For those who live in high temples, only a war with Western Xia and a war with Northern Liao can be regarded as a major event.

And for us ordinary people, the so-called major events are actually nothing more than weddings and funerals. In the eyes of a teenager who is just beginning to fall in love, the biggest thing may be the so-called love.

Although love is such a beautiful thing, it is almost mysterious.

But for Fang Zhongyong, who had just won Xie Yuan, the imperial examination could be put aside for the time being, and the most important thing at the moment was to meet Yan Rongyue's mother, Yan Shu's wife Wang, that is, his future mother-in-law, to determine whether his love was like his previous life was a joke.

Although, as the saying goes, the more the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more pleasing it is. But that's after having become a son-in-law or about to become a son-in-law, and it never includes the first interview. And, as the saying goes, it's like enteritis, and you don't know when it's going to get diarrhea.

The next morning, Fang Zhongyong teased himself a lot, and praised himself in the mirror three times in a row, "You kid is so handsome", before he came to visit Yan Mansion with a gift.

Yan Juhou, who had been waiting for a long time, entered the mansion, and when he arrived at the back hall, he met Yan Shu's wife, Wang.

That Wang is the daughter of Wang Chao, the military envoy of Jiangmen Jianxiong, with a strong personality and military law. Although he is the third successor of Yan Shu (the same as Zeng Gong's family, hehe), he married Yan Shu, a third-hand man who is nearly forty years old, with a twenty-eight beauty, and it really can't be said that he has wronged Yan Dacai.

It is said that when Yan Shu knew about Kaifeng Mansion, he took a fancy to a beautiful woman and accepted her as a concubine. Every time the famous hazy poet Zhang Sanying came to his home as a guest, Yan Shu would definitely call the concubine to show off, and let the concubine sing Zhang Sanying's lyrics.

I don't want to annoy Mrs. with this move, since I have entered the Yan Mansion, I should be careful to keep my duty, how can I show my head and sing those obscene words? The lady was not good at criticizing Yan Shu, so she sold the concubine to others as the hostess.

Although Yan Shu was angry, he was helpless, and wrote a sour poem "Last night the west wind withered the green tree" to commemorate. Wang's strength can be seen.

Of course, although the Wang family is strong, they treat Yan Juhou, Yan Rongyue, Yan Chengyu and others who are not their own. If you do it right, you will be rewarded; If you do something wrong, you will be punished. The so-called rewards and punishments are clear, and the combination of grace and power is to respect the whole house. The most rare thing is that the Wang family raises Yan Rongyue as their own daughter, and they meet all their needs.

Looking at his beautiful, generous, dignified and gentle future wife, Fang Zhongyong was very grateful to his mother-in-law for taking care of her.

Wang was strict with his son, and the other party Zhongyong was very kind: "Zhongyong is going to solve the yuan in high school this time, I don't know what to do?" ”

Fang Zhongyong replied very respectfully: "The late students are going to participate in the Spring Festival. ”

Wang smiled: "Zhongyong has good ambitions!" It's not as stubborn as Juhou, and he doesn't want to make progress. This time I was lucky, and I don't know which god to thank for the blessing. But I don't know how many people in Zhongyong's family have birthdays, but they have been married? ”

The drama bones are coming!

Fang Zhongyong hurriedly explained his situation in detail as if he was being investigated.

Seeing Fang Zhongyong's pug-like gaze, Wang couldn't help but smile secretly, and said, "Zhongyong's mind is already known. I also asked Keiko what she meant, and she also admired her nephew's character and learning. Although the family background of the virtuous nephew is a little cold, my Yan family is originally from a slight cold, and it is not important. A handsome man like a virtuous nephew is really unwanted. Although the eldest daughter married in the rich and rich country, it is not important to his family background.

