In the afternoon, I finally heard the movement of people running outside the yard. Jin and Wen Chunyi both stood up, but both of them couldn't take a step. The little guy next to Wen Xiuyu happily ran into the courtyard door and shouted, "I'm hit." He ran to the main room, stretched out his hand and tapped the door, and without waiting for a response from the room, he had already reported the good news at the door and said, "Madam, Miss, Daxi, the young master is the twentieth in the examination." ”

Jin was stunned for joy, Wen Chunyi grabbed the reward bag that had been prepared, opened the door and said to the little girl: "Call all the people in the courtyard to come over, and everyone in the master and wife will be rewarded." She directly stuffed a happy bag to the little maid, and the little maid happily took it and thanked her, saying, "Madam, Miss, I'll go to the young master's side and wait." The little servant stood in the courtyard and shouted, "There is joy in the four rooms, and the old lady has a reward." When he had finished his call, he ran out of the courtyard door cheerfully. There was an uproar in the courtyard of the fourth room, and everyone came to the main room, and Jin smiled and instructed Wen Chunyi to say, "Everyone has a reward." ”

In the evening, the old lady Wen sent a small servant to say that Wen Chaoqing's father and son were dining in the courtyard. Hearing the old lady's kindness and thoughtfulness, this is the first time for the fourth room. In the past, when I heard that the old lady kept people for dinner, she couldn't wait for anyone to come back in the fourth room, so she secretly sent someone to inquire about the news. Jin and Wen Chunyi happily finished the meal, and Jin moved out the sewing basket that had been idle for most of the day, and instructed Wen Chunyi to divide the line, she wanted to be a rising line. Jin is obviously much faster, and in Wen Chunyi's admiration, she smiled and said: "Your brother is going to go to the official career, and in recent years, the family has to stick some silver to him."

Your brother's family affairs probably don't need to worry too much, but in terms of money, you can't make him too embarrassed. Your uncle said. The most difficult time to travel is at the lowest and highest places. Your aunt said that a woman is a child and is courageous, and a man is rich and courageous. I think both of them are very right. Wen Chunyi is actually a person who has never understood these aspects, and she is a little interested in listening to Jin's eloquent talk. Seeing that Chunyi was willing to listen to her say these things, Jin became even more interested, and said with a smile: "I was worried that you were too pure and business-minded to be contaminated with dust. ”

Wen Chunyi listened to her. Funny and said, "Mother." I want to eat and drink, and I may be a noble person. Again, you didn't tell me these things before. I can't be ashamed of you. Come and ask about a man's future. Kim raised his eyes from the job in his hand. looked at Wen Chunyi and said: "Tell me about the sisters of Yifu, who is like you, and treats the sisters with a light affection." Kim put his head down again. After Wen Chunyi divided the thread in his hand, he said with a smile: "Mother, sisters of Yifu, how many people really think of me as sisters?" Mother, I'm not young, I can live happily for a day, you can let me live one more day like this. ”

Jin sighed softly, Wen Chunyi treats people like this, it's not bad, at least everyone is okay on the face. Kim whispered: "It's just that you don't have much interaction with people, and when others misunderstand you, no one will justify you." Wen Chunyi listened to Jin's words, chuckled and said, "Mother, most of the people who come and go in our house are relatives in each room. I associate with them, no matter how deep my friendship is, it can't match other people's blood relatives. What's more, they are all young ladies who have been pampered and raised in the family, who have no little temperament of their own. Why should I grieve myself, bow my head and set up a relationship with them for an unreal friendship? ”

The friendship of the girl in the boudoir is often like a flower in the water, and as soon as the waves come, they dissipate. Wen Chunyi felt that she was a long-term lover, she didn't want to pay the wrong affection, since it was all about to be mistreated, it was better to never really start, and she would not have a feeling of self-owe in her heart. Jin raised her eyes to see her daughter's calm expression, and she whispered, "When I was in my mother's house, I didn't have any good friends. People like me who are concubines are all people of the same status. It's just that people like us have to look at the eyes of our sisters, and we have the opportunity to have deep friendships with people. ”

Wen Chaoqing and Jin are both people who can calmly face their own backgrounds, Wen Chunyi feels that the two parents are quite good in nature, no wonder the children born are also quite good. Wen Chunyi likes to have such a pair of parents, and their expectations for their children have never been too demanding. Kim whispered, "Have you ever heard about your sister-in-law's sister next to her mother's house?" Wen Chunyi immediately understood what the Jin family meant, and Wen Da Shao's grandmother's proper behavior is to make people have a better impression of her maiden sister. Wen Chunyi laughed and said, "Mother, if there is a suitable person, my sister-in-law will definitely hint at it." ”

In the four rooms, many women walked. By Jin's side, he hadn't seen the little girl serve for many years, and when Wen Xiuyu returned from a study tour outside, Jin seemed to forget that he wanted to help him prepare a clever girl in the room. Now she is only thinking about finding a suitable eldest son and daughter-in-law, and Wen Xiuyu treats the girls in the various rooms in the house, and after meeting, someone greets him, and he has always been polite and distant. The children of Wenfu, before getting married, will not indulge themselves in terms of women. Even if it is a gentleman in the second room, after getting married, there is a concubine in the room, and he has much more control in terms of female sex than the previous generation.

