The osmanthus is fragrant, and the cool breeze is refreshing.

A few days later, the dragon and tiger list was posted outside the Zhengyang Gate.

Yao's family sent a little maid to see the list early, and Shen Yanyong also ordered someone to go, even the old marquis did not go out, but stayed at home and waited for news.

Shen Qiuqi and the Xie family's dirty things really annoyed him, he went out frequently a few days ago, in fact, he was already helping his granddaughters see each other, who knew that he couldn't hold his breath. Especially the eight girls, what happened in the princess's mansion, her temper was not collected at all, and her heart was getting higher and higher!

The old man was looking forward to it, but who knew that the little guy who came back didn't look very good, needless to say, it must be no name on the list.

The two of the Shen family failed to pass the exam, and the eldest son of the Wang family, who was regarded as the lifeblood of the Pan family, also fell off the list, but it was Wang Chengzhu, the second son of the Wang family who behaved cowardly, who was selected, although the ranking was not very high, he was finally successful.

Shen Qiutan, who heard the news, couldn't help but think deeply, the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this Wang Chengzhu was a hidden person, not only could he avoid the rotten peach blossoms and pretend to be cowardly in front of his mother-in-law, but he could also be on the list.

It's a pity that Sister Qiumei in the second room missed a good marriage.

However, after this incident, Shen Qiutan knew that the people in this house were powerful, so she couldn't control the affairs of the powerful people, so it was important to take her younger brother back first.

…………

On this day, Shen Qiutan was coaxing his younger brother to sleep, when he heard Mu Xiang come to report that his uncle had arrived in Beijing, and he thought that he would come to the door soon.

Shen Qiutan was overjoyed in his heart, it's good to come!

She patted her younger brother gently, and saw that her younger brother was sleeping with his small mouth open and in the shape of a "big", but she suddenly felt a little homesick in her heart.

The Shen family bullied her and insulted her, and she will always have a day when she retaliates with a tooth for a tooth, because she no longer treats those people as relatives, but her uncle is what she has been looking forward to for a long time.

I hope that the memories in the dream are not biased, and I hope that she and her brother still have real relatives to rely on.

At the moment of Shen Shi, Agarwood House was already preparing for dinner, but he saw a mother-in-law from Yannian Courtyard hurriedly come to pay tribute, saying that the old marquis had been invited.

Shen Qiutan's heart moved, could it be that his uncle had already come?

She gave Red Bean a look.

Hongdou hurriedly and earnestly pulled the mother-in-law who reported the news and said, "Isn't this Mother Hong?" It's really a rare guest, Xiaogua quickly move a small pestle. ”

She helped Mrs. Hong sit down, and served a cup of tea: "Mom, rest first, it's not too late to eat tea!" ”

"Ouch, where can the old woman rest......" Although he said this, he enjoyed the hospitality of red beans very much, and Bai Zhi handed over a purse embroidered with red auspicious clouds on the bottom of Dailan: "Mother Hong, look at this craftsmanship, is this craft okay?" ”

Hong Pozi took the purse, pinched the broken silver inside, and said with a smile: "Naturally, it is a good craft!" He smiled and said to Shen Qiutan: "Girl, clean up!" It's a good thing that your uncle is here! ”

"Thank you, Mom!" Shen Qiutan's joy swelled, and he thought that his uncle would repair it for one night first, and he would come to the door tomorrow!

She happily changed her clothes, thought about it and told Peach Blossom to dress her brother too, and personally hugged her brother and walked to Yannian Courtyard.

The sky was not yet dark, the night breeze was slightly cool, and Shen Qiutan's heart was on fire.

Xiao Changzhen lay in his sister's arms, babbling and not knowing what to say, he slept all afternoon, and he was very energetic at this time.

"Girl, please come in!" Mrs. Hong thoughtfully opened the curtain.

With money in his hand, Shen Qiutan was also generous. There is no one who can't get along with silver, and this Jingping Marquis Mansion is not monolithic, with silver money as a "pioneer", Shen Qiutan is already much better walking than when he first returned to the house, at least he is much more well-informed.