The two of you are in love, and the old body should have directly agreed to this beautiful thing. But it's always not good. It's all up to my lord. The woman is pitiful, and she has no status at home! ”

Fang Zhongyong pouted secretly, you don't have a status yet, you sold all the concubines of your father-in-law, what else do you want? But he said: "I don't dare to agree with what Mrs. Yan said in her later life. It is said that outside the male protagonist and the female protagonist, it is most appropriate for the lady of the main room to be in charge of everything in the family. Of course, it is reasonable for parents to make joint decisions in marriage. ”

Wang's heart said, you are a little slippery head, but you are very good at talking, you are afraid of angering me, and you want me to make decisions for you, where is there such a cheap thing? It is rumored that I am a and can sell the singer who is beloved by the master, but who knows that she is a secret agent of the Imperial City Division? If you don't find a reason to expel her, can you still stay at home?

Returning to another business in a lost land, Fang Zhongyong couldn't help but laugh at himself a little, and his heart was still anxious.

Think about who Yan Shu's sons-in-law are, and think about which "masters" Yan Shu's protégés are, you should understand that Yan Mansion is not without a threshold, but the threshold is extremely high, but it is just that heroes are not judged by power, or heroes are not judged by current power.

It seems that he just got an admission ticket, and as for wanting to hold the beauty, there is a long way to go! Let's look at the title of someone's gold list!

While he was thinking about it, Uncle Zhong came in.

Fang Zhongyong was in a bad mood, and his tone was not so polite: "Why hasn't Uncle Zhong left with your son-in-law yet?" ”

Uncle Zhong replied: "The villain is about to report to his son. The young master left in a hurry, and ordered the old servant to serve Gongzi for a few more days, and when he came back, he could say goodbye to Gongzi. I don't know what Childe commands? ”

Fang Zhongyong then remembered that he had not yet had time to report the good news to his parents, and he couldn't help hating his unfilial piety, and thought that it would be enough for the future generations to make a phone call.

Busy said: "There is really something that troubles Uncle Zhong." I intend to set off directly from Hongzhou and go to Beijing to participate in the Spring Festival, but I am afraid that I will not be able to go back to my hometown to tell my parents. When Uncle Lao Zhong returned to his hometown, he brought me a letter to his family, so as not to worry about the second elder, and by the way, he reported the good news that I had obtained Xie Yuan to my parents, so that they could be happy. ”

Uncle Zhong said with a smile: "The son doesn't know, this Xie Yuan is to be written by the government, when the official document arrives in Jinxi, there will inevitably be a good person to come to the door to report the good news, and my master will handle it properly, so as not to fall into the face of the son." ”

Fang Zhongyong waved his hand and said, "A cold life, I can't talk about face." Uncle Zhong, you and I have been together for a long time, I think you are very safe, I have the intention to redeem your deed of identity from your master, and return it to my disciples, I don't know if you are willing? ”

Uncle Zhong said: "Actually, the master has already instructed that if the prince does not give up, he will definitely serve the prince as the master." ”

Fang Zhongyong said: "Don't get me wrong. I have no intention of keeping slaves, but the deed will still be returned to you, and your heirs will have a chance to get ahead in the future. It's just that I'm still a poor scholar, I'm afraid that the money is not as rich as Uncle Zhang's for you, so you don't have to blame me. In the future, if I have a fortune, I will not be short of your money. As for Li San and Da Xiong, let them stay! ”

Uncle Zhong quickly changed his role and planned for his new master: "Young Master doesn't need to think about Li San. That Li San was just a nursing home temporarily recruited by the county lord, and I heard that he was a retired soldier, and he even opened a mountain and set up a cabinet. ”

Speaking of this, Uncle Zhong lowered his voice and said, "If the young master has any work that is not easy to come forward, he can be handed over to do it, but he has to deal with it from beginning to end." As for the big bear, it seems to be a fool, but in fact he is quite scheming, and he has received a lot of favors from the young master, and I don't see him say anything, I'm afraid that he is a white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, so it's better to quit! ”

Fang Zhongyong sighed, has the workplace begun to tilt?

