The capital is four or five thousand miles away from Fujian, if you look at the famous rivers and mountains along the way, and then stay in the rich and prosperous city, plus some places must be detoured, this time there are six or seven thousand miles, for no trains, planes or even cars, the road can only be taken by boat, or by horse-drawn carriage is actually not wide and flat official road, let alone a twelve-year-old boy, even a young man in his twenties and thirties, can not withstand the toss of the road.

Shen Xi got the opportunity to go to Taixue to study, and he could prepare for the exam while studying and going to school, which was a rare opportunity to advance, even if he didn't get into the Jinshi in the end, he could become a teacher and student or a classmate with those celebrities and Confucians.

If you have good grades, you can stay in the country to teach, and your grades will almost be assigned to the local government school and county school to become a teacher, and become a real scholar class.

Although entering Taixue does not mean that you can be admitted to the Jinshi to be an official, but how to say it is much stronger than an ordinary lifting person, after entering the Hongzhi year, a lifting person wants to wait at home without a relationship and a way, and there will be no result when the sky is old, and there is a more hidden benefit of entering Taixue, that is, you can make friends with the officials and magnates, which will help you to enter the Shi in the future.

Although Su Tong also met the criteria for entering Taixue under the age of 25, it was a pity that he did not rank among the top in the township examination, and he was not appreciated by Su Kui in Fujian, so he entered the Beijing Normal School simply to prepare for the exam.

The session of the 12th year of Hongzhi can be said to be very lively, Tang Bohu, Xu Jing, Lun Wenxu, and Liu Xiankai ...... In the end, it ended in a fraud case, and the talented man who made a difference could only send his love to the landscape.

Among this class of Jinshi, there is one person who has to mention that he is only the seventh Jinshi in the second class, but his future attainments are amazingly high, this person is Wang Yangming, a master of the Ming Dynasty. At this time, Wang Yangming's fame was not very good, and he was an ordinary lifter who tried to fall twice.

In the autumn of this year, Tang Bohu had just been released from the Yuan Dynasty and had a prominent reputation in Jiangnan, and it was when he was proud of the spring breeze, he definitely did not expect that the next year's Spring Festival would end miserably by being involved in a fraud case.

The Shen family and the Lu family. For Shen Xi to go to the capital, there was a hint of sadness in the support, but they knew that this was related to Shen Xi's good future, and they couldn't delay. Even if he endures the pain of separation, he must send Shen Xi to Taixue.

“…… It's good to go with Su Gongzi, Su Gongzi is also a juren, and the two of them go to Beijing, and there is a companion on the way, not to mention that they can also study together. When I arrived in the capital, someone took care of it. It's just that I went this year ago, which is really reluctant. ”

Although Hui Niang has no blood relationship with Shen Xi, but after getting along with each other over the years, she has long regarded each other as a family, Shen Xi went to Fuzhou to participate in the township test for three months, and it has not been a few days since she came back. I may not be able to come back once a year, after all, the journey from Beijing to Fujian is too long.

Zhou asked, "Why don't you let your father send you there?" ”

Shen Xi shook his head: "Mother, Jingshi and Fujian are thousands of miles apart, and it will take at least three or four months for my father to come back, do you really bear that my father and I are not by your side?" ”

Zhou was dumbfounded for a while, and after thinking about it carefully, yes, his son is going to study far away. The mother's heart is worried, but even her husband goes with her, and she worries about it at home for a few months, isn't that even more uncomfortable? After a while, she sighed softly: "I can't bear to let your father send you." Otherwise, how can you be at ease as a mother? ”

Shen Xi said with a smile: "Mother, I have grown up, this time I will go to Jingshi, I am ready, I will take the Jinshi exam next year and come back, so that I don't have to waste a few years in Taixue." Won't I be able to come back and be reunited with my family? ”

Zhou scolded with a smile: "Phew, you foolish baby knows wishful thinking, do you know how to write the word jinshi?" Besides, if you really get into the Jinshi, then you want to be a great official, what will you do when you come back? When the time comes, your father and I will go to the capital to find you and live a good life with you. ”

Hui Niang smiled: "Sister, don't say it, it's my sister's gluttony...... I don't know whether to look forward to Xiaolang being a jinshi or not being a jinshi, if he becomes a big official, will it be possible that the fate of our two families will be over? ”

"Where is there something, he has a chance, and the good of others can not be remembered, you, who are aunts, are like half a mother these years, where can he not be filial?"

