094 Medium lift
Do the people of Pingyang Town have a good evaluation of Xufu?
It can be said that if it weren't for the fact that Xu Mansion has a tradition of giving porridge and doing good deeds, their evaluation in the mouth of outsiders would really be bad.
But then again, apart from being a good family, is there anything worthy of praise in the Xu Mansion?
A wandering and uneducated head of the house, a high-minded and incompetent housewife, who is incompetent and ignorant of the world, how good will the mansion run by these two people be?
It can be said that the scholars in Pingyang Town generally have no good impression of people who practice martial arts, and in the final analysis, it is the sin created by Xu's father.
It's just because the Xu family made a fortune with martial arts, and Xu's father was a famous second ancestor and a gentleman when he was young, and he didn't do a single good thing, and he carried all the bad things. Therefore, in the eyes of the people in Pingyang Town, the Xu family's style is not as good as the next generation, and the reputation is not as good as day by day.
Humans are social animals and are most susceptible to being influenced by other people's thoughts and opinions.
I think that if Father Lin hadn't met Xu Erlang in person and had an intersection unintentionally, he would not have married his daughter. Because Xu Fu is in everyone's conversation, it is a filthy land, and the family that cherishes her daughter is really not happy for her to jump in and suffer.
But Father Lin valued Xu Erlang's talent and personality, and felt that he would become a man sooner or later, so he repeatedly persuaded Jinniang to marry him.
At that time, whether it was Xu Erlang's cold personality or outsiders' extremely poor evaluation of Xu Fu, Xu Erlang was able to marry Jin Niang, which was also a blessing and a certain amount of luck.
Don't talk about these far, and continue to talk about Father Xu. The people of Pingyang Town have no good impression of Xu's house, in the final analysis, it is because of Xu's father.
It's not nice to say that it's not good or appropriate, Father Xu is really like the rat poop that spoiled the pot full of porridge to Xu's mansion.
That's an exaggeration, but it's true.
Xu Erlang vaguely told Jin Niang about this, and Jin Niang was silent.
It may be that her ideas are more shallow, or more inclusive, she feels that Father Xu is really not to the point of being incorrigible and angry. Father Xu has a lot of wrongs, but he is only self-conscious, and he has no self-knowledge. This is not a big mistake, in modern times, at most he is despised, but in ancient times, because he was alone in the reputation of the family, it is really impossible to refute that he is hateful.
In the gap of Jinniang's silence, she heard Xu Erlang say again, "He can be so nonsense, so lawless, or silver." It is said that money is a person's confidence and a person's courage, and now I have dug up his courage...... I think my father will be in peace for some time. ”
Jin Niang complained with palpitations: Father Xu will not only be able to settle down, I'm afraid that he will have a stroke and will never be able to get up to find trouble for you, right?
To be honest, Jin Niang really didn't expect Xu Erlang to operate like this. It is said that beating a snake and hitting seven inches, Xu Erlang's practice can be the essence of it.
However, twenty taels of silver per month is put on ordinary rich and noble masters, and this money is indeed a lot. Can be for Xu's father...... It is said that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift. Father Xu is used to eating big fish and meat, and now let him eat porridge and side dishes, he is used to eating ghosts.
Although Jin Niang also agreed with Xu Erlang's approach in her heart, she still wanted to remind him, "You still pay more attention to your father in recent days, I'm worried about his ......" I am worried that Xu's father will come back in order to ask for more money, and he will come up with some bad ideas to block Xu Erlang. Or if he can't think about it and publicize this matter, then Xu Erlang's reputation will be ruined.
Therefore, unfilial piety is a great sin.
People who are not filial to their fathers are inhumane, do such people dare to use it? Minxian County dare not use it!
Therefore, in order to prevent Xu's father from saying the wrong thing and ruining Xu Erlang's career, he was really on guard.
Xu Erlang knew in his heart, so he patted Jinniang's arm to reassure him. He has his own plans in his heart, no matter what his father does, don't think about turning out his palm again.
The snowflakes fell intermittently for three days and four nights.
It was light snow at first, but on the third day it became a heavy snowfall.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and Jinniang is becoming less and less active and doesn't want to go out. Fortunately, now that Xu Erlang can rely on, what she doesn't want to do, she will hand it over to him, which is rare and more leisurely than before.
And Xu Erlang, who had tried his best to deal with Qiu Qiu earlier, was nervous, and he was indeed tired and panicked.
