"Then how can I tell the difference between my sister-in-law and my cousin?"

The delicate young woman was also a little curious, and couldn't help asking.

Li Luan'er turned around and smiled: "My cousin's father is the head of Luming Academy, my cousin-in-law grew up in a scholarly atmosphere since she was a child, and her temperament must be gentle and virtuous, and her younger siblings have more men and fewer daughters in their families. ”

After Li Luan'er finished speaking, the young man in jujube red clothes was Lin Zhen and hurriedly got up and gave a deep salute: "My cousin-in-law is smart, Zhen really admires it." ”

Lin Rui also nodded with a smile: "My brother and sister are really admirable when they see the slightest knowledge." ”

Li Luan'er hurriedly said a few words modestly: "It's just some ordinary truth, you can know it if you think more carefully, my cousin and cousin are too complimentary, I really don't dare to take it." ”

"Deserved, deserved." Lin Zhen's daughter-in-law Geng nodded while laughing: "I can't think of these truths." ”

Lin Rui's daughter-in-law Fang Shi also smiled: "Put it on me, I am not so clever." ”

Li Luan'er had to give in a few more words, Fang got up and invited her to take a seat, Li Luan'er glanced at Lin, and Lin made a face: "Look at what I'm doing, your sister-in-law invites you, you can sit down quickly." ”

Li Luan'er smiled secretly in her heart, knowing that the Lin family was a face-saving person, and she was not willing to show her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in front of her mother's family.

Since the Lin family wanted to save face, Li Luan'er was unwilling to refute her and make her embarrassed, so she pushed the boat down the river and said, "Yes." ”

After she sat down, she praised Fang and Geng: "You two have also been here for some time, and you must have seen that our wife is the most compassionate person, and she usually pities the old and the poor, and everyone in the family respects her very much." Everyone talks about our wife to give a thumbs up and praise two sentences, I can be a daughter-in-law for my wife, I don't know how many lifetimes of blessings, since I married into the Yan family, my wife treats me like her own daughter, and she teaches me all the time, so that I am grateful. That's it. My wife is the best at raising children, and my uncle and sister-in-law are also kind people and never quarrel with each other. I also have a lot of respect for me, and there is harmony between the top and bottom of the family, which makes I don't know how many people envy me. ”

"Our grandfather also said that Mrs. Gu is the most kind person." Fang Shi also smiled: "Just looking at the appearance of my younger siblings, I know that life must be excellent, I want to come." The aunt and the younger siblings must be in harmony with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and everything is discussed. Not to mention others, I envy it, but fortunately, our wife is a good person, and the family is also a kind person. My siblings and I are doing well. ”

"This is really the answer to the phrase "family and everything." Li Luan'er touted a few words: "The most important thing for our women in this life is to be able to marry a good family, and this marriage is like reincarnation, and the marriage is good." I don't have to worry about it all my life, and I don't marry well. But it's miserable. ”

"Exactly." Geng also interjected: "Our sister-in-law is married to ......"

"Ahem!" Lin and Fang coughed together.

Li Luan'er knew that it must be a family matter that the Lin family was not willing to talk about, so she found a reason to start the topic: "I heard that you will take office when the spring begins, have the places been decided, and where are you going to be an official?" ”

Geng forgot about her sister-in-law for a while, and said with a smile: "It's settled, it's Jiading County in the south, and our lord used to be the county magistrate." ”

"Jiading is a good place." Li Luan'er hurriedly congratulated when she heard this: "It's time to congratulate you, now it's not far from spring, I think you must have already prepared, we northerners are a little unaccustomed to the water and soil in the south, and it is inevitable that we will be a little uncomfortable when we go, this medicinal material or something can be prepared, by the way, if you have anything unprepared, tell me, don't be polite." ”

"You're welcome." Geng responded with a smile.

Li Luan'er said a few words to the Fang family and the Geng family, and listened to the Lin family ask Lin Rui how the preparation for the imperial examination was, which gentleman to study with now, and what books to warm?

Listening to Lin Rui's careful answer, Li Luan'er remembered something in her heart, and listened to Lin Rui again: "Mr. said that my book is good, and the article is also written, and the words of Chunyu should be able to win, but I am afraid that the ranking will not be too good, I am afraid that I will fall outside the second class, if it is the same Jinshi......"

The Dayong Dynasty imitated the previous dynasty examples, the spring and the scholars were divided into one and two first, although the second class was also a jinshi, and they could also be officials, but they were the same jinshi, and this same jinshi was like a concubine with a person, and some of them could not be on the stage, and the scholars would rather study for a few more years, rather than participate in the spring festival when they were not sure, in order to be afraid of the same jinshi.

Lin Shi thought for a while and said, "If it really doesn't work, let's wait for another three years." ”

"My nephew can wait, but the old lady ......"

Lin sighed: "In this way, you can only resign yourself to fate." ”

Lin Rui smiled: "My nephew came this time to ask my aunt for one thing, there is a friend surnamed Yu in the nephew's academy, he reads very well, and he writes a good article, Mr. often praises him and says that if he participates in the Spring Festival, he is afraid that he will be able to get the first place, and his nephew often discusses articles with him, and I heard him say that he has been taught by his cousin, and also said that although his cousin has not participated in the imperial examination, he is very knowledgeable, if he can get his cousin's allocation, the article must have room for improvement. ”

Li Luan knew when he was a child that this friend surnamed Yu must be talking about Yu Ziran, but he really didn't expect Yu Ziran to have a relationship with Lin Rui.

