Xia Wen was busy tutoring Xia Wu during the New Year, and the cause of the incident was that Zhao Changqing mentioned that it was better to ask Xia Wu to go to the examiner to learn. At first, Xia Wen was worried that Xia Wu was from a foreign country, and the official schools in the border city would not be accepted. This obstacle does not exist here in Zhao Changqing, Zhao Lizi was born to be a shrewd person, since Liguo studied in the official school, Lizi donated silver to the official school every year, as little as one or two hundred, more than thousands, year after year, he has already become a righteous businessman in the border city. Zhao Changqing asked Lizi to dredge up one or two with the official school, and the official school twisted a few times, but because of the face of the rich man of Pear, he also twisted and agreed, but asked Xia Wu to take the exam with the primary school students who wanted to go to school, and the results were passed.

Xia Wen was afraid that his younger brother would not be able to pass the exam, so he wasted his wife's kindness, so he began to tutor his younger brother, which annoyed Xia Wu to death, and complained to Zhao Changqing, "Sister-in-law, don't ask my brother to tell me a book." He talks about one thing, my father talks about one thing, and I don't know who I want to listen to. ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Isn't it possible to tell two truths in one book?" ”

Xia Wudao, "They can't wait for me to come out of the top exam." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "I told your eldest brother, you can review your homework with peace of mind, don't worry, I listen to your books by heart, it's not a big problem." "She has read all the entrance exam questions of the government school in previous years, and she can pass the book by memorizing it well.

Different from Xia Yu's lively temperament, Xia Wu was a little shy, but quite polite, "There is a sister-in-law." ”

When Zhao Changqing told Xia Wen about the matter, Xia Wen muttered, "This kid doesn't know what to do." He flipped out a few articles he had done last night from the table and said, "Isn't my brother-in-law going to take the Xiucai exam again this year, I will bet a few questions on him." ”

Zhao Changqing didn't know much about the imperial examination, and asked curiously, "Can this exam question still be charged?" ”

Xia Wen smiled, "Stupid words, what can't be bet." The show is the question of the local chief officer, what kind of articles the chief officer likes on weekdays, and then find out the articles that the chief officer has written in the past, and after a few years of comparison, you can also guess one or two. I bet on several questions when I took the Xiucai exam, and I also bet on the exam. ”

"I haven't heard that you have passed the exam?"

"I went to the exam in a hurry, but I forgot to take my book bag, which contained my household registration, school status, and Xiucai's test results, so I didn't pass the test." Xia Wen was very depressed.

Zhao Changqing couldn't help but wonder, "Why are you so confused?" ”

"Time is also fate." Xia Wen's words were endless, "I used to feel unlucky, but now that I think about it, I can't say that my bad luck was just to let me come to the border city to meet you." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Sweet words." ”

"Sincerely." Xia Wen smiled, took the finished article and showed it to Zhao Changqing, "Lady, how is my word?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "The iron draws the silver hook, and the wind and bones are strong." ”

Xia Wen asked again, "Lady, how is my article?" ”

Zhao Changqing pretended to be present, "The writing is brilliant, and the reading is unconventional." ”

Xia Wen asked again, "How is my character?" ”

Zhao Changqing said, "Yunwen Yunwu, first-class character." ”

Xia Wen almost rolled to the ground laughing. Zhao Changqing slapped him lightly, "Laugh quietly." "Why is it so loud.

Xia Wen and Zhao Changqing lived in the East Chamber, and Mrs. Xia could hear the laughter of her eldest son in the main house, and Mrs. Xia muttered to her husband, "Since the eldest became a parent, he has been happy every day." ”

Old Man Xia smiled, "That's not good." ”

"It's better to be steady."

Master Xia smiled, "You're not happy if I'm stable, not to mention that my son is getting married." "Who is not happy to marry such a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law? His son was born blessed, and others can't envy him.

Mrs. Xia snorted lightly and scolded in a low voice, "It's not serious." ”

On the morning of the second day, Xia Wen said to his mother, "My brother-in-law is going to take the Xiucai exam this year, and I will go over this evening to see if there is anything that can help, so I won't come back for dinner." ”

Mrs. Xia said, "There are newly bought white apricots at home, and the fruit is so tight, bring a basket with you." ”

Xia Wendao, "When I deliver the meal at noon, let the girl send it to the medicine hall together, I walked to the medicine hall with Changqing, and it was not convenient to carry the white apricots." "Xia Wen is heavy on health, and he usually gets up early when he has nothing to do, and walks with Zhao Changqing to the medicine hall after breakfast.

