13 Chapter 13

Lu Anxun took Fugui over with an expressionless face.

Su Juan asked, "Where have you been in the past two days?" You're not here, the little guy doesn't care, do you know that Fugui is sick? ”

Lu Anxun stroked two handfuls of wealth and raised its head: "Sick?" ”

"Now it's okay, I asked the second sister to dispense it with a side medicine."

"Your second sister will still treat cats?"

"My second sister said that she may have suffered from the wind and cold, and it would be good to eat with a pair."

Lu Anxun nodded: "I guess it will be very busy next." ”

"Busy with what?"

"That ....." Lu Anxun scratched his forehead with his fingertips: "I want to enter the Hanlin Academy." ”

Oh, see, he wants to find his way too.

Lu Anxun said: "I told my teacher my thoughts, and he was very supportive, and I visited the courtiers with my teacher these days." ”

Lu Anxun's mentor is Mr. Qiu, who is Taixue.

It was the first time for Su Juan to hear him say so seriously, with Lu Anxun's temperament, he should be too lazy to do this. He has always fought for everything he wants, and he never disdains to engage in relationships.

She asked curiously, "Didn't you care before?" ”

Lu Anxun: "That was before. ”

"Why do you care now?"

"Because ......" Lu Anxun was not angry: "If I want to raise wealth and nobility, I have to support you, of course I have to work hard." ”

Su Wan's heart was sweet, and she suddenly wanted to fall in love with Lu Anxun.

She asked, "Lu Anxun, have you ever been in love?" ”

"What?"

Su Juan felt stupid, Lu Anxun hadn't even touched a woman's hand eighteen years ago, no, he didn't even have a girl he liked, what kind of love did he fall into.

She asked a different question: "Lu Anxun, do you want to fall in love?" ”

"What is love?"

"It's just ......" Su Juan thought for a while, and tried to explain as accurately as possible: "Be good with women, do happy things together, or intimate things." ”

"Lu Anxun," she tilted her head and asked expectantly, "Do you want to?" ”

The next moment, something called the faΓ§ade, and Su Juan subconsciously closed her eyes.

I raised my hand and touched it, it was fluffy and hot.

"Meow...", is rich.

Su Wan pulled away the wealth, and saw Lu Anxun's ears red and his complexion complex.

Shameful, incomprehensible, surprised......

"Su Xuan, what did you grow up eating?"

"But, it's so cute."

Lu Anxun was fierce: "This kind of thing is not allowed to be said again in the future!" ”

"Oh."

If you don't say it, don't say it, the little princess is shy and cute.

.

The auspicious day for Su Juan and Lu Anxun to get married, after many days of discussion between the two families, is finally set for March next year.

originally wanted to be earlier, after all, Su Juan and Lu Anxun are not young. But the Lin family went to the temple to ask for a signature, saying that Lu Anxun's luck was too prosperous this year, and if it was too late to welcome the happy event, he had to postpone it until March next year.

The auspicious day is set, the Chai family has become busier, and it will not be long before the third daughter Su Ling's wedding date, and after the third daughter's marriage is completed, it will be the New Year, and Su Juan will be followed by the New Year.

She began to keep her feet on the ground. In this dynasty, the trend of generous marriage is popular, and the first thing is the dowry. However, the Su family is rich, and the Chai family has prepared for their daughters early, and now they only need to be regular. But the utensils and furniture had to be freshly beaten, and the cloth, bedding, clothes and shoes had to be made by the embroidery lady.

The auspicious day is set to be Chai's birthday. Every year on Chai's birthday, the Su family will hold two tables to invite relatives and friends.

This year, five tables were simply held, and the Lin family, neighbors, relatives and friends were invited. On the surface, he celebrated the birthday of the Chai family, but in fact, he used his birthday to congratulate the Su family and the Lin family.

The banquet was scheduled for the evening, and Mrs. Lin took Lu Anxun to help in advance.

Lu Anxun, like Su Juan, is particularly good at behaving in front of his elders, usually Su Juan calls him to do some work, but he is perfunctory like a hot hand. But when I got to Daddy Su, he was as industrious as a bee.

Daddy Su asked him to move the potted calligraphy and paintings in the attic, he not only moved, but also carefully swept the dust with a feather duster.

Su Juan lay on the rocking chair and ate loquats, listening to the maidservant talk about it, and she was scornful.

