The little guy who watched the list didn't come back until near noon.

"Madam, I'm overjoyed, my cousin has passed the exam!" The little guy stepped forward with an excited face: "There are too many people watching the list, and the slave squeezed in for a long time before squeezing in to take a look." The young master of the table won the eleventh place in the exam. ”

A total of 230 people were admitted in the autumn season, and eleven were already excellent rankings.

Zheng was very happy to hear the good news, and generously rewarded all the subordinates in the courtyard with thick red envelopes. Although Ye Qingning didn't say anything, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were full of joy and pride.

Ye Qinglan smiled and quipped, "Congratulations to the sixth sister." ”

Ye Qingning glanced at Ye Qinglan with disgust: "It's not that I passed the Qiu Yu exam, what is there to congratulate." ”

"Honorable husband and wife!" Ye Qinglan connected very smoothly. Unexpectedly, he was glared at fiercely, but that look was not fierce, but contained infinite shyness.

Ye Qinglan smiled straightly. Cui Yu lived in the mansion before, and Ye Qingning teased her every day, but now the feng shui is finally taking turns.

Cui Wan was worried about Cui Yu and sent someone to Cui's mansion to inquire about the news. In the afternoon, Cui's mansion sent good news. Cui Yujing is the first in high school!

Cui Wan was excited and happy, and hurriedly began to prepare congratulatory gifts.

Ye Qinglan quickly learned the good news, both happy and a little surprised. Cui Yu always looks a little dazed on weekdays, but he really didn't expect to be able to pass the exam in one fell swoop.

The scientific examination at this time was much stricter than the college entrance examination in later generations. The admission ratio is about ten to one, and it is already a great thing to be able to pass the exam, not to mention that it is still the top of the list. Xie Yuan is equivalent to the champion of the national college entrance examination!

No wonder Cui Wan was so happy, even when she heard such good news, she felt that she should prepare a small congratulatory gift. But what should I give? It's obviously unrealistic to go out and buy gifts, besides. With her little private money, she can't buy anything valuable. After thinking about it, it's just a matter of doing it yourself.

I can't do needlework, and writing, calligraphy and painting are not my strengths. Why don't you make something to eat with your own hands? However, she hadn't been in the kitchen since she had crossed......

Just when Ye Qinglan racked her brains for the congratulatory gift. The eldest girl beside Cui Wan came to Chaoyun and said with a smile: "Miss Ten, the young grandmother told the slave maid to ask you to come over and talk!" ”

Ye Qinglan responded with a smile.

Seeing Cui Wan with a radiant smile on her face, Ye Qinglan's first sentence was: "Brother Cui Shi's high school Xie Yuan." What a great event. Congratulations to my sister-in-law. "My brother is so promising, Cui Wan naturally has brilliance on her face.

Cui Wan smiled: "Yes, I really didn't expect him to be able to pass the Xie Yuan exam." Not only the father and mother were happy. The people of the Cui clan all felt that there was light on their faces. I'm going to hold a three-day running water banquet to celebrate. I'm going to go back tomorrow and my mother-in-law has already agreed. If you are free, why don't you follow me to Cui's Mansion too! ”

If the second brother saw Ye Qinglan go to Daoxi together, I don't know how happy he would be.

Ye Qinglan hesitated slightly, then nodded with a smile. It's too depressing to stay in the house every day, so it's good to go out for a walk. Anyway, it's not that I haven't been to Cui's mansion.

Ye Qingning has decided on family affairs, and he can't leave the house at will. I could only watch Ye Qinglan go to Cui's Mansion with Cui Wan and Ye Yuanwei. Zheng went to the Dingguo Mansion to send congratulatory gifts.

He heard the spread of the subordinates and hurriedly greeted him. Cui Yu also came to greet Cui Wan, and when he saw the familiar figure beside Cui Wan, Cui Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, and a sweetness surged in his heart.

Unexpectedly, she also came to congratulate him.

"Congratulations to Brother Cui Shi's high school Xie Yuan." Ye Qinglan smiled generously: "In a hurry, I didn't prepare any special gifts. A small gift, please don't dislike Brother Cui. ”

Cui Yu took the delicate wooden box with his own hands, opened it and took a look, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said happily: "This is a good inkstone, and the tenth sister really has a heart." ”

…… She won't tell anyone that this inkstone was actually touched from the study of cheap daddy Ye Chengli.

Ye Qinglan smiled without changing her face: "Brother Cui Shi is polite. ”

Out of the corner of his eye, He Shi saw Cui Yu's excited look, which was angry and funny. It's just an inkstone, as for being happy like this? Stupid boy with no prospects!

Cui Mansion is going to set up a flowing water banquet for three days, and today is the first day, and all the people who come are from the Cui clan. Cui Wan greeted the ladies one by one. Ye Qinglan didn't have to do anything, just follow Cui Wan's side and keep a decent smile.

However, there are a lot of eyes on her.

Cui Wan rarely came back, she didn't bring anyone else, but brought her husband's cousin over. Thinking of Cui Yu who has not yet decided on a marriage, it naturally makes people think about it. As a result, looking at Ye Qinglan's gaze, there was a lot more curiosity and interest.

