Chapter 377
Sanniang looked at Yingge, who was confused, and said softly: "Yingge, you already knew the truth before you entered Beijing, at that time, if you didn't want to enter Beijing, you could go to your grandmother and explain everything to her, but you still came in the end, why is this?" β
Yingge closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly. Speaking of which, although she and Sanniang are not similar in appearance, their temperament is somewhat similar, especially when they are frowning and silent.
It's just that the two of them rarely make this look in front of outsiders on weekdays, so no one notices. That is, when Wang Zheng first saw Yingge, he said that he had seen Yingge a little kindly.
"This matter, Mrs. Wang San has been hiding from the old lady from beginning to end, and only my grandmother knows about the Zhao family. Whether it's Mrs. Wang or anyone else connected with it, they hope it never happened, right? Even if I did, what could I do? The old lady is already old, and the Wang family ...... The Wang family is too far away from me. β
Sanniang listened to Yingge and whispered, she still called Mama Zeng a rented mother, and called Liu an old lady and Zhao a third lady. She actually has some resentment in her heart.
"A century-old family, a hairpin family, it sounds really enviable." Yingge looked at Sanniang and smiled, "But, Third Miss, you may not have lived all these years, okay?" β
Sanniang also lowered her head and smiled: "Yes, before coming to the capital, my brother and I really didn't have a good time." Even the minions of the Wang family were able to bully us. β
Yingge nodded: "In comparison, I'm fine at Zhao's house." My grandmother was the most trusted grandmother by the old lady's side, and I followed suit. Even the eldest lady of the Zhao family can't bully me. β
The two were speechless for a while.
"Speaking of which. I don't seem to have anything to be reluctant to. But...... I still want to go to Beijing to have a look, and I don't know what I'm here for. I just want to come. Mama Tang's nephew, it sounds like I'm really climbing high, but I don't want to ...... before I think about it" Yingge's voice is soft.
"However, if you enter the palace, it will not be easy to come out again." Sanniang frowned, "If you want, I can ask Yue'e for you." Even if I can't do anything now, I can figure out how to do it later......"
"No need." Before Sanniang finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yingge. Sanniang looked at Yingge and found that she was gently tightening her lips. There was a little stubbornness in his eyes.
Sanniang suddenly remembered that this was also a proud girl, even though she had been raised as a domestic servant for more than ten years. What I just said might have hurt her.
Yes, counting it, Yingge is her sister, the eldest daughter of the third room of the Wang family. What qualifications does she, who is a sister, have to sympathize with her? Thinking of this, Sanniang stopped talking.
"Thank you for your kindness...... Yingge also felt that her refusal was too stiff, and her voice slowed down: "Mrs. General." Miss Yue's temperament is much better than it was a few years ago. But you may not be able to help me. I'm measured, so you don't care. β
When Sanniang heard this, she had no choice but to do it. She just wanted to give Yingge some help within her ability. If Yingge didn't like it, she wouldn't be reluctant. If you really want to talk about it, Yingge, as the sister of this body, is actually far from being as close as Wang Jing and Sanniang. They weren't good enough to be sideways.
"Sister Akeβare you in there?" Wei Yunying's voice suddenly remembered outside.
Sanniang came back to her senses and nodded at Yingge: "I understand, but if there is a place where I need help, as long as I can do it, I will help you." β
Bai Ying, who was outside, heard Wei Yunying's voice and had already answered through the door.
Yingge glanced at Sanniang seriously: "Thank you, Mrs. General." β
Sanniang smiled, turned around and walked out.
opened the door, Wei Yunying and Wei Yue'e were at the door.
Wei Yue'e was a little surprised when she saw Yingge come out with Sanniang.
Sanniang said: "Madam asked Yingge to accompany me to the clean room, and I borrowed your person, I'm really sorry." β
Wei Yue'e glanced at Yingge and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, I'm just so stingy?" If you like it, you can give it to you. I remember a few years ago, you asked me for a warbler's song. β
Wei Yunying looked at this and then at that with some curiosity, and finally fixed his curious gaze on Yingge.
Sanniang remained silent: "Yes, it's a pity that Yingge still likes to follow you." I think that even after a few years, Yingge's decision should not have changed. Why should I be so others to be this bad guy? β
Wei Yue'e smiled when she heard this, Yingge's willingness to follow her instead of Sanniang was naturally a matter that made her have face, so her attitude towards Yingge became more and more soft: "Madame is still waiting for you to reply, you can go." Since you are following me, I will not wronged you, and you should decide this matter yourself. β
Yingge bowed her head and said yes, glanced at Sanniang again, and then turned around and left.
