Chapter 641: Hilarious
The warmth after the flute, in addition to being gentle and elegant or lively, has a quiet atmosphere, which is particularly eye-catching. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The number of people who came to the door to ask for relatives also increased.
Fortunately, everyone is still worried about their own face, but they just supported a familiar and tight-mouthed middleman, and came to the door to test Peng Jin's tone in private, lest it become someone else's joke if the family affair fails.
Peng Jin still has John's matter hanging in her heart, and she is inevitably a little hesitant when choosing a husband for Nuan Nuan, and she can't make up her mind.
Thinking about it, Peng Jin threw this problem to Liu Shi, frowned and asked: "You see that Nuan Nuan is now in time, and you have to hurry up and look at each other, but there is John in the middle of this, what should I do?" ”
Liu Shi replied very casually: "A woman, a hundred families, what is there to worry about!" You can see the good ones, pick them out after consideration, and then see if Nuan Nuan has a favorite! ”
"It's simple!" Peng Jin glanced at Liu Shi and sighed, "We all know John's thoughts, and the relationship between the two families is so close, whether it succeeds or not, we have to give someone an explanation!" What is it to hang like this, or to refuse it for no reason! ”
"What's that to say?" Liu Shi shook his head and smiled, "Could it be that because the relationship between the two families is good, we have to agree to what John asks, right?" If that's the case, some of my good colleagues in the yamen have probed me in private, and even some young men have the courage to come to me to see each other, so do I have to agree? The key is to see how the person is, whether the home is clean, and whether Nuan Nuan likes it! ”
It's easy to say!
Peng Jin sighed and said quietly: "What you said is right. It's just that how can it be simple and direct to deal with human relations. Alas, forget it, I'll go to the trouble myself! ”
Qingzhi couldn't come up with a better suggestion after discussing it with Liu Shi, so Peng Jin simply thought about it by herself.
However, this thinking dragged on until early autumn.
The first batch of early-maturing fruits in Daxing Grange had already fallen from the trees, and Xu An and Lan'er picked out the most colorful and delicious two baskets and sent them to Ning Anbo's Mansion in person.
It just so happened that Mrs. Josephine also brought her daughter Elizabeth to the mansion as a guest, so they tried it together.
Because of John's heartfelt feelings, everyone felt a little embarrassed to get along, so ordinary John rarely came to Ning'anbo Mansion again, and even if he came, he went to the front yard to ask Liu Zhixue after saluting.
In this regard, Liu Shi also sighed with Peng Jin in private, saying that John is extremely talented and diligent, and if he participates in the imperial examination, he has a great chance of being able to pass the Jinshi examination in the end. It's just a pity that there is no precedent for Fanbang people to participate in the imperial examination in Daqi.
This is also the reason why Peng Jin hesitated again and again about whether to consider John as a candidate for son-in-law. Even if Mr. Josephine returned to Daqi and was summoned by Emperor Taixi, and his official position was promoted to three levels, it would be the same.
Now, seeing these seasonal fruits, Mrs. Josephine can't help but recall: "Seeing these bright and beautiful fruits, I think of the scene when we returned to the capital from Quanzhou and took the children to Daxing Grange every autumn to climb trees and pick fruits to eat!" ”
Elizabeth was still young at that time, and after many years, she didn't remember many things clearly, but she vaguely remembered the scene of a few people running around the field and laughing, and when she heard this, she smiled and said: "Yes, I still remember that my sister is the best at climbing trees!" Not even my brother! ”
When Nuan Nuan on the side heard this, she raised her head proudly and boasted: "I am much more powerful at climbing trees now than before, I don't need to hold the trunk to climb up again, I can jump to the tree with one kick!" ”
"Really?!" Elizabeth was pleasantly surprised, "I'd love to see it with my own eyes!" ”
"Of course it's true!" Nuan Nuan replied confidently, and sent an invitation to prove herself, "If you don't believe it, after the two of you Mr. Xiao give us a ten-year vacation, let's go to Daxing Grange, and I will personally go up to the tree to pick fruits for you to eat!" ”
Elizabeth nodded her head again and again, her eyes curled into a crescent moon with a smile.
After being away from Beijing for a few years, she hasn't had that kind of day running around the mountains and fields for a long time, and it makes people feel enthusiastic when they think about it.
The two girls agreed and came to their respective mothers.
Mrs. Josephine recalled the old relationship, of course, there was no reason not to agree, and Peng Jin also had the habit of taking her children to Daxing Grange to pick fruits every autumn, so she readily agreed.
"It's better to wait until the end of August, it just so happens that Qixia Academy is also on vacation on a monthly basis, take Zhan'er and Che'er, and let's go to Daxing Grange to pick fruits together!" Peng Jin proposed.
Although Liu Zhan and Liu Che have their own preferences for the subjects offered by the college, they are both very diligent and hardworking, and they both passed the children's examination in the spring, and are ready to transfer to Guozijian to study in the spring of next year.
Now that the completion of their studies in Qixia Academy is imminent, the two children study harder, and every time they come back from monthly vacation, they mostly hide in the study to do their studies, Peng Jin is very worried that the two brothers are too tired from studying, so they want to take this opportunity to drag them out to get close to nature and relax.
"Great!" Nuan Nuan applauded in agreement, and said with sparkling eyes, "When the time comes, let Brother Che delve into a new fruit-picking tool, so that we don't have to work too hard!" ”
Liu Che always likes to tinker with all kinds of things, and often has new and useful new inventions.
Liu Bo, who was fiddling with the fruit on the side, didn't know if he was arranging troops or building a camp, raised his head when he heard this, waved his chubby little hands, and cheered with great interest: "I'm going too!" I'm going too! ”
Peng Jin was amused by his youngest son's actions, smiled back, and said lovingly: "Okay, good! No one can be missing, and you can't be missing! ”
Compared with Peng Jin's doting, Nuan Nuan, the eldest sister, taught on the side: "When you get to Daxing Grange, you are not allowed to go to the tenant's house to fight with chickens and cats, making chickens fly and dogs jump, and people will turn over on their backs!" ”
Liu Bo pursed his lips and ran to Peng Jin's arms with open arms, seeking refuge.
Peng Jin was amused by his youngest son's childish and cute behavior, and hurriedly comforted him in his arms.
Liu Bo took a look at the loophole, squeezed his eyebrows at Nuan Nuan, and stared at Nuan Nuan angrily.
If it weren't for Peng Jin's special love for Liu Bo, Nuan Nuan would have wanted to beat down this bear child who was making trouble everywhere.
Preaching has no effect on Liu Bo, since he can't be expected to "wake up", then beat him with his fists until he is honest!
