Chapter 257 Wen’s invitation

The room was quiet. Wen Junqing stood outside the door and did not dare to say a word. He waited and waited, but never heard his father's reply. It seemed that his father disliked him for disturbing him, so he curled his lips slightly in disappointment and held the Xu family's hand.

I was about to turn around and leave after receiving the envelope.

"Come in!" At this moment, Wen Shangqing's voice came from the room. Wen Junqing was shocked that his father actually let him into the room today.

So, Wen Junqing quickly took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and gently opened the door of the bookstore.

In the room, sitting with his back to Wen Junqing, was a man in plain clothes with a full head of black hair tied casually by a simple long gray belt. At this time, there were some books, pens, and papers scattered around his body. Wen Junqing put the books in his hands.

The letter was placed beside him, and he slowly took a few steps back. Seeing that there were still lamps nearby that were not extinguished, he wanted to move to blow them out. When he saw that his father had already taken the envelope from the Xu family, he turned around and took the envelope.

Don't dare to make the slightest noise.

The content of the letter was not long. Wen Junqing saw that his father had finished reading it quickly, but he actually put it down and picked it up again. He then thought that the content of the letter might be as extraordinary as the Xu brothers said.

It's unusual. Is it really a strange book?

"Get out!" The three cold words made Wen Junqing curl his lips again, and he went out without daring to ask any questions.

But no one expected that Lin Shuran would receive an invitation from the Wen family the next day, asking her to visit the Wen family.

Lin Shuran immediately tidied up briefly and got on the carriage to Wen's house. When she arrived, the door of Wen's house was still closed. After the concierge informed the owner, the door of Wen's house opened for a rare occasion.

It was a rare thing in the capital for a liberal arts scholar to open his door to welcome guests. After Lin Shuran stepped in, the news spread throughout the capital as if it had wings. Even the palace heard the news.

"Did Wen Shangqing really let the general's wife in?" Emperor Zhao You looked at Eunuch Qu with some disbelief. Standing beside him were Taifu Lin Youxing and Prime Minister Chen Yanyan. Both of them had been rejected by the Wen family.

Eunuch Qu smiled and nodded, reporting back to the emperor that the news was absolutely true, and after Lin Shuran entered, the door of Wen's house was instantly closed again, and now the Xu family's carriage is still parked outside Wen's house.

"This is really strange!" Emperor Zhao You also laughed after hearing this, then looked at Lin Youxing and said deliberately, "Taifu Lin, you are not as good as your daughter!"

Lin Youxing said helplessly with a bitter face: "After all, it is my uncle who loves my niece. I, my brother-in-law, cannot stand in his eyes. I am ashamed, I am ashamed!"

Emperor Zhao You said again: "Master Taifu, there is no need to be ashamed. It is rare for me to see a great scholar, let alone you!"

Prime Minister Chen Yan stood aside and did not speak. The monarch and his minister, a little fox and an old fox, were singing in harmony. He felt really unhappy when he saw them. An arrogant and arrogant person like Wen Shangqing should be punished.

, but the emperor always indulged him, which only fueled the arrogance of those ignorant literati.

At the same time, after Lin Shuran entered Wen's house, she first met her aunt Shen and her cousin, and then was sent by Wen Junqing to wait in the side hall of the bookstore where Wen Shangqing was.

The aroma of tea and ink lingered. Even though Lin Shuran was just sitting in the hall, he seemed to be able to feel the strong aroma of books. He felt that the atmosphere was very different from other homes.

She waited patiently, and after a long while, footsteps were heard, and then a middle-aged man with a majestic figure, elegant and unrestrained, and a gentleman came out of the cabinet. He had a handsome appearance.

The eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips are quite similar to those of his mother Wen Shi. Her eyes are bright and energetic, revealing profound wisdom. She walks upright and steady, and has a strong character. She exudes an extraordinary temperament from the inside out.

Lin Shuran quickly stood up and saluted this man. She knew that the man in front of her was her long-established uncle Wen Shangqing without any introduction.

Wen Shangqing only glanced at Lin Shuran briefly, raised his eyebrows slightly, and a little surprise flashed in his eyes. The young woman who had already put her hair in a woman's bun in front of him was actually the innocent and cute little girl he had seen before.

They are completely different. They are like two completely unrelated people. The changes have been so great.

"You want to use half a book to negotiate terms with me, tell me!" Wen Shangqing said with a straight face after sitting down.

This girl didn't learn her mother's kindness, but instead learned her father's cunning, and actually played tricks on his uncle. At this time, Wen Shangqing was not in a happy mood when he saw Lin Shuran.

Lin Shuran came to see her uncle Wen Shangqing with no idea at all. Seeing that he spoke so directly, she was a little stunned, but she immediately realized it. She stood up and apologized and said: "Uncle, I didn't mean to talk to you.

What's the condition? It's not easy to meet you, and I can't think of any other way to ask for directions, so I have to make this decision. I hope my uncle won't be angry!"

Wen Shangqing would never see anyone else, but after all, it was his own sister's child, and the Wen family was very protective of his own shortcomings, so he would set aside some time for Lin Shuran.

"What stone do you want to cast, what path do you want to ask?" Wen Shangqing didn't want to waste too much time on Lin Shuran's affairs, so he asked directly.

Lin Shuran knew that her uncle had a weird temper, so he quickly took out the two books he had with him and handed them over respectfully with both hands and said: "Uncle, this is the second half of "Su Shu", and the other one is the brochure of the academy that the Queen Mother ordered me to open.

, there is also a piece of writing written by me in it. I hope that my uncle and your friends can read the brochure of the academy. I would like to invite some of your friends to teach in the academy. In addition, I also want to ask my uncle to give me some guidance.

As for my handwriting, my mother said that I have been practicing imitating your handwriting since I was a child, and you are the most qualified to judge my handwriting."

After saying this, Lin Shuran said goodbye and left very knowingly. Wen Shangqing didn't say anything about this. He just looked at her deeply and asked his servants to lead her out.

Lin Shuran's aunt Shen and her younger cousin Wen Junqing had been waiting for her outside the bookstore. Seeing her coming out, Wen Junqing couldn't help but ask: "Cousin, have you seen your father? He talked to you.

What? What did you say?"

Mrs. Shen looked at Lin Shuran with a helpless smile, stepped forward and held her hand affectionately, and said thoughtfully: "Your uncle didn't make things difficult for you, right? If he said anything unpleasant, sister Ran, you must not

Take it to your heart!”

"Auntie, that's my uncle. Even if he's in a bad mood, he deserves to be scolded and beaten. What's more, he didn't make it difficult for me at all. He just said a few words to me and let me go.

I sent it out." Lin Shuran said with a smile, and then the three of them walked out together.
