Chapter 60: The Young Eagle Spreads Its Wings in the Imperial Examination (Asks for Recommendation Votes)
Autumn comes and winter ends, spring sends summer, and in a blink of an eye it is May of the following year.
Just after the Taoist idiot exerted his strength to breastfeed, he finally successfully passed the county examination and the government examination and became a child. As for the college examination, due to the two examinations in three years, I will not be able to participate in it until next year.
did not make a splash, and in the county school exam, the results of the idiot were quite excellent, ranking ninth; The government examination is ranked thirty-sixth.
The next year's hospital exam, it is also the luck of the idiot, otherwise with his current results, he will have to taste the taste of being the first.
For this result, it is also expected. Even if the memory of the idiot is good, he has only been practicing for a year for the most important eight-strand article in the children's exam, and it is inevitable that the articles will be stiff and obscure.
Among his classmates in the school, Lu Wenzhao did not participate in the children's examination because of his family discipline; Wang Qi passed the county test and stopped the government test; Liu Congyun took the exam with the idiot, but his results were much better than the idiot, and he was ranked in the top ten in the government exam.
The most dazzling is Wang Sanlang.
The twelve-year-old head of the case, and it is also the county test and the government test.
Now that the Wang clan mentions Wang Sanlang, they all agree with two sentences, and the matchmaker almost has to step through the gate of the Wang family. Shen, Liu, and Lu, who have the four surnames of An Lu, all make people say that they have the intention of calling sons-in-law. In the end, it was the twelfth room that revealed the rumors, and when it came to Wang Sanlang's family, it was "kissing and kissing", the girls on the Yang family's mother's side, those families stopped.
Although the "Da Ming Law" explicitly prohibits the marriage of Chinese cousins, this is an era when personal affection is more important than legal principles. Even if some people are really uninteresting and go to sue whose family to marry with whose family, the yamen will not be so boring to entangle the "Da Ming Law" and sentence the husband and wife to be reasonable.
The married woman marries her daughter back to her parents' family, which is called "returning blood and bones to the family", which is somewhat taboo; But it is the norm in the world for a married woman to choose a daughter-in-law from her niece, which is "aunt as mother-in-law".
People who feel sorry for their daughters are reluctant to marry their daughters to other people's families to endure hardships, and most of them are looking for in-laws in their own aunts and grandmothers who are married.
Don't talk about it from afar, let's just say that Princess Xing's biological mother is Mrs. Wu, and her sister-in-law is Wu, and the two are the aunts and nephews of their relatives. There are also Wang Cui and Xiao Cui in the twelfth room, who are also aunts and nephews.
is also a newly baked child, and the idiot is also very sought-after.
Of course, people with big surnames like Shen, Liu, and Lu will not pay attention to the Taoist idiot, the son of the Wang family, and those who pay attention to the outer nine rooms and want to marry them are all the neighbors before and after, these relatives of the Wang family.
The Taoist idiot had already mentioned to Wang Ning that he would not discuss his relatives before the age of fifteen, and he would talk about his relatives after the fifteen-year-old children's ceremony. Therefore, for those who came to propose marriage, Wang Ning's family politely refused with the name of "the master has calculated, it is not suitable for early marriage".
In October last year, Shun Niang made a ceremony, and Wang Ning made a decision to change his mind and plan to hire his granddaughter outside.
The old lady said to the idiot: "If you are a good man, how many are willing to be sons-in-law?" I was reluctant to marry your sister at first, not only because of the dowry. If it is just for the dowry, it is always possible to sell a few acres of land; What's more important is that she is afraid that she will not be supported after leaving the cabinet and will be bullied in her in-law's house. Now that I have your brother, who will always protect her, what else do I have to worry about. ”
The idiot is still reluctant to marry Shun Niang, after all, he has limited time at home. If Shun Niang marries outside, then there will be only one Wang Ning left in the family. But he can't be selfish for himself, so he blocks Shunniang's karma. Since the old lady was in charge, he didn't say anything more.
When the old lady spread the news of her granddaughter's external employment, people came to the door one after another, but the other party's conditions were not very good. After all, the outer nine rooms are poor and weak, Shun Niang's dowry is limited, and she is the "eldest son of a widow", accounting for one of the "five non-marriages".
The one who wants to ask for her to be a wife is either a merchant family, or a relative of the Wang family, who only looks at the innocent reputation of the outer nine rooms, and the brother who is the companion of the son.
The idiot asked the old lady to be calm and not to be impatient, and then give Shun Niang a kiss after her boy tested.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Zongfang asked someone to take Wang Ning's family and ask for Shunniang for her nephew. Although the Zhang family has declined in recent years, it is not as good as the four surnames An Lu, but it is also a good family.
