She said softly: "They are sisters, just because they have a father who is good at gambling, so the eldest one was sold to the tooth shop early, and the younger one fled to a foreign country with the gambler's father, and then was sold to the Huo family." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info I took Gui's mother to see your grandmother that year, and the sisters who I thought they would never see again until they died. Your grandmother was as good to Aunt Gui as I was to Aunt Ping. It's a pity that your grandmother died of illness later, and Aunt Gui had nothing to rely on. Your grandmother can let your father foster in the Dong family, but she can't let Aunt Gui's two sons also be fostered in the Dong family. Later, Feng entered the door, and her two sons also died one after another, I am afraid that she is the one who hates Feng the most. ”

Dong Ruyi was silent, in fact, she had guessed some of them, but Aunt Gui and Grandma usually looked at the Feng family, but she didn't expect that she would have such a bond with the Chen family and her grandmother. I'm afraid that Aunt Gui and Grandma have been pretending to be very hard all these years.

Dong Ruyi nodded and said, "As long as she wants to live, I will try my best to save her life." ”

Mrs. Chen nodded and said, "Well, that's it, as long as she wants to live, you can help her." ”

Mrs. Chen and Dong Ruyi sat at the dinner table and waited for Chen Jingzhi to come over.

Chen Jingyi walked in with excitement on his face, still holding a stack of books in his arms.

Mrs. Chen hurriedly got up, took some of the books that Master Chen was holding, and put them on a few cases in the hall.

Aunt Ping hurriedly put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand, and also took the remaining books in Master Chen's hand.

Mrs. Chen casually flipped through the stack of books, she looked at the familiar titles, and wondered, "Master, is this going to study the art of making?"

Chen Jingzhi nodded and said, "It's true that I want to study the art of making, but it's not me, it's her." ”

Chen Jingzhi smiled and pointed at Dong Ruyi, and Mrs. Chen was directly stunned.

Dong Ruyi was also shocked when she heard this, she just said that before, and her grandfather actually started to let her read hard now, this action is too fast.

Mrs. Chen looked at Chen Jingzhi in disbelief, and then at Dong Ruyi, she instantly understood that this was a decision made by her master on a whim.

Mrs. Chen thought about her master's great ideals and ambitions when he was young, and she was exhausted.

Seeing this, Chen Jingzhi smiled mysteriously, then made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Madame will enter the table first, and let's talk while eating." ”

It can be seen that Chen Jingzhi's mood is particularly good today.

Aunt Ping, who was also stunned just now, reacted, she hurriedly added a bowl of rice to Chen Jingzhi, and then stood aside respectfully.

Chen Jingzhi ate the dish with great interest, and praised from time to time that today's dish is delicious.

As everyone knows, this is what they eat on weekdays.

Aunt Ping quietly clothed Mr. Chen and Mrs. Chen, and occasionally gave Dong Ruyi a dish or two.

Mrs. Chen gave Dong Ruyi vegetables and advised: "Eat slowly, don't pay attention to your grandfather, let's not take the Nalaoshzi imperial examination, and it will be serious for your grandmother to let your mother find a good family for you in the future." ”

Mrs. Chen persuaded Dong Ruyi, and kept giving Master Chen a flying eye knife.

Master Chen is in a very good mood today, no matter what Mrs. Chen says, he is always so happy.

Chen Jingzhi was determined this time, he wanted Dong Ruyi to go on a career before, but he was alone in brain fever; now with Dong Ruyi's approval, he must strike while the iron is hot, and he must do it before his daughter and son-in-law come back.

Chen Jingzhi's old god was saying: "Well, this tofu is doing well, I think Sister Ru can try it in the autumn, well, I will write a letter of sponsorship in the next two days." ”

Whenever Da Zhou Dan wants to participate in the imperial imperial examination, the first thing he does is to ask the elders around him to write a joint letter of sponsorship from the three of them.

These three people can be the patriarch of the clan, they can be the prestige gentry in the township, the famous talents, the people, or the teachers who teach.

Normally, it is also written by the master of the student, and then the student goes to the clan to find the patriarch to sign it, and finally to find the squire or the famous Xiucai old man to add the name.

The imperial court did this to ensure that the students who participated in the imperial examination were of the same character and origin.

For Dong Ruyi's letter of sponsorship, there is no need to alarm the Dong family at all, don't forget that the Chen family is full of talents.

Of course, this is what Master Chen thinks now, he just wants to write this letter of sponsorship himself, and then let the eldest and third of his family add their names.

It's just that as soon as such a letter of sponsorship comes out, it will definitely cause a sensation in Jiangning's entire officialdom.

Dong Ruyi's hand trembled obviously, and the dish between the chopsticks fell into the bowl with a snap.

She raised her head and looked at Chen Jingzhi, and said in her heart: "Let's not bring this, let's participate in the preliminary examination in the autumn, then she will only have less than four months to prepare." ”

Mrs. Chen was also stunned, her hand about to pick up vegetables stopped in mid-air, she originally wanted to wait for her daughter and son-in-law to come back and persuade her master.

Aunt Ping stood there, not daring to breathe, she looked at Chen Jingzhi sideways, as if she was looking at him to see if he was joking.

Mrs. Chen pretended to be fine, withdrew her hand, and persuaded softly: "Master, although our children were not very old when they participated in the imperial examination, Sister Ru was only three years old this year. No, even if she was four years old in the fall, it would be too early for that four-year-old child to participate in the imperial examination?"

Chen Jingzhi shook his head and said: "No, no, no, the bird's ambition." Sister Ru, my grandfather believes that you can. ”

Mrs. Chen directly brushed her face and said, "Okay, I'm a bird, you can all be Honghu, but if you just let Sister Ru participate in the imperial examination and let her soar into the sky, then you have to let her study hard for three years first, right?"

Master Chen didn't want to quarrel with Mrs. Chen senselessly, so he said directly: "Eat, eat, eat without saying anything." ”

Mrs. Chen took a deep breath, stopped looking at Chen Jingzhi, turned her head to Dong Ruyi and said, "Don't pay attention to your grandfather, let's eat ours." ”

Dong Ruyi looked at Chen Jingzhi's expectant gaze and rolled her eyes directly.

For her, she didn't have to study hard for three years at all, and she didn't feel that the imperial examination was difficult at all.

Not to mention that she also had the test questions of the imperial examination in her previous life, just before she got married, she also studied the art of making, and she beat her father completely.

Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there has been no explicit provision that women are not allowed to take the imperial examination, and with the degree to which the Great Zhou attaches importance to Sinology, even the women of the back house often mention their own strategies corresponding to the test questions of the previous lifts.

She had done such a thing before she got married in her last life, and she became famous once.
