Ouyang Kang had just left the Prince Ping's Mansion and met a young man in front of him. He was wearing a simple cotton coat, not riding a horse or riding a sedan chair, and the shoes he walked were covered with a lot of mud, but they didn't feel sloppy at all. Just looking at the face with a gentle smile makes people feel good.

Young Master Ouyang was surprised. Isn’t this the one who borrowed him two cents of silver to save the siege that day?

"Young Master, is it you?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, looked at Ouyang Kang's eyes again, and recognized him, "Why is it such a coincidence? You are also from the Pingwang Mansion?"

This alley is just one family, so he doesn't think about it.

Ouyang Kang was a little surprised, "Is it possible that the young master is also going to the Prince Ping's Mansion? In the Xia Ouyang Kang, he is considered an old neighbor of the Mu family. What do you want to call him?"

The man smiled a little deeper, warm and gentle. "In Xia Kang Shoujing, he has some small relatives with the Mu Mansion. In theory, he should call King Ping to call him cousin."

Oh, it turns out to be my cousin! That's a coincidence.

When Kang Shoujing learned that the person he was ganged that day was his cousin, he seemed very happy. "This was a flood that rushed into the Dragon King Temple and accidentally hit him. But here I have a reluctant request. Can you please stop mentioning the meeting to outsiders that day?"

There is no problem with this, Ouyang Kang didn't gossip so much inquiry. Anyway, his cousin would tell him that he would pay him back after taking the money, so of course Kang Shoujing didn't want it. Ouyang Kang asked him where he lives, so that he could visit him easily.

Kang Shoujing shook his head, "I am currently living in the inn and I have a sick brother, so it may not be very convenient. Let's talk about it when I settle down."

Ouyang Kang said enthusiastically, "If you don't dislike me, even if you come to find me, there are no other ones in my house, and there are two empty houses. It's not too far from here, just in the broken garden in Lirenfang. When you find out about it, everyone knows it."

Kang Shoujing thanked him, and the two bowed again and said goodbye.

When I got home, I saw that Wang Can had been waiting here for a while. I told Ouyang Kang a little bit of news, "The emperor recently planned to punish a group of officials who were ineffective in disaster relief and select another group of people to come out. You group of students from the Imperial College are very likely to have another chance to meet the big test and work hard."

This is good news! Ouyang Kang was originally not from a serious background and was quite suspicious of being a good friend in marriage. If he could seize the opportunity to get a good ranking, wouldn’t he marry his family in the future and wouldn’t he be less gossiping?

He quickly reported to the husband, but Su Cheng seemed not surprised, and only threw him two books of his usual articles, saying, "Although his skills are beyond poetry, he can sharpen his guns in the face of battle. If he is not happy, he will take them to read them. Then write annotations for each article again."

Yes! Young Master Ouyang left with two booklets in his arms. His bitter and revengeful expression made Du Chuan misunderstand, "Are you scolding him again?"

Su Cheng said seriously, "Am I like such a strict teacher? I have always been amiable!"

Du Chuan laughed, but felt relieved.

Ouyang Kang just sat down and was about to work hard, but Zhong Shan was here.

He told him something in a dilemma, "My brother came to me and said he had figured it out and wanted to live a stable life with me."

Ouyang Kang did not give a positive answer. He asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"

Zhong Shan stopped talking.

In fact, although he was happy about Zhuang Ke's sudden change of heart, he was also surprised that even he could not trust this younger brother very much. How could others believe him? Even taking him in?

After thinking about it, Zhong Shan said, "Then I'd better let him find a job first. If he can persevere, he will ask the eldest master to give him a chance. OK?"

This is almost the same. Ouyang Kang didn't care and continued to study.

Zhuang Ke received the reply and was very angry, "It turns out that my brother said he wanted me to stay and live a good life. Is it a lie to me? Even your door dares to take me in. I might as well continue to hang out with my brothers!"

Although Zhong Shan felt a little guilty, he still said in a deep voice, "Even I am just a slave in the Puyuan Garden. Why should I take you home? You don't know what your identity is, why should I take such a great risk to take you in? If you really want to calm down, you can rent a house to settle with the money I gave you last time. First find some work within your ability to earn money to support yourself. Let's talk about anything we have."

Zhuang Ke couldn't do so, so he had to go back and report the situation to Zhuo Ge, and said in confusion, "Why did my brother want me to go to that ghost place? My brother has no ability, but what's the use of being a slave?"

A glimmer flashed through Zhuoge's deep eyes, "Do you know that Su Cheng, who shot you back in the last shot, lives in the broken garden?"

Zhuang Ke's eyes suddenly widened, "That Tana's pearl silver hairpin..."

Zhuoge nodded, "It is very likely that it is in his hands."

Zhuang Ke immediately clenched his fists, "I will find a way to sneak into the Broken Garden, take out the silver hairpin, and avenge myself!"

Zhuo Ge patted him on the shoulder and said nothing more.

Pingwang Mansion.

Due to Kang Shoujing's arrival, Mu Shaoqin and his daughter formally met with the young and old of the Kang family.