******
Not a few days after Sanniang came back from the Wei family's courtyard, she got the news that the show girls who entered Beijing this year had been arranged to enter the palace one after another. Wei Yue'e is also among the group of show girls who entered the palace.
Yingge didn't choose to marry Mama Tang's nephew in the end, and she entered the palace as Wei Yue'e's personal maid.
Although there is only a wall inside and outside the palace, they are actually two worlds. It's impossible for Sanniang to meddle in Yingge's affairs again,
Sanniang thought, Yingge is literate and self-respecting, maybe she didn't realize it herself, she was actually a woman who was too proud, which could be known when she dealt with the eldest young master of the Zhao family at the beginning.
Maybe she couldn't accept this big joke that fate played on her, so she decided to go to the palace, after all, there, even if she was still a slave, the only people who could control her fate were those who stood at the top of this dynasty.
And these people can not only control the fate of her little slave, but also the fate of those noble princes and ministers, women and wives.
In this case, is the gap between her and her original identity or with these young ladies of them smaller?
This spring is destined to be busy.
The ninth day of the second month is the day of the Tribute Yuan Examination of the Ministry of Rites.
This year, the Wang family also had children from the clan participate in the examination, but Wang Jing and Wang Ji were not yet ready to participate in the examination. Half of the children who study in the official school in Beijing will be able to directly enter the Gongyuan to become Gongsheng in the future, and they do not need to take the township examination to obtain the qualification for the examination.
According to the rules, officials above the third rank of Beijing officials can sprout a son to enter the Gongyuan and become a tribute student. Wang Dong now only has one son, Wang Jing, so Wang Dong can enter the Gongyuan after staying in the official school for another year.
Wang Ji, Wang Zhang and Wang Rui, Wang Zhang had already obtained the qualification of Xiucai with a low score that year, because the results were just on the edge and not outstanding, so they did not attract Sun's attention. Wang Rui and Wang Ji have not yet obtained the qualifications of students.
In addition to the children of the Wang family, there were also Yuan Niang's Xianggong Bai Yusheng and Wang Qi's Xianggong Cen Hai who participated in the examination this time.
There will be three trials, which will last until February 15.
The future pillars of these countries were either full of confidence or panic when they came into the tribute, and when they came out, they were either like frosted eggplants or like birds out of the cage. It's just that even the cheerful little birds have bloodshot eyes.
On the day of the release of the list, Sa Niang specially sent someone to Wenjiayuan to listen to the news.
It wasn't until 10 o'clock in the afternoon that news came.
"Young lady, Niu Gongzi has won the Huiyuan." Bai Guo, who was sent to inquire about the news, said happily as soon as he came in.
Sanniang was overjoyed when she heard this: "What about the eldest brother-in-law?" β
Bai Guo's face fell: "Auntie, I didn't pass the test." β
Sanniang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I heard that most of the people who go to the tribute courtyard every year are seventy or eighty." The eldest brother-in-law is still young, so he will take the test in the future. β
"Those who reported the good news, I heard that Niu Gongzi was the uncle of the Wang family, and he also reported the good news to the Wen family. Wen Jiayuan originally thought that the eldest aunt had been hit, but later found out that it was another aunt. Bai Guo stuck out her tongue, "But the old lady still happily gave the red envelope." β
Sanniang thought about it, and the situation was indeed a little embarrassing. Those newspapers are just trying to get more red envelopes, but they have come up with this kind of oolong.
After the examination, it is the temple examination on the first day of the first month of March, that is, the examination that determines the ranking.
Before the first day of March, Mrs. Wang and the Sun family were about to leave for Shandong.
Mrs. Wang's itinerary dragged on for a month or two, and in the past two months, he enriched his harem with several superb beauties, and it can be said that he gained a lot from entering Beijing this time.
Sanniang went to Wenjiayuan on this day.
Old lady Wang is still the same, with a sturdy body and a red face. Sun was already full of black hair, wrinkled, and thin.
Thinking of the Sun family who was envied by young people when she first came to this world, Sanniang couldn't help but sigh.
Sun has always paid attention to her appearance, and I heard that now, there are no mirrors in her room.
Xue brought Siniang over, but Erniang did not appear, she said she was sick.
Sanniang also had no way to think about what kind of scene the Sun family and Erniang would be when they met.
Siniang looked like she was lost and depressed, she was only fourteen years old, and she was also haggard, and her face was as white as paper.
When she returns to Shandong this time, I am afraid that her marriage will still have to obey the arrangement of the Jin family. A few years ago, she tried her best to even ruin the other girl's original marriage to push out the family business, but now it seems that she is really not blessed.
So, it's hard to say about things in this world.
Sanniang and the juniors stepped forward to kowtow to Mrs. Wang and the Sun family, and then the Li family personally led the juniors to send their carriage out of the house. (To be continued)