Jin recovered from the joy of his son's tried, and began to care about his son's lifelong affairs. She smiled and said to Wen Chunyi: "I like the way your aunt treats your sister-in-law, as long as your brother's daughter-in-law is a sensible person, I treat her as a daughter." Kim is turning a corner to explain that she will not interfere in the affairs of her son's room. Wen Chunyi looked at her with a smile and said, "Mother, then let's see who is the blessed person who can marry in and be a daughter-in-law for her mother." Jin laughed, thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid that from tomorrow onwards, I will be busy with your brother's affairs." You reminded me that tomorrow I was going to talk to your aunt. ”

Wen Chunyi nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, tomorrow I will accompany my mother to the big house, and I will also ask my sister-in-law by the way, does my mother's family have a suitable sister?" Jin smiled and nodded, remembering Wen Xueyi again, she whispered: "Early tomorrow morning, I will ask Jun'er to take a look at your sister, her body is heavy, tell her not to come back to say goodbye." You took the little clothes you made for the good Bao sisters and brothers last time, and brought a piece for Jun'er to send over. Wen Chunyi smiled, at such a time, the Jin family can still put some heart on the daughter who marries out, Wen Chunyi looked at the Jin family's heart warm, she will not do anything to sell her children for profit.

Wenfu gradually became lively, and there were more strangers coming and going. The summer banquet was held soon. The house invited a few more families to be guests, and the Jin family got up early in the morning, deliberately dressed up carefully, and pulled Wen Xiuyu to look up and down, left and right carefully. The people in the first room giggled and laughed, and Wen Xiujun and Wen Xiujie followed closely around Wen Xiuyu to look at them. Wen Xiuyu blushed with shame, and it was not easy to reprimand the two younger brothers with a straight face, so she could only call in a low voice: "Mother, it's just that there are more guests, you don't have to be so nervous." ”

Wen Chunyi looked at Wen Chaoqing and Jin's expressions from the side, and both husband and wife looked a little nervous. Wen Chunyi pulled the Jin family and reminded: "Mother, you let your father go over to greet your grandfather first." We're going to say hello to my grandmother too. "Wen Xiuyu has come out, but the Jin family and Wen Chunyi can't mess up their proportions. Old Madam Wen and Second Mrs. Wen have carefully looked at the words and deeds of Jin and Wen Chunyi, but the mother and daughter are still acting as before, and when it comes to the day of greeting, they will go with everyone, and they will never come to Mrs. Wen alone to provoke people.

Wen Chaoqing's father and son left in front, Jin took a look at his own clothes again, and by the way, he looked at Wen Chunyi's clothes, and said, "Xueduo, your head is quieter." Wen Chunyi hurriedly stretched out her hand to protect her head, she used a pair of jade and green flowers on her head more than usual, she was at such an age, with such a look, she couldn't stand the magnificent dress. Jin looked at Wen Chunyi's colorful skirt again, on the clothes, she couldn't pick anything, Wen Chunyi also likes to dress in color and joy on weekdays. It's just that no matter how Wen Chunyi dresses with joy, it can make her little face extremely cold.

Jin looked at her daughter and sighed softly in her heart, a woman who laughed like a flower, but in front of people, she rarely had a smiling face to greet people, most of the time, she was smiling slightly towards people. Wen Chunyi tugged at the Jin family, and the Jin family was entangled, but he was afraid that it would be too late to go to Mrs. Wen's place. Jin and Wen Chunyi rushed to the gate of Mrs. Wen's courtyard and waited for Mrs. Wen Wu and Wen Tingyi's mother and daughter. The four of them entered the courtyard gate of Mrs. Wen together, and were welcomed into the main room by the housekeeper and the woman. Mrs. Wen was full of joy on her face, and the three grandsons of the family were on the list of scientific examinations, which was an extremely face-revealing happy event.

Old Mrs. Wen had a rare smile on Jin's face, and when she praised Mrs. Wen's good teaching, she also praised Jin's by the way. Jin had a frightened look on his face and refused, saying: "The daughter-in-law doesn't dare to take credit, because the father and mother teach well." Mrs. Wen Wu praised and said with a smile on the side: "Mother, I also think that you and your father are good at teaching people, and they teach all children and grandchildren to be filial. "Mrs. Wen followed the old lady Wen on the side, and the house was so peaceful. Mrs. Wen was even happier by the kind words of her daughters-in-law, and she said with a smile: "The children of Wenfu, no matter what time it is, they can't forget the foundation of the scholarly family. ”

Hearing the old lady's laughter, the wrinkles also bloomed, and her complexion was much better. The guests have never arrived so early, Grandma Wen took the ladies out to arrange first, Mrs. Wen stayed to talk to Mrs. Wen, and Wen Tingyi and Wen Chunyi stayed together. Wen Tingyi secretly looked at Wen Chunyi's expression, in front of Mrs. Wen, she, the concubine of her sister-in-law, had more face than Wen Chunyi. Wen Chunyi waited behind the Jin family with a faint expression, listening to Mrs. Wen talking about the old things in the past, talking about the things that were going to happen when she was a daughter in her mother's family, looking forward to the brothers passing the scientific examination.
