"You also know, my lord is now a close minister of the Son of Heaven, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and now he has been sent to Nanjing to do the main examination of the Tianfu Academy, and the lord is not in good health, he is busy all day long, hey, it makes us sad when I look at it."

The soft voice of the moth came from the hall where the guests were entertained: "If anyone sends a post, the lord will receive it, and at the end of the day, there is no need to do anything." ”

"That's, that's." An old man's voice came, and then an old woman flattered him repeatedly: "Yes, what identity do we have, how dare we see Master Wu." No, I heard Huang Zhou say that she is a relative of the eldest master. Between relatives, it takes a lot of walking around to be intimate. ”

Wu Jiexin said, these two people are probably Huang Dong's parents.

When I looked over, I saw the moth on the chair. There are two men and two women in the house, it is Huang Dong and his parents.

Huang Dong stood behind his father with his head down, and Huang Zhou's beside him timidly pinched the handkerchief, but there was a hint of imperceptible joy in his eyes.

"Relatives should move around more, but there are more relatives in the old man's family. I think back then, when the old man was very sick and down, no one cared about me waiting for me to live or die. Once you become an official, you all run over, those who ask for things ask for things, and those who ask for help ask for help, it's annoying! The little girl next to Moth was very mean and couldn't help but be sarcastic.

Old Madam Huang's face suddenly turned red.

"Shut up." Moth smiled and scolded his personal maid: "Our family is also a high-ranking house, and there are no rules." Speaking of which, our old man's maternal uncle's family is also such a relative of Huang Zhou's family, when my old man used to be in Beijing, he was still in the capital and talked about how his only cousin in this world was doing. She is alone, has she been bullied? ”

Mrs. Huang hurriedly said: "Thank you for your concern, although our Huang family is not as good as the rich family, we are also living a well-off life." The old man treats Huang Zhou as if he is his own daughter, how can he let her suffer a little. ”

Moth deliberately breathed a sigh of relief: "The master came to Nanjing this time to meet his cousin." Knowing that she is doing well, she is naturally happy, and she has nothing to worry about. ”

Wu Jie nodded secretly when he heard it outside, this moth really knows how to speak.

"It's all here. Whatever you do while standing, it's all a family, sit and sit. Wu Jie strode in and motioned for everyone to sit down.

"The old man has seen Master Wu." Huang Dong and the others hurriedly stepped forward, it is said that they are the people, and Wu Jie is the official. When the people see the officials, they are usually to kneel. But Huang Dong's parents are Wu Jie's elders. And Huang Dongyou is Wu Jie's classmate, which makes them how to kneel.

Wu Jie smiled and sat on the chair: "No need to worship, your own family speaks, you don't need to do this"

Huang Dong's family sat on the chair carefully, but they didn't dare to sit down, exposing half of their buttocks.

After making a decision, Wu Jie didn't speak. He took a cup, as if he were observing the big red rooster on the cup.

There was some cold in the room, and the Huang family looked at each other. Huang Dong's father quietly kicked his own family.

Old Madam Huang hurriedly whispered to Huang Zhou: "My son, aren't you thinking about your cousin, how come you are so happy that you can't speak." ”

"Mother...... I ......" Huang Zhoushi looked embarrassed.

Yesterday, I haven't had a simple brother for many years, and the sudden visit gave her a great surprise, and what she didn't expect was even more unexpected. His cousin turned out to be the current champion of the Gong, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, and a nobleman in the capital. Hearing the news, she stayed in the house for a long time, and finally couldn't help crying loudly, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered in her mother-in-law's house in the past few years.

If it is usual. If the family had heard their own cries, they would have spoken ill of each other. But I didn't want to, but my mother-in-law ran over with a smile on her face, carefully soothing, twisting towels, and bringing tea and water. …,

Quite a while. Ai Ai said that the master was back, and he wanted to go to Wu Jie to visit relatives and visit the door.

In fact, what the father-in-law and mother-in-law think, Huang Zhou's heart is very clear. After hearing that Wu Jie had done the big exam, they wanted to go to Wu Jie's door to see if they could make a show for their husband.

The Huang family is also a local gentry, and the reason why they can be respected by others and mix well on the scene is not because they rely on their father-in-law's talent status. But if the father-in-law dies in the future, the husband has no fame, and the family will immediately fall.

Huang Zhou is an honest man, and since his mother-in-law begged to come to the door, he couldn't shirk it. Besides, even if the husband is not in a thousand ways, he is also his own man!

With the family, find Wu Jie here.

Wu Jie saw that Huang Zhou's wanted to speak and stopped, his face was embarrassed, he sympathized in his heart, and said with a smile: "Cousin, they are all family, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Only then did Huang Zhou stumble and said, "Cousin, I heard that you are ...... Yes, yes, yes......"

"Yes" for a long time, but I couldn't say it anyway.

Huang Dong's father was anxious, and when he saw that his daughter-in-law was really a person who couldn't fart in three sentences, he interjected directly and said with a flattering smile: "Master, I heard that you are the main examiner of this academy exam." My son Huang Dong is your brother-in-law and your former classmate, let's see if I can reward him for his talent and fame. ”

Sure enough, he came to talk about this, Wu Jie frowned, and stared at Huang Dong's father deadly: "Are you asking this official to ignore the law of the country and cheat for you, so bold!" ”

"Ah, no, no, no." This is already a very powerful accusation, Huang Dong's father turned pale with fright, and waved his hand again and again.