It was only after he got home that he really relaxed, and he was lazily unwilling to move.
He rarely even went to the study these days, and just took the books and lay on the chaise longue that Jin Niang used to make every day to read. In addition, in order to prevent the birth of hands, calligraphy has regressed, so I go to practice calligraphy for an hour every day after dinner.
These two things have taken up a lot of his time, but Jinniang has also lost a lot of account books and things for him to deal with......
Xu Erlang wanted to frown at this, but who made Jinniang pregnant, now that she is the biggest, he can only pinch his nose and respond.
Nearly a month passed unhurriedly, and on this day, the husband and wife were sitting together to discuss the preparation of a nurse for Xiao Yu'er, when they heard the sound of a maid running outside.
Jin Niang's heart jumped up immediately, and a thought rushed to her mind.
She grabbed Xu Erlang's arm, and Xu Erlang also stood up at this time.
He was still a little trembling when he held Jin Niang's hand, which showed that his mood was also excited and fluctuating, but there was no expression on his face, as if the good news was about to come, it was not important to him at all.
"Childe, madam, great joy! Great joy! The second son is raised, and the overall ranking is thirty-five! The slave maid congratulated Mrs. Childe!! ”
A room of maids all stared in disbelief when they heard this, and then reacted, the corners of their mouths couldn't hold back when they laughed, and they quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Jin Niang and the two, "Congratulations to Son, congratulations to Madame!" ”
"Son's great joy, lady's great joy!"
"It's finally out!"
“……”
I don't know who sighed, "I finally got through", and the corners of Jinniang's eyes were sour, and tears immediately poured out of her eyes.
yes, I finally got through it.
As Xu Erlang's pillow person, she is the only one in this family who knows how much pressure Xu Erlang's imperial examination is! He sometimes couldn't sleep all night because of this!
And in order to get a good score, he worshipped Mr. Ming and then Mr. Qian. He was full of arrogance and was alone, and in order to learn more, he bent down and asked for advice devoutly. And in order to enrich himself more, he studied day and night, practiced hard, and did not dare to relax for a moment.
He's really not easy!
Jin Niang thought about it, and her tears fell like pearls with broken threads.
The tears fell right on Xu Erlang's arm, and they were very hot, burning straight to Xu Erlang's heart.
Xu Erlang had mixed tastes, and his throat was a little choked, but when he saw Jin Niang's appearance, he couldn't help but laugh.
"It's a good thing, why are you crying?"
"I'm crying with joy." Jin Niang forcibly defended, and then couldn't help but lie in his arms, hugged his waist and said, "It's not easy...... I'm sorry for you. ”
Xu Erlang's heart was shocked, and his eyes were a little red.
Everyone was overjoyed to be lifted with him, and only Jinniang could still think of how bitter he was at the beginning.
He patted Jin Niang's shoulder to reassure, "It's not bitter, you can only get if you pay, don't you get a good result now." ”
He added, "It is a man's duty to support his family, and this is what I should do." I don't want you to worship people in the future, lose your confidence in front of people, and you can only work harder. Jin Niang, I hope I can finally ask for a phoenix crown for you one day, and make up a big makeup. ”
"Yes, surely, I believe in you!!"
Jin Niang's tears fell even happier. This is what Xu Erlang had promised her in his earlier letter, and now that he said it again, Jin Niang realized very clearly that this man really had the determination and ambition to embark on a career, and his fighting spirit was completely stimulated at this time.
The two of you have a strong affection for me, and I almost forgot about business. Thinking that there was still someone outside who reported the good news, Jin Niang wiped the tears from her face and smiled at Xu Erlang, "You have been lifted, it's a big deal." Now there may be how many people outside are waiting to congratulate you, you go out to socialize, and I will take care of the rest, you can rest assured. ”
"Okay." Xu Erlang had already put on his cloak and stepped out, and suddenly turned around and instructed Jinniang, "Don't be overworked, I'll let people call Pian Pian and San Lang to come over, if someone needs to come forward, you just ask the two of them to do it." If not, let these maids run errands, and you will be in the house, and don't come out. ”
"Okay."
After Xu Erlang left, Jin Niang instructed the girl, "Carry all the three baskets of copper coins prepared earlier to the door and scatter them." ”
Scattering copper coins is the style of people who have happy events at home, before Xu Erlang showed his talents, Jin Niang let people scatter three baskets of copper coins, and now Xu Erlang has participated in the autumn festival, Jin Niang naturally also prepared copper coins in case of emergency.
