Chapter 654: Zhang Zhan gets married
After the champion finished the street tour, Wang Chuangui was exhausted, and the excitement had long since dissipated, but fortunately, his wife did not completely give up on herself, and she still had a warm chicken soup when she returned home at night.
Ma sat next to Wang Chuangui and told him about the excitement during the day.
Wang Chuangui almost choked himself with a mouthful of chicken soup: "Poof-"
Halfway through the spray, he remembered that it might be a rare good thing for him to drink, so he quickly stopped and swallowed the rest.
wiped his mouth before he said, "What Ayu actually sold so many things, what is today's expenses-"
The cost of Defeng Building is not cheap, a table of noodles costs more than a dozen taels of silver on weekdays, and this time Mrs. Wang directly chartered the entire Defeng Building.
In addition to their own family and friends on weekdays, Mrs. Wang also invited some students who knew Wang Chuangui, as well as other candidates from Wangbei County.
did not accept their gift money, so the expenses all fell on the Wang family, before Wang Chuangui was still trembling in his heart, for fear that the old lady would fall on his head again, that was not the icing on the cake, but to make matters worse.
"When are you going to see our mother suffer?" Ma whispered in Wang Chuangui's ear, "My mother discussed with the new chef in our family, and sent three recipes to the shopkeeper of Defeng Building, and the shopkeeper of Defeng Building only received a fixed fee of ten taels of silver, and I heard that you were admitted to the second grade, and all the money in the back was free." β
Wang Chuangui had a little sense of truth at this time, his eyes were faintly filled with tears, looking at the bowl of chicken soup in his hand, he finally felt the value of his existence.
It turned out that he was admitted to the second grade, and he could save such a lot of money for his family!
"Later, the shopkeeper heard that our Ayu's fiancΓ© is the current champion, and they all said that in the future, Ayu and his relatives will go to Defeng Building for dinner. Our Wang family can only give eighty percent of the food money when they go. β
Wang Chuangui's smile froze.
He also wanted to eat without a single meal.
In this way, even if you are downcast in the future, you will not be left without food.
Of course, such a useless idea is only wandering in my heart, with my own wife, it will never be that day.
"I'm a late bloomer, and I'm naturally not as good as young people." Wang Chuangui had already thought very openly in his heart, and the arrogance he used to have had been smoothed out unconsciously.
I remember that when he was on the Golden Palace, everyone thought that he was a late bloomer, so he was confident, only he knew that his palms were almost poked by his nails, that was really nervous!
Looking at the other students, they are actually similar to themselves, only Qin Huai is really neither humble nor arrogant.
Not only that, but when he answered, he didn't actually answer like a fluent, during which Qin Huai reminded himself quietly, otherwise, would he be able to get that kindness.
Qin Huai, this kid, is really talented and hard-working, if he really meets this kind of person, he doesn't even have the feeling of jealousy.
People who are more talented than you work harder than you, and it's normal not to catch up.
"Why don't you ask me how much money Ayu earned today?" After Wang Chuangui finished drinking the chicken soup, Ma Shi wiped his face with hot water, and mentioned the events of the day, "In the past, my mother said that Ayu's head turned fast, and today I can be regarded as an eye-opener, do you know that those students who pride themselves on being high on weekdays are being fooled by Ayu todayββ"
Speaking of this, Ma smiled again: "That kid is also sincere, and he will donate half of the winnings he gets." Speaking of which, it is only now that I learned that the difference between nobles and ordinary people is still very big, and as soon as the identity of Ayuyu Xiangjun is put out, those students don't even dare to say a word of seriousness. I heard them talk about it by chance, and they really dare to say it, and anyone dares to scold them. β
Wang Chuangui took the handkerchief, took out the dirty water and poured it himself, and brought Ma a cup of soothing tea by the way.
Then I went to wash my feet and found clean socks as before.
He took off his shoes and socks and soaked his feet with Ma Shi while sighing: "Ayu has never been an ordinary person, her road is far longer than ours. β
Ma Shi also laughed: "Yes, before Ayu came, I never thought that I would one day come to Wanning City and talk to the wives of some noble families. Not to mention that our San Lang also married Qianying, and you have also become a second-class jinshi, which is like a dream. β
"The heavenly family gave us three months off, three days later, I want to go to the inner palace to confer the title, after the official position comes down, the next three months can be arranged by yourself, as long as you arrive at the place of appointment when you take office, I specially asked, you can bring your family members to the post."
Ma didn't understand much of this, so he just asked: "I heard Ayu say that after being admitted to the Jinshi, you can still go to the Hanlin Academy to continue to do learning, don't you stop learning?" β
"When I'm older, I don't compare with young people, so I get a half-official position, which can be regarded as reassuring my mother's heart. The first-class jinshi has been awarded the title by the court, Qin Huai is the champion, and now he has received the post of Hanlin Academy, and will be awarded other official positions three years later. Wang Chuangui patted Ma's hand, "Over the years, I have really suffered you." Our family has a mother to support, and the children and grandchildren are promising, and if I become an official in the future, I may not be able to draw camps, you just have to rest assured and be your official wife, and you don't have to work too hard. β
"What did Xiang Gong say? Husband and wife are one, if you talk about hard work, I can't compare to half of my mother's, my mother's hard work is in my heart. Ma Shi looked at Wang Chuangui and wanted to say something, but in the end he held back and looked up at the door again.
In May, the night is thick, and a moon that is not mellow hangs above the sky, and I don't know how many people's dreams are illuminated.
After soaking his feet, Ma was about to pour water for washing his feet, but was stopped by Wan Chuangui.