The other party's name is Zhang Qinghe, born in the Zhang family, three years older than Shun Niang, has achieved the fame of Xiucai, because of the filial piety of his mother, he delayed the discussion of relatives and the township test.
Zhang's father raised his identity, and after his wife died of illness, he gave up the desire to remarry, and only ordered an eldest concubine to take care of the housework temporarily, and he concentrated on teaching his two sons homework.
Zhang Qinghe is the eldest son, and the daughter-in-law has to be a grandmother when she enters the door. On this one, how many families with daughters took the initiative to say goodbye. Zhang's father had no housewife in the family and it was not easy to look at each other, so he entrusted the matter to Mrs. Tai to help each other.
There are two families who take the initiative to propose marriage, both of whom are wealthy families in Anlu, not that the other party's dowry is not rich, nor that the other party is not soft, but one is an only daughter, and the other is a fierce mother.
Zhang Qinghe was worried that he would not be able to take care of his younger brother after entering the door, so he did not nod.
Mrs. Tai originally liked Shunniang's virtuous and capable, but Wang Ning did not mention this matter because he had spoken earlier to summon him.
Now that Wang Ning's family wants to hire his granddaughter outside, Mrs. Tai moved her mind to pull coal to protect fiber, so she mentioned this matter to Zhang's father. Coincidentally, Zhang's father and Wang Qingzhou were still in the same year, and they also had contacts in their early years. Hearing that it was Wang Qingzhou's daughter, Zhang's father nodded yes without waiting to see anyone.
If nothing else, just rely on the chastity archway of the Wang family, and the granddaughter taught by such an old lady must not be wrong.
The old lady asked someone to inquire carefully about the affairs of the Zhang family, and they were the most well-behaved people. Maybe others will think that the Zhang family is rigid, but in the eyes of the old lady, no matter how many rules there are, it is not a big deal, and what I am most afraid of is that there are no rules.
Shun Niang is a child who does her duty, as long as she marries into such a rule-abiding family, she will not suffer.
Looking at Zhang Qinghe equally, because he is the eldest son and eldest brother, he acts in a steady and not pedantic manner, and the old lady is very satisfied. The idiot did not raise any objections to the choice of this sister and wife.
It doesn't matter if you are famous or not, just by virtue of the simplicity of Zhang Qinghe's family, he is a good candidate for marriage.
After the two families saw each other, they made a small decision, and the wedding date was tentatively discussed in October of the following year.
Shun Niang's relatives agreed, and the idiot boy tried so smoothly, Wang Ning was in a good mood, and there were more smiles on his face. No matter how stubborn the old man was, he couldn't bear the pestering of the Taoist idiot, so he finally accepted the gold of the Taoist idiot and began to buy a dowry for Shunniang.
The Taoist idiot asked Wang Zhen to buy 50 acres of Shangtian, planning to make a dowry for Shunniang. At that time, even if the outside world will speculate, it will not be because he will use his biological mother's dowry to supplement Shunniang.
In fact, he didn't move Cui's things.
The mood of the Taoist idiot hangs, it is now the fourteenth year of Zhengde, when will King Ning rebel? I'm tired of waiting.
The old monk has been living in Nanchang for more than half a year, although he has sent back a few letters, it is difficult to write anything credible, and the news is relatively vague. This year, the old monk is 90 years old, and he is still living in a foreign country leisurely, is the old monk not afraid of burying his bones in another country?
The idiot sent a letter to urge him several times, and even almost went to Nanchang at the end of last year.
King Ning rebelled, Xingwang Xu, Zhengde died, the specific time, the idiot was not clear, but he knew that it was the adult age of the son. In this era, the 15-year-old coming-of-age ceremony is a watershed.
The son is thirteen this year.
The atmosphere in the school has become more and more harmonious, and after nearly a year of getting along, everyone's feelings are naturally much deeper than at the beginning.
Although Wang Qi has not become a beautiful young man, most of the fat on his body has been thrown off, and although he still has a round face, he is only slightly richer than ordinary people, and it is much more pleasing to the eye.
Dao idiots finally understood that after entering the palace for so long, why Mrs. Wang had never summoned them, it was because Mrs. Wang was not in good health after the death of the second county lord, and later led to practice, and rarely saw guests, even the mother's family.
However, during the Chinese New Year, when the old lady Wang only asked for peace in the palace, she still met Mrs. Wang and mentioned that she wanted to marry the three county lords for Wang Qi.
Later, Mrs. Wang sent a letter, saying that she had spoken to the princess, and the princess said that she would consider it.
Before Wang Qi took the county exam, the princess summoned him and asked him about his ambitions. I heard that he was just going to try it out and had no intention of doing anything, and the princess's face was a lot ...... gentle;