Mrs. Xia smiled, "It's okay." ”

Zhao Changqing's medicine hall is close to home, and sometimes he often goes back to his parents' house in the afternoon. This time, she and Xia Wen went to her mother's house for dinner, which was nothing unusual. Hearing that Xia Wenzhuan tried it for Zhao Changning's show, Ling smiled, "You have a heart." Said to Zhao Changning, "Go to the study with your brother-in-law, and listen to your brother-in-law talk about the way to show talents." "The son-in-law is also a former talent, even if his fame is gone, his strength is still there. Xia Wen cared about Zhao Changning so much, and Ling's impression of him changed slightly.

Zhao Changning and Pear Fruit ended up together last year, Pear Fruit was on the list, but Zhao Changning was off the list, he was lenient and didn't feel anything, and he was going to take the exam again this year. After listening to his mother's words, he took Xia Wen to his house, leaving Zhao Changqing to talk to Mrs. Zhao and the Ling family.

Old Mrs. Zhao saw Zhao Changqing's eyebrows stretching and knew that her life was going well, and asked her some trivial things about her in-laws with a smile, but Ling was a little absent-minded. Mrs. Zhao knew her daughter-in-law's thoughts very well, and after saying a few words, she said, "Go to her room with your mother and sit down, and the mother and daughter will also talk about some private things." ”

Ling smiled, "The old lady also teased me." But he didn't refuse, and took Zhao Changqing to the main house after saluting.

When the Ling family arrived at the main house, he showed a sad face, and the white woman came in with tea, and when she saw that Ling's face was not good, she didn't dare to speak much, so she took the tea and retreated. Zhao Changqing took the tea, first gave one to the Ling family, took another one for himself, took a sip slowly, and asked, "What's wrong with my mother, it seems that she has something on her mind?" ”

Ling Shi tugged at the handkerchief, so anxious that he sparked, and said, "It's just a person who is angry!" I'm saying, if you don't come back these days, I'll have to send someone to call you back. You don't know, Ah Rong's girl is simply crazy. ”

Zhao Changqing asked, "How do you say this?" ”

"I won't hide this from you, but you can't tell others, even your son-in-law, otherwise people will look down on your sister." Ling's eyes were slightly red, and he instructed Fang to say in a low voice, "You don't know, Ah Rong is a heart to look at Ah Teng." ”

Zhao Changqing said in his heart, I already knew about this. Seeing that Zhao Changqing was not half surprised, Ling raised his eyebrows, "Could it be that you actually know?" ”

Zhao Changqing's face was impassive, and he said, "I'm not blind, I can hide who she can hide from her thoughts, I can already see it." My cousin has no intention of her, and I know that. "Life is so incredible, in the previous life, Ling Teng looked at Zhao Rong as bad, and in this life, he relied on how Zhao Rong promised himself, but Ling Teng was like iron.

Hearing Zhao Changqing say this, the Ling family had nothing to say, and complained to the eldest daughter, "If Ah Teng is willing, this is not said, then the dead girl is willing to marry, and she is married." Ah Teng is not happy at all, she is still not giving up, you say, what is this like? Your father was so angry that he didn't feel happy for days. ”

Zhao Changqing said, "The second uncle's house is not a good place to go, the second aunt refuses to go back after coming out of the temple, the third cousin and the left home, not to mention that Cousin Teng has two rooms on one shoulder, how can the daughter-in-law be easy to do?" ”

"Everyone understands this, that dead girl just can't listen to it." Ling sighed, "It's not just that the daughter-in-law is not happy, but this matter of getting married, the male family is a little bit of the female family, and it is better to marry in the past." It's already low for a daughter-in-law, if it's a woman's upside down, it's your second aunt and other talents, how can you live? ”

Ling hated that iron could not become steel, gritted his teeth and said, "It's all out of my belly, and Ah Rong Suri also understands that when it comes to such a major juncture, he doesn't have half of your skills." "Although the eldest daughter's family affairs are bumpy, it is nothing more than that the eldest daughter is unwilling to marry, and in the end, even if she picks a poor family like the Xia family, Zhao Changqing has his own silver and industry, and his life is still comfortable. When he came to Zhao Rong, he actually went to post a man upside down, even if the person who posted it upside down was his nephew, Ling's heart still didn't like it.

