Remember [Marshmallow] for a second. ] to provide you with wonderful reading.
Xu Siyu said respectfully: ...... My father-in-law wrote to my husband and asked me when I would leave and if I could get to Yenching earlier, "let me visit his good friend Mr. Wuyue... When the gentleman heard this, he let me come back early......"
"Mr. Wuyue? Xu Lingyi pondered, "What person?" "This person's surname is Hong, and he is a teacher of Yongqing County. Although he is only a lifter, he is close friends with Shuntian Mansion Yin, Prince Shin of the Ministry of Rites......" Xu Siyu stopped here.
Xu Lingyi didn't ask anymore, nodded and said, "This matter is really not good for correspondence......" and then changed the topic, "Where do you live?" Did you have dinner? Or move in! It's also a little more convenient here......
They packed a yard, and they were guards, maids, maids, and mothers-in-law, and the wing room on the west side was still empty, not only had a place, convenient, but also safe.
"You and Mother eat, I've already used it." Xu Siyu said with a smile, and asked the little maid to send a message to Mozhu and moved her luggage.
Eleven Niang and Xu Siyu said a few words, "Yingying is very cute now, she can walk by herself.... Something like that, the luggage was sent over, and Xu Siyu saw that it was not early, got up and said goodbye.
"Mr. Wuyue's matter, is there something strange that I don't understand? Eleven Niang asked Xu Lingyi in a low voice.
Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound.
Eleven Niang thought he didn't want to answer.
Who knew that he would sleep in a quilt at night" but he whispered: "Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second." The examiner's liking "directly affects the results of the township examination." Master Xiang asked Brother Yu to visit Mr. Wuyue, most likely because he wanted to know the examiner's preferences through Mr. Wuyue. This kind of thing, but it can only be understood but not explicitly ......
Shi Niang nodded slightly, and said: "I remember, Lord Wang Zixin seems to be the matchmaker ............ of Brother Zhen's daughter-in-law", and Jiang Song is also from the imperial examination, so I am afraid that the meaning of Lord Xiang's words has long been known.
"It's like you want to settle down and be a soldier. Don't settle those meritorious families. I'm afraid that there will be constant trouble. If you can get the guidance of the elders in the family for the imperial examination, you will have more opportunities than ordinary people. Xu Lingyi leaned over with a smile and blew out the lamp, "I have to sit in the carriage for a day tomorrow, you can sleep more." Nourish the Spirit......
Eleven Niang said "um..." and closed her eyes.
I just slept all afternoon, and I still feel sleepy. Counting the little sheep, his heart flew to Brother Jin, who had just broken up.
Leaving my father for the first time, I wonder if he will be afraid? What is he doing at this time? Is it already asleep, or is she like her thinking about her relatives who are drifting apart?
Thinking about it like this, she felt even less sleepy.
Surrounded by a long, even inhalation.
Eleven Niang turned over slightly.
Xu Lingyi was awakened.
"Thinking about Brother Jin? β¦β¦
Eleven Niang was slightly stunned: "Didn't Master Hou sleep either?" Xu Lingyi didn't make a sound" after a while, "They should anchor in Zhangjiawan tonight, and they can go to Tianjin tomorrow." β¦β
In the dark, Eleven Niang smiled slightly and shook Xu Lingyi's hand.
β¦β¦γ The next day, the brothers met, and there was another contract, and then Eleven Niang took the car, and Xu Lingyi's father and son rode horses" and returned to the lotus together.
Mrs. Tai was unhappy about Brother Jin'er's departure, and she couldn't help but smile when she heard the words. That night, three tables were held at Mrs. Tai's and a lively meal was eaten.
Relatives saluted each other, friends got together, and the Xu brothers also had a private drink. By the time Xu Siyu went to visit Mr. Wuyue, it was already seven or eight days later.
Eleven Niang received a letter from Brother Jin.