In the evening, the guests came, and Su Juan took the maidservant to the main courtyard.

Five tables of seats, two tables of women, two tables of men, and one table of all children. Among them, the female dependents are in the flower hall, separated by carved screens. The men's tables are in the courtyard, adjacent to the children.

Su Juan entered the entrance from the verandah, entered the flower hall, and saw that there were already guests sitting inside. They are all neighbors, relatives, and ladies of families that her parents have befriended.

Su Xian also led Brother Min back, but this time it was only the two of them who came back, such a big event, but Xiao Yi did not show up.

Looks a little lonely.

After Su Juan entered the hall to greet the elders, he sat down next to Su Xian.

"Big sister." She quietly asked, "How are you doing lately?" ”

Su Xian knew what she was referring to, and everyone knew about Xiao Yi's outer room, and later the family also wrote to inquire. It's just that the affairs of the Marquis of Zhongyong's Mansion are like a mess, and she is deeply trapped in it and it is difficult to get out, how can she involve her mother's family?

"Very good, little sister doesn't have to worry." She said.

Su Juan sighed secretly, her eldest sister is like this. It is said that the eldest sister is a mother, and Su Xian has the demeanor of half a mother to their three younger sisters, and she takes care of them in everything and refuses to drag them down.

At this time, no one in the hall talked about the marriage of Su Juan and Lu Anxun, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm.

"The fourth girl is considered to have grown up since I was a child, and I know that she is a blessed person, you see, isn't it fulfilled now?"

Others chimed in: "Indeed, not to mention the four girls, Anxun is the same, these two children grew up on the same street and are the same age, and I didn't expect such a fate before." Looking at it now, she really looks like a talented woman. ”

The ladies looked at each other jokingly as they spoke. Su Wan sat upright with a smile, looking well-behaved and clever.

It happened that Lu Anxun passed by the window carrying something at this time, and she seemed to feel something and raised her eyes to glance.

I saw Lu Anxun smiling instead of smiling, with an expression of "I'll just watch you pretend quietly".

Su Juan glared at him secretly: each other.

This is indeed the case.

A moment ago, Lu Anxun was still laughing at Su Juan, and when the banquet was held later, Lu Anxun pretended to be more serious than Su Juan.

The elder poured wine, he hurriedly got up and held his hands together, and drank it all in one gulp with a "honest and honest" look.

Father Su smiled: "Nephew Lu Xian doesn't have to be like this, just take a sip, so as not to get drunk." ”

"Yes, yes, yes." As a result, the next cup was drunk "honestly".

From time to time, he modestly responded, "Where and where, you have won the award", "The younger generation does not dare to be, you praise it falsely" and so on.

Through the carved screen, Su Juan saw Lu Anxun skillfully behaved, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

.

That night, after the family banquet was dispersed, Su Xian stayed and sat for a while.

The Chai family was sending off guests, and the four sisters of the Su family sat together in the hall, the candles were faint, and the night was a little dull.

After a while, Su Xian spoke: "The little sister has a good marriage, and the eldest sister is happy for you." Lu Gongzi is a good one and knows how to cherish it. ”

Su Juan nodded, of course she knew that Lu Anxun was a good person, otherwise she wouldn't have beaten him.

After being silent, Su Ying spoke: "What are the plans of the eldest sister?" ”

This is what the sisters of the Su family are most concerned about, Su Juan and Su Ling both looked at Su Xian.

"I heard that the woman is six months pregnant, and I'm afraid it's too late to do it."

Everyone understands what "start" means. If you don't want to bring the outer room into the house, you can quietly get rid of the child. But now it's six months, not to mention that the child has been formed, and it's easy to make a fuss.

Su Xian mocked a little: "He kept this matter secret, and when I learned about it, the woman was four months pregnant." However, even if she is pregnant, I will not do anything to the child in her womb, this is my principle. ”

I have to say that Su Xian deserves to be a model of a noble woman. She is proud and kind. Bearing and upbringing are deeply rooted in the bone marrow. At the palace banquet that year, Concubine Jin praised Su Xian for being dignified and virtuous, which made Su Xian famous.

It is precisely because of this that the Marquis of Zhongyong came to ask for marriage. But now that more than four years have passed, the truth is not in things or people, how ironic.

"Eldest sister," at this time, Su Juan spoke: "Haven't you thought about making peace?" ”

"And leave?" Su Xian muttered blankly: "How easy is it?" ”

How easy is it to say?

