Chapter 265 My wife is afraid that I will be hungry


    Old Li Tou wanted to give some advice.


    Qin Chi spoke first: "Cuihua Hutong is full of ordinary officials, and there are very few people riding carriages. I don''t want to be special. Don''t forget, I am just a scholar from a poor family, and I don''t have any extra money to support my family."


    "Uncle Li, listen to my husband."


    Song Jin laughed at the side and said, "Doctor Jing said that my husband, walking around more is good for your health."


    Lao Li didn''t force himself.


    Qin Ba put on the boy''s clothes and was going to follow him, but Qin Chi insisted on carrying the food box and leaving.


    Song Jin''s eyelids twitched.


    I always feel that something is not right with Qin Chi today.


    Sure enough, as soon as Qin Chi walked out of the gate, someone came out of the house opposite. He was wearing the same official uniform as Qin Chi. He should also be on duty at the Hanlin Academy.


    The man stood on the steps in front of the door, looked Qin Chi up and down, with a senior attitude that made people uncomfortable, and then walked down the steps to the middle.


    He straightened his clothes and straightened his chest.


    Seeing that Qin Chi didn''t express anything for a long time, he coughed lightly again.


    Qin Chi raised the corner of his mouth and smiled calmly: "What a coincidence, Mr. Dong, are we leaving together? I''m holding a food box in my hand, so it''s inconvenient for me to hold it in my hand as a salute. Please forgive me."


    "Master Qin, don''t you know that there are meals provided at noon in the Yamen?" When Master Dong spoke, his voice was slightly sharp, and coupled with his rather gloomy face, it was difficult for people to like him.


    As if Qin Chi didn''t notice, he lifted up his food box and said, "My wife is worried that I am hungry and insists on letting me take it with me. There is nothing I can do."


    Dong Xingde''s expression froze when he heard this.


    Suddenly he snorted coldly, and strode away first as if he didn''t want to be with him.


    Qin Chi smiled and followed him.


    We walked another dozen steps.


    I met another official who was going to the Yamen. The official greeted him warmly, "Isn''t this Qin Zhuangyuan? I''m going to report today. I won''t have a few more days to rest."


    "Report early and feel at ease, so you don''t have to worry about it all the time at home, right?" As soon as Qin Chi said this, the people who listened were stunned for a moment, and then laughed.


    Isn’t this the case for all scholars who have just entered the court and become officials?


    Then the man saw the conspicuous food box in Qin Chi''s hand, "Are you taking it to the Yamen?"


    "My wife is afraid that I will be hungry, so she has to give up..."


    Qin Chi approached the man and chatted while walking.


    The aloof No. 1 Scholar fell from the altar, and instantly narrowed the distance between him and normal people. It can be said that Qin Chi was rare and approachable, and he would not be able to recognize his position without being nominated for the gold list.


    Song Jin at the door.


    When I saw these accidentally, I was immediately speechless.


    When Qin Ba and Lao Litou heard this, their mouths twitched.


    If their young master does something like this, I''m afraid most of the people in the capital will know that the new number one scholar and his wife are deeply in love.


    Song Jin stood inside the threshold and saw Old Man Hong beside him.


    "Uncle Hong, who is Mr. Dong?"


    "Dong Xingde, the last top scholar, was an errand in the Hanlin Academy. Like the young master, he also came from a poor family." Old Man Hong didn''t understand Qin Chi''s operation at first, but now he understands what Qin Chi did. "The young master said that we should learn from Dong Xingde."


    "It is rumored that the top scholar with a criminal record is sitting on the bench in the Hanlin Academy?"


    Song Jin suddenly felt that Qin Chi was a bit wicked.


    I specially moved to Cuihua Hutong, where ordinary officials live, and it is also the house opposite the former champion.


    The former and current champions live across from each other.


    Just step out and you''ll hit it.


    When others talk about Qin Chi''s move, they inevitably mention him as a former criminal. Since Dong Xingde sat on the bench in the Hanlin Academy for three years, we know that his popularity is not very good.


    When I met him today, his personality was indeed unpleasant.


    With his criminal record as a comparison, Qin Chi''s existence can be called a white lotus in the world. The more people look at him, the more pleasing they are. This is especially obvious when he arrives at the Hanlin Academy.


    This person is afraid of comparison.


    Song Jin saw through it but didn''t say anything, "I''ll send food to the neighbor later, and give a double portion to the opposite door."


    Old Man Hong was confused.


    Even other people don''t understand.


    Song Jin just went to the kitchen to talk to the cook.


    The carriage carrying things also brought a letter to Song Jin.


    The letter was written by Xing Lun.