Zhao Changqing said, "Life is not lived by oneself. ”

Ling sighed, hugged the eldest daughter and said, "I can't persuade her, you are dear sisters, you go and persuade her." "It's not that the relationship between the eldest daughter and the second daughter is good, it's just that the eldest daughter has skills, and the Ling family is quite convinced.

Zhao Changqing did not accept his mother's messenger, and said directly, "Where is Ah Rong easy to persuade, if you want me to say, find my cousin to come and explain to her, completely cut off her thoughts, and it will be done." ”

Ling said, "How can I talk to Ah Teng about this?" "Wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the second daughter?

Zhao Changqing smiled, "Mother doesn't have to worry, let's not say that our two families are aunts and uncles, and the second aunt will no longer return to the temple with a dead face, and our family has nothing to say." Even if he called his cousin, according to his character, he wouldn't say anything about it. It's important to keep things secret, and not to alarm other people. As soon as these words came out, the Ling clan didn't feel anything, but Zhao Changqing was secretly surprised first, it seems that I am not the naïve and stupid Zhao Changqing I was earlier. I've long been accustomed to quickly analyzing the pros and cons, making judgments, and then making decisions.

The Ling clan was still anxious about Zhao Rong's affairs, gritted his teeth and said, "If it can't be done, you have to use this method!" He babbled a lot about family affairs with Zhao Changqing, and Ling sighed, "You don't feel anything when you're at home, and when you get married, I suddenly lose my arm." "The key is that the person who came up with the idea is gone, and the Ling family is very unaccustomed.

Zhao Changqing smiled, "In a year or two, I will tell A-Ning a daughter-in-law, and my mother is still afraid that she will not have arms?" ”

Speaking of his son, Ling laughed again, "Someone really asked me about A-Ning's family affairs, I see, there are one or two good ones, but the daughters are still young, A-Ning also has to take the Xiucai exam, boys, it doesn't matter if it's a year or two at night." ”

Zhao Changqing smiled, "A-Ning is straightforward, find him a generous and dignified girl, not only can he help his mother manage family affairs, but the husband and wife are harmonious, and life is good." ”

Ling Shi smiled, "These words hit my heart. I hope that A-Ning can come out of the show sooner, and then I can pick up the family affairs again. "The family is already a six-grade family, and Ling's heart is naturally high.

The mother and daughter talked happily, and Zhao Yong went home in the evening and was happy to see the eldest daughter and son-in-law. When it was time to eat, Mrs. Zhao saw that Ling's face was full of smiles, and her sorrow disappeared, so she knew that Zhao Changqing had comforted her, and she smiled in her heart, without saying a word. Although Zhao Rong was a little lazy, nothing happened to ruin the fun. Zhao Changyu was not very old, and he no longer wanted to be at the same table with the women, so he followed his father and brother to the men's table for dinner. Ling couldn't help but nag a few words.

Ling got Zhao Changqing's idea, discussed it with her husband, and then asked Ling Teng to talk to Zhao Rong about it.

Ling Teng listened to Ling's snot and tears about Zhao Rong's infatuation, was speechless for a while, and said in a low voice, "Sister Qing is two years younger than me, Sister Rong is four years younger than Sister Qing, and I am six years younger than me. ”

Ling wiped away his tears and said, "I know you are an understanding child, but that girl has drilled the tip of the horns, and I can't do anything more." You have to make it clear to her and completely cut off her thoughts. ”

What Ling Teng could say, he had to respond.

Since he was a child, Ling Teng's heart has been on Zhao Changqing, he never thought that Zhao Rong would think of himself as a lady. It seems that in the years he didn't notice, Zhao Rong has grown from a little girl to a slim girl.

