Chapter 887 Meaningful things (2)

When Fu Jingen came over, she brought a pot of roses to Qingshu.

Qingshu looked at the bright rose and liked it very much: "Where did you get it?"

Fu Jingen said with a smile: "I saw it in the street market. If you know you like it, you will buy the most beautiful one."

Because he knew that Qingshu liked flowers and plants, he planned to wait until the vegetables were collected and then built into a flower garden. After Qingshu married, he would plant whatever he wanted.

"Lin Fei, put the flowers in my house."

Fu Jingen came here this time to talk to Qingshu about An's affairs: "After a period of investigation, I think Tan Jingye, the nephew of the Hanlin Academy, the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, is very good."

Qingshu immediately became energetic: "How is it a good method?"

Fu Jingen said: "The Tan family is a large family in Heze. Now there are six officials, and eight young juren. Tan Jingye has three brothers, and he ranks second, and Lord Tan is his uncle."

Mrs. Gu hopes to find a child from a big family for An An so that she can help her in the future if there is anything. So Tan Jingye’s background meets her requirements.

Qingshu was a little surprised and asked, "You mean, Tan Jingye is the eldest son of the lineage?"

Fu Jingen nodded and said, "Yes, Tan Jingye's father is the eldest son of their house. However, because he broke one leg accidentally after passing the exam and was not cured and was disabled, he was unable to take the scientific examination."

There are also requirements for scientific examinations. Not only should one have a clear and innocent life experience be able to check for five generations, but one must also have good health and no disability.

"How is he himself?"

Fu Jingen smiled and said, "He looks pretty and gentle, has no outstanding talent but is very hardworking."

Qingshu hesitated a little.

Fu Jingen said bluntly: "Qingshu, if everything is good, it will not be An'an's turn. The Tan family will definitely choose a better girl for him."

The key is that An An is a talented person who is a girl with a good family and her family background is not good. It is not realistic to find her in all aspects to be excellent. If you want to have an outstanding person to like her, Fu Jingen has to worry that the other party has other intentions!

Qingshu sighed inwardly. She actually wanted to find An An with good conditions, but unfortunately the reality did not allow it.

"What does the Tan family mean?"

Fu Jingen said: "Tan Jingye is not valued at home, as long as he agrees to the marriage himself, there will be no problem."

However, Fu Jingen is a well-intentioned person and will not suffer any further: "I mentioned this matter to Lord Tan in a vague way, but he had no objection. He said that as long as Tan Jingye agreed, he would let Mrs. Tan come to propose marriage."

After hearing this, Qingshu felt that it was not right and asked, "No matter what, Tan Jingye has a reputation as a juren, and he also came to Beijing to study. Lord Tan does not seem to pay attention to him?"

Generally, scholars attach great importance to outstanding children in their families. After all, the most important thing about scholarly families is to produce talents.

Fu Jingen smiled and said, "Didn't I just say that Tan Jingye is not outstanding in his knowledge? No one had hope during the local examination, but he actually passed the exam. Although the ranking is very poor and the second to last, he passed the exam."

"Then he's lucky."

Fu Jingen agreed with this: "Yes, luck is very good. How many people fail the Juren in their lifetime and they will pass the exam in one go. But I think luck is also very important. If you have talent but no luck, you will not be able to succeed in your lifetime. It is useless to have luck but no talent. Like Tan Jingye, it is good to have talent and luck."

Qingshu was a little puzzled and asked, "He got the second to last exam and his family was willing to send him to Beijing to study. Why do you still say that he is not worthy of his family?"

Fu Jingen shook his head and said, "The Tan family disagreed with him coming to Beijing to study. He insisted on coming to Beijing. He lived in Tan's house when he came to Beijing, but he moved out after the exam. Now he rented a house with several other scholars from poor families."

"Didn't you say he is gentle? Why can't he live in Tan's house anymore?"

Fu Jingen smiled and said, "A gentle person does not mean that he is weak and can be bullied. On the contrary, he is very independent. The Tan family treats him badly, so he moves out if he doesn't want to be looked down upon. After moving out, he has no money to eat and stay, so he copys books and sets up a stall to write letters to others.

"Qingshu, you can endure hardships even if you have backbone. As a child of aristocratic family, you can put down your posture. Apart from being a little worse at learning, I don't think there is anything to choose."

Qingshu asked a little strangely: "Since he is so good, why do you still have to investigate him?"

Fu Jingen smiled and said, "I heard about him before that he was worried that he had a bad temper, so that would be inappropriate to An An. But after contacting him, he found that his temper was very gentle, so he would be very compatible with An An."

Qingshu nodded and continued to ask, "I heard you think he is pretty good, but why does the family members of such a good child like him?"

A trace of disdain flashed across Fu Jingen's face: "He was born upside down and caused Mrs. Tan to suffer a serious crime, so Mrs. Tan felt that he was unlucky and always hated him."

"What about Mr. Tan?"

Fu Jingen shook his head and said, "Mr. Tan is not a superstitious person, he treats their brothers equally. He is also Mr. Tan, so he can only enter the tribe at the age of three and five to study. However, Mr. Tan is sick and does not care about common affairs, so he suffered a lot."

He just wanted to find An An who had suffered and sinned and understood the worldly ways, and Tan Jingye met his requirements very well.

Qingshu nodded and said, "It sounds good, I'll ask An An. If she thinks it's good, let's arrange for them to meet. If An An is satisfied, we will tell my grandmother."

This is also a warning to Mrs. Gu who thinks Tan Jingye is good and will settle the marriage regardless of An'an's wishes. Qingshu would rather be late than cause any more trouble.

Fu Jingen naturally had no objection: "It's easy to see him. When he was in the market, he would set up a stall to help people write letters in Xicheng on the excuse of setting up a stall."

An An went to see the other person's appearance, and she could see what other things could be seen.

Qingshu nodded.

Thinking about what he was going to do, Qingshu thought about how to speak.

Fu Jingen is so keen. As soon as she saw her, she asked, "Qingshu, I said that you should tell me no matter what, and let's discuss it together if you have any difficulties."

Qingshu nodded and said, "Jingen, I don't want to do it in the Ministry of Rites."

"Then what are your plans in the future?"

Qingshu told him what he thought in his heart: "Jingen, I want to go to the Ministry of Justice."

“When did you start to have this idea?”

Qingshu said: "Since last year, I have been reading various criminal investigation books, and I have also found a few old captains to listen to the various problems they will encounter when solving the case."

"Have you had this idea since last year?"

Seeing Qingshu nodded, Fu Jingen said: "The eldest princess has no influence in the Ministry of Justice. If you want to go to the Ministry of Justice, you will not only be excluded, but may also be bullied."

"I have considered all these but I am not afraid. But I am not afraid of it at the Ministry of Rites and I am not doing anything, and I am a corpse-like meal. It is because I want to go to the Ministry of Justice that I have been holding it over, otherwise I would have quit this job."
