Chapter 188: Spring Harvest (2)
In just two sentences, Huo Yan put away his disgusting and affectionate face.
Zhao Xiyan didn't bother to look at Huo Yan anymore, and instead smiled at the group of new science and technology scholars who were proud of the spring breeze: "Congratulations to all senior brothers on this Chunqiu High School." ”
The senior brothers laughed and said, "The master has taught us painstakingly for several years, and we finally haven't disgraced the master." ”
"The highest ranking is only nineteen, which is far worse than the master back then!"
The last sentence made everyone laugh.
It took decades for the Great Jin Dynasty to produce a Zhao Yuanming who was even in the middle of the three yuan. These disciples of them are already very powerful if they can not fall into the prestige of the master's sect. Where is the possibility of surpassing the Master!
Zhao Xiyan also smiled: "When the good news comes back to Beihai County, my father doesn't know how happy he is." ”
Xie Lingfeng smiled and joked: "At that time, the threshold of Zhao clan studies will be broken." The master has to worry too much about the students again. ”
The crowd burst into laughter again.
The spring breeze is proud. The new scholars are ambitious and happy.
Zhao Xiyan congratulated all the senior brothers, stopped staying, and went to the inner hall with Xu Ying to talk.
"Third sister, you have such a big belly." Zhao Xiyan exclaimed in a low voice: "But I haven't seen you for more than a month, why did you suddenly become so big?" ”
Xu Ying smiled: "After five months, my belly is like a ball, which has been blown up, and it grows rapidly. The doctor who checked my pulse told me that I had to eat less and move more. When the child grows too big, he suffers when he gives birth. ”
Zhao Xiyan has never given birth to a child, and she doesn't understand anything about these things about raising a baby, so she followed Xu Ying's voice and said, "Then you have to listen to the doctor." ”
Xu Ying smiled and said in a low voice: "Mother-in-law asked someone to send a letter, and my sister-in-law's wedding date is in May." She wanted me to leave for Beihai right now. ”
Xie Jiao is Xie Lingfeng's own sister, and it is really not appropriate to be a sister-in-law for such a major event as marrying.
However, Xu Ying obviously didn't want to go back to Xie's house.
Zhao Xiyan thought for a while and said, "After the palace test, the new science and technology scholars have a three-month vacation. When the time comes, let the third brother-in-law go back. The third sister's belly is so big, it is not suitable to run around. ”
Xu Ying immediately understood and nodded: "I'll write a letter when I go back." ”
With the Xie family's grandson in her belly, Xu Ying's waist is straight and full of confidence.
However, in this way, Xu Ying has to stay alone in the Beihai Palace. When the time of delivery, Xie Lingfeng may not be able to return to the capital in time.
Nothing is perfect. Xu Ying didn't want to be involved with her mother-in-law's family, but Xie Lingfeng couldn't help but be a son and a brother.
Xu Ying lowered her voice and sighed: "Jizhou has won a big victory, everyone is happy, but I am always worried. Chunsheng is also the first time to lead the troops into battle, the sword has no eyes on the battlefield, and he has a hot-blooded temper, I am really afraid that he will be accidentally injured. ”
Zhao Xiyan also sighed lightly: "I am also worried all the time. ”
"By the way, Chunsheng wrote back a few days ago, did he also write to you?"
Zhao Xiyan smiled and snorted. Then I heard Xu Ying muttering, baby brother was so busy that he didn't even have time to write a letter, and only wrote half a page of letter.
Zhao Xiyan silently decided to hide his thick letter from Xu Ying.
……
After a few days, it will be the temple test.
This was the first scientific expedition after Emperor Yongming ascended the throne. No matter how mediocre Emperor Yongming is, he also knows the importance of the imperial examination. On the day of the palace examination, Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites came out with the exam questions, Su Zhangyuan personally presided over the palace examination, and Emperor Yongming sat in the Jinluan Hall for most of the day, pretending to personally look at the top ten examination papers, and personally ordered the champion list to explore the flowers.
Luo Hong is really like in his previous life, he is the leader of this subject.
Meng Siyuan is a second-class heir, and the Meng family is overjoyed.
The good news came into the Su family, and the Yu family was overjoyed. Old Madam Su said with a smile: "It is really a happy event for the son of the Meng family to be so promising. Yu's, you prepare a generous gift to send to the Meng family. ”
Yu responded with a smile.
Su Jin was full of joy, her eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth were raised.
Old Madam Su glanced at Su Jin, and suddenly said, "By the way, Meng Gongzi is not married yet!" ”
Su Jin's heartbeat suddenly skipped a beat, and he quickly lowered his head.
Yu Shi coughed, quickly glanced at his daughter, and replied with a smile: "Yes, Siyuan is actually not young, he is eighteen years old this year." At this age, other young men should have married and had children. He devoted himself to studying and gaining fame, so his family affairs were delayed. ”
Mrs. Su said unhurriedly: "It's a pity that such a good son-in-law was robbed by another family to be an uncle." When you go to give a congratulatory gift, go and find out Mrs. Meng's tone. Huan'er in the second room is this year, and his age is matching with Meng Gongzi......"
Su Jin suddenly raised his head, his eyes showing shock and anger.
There are five girls in the Su family's generation, Su Jin ranks third, and Su Huan ranks fourth, one year younger than Su Jin.
Now that Su Jin's family affairs have not been decided, why is it Su Huan's turn?
Or the Meng family's Siyuan cousin...... What's the difference between this and poking her heart and lungs with a knife?
Yu's face also changed: "Mother-in-law, I'm afraid this family business is not suitable." ”
Old Madam Su said lightly: "How is it inappropriate." Meng Gongzi was born in a scholarly family, he is a new science and technology scholar, and he is barely worthy of the girl of our Su family. ”
Yu: "......"
Su Jin's face was red, tears were rolling in her eyes, and she was stubborn and did not fall.
Mrs. Su's eyes swept away, and the maids on the side retreated.
"Grandmother," Su Jin knelt down and begged despite Yu's repeated glances: "I am in love with Siyuan's cousin, and I ask grandmother to fulfill us!" ”
Old Madam Su sneered and narrowed her eyes. At this time, Mrs. Su, how could she have the slightest appearance of harmony and kindness on weekdays: "Jin'er, I will show this old face and seek the position of the crown princess for you." ”
"Don't you think that the prince can't marry a daughter-in-law! If you are not the girl of the Su family, how can you get the position of the crown princess. ”
"Except for the fact that the prince is a little weaker, he is outstanding in everything. Good looks, intelligent mind, generous temperament. The queen mother is your aunt, she loves you very much, and summons you into the palace from time to time. What are you dissatisfied with such a family affair? ”
Su Jin's eyes were red, and she bit her lip hard: "I know what my grandmother said." The prince's cousin is indeed very good, but I only have brother and sister affection for him. What I really like is Cousin Siyuan, and I want to marry ......"
"You pinched this thought for me as soon as possible." Old Madam Su coldly interrupted Su Jin: "You listen to me, this family affair is not unwilling." The queen mother told me before that when the prince is out of the filial piety period, she will make a decree to give marriage. ”
"If it weren't for the prince leaving Beijing and going to Jizhou, the holy decree of marriage would have already arrived at the Su family."
"You have to marry if you marry, you have to marry if you don't marry, you can't help it!"