In the girl's boudoir, Ling Teng was a little nervous for no reason. Zhao Rong poured a cup of tea for Ling Teng, where did Ling Teng have the heart to drink tea, and said softly, "Sister Rong, I-"

"Cousin doesn't have to say it, I know what my cousin wants to say." Zhao Rong smiled sadly, "Since I was a child, my cousin came to my house, and I like to play with my sister the most. When I got to my sister's house, I praised this, and then I praised that. I always think about inviting my cousin to my house to play, even if it's just a quiet cup of tea. ”

Ling Teng's age has already passed the innocence of talking about love, and he sighed slightly, "My cousin is very loved, I really can't bear it." ”

Zhao Rong's eyes were sour, "How long my cousin has watched my sister, I have watched my cousin for how long." "You just love Zhao Changqing I, but I am infatuated with you for two lives, why can't you see it.

Ling Teng said softly, "I'm sorry, I only treat you as a sister." With that, he got up and left.

Zhao Rong didn't stay, Ling Teng hurriedly left from Zhao Rong's window, Zhao Rong looked at the spring light in the courtyard, and muttered, "Why did you forget me." "Why did you forget me?

Why did you forget it?

The Ling family originally thought that Ling Teng would make it clear, Zhao Rong should be sober, who knows, Zhao Rong is still unwilling to marry, and the Ling family is so annoyed that he doesn't know what to do. Thinking about when to call the eldest daughter back, it would be better to discuss an idea.

Zhao Changqing also encountered an unexpected incident now, Zhao Changqing was very surprised, and his apricot eyes widened, "Sister Lin, are you going to the imperial capital?" ”

Boss Lin smiled, "Yes, I originally heard that the prosperity of the border city did not allow Jiangnan, and it was not the right time for me to come, but now I am not allowed to trade with the Ximan, and there are fewer rich people in the border city." I have unexpectedly looked glamorous in this life, but in fact, it is very limited, and here, no matter how big I do, it is just king in the well. I heard that the imperial capital is really prosperous, and I am ready to go to the imperial capital to break through. If you can make a face, you can go to me when you go to the imperial capital in the future. ”

Zhao Changqing and Boss Lin had a good relationship, and he was very reluctant, and said, "How far away is that, Sister Lin is leaving, what can we do with our business?" ”

Boss Lin smiled, "You are in business, how can you be so stupid." In addition to the fairy beauty pills, we are partnering with rouge gouache, both of which are owned by the shopkeeper Li, and there are pears to watch, you don't have to worry, I am nothing more than a commission. The rest of my shop's materials, my loud signboard, I'm afraid that no one will buy it? I exchanged all 20,000 taels of silver into gold, and exchanged it for a silver ticket to carry with me. The dart shop is also invited, and after a few days of handover, I will go to the imperial capital with my mother. ”

Zhao Changqing said angrily, "Sister Lin should have communicated with me earlier." ”

Boss Lin smiled, "It's not that I won't contact you in the future, I asked Shopkeeper Li earlier, the imperial capital also has our shop, I arrived in the imperial capital to settle down, I have to trouble him to write a letter of introduction, first go to our rouge shop to settle down, and then I will give you a letter." ”

Zhao Changqing asked East and West, "Which dart shop did you invite?" Are you ready for the road? I asked Xianggong to prepare a few pills of commonly used medicine for you to bring on your body, and it is convenient to use it for headaches and brain fevers. What's more, it's hot when you see it, and you have to guard against heat stroke......"

Listening to Zhao Changqing's long-winded words with a smile, Boss Lin smiled and said, "You have been married these days, and you haven't asked yet, how are you doing?" ”

"It's good."

"That's good."

Boss Lin explained to Zhao Changqing about going to the imperial capital, and asked Zhao Changqing to go back to the medicine hall. Zhao Changqing said to Xia Wen on the way home, and Xia Wen was speechless, "Boss Lin is really magnificent, and her business is also one of the best among her peers in the border city." "I even want to go to the imperial capital to do bigger business.

Zhao Changqing sullenly, "Yes." I really can't bear to let Sister Lin go. ”

Xia Wendao, "It's okay if you are reluctant, I don't know how sad Second Brother Ji is." "Xiao Ji's account room's admiration for Boss Lin can be seen by anyone with long eyes.

Zhao Changqing sighed lightly, "That's the same." ”
