Chapter 157: Lively
Watching Shumin carefully enshrine the Empress Dowager's Mobao, Zhengxiu somehow breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and looked up, Liu Er and several women were in love with those brocade silks, and the joy and shyness on the girl's face unconsciously attracted his attention all the time.
Perhaps seeing Zhengxiu's gaze staring at him, Liu Er showed a big smile at him, and Zhengxiu's heart suddenly jumped hard, and his face was flushed with joy.
"Shumin, congratulations. At this time, Qin Yonghuan led the old and young of the Qin family to the door, their eyes crossed over those rewards, and they unabashedly showed envy and jealousy.
"Uncle, aunt, third uncle, third aunt, fourth uncle. Seeing that it was a relative of the Qin family, Shumin personally greeted her, no matter what happened before, when she went to Liuxi Village, those grievances were resolved, and when she saw the elders coming, she should have done all the etiquette. After all, the children are here, they are all watching and learning.
However, there were too many Qin family members who came, and she couldn't call them all for a while, so she had to welcome people into the house first.
Seeing that there were guests at home, Liu Er hurriedly went to make hot tea, and before she could bring it out herself, the women who came to see the excitement took the initiative to help her.
Now Shu Min doesn't know anyone in the entire Linjiang County, and now he has the appreciation of the Queen Mother, even if he can show his face in front of her, even if he chats with her for a few words, it is an honor.
"Feng'an, Hui'er, Yang'er, and Liu'er, come here, hurry up and call someone. After the people of the Qin family entered the hall and sat down, Shumin hurriedly called the children over, Feng An and Hui'er were still quite familiar with the Qin family, but Yang Er and Liu Er were still seeing them for the first time, so they were a little restrained.
Still, they called people politely.
"Oh, good. Qin Yonghuan responded on the surface, but he was a little bitter in his heart, Feng An and Hui'er forget it, Yang Er and Liu Er were just picked up by Shumin from outside, and their clothes were so decent. Although this silver was all earned by Shu Min himself, and it had nothing to do with the Qin family, he still felt pain when he spent it on these irrelevant people.
If she had stood up when she had left at the beginning, would all of this today be attributed to the Qin family?
It's a pity that everything is late, he is a person who understands current affairs, and he only hopes that Shumin can take care of the Qin family for the sake of his relatives.
"Shumin, if you have time to go home and live, your aunt and your aunts are looking forward to you!" Qin Yonghuan said with a kind and kind smile.
"Yes, Shumin, you must go back on the second day of the Lunar New Year, I will be your favorite lion head. Uncle Niang answered on the side, her proposal was reasonable, and Shumin gladly agreed.
"Yo, this is my little granddaughter, right?" Qin Yongliang came to have a son late, and only Qin Shuhuai had a son under his knees. The Qin family has more men and fewer women, he has loved Shumin very much since he was a child, and when he saw that this miniature version of "Shumin" was so rare, he pulled her to his side and took out a handful of beautifully packaged candy from his arms and gave it to her.
"Thank you, little grandfather. Hui'er politely took the candy. He asked, "Little grandfather, can I give the candy to others?"
There were so many children in the room, and she felt very embarrassed that she got candy. But her mother said that the elder could not give up, so she had to ask.
"That's good. Qin Yongliang glanced at Shumin appreciatively, this child teaches well, he doesn't eat alone, he wants to give sugar to others, and he knows to ask himself first and take care of his feelings. Thinking that every time he brought a gift back to Qin's house, there were always scenes where some juniors fought over a few pieces of candy and a few pastries, and he felt a little more partial to Hui'er.
Shumin also looked at Hui'er with appreciation. This child is too sensible, and she will take everything she says and teaches to heart and carry it out.
Hui'er distributed the candy to the children present, because there was only one handful of candy, and it was not enough for each person to share a piece, so Liu'er quickly took out some and let Hui'er share it with every child present.
Because of the arrival of the Qin family, Zhengxiu couldn't participate in it, so he found a place in an inconspicuous place, sat and drank tea and ate pastries.
The tea is the best green tea brewed by Liu'er, and the cake is the plum blossom cake steamed by Liu'er.
Qin Shuyan is also a scholar, but unfortunately at this age, he only took the test as a child, and currently runs a family school in the family to teach the children in the clan to read.
Seeing Zhengxiu, a talented showman, he cheekily walked over, made a popular salute to him, and sat down under him.
In Xia Qin Shuyan, see Zhang Xiucai. ”
"Well, you're Hui'er's cousin. I've heard her talk about it. Zhengxiu was eating pastries when he saw someone suddenly come over to talk to him, so he quickly took a sip of tea and swallowed his mouth full of pastries.
"In Xia Qin Shuyan, it is Shumin's cousin. Shuyan hurriedly answered.
"You're still a child?" Jeong-so asked when he saw that he wasn't dressed like a show-talent, and that he was a scholar.
"In Xia Bucai, I have only been a child in the exam for so many years, if I can get Zhang Xiucai only one or two, it will be an honor to be in Xia. ”
Zhengxiu was 12 years old when he was 12 years old, and he was the youngest talent in the entire Linjiang County. Next year will be the year of the big exam, and this Zhang Xiucai may be able to win the examination! After all, he is still so young, and he has a talent for reading.