She kissed her brother's chubby hand: "Maomao, we are going to see my uncle, are you happy?" ”

Xiao Changzhen thought that his sister was playing a game with him, and giggled, and the crisp and immature voice came out, Shen Qiutan just stepped in with one foot, and saw a middle-aged man in his thirties and forties looking at him and his younger brother excitedly.

"You...... Is it an uncle? ”

"Hey! She has grown into a big girl! Chen Derun wore a bamboo-blue double-hooked cloud-patterned Shu brocade robe, with a loud voice, a square face and a wide forehead, looking very loyal and honest, obviously a happy tone, but the corners of his eyes were a little moist.

"Good boy, come on in!"

Shen Qiutan hurriedly entered the main hall, and when he saw where the old marquis was sitting, the corners of his mouth were smiling, and Shen Yanhai and Shen Yanyong also sat with them at home, and two teenagers, one older and one younger, followed behind Chen Derun.

Shen Qiutan hugged his younger brother and greeted everyone in the Shen family slightly, and handed over his younger brother to Peach Blossom, and gave Chen Derun a big gift in a dignified manner.

The old marquis looked at it with a smile, and Chen Derun said excitedly: "The last time I saw you, you were only four years old, and you were so old in a blink of an eye!" Good, good, good! ”

Shen Qiutan pursed his lips and smiled, his uncle and mother are not the same mother, but in his memory, every year in Layueli, his uncle would personally come to the capital from Guangling to give New Year's gifts, and he was very good to his mother and himself. Originally, these were just what he saw in his "dream", and Shen Qiutan was also afraid that his memory would be deviated, so he didn't let go of his hanging heart until he saw his uncle himself at this moment.

Chen Derun pulled the two teenagers behind him and introduced: "This is your eldest cousin, the big name has been changed to Yanying, and the shorter one is your cousin, called Yanfang." ”

Then another salute was made.

Chen Derun took Xiao Changzhen from the nurse's hand, blinked his eyes and held back tears, and couldn't help but sigh: "You look like your father, Mao Mao is more like your mother......"

"Exactly! Uncle has worked hard all the way, sit down and drink a cup of tea to moisten your throat! ”

Shen Yanhai said: "In the end, it's a niece, when this uncle comes, he can't even take care of your grandfather and uncle." ”

Shen Qiutan's face condensed slightly, and then he smiled: "The second uncle is majestic, where does the niece dare to be presumptuous." ”

"You ......" said this, Shen Yanhai couldn't help but want to teach a lesson again, but the old marquis coughed lightly, and he couldn't help it.

Chen Derun's eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't speak.

Shen Yanyong smiled and said haha: "Brother Chen came early this year, did the journey go smoothly?" ”

The old marquis's heart moved, he wanted to ask this for a long time, in previous years, when the third daughter-in-law Chen was still in Beijing, this Chen Derun only came in the wax moon, how could it be a few months earlier this year?

Chen Derun hugged the soft little Changzhen, and pressed his two little fat hands that wanted to grab his beard before saying: "First, I heard that Mao Mao and Mao Mao are back, and secondly, it is also for my two unsuccessful sons." ”

Of course, the real reason is because Shen Qiutan went to the letter, and he asked about his sister's dowry directly, which shows that Yan Qiu is not at peace in the mansion.

When her mother found out, she urged her to leave early, so that she could visit the famous teacher's academy for her two children, and she could also take care of the children left behind by her sister.

"Brother Chen, but you want to find a way to the academy for the two little sons?" Shen Yanyong asked, he was proud in his heart, if this is the case, there are still many places for the Chen family to use the Shen family, and he doesn't worry that the private treasury of his mother and daughter-in-law will not be filled again.

He waited for Chen Derun to show embarrassment and asked the Shen family for help, but Chen Derun just nodded, and then offered his farewell: "Old Marquis, in two days, I will pick up Di and Mao Mao to light a lantern for their father and mother, and ask the old Marquis for permission." ”

"It's nature." The old marquis also waited for Chen Derun to ask for help, who knew that he would be so light-hearted, could it be that he had already found a way?

But the Shen family needs the Chen family's silver.

He said attentively: "Why should the virtuous nephew be in a hurry, there are not many other things in this Jingping Marquis Mansion, but there are a lot of houses, if you don't dislike it, you can live in the mansion with peace of mind, so that Ling Lang and my two grandchildren can discuss their knowledge." ”
