Chapter 35 Intentions
After worshipping the ancestors and writing the family tree, Lu Qingrong followed Yin Pingru and Lu Yiduo back to the East Courtyard.
Lu Yiduo had some business to deal with, so he went directly to the study.
Yin Pingru hadn't seen Lu Qingrong's residence yet, so she went to the Wisteria Pavilion with her.
These days, Yin Pingru finally has a down-to-earth feeling today.
Lu Qingrong's entry into the Lu family tree was told to her by Lu Yiduo yesterday.
At the time, she was both moved and uneasy.
Lu Yiduo can really think about their mother and daughter, which makes her very moved, but she is worried that this matter will be opposed by the rest of the Lu family.
Now that the ancestral hall has been opened, the genealogy is already in black and white, and it cannot be changed, and the big stone in her heart has finally fallen to the ground.
When I came to the Wisteria Pavilion, I first saw the flower gallery surrounded by a cloud of lilac in front of the door.
On both sides of the flower gallery are white slender rectangular stone pillars, on which wooden flower stands are staggered, wisteria branches climb and entangle overhead, and the wisteria flowers hanging down are like a thick purple curtain, as if separating the flower gallery into a small world, and both inside and outside, are fragrant.
When you enter the house, you will see a whole set of new yellow rosewood furniture, the bright color is much younger than the black lacquered wood in the main house.
And what warms Yin Pingru's heart the most is that whether it is the Huanghuali carved stepping bed in the inner room, or the table, chair, table, brocade stool, etc., they are all shorter than the general size.
Lu Qingrong himself just realized that he didn't have time to look at it carefully yesterday, and now that he thinks about it, it's no wonder that the bed, which he usually finds it difficult to get up, went up so easily yesterday......
All morning, Yin Pingru was accompanying Lu Qingrong to put her little things in place.
Lu Yiduo had already said hello and would have dinner outside at noon, so the mother and daughter had lunch together in the Wisteria Pavilion.
Lu Qingrong could see the peace of mind in Yin Pingru's eyes, and she herself couldn't hide her excitement in her heart, thinking that they would definitely follow Lu Yiduo to Henan to take office, which must be completely different from the depression and struggle when she was in Jinan......
At this time, in the main courtyard, Lu Yizhong had already returned from reporting from the Ministry of Rites, and was telling Mrs. Lu about the things in the yamen.
"It turns out that this year's Jinshi, I am not the only one who went to the Ministry of Rites! and Chen Zan, who ranked eighth in the second class, almost failed to be admitted to the Jishi, and also went to work with me as a secretary. ”
Lu Yizhong said, "Hehe" smiled, and continued with some pride: "Today, Lord Sun of the Ministry of Rites also met with the two of us, encouraging us to study diligently, self-cultivation and self-saving, and also praised us for our solid learning, young and promising!" ”
Seeing that his eyebrows were fluttering, Mrs. Lu also smiled and didn't say anything.
I can't help but sigh in my heart that the little son I love the most is always more clever and not calm.
In fact, he was able to make up for the gap at the same level as Chen Zan, who ranked eighth in the second class this time, and the reason for this can be known as long as you think about it carefully.
This appointment and dismissal after the Beijing inspection, Lu Yiduo supposedly said that he should be promoted anyway, but because the officials really couldn't find someone who could replace him to Henan, he finally let him stay in his original position.
Now Lu Yizhong, a Jinshi ranked 45th in the second grade, actually directly entered the sixth department and became a Beijing official, which cannot but be said to be a weighing technique of the imperial court.
However, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites is just doing some internal chores such as sending and receiving documents and keeping seals in the yamen, which also makes Lu Yizhong so happy......
Mrs. Lu naturally didn't pour cold water on him, so she talked about other things.
"Last time, I heard you say that you plan to hire a nurturing grandmother for Sister Man'er, I don't know how you found it?"
Lu Yizhong didn't expect his mother to suddenly mention this, and he was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "I just have such an idea, and then I calculated it with Geng's family, and I think that the child is still too young, and it is not too late to wait for two years to invite you." ”
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she thought for a moment.
"It doesn't matter, if you meet a suitable one, please come to the house first, you can teach Sister Fang first, and then learn together when Sister Qian and Sister Man grow up!"
Lu Yizhong was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked directly: "Didn't Sister Fang and Sister Qian go back to Henan with their eldest brother?" ”
Two days ago, Lu Yiduo also asked him to help keep an eye on it, saying that he wanted to invite a better western seat for Lu Chengjie in the capital and go to Henan with him. So his mother's words made him a little confused.
Mrs. Lu didn't plan to explain in detail, but just said, "Isn't it that you haven't left yet, let's look for it first" and didn't say more.
Lu Yizhong came out of the main courtyard with doubts in his heart, and as soon as he returned to the west courtyard, he talked to Geng about it......
On Lu Yiduo's side, as soon as the business was handled, he was called by Mrs. Lu.
When Mrs. Lu saw him walking in from the outside, striding meteors and spring breezes, she couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in her heart.
She really didn't want Lu Chengjie's brother and sister to go back to Henan with him.
She also admits that Yin Pingru is gentle and knowledgeable, but she is always not at ease in her heart.
Especially Lu Chengjie is the eldest grandson of the Lu family, and Lu Yiduo's only son now, Mrs. Lu has high expectations for him, for fear of being delayed by Yin Pingru's carelessness.
As soon as Lu Yiduo sat down, she went straight to the point; "You think it's okay to let Brother Jie and his brother and sister stay in the capital for a while?"
Lu Yiduo smiled softly, as if it was not expected that his mother would have this idea.
"Mother, what's wrong with you? When my son was out alone, he was able to take the three of them to the present. Now that there is another Pingru, how can I trouble you instead! ”
It's because of her that people are not at ease......
Mrs. Lu secretly said in her heart, but she couldn't say that.
"That's not what I mean, it's just that Brother Jie is already six years old, if you want to read the book in the future, you should change to a more knowledgeable Xixi, it's easier to find it in the capital, isn't it?"
"My mother thought of going with her son this time!" Lu Yiduo's face was happy, and then said: "I've been thinking about this for the past few days, and I want to invite a suitable Xixi seat for Brother Jie to go with us." ”
Mrs. Lu secretly wondered in her heart, how could it be so easy to invite a good Xixi? Both knowledgeable and proficient in the eight strands, and often such people have either already achieved fame in the examination, or are still studying hard for the scientific examination. It can be seen that it is not easy to find a suitable Xixi, not to mention asking people to follow them to Henan......
Thinking that Lu Yiduo would have to leave in a few days, Mrs. Lu was relieved: "Then you can find out first, if you can't find a suitable one, just leave Brother Jie and them first!" ”
Lu Yiduo responded happily.
Mrs. Lu felt that she had finally made herself happy this time, and she was secretly happy in her heart.
didn't think that it would take less than two days, so Lu Yizhong found a Mr. Xixi for Lu Yiduo to come back.
