Ling Sheng and Ling Yuanfan went home first on the second day of Du Yi's marriage, while Lin Heru and Ling Yang accompanied Du Yi and returned to the Hou Mansion on the third day.

Du Yi's so-called Three Dynasties returned to the Gate, and he followed Ziyi City to the Hou Mansion one after another. Zi Yicheng took advantage of something to discuss with Ling Sheng, took a step ahead of Du Yi, and came to the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong. It may seem strange, but that's the only way to do it.

The Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion set up a table in the bamboo garden, and the family in the sense of having a meal together was the matter. Even if they are already husband and wife, the life of the two is the same as before they got married. It's just that occasionally Zi Yicheng will take advantage of the night in the Du Mansion, or Xiao Shuai will be taken to the Regent's Mansion by Ling Yuanfan from time to time to play.

Now the people in the capital, in addition to spreading how Du Heng treated that monster, there are also rumors about how the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion dotes on Du Yisheng's wild species.

The people in the capital didn't understand why the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion would take such a fancy to Du Yi, the niece who had lost her virginity. Is it because Shangshu's daughter can't have children, and he takes a fancy to Du Yi's fertility and wants to marry her to his only son-in-law?

Du Yi and Lin Heru, who heard the news, laughed in the Shan Garden. Every time he saw Ling Yuanfan's helpless expression, he knew that he was being troubled by Zi Yicheng again.

"Xianggong, you are so bitter every day with a face, I don't know, I still think I abused you. Fortunately, my father and mother also went that day, otherwise I would have thought that you were going to marry Cousin Yiyi."

Ling Yuanfan hugged him in his arms and said fiercely: "Let's go, let's give birth to a son." When I give birth to a son, let's see what those people say."

After the New Year, I am also preparing for the scientific examination, and during this time, Du Zilin has had a particularly beautiful time. Nowadays, no one in the capital knows that she is a merchant girl and is extremely favored by Empress Dowager Ding.

Du Zilin, who had just come out of the palace that day, looked at the belt on her hand and the head on her head, all of which were rewarded by the Queen Mother, and her heart was beautiful. Because of this, in the past few days, there have been many people who have come to the door to propose marriage.

It's just that she is worried about Zi Yifeng, and she feels that no one in this capital can be worthy of her. She is destined to be the imperial concubine, not those who look glamorous, but when they enter the palace, they have to grovel like those nobles.

"Miss, the slave thinks you can't keep running into the palace like this. You should put more effort into the sixth prince, didn't you say you wanted to marry him? ”

Du Zilin, who heard Hongying's words, turned her head and slapped Hongying's face: "What do you know about this?" Did you see that I was favored by the queen of heaven and couldn't see me, so I deliberately said this? ”

Hongying touched her cheek, bowed her head and remained silent. Since she didn't know Du Zilin's heart, no matter what she did or said, it was wrong. In that case, let her be.

"What, you're secretly scolding me, do you think I don't know?" Du Zilin saw Hongying, who didn't answer, and reached out to twist the flesh on her waist.

Hongying hated red eyes, she was wrong to speak, and if she didn't say wrong, she was also wrong. No matter what, I have to be beaten or abused every day.

"Didn't you just say it well, but now you're dumb? Are you scolding me? Say, what the hell are you scolding me? If you don't say it today, don't think about a good life."

"Miss is angry, the slave really doesn't think much about it. It's just self-reflection. What Miss said is right, the slave doesn't understand anything, and I will ask Miss to give me more advice in the future" Hongying knelt in the carriage and kowtowed three times to Du Zilin.

After the perverted feeling in Du Zilin's heart was satisfied, she let go of her hand, patted it, took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped it, and then threw it at Hongying: "Wouldn't you have said this earlier?" Okay, get up, others like you have seen it, and people who don't know think I'm abusing you."

Hongying had a smile in her eyes and said, "Thank you, Miss." Miss didn't abuse the slave maid, did the slave and maid do something wrong, or did the young lady be kind-hearted and generously forgive the slave and maid."

"Now that you know, your eyes will brighten up a little in the future. Now I don't have any money, so when I go back, you go to my mother's and ask me for another thousand taels. If you enter the palace, you don't need to make a point, just a little silver, it's not enough to stuff your teeth."

Du Zilin threatened Du Ling's clan a few years ago and asked for a thousand taels of silver from her. Now there are less than one hundred taels left, but this time, she can't go and ask for it herself, let Hongying go, she believes that Hongying will have a way.

