In April, Yin Hui lived up to his expectations and won the first place in the palace examination, won the top prize, and was awarded the editing of the Hanlin Academy. Ah Yu's performance in the palace examination was also good, and he won the top 52. Due to his young age, Ah Yu is ready to continue his studies at the Gils.

After Yin Hui became a big Dengke, followed by Xiao Dengke, on June 9, Yayi got married in a beautiful way. Yin Hui got the beauty as he wished. That's an afterword.

In the mansion of the Marquis of Weiwu, there is a lack of a sister and playmate, and Yaru is very unaccustomed to it for a while. With a bitter little face, my father went to the study to complain.

Guan Hou Ye looked at his little daughter's lost face, and teased her: "My sister is married, you won't be able to play by yourself, how can my father remember, you were very good at entertaining yourself when you were a child, but you won't be able to play when you grow up?"

When Yaru heard this, she immediately put away her lost look, and said with a high spirit: "Yes, who am I, it turns out that I am the one who can play the most." ”

Guan Hou Ye looked at her with a smile. Yaru frowned again: "But Daddy, the things I played with when I was a child can't be played now." My sister is gone. How am I going to spend my time? ”

Guan Hou Ye asked his daughter gently: "Ru'er, just thinking about playing, you should also get married at this time next year, you should embroider the dowry well." You can't just think about it anymore. ”

Yaru made a naughty face at her father: "Dowry, don't worry, there is enough time, and there is also an aunt and sister-in-law to help." I'll just go and please my sister-in-law. ”

Guan Houye scolded her with a smile: "You have a lot of ghost ideas, lazy girl." I think who will you rely on when you get married? ”

Yaru smiled and said, "It's okay, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." ”

During this period of time, there was an endless stream of people proposing relatives in the Shangjun Palace. There is Ah Yu who has been admitted to the Jinshi in the county palace, and there are three girls to be married: the second lady A Ning of the big house, the eldest lady A Ke of the second room and the third lady A Zhu.

Although Linlang is pregnant, fortunately, Linlang is a martial arts practitioner and has no morning sickness reaction. What's more, Ah Ning's father and daughter have already taken over everything in her hands. Therefore, Linlang concentrated on worrying about the marriage for Ah Ning.

First of all, the county king's mansion invited a matchmaker to the ministry Shangshu's house to propose marriage to Ah Yu, and the ministry of etiquette also took a fancy to Ah Yu, so the two families soon made a small decision.

Then, the Cui family came to propose marriage to A-Ning.

When it comes to the Cui family, there is really a lot to say. The ancestral home of the Cui family is Taiyuan, and it is a family that has been inherited for a hundred years. The ancestors of the Cui family have had two princes and masters, two prime ministers, and many people who are officials in the court. In the alternation of imperial power in successive dynasties, the Cui family has always followed the principle: neutrality. Therefore, the Cui family has only been a pure minister for generations and has never been involved in royal disputes. The men of the Cui family can marry royal women, but the daughters of the Cui family are unwilling to marry royal men. So even if the queen fell in love with Cui Ying, the young lady of the Cui family, she could only sigh that Cui Cifu would not allow her granddaughter to marry the prince. Cui Cifu disagreed, the emperor couldn't force his teacher to agree, and the queen had no choice but to choose another concubine for the crown prince.

The Cui family has its own academy in Taiyuan, Shanxi, and the successive mountain chiefs are all from the Cui family. The current emperor's teacher is Cui Mian, the current old lady of the Cui family, that is, Cui Cifu, and now the old man is at home. Now the mountain chief of Taiyuan Academy is Cui Yan, the eldest son of the old lady, don't look at Cui Yan is not an official, but there are many officials in the court who are his students. Cui Liang, the second son of the old lady, is the secretary of the Ministry of Works. The third son made sacrificial wine in the country's prison.

The Cui family attaches great importance to reading, and believes that self-cultivation and family rule the world is the last word. The men of the Cui family are not allowed to take concubines, unless they reach forty and have no children, they are allowed to take a concubine. Therefore, there are almost no disputes between wives and concubines in the Cui family. The Cui family never discriminates against women, and there is a separate classroom for women in the Cui family academy, and the Cui family women can teach in their own academy.

There are many families in the capital who want to marry their daughters to the Cui family. But the Cui family's criteria for selecting daughters-in-law are very strict. The first thing must be a concubine, of course, this has something to do with the fact that the men of the Cui family do not take concubines. The Cui family attaches more importance to appearance and education. It also depends on whether the woman's parents are harmonious. In the Cui family's view, a harmonious family atmosphere is more likely to raise excellent daughters.

Mrs. Cui has taught the current emperor and is the teacher of the current emperor, and King Lingjun has been the emperor's companion, so the old lady is naturally also the teacher of King Lingjun.

As the teacher of King Lingjun, the old lady is still very clear about the past of the old king and the old Wu family. He admired the decisiveness of the old county king, and also admired Ling Yuanzhi for his resoluteness like his father when he grew up. For the sake of the child's upbringing, King Lingjun took his young son to the border and gave his young daughter to his mother-in-law to raise. The old lady felt that the Ling family's father and son were doing the same thing to convince him, which was not something ordinary people could do. Only such a person can raise wonderful children.

So when Ah Ning attended the banquet with her aunt at the age of twelve, the Cui family was under the advice of the old lady, and the housewives of the Cui family were already paying attention to Ah Ning's growth.

