Speaking of what happened, Lei Xi complained that the question from his mother was too difficult for them, and the masters in the school never asked this question.

After Wu Jing asked the question just now, he was slightly stunned, and then laughed heartily while praising Lei Chen's intelligence.

"Aren't my third brother and I smart?" Xiao Xi'er said pitifully, "Obviously, I, the third brother and the eldest brother and the second brother are all mother's biological babies. ”

"Hahaha." Wu Jing also liked Xiao Xi'er's performance tightly, and reached out and pinched Xiao Xi'er's fleshy little face, "Why is Xiao Xi'er still so cute, why don't you be my daughter-in-law." ”

An unintentional mistake made Lin Xia and Lei Chen's faces stiffen slightly.

"Mr. Huang is not joking." As soon as Lei Biao entered the door, he heard Wu Jing's words, and his face didn't look good, "Xi'er is still young, and I can't bear her to leave us so soon." ”

Wu Jing's smile did not decrease, and he continued with Lei Biao's words, "It's just a joke." ”

Xi'er also asked stupidly, "What is a daughter-in-law?" ”

Lin Xia immediately hugged Lei Xi and motioned to her not to talk nonsense, lest there be any trouble.

The conversation during the banquet was all homely, Lei Biao and Lin Xia were puzzled, Wu Jing came to Lei Mansion for a private visit for no reason, but he didn't come with any purpose, which is really strange.

even stayed for dinner, and Grandpa Gao also specially instructed Shiso to prepare some light food, thinking that Lei Mansion would have some rare dishes on the table because of Yalinju, but at first glance they were ordinary dishes.

Steamed crucian carp, white-cut chicken, boiled shrimp, stir-fried lotus root, stir-fried pork slices with fungus, stir-fried cabbage, Huaishan carrot and corn soup.

Father-in-law Gao looked at it, a little aggrieved for his master, Yalinju's menu book is a thick stack, how can he make these home-cooked dishes on weekdays, knowing that the emperor is coming, and preparing it so ordinary, I am really worried about whether the emperor can eat it.

But Father-in-law Gao found that Emperor Dawu ate with relish, and even felt a little surprised, because although the table was full of ordinary home-cooked food, the taste was not the usual taste, so he used a big bowl of rice and ate a lot of dishes.

Let the father-in-law Gao who was waiting next to him be surprised.

After Wu Jing ate and drank enough, he and Lei Biao went to the study to have a secret conversation, and Gao Gonggong was not allowed to wait at the door, as if something big had happened.

"Mother, what do you say Dad and Mr. Huang are talking about?" Lei Xu looked at the closed door of the study with some concern.

Lin Xia shook his head slightly, "I don't know either." ”

After a long time, Wu Jing and Lei Biao came out of the study, and Wu Jing hurriedly left the Lei Mansion.

"Husband, what did Mr. Huang tell you?" Lin Xia looked at Lei Biao and asked.

Lei Biao stretched out his hand and grabbed Lin Xia's shoulder, "Xia'er, we're going to change back to our original surname." ”

Lin Xia was stunned, "Wu surname? ”

"Yes." Lei Biao looked at the figure that had already disappeared at the door, and his voice was deep, making it impossible to hear the joy and sorrow.

A few days later, Emperor Dawu fell ill.

The sick even the early dynasty for a few days, after which although the person was unharmed, but the imperial doctor asked Emperor Dawu to recuperate, and Emperor Dawu directly issued a holy decree, by His Royal Highness the prince as the supervisor of the country, to deal with the major affairs of the court, four scholars to assist the government, the general of the town and the general of the country to regent, in order to assist the prince.

In less than a month, Emperor Dawu suddenly went to the court and issued a holy decree, on the grounds that his dragon body was ill and it was no longer suitable to bear the burden of Jiangshan Sheji, he passed on the throne to His Royal Highness the Prince, proclaimed himself the emperor, moved to the deep palace to recuperate from the sick, did not see any foreign ministers, and did not interfere in any court affairs.

The queen mother was also named the queen mother, moved to the deep palace to take care of the emperor, and transferred the phoenix seal to the crown princess, that is, the next queen mother, and the harem was taken care of by the queen mother.

Everything fell into place.

The new emperor ascended the throne, named Emperor Wu, and issued a holy decree to seal Yalinju as the emperor's businessman, because the emperor, the queen mother and the emperor Wu loved Yalinju and gave the royal surname: Wu.

The original Lei Mansion was replaced with a new plaque, Wu Mansion. Many outsiders don't know the reason, but they only say that Yalin has become an imperial merchant and has been given a royal surname, which is a great honor; But those who know the inside story are just feelings.

Because it was a happy event, Lin Xia specially held a flower-viewing banquet in the mansion, and the dignitaries related to Yalinju received invitations.

The weather turned slightly cooler in September, and Lin Xia dressed up casually, feeling that she looked pretty good.

When Lin Xia's figure appeared, it immediately became the focus of everyone's attention, no way, the current Mrs. Wu is no longer what it used to be, although the Emperor Taishang and the Empress Dowager have abdicated, but the relationship between the new emperor and the new queen and Yalinju is also very good, and some time ago, Lin Xia's younger brother Lin Chengzu resumed his official position and became one of the new emperor's henchmen, which means that the martial arts family can still prosper with the royal family for dozens of years.

In addition to the status of the martial arts family in Beijing, more is still envious, envious of the family style of the martial arts, Lin Xia and Lei Biao have been married for many years, there is no concubine or room in the family, which man in today's society is not three wives and four concubines.

