After the meal, Jin Niang saw her uncle, Aunt Shen and others.

Uncle Shen still heard that Jin Niang came with a few children, so he came over to take a look. As for Aunt Shen, it was a piece of kraft candy, and she couldn't stick to Jinniang.

Aunt Shen was also very shrewd, although Jin Niang concealed her attitude very well, Aunt Shen still noticed that she didn't want Xu Erlang to arrange an errand for Shen Cheng.

Aunt Shen was naturally very unhappy about this.

In the past, she directly used Uncle Shen to pry Jinniang's mouth, so that she had to let go.

But the previous matter of greedy Jin Niang pressing the silver at the bottom of the box was not exposed, Aunt Shen was not only worried that Jin Niang had pierced the matter, but also worried that Jin Niang's anger was too strong at that time, so she wisely avoided Jin Niang for a few days and did not come to her.

But Qing'er has been married for so long, and Jinniang also covered up that matter well, without the slightest intention of leaking it to the public, which made Aunt Shen's mind active again.

She felt that Jin Niang still paid too much attention to her feelings, otherwise she couldn't worry that Uncle Shen would be angry, worried that the friendship between the two families would be ruined, and she chose not to trigger it.

Since she chose to gently press this matter down, Aunt Shen naturally had nothing to be unhappy about. She was very happy, and even felt frivolously that it must be that the congratulatory gifts they gave when Qing'er got married were too rich, and Jinniang couldn't say anything.

Thinking of the "congratulatory gift" to Qing'er, Aunt Shen felt distressed again. A shop, plus five thousand taels of silver, that's not old or young.

If you want a bowl of water, the congratulatory gift for Qing'er should be on par with Jinniang, and Qing'er should be given five hundred taels. But didn't she look at Jin Niang's face and add this congratulatory gift to 5,000? This back and forth not only made up for the "shortfall" caused by her earlier, but also made a net profit of 4,100 taels.

So the Lin Mansion took a big advantage. In other words, Jin Niang took a big advantage.

Aunt Shen's illogical logic is also a headache.

She attributed this matter to the fact that she spent money to buy Jinniang to shut up, and Jinniang not only couldn't mention this matter in the future, but thanked her because she helped Lin Fu, helped Qing'er, and gave a generous gift.

In other words, Aunt Shen felt that her waist was very hard now, which was enough to condescendingly instruct Jinniang to quickly give Shen Cheng a future. If Jinniang is unwilling, if she refuses, then she is a white-eyed wolf and ungrateful.

When Aunt Shen saw Jinniang, she wanted to come to her, but Xuanxuan felt that her aunt was like treating her sister as fat, and she wanted to take a bite when she went up.

She didn't know what happened between her sister and her aunt, but since she happened to meet her uncle and aunt and her father and mother talking about the gift to her brother that day, her sister didn't look right when she talked about her aunt again.

Xuanxuan is a clever girl, and she intuitively feels that her sister is unhappy when she faces her aunt, so she doesn't want her aunt to go to her sister.

She was the first to take a step forward and enthusiastically wanted to talk to her aunt. But Aunt Shen didn't bother to pay attention to her.

Now in this family, Xuanxuan and her mother are the most useless. Her mother is okay, she is an elder after all, if she takes out the shelf, whether it is Jinniang or Qing'er, she can only follow her. So she reluctantly befriended this sister-in-law, and she could expect some returns. But what's the use of her taking care of Xuanxuan, a little girl with an uncertain future? Her husband's family is undecided, and now she is an ordinary boudoir woman, who can't give her a little help to her city, and it's a pure waste of time to take care of her.

Aunt Shen missed Xuanxuan and went directly to Jinniang. This attitude of ignoring is not too obvious, and Qing'er and Ke Ke frowned.

Jin Niang didn't notice this scene, she was greeting her uncle at this time. My uncle intended to buy a house and a shop in the capital, and after looking at it for a few days, he also selected a few good places. However, in the end, I am not familiar with the capital, and I dare not make a rash decision. It happened that Jinniang asked, and my uncle also told me about my troubles.

The two uncles and nephews here talked enthusiastically, Qing'er and Ke Ke glanced at each other, one pulled Xuanxuan over and asked her to help make tea for the elders, so that Xuanxuan would not be so embarrassed, and the other walked directly to her aunt, Qing'er said, "My sister told me just now, and my brother-in-law arranged for Brother Rong to go to Yingtian Academy to study." I would like to ask my aunt if I want my cousin to study in the academy for a while. ”

As soon as Qing'er's words came out, not only Aunt Shen was stunned, but even the Shen Cheng couple behind her, as well as Uncle Shen, who was talking to Jinniang, stopped talking and looked at Qing'er suddenly.

