Chapter 80: The Name Falls to Sun Mountain
Shaohua didn't know why Si Yan's name fell to Sun Mountain, and Liu would cry all night, and there were thousands of people who fell off the list every time, and Si Yan was not bad. Besides, since the autumn season, Si Yan has been a hanger, although he usually doesn't study much, but for some reason he can be admitted to the laurel list, it doesn't mean that his luck can be good enough to be on the list again.
Originally, he wanted to follow along, but Ling saw that her hands were tied with gauze, and it was a problem to even take something, so he ordered Wanhua to take her back to Biwuxuan.
"What are you going to do, I'm afraid that A-Niang will scold you for not enough." Wanhua was displeased with Shaohua's fun.
"What the third sister said is that the fifth sister has an injury on your hand now, so it's better to stay in the house." Jinhua's tone was a little sour, "If there is a scar on your hand, or something hurt, you can't play the pipa anymore, it's a pity." ”
Wanhua hurriedly took a sip, "Bah, bah, don't talk nonsense!" ”
Jinhua pursed her lips, glanced at Shaohua, and saw her absentmindedly looking at her hands, and couldn't help but feel a little proud in her heart.
In Jinhua's view, Shaohua is just touted because he can write a hand of calligraphy and play the pipa, and the two just hit Mama Rong's favorite. And no matter how good Li Xunzhuo is to her, it is only because of debt, when it comes to poetry, calligraphy, knowledge, needlework, and embroidery, Shaohua is not her opponent at all. Now no matter what the reason is, she hurts her hand, anyway, she doesn't have to show her talent, which is undoubtedly a great thing for Jinhua.
"Wu Niang, don't worry, as long as you take care of it, it will be fine soon, and it's not a serious injury." Wanhua looked at her stunned appearance, thinking that she was frightened by Jinhua, and opened her mouth to comfort. Although Ling Shi hit several times, his attack was not heavy, but Shaohua's skin was thin and thick, red, and it was just scary to look at. I don't know who bandaged it like this, Li Xunzhuo obviously just asked her to come over today and pretend to be pitiful last night and admit her mistake.
The Ling family loves face and has special compassion for the weak, so as long as you don't fight her hard and lose her face, a few nice words can coax her into a daze.
"I'm not worried." Shaohua raised his head and looked at Wanhua blankly.
"Then why do you want to be so engrossed?" Wanhua frowned.
"I'm thinking, if the fourth brother can't pass the exam, won't the Liu family marry Sister Yansui?" Shaohua said the question that puzzled him.
"It should ...... No way. Wanhua was also stunned, it stands to reason that the Liu and Li families are already married, not to mention that Si Yan and Yan Sui are in love. It is completely natural for the two to get married, but it is only a matter of time.
"Why did Nabohm cry all night, it seemed to be very serious?" Shaohua looked puzzled.
"Maybe it's because the fourth brother can't pass the exam." Jinhua said slowly, "Now that the uncle and the eldest brother are officials in the same dynasty, and the eldest brother is the champion of the three yuan and the first, Bohm doesn't mention how beautiful his face is, and he has to walk in the wind." The fourth brother is unstable on weekdays, but in the end, he followed his uncle, and he saved a belly of ink since he came out of his mother's womb. Bohm must have thought that the fourth brother would be on the gold list again this time, so he went everywhere proudly, but she couldn't pass the exam, so she naturally felt sad. ”
Jinhua's analysis was reasonable and well-founded, which made Wanhua nod frequently. Indeed, the Liu family always has a feeling of superiority in the Li family. The husband is capable and the son is promising, which is already a great thing for a woman, so Liu thinks that he is better than the other two concubines. Li Sinian is no longer angry, but he is just an heir, and the head of the three-room house died of illness, leaving orphans and widows, she is not at ease at all.
And although the Ling family said that he gave birth to a Si Mo, Si Mo was still young and did not become a climate, and the first three ladies had not yet married. The little lady who didn't allow Langjun didn't have a status at home, if it weren't for Li Gelao's insistence that they go to school, the Liu family wouldn't have paid attention to them.
