, "Yes, okay."
Then, Zhang Shili smiled and said, "Husband, Brother Jiang, I'll leave first."
After Zhang Shili left, Shi Ziwei said seriously, "Brother Jiang, do you know... do you know the identity of Hang Huaijing?"
"Nature knows."
"So... you really want to marry into the family?" Shi Ziwei's tone was full of worry for Jiang Zui, but his expression seemed like he was enjoying the show. He said frankly: "If you... are short of money, I... I can help you a little. You can't be careless about this important matter in your life.
Besides, do you like Hang Huaijing or not? If you don’t like him, don’t delay him.”
Shi Ziwei's words were full of sarcasm, thinking that Jiang Zui was greedy for the Hang family's property.
Jiang Zui looked at Shi Ziwei deeply, until the other party felt a little guilty, then he explained lightly: "I'm not careless! I really like Jing'er."
Seeing that Jiang Zui refused to admit it, Shi Ziwei thought that he was just being stubborn and said dejectedly: "This is your own big deal. Just make the decision and don't regret it later."
"No, I won't regret it." Jiang Zui answered decisively, "It's getting late. If I'm late, the teacher will make me stand in the corner.
Brother Shi, I'm leaving first."
Shi Ziwei looked at Jiang Zui's back and felt a little hesitant.
He wanted Jiang Zui to marry into the Hang family, but he didn't want Jiang Zui to marry into the Hang family.
The Hang family is a wealthy family and very rich.
Although Zhang Jing was once a third-rank official, he had already retired. In addition, Zhang Jing was an honest official, so most of his family's money was invested in Moyang Academy, which provided various subsidies to poor students.
In addition, Zhang Jing had more than one child, Zhang Shili. Although he loved this only brother very much, it was impossible for him to give all his money to him.
But Hang Huaijing is different. The Hang family has only one child, Hang Huaijing, and everything is given to him. If Jiang Zui becomes Hang Huaijing's husband, then the Hang family's property will also become Jiang Zui's.
Shi Ziwei felt a little unbalanced when he thought that Jiang Zui could suddenly have so much money.
He has already destroyed the development path in the dream, so why can Jiang Zui find another way?
But it doesn’t matter, he is now a scholar, while Jiang Zui is still a student.
After this year's provincial examination, he will be able to transform himself into a juren. By then, even if Jiang Zui passes the examination and becomes a scholar, the other party will still be one level lower than him.
What's more, he didn't want Jiang Zui to pass the examination and become a scholar after three years.
Although he cannot compare to Jiang Zui in other aspects, he will always look down upon him in scientific examinations.
His future will be in the imperial court, where he can make things happen with a wave of his hand.
And Jiang Zui could only stay in this small Linyang Prefecture.
Thinking of this, Shi Ziwei calmed down a lot.
