This year's spring festival has ended at the end of March, the list of April 12, Song Haoting ranked eighth, in the palace examination on the 15th, Song Haoting and the first first, ranked second in the second class, and became the official gold list Jinshi, such a big happy event It stands to reason that the Song family will start to hold a wedding banquet after receiving the joy, but the problem is that Lin Zhi is about to give birth, and the Song family itself is not that frivolous family, Song Qiu Fei and Song Xiangyuan discussed it slightly, and decided to wait for the birth of the child to celebrate with his father.
The number of daughters in the Song family is small, and girls are very favored at home, for this reason, Lin Zhi's birth is male or female, it does not matter to the Song family, whether it is male or female, Song Qiu Fei and Song Xiangyuan do not mind letting him (her) dip in the light of their father, and hold a congratulatory banquet with their father, after Lin Zhi won a man in one fell swoop and gave birth to the eldest grandson of the Song family, even if the Song family has no idea of patriarchy in their hearts, they are also overjoyed about it, after all, for the ancients, the weight of the eldest grandson is extraordinary.
On the third day after the Song Haoting Palace, he set off and returned to Song County, his wife was about to give birth, he couldn't stay in Beijing all the time, after the list of scholars came out, the court would not arrange errands for them at the first time, which had a month or two of vacations, this time was used to arrange many trivial matters at home for the scholars, and second, let the court have time to understand the strengths of everyone, and then assign them corresponding positions according to each person's strengths.
The Song family is the eldest grandson of the third child, and the title of the Song Haoting gold list, the two happy events are combined to do wine, this grand is extraordinary, the Lin family and the Xiao family are also extra cautious in preparing the gift, when Xiao Nan was in the capital, he prepared the gifts that he needed to give, over the years, the Song family's help to Xiao Nan's family is not a star and a half, Xiao Nan is not a person who does not know how to be grateful, and she made a lot of effort when preparing the gift, and her tea at that time won the crown, although the box of tea was accepted by the palace, she got a bonus of five thousand taels of Wen.
Five thousand taels of silver, if converted into the current RMB, there are millions, there is money in his hands, Xiao Nan is not a stingy person, in order to prepare a decent gift, Xiao Nan spent three thousand taels of silver, as for the Lin family's gift, even if Xiao Nan has this heart, he will not interfere, Lin Xiucai himself is a person from a family, plus his own ability, the gift of his great-grandson, he will prepare it, if Xiao Nan runs to do a lot of things, it is really a taboo, some things, even if the relationship is close, it can't be done casually.
On the first day of the first month of May, Xiao Nan's family and Lin Xiu's family gathered together and went to Song County, the Lin family has their own carriage, and then go to the county seat, there is no need to rent a car, Lin Zhengjie and Lin Zhengtao of the Lin family are studying in Song County, only Lin Xiucai and his wife and Uncle Lin are in the family, the Lin family of four, plus the Xiao family of three, a total of seven people, if all sit in the Lin family's carriage, but some can't sit down.
However, Xiao Nan has a horse, she took Xiao Zhen to ride together, Uncle Lin acted as a coachman, and only Lin Xiucai and his wife, aunt and Lin four people needed to take the car, this kind of carriage sat four people, just right, and the group set off after breakfast, about a little after noon, and arrived at the Hongwei Dart Bureau.
The Song family used to only open a dart game, Song Qiufei, the head of Song's dart, was extremely famous in the rivers and lakes, and the Hongwei dart game was very famous in black and white, but at that time, the Song family could only be regarded as a force in the rivers and lakes, and it was not prominent in the eyes of ordinary people, but now it is different, first Song Qiuyi's Hongyuan Chamber of Commerce was squeezed into one of the top ten chambers of commerce in the Great Song Dynasty three years ago, and then, Song Haoting won the jinshi again.
In this way, the lintel of the Song family has undergone great changes, a family, the disciples are all competitive, there are people who can make money, and some people have embarked on a career through study, and there is enough force to deter, such a family only does not go wrong halfway, and will soon develop into a real wealthy family, even if Song Haoting has not yet been assigned a position, no one in the entire Song County dares to despise the Song family for half a point.
On the first day of the first month of May, Hongwei Dart Bureau was really a cloud of guests, the guests who came to celebrate in addition to Song Qiufei and Song Xiangyuan's relatives and friends, the gentry and wealthy families in Song County came to congratulate them, not only Song County, but even Luoyang people with heads and faces have come a lot, the distance is far, yesterday to Song County, as for Song County, not to mention, that is to say, most of these people arrived earlier than the Lin family and Xiao Nan and others.
When the Lin family's carriage arrived at the Hongwei Dart Bureau, the Song family had already arrived with many guests, and when these people saw the Lin family's carriage, their expressions were quite strange, the Lin family's carriage was the kind of small carriage that could only sit four people, and the horses pulling the carriage were just ordinary horses.
"The Song family is up, it's just that they are in-laws......" As soon as the Lin family's carriage entered the door, there was a snobbish person who spoke with contempt, but as soon as this discussion started, it was blocked by the next scene, and the Song family heard that the Lin family's carriage had arrived, not only Song Haoting immediately greeted him, but also Song Qiufei came out with him.
As soon as the Lin family's carriage stopped, Song Haoting personally lifted the curtain and helped Lin Xiucai and his wife down, as for the Lin family's aunt and Lin, they are not very old, although Song Haoting is their junior, but it is not easy to help each other, these two can only be done by Xiao Nan, after everyone got off, Song Qiu Fei laughed and took Lin Xiucai's hand, and personally led him to his own yard.
Lin Xiucai and Uncle Lin are Song Haoting's father-in-law and ancestor, and it is understandable that his son-in-law came out to greet him, but now even Song Qiu Fei is so polite to Lin Xiucai, so the guests on the scene are not surprised, looking at the back of Song Qiu Fei and Lin Xiucai talking and laughing, some people couldn't help but whisper: "The Song family looks very kind, the family is developed, but they don't have the slightest frivolous atmosphere of nouveau riche, and they are still respectful as always, far inferior to their own in-laws." ”
"What do you know, this Lin family doesn't seem to have the scenery of the Song family for the time being, but the family is not bad, the three generations of the Lin family, all the adult males are all Xiucai, Lin Lao Xiucai's second son is now the commander of Anyang County, his eldest grandson just passed the county's Xie Yuan three years ago, and is now a student of Hongxi Academy, with his grades, this autumn is not a problem, in another three years, maybe the Lin family will also produce a jinshi, such a family, it is not a shame." There are also people who know the details of the Lin family at the same time.
Among the guests present, there were two people who had not said a word since they saw Xiao Nan and the Lin family enter the door, only their eyes had been staring at them, these two people were the heads of the Yang family and the Fu family from this county, the Yang family has always been not very good with the Song family, and the grievances between the two of them will not be clear for a while.
