Chapter 120: Spring Breeze Triumphant
Feng Cheng walked into the house and saw that the house was already crowded with people.
At the top sat the smiling Feng Shangshu and the old lady Niu with a spring breeze, then the second master Feng Jinnan, the third master Feng Jinxi, the eldest wife You Shi, and the younger generation was Feng Yu and Feng Tao.
Seeing Feng Cheng coming, Feng Jinnan was the first to speak: "Orange, come here, your eldest brother has won the second place!" β
Feng Cheng walked quickly to Feng Yu's side and was overjoyed: "Big brother, congratulations." β
The imperial examination has to go through four tests, namely the children's examination, the township examination, the meeting examination, and the palace examination, and the most difficult of the four examinations is the township examination.
Now that Feng Yu has been successfully lifted, it is of course a great joy for Feng Cheng.
Facing his sister's joy, Feng Yuyun was light: "Thank you, sister." β
Feng Cheng sneered: "What does the eldest brother thank me?" β
Feng Yu smiled gently: "The eldest brother can play smoothly, it must be the credit of the shoes and socks given by my sister before the exam." β
"Then when the eldest brother is in the spring next year, I will also send shoes and socks to the eldest brother." Feng Cheng said with a smile.
Seeing that the brother and sister were harmonious, Mrs. Niu smiled and said, "Yu'er did well in the exam this time, and she will definitely go further next year." β
"Why don't you see the second brother?" Despite the speculation in his heart, Feng Cheng still asked.
The room was silent.
After a while, Second Master Feng forced a smile and said, "Your second brother didn't play well this time, but fortunately, Yu'er fought for our family and won the second place in the exam." β
Feng Cheng smiled: "Second uncle, don't be sad, the second brother is still young, and he will only be twenty years old when he takes the exam in three years." β
The corner of Second Master Feng's mouth stiffened.
If you don't succeed once, you have to wait for three years, how can it be so lightweight.
Old Madam Niu also twitched the corners of her mouth, remembering Feng Shangshu's words before the exam.
Feng Shangshu smiled and said: "Orange is right, Hui'er still has a chance, I think I-"
"By the way, Orange, your uncle's cousin is also on the list this time." Old Madam Niu hurriedly interrupted Feng Shangshu's words.
The old man is going to think about the old days again, and he doesn't want to think about it, can it be the same?
At that time, Dawei had just settled down, and it was the time when talents were needed, and it was not too late to enter the career in his thirties. But now, if you are in your thirties and only become a junior sergeant, I am afraid that you will not be able to survive the fourth grade for more than ten years.
"Yes." Listening to Old Madam Niu's words, Feng Cheng looked at You Shi with a smile.
In front of everyone, You Shi had a rare smile: "Your aunt has sent someone to report the good news, please go to the banquet the day after tomorrow." β
"Congratulations to my cousin." Feng Cheng's tone was light.
You Shi knew that her daughter was dissatisfied with her nephew, and sighed secretly.
For her, although she was dissatisfied with her nephew's previous words and deeds, she also hoped that her nephew could shine on the lintel.
"It is a great joy for Yu'er to be famous, and we have dinner together at night." Mrs. Niu spoke.
Feng Shangshu followed: "I won't entertain guests this time." β
Yu'er is already famous, and he is his grandson, so there is no need for a large banquet.
When Second Master Feng heard Feng Shangshu say this, his heart became more and more uncomfortable.
The father said that he would not entertain guests this time, obviously full of confidence in Feng Yu's annual meeting, and then think about his son......
After leaving Changning Hall, Second Master Feng went to Feng Hui.
Feng Mei was comforting her dejected brother, and when she saw Second Master Feng coming, she bent her knees and stood aside.
When Second Master Feng saw Feng Hui's appearance, he twisted his eyebrows in displeasure: "What are you doing like this, for fear that others won't laugh at it?" β
Feng Hui didn't hear it and didn't say a word.
"Put away your frustration, work hard for three years, and get a good ranking in the exam to make your grandfather and grandmother treat you differently."
Feng Hui's eyes moved, and he finally spoke: "My son has worked very hard......
He is not as smart as his eldest brother by nature, so what can he do?
"Hardworking? Do you still have the leisure to fight with others? β
Feng Hui's face turned pale.
Feng Mei couldn't help but say: "Father, the second brother fought with others because Han Chengshuo insulted his mother!" β
Second Master Feng sneered: "That's also your mother's misbehaving!" β
"If it weren't for my father's outer roomβ"
There was a snap, interrupting Feng Mei's argument.
Second Master Feng looked at his daughter with a pale face: "This is also what one of your girls' family said?" β
Feng Mei covered her face, and her widening eyes quickly filled with tears.
Second Master Feng didn't regret it.
It is unfilial piety for a child to accuse his father in person.
"In the future, you will have no distractions to study, can you remember?"
Feng Hui raised his eyes to look at his stern father and nodded slowly.
Second Master Feng breathed a sigh of relief and turned around and left.
Feng Mei hugged Feng Hui's arm and cried: "Second brother, you must be admitted in three years, you are the only one that my mother and I rely on......"
Listening to his sister's whining cry, Feng Hui muttered, "I know, I'll work hard to ......"
Leaving Feng Hui's residence, Feng Mei wiped away her tears.
The autumn wind blew on her face, causing her cheeks wet with tears to hurt.
She walked towards the Dark Fragrance House step by step, her eyes getting colder and colder.
Father's eyes are now full of the mother and son in the outer room, looking at today's attitude towards her and the second brother, don't expect your father to shelter from the wind and rain in the future.
As for the second brother, can you count on the two words?
After all, people still have to rely on themselves!
She has to be strong so that she will not be so aggrieved, and it is possible to help her mother get out of trouble.
Compared with the unsatisfactory situation in the second room, You Shi was in a good mood, and before going to You Mansion for the banquet, he pulled Feng Cheng and persuaded him softly: "Cheng'er, my mother knows that you have an opinion on your cousin, but this time is a great joy for your grandfather's family after all, and you have to get by on the surface......
Feng Cheng listened and nodded obediently: "Mother, don't worry, I know." β
It won't be long after all.
The carriage arrived at Youfu, and his uncle's wife, Xu, was waiting outside as usual.
Today, the You family held a feast, and it was not only the You family who entertained them, and when the banquet was held, listening to the hustle and bustle, Feng Cheng was bored.
"My cousin is so blessed, Hanzhang won the lifting of people at a young age, and he will be promoted to the Jinshi next year, that is the protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven."
Listening to the compliments of his relatives, Xu couldn't hide his smugness: "It's even more difficult for Zhongjinshi, and Hanzhang can be satisfied with me." β
"That is, if that kid in my family has a good appearance, he will wake up laughing in his dreams."
The woman on the side smiled and said: "Don't dream, people have won the lift before they reach the crown, which is comparable to ordinary people?" I didn't see Wang Xiucai at the east end of the street, and when he was fifty years old, he failed the list again this time......"
Although the woman who spoke before didn't like this, she couldn't refute it, and continued to compliment Xu's with a smile on her face: "Speaking of which, Hanzhang has also reached the age of marrying a wife, and we Hanzhang are talents, and we can't be sloppy in life." β
Xu subconsciously glanced at Feng Cheng at the next table, and said with a reserved smile: "Hanzhang is still young, don't worry." β
The woman smiled knowingly: "Also, it's not too late to wait for Hanzhang to get into the Jinshi, maybe it's a happy event to kiss and kiss." β
Next door, Feng Tao put the chopsticks on the table and said, "Sister, I want to go and change clothes, you can accompany me." β
