Chapter 204 Datang Daily (Part 2)
After Zhang Nan returned to the mansion, Cui Yue was still waiting for her to have dinner. Seeing that she was back, she quickly got up to meet her. Zhang Nan was very moved to see Cui Yue like this. This is her good wife.
After giving Cui Yue a hug, Cui Yue blushed.
"Langjun, why are you doing? It's not good for people to see it?" Cui Yue said with a red face when she was hugged by Zhang Nan.
"Hey, it's not illegal for me to hold my wife." Zhang Nan said with a giggle.
"Wife?" Cui Yue asked with her face raised.
"Oh, it means my wife." Zhang Nan explained.
"Okay, come and have dinner. You've been hungry for a day. If I come back late next time, don't wait for me. You can eat first." Zhang Nan took Cui Yue's hand and walked to the table and said.
"It's okay, I'm not particularly hungry." As soon as Cui Yue finished speaking, Zhang Nan heard a gurgling sound. Although Zhang Nan was very hungry, Zhang Nan was sure that this gurgling was not caused by his own stomach.
He turned his face to look at Cui Yue, and found that Cui Yue's face turned redder, and he lowered his head and did not speak.
"Your husband, you won't come back, it doesn't matter if you're eating alone." Cui Yue lowered her head and said in a low voice.
When Zhang Nan heard Cui Yue say this, he smiled and said, "Okay, I promise you, how about I go back to my house every day when the sun is sinking?"
"Really?" Cui Yue said with a look of surprise.
"Of course it's true. Except for what the emperor asked me to do, I promise you that no matter what work I had that day, I would definitely come back to have dinner on time." Zhang Nan said with a smile.
"That's great." Cui Yue said happily. It seemed that Cui Yue was still very happy about Zhang Nan's promise.
When dinner was finished, Zhang Nan pulled Cui Yue to do some things that everyone loved to do. By the time Zhang Nan woke up, the sun was already shining.
"Fortunately, I don't have to go to court now. It's better to have the privilege of working." Zhang Nan thought to himself as he looked at the sunlight through the paper window.
Anyway, I am the supervisor of the newspaper. I will be as late as I want to be late, so no one has mentioned that I am. After using breakfast with Cui Yue, Zhang Nan came to the newspaper in one step.
As soon as he entered the newspaper, Zhang Nan saw that Ma Zhou and his men seemed to have been sucked in their essence, with a look of listlessness and red eyes, and they were facing two panda eyes.
"What's wrong? Did you guys see you last night?" Zhang Nan asked strangely.
"Sir, after several colleagues divided the articles they were responsible for yesterday, they mostly didn't sleep all night after they went back," said one of them.
"Yes, especially Ma Zhou, he didn't go home yesterday. He probably stayed in the newspaper until dawn." Another person said.
Upon hearing this, Ma Zhou scratched his head embarrassedly, which was considered to be accustomed to this statement.
"Oh? Ma Zhou, why don't you go home? There is no place to sleep here." Zhang Nan said, looking at the classroom full of tables.
"I laughed at you. There were not so many candles in my house, so I left them here to write them." Ma Zhou said with a smile. Although he said with a smile, Zhang Nan still saw that Ma Zhou was a little embarrassed.
"Then there are candles in this classroom, why don't you take a few of them back?" Zhang Nan looked at the candlesticks on the table and asked strangely.
"How can this be done? These are all things from the newspaper. I dare not take them home privately." Ma Zhou said.
After hearing this, Zhang Nan couldn't help but sigh that this is the simplicity of the ancients.
"Okay, if there are no candles at home in the future, you can just take them from here. I agree, but you should not worry about such trivial matters in the future. I have reported your official position to the Ministry of Personnel. Now you have an official position." Zhang Nan said with a smile.
"Ah, really? Thank you sir." After hearing this, Ma Zhou was so excited that he couldn't help it. What does this mean? This means that he, a poor scholar who was poor and depressed, suddenly became an official.
Ma Zhou was about to show off his gesture to Zhang Nan. Seeing this, Zhang Nan quickly held Ma Zhou up and joked that he could not stand others kneeling down on him.
"Your great kindness and virtue are determined to remember it in your heart." Ma Zhou said with a slightly crying voice. Zhang Nan probably couldn't understand Ma Zhou's excitement because Zhang Nan had never encountered any major event that changed his destiny. Of course, electrocution and crossing through time does not count.
"Okay, don't thank me. If you want to thank me, you have to thank yourself. You have the strength to get this official position." Zhang Nan said with a smile.
"Sir, there are two more official positions." One person asked. When Zhang Nan saw that everyone was nervous and curious, he smiled and said, "Ma Zhou got the official position above the ninth rank, and as for the two official positions below the ninth rank." Zhang Nan deliberately kept a secret and said, "The remaining two official positions were obtained by Zhou Xing and Wang Ke."
Zhou Xing and Wang Ke are the second and third places in the written test respectively. Apart from comparing the written test, Zhang Nan really doesn't know what method to use to divide the official positions. From this point of view, the most fair way to reverse the written test.
Zhou Xing and Wang Ke heard that it was him and were so excited that they were no different from Ma Zhou. Zhou Xing was even more excited. Zhang Nan was shocked and joked that if he had obtained an official position and did something for himself, wouldn’t it be Fan Jin who passed the imperial examination?
When the others heard that it was not them, they could not even stop the disappointment on their faces.
"Okay, don't be discouraged from the rest of you. You do well in the newspaper, and it's not that you don't have the chance to make a fortune. This is what the emperor told me personally. What you have to do is to work down-to-earth and work well, and gold will always shine." Zhang Nan comforted.
When everyone heard Zhang Nan say this, they hurriedly took out their articles, surrounded Zhang Nan and said, "Sir, look at my article."
"No, sir, please look at my articles, I have written three of them."
"What do you think of writing three articles? I can surpass your three articles in this article."
Zhang Nan heard everyone chattering in his ears and had to shout: "Enough, why are you doing this? Do you offer treasures? You have said that you should be down-to-earth and down-to-earth. Do you need to explain this simple truth to you? You sit down below and listen to me tell you what you should pay attention to in this newspaper."
When everyone saw Zhang Nan getting angry, they trotted and sat on the chair below, sitting down in a well-behaved manner and listening to Zhang Nan's lecture. Even Ma Zhou, Zhou Xing, Wang Ke and others who had already obtained the official position were shocked and sat down in a manner as if they were listening with a scrupulous look. After all, who is not afraid of their boss getting angry?