Hongying was slightly stunned when she heard this. How dare she ask for that silver, this time, she will be scolded by her wife. After thinking about it, he said: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that instead of asking for it like a lady, it is better to go directly to the young lady to ask for it." ”

Suddenly hearing the three words of the young lady, Du Zilin, who was originally closing her eyes and recuperating, instantly opened her eyes: "How do you say this?" ”

"Miss, do you think, how much silver can Madame have in recent years? In fact, if we do the math, we probably all know that she is afraid that she really can't get the money now. Miss Du Yi took more than 1,000 taels, and then lost more than 3,000 because the young lady framed Miss for stealing her jewelry, which added up to more than 5,000. The young lady asked for a thousand taels, how much is left? What's more, the lady herself also gave money and bought a house or something for the monster, and since then the two have been cleared. Instead of looking for a lady, it is better to go directly to the young lady. She didn't buy anything of the money she had taken from her wife. If you do the math, there should be a lot of silver. ”

Du Zilin was also felt to make sense when Hongying said this. Especially the fact that she was framed for stealing jewelry in the first place, it is even more hateful. In her opinion, in fact, she didn't lose it at all, and deliberately used one to frame her. The purpose is to rely on his mother's family to ask for silver.

In the past, I might have been afraid of her, and I would have some scruples. Who is afraid of anyone now, her Ling Fenfang's maiden family has also fallen, but she knows it very well. Coupled with the fact that something like that happened, it was already a great forgiveness to be able to let her continue to stay in Du Mansion.

"You're right, I have to go to her and ask for money, if not, I'll tell my eldest brother about it and let my eldest brother divorce her."

Hong Ying breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Du Zilin say this. As long as Du Zilin can deal with Ling Fenfang by herself, and she doesn't need to use him, that's fine.

Du Zilin, who returned to Du Mansion, didn't even return to her own courtyard, and came directly to Ling Fenfang and Du Zhigao's courtyard: "Sister-in-law, you come out, I have something to do, and I need your help." ”

Ling Fenfang glanced at Du Zilin, and then at Du Zhigao, then got up and walked out, looking at Du Zilin with a wary face.

"Sister-in-law, don't look at me like that, it's weird and scary. Now I have some inconvenience on my hands and want to use silver. Daddy is gone, and now you want you to spend a little. I don't want a lot, as long as I give a thousand taels. Don't tell me you don't, we all know how much money you took from your mother. If you know something, give some. If you don't know each other, then don't blame me for telling my eldest brother about this. ”

When Ling Fenfang heard this, she trembled with anger. Du Zilin is using her as a money bank, if she doesn't give it, will she threaten her?

"My sister is wrong, although I have silver, where is there as much as you think. Which of your eldest brother's clothes is not the best? Your mother hasn't given me a penny for a while, and I spent it all with my money. If my sister is really short of silver, my sister-in-law still has a hundred taels. I should lend it to my sister first, and when my sister has more money another day, it's not too late to pay me back."

When Du Zilin heard this, she exploded. No matter what Ling Fenfang says, she just doesn't give silver? It's so good, even if you give a hundred taels, you still say that you will borrow, it's really shameless, what about sending beggars?

"What that sister-in-law means, I can tell my eldest brother that your mother's family has actually declined. You're defiled out there, aren't you? ”

Ling Fenfang was not afraid of Du Zilin, and directly hooked the corners of her mouth and sneered: "If my sister wants to say it, just say it directly." This Brother Du is about to take the scientific examination, which affects his mood, but he didn't get in, and the loss is you. You must know that you are not married yet, no matter how you marry in the future, you still have to rely on your mother's family? Now don't you just see that my maternal grandfather can't do things, so you come to shout? If my sister doesn't want your eldest brother to be admitted, you just have to say it. The worst is that I will go back to my parents' house. Besides, emaciated camels are bigger than horses. No matter how bad our government is, it is much better than a businessman. Don't forget, I also have two older brothers."

After Ling Fenfang finished speaking, she shook off the embroidered handkerchief and entered the courtyard by herself, without looking at Du Zilin. It's just a daughter's family, and she dares to threaten her head and dream

Du Zilin, who didn't get the silver, was extremely depressed, but when she thought about it, she was right. No matter what happens in the future, she has to rely on her eldest brother. Now that she is favored by the Queen Mother, that's all. This can't get any benefits for her, and the Queen Mother can't spoil her for a lifetime.

"Miss, why don't we go back first. If you don't enter the palace during this time, everything will wait for the young master to finish the scientific examination? And Miss Yiyi, aren't we all waiting for the end of the scientific examination? Now the whole capital knows that she is pregnant unmarried, but she is not painful and completely fine. Isn't there a Hou Mansion to rely on? If she goes back to Fèng City, without these, see how she gets up. ”

Hongying didn't want to stay in the capital, and she didn't want to go to the palace twice in three days. This is the underworld that may lose her head at any time, and she doesn't want to go. Du Zilin, an idiot, thought it was a good place, and sent it to the door.

