Chapter 345: The Scholar Who Married into the Imperial Examination (23)
Coincidentally, not long ago, he heard that Hang Huaijing married a man.
Haha, most men who marry into a woman's family are desperate, ruffians and hooligans. It's really pitiful that Hang Huaijing is willing to marry her.
He was different. Although he was a concubine's son, his family had arranged a marriage for him. His fiancé was handsome and his family was a merchant. Most importantly, he was the only son in his fiancé's family.
In comparison, he is much luckier than Hang Huaijing.
However, after seeing it with his own eyes today, he finally understood why Hang Huaijing fell for Jiang Zui. It turned out that he was just attracted by her beauty.
He had to admit that Hang Huaijing's husband was indeed quite good.
Jiang Zui replied calmly: "I am Jiang Zui, Jing'er's husband."
Bai Yushu smiled perfunctorily and said, "Sure, Hang Huaijing, I heard a long time ago that you married a husband. I was a little confused at the time... It turns out... Hum, you were attracted by his looks, right?!"
After hearing Bai Yushu's words, Hang Huaijing opened his mouth, wanting to defend himself, but didn't know where to start.
Because what the other party said was right, he did fall in love with Jiang Zui at first sight and was attracted by her sex.
But... saying it directly in front of Jiang Zui is... too embarrassing.
Thinking of this, a blush appeared on Hang Huaijing's ears.
Jiang Zui lowered his eyes slightly and caught sight of Hang Huaijing's red earlobe. A hint of joy flashed across Jiang Zui's eyes, and he stepped out to change the subject, "Excuse me, who are you..."
Bai Yushu raised his eyebrows towards Hang Huaijing, and said with a slight curl of his lips, "Hang Huaijing, shall I introduce you?"
At this time, Hang Huaijing finally reacted and introduced: "Husband, this is Bai Yushu."
"Hello, Mr. Bai." Jiang Zui said politely.
Hang Huaijing asked, "Why did you come to Linyangzhou?!"
"I'm getting married!" Bai Yushu said this with a look of arrogance on his face.
"Oh." Hang Huaijing said lightly.
What does Bai Yushu's marriage have to do with him? !
Bai Yushu was a little angry when she saw Hang Huaijing's calm expression, and she said, "My fiancé is the richest man in Jialin Prefecture - Zhu Shao."
"Oh, what then?"
Upon hearing this, Bai Yushu's eyes froze, the boastful expression on his face froze, and his head was confused.
what's the situation? !
Why doesn't Hang Huaijing envy him? !
He is going to marry the richest man!
Isn't Hang Huaijing envious? !
Bai Yushu said to Hang Huaijing: "I'm here to invite you to the wedding banquet."
"Huh?!" Hang Huaijing asked in surprise.
The relationship between him and Bai Yushu doesn't seem to be that good?!
Why did the other party become so enthusiastic? !
In fact, Bai Yushu wanted Hang Huaijing to witness with his own eyes that she married better than him.
Hang Huaijing just finished speaking, and suddenly reacted, and quickly said: "Well, I know."
At this moment, Zhang Shili and Shi Ziwei suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Zui and others.
Zhang Shili greeted with a smile: "Long time no see, Brother Jiang, Master Hang."
Zhang Shili continued to deliver meals to Shi Ziwei every day, but Hang Huaijing would only deliver meals when he was in the mood. Coupled with Jiang Zui's reminder, the interactions between Hang Huaijing and Zhang Shili gradually became less frequent.
Hearing this, Hang Huaijing frowned, with dissatisfaction in his eyes, and thought to himself:
Brother Jiang?! Master Hang?!
He is already married, but Zhang Shili still calls him Mr. Hang. Shouldn't it be Mr. Jiang?
Shi Ziwei followed closely behind, nodded to Jiang Zui and Hang Huaijing, and said, "Brother Jiang, Mr. Jiang."
After saying this, Hang Huaijing looked at Zhang Shili meaningfully and said, "Shi Xiucai, Shi Fulang, why are you here?"
Zhang Shili smiled but said nothing. Shi Ziwei beside him explained, "I finally got a day off, so I went out for a walk with my husband."
"Shi Xiucai really loves Shi Fulang, unlike Jiang Zui..."
Hang Huaijing was about to speak, but when he saw Jiang Zui's eyes, he braked suddenly.
Bai Yushu: "Hang Huaijing, these two are..."