Shaking his head, he said: "It is precisely because I see that Big Bear has the potential of a fierce general, that I want to cultivate him." If he really doesn't know what to do, it doesn't hurt to quit. However, now that he has his mother to worry about, it is inevitable that he will be distracted, and it is not good to be too harsh. Let's wait a while! As for Li San, you ask him what he means. I don't want him to do anything deadly, the caretaker is always competent, right? If you wish, you will be treated preferentially. ”

While he was talking, Da Xiong reported that a prince of Wang Anshi had come to visit.

Fang Zhongyong couldn't help but be a little strange, what did Wang Anshi do? When did everyone's friendship become so good?

After inviting in, Wang Anshi leaned on the chair and said very familiarly: "Wenyuan, I don't know how you got into a relationship with Yan Mansion, and you let you live in this quiet place temporarily." It's so much more comfortable than I was in an inn. After the list of the day before yesterday, I was going to look for you to celebrate, and I didn't see you all over the city inns, and today I finally found out that you were here, so I hurried here. ”

Fang Zhong couldn't help but feel ashamed of his stinginess, although Wang Anshi had many problems as an adult, his trust in his friends was often unreserved, and now he was just a child, he should be close to him, and he was still too mean.

Hurriedly became enthusiastic: "It's all under the bottom, isn't it!" I didn't have time to deal with Jiefu a lot, please forgive me! Jiefu visited me this time, is it because his ranking is slightly inferior to mine, and he came to the door? ”

Wang Anshi said with a smile: "Your talent is higher than mine, I have long been convinced, where is there still a short and long idea with you." No, the official document of my father's promotion came down, and he went to Jiangning to be sentenced on the same day, and my mother and my sister will move to Jiangning together. If I hadn't been promoted in this exam, I would have to enroll in Jiangning to study for the next exam.

Oh, that's a long way off. My father asked me to ask you, would you like to go with us, first to Jiangning, and then from Yangzhou to the Grand Canal into Beijing. My father has an official position, and he can live in the imperial court's pavilion, which can save a lot, and his safety is also guaranteed. When the time comes, you and I will go to Beijing together, and then kill all the students without leaving a single piece of armor, wouldn't it be wonderful! ”

Fang Zhongyong couldn't help but think of the somewhat strong Wang Lingwei, and asked, "Is your sister okay?" ”

Wang Anshi laughed: "I knew you would ask, and my sister specially arranged for me to say that I wouldn't tell you!" ”

Fang Zhongyong smiled dumbly, thinking about it, Wang Lingwei was still a little rough and cute, and her appearance was not bad, but the first impression was not good, so he kept a little rejection of her, but I was afraid that it was still the experience of the previous life.

Fang Zhongyong thought for a moment and said, "If you can walk with Jiefu, it will also be a pleasure. It's just that I have already agreed to walk with Zeng Ye and Zeng Gong brothers. If I don't show up, I'm afraid that it will be inappropriate, and I still have some trivial things to deal with, and I am a little too late in time. But Uncle Wang's kindness, Zhongyong still has to express his deep gratitude. ”

Wang Anshi smacked his lips and said: "You also know the relationship between my family and Nanfeng Zeng's family, I really don't know how to call it when I see each other, it's really embarrassing." The people of his family, I am gone. But well, when you pass through Jiangning, you must visit my father and mother at home, especially my sister, so that he will not talk about it all day long. When the time comes, we can also go on the road together. ”

Fang Zhongyong was really convinced by Wang Anshi's fairy tales, what is called "one piece on the road", and corrected: "It's a piece of going to Beijing to catch the exam, don't talk nonsense." I would like to write another letter to my uncle to express my gratitude. ”

Wang Anshi said: "Don't you write a poem to my sister?" My sister often said that it was a waste for your cousin to give your cousin "Magnolia Flower Order with Reduced Words", and specially told me to ask you for a poem that was not inferior to that one. ”

Fang Zhongyong pondered for a long time, and wrote the song "Picking Mulberries":

Peach blossom died ruthlessly, grateful to the east wind, blowing down the delicate red, and flying into the window with chagrin. Who pities the hard west wind and is thin, but also for spring, not as good as hibiscus, a sense of coldness.