"How? How? Read it to me! Mrs. Tai thought that her eyes were not good, so she didn't wait for Du's mother to open the box with glasses. I can't wait to urge Eleven Niang to read it to her.
"Grandmother's knees: My eldest uncle and I have now traveled to Cangzhou, and my eldest brother-in-law has brought my eldest sister and two nephews when I heard this. An Jing is lively and cute, An Xu is smart and smart, the last time I met, one was still naΓ―ve and rude, and the other couldn't speak........."
He also wrote an identical letter to Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang, but the beginning was changed to, "Parents are on their knees and respectful...".
"Ouch. You've picked up the important thoughts! ..., Mrs. Tai interrupted Eleven Niang's words.
Eleven Niang smiled and summarized Brother Jin'er's letter: "...... said that he met Sister Zhen and his eldest aunt, and went to visit Shao's house, "I met Mrs. Shao, and my aunt also took him to the most famous martial arts hall in Cangzhou." They stayed in Cangzhou for two days. Now on our way to Texas......
Mrs. Tai listened to it and breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good...... As he spoke, he looked pensive.
Eleven Niang didn't know what it meant, and waited quietly.
After a long while, Mrs. Tai suddenly said, "I remember, I remember." The old man shouted to Du's mother, "Don't you have a niece who married in Texas and is a servant?" "Looks excited.
"Mrs. Tai has a really good memory...... "Mother Du smiled, "It's because of the grace of the Hou Ye that I got such a good errand." This year, I also came to greet you and your wife during the Chinese New Year. Because there are many people in the family, she will kowtow to you and your wife in the courtyard with her mother......" "I didn't mean this! "I mean, if you write him a letter, you will say that I mean it, and let him go on the boat to see Brother Jin." This one of us is on a boat, and I don't know if I have lost weight? Is it good to eat? β¦β
Du's mother smiled and said, "Yes...".
Eleven Niang hurriedly stopped her and smiled at Mrs. Tai: "Mother, this letter was written three days ago, and when the person who delivered the letter arrived, I am afraid that Brother Jin would have left Texas a long time ago."
Mrs. Tai listened with discouragement.
Du's mother hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. I wrote a letter to send it to someone, and he knew that the sixth young master was passing by Texas, and "he would definitely get on the boat and go to the big man......
Mrs. Tai cheered up again: "You go and write." I asked the person to send you a letter, and ...... Du's mother left.
Mrs. Tai asked Xu Hulai: "He said that he wanted to go to Mr. to listen to the lecture and make a fuss, did he go?" Did the gentleman take him? ..., while asking, he took out a box with carved red lacquered begonia flowers from the small drawer of the kang table and put the letter in.
"Go! Eleven Niang smiled, "That gentleman heard that he was introduced by Master Xiang, and he was a student of Mr. Jiang, so he was very polite, and he left Brother Yu at home that night." Mo Zhu didn't expect it, and was busy setting up the pawnshop for Brother Yu'er. and sent the little servant back to get his clothes. Brother Yu's daughter-in-law just sent people away......"
Mrs. Tai said: "Mr. Wuyue, I'm afraid I have to thank you!" β¦β
Eleven Niang smiled: "I let Chang Xuezhi, the youngest son of Chang Jiuhe who took care of Zhuangzi for me, he is now a small steward in the department, and he went to Yongqing County with Brother Yu'er." also brought a picture of "Snow Tree and Cold Birds" by Li Di of the former dynasty......
Mrs. Tai nodded.
The second lady came over: "I heard that Brother Yu'er is resting in Yongqing?" β¦β
Eleven Niang told the scene.
"Since it is a tried-and-true teaching, I think it is better to send some calligraphy and paintings of famous masters of the previous dynasty to make a gift......," the second lady said, "This also looks more noble......
