Yang Lan is going to start the council in the afternoon, and by the way, Zhuqing's dowry will be sorted out a little bit in advance, and she has a good impression of this two sisters, so she will get it early, try to buy more practical and beautiful things, and help them more in the future.

Zhuqing has no brothers, so she can only rely on Rong Yi to support her, so Yang Lan will be so generous and give 10,000 taels of silver, in order to stretch out more hands when she needs it, and in the future, she will count on her man to have the ability to not forget the love here, and the connections must be accumulated at any time, and she can only help when she uses it.

Zhu Qing began to prepare for the family affair, Yun Qing also began to talk about the family, and was quietly asking, after finishing the family affairs of the two sisters-in-law, there was nothing to do with Yang Lan, as for the relatives who seemed to be relatives, she really didn't need to worry about it, and her own mother-in-law looked at each other and prepared.

Because he wanted to say a civil official to Yunqing, Rong Yi was also quietly exploring the right people outside, asking for a low profile, in the end, Yunqing was a concubine, some people still care about this, and it is not so easy to find a good son with sincerity, although Yunqing has an elder brother, he has not yet entered the office, and he has no connections.

Qingya walked in and replied, "Grandma, the third master is here, waiting in the yard, saying that he wants to see you, and he has something to ask you." ”

Yang Lan raised her head a little surprised, "See me?" It's not a mistake, do you want to see the second master? ”

Qingya shook her head and said with certainty: "What the third master said is to see grandma." ”

Yang Lan nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "You let him wait in the small hall outside, and serve good tea." ”

"Yes." Qingya was ordered to retreat.

Yang Lan entered the back room, and Rong Yi had already woken up. Sit up. Brother Yu also woke up. didn't cry or make trouble, waited for the big round eyes to look left and right, and saw Yang Lan stretching out his hand to hug him.

Yang Lan smiled and hugged her son in her arms, Rong Yi frowned and said, "Don't always hug it when you leave, it's not good for boys to be spoiled." ”

Yang Lan nodded helplessly, looking at her son to discuss, "Your third uncle is here, let's go over together, okay?" Our brother Yu is an adult. Do you want to lead your mother over to see the guest? ”

Brother Yu seemed to be really thinking about it, rubbed his eyes with his white fat little hands, and nodded solemnly, "Okay." ”

"I said he should have come over." Rong Yi put on his homely robe and smiled.

"Did he come here for Yunqing's business? No, there should be more, he knows that I have a good relationship with Yunqing, and I won't ignore her, it should be for the future, right? Yang Lan pondered it carefully, and felt that the uncle had another purpose for coming over this time.

Rong Yi turned his head and said with a smile: "It's still my daughter-in-law who is smart and sees thoroughly, he is not very good at reading, he only took the exam last year, but his ranking is not very good." I guess the teacher said something, and he wanted to come to me to get an idea. ”

Yang Lan nodded appreciatively. "This is a smart and sensible child, knowing that he is weak, he knows how to find the right person for help, and he will not blindly care about face, well, I am very curious about their brother and sister's aunt, this must be a very smart woman."

Yunqing's brother and sister seem to be inconspicuous in the Hou Mansion, but they didn't let themselves be wronged, and they also won the eyes of their mother's father, never causing trouble, not chewing their tongues, being sensible and understanding the rules, and it is a matter of time before the grandmother likes to be good, some things are not for a moment, but for a long time to live well is really good.

"His aunt is a woman from a good family, she was found by her mother's family, the family was poor and suffered, only two of them were left with their sister and brother, and they couldn't live, so they asked relatives to send them into the house to be small, in order to support his younger brother, this is not his brother relying on the name of the house to do business, has always been good, so Aunt Yunqing is not short of money, but she has never shown off, and every stitch and thread is reserved for the two Yunqing brothers and sisters." Rong Yi explained.

Yang Lan sighed, "There are always a lot of people who are not easy in this world. ”

Naturally, he despises the concubine who clings to the powerful and is willing to fall, but it has to be another matter if he is forced to do so, people always have to live, everyone has their own suffering, and they can't be poured for outsiders.

"Let's go over and have a look, and my son is walking." Rong Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to Brother Yu.

Now Rong Yi has paid a lot of attention to Brother Yu's upbringing, and always tries to get along with his son in the same way as adults, and instills a lot of things into it bit by bit, such as eating, Brother Yu has already started to eat by himself, Rong Yi specially made a small table to circle him, and let him sit at the table to eat alone, although it was all over the floor every time, Rong Yi still insisted on doing so.

also tried to correct Brother Yu's body posture and tell him how to be a man, Yang Lan often felt that his head was full of black lines, and he could understand how a man was talking to a child who was more than a year old? But Rong Yi insisted on this, and Yang Lan couldn't help it.

Brother Yu really kicked his legs out of Yang Lan's arms, walked to Rong Yi's side step by step, and gave him his little hand, his body was straight, his neck was slightly raised, and his steps were a little shaky, but he tried hard to follow his father's steps.