    The content was that the Liu family''s purchasing manager found him again as Song Jin expected and invited him to a restaurant for a chat. After three rounds of drinking, he offered to buy medicinal materials at half the price.


    Xing Lun declined on the spot.


    The Liu family was unyielding and even threatened.


    Xing Lun had already left Shuntian Mansion with his fleet last night. Song Jin looked at him, his face was terrifyingly calm.


    After reading the letter, it was burned.


    "Ah Qi, go outside and ask if there are any rumors that the Liu family is bullying others and scaring away the drug dealers." Song Jin said to Qin Qi beside him.


    Qin Qi respectfully agreed and went out to investigate.


    It''s approaching noon.


    Song Jin heard the rumors outside.


    It was said that the Liu family was interested in the medicinal materials of a certain pharmacist and threatened to sell them to the Liu family at half price. If they did not sell, they would not be able to do business.


    The merchant was so cowardly that he fled the capital overnight!


    The rumors were stopped at noon and did not cause much trouble.


    Qin Qi said: "When the Liu family heard the rumors, they immediately punished the purchasing manager. Telling the outside world that this matter was purely a misunderstanding."


    "Oh, I see."


    Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!


    Song Jin knew that this matter would not cause much trouble to the Liu family, so he was not disappointed.


    A thousand-mile embankment collapsed in an ant nest.


    Take your time.


    …


    Hanlin Academy.


    All officials took a break at noon.


    Qin Chi spent the whole morning learning about his future work. The person responsible for acquainting him with the work was Dong Xingde.


    When Qin Chi thought that the other party would make things difficult for him, although the other party still had a bad look on his face, he explained the work process in detail and reminded him of things that needed to be paid attention to.


    "Master Dong, it''s time to eat."


    The servant in charge of chores came over and delivered lunch meals to Dong Xingde.


    A bowl of rice, a portion of boiled vegetables and boiled meat slices.


    Qin Chi took out the food box he brought and asked the handyman to help heat up the food.


    Originally, Dong Xingde was used to eating.


    When he saw the handyman bringing the hot food to him, Dong Xingde suddenly felt that his food was a bit hard to swallow.


    At first glance, the other party''s food didn''t look outstanding. It consisted of braised pork ribs with a strong aroma, a portion of green stir-fried cabbage, a nourishing soup, and a bowl of rice.


    Obviously a very ordinary meal.


    It''s so tempting that people can''t take their eyes away.


    Looking back at his own, the wilted boiled vegetables and pure boiled meat slices could not arouse his appetite at all.


    The free lunch provided by the small kitchen of Hanlin Academy is boiled vegetables and meat all year round, no matter whether everyone gets tired of it or not. Someone once raised an opinion, but was unanimously scorned. They said it was a tradition of the Hanlin Academy. The reason was a bit nonsense. They said it was about cultivating one''s moral character, caring for the common people, etc.


    Qin Chi learned about the Hanlin Academy in advance.


    He also knew about lunch, but he couldn''t figure out what relationship a lunch had to all the people in the world.


    "Master Dong, do you want to eat together?"


    Qin Chi issued a polite invitation.


    Dong Xingde refused with a straight face and said: "Sage Kong said: The superior is the model of the people. Officials should set an example, establish a good demeanor, and lead the people forward. You have just entered the court as an official, so you should be diligent and thrifty-"


    "Hey, I finally found it!"


    A fat, white official came over, holding a bowl of rice.


    His eyes lit up as soon as he saw the braised pork ribs in front of Qin Chi, "Qi''an, you''ve finished your meal..."


    "Master Yan..."


    Qin Chi stood up to salute.


    The person who came was a bachelor, the boss of Qin Chi''s immediate superior. When he saw Qin Chi wanting to salute, he quickly stopped him and said, "No need to be polite, no need to be polite! From now on, we are all colleagues and a family."


    "Sir, would you like to have dinner together?"


    Qin Chi took the initiative to invite the other party, "My wife has prepared a slightly larger portion. I''m afraid I won''t be able to finish it by myself."


    "Okay, I''ll help you eat something."


    As Mr. Yan spoke, he stretched out his chopsticks towards the braised pork ribs. The aroma of the pork ribs made him want to cry, "Why didn''t I think about bringing rice before? Why did I stupidly eat boiled white meat for more than ten years? This is human What did you do?"


    He pretended to cry while eating.


    Qin Chi''s mouth twitched slightly.


    In just such a short time, half of the braised pork ribs were missing. Qin Chi quickly joined the eating procession, eating gracefully and gracefully. This is the upbringing and demeanor that comes from his bones. It is hard to imagine that he just comes from a peasant background.


    Wait until the meal is finished.


    The distance between people has also narrowed unconsciously.


    This is exactly Qin Chi''s purpose.