Now, Ah Ning is almost in time, and she has become a very beautiful girl. My father and brother have also returned from the border gate.

The old lady of the Cui family went out in person to visit the eldest princess Ning'an, the emperor's sister today. asked the eldest princess to be a matchmaker for her eldest grandson Cui Ji, and asked to marry the second lady of the county palace, A Ning.

If you want to say that the matchmaker of the eldest princess Ning'an has invited enough weight, the county prince's mansion has to think about it first if you want to refuse. What's more, the king of the county is still very satisfied with this family business.

Indeed, the king of the county and Linlang are very satisfied with this family business. The eldest son of the Cui family is Cui Ji, the eldest son of the eldest son of the big house Cui Yanshan. Cui Ji was brought to the old lady since he was a child, and was raised by the old lady herself. has the reputation of the first son in the capital, and it is the dream of many women in the capital who want to marry.

Cui Ji is already twenty-two this year, and he was really an older young man in ancient times. But the Cui family is stable. To say that this Cui Ji is handsome and extraordinary, talented, and has already won the top prize at the age of sixteen. Now he is the attendant of the Hanlin Academy, and he is known as the first son of the capital. How many women in the capital want to marry Cui Ji, and they are the ideal son-in-law candidates in the hearts of the family in the capital. But the old lady just didn't spit out, not that the old lady was waiting for Ah Ning to grow up, but that the old lady really didn't meet someone better than Ah Ning, and he was particularly satisfied. That's why it's been delayed until now. Now that the old lady is satisfied in all aspects, let's hurry up to the door to propose.

After the family affair is settled. The Cui family sent a dowry gift. This Cui family is not a century-old family, and it is not uncommon for this thing to be sent, the key is that there are also celebrity calligraphy and paintings here. That's worth the money. It can be seen how satisfied and attached importance to this marriage by the Cui family. Even many years later, people in the capital still talked about the dowry given by the Cui family.

In the second room, the Li family should have been very happy during this time, and after the second master Ling Yuanhui reported on his work, he stayed in the household department as the right attendant of the household department. The eldest son, Ah Yu, was admitted to the Jinshi, and Miss Luo, who was also appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, can be described as three joys. Even there are many people who come to the door to ask to marry Azhu. But because there is a Ah Ning, the brilliance of her daughter Ah Zhu is obscured. Look at those who came to marry Ah Ning, and then look at those who came to marry Ah Zhu. is also the daughter of the county king's mansion, but it is two grades. So Li was depressed.

For Azhu's marriage, the Li family has been currying favor with his mother-in-law Lao Wu for a period of time, and has also asked his daughter Azhu to go to the old lady from time to time to sell her belief. But slowly the Li family realized that the old lady had been marginalized.

The Li family is very unfair, and her husband is not bad, just because he does not have a title, he will have to act according to the face of the big house in the future. Look at Ah Ning, how many people come to ask for marriage, and because her daughter is in the second room, and she is separated by the title of county king, she is 108,000 miles away. Now Dafang's son Ling Yuanhang is already a Sipin general at a young age. And her husband is also the fourth product. His son is still studying and practicing martial arts, and he will have to fight for his future in the future. The more Li thought about it, the more unbalanced he became.

Ah Zhu stumbled in his yard and saw Ah Ning Ding give it to Cui Ji, the first son of the capital. Seeing the dowry given by the Cui family to Ah Ning, I was so jealous. My father and mother have not set a family affair for themselves yet, and I want to tell my father and mother that my family affairs must not be worse than Ah Ning. Isn't Ah Ning's father a county king, his father is also a fourth grade, and he is also a person from the county king's mansion, so where is the family background. can't compare to A Ning's family, so she doesn't want to marry.

Ah Ke was stunned in her aunt's house for a while, and looked up to see Aunt Yu shedding tears again. Ke sighed. My aunt has been like this since she saw Ah Ning marrying her, sighing, always saying that she delayed her daughter.

Ah Ke reluctantly persuaded her aunt: "Auntie, don't be like this, how can I blame you, didn't you have to be a concubine at the beginning." Don't cry anymore, your daughter doesn't complain, it's all your daughter's life. ”

Aunt Wan said: "You are older than A Ning, A Ning has family affairs, and Mrs. still doesn't tell you about family affairs, that is, Mrs. will not tell you anything about good people, I think the princess of the county and Miss A Ning are both open-minded and generous people, otherwise, my aunt will beg them." ”

Ah Ke was silent for a while: "Auntie, wait a little longer." ”

Ah Ke's heart is also bitter, but she is a filial girl, she doesn't want her aunt to worry too much about herself, but she can't go to the princess of the county now, she wants to wait, she doesn't believe that the Li family didn't tell her about her family affairs before Ah Zhu got married. To be stable, you must be stable, and you can't let your mother-in-law and Azhu look down on you even more.

Linlang became pregnant in October and gave birth to a daughter in January of the following year. The king of the county loves like a treasure, and named his youngest daughter Ling Yuanzhen, whose nickname is Niuniu.

Every time the king of the county goes down, he has to hug Xiao Azhen. He wants to make up for all the love he lacks in his eldest daughter A Ning.

A Ning's wedding date is set for a month after Ling Yuanhang got married. The brother and sister married one and the other in a month. Ling Yuanhang's wedding date is set for Ah Ru and Lu Hou, and Ah Ning's marriage is scheduled for early August.
