Chapter 2688 2690 [Poetry expresses aspirations]
Xiang Nan then applied for an independent office with the principal.
The principal naturally agreed readily to his request.
Soon, he was given a special office.
After having an independent office, if he wants to do something else, he won''t be afraid of being ruined.
…
"Lao Qi, your poem "Qinyuan Spring and Autumn" is well written." In the evening, Jin Quan went home for dinner. After seeing Xiang Nan, he praised it with a smile.
“Hey, Lao Qi has written a new poem, please listen to it.” Runzhi said curiously after hearing it.
Xiang Nan then recited "Qinyuan Spring and Autumn".
Minzhi, Runzhi, Meili and others all nodded after hearing this.
“Lao Qi, this poem of yours is so powerful. [Ask who is responsible for the ups and downs of the vast earth], good words.” Jin Minzhi said with a smile.
“Songs express emotions, and poems express ambitions.” Jin Quan nodded and smiled, “Yanxi, you can write such a majestic poem, it shows that your ambitions are still lofty.”
?Although the three sons of the Jin family are all involved in politics, they are just dawdling around, and none of them wants to achieve anything. Only Lao Qi started to look around and was a guy who only knew how to eat and wait to die.
Unexpectedly, he has completely transformed over the past six months. His ambition can be seen from this poem. He will be the only one who will inherit his legacy in the future.
"Thank you for the compliment, father." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Actually, I don''t have much ambition. I just hope to maintain the reputation of the Jin family and protect the safety of the whole family."
“Isn’t this called not having much ambition?” Jin Quan said with a smile.
??The Jin family has always been a family of officials since the generation of the great-great-grandfather, and no one has lower than the second-grade official position. If Xiang Nan can really maintain the reputation of the Jin family, he will at least be a high-ranking official at the ministerial level. It is no longer easy to achieve this step.
Just like Gong Xihua''s ambition, "If the affairs of the ancestral temple are to be unified and Duan Zhangfu is in charge, I would like to be the junior prime minister." Being able to participate in sacrifices in the ancestral temple and the alliance of princes is not a small ambition.
…
Turning around, Leng Qingqiu took a gift box and gave it to Xiang Nan.
"My uncle said, Teacher Jin, you were injured while trying to save me, and I was really sorry. So I bought a ginseng root, hoping that Teacher Jin could nourish it," she said to Xiang Nan.
"Why do you need to spend so much money? In fact, I''m already fine." Xiang Nan waved his hand when he saw this.
?? Wild ginseng is not cheap. A small one costs forty or fifty yuan, and if it''s the thickness of your index finger, it costs hundreds of dollars. With Song Runqing''s monthly salary, if you buy this wild ginseng, you must be bleeding.
"Teacher Jin, please accept it. Uncle will definitely let you accept it." Leng Qingqiu said awkwardly.
In fact, how could a smart person like her not see that her uncle had been trying to curry favor with Xiang Nan. Only this wasn''t what she wanted.
"Okay, I can accept it. But from now on, you have to promise me to only call me Teacher Jin in class. When we are alone together, you have to call me by my name..." Xiang Nan held Leng Qingqiu''s hand. Hands.
Leng Qingqiu suddenly blushed. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded, "Yan... Yanxi..."
“I didn’t hear you clearly, call me again.” Xiang Nan said.
“Yanxi~” Leng Qingqiu raised his voice.
“Still not heard clearly, please speak louder.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“I hate it, you did it on purpose.” Leng Qingqiu’s face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she said coquettishly.
"Okay, I won''t tease you anymore, I''ll accept the wild ginseng." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "By the way, your uncle works for the Poison Control Center, right?"
Leng Qingqiu nodded.
“I remember.” Xiang Nan smiled.???…
Subsequently, Xiang Nan made a phone call with his eldest brother Jin Fengju.
Turning around, Leng Qingqiu said to Xiang Nan, "Teacher Jin, uncle asked me to thank you. He has received a transfer order and will be transferred to work in a diplomatic agency. He is particularly grateful to you and wants to treat you to dinner. I don''t know if you Whenever you have time."
“What did you just call me?” Xiang Nan did not answer, but looked at her and asked.
“…” Leng Qingqiu was stunned for a moment, then responded, “Yan… Yanxi, my uncle wants to treat you to dinner. I wonder if you are willing to show your respect.”
"That''s true." Xiang Nan nodded, "Your uncle is also my uncle. Of course I will go if he invites me to dinner.
Well, let’s have a small dinner at your house on Friday night. There is no need to invite any company or make big dishes, just light home-cooked side dishes. "
?Leng Qingqiu nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but was caught by Xiang Nan, "Wait a minute, I promised you something, you should also promise me something."
“What’s the matter?” Leng Qingqiu asked doubtfully.
“Let’s go to Xishan on Saturday.” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“Just you and me?” Leng Qingqiu was stunned.
“Who else do you want?” Xiang Nan asked.
Leng Qingqiu suddenly felt a little shy, "This..."
"Promise me~" Xiang Nan looked at her pitifully and said, suddenly he coughed excitedly, and actually coughed out a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Leng Qingqiu dared not refuse, so he immediately agreed.
As soon as she left, Xiang Nan wiped the bloodshot eyes from the corner of his mouth, and he was still as lively and energetic as ever.
??For a master like him, his control over his body has reached a very advanced level. Not to mention just coughing up a few streaks of blood, even if it is fake death, no one can tell.
…
“Hey, Lao Qi, what is the origin of Song Runqing that you asked me to tune?” After returning home in the evening, Jin Fengju asked Xiang Nan.
“Oh, it’s a poet friend I met at the poetry club. He has some talents that he can’t put to use, so he asked me to help him find a reason.” Xiang Nan explained.
?Jin Fengju nodded, knowing what to do.
?Given the current status of the Jin family, it is not surprising that people like this often come to ask for help. Since he''s not an important person, but just a casual acquaintance, there''s no need to worry too much.
“Yan Xi, my sister-in-law wants to invite us home for dinner on Friday night.” At this time, Bai Xiuzhu came over and said.
“Oh, what a coincidence. I have promised my colleagues that there will be a party on Friday night.” When Xiang Nan heard this, he frowned and said, “How about this? Can we change it to Saturday night?”
"Those colleagues are so important, more important than my brother and sister-in-law?" Bai Xiuzhu said unhappily after hearing this.
"How is that possible? Chief Bai is the backbone of the country, the pillar of the country. One person is inferior to ten thousand people. How many people in the world can compare with it?" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "It''s just that I have already promised to them. It would be bad if we missed the appointment now.
A few days ago, in order to please me, the principal arranged a separate office for me, which made them jealous. If I miss my appointment again, they won''t know what to do with me.
?Let''s do this, I promise you, we won''t come back after dinner on Saturday night, and we will stay at your house until Monday, okay? "
"Okay." Seeing what he said, Bai Xiuzhu finally nodded.
"I know our Xiuzhu is reasonable, not that unruly and willful young lady." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Okay, now help me think about what gifts we can give to your brother and sister-in-law."