Of course, some people say that the Liu family has complaints about the Ling family because of the disappearance of Liuniang, and as the eldest daughter-in-law, she has no right to take care of the family.
In any case, the Liu family is indeed the most beautiful among the three concubines of the Li family.
But the scenery has been too long, and it will be very sad to suddenly encounter ups and downs.
Liu cried so much that his whole body was weak, and he lay on the bed sickly, staring at the top of the bed in a daze with his eyes. Xin Zixuan walked in, and felt uncomfortable looking at her like this, so she took the stew from the maid next to her and walked over lightly.
"A-Niang, you haven't eaten anything in the morning, why don't you drink some soup first." Xin Zixuan brought the soup cup over, and Liu suddenly sat up straight, and swept a cup of Dendrobium bamboo fungus black chicken soup to the ground with a wave of his hand. The spilled soup splashed Xin Zixuan's hand, and it immediately became red and swollen, and she looked down at the broken pottery cup, and she called the maid to clean the ground. endured the pain and asked Liu: "Auntie, you're not hot, are you?" ”
"Get out! I don't need you to pretend! Liu glared at Xin Zixuan angrily as if he saw a feud.
Being cursed like this by Liu, Xin Zixuan's face turned pale. She pursed her lips, her chest rose and fell violently, she gasped for a while, stabilized her mind, looked at Liu's eyes and said, "A-Niang, I am here to serve you sincerely, if you don't like this soup, I will let you change it." As he spoke, he blessed Liu's body, turned around and left.
Liu Shi saw that her face was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not angry when she spoke ill of her, but he was even more annoyed in his heart. "I don't need you, you don't want to set foot in my house."
Xin Zixuan's steps to leave stopped, asked the people around her to retreat, and walked back to Liu's by herself. Looking at the ten-year-old woman in front of her, Xin Zixuan felt a little embarrassed in her heart, she was just a mother who was worried about her son's hard work. And this person is still the mother of her husband.
Thinking of this, the anger she was brewing pressed down, not afraid of her anger, and said calmly: "No matter what A-Niang thinks, I haven't done anything wrong, if you want to hate me, I can't help it." But you are an elder, a mother of your husband, you are sick, and I should take care of you as a daughter-in-law. If you refuse, then I won't go into the house, I'm in the cubicle, and if you have something, someone will come and let me know. ”
"I don't need you to come, you'd better get out of here for me, I don't have a daughter-in-law like you." Liu said very seriously, and he didn't care about Xin Zixuan's thoughts at all. "I know, you're afraid that if Yan Niang enters my house, you, the eldest daughter-in-law, will have no status. What kind of flattering tricks did you make Da Lang obey you, and coaxed your father-in-law around, and now Shiro can't pass the exam. Do you think that in this case, you will be able to call the shots in this family? ”
Xin Zixuan was immediately furious when she heard this, and her heart-wrenching words were like sharp knives, piercing straight into her chest clearly, and twisting them without hate.
"Auntie, forgive me for being rude. From this morning to now, I don't care how much you have scolded me. But just now, if I don't talk back, do you want me to acquiesce? Xin Zixuan took a deep breath and looked at Liu coldly: "My daughter-in-law, whether you recognize it or not, you can't change it." I don't care which lady Shiro marries, even if it's the princess, it's none of my business. I have always been the eldest granddaughter-in-law of the Li family, and this cannot be changed. ”
Unless Li Sijin divorces her and marries someone else. But that is not the case.
It's just that he was scolded by Liu for being flattering to make Li Sijin obey, Xin Zixuan wanted to laugh when she heard it, if a woman can't make her husband considerate and obedient, it is called failure. She is the main room that Ming Media is marrying, and she talks about foxy tricks.
If Li Sijin listened to this, he would never reason with the Liu family as calmly as she did.
Although Xin Zixuan has been raised by her parents to be well-read and reasonable since she was a child, she is also a lady who grew up on horseback, not those daughters who can only embroider and play the piano.