"Isn't Huang Dong's famous talent, and he guessed the official's test questions in advance, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to win? By the way, isn't it quite good that he wrote a difficult poem yesterday? ”

Hearing Wu Jie mention this, Huang Dong's face turned even redder: "I, what kind of poem am I called, it's purely an axe ...... the class."

Let Wu Jie clear the joints for him, don't even think about it, this matter can't be messed up.

Wu Jie immediately lost interest, stood up, and said to Mozi, "I still have something to do, you accompany your cousin to talk." ”

He brushed his sleeves away.

He came to see the Huang family today, as long as he showed his attitude: Huang Zhou's family is my cousin of Wu Jie, and the dignified Wu Shizhen's sister is not something that anyone can bully.

It is enough to come out and meet the previous one. After a long time, in the evening, Mozi came over, with an excited face: "Master, I have done a big thing for you, how to thank the concubine?" ”

Wu Jie was a little puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

Mozi said proudly: "I asked the Huang family to kick Huang Dong's Aunt Gu out of the house." ”

"Ahh Wu Jie was taken aback, "How can this be, aren't you breaking up other husbands and wives?" ”

This year. The status of the concubines is not high, and they are only a little bit better than the maids, and they are not protected by the law.

In ancient times, marriage was practiced in polyandry, and the husband generally did not care about household matters. And the eldest wife has the power to kill and take away the concubines. When you meet a powerful wife, tossing a concubine is like cleaning up a dog. This is also the reason why Wu Jie has always refused to let Mozi be a concubine, so as not to be wronged in the future.

Originally, now that Wu Jie is supporting Huang Zhou's family, her status in the family is unshakable. But I didn't want to, the moth actually asked the family to directly get rid of Aunt Gu.

"Of course. Aunt Gu is pregnant now, and she has to wait until she gives birth to a child. Moth said: "I talked to the Huang family for a long time just now, and the old lady Huang is also an acquaintance, and said that she would let your cousin be the housekeeper in the future." It's not that my cousin can't have children, was she almost given a break by Huang Dong before, Mrs. Huang said that when Aunt Gu gave birth, she would directly snatch it over and raise it for her cousin. ..., "You! It's really ......," Wu Jie was dumbfounded.

Moth: "Aunt Gu is really hateful. Can't stay in the Huang family. However, the thought of her being driven away would be starved to death. I'm also soft-hearted. Only then did he agree to let the Huang family buy another house for Aunt Gu outside, but she was not allowed to enter the Huang family's house for life. ”

Wu Jie breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay to deal with it like this, it's done well." ”

When Mozi heard Wu Jie's praise, he was even more happy: "Also, the Huang family also agreed, and he will not accept concubines in the future." ”

Wu Jie: "Marry or not, we can't interfere in this matter, and it's too domineering, not good, not good." Don't do that again. It's not good to pass it out. ”

Moth sneered: "Does he Huang Dong dare to talk nonsense outside?" The lord is going to enter the cabinet in the future, but the relatives of the Zaifu family are blessings that others can't cultivate in eight lifetimes, if it's too late to rejoice, dare to complain? ”

Wu Jie smiled and scratched her nose, and immediately asked the kid next to him to prepare the four treasures of the study. I'm going to think about what questions to come up with in the current Academy of Sciences.

Mozi saw that Wu Jie had official business and was about to withdraw, but after thinking about it, he stopped: "Master." ”

"Moth, are you okay?"

There was a trace of sadness on Mozi's face: "The master returned to his hometown this time, and the relatives he should see have also been found." Moth also wants to see his father and brother...... Back then, they sold their concubines to the lord's mansion, although they said...... There is no family affection at home. But it's also a close relative...... If you don't see the previous side, but you have something in your heart......"

Speaking of this, her eyes were red when she had always been strong.

Wu Jie sighed and was silent for a long time: "If you want to see the moth, go and see it." ”

Moth: "Master, the concubine doesn't want to meet her father and brother, just look at it from a distance, and ...... It's satisfied. ”

Wu Jie nodded again and again: "When are you going to go?" ”

"Moth plans to go tomorrow."

Wu Jie: "Tomorrow I want to light up Maqua Street, but I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you." In this way, I will let Lian Laosan go with you. ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." The moth's voice choked, and the tears finally fell.

On the second day, Wu Jie went to the Yamen of the Gongyuan, and today is a good day for the people to parade to let the people see the demeanor of the great master.

Wu Jie sat with the officials for a while, talked for a long time, had lunch, and waited for everything to be ready.

Before that, it was finally time to brighten the streets of Makwa, and as soon as I got on the horse and walked a mile, I saw a great chaos ahead.

Looking up, I saw Lian Lao San holding Qiang'er and running over with a panicked face: "Big master, big boss, old slave should die!" Then the tears flowed.

Wu Jie hurriedly asked people to call him in front of him, and lowered his body: "Lao Lian, what kind of occasion is this, you can't mess around, what is the matter, whisper." ”

Even the third old man burst into tears: "Master, like Mrs. She...... Sister Moth, she ......"

"What's wrong with her......" Wu Jie's heart sank, and he had an ominous premonition. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation and monthly passes, and your support is my biggest motivation. )
