Chapter 520: Starting a Family

Zhao Jing'er also hurriedly bowed, hugged her fists and said, "Lord Xing, you are serious." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThe younger brothers did not suffer any grievances, the guest room environment of the West Courtyard is quiet and very comfortable, but it should be our two brothers, thanks to Lord Xing's hospitality. ”

Xing Dewu was stunned, and couldn't help but show an embarrassed smile on his face. Although Zhao Jing'er said extremely sincerely, the meaning of her words made people feel a little strange. But Xing Dewu, who had been in the officialdom for many years, quickly regained his composure, smiled faintly, and said politely: "Two virtuous nephews, please take a seat!"

Zhao Jing'er and Lin Wan looked at Xing Han, who had been bowing his head and being silent, their hearts were full of suspicion, they thanked them, and sat down as they said.

Xing Dewu also sat back on the high-backed sandalwood chair behind the desk, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "The two Wanxian nephews also participated in this year's autumn exam, right?" After a pause, seeing Zhao Jing'er and Lin Wan nodding, he continued: "The list will be released in more than ten days, are the two Wanxian nephews also going back to the capital?"

Zhao Jing'er smiled and nodded, and said, "Our two brothers, although we don't have any hope for the autumn test list, we are already planning to leave for Beijing in the near future. ”

Lin Wan frowned slightly, and said with some embarrassment: "However, judging from General Ouyang's pulse in the past few days, he may be about to wake up in the near future." But Xiahe's eldest brother has been away from home for many days, and he may not be able to wait for General Ouyang to wake up and be leaving. ”

Xing Dewu was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Ouyang Yufei to wake up, and hurriedly asked, "Is what Wan Er Gongzi said true? Is General Ouyang about to wake up?"

Lin Wan nodded and said, "Yes, I have been applying needles to General Ouyang every day to check the pulse, and recently it has finally had some effect, General Ouyang's pulse has changed slightly, and it seems that he has already reacted to the voices of the outside world." ”

Xing Dewu thought for a while and said, "Han'er is going to leave for Beijing today, I originally thought that you would come together, so naturally I also want to go back to Beijing together, and there will be a good response on the way." Now, I have to let Han'er go first, and ask the two virtuous nephews to stay for a few more days, and wait for General Ouyang to wake up before leaving, how about it?"

Xing Han suddenly raised his head and said eagerly: "Father, there are eleven days before the release of the list, we will go back to Beijing by water, if there is no delay on the way, it will only take seven or eight days to get to the capital." The child can wait for two more days, wait for Brother Wan and Brother Wan to leave together, and we will come out together, so it is better to return to Beijing together. ”

Xing Dewu's eyes sharpened, his face was full of anger, he took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and was about to speak.

saw Lin Wan stand up, clasped his fists, and said, "Uncle Xing, please listen to the little nephew." ”

Xing Dewu turned his head to look at Lin Wan suspiciously, nodded slightly, and said, "Wanxian nephew, don't be polite, please sit down and talk." ”

Lin Wan saluted slightly, sat down respectfully, and said slowly: "Uncle Xing, the journey back to Beijing is far away, and staying on the ship for seven or eight days is indeed very boring. Brother Xing and my brother are like brothers, and the three of us want to go back to Beijing together. I wonder if I can ask Uncle Xing to allow Brother Xing to wait for us one more day?"

Xing Dewu frowned, and asked suspiciously, "One day? Does Wan Xian's nephew mean that he only needs to wait for another day for General Ouyang to wake up?"

Lin Wan pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "The little nephew can try to increase the intensity of the needle and the dosage of the medicine tonight, and it is expected that General Ouyang should be able to wake up as soon as possible." If it doesn't work, the little nephew has no better way but to wait, and the little nephew can't stay here for too long. Therefore, after the little nephew leaves, Uncle Xing only needs to let people take care of General Ouyang carefully. ”

Xing Dewu is right to think about it, in case General Ouyang can't wake up, he can't keep the Wan family brothers here for the rest of his life, after all, they are not the doctors he invited, not to mention that they have done their best. Thinking of this, Xing Dewu smiled slightly, nodded, and said, "Okay, then Han'er will wait for another day and set off tomorrow." ”

Xing Han was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, father." ”

Xing Dewu shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "You kid, for such a trivial matter, you are angry with your father, and you don't even agree to a family affair that your mother gave you in Shandong, I think you are spoiled by your mother." ”

Xing Han was shocked, and hurriedly looked at Zhao Jing'er, only to see that Zhao Jing'er was also shocked, with her mouth open and her face pale.

Lin Wan secretly said in her heart that it was not good, for fear that Zhao Jing'er would show her feet, so she hurriedly pulled her sleeve and glanced at her.

Zhao Jing'er was pulled by Lin Wan before she realized her gaffe, and hurriedly lowered her head, hiding the panic and resentment on her face.

Xing Han wrinkled his brows, forcibly suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and asked Xing Dewu: "Father, you have already promised the child just now, and this matter will be discussed with the mother after the palace examination is over and the child returns to Shandong." The child has not yet made a career, and the matter of starting a family is not in a hurry. ”

Xing Dewu's face sank, he looked at Xing Han coldly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Starting a family, of course, is to start a family first and then start a business." Your mother said that when you were in Shandong, you often corresponded with the eldest lady of the Zhao family. You can't still have a mind on the side, right?"

Zhao Jing'er couldn't help but raise her head again, her eyes were full of anger, and her chest rose and fell violently, as if the anger was about to erupt.

Lin Wan hurriedly got up, took two steps forward, blocked in front of Zhao Jing'er, walked to Xing Han's side, patted him on the shoulder, and persuaded him with good words: "Brother Xing, if you have something to say, don't be angry with your uncle, what can't the father and son say?"

Xing Han took a deep breath, nodded, and said, "Father, this matter will be discussed later, and everything will be discussed when the child returns to Shandong Yuming's mother." ”

Xing Dewu snorted coldly and said, "Don't think that your mother will help you speak, you'd better stop this thought as soon as possible." ”

Xing Han's eyes were red with anger, but he could only grit his teeth and endure it, lowered his head, and didn't say a word more.

But Zhao Jing'er behind Lin Wan was so angry that her tears were left, trying to calm her emotions, quietly wiping away her tears, and staying calm.

Lin Wan turned to look at Xing Dewu, smiled slightly, and said, "Uncle Xing, is the eldest lady of the Zhao family you are talking about the young lady of the Zhao family in the capital?"

Xing Dewu nodded and said, "Exactly." The ancestral homes of the Zhao family and our Xing family are both in Shandong, so Han'er and the eldest lady of the Zhao family have known each other in Shandong for a long time. ”

Lin Wan nodded, shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the Zhao family can now be said to be pushed by everyone when the wall is down! Zhao Laoshang is sick in bed, I heard that General Zhao also encountered an accident in Fengnan City, Zhao Mansion has been closed these days, and the door is full of birds, where is the scenery of the past?"

Xing Dewu frowned slightly, very unhappy in his heart. Although Lin Wan's words seemed to be lamenting the misfortune of the Zhao family, when he said it at this time, it seemed to be saying that the people were warm and cold, and the world was hot and cold, and that the Xing family was indifferent and treacherous.