However, she didn't tell Xu Erlang about this, worried that he would be burdened again, and that he would not be able to lift people, so she was sad when she heard it.
Now it's good, God bless Xu Erlang, he really got a name for himself in the exam.
The youngest man in Pingyang Town is indeed worth celebrating, the Xu family is acting arrogantly, and no one will come over to block it at this time.
After thinking about it, Jin Niang said, "I remember that I had people buy a few firecrackers to prepare earlier, so let people put them quickly, and they were also lively and festive." ”
One after another, the maids ran out, and later San Lang and Pian Pian also came over, and Jin Niang said, "You came just in time, I have something for you to deal with." ”
Saburo's legs and feet have almost recovered at this time, this kid does have a strong recovery ability, others took three months to remove the splint, and he had already dismantled it two days ago. For this reason, the criminal doctor also personally checked his pulse, and came to the conclusion that San Lang recovered well, insisted on rehabilitation and exercise for a few days, and standing and walking was not a problem.
But now he has just removed the splint, and he didn't dare to let him stand and run, so he still let him use a wheelchair to walk, so this time San Lang came over, and he was pushed over in a wheelchair.
He is obviously very dissatisfied with such an appearance, but the second brother's middle move is a great joy, and now this is the most important thing, as for whether he can sit in a wheelchair or not, hmph, he will resolutely eliminate this thing the day after tomorrow.
Jin Niang said, "San Lang, your second brother has already gone to the front to socialize." However, he is a big happy event, he is so young, there are not a few people who want to make friends and please him, relatively, there should be a lot of people who come to give gifts or visit after hearing the news, I am worried that your second brother will not be able to deal with it, it is good for you to help him in the past. ”
"Okay, even if my sister-in-law doesn't say it, I'm going to go."
"Then you can go quickly. At noon, my sister-in-law asked people to order a few tables from outside, and if you see that it is necessary to keep guests, you will entertain them for a meal. I'll leave it to you. ”
San Lang should be, and he was pushed out by the little guy with all his might, and he had the momentum to do a big job. It was also the first time he had been entrusted with such a heavy task, and his excited expression couldn't be suppressed, plus the courtyard of Xu Erlang's house was changed, and he became a lifter, which raised the status of the family to a certain extent.
After San Lang left, Jin Niang turned to Pian Pian again and said, "It's a good thing for your second brother to be promoted, you can do it big or not." I mean, instead of acting too arrogant and making people jealous, it's better to leave the money for the running water table and save it for good deeds. ”
Pian Pian nodded, agreeing with what Jin Niang said.
Jin Niang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, so she continued, "This year's winter is particularly cold, especially the heavy snowfall a month ago, and many people's houses have been crushed. And some poor people have become displaced because of this, without a home or food, which is really pitiful. I thought, let Pian Pian go to the place where our house customizes clothes for the next people, make some cotton clothes, and distribute them to the poor outside the city for free. Then there is the soup kitchen, by the way, there is also a decoction, this can not be missing. Pianpian, I'll leave this matter to you, let Mama Qin and Mama Wu beside you give you a hand, can you do it well? ”
Pian Pian stood up as if he raised his little hand, and said with a face full of excitement, "I can, you believe my sister-in-law, if I don't do well, you will deduct my monthly money for the next year." ”
Jin Niang smiled, "Sister-in-law believes in you, you work hard, this is a good time to earn a reputation in our house, and what impression the people of Pingyang Town have of our family in the future depends on how Pian Pian has behaved in the past few days." Pianpin, do it well. ”
"Well, well, you wait and see, sister-in-law, I won't let you down."
Sending away San Lang and Pianpian, Jin Niang's excitement still couldn't be suppressed, she thought about it and said, "The subordinates who are on errands everywhere in the house have issued two more months of monthly cases, and we are also happy." ”
Several maids happily came over to thank them, and Jin Niang couldn't help but laugh when she looked at their beaming appearance.
Xu Erlang was lifted, which is really good.
Later, Jin Niang arranged for people to send letters everywhere, the Lin family, Mrs. Shi, Mr. Ming, and Xu Erlang's two friends, who were usually better, and Jin Niang sent people over.
After dealing with these, Jin Niang patted her forehead suddenly, she was really pregnant, and her brain was not enough.
She only dealt with the outside affairs, but there were still two mountains at home. No matter where Xu's father is or Xu's mother, she forgot to let people go over to say hello, she really shouldn't.
