A smile appeared on the face of the Yacha, and the smile was even warmer than when he came to the door to say hello to the Chen family, "It turns out that Xie Yuanlang is actually your child, sister-in-law is going home and waiting, our adults should be about to arrive with the squires in the county, your Qingyu Village is really outstanding, not only the Chen family brother has won the list, but also Xie Yuanlang!" ”

Zhao said in disbelief, "Lord Guancha, do you mean that my brother understands Yuan?" ”

Yacha nodded and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, don't be stunned, hurry up and go home and prepare, calculate the time, the county magistrate should be almost there." ”

"Eh, I'll go home." As if in a dream, Zhao walked lightly through the crowd with his feet and walked back home.

The villagers at the door of Chen's house were stunned for a while before they reacted.

"There is a Xie Yuanlang in our village, and the ancestral tomb of the Yu family is smoking!"

"Go and see the excitement, the county master will come in a while, I don't know how big a battle it will be!"

Saying that, many villagers rushed in the direction of Yujia like a tide.

The smile on Chen Zhiqing's face had long since disappeared, and the smugness of the previous moment had turned into humiliation because of the three words Xie Yuanlang, as if someone had slapped him in the face loudly, which was extremely embarrassing.

Yu Qiyu obviously hasn't been in school for three years, how can he get to the top of the list in one fell swoop? Yu Zhizhou has always been average in learning, and when he was in the academy in the past, he was not outstanding at all.

Seeing that the yacha was leaving, Chen Zhiqing said without giving up, "Brother Guancha, dare to ask which brother is on the list of the Yu family?" ”

"The first place in the township test list is called Yu Qiyu, and I don't know which brother of the Yu family he is." Yacha said with a smile, "In previous years, Xie Yuan was the door of that generation of scholars, but this year it fell in our little-known small place, which is very good for our Changkui long face, and the prefect of Qingzhou also specially sent someone to congratulate him, this Yu family will be great in the future!" ”

Chen Zhiqing smiled stiffly, in line with the words, "It's unexpected." ”

Sensing Chen Zhiqing's frustration, the yacha patted him on the shoulder, "It's not easy to be able to move, the Chen family brother is also a leader among the people, and the county commander will come over later, maybe he will also come to visit, you go and prepare." ”

"It's easy to go, official." Chen Gensheng smiled and watched the yacha leave, turned around and saw Chen Zhiqing with a depressed face, and patted him on the shoulder, "What the official said is that you don't need to be arrogant, this time you can be lifted to give me the face of Chen's family!" ”

The two turned around and walked to the courtyard, Chen Qin's family was burning herbs in the corner of the courtyard, the old lady of the Chen family had been in the house for so long, the corpse already smelled, fortunately, the yacha who had just come to the door to say goodbye did not enter the house to drink tea, but just stayed in the courtyard for a while.

"My son is really good, and he has given his mother a long face." Chen Qin's words were full of pride.

Chen Gensheng glanced at the old lady's house, the joy on his face disappeared, and it was replaced by a deep sorrow.

"Does it smell now? If the county magistrate really came to the door, would he smell it......" Zhao followed his gaze and said with some concern.

"Now that Zhiqing has been lifted, his mother's body can no longer be placed at home, and it's time to bury it." Chen Gensheng said.

"Father......" Chen Zhiqing pleaded with a smile on his face, and stopped, "Spring will be in February next year, and I ask my father to ...... for his son's future."

Chen Gensheng interrupted him, "I know that your future is important, but your grandmother's body can no longer be placed in the house like this, so you will quietly go to the back mountain to be buried tonight." ”

Although he is filial, but Mrs. Chen has passed away, after these days, the grief in his heart has been reduced a lot, today Chen Zhiqing is in the middle, the village to congratulate, such a scenery makes Chen Gensheng taste the sweetness, if he is in the Jinshi in the future, he can have an official and a half position, Chen Gensheng has considered the weight.

It's just that the old lady's body can't be put down at home like this anymore, and if you don't mourn secretly, you need to bury someone secretly first.

"Thank you father for loving his son." Chen Zhiqing saw that Chen Gensheng meant this, and couldn't help but say with a happy face.

Chen Rou walked out of the house and said softly, "Brother Hexi is on the list, let's go to bury my grandmother together in the evening, if my grandmother knows about the spring, she will definitely be happy for her brother." ”

Chen Zhiqing nodded, looked at his sister's beautiful face, and sighed, "It's a pity that Li Qiu failed to make the list this time, but he was wronged that his sister couldn't be a wife." ”

Chen Rou pursed her lips, with a lost expression on her face, which was particularly cute.

Chen Qin stroked Chen Rou's head, "It's a pity that my daughter has such a beautiful appearance, but she can only marry someone like that, if I hadn't married you earlier, it would be good, now that your brother has become a lifter, he will definitely be able to find a better family for you." ”

Chen Rou shook her head, "It's okay, as long as my brother is lifted, it's nothing if I suffer some grievances." ”

Chen Gensheng looked at his little daughter, and also felt that Li Qiu was too ordinary and not worthy of his daughter at all.

A thought suddenly came to mind, and he frowned and thought, "Why don't you return Arou's family affairs?" ”

Chen Qin's heart was a little moved, "At this time, I am afraid that the Li family will not want to withdraw from the family." ”

Chen Zhiqing was also very moved, he said, "The reward you get, and the ten taels of the Li family's engagement fee are more than enough." I am now a person and a meritorious person, and the Li family should not dare to mess around. ”

Zhongju was rewarded by the imperial court, and the official sent him to say goodbye, so he brought the silver rewarded by the county, and Chen Zhiqing was very confident in saying these words.

He had another consideration in his heart, he would go to the capital for spring in the future, he might as well bring Chen Rou with him, with her appearance, it must not be difficult to find a good family in the capital, if he was lucky enough to climb the powerful nobles, their Chen family would be able to take advantage of this to become a phoenix.