This Miss Ye Shi is about twelve or thirteen years old, not tall, but she has a pleasant appearance, and her speech and demeanor are very decent and generous. There are also a lot of girls from Cui's side branch here, but they are all compared.

Ye Qinglan secretly regretted it. I knew it would be so eye-catching, I really shouldn't have come to this trip. Looking at the eyes of everyone's evaluation, he has become a commodity on the shelf, and he is judged to see if he can be worthy of the youngest and most dazzling young man in Cui Mansion. This feeling is really not too good.

Cui Wan has always been careful, and seeing that Ye Qinglan was not interested in talking, she led Ye Qinglan to the side hall to sit down and take a nap.

Before I could say anything, I saw a woman in her thirties walk in with a smile: "Grandma is back." ”

Cui Wan smiled slightly, and immediately greeted the visitor as if nothing had happened.

Ye Qinglan casually glanced at this woman a few times, looking at the dress, obviously she was also the female dependant of the side branch of the Cui Mansion, and her appearance was not bad, and if she looked closely, she was a little familiar. However, she was sure that she had never seen this woman before.

Ye Qinglan had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and she had already guessed the identity of the person who came.

This woman should be Cui Jing's mother. What is the purpose of coming to Cui Wan, it is naturally self-evident. Sure enough, I heard this woman laugh and say, "...... Jingniang is young and ignorant, if there is something wrong with what she says and does, please bear with her aunt and grandmother. ”

Cui Wan smiled gently: "Fourth aunt, don't say that. Jing Niang has always been gentle and sensible, and even her mother-in-law often praises her. Now that she's pregnant, it's not appropriate to come out and walk around, otherwise I'll take her back with me this time. ”

The daughter married as a concubine and has no qualifications to return to her parents' home, let alone go to see Cui Jing. But how can a mother not think about her daughter?

The woman accompanied the smiling face and asked about Cui Jing's current situation. Cui Wan smiled: "Jingniang has been pregnant for more than five months, and her belly is not small. However, the tire image is very stable. I have a good appetite in recent days. I guess it's time to give birth by the end of the year. The fourth aunt just rest assured, I will definitely take good care of Jingniang. ”

The woman thanked her and went away satisfied.

Cui Wan looked at the woman's figure, thinking of what her mother He had said, and her mind was chaotic. In fact, in the past two months, the He family has sent two messages to her, and she wanted to send a few experienced midwives to Cui Jing, but she blocked them......

Ye Qinglan knew her thoughts very well, and whispered comfortingly: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and my sister-in-law doesn't always have to worry about this." "As long as Cui Wan has a firm position, the He family can't force Cui Wan to do that kind of thing that damages yin morality!

Cui Wan had a bitter word and couldn't help sighing. Ye Qinglan would say this because she didn't know the He family. But he knows his mother's temper very well. As long as it is about himself, let alone a Cui Jing, even if the blood relationship is closer, the He family will be ruthless......

As expected, after the lively luncheon, the He family sent someone to ask Cui Wan to go to the house to talk alone.

The mother and daughter whispered, and Ye Qinglan was naturally inconvenient to follow, so she had to stay with a few girls in Cui's Mansion.

After Cui Wan entered the house, He immediately ordered his subordinates to retreat, and only the mother and daughter were left in the house. There is no need to scruple when it comes to talking.

"Wan Niang, I sent someone to deliver a message to you before, why did you block it back?" He Shi frowned a little unhappily: "Jing Niang has been pregnant for more than five months. If you don't prepare early, it won't be easy for your mother-in-law to find a midwife. ”

Cui Wan didn't say anything.

He said again: "This time you came just in time. When I went back, I took the midwives with me. Anyway, Jing Niang was specially selected by our Cui family to be a noble concubine, and it is reasonable for me to send a few midwives over, and I don't think others will be suspicious. At that time, even if your mother-in-law is suspicious, as long as the child is born safely, she will not get to the bottom of it. When the time comes, you will express your sorrow and sadness, and make sure that no one suspects you......"

"Mother," Cui Wan plucked up the courage to interrupt He, "I don't want to take these midwives back." ”

He Shi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Are you worried that these midwives are not tight-lipping?" You just have to rest assured, these midwives were specially selected by me, and they have already been taken care of, and they will never show any tone afterwards......"

"That's not what I meant." Cui Wan didn't dare to look at He: "Mother, I won't treat Jing Niang like this." ”

……

He's mouth opened slightly, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Finally said the words hidden deep in her heart, Cui Wan only felt a sense of relaxation. But seeing He's incredulous look, Cui Wan couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

He Shi took a deep breath: "Wan Niang, what do you mean by what you just said, you might as well make it clearer." There was already a bit of anger in his words.

Cui Wan had expected that the He family would be angry, but she didn't panic, and said softly: "Mother, I know that you are doing this for my good." But I didn't want to. ”

Even if Cui Jing is not her cousin, she will never do anything to kill people and take children.