Hui Niang thoughtfully: "It's a pity that our Chamber of Commerce doesn't have a foothold in Beijing......"

In other words, Hui Niang still wants to do what she can, Shen Xi went to Fuzhou to take the township test, she can still help some, but when she arrives at the foot of the Son of Heaven, she can't reach it.

……

……

The departure date is set for mid-October.

Because Taixue is open after the New Year, Taixue students and Guozijian students from all over the country have to arrive at the two locations of Guozijian in Daming at the beginning of the year, Nanjing and Jingshi, and their hometowns are close to each other, and they can spend the New Year at home before leaving, but Shenxi cannot.

During the Hongzhi period, there was no Taixue in the Nanjing Guozi Prison, and the Taixue he was going to enroll in was far away in the capital, and if he couldn't leave two months in advance, he might not be able to arrive at the beginning of the year. After I went, I had to settle down, visit some Fujian and Guangdong celebrities in Beijing, and get close, and it would take some time.

In this way, it is not too early to leave in mid-October.

And Su Tong these days, not only is he busy packing up at home, but he is also busy "taking concubines", and he has taken two back at a time. said that he wanted to take advantage of the time before leaving, to spread the branches for the Su family.

In these years, there is a saying that Gao Tang is not far away.

Elder Su Tong passed away early, and the Su family was already in charge of the family, although he went to Beijing this time, although he was just going to take the exam, but it was not a reassuring thing to go far away this year. He now has only one eldest son, still in infancy, and if he goes out and has any accidents, his wife and concubine will not be able to keep the family business, and will inevitably be stolen by his fellow clansmen.

Therefore, Su Tong was extremely cautious on the issue of heirs, since the wives and concubines in the family could not give him a few more, he would take two more concubines back.

The Su family originally had a lot of money, a large number of real estate and land, as well as tea gardens, and now he was raising people in high school, he wanted to take concubines, not to mention the yellow flower girls of small families, even those rich families with relatively rich families were willing to send their daughters over, and it was not an insult to be a concubine for the master.

In fact, on the Shen family's side, there are more people who come to ask.

Shen Xi has already married Xie Yun'er, but the age does not match, and on the day of Shen Xi's wedding, some people laughed that he married a mother and came back.

If Shen Xi is just a showman, no one is willing to send his daughter over to be a concubine, but now it is different, Shen Xi is not only a lifter, but also Xie Yuan, and will soon go to Taixue to study. In the land of the capital, after a few years, even if you don't get into the jinshi, you are surrounded by the children of official eunuchs. When Shen Xi takes root in the capital, won't his daughter be able to follow him to the capital to enjoy happiness?

The matchmaker broke through the threshold again, and she knew that Shen Xi was in a hurry to enter Beijing and enter Taixue, and she was also preparing for the exam, and the time was in a hurry. Each family wants to marry their daughter as soon as possible, if Shen Xi is a jinshi again in the coming year, even if you send your daughter to the Shen family as a maid, it is not uncommon.

“…… Shen Xiaoguan will definitely enter high school next year, don't you also enjoy the blessings, madam? There is only one wife in this family, how long do you want to stay in the house full of children and grandchildren? These girls' families all want to look good, and they want a dowry...... The ass is good to give birth to, three years to hold two, five years to hold a couple. ”

The matchmaker's words are the same. Not only Zhou, but even Shen Xi was tired of listening to it. Every time Zhou heard this, he pouted and smiled: "Forget it, our baby doesn't have such a blessing, how old is he?" Just understand this, just have a wife. If he is addicted to this, what will he do in the future? ”

It is useless for matchmakers to talk badly, and in the end, these matchmakers can only go away in a huff, but they are muttering in their hearts.