Thinking about Yu Ziran's temperament, he can intersect with Lin Rui, which means that Lin Rui's temperament should be good, and he will not be much worse than a person, for a while, Li Luaner has a little more affection for Lin Rui.

When Lin heard this, his face was a little more angry: "Chengyue is really excessive, he has the spare time to take care of outsiders, but he doesn't know how to take care of his cousin, Rui'er, you wait, I will talk about him well when I see him." ”

Speaking of this, Lin looked at Li Luan'er again: "You too, you only know how to lead Cheng Yue to fool around with people, and you don't know how to persuade him." ”

Li Luan'er was so wronged, but in front of outsiders, she didn't like to make people laugh, so she had to hold back her anger and explain: "Back to Mrs. Hui, my cousin's surname Yu should be Yu Ziran, and Yu Ziran is the nephew of Lord Yu Xi of Dongfu's palm print, Yu Xi specially asked our master to take care of his nephew, and our father couldn't shirk it, so he took time to read some books with Yu Ziran." ”

Speaking of this, Li Luan'er glanced at Lin Rui again: "My cousin and Yu Ziran intersected, and I must know that his temperament is not such a wanton and reckless person, speaking of which, our lord also looks at his temperament and stability, so he befriended him, otherwise, our lord is looking at Lord Yu Xi's face, and I am afraid that he will not really have a relationship with him." ”

Li Luan'er said this very well, she not only refuted the remarks of the Lin family fooling around with people, but also pointed out Yu Ziran's identity, and praised Yan Chengyue once, telling the Lin family and everyone in the Lin family, Yu Xi, a big eunuch, knew that Yan Chengyue was erudite and talented, and specially asked Yan Chengyue to call his nephew, but his own family didn't know about this, and he really didn't care about Yan Chengyue.

After she said this, Lin's face couldn't help but turn red.

Li Luan'er praised the Lin family like that before, which made the Lin family extremely useful, but now in front of her mother's family, she can't be mean to Li Luan'er, so she can only endure and say: "I see, I don't know." ”

Lin glanced at Lin Rui: "It's all a family, what do you want or not, you just have to go to Chengyue Mansion to study with him." ”

Lin Rui responded, and when he lowered his head, he couldn't help but praise the Li family that his cousin married was really clever and tight, and it was no wonder that Old General Yan picked her at a glance.

The Fang clan and the Geng clan also had some numbers in their hearts, and they were also amazed by Li Luan'er's methods.

After sitting for a while, the four members of the Lin family got up to say goodbye when they saw that it was not early, Li Luan'er sent them out on behalf of the Lin family, and when the four members of the Lin family were sent away, Li Luan'er returned to the main hall and did not wait for the Lin family to say anything, and said directly: "Madam, Ming'er and our father also have a few friends who are coming to our house as guests, and now I don't have anything ready for hospitality, it's really ...... I can't delay the time, please let my wife let me leave. ”

The Lin family held back the fire in his stomach and couldn't get rid of it, and at this time, he could only bear to tell Li Luan'er to leave quickly.

When she got out of the Yan family's old house, Li Luan'er breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to help Ruizhu's hand to get into the car, but when she saw Ma Fang coming in a hurry, she first saluted Li Luan'er: "Young grandma, the matter of the incense powder shop has been clarified, someone has added poisonous things to the spices, but the amount added is small, if you don't check carefully, you can't find out, fortunately, Sister-in-law Lu's nose smelled it, otherwise it would ......"

Ma Fang's words didn't come out, but Li Luan'er knew that otherwise, if these good fat powder were sold, I don't know how many people would be implicated.

As soon as she thought that someone was making trouble under her nose, Li Luan'er was furious: "Have you made it clear, who instructed him?" ”

Ma Fang bowed his head and said after a while: "According to him, it was instructed by the people of Dongfu...... He, he didn't dare not obey ......"

"Dongfu?" Li Luan'er gritted her teeth and said to the coachman: "Don't go back to the house first, go to Yu's house to have a look." ”

Li Luan'er knew that Yu Xi was afraid that she was in the palace, but now it was the New Year's Festival, Yu Xi was not at home, Yu Ziran must be there, she couldn't find Yu Xi, and she was looking for Yu Ziran the same.

She couldn't figure it out, she and Yu Xi had no enmity for a long time, and she was kind to Xi, why would Yu Xi stumble her and come up with such a trick to harm her?

Li Luan'er went to Yu's house with a full of anger, asked Ma Fang to knock on the door, the porter opened the door to inquire, Ma Fang reported the name of the Li family, and the porter hurriedly ran back to report.

After a while, Yu Xi came out with Yu Ziran's uncle and nephew.

Li Luan'er got out of the carriage and saw Yu Xi, her face became even more ugly.

Yu Xi was stunned for a moment, hugged his fists and said: "The eldest lady is a rare guest, please ......."

Yu Ziran also made a gesture to invite, Li Luan'er snorted coldly and stepped into Yu's house.

Yu Xi and Yu Ziran accompanied each other, not equal to Xi asking questions, Li Luan'er said first: "Lord Yu, the slave family wants to ask you when you offended you, the slave family was born in the countryside, has never seen the world, and will not deal with things with a thin mouth and is not favorable, if you offend you in speaking and doing things, please also sue the slave family, so that the slave family has a number in their hearts, but you must not hide it, so that the slave family offends people and they don't know what is wrong."