It's beautiful to give a few small jewelry, but how can it not be counted, she has spent more than a thousand taels in the palace so far, and she can buy as much jewelry as she can buy with just those silver.

She was sure that every time Du Zilin went to the palace to reward the silver, it ended up in the hands of Empress Dowager Ding. The palace maids and eunuchs in the palace said that now the treasury is empty, and there is no silver at all.

Du Zilin calculated, it was only a few days before the imperial examination, so she nodded and said, "Then let's do this first, and then talk about it after the exam." It doesn't take long to be horizontal and vertical, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

Du Zhigao is very busy during this time, and the exam is about to start, in addition to reading books day and night, he is preparing good pen, ink, paper and inkstone. In addition, he also went to the Hou Mansion on purpose, wanting to ask his uncle Ling Sheng to see if he could help, set up a relationship, and get the test questions.

After all, his aunt Ling Yang is the daughter of the Taishi, and if she comes forward, it will not be good enough. It's a pity that as soon as he opened his mouth, he was dismissed. After that, I wanted to go to the Hou Mansion again, but I couldn't even enter the door.

Du Yi saw that in a day, he was about to take a scientific expedition, so after a whisper in Bai Mei's ear, a trace of sarcasm flashed in his eyes. She will definitely make Du Zhigao famous in one fell swoop

In the dead of night, Bai Mei came back and said to Du Yi: "Miss, it's already done, and I'll wait to see the show right away." ”

On the ninth day of the second lunar month, Du Zhigao got up early in the morning. After bringing his own pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other things, he was escorted by the whole family and came to the Gongyuan.

"Once inside, don't be nervous, be calm, and trust that you can do it. Now check the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone first to see if there is any problem. In fact, it's okay if you don't have to bring paper, there will be it inside. You also bring this shirt, and now you are still cold and panicked. If you can't get used to the food inside, put up with it first. This is the first one, so bear with me. ”

Du Zhigao was a little upset when he heard his father's broken thoughts, this is going to go in, and he is still talking. How could he not know these things? It's just a scientific expedition, and it's not that he hasn't participated in it, otherwise how did he come to be a lifter? Now it's just a change of venue.

"Dad, I'm going in, go back. I know what you say" Du Zhigao picked up his clothes, took the basket in Du Ling's hand, and slowly walked to the gate of the Gongyuan under the eyes of everyone.

At the door, according to the custom, he checked all the things he had brought, and only when they were correct did he let them in.

Du Yi hid not far away, and when he saw this scene, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked. He is the Du family's greatest expectation, I don't know what will happen to Du Ling's and Ling Fenfang after destroying it? She was looking forward to it

Du Heng's family, there is no good person, she just wants to avenge the original owner and everything that happened to her after she came here. This debt must be repaid after all.

Du Zilin was in a very good mood, and when she saw her eldest brother's expression, she should be nine out of ten. During this time, she was all thinking about her eldest brother, and she didn't go anywhere, just thinking about waiting for her eldest brother to pass the Jinshi exam. She believes that her eldest brother should be able to get into the top three, after all, his talent is obvious to all.

If Du Yi knew Du Zilin's blind confidence in her eldest brother, I was afraid that she would laugh. This kid believes in her eldest brother too much.

"Let's go"

When Du Yi saw the scientific examination, he thought that Xiaoshuai should also be enlightened. Originally, she wanted Xiaoshuai to study in the capital, but now she can't do it at all, Xiaoshuai has to stay in Liujiazhen to study.

In the capital, it is not safe. In Fèng City, there is no stopping. Only in Liujia Village can she believe it wholeheartedly. Seeing that she is about to be four years old, it is time for a good enlightenment, and you can't follow her around, but these things will have to wait until she goes back. Now just find a temporary place for Xiaoshuai to read first.

Back at the Hou Mansion, Du Yi directly found Ling Yang's and said, "Uncle, Xiaoshuai is also four years old, it's time to enlighten." Now we will be in the capital for a while and a half, I want you to help ask the Taishi, can you accept Xiaoshuai? It wasn't long, just a month or two. ”

Taishi Yang had also done the enlightenment of Zi Yicheng and others, and it would be great if his old man came forward. All kinds of things that Xiaoshuai needs to learn in the future will be taught by the old man Taishi, and they are too good to be better than ordinary people.

Ling Yang was slightly stunned when he heard Du Yi's words. If her father agrees, Xiaoshuai will have to stay in the capital to study. But that's fine, the regent's son will need to assist the king in the future. For something as important as enlightenment, you have to have a good master.