"If you don't like it, I'll lend you my codex. Zhengxiu said casually, the hand piercing when he was in the test was worth a lot of silver, but knowledge is priceless, once it is linked to yellow and white things, it will tarnish the height of learning.
As his teacher said, "A scholar should not hide dirt, have no distractions, be as calm as water, and be clear." ”
Well, this is an outsider's opinion of Zhengxiu, the reason why Zhengxiu said so happily to borrow books is because of Shumin's face on the one hand, and on the other hand, he can't even pass the Xiucai exam when he is a lot older, and he feels a little pity for him.
When the book heard this, I was very excited in my heart, and I hurriedly thanked him. With Zhang Zhengxiu's handwriting, he is confident that he will be admitted to Xiucai in the regular course in the coming year.
Zhengxiu saw him making a gesture, so he had no choice but to give a return gift.
Baili Village has already prepared a banquet, and the masses who came to watch the ceremony from several nearby villages were left to have lunch, although it is a big pot of rice, but there are also meat and vegetarian food, and the oil and water are sufficient, which fully reflects that the life of Baili Village is not what it used to be, and several Zhuangzi in the neighboring villages are doing well more than one grade.
The Qin family is Shumin's maiden family, so they naturally have to be treated differently, and they were invited to Zhang's house for a banquet together with the other village leaders.
The father-in-law surnamed Liu who came to deliver the decree was just an errand run existence in the palace, but the villagers were simple, where had they seen the father-in-law who announced the decree, and he came from the palace, so he naturally did not dare to slack off, and regarded him as a guest, accompanied by Zhang Lizheng, Zhengmin, and Zhengxiu, and sat in the chief.
He was eating with a mouth full of oil at the moment, and the spring breeze was proud, and seeing the villagers respect him so much, he was greatly vanity. The impression of these simple, old-fashioned, and uninformed villagers has also improved.
"Our family is in the palace, what we eat is the delicacies of the mountains and seas, although the food is not as good as the palace, but the taste of this farmhouse is also fresh, our family is very satisfied, when our family returns to the palace, will definitely say good words to the nobles in the palace. ”
Gonggong Liu squinted his eyes and said triumphantly.
When Zhang Lizheng heard this, he hurriedly raised his wine glass to salute him, and said gratefully, "Then rely on Gonggong Liu more." ”
"This is a trivial matter, Zhang Lizheng doesn't have to be polite. Father-in-law Liu picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
The Li Zheng at the side table watched Zhang Lizheng and his father-in-law from the palace drink so happily, and they were envious in their hearts, thinking that the latter Baili Village was even more amazing, not to mention this tofu, as well as the sewing machine and tricycle, if they followed Baili Village in the future, the life of their own village would definitely get better and better.
Seeing that Gonggong Liu was in high spirits, Zhengmin hurriedly poured wine and toasted him. He is the future county order, and his status is there, and Gonggong Liu felt that he had come to announce the decree to the right one, so he hurriedly said, "Zhang County Order, when our family returns to the palace, I will definitely mention it to the Queen Mother, and I will be added to the official in the future, but don't forget our family." ”
"Definitely, definitely. Jeongmin's face turned red and he quickly replied excitedly.
Zhengxiu pursed his lips and snickered on the side, he looked at Grandpa Liu's forgetful appearance, and felt funny, but he didn't dare to laugh out loud, and his heart was hurt internally.
He studied in Fucheng, and his teacher was Shangguan Fu from the Shangguan family, although he was more old-fashioned, but no one was more familiar with the official ranks of the palace than him, and he knew that a father-in-law like him who ran errands was estimated to not see the Queen Mother once a year, let alone speak in the back of the empress.
He is just bullying the ignorance of the villagers, and if he is placed elsewhere, his remarks will definitely laugh off the big teeth of others.
But he wouldn't be unamused to debunk him, one willing to fight and the other willing to suffer, didn't he see how happy and excited his father and eldest brother and the people in the village were?
In addition to Zhang Lizheng and others, the Qin family was also the most excited. Stained with Shumin's light, they shared the table with the Lizheng. On the table, I received a lot of compliments and praises, although they were all related to Shumin, they were also related to Rong Guyan, and everyone couldn't laugh from ear to ear.
I heard that Shuyan is now running a clan school, and Li Li is considering whether to send all the children in the village to the Qin family to study.
Although Shuyan is a child, it is still possible to teach children to read a few words.
Considering the impact, Shumin didn't eat at the table this time, and distributed a big pot of rice to everyone in the village with his aunt. Seeing that Shumin personally came out to serve a meal for everyone, the villagers were all excited, blessings, compliments, don't spray like money, in the morning, Shumin's ears are calloused. However, she smiled at everyone and didn't have any arrogance, which made her rise to a higher level in the hearts of the villagers, and they felt that she must be the reincarnation of a fairy in the sky.
"What a good person, I wonder if she has any plans to remarry?"
"What if you plan to marry again, who else is worthy of her in these ten miles and eight towns!" Looking at Shumin, who was smiling like a flower, the women all sighed in their hearts at the same time.
Fairy-like characters must always be matched by immortals, but who is the immortal? )