Shen Cheng's wife was the most excited, "Is it okay?" Xiang Gong is not a child of an official eunuch, can he also be enrolled in Yingtian Academy to study? ”

Aunt Shen grabbed Qing'er's arm, "Good boy, do you have a way?" Tell your aunt what you have to do to get your cousin in. Whether it's a gift or a gift, as long as you point out the doorway, my aunt will do it immediately. ”

Uncle Shen stopped talking when he heard what he said.

He also wanted his son to continue studying, but unfortunately Shen Cheng's talent was limited, and he was already lucky. When he was in Pingyang, he also participated in two Autumn Festivals, but unfortunately they were both named Sun Shan.

This is all in response to the old gentleman's comments on him.

Therefore, Uncle Shen no longer has hope for his son to continue the scientific expedition.

But it's not bad to have the opportunity for your child to continue to study at the academy for a few years. First, the sons of non-officials and wealthy businessmen of Yingtian Academy cannot enter, and if they enroll, it is equivalent to opening another level of social circle, which is beneficial to the future of Shen Cheng in the future. Second, Shen Cheng is now the time when he can't make up his mind. His heart is higher than the sky, and he also wants to learn from Erlang and Qing'er to make a name for themselves, which makes him very unwilling to drop his books and turn to business. He was unwilling to make a living as a man in this nine fashions, feeling that it would undermine his dignity. He didn't say these words, but how could he, the old man, not see it?

Originally, he brought his son to the capital just to ask for a chance to turn around, but he didn't expect it to be there.

It doesn't matter if he goes to the academy to study, he will be able to hold on to it for a few more years. It won't work out at that time, anyway, his son's relationship network has been built, even if he is allowed to go home to inherit the family business, he has no excuse to shirk it. After all, he gave the opportunity, but he didn't achieve anything, so it can only be said that God is destined that he should not take that road.

Besides, when I went to the academy, Jinniang from the province turned around and begged Erlang to arrange an errand for Cheng'er. If Cheng'er is really that kind of slippery character, he is relieved to throw him into officialdom, but this kid is clever and has great wisdom. Maybe when someone sells it, they will pay for it. And whether it is Erlang or Qing'er, they all have a bright future, and it is impossible to take care of him all the time. So for the sake of a small life, it's better to study and do business honestly.

Uncle Shen looked at Qing'er with fiery eyes, Shen Cheng looked at Qing'er with excitement, and Aunt Shen even grabbed Qing'er's arm.

Qing'er looked at a few people, then looked at Jinniang, and then said with a smile, "I still have this face." If my cousin is interested, I'll find someone to dredge up this matter later. My cousin has always said that I owe some luck and don't have a good master, which is my cousin's regret all along. ”

Qing'er said, "Wait until I go back and write a letter to ask the teacher to see if I can add a place." If it can be done, my cousin and Brother Rong will be able to enroll together. ”

Shen Cheng was excited and a little embarrassed, he was in his thirties, but he wanted to enter school with a hairy boy, and his face was gone. But compared to the future, face is not so important, so he said, "Then it will bother my cousin." ”

"It's okay. It's just that before the matter is completed, my cousin is afraid that he will have to go to the academy with me to meet the teacher. "That's what it means to be assessed. But this is also the proper meaning, after all, no matter where you enroll, this level is indispensable. Even if it is a newly recruited disciple, there is still the obstacle of the entrance exam, not to mention a student like Shen Cheng who came halfway, the assessment will only be stricter, not simple.

Qing'er's words made Shen Cheng suddenly feel Alexander, and for a while, he couldn't care about greeting Father Lin and Aunt Shen, so he hurriedly greeted the two of them, and wanted to go back to review.

The elders were considerate of him, and they all smiled and told him to hurry up. When Shen Cheng stepped out of the door with one foot, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have a book......

When he went to Beijing, he stuffed a few books in his bag, but those books had nothing to do with the scientific expedition. Those are all popular books in the world, most of them are poetry collections, that is, some works of literati who are attached to elegance...... In short, he voted for Shen Cheng's thoughts, so he liked it too, and he watched it all the way. It's a pity that this has nothing to do with the imperial examination, even if he writes sour poems well, it will be in vain if he doesn't take the exam.

In the end, Qing'er couldn't read it, and thoughtfully said that he would send the book he had used over, and Shen Cheng was grateful to Dade for leaving with his wife and children.

As soon as Shen Cheng left, it seemed to take away Aunt Shen's heart.

