"My parents have already told the public that they will not make a family appointment for me until I am 20 years old. ”

Lin Ruhai was very satisfied when he heard this, he patted Mai Fan on the shoulder, and said to him: "Then you will wait for another two years, even if you pass this subject, the best result is only to be ordered Hanlin." ”

"The first step for young people to enter the officialdom is to study, get married later, and spend all your energy on reading more books, which is very good for you. ”

"Since you are my student, don't worry about marriage, if you really beat a bachelor, won't my daughter be suitable for you......"

Before Lin Ruhai finished speaking, Mai Fan answered excitedly: "Thank you, teacher, for your promise! ”

"Lord Lin, don't worry, I am willing to wait for Sister Lin to grow up, and when she reaches the right age, you will hand her over to me, and I will have no second thoughts. ”

"Look at my father, it's just my mother. ”

"Don't look at our Xue family as a merchant, but there is no habit of taking concubines up and down. ”

"If the teacher marries his beloved daughter to me, I Xue Pan promises that I will have a couple for the rest of my life, and I will not even have a girl by my side. ”

"This!" Lin Ruhai was stunned, he didn't say that he was dead, the other party had already given the marriage?

And isn't it up to the parents to discuss such a big thing as an engagement?

Why is it that now he is a little rabbit cub who has marked off the Tao?

Lin Ruhai was worried that Mai Fan couldn't wait to run away, but now that he saw that Mai Fan had the same thoughts, then this look turned into a confrontation between his father-in-law and son-in-law.

When one looks at things from a different perspective......

Can looking at a lover be the same as looking at a son-in-law?

Lin Ruhai is naturally a lot picky, but in the same way, he is more attentive to Mai Fan. After all, this is close to the identity of one's own person.

But in the same way, his explanation of the temple examination is even more detailed.

In Lin Ruhai's description, Mai Fan saw the image of a forbearing, intelligent, suspicious but diligent emperor.

Such an emperor must be pragmatic, and he likes down-to-earth courtiers.

It's nothing that he's clumsy, but if it's pompous, or if it's a lie, it's fatal.

Hearing this, Mai Fan knew what kind of style he should choose and what kind of articles he should focus on.

Because the Lin family has just entered Beijing, there are still many things to deal with and settle down at home.

After getting an answer from Lord Lin, Mai Fan left early after only one meal.

When Mai Fan left, Lin Ruhai arranged the affairs of the family, and when he returned to the inner courtyard, he told his current wife his plans.

This gentle woman has been by Lin Ruhai's side for three or four years, and she has always been gentle and gentle and abides by her duty.

Although she didn't show much closeness to Lin Daiyu, she tried her best in her upbringing and food and clothing.

It is also this sense of proportion that makes Lin Daiyu very comfortable when she gets along with her, and from the harmony in the backyard, Lord Lin is also in a very comfortable mood.

When the new lady heard Lin Ruhai's thoughts, she pondered her husband's student again.

Suddenly, I found that it seemed to be a very good choice.

In the eyes of outsiders, the concubine of a third-class official is going to marry the son of a merchant, which is definitely a low marriage.

But only those closest to them know what kind of marriage is best for their children.

One is that this old man's student himself is competitive, and it is a matter of time before he enters the Shike after listening to the meaning, and he is transparent and reasonable, and he is very thoughtful when he hears that he should not have to worry about his future official career, he can grind it out himself.

The second is that the two families know each other or are members of the same faction, which has a family affair as a link, and this connection is a little stronger.

The third is that the Xue family is rich enough, and their Lin family has five generations of liehous, and they have never been poor since the previous dynasty.

The noble lady can't marry a poor family, even if the dowry is more, unless she is a fatherless and motherless, otherwise, her married life may not be able to live together.

Only the rich and noble people raised in the same environment can understand the meaning of the use and exchange of flowers.

Fourth, even if this Mai Fan is able in the officialdom, he still needs the help of the Lin family, and if he has not been able to do it for ten years, I am afraid that he will not be able to get rid of the influence of the Lin family.

Therefore, Lin Ruhai's stepwife agreed as soon as she could, and took the time to talk to Lin Daiyu, so that she could also be prepared.

If you can, you will be in touch faintly from now on, let Lin Daiyu look at each other, if the eldest girl doesn't like it, it's not too late for the master to push it again.

Things were arranged by Lin Ruhai in such an orderly manner.

When Mai Fan returned home, he said to his father with full information: "You can arrange it for me, and in two years, I will go to my teacher Lord Lin's house to propose marriage." ”

Xue Jue, who was drinking tea with his wife and children in the backyard, squirted out the tea in one sip.

A room of three people was frightened by Mai Fan's astonishing words and stayed on the spot.

After Mai Fan repeated what he and Lord Lin said in the study today, the family became excited.

Except for Xue Jue who knew a little bit about Lin Ruhai's thoughts, the whole family was overjoyed.

Including Xue Baochai, she is not the girl in the Red Mansion who doesn't know about foreign affairs and thinks very highly of herself.

Over the years, she has watched how hard her brother has been studying, and she has seen how the children outside view their Xue family.

She also had a lot of thoughts in her heart.

But the news that her brother brought back today gave her a very secret joy in her heart.

Because if Lord Lin's speculation is right, and his brother really passed the Jinshi test, then her identity is the sister of the two Jinshi, not the girl of the merchant's family.

And her own marriage, Xue Baochai is now fifteen years old, and the girl Huaichun is impossible, saying that she doesn't care.

Everyone was excited because of this news, and what the entire Xue family was waiting for now was the release of the imperial court.

There's no going around the charts.

Started by Yin of Shuntianfu in the capital, the messengers under him reported one by one.

The distance between their Xue family and the government is not too far, but if they follow the order, now they hope that the more they report to the government, the better.

The Jinshi of the first two or three lists are notified by the way from back to front.

Sometimes it's not necessarily a bad thing that other people's reports have been completed, and your family's haven't received them.

Mai Fan is quite calm today, he is still sitting in the study with the homework left by Lin Ruhai.

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