"I'd better go."
"No matter how much I am a Jinshi, I am still your father-in-law, and I can't even give me this opportunity to be courteous." After Wang Chuangui finished speaking, he walked away with the footbasin.
Ma Shi looked at it, his eyes were moist again, and his heart, which was originally a little up and down, suddenly fell down somehow.
She slowly walked into the back room, and took out a small box from the cubicle, which Mrs. Wang had given her, and asked her to keep it.
Perhaps, before accompanying the prime minister to take office, it is time for him to write off his mother's accounts.
On the second day, Ayu learned that Qin Huai was already the editor of the Hanlin Academy, and immediately jumped with joy.
"Great, we can go up together in the future, and if you're tired, you can come to the astrology department to eat. Now Sister Tangyuan has a good relationship with the cook in the small kitchen over there, as well as the fat aunt of the cook in our astrology department. β
Qin Huai brushed the hair from Ayu's mouth and smiled with her: "Well, but I still have three months to officially become on duty, so it's hard for you to wait for me for another three months." β
"It just so happened that Grandma said that she wanted to go back to Hujia Village and hold the wedding of the third and fourth brothers, otherwise it would be difficult for the family to get together again when everyone took office and studied for school, so it was better to take advantage of March to get the marriage done properly." Ayu leaned into Qin Huai's ear and whispered, "Moreover, Aunt Zhou is also going to marry Uncle Zhang Zhan, and in the middle of next month, it is just right for us to go back." β
In addition, Village Chief Hu and Mrs. Hu have persuaded the whole village to officially set up a Wang family ancestral hall for the Wang family in Hujia Village, and the house has been repaired, tall and magnificent, just waiting for the Wang family to go back.
Wang Chuanfu nodded first in this matter.
Wang Chuangui's second-class jinshi is a groundbreaking event, and it is a major event in the entire Yongding County, from the classmates in Fucheng, down to the neighbors of Nanhe Town, and the villagers around Hujia Village, all waiting for this Jinshi master.
Of course, they also expect the township monarch to go back with the son-in-law of the township monarch who became the champion, then they will really be honored!
"Brother Ayou, are you going?"
Qin Huai didn't want to think about it, so he replied: "Go." β
As a result, when the Yongguo Mansion finally finished a vigorous champion banquet, Emperor Minghua quickly completed the concert for three days and three nights, and Zhengda Guangming took the recovered Empress Qin to the banquet, but learned that Qin Huairen had left early.
The full house of guests could only show an embarrassed but polite smile, and praised the little prince Qin who had not seen much in the air.
As for Emperor Ming Hua, he sat on the main seat and swished cold.
He looked at Empress Qin on the side with resentment, gritted his teeth and asked, "When will you let Huai'er return to the throne?" β
Empress Qin smiled slightly, picked up the soothing tea offered by others, the old god took a sip, and after a while, he replied slowly: "What the saint said, the concubine can't understand it." β
"I know it's wrong, when he comes back, you can do whatever you want, I won't stop you, can't you?"
It's almost time to ask for words.
Such an excellent son can't show off, he's so aggrieved!
Empress Qin covered her forehead and sighed: "Ah, I suddenly have a headache......
Emperor Ming Hua was so shocked that he immediately stood up, and in front of all the more frightened guests, he pulled Empress Qin away.
"Go back to the palace, Imperial Doctor Xuan."
As a result, as soon as she walked out of the gate of the Yongguo Mansion, Empress Qin walked in steps, saluted Emperor Minghua, and said gently and softly: "Thank you for the care of the saint, the concubine feels much better." The concubine will walk around first, and when the time comes, the concubine will go back. β
"I-"
"Congratulations to the Holy One." Empress Qin leaned over slightly.
Emperor Minghua took a deep breath, intending to mention the majesty of the emperor: "I-"
"Thank you." Empress Qin bent down even more.
Emperor Minghua's eyes became even more resentful.
She might as well be as unsentimental as in the past, and she could still deal with it, but now that he is at a loss.
In the end, he could only watch Empress Qin leave.
Emperor Minghua looked sideways and looked at the father-in-law next to him.
Father-in-law De was caught off guard and looked confused.
"Holy?"
"Deduct your month!" Emperor Ming Hua frowned.
Father-in-law: "Huh? β
Seeing Gonggong De's surprised and aggrieved expression, Emperor Ming Hua felt a little more comfortable.
Not long after, the bonus next to Queen Qin went and returned, handed over something, and said to Emperor Minghua: "This is specially left by Niangniang for the saint." β
After saying that, he left.
Emperor Minghua motioned to Gonggong De to take it, opened it and saw that there was a piece of jade pendant wrapped in the handkerchief, and it looked like the carving work, which seemed to be the handwriting of King Zhuo.
The jade color is transparent, the carving is exquisite, and it is the one he loves.
Emperor Minghua was beautiful, and immediately ripped off the piece on his body and threw it to Gonggong De: "I've rewarded you." β
Then, in the surprised expression of Father-in-law De, he hung up the new jade pendant and went back to the palace with brisk steps.
In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of June, and Hujia Village was dressed up in joy.
Ayu and the others stood at the entrance of Hujia Village, looking forward to it.
A faint sound of suona came from far and near, and I heard the dog head on the yellow horn tree shouting: "It's coming, it's coming, the welcoming team is coming!" β
Ayu was very excited, pulled the flat shoulder on the side, pulled the rice balls again, and hurriedly said: "Later, we will have to test Uncle Zhang Zhan, but we can't let him underestimate Aunt Zhou!" β