I saw that Aunt Shen's eyes kept turning outward, and even the toes were facing outward. She didn't even bother Jinniang much, after all, her son didn't have to seek an official now, maybe in a few years, the court would try its best to be an official for her son. But Jin Niang also has to make friends here, so it's better to leave a way back for her son.

Aunt Shen is now bent on making some chicken soup for her son to replenish his body, and thinking that she heard that people who eat walnuts are smart, so she will go to the market to buy a basket of walnuts. I wondered if I should have moved out of the Lin Mansion earlier? After all, Lin Mansion is not his own home, so it is still somewhat inconvenient. If you come to your son's study again, you have to be secluded, the Lin family is now prosperous, and there are many people coming and going every day, so it will not be good to delay your son's study.

Thinking about it, Aunt Shen felt that it was imperative to move.

So after returning to the courtyard where they lived in the evening, Uncle Shen drove the maids away, and told Uncle Shen about the house he was looking for.

Uncle Shen frowned and looked at her and said, "I just told Jinniang about this, didn't you hear?" ”

Where did I hear that? My heart is full of possession of my son, and I still have the ability to divide my mind among the rest?

Uncle Shen also knew what she was, so he couldn't help but sigh and say the advice given by Jin Niang. Then he said, "Since it's studying, let's choose a secluded house, and when Jin Niang and I mean, I'll go to the west side of Shun'er Hutong tomorrow to have a look." The people who live there are all noble scholars, and the word "Shun Er" sounds auspicious, and it may refer to our city. ”

Aunt Shen doesn't know that the word "Shun Er" is auspicious, she has only heard of the year of Ear Shun, so does this Shun Ear have anything to do with Er Shun? If there is, it is really a good place, you can take a look.

"If the house in Shun'er Hutong is not suitable, I am going to buy a courtyard in Yingtian Town to live in."

"Ying Tianzhen? What's that? ”

Uncle Shen explained, "That's the town below Yingtian Academy. Because Yingtian College does not allow students to bring their servants over, there are parents who arrange for them to be in case of their children's needs. Over the years, various shops were opened there, and scholars gathered, and gradually it became a town. ”

Uncle Shen said, "It's still Brother Rong who told me about this, and the child also said that they also have a house in Yingtian Town, which was purchased earlier to facilitate the two children of Changping and Changping to go to school. ”

In the end, Aunt Shen loves to take advantage of her nature, and immediately wanted to say that since it is the mansion of the Xu Mansion, it is Jinniang's, they are Jinniang's uncle and aunt, wouldn't it be better to borrow it to live?

Uncle Shen saw through her thoughts at a glance, and immediately pointed at her angrily, "What to say and what not to say, you think about it before you speak." Jin Niang is your niece, not your own daughter, even if she is your own daughter, she has not sucked blood on someone like this. Besides, Cheng'er is going to study, and you let people know that he lives in a relative's house with his family, how will outsiders look at him? Have you forgotten that the Xu Mansion has two grandsons, and they usually have to settle in that house. ”

When Aunt Shen heard this, she immediately shut up and didn't say anything.

Her son is her reverse scale, and all things for the good of her son, Aunt Shen will rush forward without any scruples. On the other hand, if it is harmful to his son, then don't try to get close to his son.

Uncle Shen nodded her head twice, it seemed that she heard his words in her heart, which made Uncle Shen breathe a sigh of relief in her heart.

The insider is still a bastard, and he has no other way than to use words to threaten him. Fortunately, I found her weakness, and it was easy to scare her. This made Uncle Shen's heavy heart relax a little.

In the end, he was old, and Uncle Shen rested after bathing. It was Aunt Shen, who couldn't help but start thinking about Chang'an Changping at this time......

These two are the grandsons of the Xu family, although the two children have a bad life, their father died early, and their mother remarried early, but who makes their uncles and aunts angry.

The second uncle is now from the third grade, and there must be a rise after that. Third uncle, this is a soldier, don't talk about the future. It's their little aunt who is married to a royal family, and now she is the Marquis of Shunhai, who everyone admires.

That's not a small dependence.

So the question is, will she continue to plot to make her Baozhu Qing'er's wife and concubine, or will she simply make a pile of her and Chang'an?

If you are a concubine for Qing'er, the benefits are obvious, you can not only kiss and kiss, but also find a wishful husband for your daughter; The bad thing is that it will offend the Ke Mansion - if it is not on the stage, it is fine, but the wife of the Ke family, Ke Ke's mother is a princess; And Ke Ke is not as soft and waxy as she thought, and it is also prickly. It wouldn't be easy for her to open her mouth and agree to the orb to enter the door.

But if you let Baozhu marry Chang'an......