In the past, Shen Xi had just passed the county test, and a bunch of people came to match. was pushed out of the door, and later Shen Xide's mansion tried the head of the case, Zhong Xiucai, and there were more people who came to the matchmaker, but the Shen family was still not satisfied. As a result, she married an "old woman" who was almost a year older and came back to be her daughter-in-law, or maybe the Shen family just wanted to find an older woman to take care of Xiao Xiucai's daily life?

Now, it is someone's yellow flower girl who comes to be a concubine with a dowry, what a good opportunity, you are stunned to push it. Isn't this Shen family lacking heart?

You lack heart, don't affect your aunt and grandmother to make money, when I first took over the business, I patted my chest and told the woman's family that things would be done, but now even the tea money has to be lost, who will talk to me about the matchmaker in the future?

In the past few days before Shen Xi left, Zhou's received twenty or thirty matchmakers alone, which annoyed her. In the past, if she was not satisfied, let alone scolding, she might even take out a broom to drive people away, but now she has learned moderation, after all, she is the mother of Xie Yuangong...... Even if I'm not happy, I have to smile and see what you can do to me!

In the end, Hui Niang proposed: "...... Xiaolang will leave in a few days, it will take at least two or three years to go, why don't you do it with Dai'er in advance? ”

"Dale?"

Zhou thought about it, and then remembered that the little girl he picked up on the road six years ago, all these years as a daughter, all these years as a daughter, it hurts, scolded and scolded, beat and beaten, said that it was to let her be a daughter-in-law, but now let Shen Xi marry Xie Yun'er into the door, and now she can only be a concubine if she enters the door, isn't it a disadvantage to treat this little girl?

Hui Niang smiled: "Looking at my sister's hesitant appearance, why don't we ask Dai'er what she means." ”

"Ask her? A little girl, what do you know? Zhou shook his head slightly.

Hui Niang said: "Dai'er is fifteen years old in the end, she has her own ideas, if she feels wronged and doesn't want to be a concubine for Xiaolang, don't be reluctant to sister, find a good family for her to marry in the future...... Alas, Yun'er doesn't know how long she can stay in the Shen family, if Yun'er is gone, and even Dai'er is married, how sad should Xiaolang be? I watched these two children grow up, and I thought they were a couple. ”

Zhou suddenly laughed, looked at Hui Niang, and asked mysteriously, "But sister, where is your Xi'er?" I think Xi'er is also a very good girl, on weekdays, Brother Shen Xi is always long, and Brother Shen Xi is short. ”

Hui Niang's face turned red and she said, "Phew, my sister is talking nonsense for no reason, where is Xiaoya worthy of Xiaolang?" Besides, she is only a few years old, where does she know what love is, she just treats Xiaolang as a brother. ”

The two sisters have long been in the same spirit, even if Zhou's is spicy and Hui Niang is strong, but after getting along over the years, let alone quarreling, there is not even a small contradiction, because what they know best is gratitude and mutual understanding.

The two sisters laughed for a while, but they still called Lin Dai over and asked Lin Dai what she meant.

"Dai'er, you have been in my Shen family for some years, and you were originally asked to be a daughter-in-law to Hanwa'er, who knew that so many things happened later, but it was your sister of the Xie family who entered the door first, and she may not know when she will leave the house in the future, if you are willing, you will marry in as a concubine, and you will be corrected in the future? Or do you want to continue to get along with Han Wa'er now, and when the Xie family's sister leaves in the future, you will get started? ”

Rao is Lin Dai has a lot of ideas on weekdays, and she doesn't know how to answer at this time. With her age, it is indeed difficult for her to choose between such a tangled dilemma.