Hang Huaijing: "Shi Xiucai studied in the same academy as my husband, and the man next to him is his husband."
"Hello, I'm Hang Huaijing's friend, Bai Yushu." Bai Yushu greeted with a smile.
Shi Ziwei and Zhang Shili nodded towards Bai Yushu.
Zhang Shili asked, "Mr. Hang, why haven't I seen you delivering food to Brother Jiang in recent days?"
"Something happened in the mansion." Hang Huaijing's face darkened when he heard Zhang Shili call him Master Hang again.
Zhang Shili turned his gaze towards Jiang Zui and said with a somewhat complaining tone, "By the way, Brother Jiang, I heard from my father and husband that you went to Class B. With your grades, shouldn't you be in Class A?"
After these words came out, Bai Yushu was a little stunned and interrupted: "Wait, Class A? Class B?"
"Mr. Bai, Brother Jiang ranked first in the exam. Logically, he should have been admitted to the best classroom in Moyang Academy. However, Brother Jiang chose Class B." Zhang Shili said with a hint of regret in his tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yushu's pupils widened and he said in shock: "The first case?!"
"Jiang... How could Jiang Zui pass the exam? And even be the top candidate?"
Bai Yushu said this subconsciously.
Unexpectedly, after being heard by Hang Huaijing, he looked furious and asked Bai Yushu directly: "Bai Yushu, what do you mean?"
"I...I don't...it doesn't mean anything." Bai Yushu stammered, "Congratulations!"
Bai Yushu had a fake smile on his face.
He had inquired before coming to Yangzhou, and found out that the husband Hang Huaijing found was just a poor scholar.
And after he came, he hadn't heard anyone mention it.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Zui turned out to be the first suspect in the case!
Jiang Zui is a scholar, what about Hang Huaijing? !
Scholar husband?!
The fact that Jiang Zui was able to get the first place in the exam shows that he has some talent, and he may even be sure to win the provincial examination.
Juren?!
Hang Huaijing turned out to be the future husband of a successful candidate in the imperial examination.
snort!
No wonder! No wonder!
I was wondering why Hang Huaijing would marry a scholar. It turns out it's not only because he's handsome, but more importantly, he's talented.
That’s right, if Jiang Zui is inferior in every aspect, will Hang Huaijing’s father and mother, who love him so much, agree? !
He was wrong!
Is he really still no match for Jiang Zui? !
Thinking of this, Bai Yushu felt more and more ashamed of what he had just said to Hang Huaijing, and he was in no mood to continue entangled with the person in front of him.
So, he made up an excuse and left.
"Well...I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry without waiting for Hang Huaijing to answer.
After Bai Yushu left, Hang Huaijing pretended to be confused and said, "By the way, Mr. Shi, my husband and I are already married, so you should call me Mr. Jiang from now on."
As soon as he finished speaking, the smiles on Zhang Shili and Shi Ziwei's faces froze instantly.
Especially Zhang Shili, he looked at Jiang Zui with an aggrieved expression, pretending to be at a loss: "I...Brother Jiang, I'm Hang...Mr. Jiang, sorry, I'm used to calling you that."
"It's okay, just change it." Hang Huaijing said calmly.
Shi Ziwei, who was standing next to Zhang Shili, only reacted when he heard what Hang Huaijing said.
He...he had just called Hang Huaijing "Mr. Jiang", and Zhang Shili remained the same as usual. Moreover, he had never noticed before that his husband called Jiang Zui "Brother Jiang"!
This... this is a little too intimate.
Suddenly, Shi Ziwei recalled some details that he had never noticed before.
On the day they got married, Zhang Shili had a cold expression on his face and he couldn't even see the other party's happiness. He thought the other party was just nervous.
Also, Zhang Shili came to the academy to bring him meals every day, and it happened that Zhang Shili and Jiang Zui often met.
In addition, Zhang Shili asked him about Jiang Zui again and again.
......
After seeing this series of events, Shi Ziwei's anger instantly rose, and his eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
Jiang Zui said at this time: "Then we won't disturb your date, Brother Shi."
After saying that, Jiang Zui took Hang Huaijing's hand and walked away.
In front of passers-by, Hang Huaijing was held by the hand by Jiang Zui. He felt a little shy and wanted to break free, but Jiang Zui was too strong and he couldn't get away. He had to let Jiang Zui lead the way away.
