The two sisters-in-law in the western room probably didn't expect that the two little girls here were listening to them intently.

"If you want me to say don't worry too much, I think that child seems to be a blessed one, and he may not be a great edification in the future." Song comforted Xie, "In the final analysis, he is not a child of your Su family after all. Other people's marriages are all ordered by their parents, and his marriage is indeed more difficult. ”

"Alas, in fact, for so many years, I have long regarded him as my own child, thinking that he is no different from Brother Che." Xie's voice was a little melancholy, "But when it comes to marriage, we can't help but think about it." ”

"You don't have to think about it so much, you have been a lot of people to him over the years," Song said with relief, "Even us outsiders are looking at it, let alone himself." ”

"Speaking of marriage, this Brother Che is getting older day by day, what are your plans?"

"Sister-in-law, you're pretending to be confused with me." There was also a bit of a smile in Xie's voice at this time, "What is Brother Che'er's plan, can you still not know?" ”

The Song family also giggled when they heard this: "Our sister Ying is a girl's family, it's not good for us to chase you away." ”

Hearing this, the two young ladies in the east room widened their eyes at the same time, you look at me, I look at you, and their faces were full of shock.

Xie and Song actually had such an idea.

However, Su Man and Xie Ying's surprised direction was obviously not the same.

Xie Ying just didn't expect her mother to have such a plan, and she was a little embarrassed for a while, so she couldn't speak.

And Su Man, at this time, her mind was full of another thing.

This Xie Ying and Su Che can be regarded as collateral blood relatives within three generations, is it okay to have a child?

The conversation between the two girls continued, but the two little girls here no longer had the heart to eavesdrop.

Xie Ying turned his head and saw Su Man staring at him thoughtfully, and his cheeks burned red.

She pulled the quilt casually, and got into it at once, and couldn't survive in it.

Su Man knew that the little girl was shy, so she also lay down properly, and she really fell asleep after a while.

Xie Yingmeng didn't hear Su Man teasing himself in the quilt for a long time, and quietly poked his head out.

Only then did I realize that I had been shy for a long time, but this broad-hearted cousin slept like a dead pig.

……

After lunch, the male guests in the outer courtyard also said goodbye, and only Su Zhen's uncle Xie Min talked to Su Zhen and Lu Yan in the outer study.

Xie Min is the eldest son of the elder Xie Bixing, who was born in the two lists of Jinshi, and is now working as an editor in the Hanlin Academy.

Xie Min took the tea and glanced at Lu Yan, who was sitting at the bottom, coughed lightly, and asked, "Is Yizhi sure about next year's Spring Festival?" ”

Lu Yan chuckled lightly and replied respectfully: "Don't dare to say it, the juniors can only say that they will do their best." ”

"Well," Xie Min bowed his head, with a little satisfaction in his expression, "It's a good thing for young people to know how to converge, but don't think that you are Xie Yuan now, so you will take it lightly and don't look at anything in your eyes." ”

"The juniors don't dare." Lu Yan's expression remained unchanged, and his attitude was still respectful.

"I've read your strategy, the penmanship is plain and rigorous, it's very good, if this year's examiner happens to be a pragmatic faction, you have a very good chance of entering the first class." Xie Min put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Lu Yan with a smile.

"Now the candidate for the examiner must have been decided, but I don't want to ask rashly. These sideways are not long-term solutions after all, you still have to work hard yourself. ”

"The younger generation knows, thank you uncle for your advice." Lu Yan stood up and bowed towards Xie Min.

Su Zhen on the side laughed and said: "I can't help with this study, Brother Yan has to rely on his father-in-law and uncle to help." ”

"Uncle's words are too polite, not to mention that we are a family, my father and I are already very optimistic about Brother Yan, but this way, we still have to go step by step to go steadily."

……

After sending Xie Min's family away, Lu Yan confessed to Su Zhen, saying that he was a little tired, and went straight back to Moyuanju.

The chief examiner for next year's spring festival has indeed been decided, and others don't know about it, but Lu Yan, who has experienced a lifetime, is very clear.

Yan Youting, today's secretary of the Ministry of Rites, the first assistant of the cabinet.

In his previous life, it was precisely because Lu Yan was under his door that his career was smooth sailing, and he even successfully entered the cabinet ten years later, becoming the youngest pavilion elder in Da Chen's history.

However, later, because Yan Youting was involved in the party to earn, as the prince's party, he was uprooted by the current emperor, which almost affected him.

If it weren't for Mingzhe's self-preservation, he would not have pretended to join the command of the fourth prince, King Jin, and would not have left a reputation for being a minister who did not respect his teacher.

But since he can start over again, he has the right to choose again.

In this life, he still needs power, and he still needs to enter the center of power as soon as possible, because only in this way can he completely protect the Zhongyong Mansion under his wing.

Therefore, in this life, he chose to make friends with Ji Yang.

Because the relationship between Yan Youting and Xie Bixing in the previous life was very delicate, his relationship with the Xie family was only superficial.

Lu Yan thought about these chaos, but the thoughts in his mind became clearer and clearer.

He sat up from the Luohan bed and beckoned to Qingyuan, who was standing with his hands down.

Qingyuan understood, and immediately walked to Lu Yan's side, bowing down to concentrate.

"How's it going with what I told you to prepare the other day?"

Lu Yan asked directly without a head or tail, Qingyuan was slightly stunned for a moment, immediately reacted, and replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, Childe, things are going smoothly, I think there will be a fleet of more than ten days to go to sea." ”

Lu Yan mumbled indistinctly, was silent for a moment, and spoke again: "How long will it take to come back?" ”

"Childe, don't worry, the boss of the boat said that this route is all familiar, and you will be able to come back in three or four months at most."

"Hmm."

Lu Yan replied in a low voice, and stopped talking.

Qingyuan waited for a while, looked left and right again, and lowered his voice a little lower: "Childe, don't you plan to let your uncle and Mrs. know about this matter?" ”

"Well, this matter is too risky, and it will only increase their worries if they know about it, so it's better not to say it." Lu Yan said, turning his head to look at Qingyuan, "Only you and I Qingcheng know about this matter, and you must not let the fourth person know." ”

"Don't worry, don't worry, villain." Qingyuan bowed, only took two steps back, and then heard Qingcheng walk in.

Qingcheng walked briskly, walked in front of Lu Yan in a few steps, bowed and saluted: "Son, the shop has been plated, just waiting for you to choose a good day to open." ”