"You say I didn't pass the exam because I replaced his cheat sheet with a blank piece of paper?" Xin Zixuan couldn't describe the surprise and fear she felt when she found out that her brother-in-law was preparing to cheat by such despicable means. "Have you ever thought that if he is caught, you will be the one who killed him?"
"It's clear that you hurt it! You're simply selfish, you can't see Shiro well, you just want your own scenery. Liu said hysterically.
"If I hadn't been able to see Shiro, then I would have told my husband about this a long time ago, and I don't have to care about you and Shiro's face at all." Xin Zixuan sneered.
When Xin Zixuan found out about this, she didn't dare to speak out, because she knew very well what kind of temper her husband was. At that time, the exam was going to start every other day, and if Li Sijin knew about it, he was afraid that he would directly tie Si Yan up in the house and prevent him from stepping into the examination room.
Although she didn't know what Si Yan's knowledge was, it was better to take an empty-handed exam than to cheat on a cheat sheet. This is an exam in front of the Son of Heaven, and if it is discovered, the consequences will be unimaginable. It wasn't until after the exam that Si Yan came back with a frustrated face, and everyone didn't take it seriously, thinking that it was too hard. But as soon as the list was released yesterday, when he learned that Si Yan was off the list, Liu yelled at her like crazy and was not allowed to approach, and he hugged Si Yan and cried.
Xin Zixuan couldn't understand why the Liu family would risk Zhulian, help Si Yan cheat, and even treat her as an enemy.
"I see." Li Sijin's voice sounded abruptly, startling the two women in the room. Xin Zixuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned around, a little nervous, worried that Li Sijin would listen to what she had just said presumptuously, and she would have a bad impression of her. Nervously shouted Li Sijin's name, but he didn't hear it at all, just looked at Liu's flickering eyes with an angry face.
"Da Lang, you, you can't listen to her nonsense, this vixen ......" Liu Shi panicked and didn't choose to speak, she didn't know why she had no authority at all in front of her eldest son, and she always felt timid.
"A-Niang, she is your daughter-in-law, and my grandfather personally hired her for me." Li Sijin interrupted Liu's words, and said softly word by word, saying that Liu's words were flustered.
"Husband, don't be angry, there must be some misunderstanding in between." Xin Zixuan immediately weakened her momentum, and she was not as majestic as she had just spoken to Liu.
Li Sijin turned his head, glanced at his wife, nodded lightly at her, and looked at Liu again, "Just now Erlang told me that in the early dynasty, the Metropolitan Procuratorate impeached the chief examiner of this Spring Festival, saying that he took a large amount of bribes and leaked exam questions privately. All those involved in cheating were removed from their grades and banned from entering Beijing for five years to take the exam. Li Sijin seemed to be stating something that had nothing to do with him, and the end of his words changed. Shiro was also caught cheating, but because he only found a blank piece of paper and looked at his grandfather's face, he was not found out. ”
The Liu family didn't expect the current world to come so quickly, if Si Yan was found cheating, I am afraid that the entire Li family would be embarrassed.
Li Sijin's unsmiling expression had already made Liu's heart even more empty, and when he suddenly heard him sneer, Liu's heart chuckled. "A few days ago, when I heard that the spring was leaking, I packed tickets with my colleagues, and Shiro would never participate in it, but I didn't expect that I would shoot myself in the foot."
"Da Lang, listen to my explanation, in fact, this has nothing to do with Shiro, it is the problem that I used to buy two silver." Liu hurriedly explained.
There was a commotion in the courtyard, and then when he heard Ling's voice, Li Sijin pulled up his wife and said to Liu: "A-Niang, don't destroy the Li family again." Then he walked out and happened to meet the Ling clan.
"Da Lang, why did you come back so early, don't you worry about your aunt? What a filial child...... What's wrong with the eldest daughter-in-law, her eyes are red. ”
"It's nothing, she broke a soup cup and was counted down by my aunt."
"Hey, why did your house fall too, it's okay, it's okay, it's just a soup cup. Okay, hurry up and wash your face, you have me here. ”
"Then there is Aunt Lao."
"What are you talking about?"