"Eleven Niang has already sent someone to bring it over...... Mrs. Tai smiled, patted the cushion beside her, and motioned to sit beside her, "Brother Jin'er has written to me!." , and took out the letter" "Look! β¦β
It's like a child getting a delicious candy" not only likes it, but also has a bit of a show-off taste.
The second lady was a little surprised and took it with a smile.
Mrs. Tai leaned over: "You read!" "I look like I want to hear it again."
The second lady read it with a smile.
Mrs. Tai looked like she had eaten ginseng fruit, and she looked very comfortable: "You say, where has he gone now?" He put the letter back into the box.
"It should be in Linqing. The second lady muttered, "but it's hard to say. If you don't stay in Linqing, maybe you will get to Liaocheng! β¦β
Mrs. Tai believed in the judgment of the second lady very much, and discussed with the second lady every day where Brother Jin had gone" and then looked forward to Brother Jin'er's letter.
Eleven Niang looked at it and instructed the person who came back to deliver the letter: "...... Everywhere I went, I wrote a letter to Mrs. Tai. βγ
Originally, he only stayed in Linqing and Liaocheng to write back, but gradually, as long as there was a place where the ship was moored, he would write back. If nothing else, the more you write the letter, the better. The messenger smiled: "...... Uncle urged the sixth young master to write letters every day. I also have to practice three pages of big characters and read one page of the book......"
I didn't expect such a harvest.
Mrs. Tai smiled: "Our uncle, but Shu Jishi."
The people sitting next to him also laughed.
Mrs. Tai talked about Luo Zhenxing: "...... Really attentive. Everywhere I go, I have to take my brother out to play. Brother Jin said it last time. said that his uncle was going to take him to Quzhuo to worship Confucius Temple! It's not just a place that anyone can go to. Mrs. Tai worried, "I don't know if I have gone or not?" β¦β
"You can wait patiently for a few more days......," the second lady smiled and comforted Mrs. Tai, "Whether you go or not, Brother Jin will write to tell you." β
"That's right! Mrs. Tai laughed when she heard this, "He told me about the last time he went to Guangyue Tower with his uncle and was stolen from his purse. Not to mention such a major event as worshipping the Temple of Confucius. β¦β
It's the end of July in the blink of an eye. Everyone's attention was on Xu Siyu, who was about to take the exam.
Mrs. Tai and the second lady went to Xiangguo Temple, Baiyun Temple, Ciyuan Temple, and Wenchang Pavilion to offer incense, and Eleven Niang and Xiang gave Xu Siyu to prepare clothes, pen and ink, baskets, examination curtains and other things for the next exam. On the first day of August, "Xu Siqin's two brothers rushed over early in the morning and sent him to the examination room with Xu Sizhen and Xu Sijie. I met Fang Ji halfway, and a few talked and laughed and went to the exam. After the three exams were completed, Xu Sijie immediately asked Xu Siyu for teaching.
"Mr. Zhao gave you the enlightenment. Mr. Chang will guide you in your career. How dare I get an axe in front of Lu Ban......" Xu Siyu said with a smile, "However, you have to ask me what I should pay attention to in the next exam." I have a lot to say to you......
"Then second brother, tell me about it...... This is also what Xu Sijie will experience in the future, and he is naturally very concerned.
Xu Siyu left home as a young man, and the relationship with Xu Huzhen and Xu Sijie was not intimate enough. It may be that going out can better understand the importance of family, and Xu Siyu also attaches great importance to the opportunity to get closer to the friendship between brothers, and frankly tells Xu Siyu about the gains and losses of his several exams.
Xu Sijie listened to it and admired Xu Sijie.
When he participated in the hospital examination, Mr. Chang explained everything to him, but he didn't expect that when Xu Siyu participated in the hospital examination, Mr. Jiang didn't say more than a word to Xu Siyu. In this way, Xu Siyu also took the Xiucai exam.
However, the conversation between the two did not last long - the results of the county exam came out in mid-August, and Xu Siyu took the fourth place in the exam.