However, Wu Fu also intends to continue this family style, Wu Xu and Wu Chen are now twelve years old, and they can get married in a few years, and now is a good time to get married, but Lin Xia is more advocating free love, but in the face of the olive branches cast by many ladies, Lin Xia has already agreed to like it.

The atmosphere of the Wu Dynasty is not as strict as in other ancient times, only one of the parents is present, men and women can meet and talk, and men and women can also go out in groups to play, which is harmless, which is still the atmosphere handed down by the first generation of the Wu Dynasty in the final analysis.

So the lady who came to enjoy the flowers today also brought her son and daughter, and the daughter to be married can get acquainted with Wu Xu and Wu Chen, and this son can also be familiar with the youngest daughter of the Wu family, Wu Xi. As for Wu Yun, he was more embarrassed and was left aside by the ladies.

As the organizer of the banquet, Lin Xia smiled and invited the ladies to go to the courtyard to enjoy the flowers, as the name suggests, in the name of enjoying the flowers, poetry must be indispensable, of course, you can also dance the sword and see the heroic posture of the man's daughter.

As for the children, they are arranged in a garden not far away, from which the ladies can see the situation on the other side, but the distance is also far away, and it can also give them enough space to talk and chat, maybe they can talk about some feelings and affection.

It's not so much a cherry blossom viewing banquet as a large-scale blind date venue.

The little girl in a pink begonia Luo skirt stepped forward to talk to Wu Chen, "I heard that Brother Chen likes to make beautiful pictures the most, and the beauties are lifelike, which is almost the same as my appearance, I don't know if I am lucky enough to take a look?" ”

Wu Chen is famous for his paintings, known as the name of painting immortals, and his appearance combines the advantages of Lei Biao and Lin Xia, with long eyebrows and beautiful eyes, soft facial lines, and the corners of his lips always have a smile like a spring breeze.

has this appearance and a talent for painting, how not to let them secretly agree.

Of course, in addition to Wu Chen, many people also like Wu Xu as the eldest brother, the two brothers look nine points similar, but the two brothers give people a completely different feeling, Wu Xu usually does not smile, thin but tight lips have never outlined a trace of amplitude, there is a shallow scar on the right eyebrow, it is a small flaw on this handsome face, usually prefers dark clothes, because he has begun to take over the affairs of Yalinju at a young age, he is calm and old-fashioned, and his only hobby is horseback riding.

And most importantly, unlike other rich children, these two brothers rarely visit the land of fireworks, and there are no concubines or concubines in the house, and the two brothers have gradually taken over the affairs of Yalinju, the paper mill, and the glass factory, which will definitely belong to them in the future. No emotional entanglements, full of wealth, handsome appearance, great figure, except for no interest in the career, there are almost no shortcomings.

Wu Chen replied with a faint smile, "I don't know the girl's name, do I have the honor to paint a picture for the girl?" As he spoke, he summoned the maid to the study and took out his drawing paper and colored ink, and prepared to paint the woman in front of him on the spot.

"The little girl's surname is Fang ......" The little girl's face was like a red apple, and she replied delicately.

As soon as these words came out, the girls who didn't say hello just now because they were shy tightened their veils, and their hearts were full of jealousy.

"Oh? The concubine of the Ministry of Rites' family? A hint of uncertainty flashed in Wu Chen's eyes, he was already familiar with the network in Beijing.

The wife of the waiter of the Ministry of Rites offended his mother before, but he still remembers.

"Yes, Brother Chen." The little girl thought that he had already paid attention to herself, and she was even happier in her heart, thinking that if Wu Chen gave her the painting well, then she would embroider a purse and send it back when she went back, and the gifts were still exchanged, maybe in the future, Wu Chen would come to the door to ask for marriage, and she would be able to marry him...... Qin Se and Ming, there are no concubines competing for favor, and they enjoy the favor of their husbands alone......

It was only at a moment, and the concubine of the Rite Squire family had already thought of the names of the children she and Wu Chen would have born in the future.

Wu Xu glanced at the second brother with a warm smile, and only sighed slightly.

Wu Chen has been painting since he was a child, and the speed of painting is also getting faster and faster, and it only took half an hour for this beauty picture to be freshly baked.

Everyone gathered around to watch, but they all covered their mouths and snickered.

The woman of the waiter's family in the Ministry of Rites stepped forward to take a look, and found that the flowers on the painting were in full bloom, red and gorgeous, and the woman in the flowers was pretty, and the pink begonia color dress was blown by the wind, which was the shadow of a beauty; But when I saw the face, the face was as big as a plate, the eyes were slender, and the face was still red like a monkey's buttocks.

For a while, she was annoyed and angry, but Wu Chen had a lot of money with the royal family, so she didn't dare to get angry at will, so she only suppressed her anger and said softly: "Brother Chen, where is me in your painting?" ”

I saw him purse the corners of his lips, "The paintings I make are all the scenes I see and the people I see, in other words, Sister Fang on the painting is Sister Fang in my eyes." How is it, does Sister Fang like it? ”

The words fell, and the laughter around them became even worse.

"I—I like it tight." The young lady of the Rite Department said through gritted teeth.

Hearing the answer, Wu Chen smiled even more happily, "That's good, I'll let Sister Fang frame it, and I'll bring it back to the house for you later to hang it, and watch this painting every day." There is a saying that each other is born from the heart, maybe Sister Fang will look at it for a long time, and it will be exactly the same as the painting. ”