Old Aunt Kang, who had been completely irritated for several days, seemed to have found a new target. After meeting, she leaned on her old age and grabbed Nianfu's hand and said something amazing, "Why does this child look so similar to Ajing? I heard that couples who look like each other are the most happy. This is really a destined fate that God can't escape."

Kang Shoujing was extremely embarrassed, and Nianfu looked at the old aunt with his head tilted, deeply believing that she was already dizzy and had a brain that was so unclear that she needed medicine.

He took his little hand back from the old lady's hand without hesitation, and asked naively, "Auntie, are you presbyopia unable to see clearly? My cousin and I don't look like no matter whether it is nose, eyes, eyebrows, or wherever we disassemble."

Old aunt Kang choked up. Unexpectedly, this little girl was not shy at all when she talked about her marriage. She dared to refute her and scolded her for being dizzy. What should I say?

The second aunt Kang reacted quickly and immediately smiled and helped her mother-in-law. "What she looks like is just her appearance. My mother means that you are the eldest niece, you look similar to Ajing, and you both look smiling. Being a husband and wife must be happy and happy."

Nian Fu looked at Kang Shoujing again and smiled, "In this way, my cousin and I are really a bit similar."

After all, he was a child and had no scheming. Old aunt Kang looked at his wife with approval before she wanted to continue saying this.

Nianfu frowned again, "But this doesn't make sense. Everyone looks at the second uncle, but he doesn't like to laugh, but the second aunt loves to laugh. Second aunt, are you not happy as a couple?"

Aunt Kang choked and couldn't hold her face in a choke. But she still smiled reluctantly, "Are we not happy? Otherwise, why can't we even give birth to a son?"

Well said! Old Aunt Kang's eyes lit up. Looking at Nianfu, she looked like looking at a piece of her favorite braised hoof. She quickly spoke, "So, I had long thought about finding a good wife for Ajing. It just so happened that our two families are relatives, and this is the most suitable thing to be more kinship. Shaoqin, we have decided on this matter like this!"

Are you so shameless? Are you prone to being a humble person when getting married? Nianfu complained wildly in his heart and said nothing politely, "My aunt looks at me and my cousin's elephant, but I don't think she looks like her at all. Second Aunt and Second Uncle are not happy, but I think you are so happy. Otherwise, how could the second Uncle only marry second Aunt, and only give birth to a cousin and not take a concubine?"

Looking at the only daughter of Uncle Kang's second family, Kang Jierong, who had been sitting there silently and quietly as the background, the Kang family was blocked again.

Aunt Kang was jealous, and Aunt Kang was stingy and didn't want to support more people, so she didn't take a concubine to Uncle Kang. When she wanted to take care of her later, she had no hope. So she had to have only one daughter, and she had to count on Kang Shoujing to bring one to inherit the incense in the future.

Mu Shaoqin, who had not made a sound, finally spoke. He had an elegant and decent smile on his face, as if he was not affected by the conversation just now. But only those who know him deeply could see from some subtleties that he was not only angry, but also very angry! So as soon as he spoke, he was a killer move.

"My aunt is really joking. Nianfu is my only daughter. I can't bear to let her be someone else's eldest son and be subject to those constraints. My aunt is old, just take care of her grandchildren and there is no need to worry about her."

In one sentence, it completely blocked the road.

Old aunt Kang's face shook, but she still unwilling to give up and pretended to be an elder and taught a lesson, "Shaoqin, how can you do this? Our tutor girl from Mu's family..."

Mu Shaoqin reached out to his daughter, stroked her shoulder lovingly, and interrupted his aunt's words, "We, the tutor of the Mu family, have always cherished the best. Especially now, only this little bit of blood is left. If my parents are alive, I really don't know how to spoil her to heaven."

He suddenly smiled faintly, "But my aunt has been married for many years, and I guess she has been influenced by the rules of the Kang family. It is common for me to forget the rules of our Mu family. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Are you used to living here these days? Are you still good at eating? If you don't adapt to the environment, you have to say it earlier, so I can arrange for someone to take you home."

Is this... I just came and I have to drive people away?

Seeing that his attitude was so tough, the Kang family knew that they were not capable of competing, so they didn't say much about the tactful ones. They were impeccable, but they complained that the place they lived was too remote and wanted to move to the main house.

Why are you living so close to me? Do you want to take advantage of me?

Nianfu rolled his eyes in contempt and wanted to stab them a few times. Kang Shoujing couldn't help it for a long time and interrupted, "We are not living for a long time. This place is already very good. Why bother with my uncle and aunt again?"

"Elder, why are you talking randomly?" Kang Zhongtao, the second uncle of the Kang family, had long disliked Nianfu, but Mu Shaoqin was here, so he couldn't argue with her. At this time, he found an opportunity and immediately started to criticize the mulberry and scold the gods, "There is no rules, just like a countryside!"

Nianfu's face darkened, and he was really angry. What is this? He is still on her territory, really thinks he is a scallion?