It was the Mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong, not an ordinary market house, and it was all over the place. Not only will it affect the Su family, but it may also damage more interests.

What's more...... She didn't have the courage.

The future is unpredictable, and she doesn't know what she will face after she leaves. How should she deal with herself? What should the Su family do? What about her Min'er?

Su Xian looked a little lonely, sighed faintly, and swallowed the unfinished words.

Seeing her like this, Su Juan also knew that it was difficult for the eldest sister to make up her mind.

She sighed and persuaded: "If the eldest sister wants to reconcile, you don't have to worry about anything else, just ask yourself if you want to." ”

Su Xian smiled: "I understand the meaning of the little sister, it's just this matter...... Let me think about it. ”

.

At this time, Xiao Yi came out of Wan Niang's yard, and it was already late at night.

"Second master," the little maid reported: "Madame is still in the Su family, but do you want to pick it up?" ”

Xiao Yi snorted, and had no intention of answering.

Because of the scandal in his outer room, Mrs. Hou forced her to be nice to Su Xian and show the Su family more or less. At first, Xiao Yi agreed, but after finding out some things one after another, he didn't even want to do it.

He was beaten in the restaurant, and later Wan Niang's ex-husband sued the government, all of which were related to Lu Anxun. A hairy boy, the middle champion forgot a few catties and a few taels, and he actually dared to stand up for the Su family.

"Lu Anxun!" Xiao Yi gritted his teeth and spit out the name.

This person has caused him to lose the fat in his hands in vain, and if he does not respect each other, wouldn't it be rude?

Thinking of this, he asked in a low voice, "Everything is arranged?" ”

The little servant replied: "It's arranged, just wait for the second master to give the order." ”

Xiao Yi nodded and stepped into the carriage.

.

At the end of April, the gatherings of the Jinshi lords gradually decreased.

There is no other reason, the arrangements of the officials for these people have been settled. First of all, the personnel who were released from abroad, and those who got the official documents have packed their bags and left Beijing to take office. And those who still remain in the capital are probably the people who lead the capital and are in short supply.

However, even if you stay in Beijing and receive miscellaneous shortages, it is better than putting them outside, after all, the feet of the Son of Heaven are close to the court, which is convenient for promotion. Yes, the remaining Jinshi secretly rejoiced.

Among them, Lu Anxun and Du Wenqing were also left behind.

However, in addition to miscellaneous shortages, there is another fat shortage that attracts attention, and that is the bachelor of the Hanlin Academy.

There are six members of the bachelor's quota of the Hanlin Academy, and the first one has been promoted to other places, and there is a vacancy, and it happens that the Jinshi is released, so this vacancy has become a fat meat coveted by everyone.

However, there is a grapevine that the ministry is considering candidates to fill the vacancy, and Lu Anxun, the champion Lang, and Zhou Xiu, the Tanhualang, are among them.

Father Su also heard the news, secretly happy, and secretly looked forward to it.

"If Lu Xian's nephew can order Hanlin, he will definitely enter the cabinet to pay respects to the prime minister in the future." He said.

Chai is also very confident: "He is the Huiyuan, and he is the champion appointed by the saint, and he is only in the eyes of everyone, if it is not him, who can be competent?" ”

"Yikes! Madame's words are wrong. Father Su said: "The appointment of the ministry is not only based on learning, but also on multiple considerations. ”

When Chai Shi heard this, he pondered and asked, "Master, do you have a way to help?" ”

Father Su shook his head: "If there is a miscellaneous, I can help a little, but the position of Master Hanlin is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, where can I get involved?" It is not possible for people who are not in the Cabinet and the Privy Council. ”

"However, with Lu Xian's nephew's ability, no matter which aspect he considers, he must be competent."

The implication is that it is nine out of ten.

But it didn't take long for something to go wrong.

On this day, Su Juan was pickling dried bracken, but she heard the maid Yunling hurriedly report that Lu Anxun had beaten someone in Qionglin Garden, and the matter was very troublesome.

"Why did you hit someone?" Su Wan was puzzled, although Lu Anxun loves chivalry and righteousness, he is not an impulsive and brainless person.

"I don't know." Yun Ling said: "Aunt Lu was arrested and sent to Kaifeng Mansion, and now the master and Lord Lin have rushed together. ”