Yang Lan looked very funny, tidied up her clothes, and went with her.

When he came to the small hall, Rong Li was already drinking tea, and when he saw Rong Yi and Brother Yu, he greeted him with a smile, "Second brother, Brother Yu is here, see what Uncle has to play with you." Without saying a word, he brought a small baggage with him, and there was a jade delicate ball, and there was a small jade ball in it, which made a sound when it turned.

Brother Yu's attention was really drawn, and his big eyes flashed with joy, but Rong Yi squeezed his hand, didn't speak, just glanced at him.

Brother Yu immediately opened his mouth, "Third Uncle Xie Lu, Brother Yu likes it very much." Then he let go of his father's hand and staggered to get something.

Rong Li saw that Brother Yu was so polite, so he happily picked him up and sat in his arms and let him play with toys, "Like it or not, it's okay for the third uncle to give you another toy when you go back, you kiss the third uncle." ”

With the bribe of the toy, Brother Yu was very talkative, kissed him hard, and smiled at him.

"My sister-in-law is here."

Yang Lan also came in, naturally saw the things in Brother Yu's hand, and didn't say anything polite, "Rong Li is here, don't buy him toys every time, you're crazy." ”

"Hey, hey! When I saw these little things, I couldn't help but buy a few things for Brother Yu, who made Brother Yu so popular. Rong Li smiled and talked to Yang Lan.

"I heard your brother talk about you, if it's for Yunqing, you don't have to worry, I have a good relationship with Yunqing, no matter what, I have to tell her about a good family, this matter will be in a hurry for a while, you have to look at your character more." Yang Lan got straight to the point and spoke first.

Rong Li smiled and nodded, his eyes were full of trust, "I know that my sister-in-law will definitely not forget about Yunqing, in fact, I came for my business, the teacher said that I may not be too good in the ranking, but I am a little unwilling, I think it is good to be able to take the Jinshi exam, but they said that it is okay to donate officials, but I don't know much about what is important in this, and I want to ask my brother and sister-in-law." ”

Yang Lan glanced at Rong Yi and saw that he didn't mean to speak, this was to let him answer, thought about it and said, "Then do you want to take the test yourself?" If you still want to take the test, we will support you, there is another way to say it; If you think that donating officials is faster, it's not impossible, but you know that donors are not as good as being admitted after all, and you will be rubbed by some white eyes in the early stage, and you can't get out without some big results. ”

Rong Li nodded very agreeably, "I still want to take the exam myself, but the master in the school said that I am afraid that I can't teach me more things, plus he is also old, and he is a little powerless for us older children who are preparing for the exam, I don't have a job in my heart, so I want to come to ......." ”

He didn't know what to do, he wanted to continue the test, but the master didn't give it, it was not easy to find a good master, so he had to ask for gifts, and he had to have some connections and face.

Yang Lan understood this time, this is to say that the master in the school is old, I'm afraid it won't work, it seems that this is a big problem.

She didn't agree immediately, but pondered for a moment before saying, "That being the case, I understand, you go back to study first, and your brother and I are thinking about it to see if we can find another gentleman to come back to teach you, or give you a place to go to the student prison." ”

Rong Li's eyes lit up for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal, nodded, kissed Brother Yu, and said goodbye to Yang Lan Rongyi and left.

Yang Lan turned her head and asked, "Do you know the Dao of Clanology?" The master is old, why don't you mention it to your father? "This is delaying the children's exams, how can they get it, it only comes back once in three years, and if they miss it, they have to wait for three years.

Rong Yi smiled mysteriously, "It's not appropriate for me to say this, I am young in the clan, and it is useless to say it, but it will be different if you go, it is common sense that you are the county lord and care about the clan, if you can invite a good master to teach the clan, the patriarch will definitely be happy." ”

After Yang Lan was silent for a while, she felt that this matter was not too difficult for her, "I'm afraid that there are some inappropriate rules in that clan study, do you want to take this opportunity to change it?" ”

Rong Yi took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Change must be changed, but not for us to speak, but for the master to ask, when the time comes, we will be working together with all our might, in order to succeed, the connections in the clan are also very important to me, there must be a big difference between the power of the clan and the power of one person, you will be a clan woman in the future, you need to take up this piece early, at least you have a good reputation in the clan, you did very well last year, and you got a lot of praise, even your father said that you are doing things in a big way."

During the Chinese New Year last year, Yang Lan prepared everyone's gifts in advance, including the old and young in the clan, according to the different situations of individual families, Yang Lan made a careful analysis, this gift should be intimate and appropriate, and it can also make people feel warm, not a slap in the face and humiliation, she didn't put a lot of thought into it at that time.

There are children who send a set of four books and five classics, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, poor families send some rice, flour, oil and grain, and some elderly people send some symptomatic medicinal materials, which are intimate and affordable; Anyway, there is no shortage of these small money, just to leave a good fate for the children in the distance.
