In order to keep the dividends from her first book, He Lao Niang, the smartest old lady in Bishui County, spent a lot of money to buy two kilograms of rose cakes and two kilograms of jasper layer cakes for her dealer He Zijin and Miss He Xiaoxian.
As soon as the cakes were bought, Mrs.
He greeted her kindly, "Take a break first and eat a piece of cake, otherwise it won't taste good when it gets cold.
What Xiao Fuzi is waiting for is the freshly baked cake.
Try it.
Oh, this is It’s warm and smells good.”
He Zijin went to eat cakes first.
Seeing that He Lao Niang bought a lot, he ordered Cui'er to eat meatballs together.
He Lao Niang felt a little distressed, but she didn't say anything.
She even gave Zhong Geer a piece, and some The Shen family and the Chen family, the Yu family, all have a share in seeing it, otherwise the pastry will indeed lose its flavor once it gets cold.
Mrs.
He mainly greeted her two eldest grandsons and said, "It's finally a holiday for the official school.
Let's relax at home for two days."
One thing to note here is that in the spring of this year, Brother Ah Liejun went to the official school to study.
Ah Lie was a transfer student and Jun Geer was in the enlightenment class.
Of course, they both passed the exam, but they were mainly related to Shen Su.
The main reason was that Shen Su also took courses at the Imperial College and was relatively familiar with the people in the education system.
It is spring now, and the teachers in the official school also have different duties, so the official school simply has a holiday.
Brother Jun is a good boy.
When he saw that there were fresh cakes at home, he immediately took a piece in his hand and ran next door to ask Brother Axuan, Brother Ajiang, Brother Azhu and Brother Adan to come over and eat together.
Madam He's room became lively all of a sudden.
There were many children in the house, and the four-pound cake was quickly finished.
He Lao Niang looked at it and said with a smile, "This saves you from keeping it cold."
Although the cakes are a bit expensive, they are not for outsiders.
It is said that since Shen Su gave this mansion to He Zijin, He Lao Niang has treated the Shen family very well.
That stingy temper has changed.
Of course, this is just being generous to the Shen family.
Especially if the family is lively and has many children, it is a sign of prosperity.
Mrs.
He was very happy when she saw the children playing lively.
She showed rare concern for her daughter-in-law and asked Mrs.
Shen, "Why don't you eat cake?
Remember you also like to eat this."
Shen smiled and said, "Tell the children to eat.
I don't really like sweets these days."
He Lao Niang was very satisfied.
She expressed concern for her daughter-in-law, and her daughter-in-law's response also made her so satisfied.
As a daughter-in-law, don’t you have to endure hardship first and enjoy yourself last?
As a result, Shen became more and more pleasing to the eye.
After eating the cake, Mrs.
He took a sip of tea to smooth her throat, and then she became concerned about the girl's book sales and asked, "Is everything ready?"
"Well, let's separate the books, and when A-Nian and my father win, we can just paste them on book covers and sell them."
He Zijin always looked like my father and A-Nian would definitely win.
Madam He said, "Why haven't you pasted the book cover yet?"
"Now I don't know what rank my father and Anian are in.

If either of them can get the top three, they will have the same book cover.
If they are both Jinshi, they will have different book covers.
This is a double preparation."
He Lao Niang said happily, "She is quite thoughtful."
"Isn't this like grandma?"
"That's true."
He Lao Niang always believed that her girl's film was inherited from her, and all excellent genes can be found from her.
Mrs.
Shen is very concerned about her daughter's business, because her husband and son-in-law are struggling in the Gongyuan.
Mrs.
Shen is always capable of saying a few unlucky words, but in her heart she really wishes she could go to the Bodhisattva to burn incense again, to bless her husband and son-in-law to win at least one, otherwise , My daughter is really going to lose money in this business.
Mrs.
Shen was so anxious and worried, Mrs.
He had already discussed with her maid, "When your father and A Nian win, our family will have to have a good time to have a few banquets."
Ah Xuan interjected, "Grandma He, I heard that when Brother A Nian and my uncle were elected, you always set up a flowing banquet in our hometown for three days."
"Yes."
Speaking of this, Mrs.
He said with both joy and regret, "It's a pity that when I was in a hurry to pack my things and come to the Imperial Capital, I could only barely set up the running water mat for three days.
If I hadn't been in a hurry to come to the Imperial Capital, I would have had to leave him Not for ten days” Ah Xuan gave a thumbs up and boasted, "Grandma He, you are so courageous.
This time my uncle and Brother A Nian were hit.
You can't even set up a half-moon flowing water mat."
He Lao Niang is stingy in other matters, but she is not stingy in this regard.
As long as there are happy events at home, she is still afraid that she will not be able to pay for the banquet.
He Lao Niang said, "If they can win, don't say half a month, a month I would rather it be just the same.
We are new movers and we only know the neighbors.
If we wait for half a month, no one will come to eat.
Everything in the imperial capital is good, but it is not as lively as our hometown."
Ah Xuan said, "The imperial capital is a big place with many people."
"That's the area where the emperor lives.
How about it?"
He Lao Niang said, "If you study hard, in the future, like your sister Zijin, you can enter the palace to see the emperor."
Ah Xuan burst into laughter and said with a smile, "If you are like Sister Zijin, you can't just study, you have to learn to grow flowers."
Ah Xuan liked Sister Zijin very much and said, "Sister Zijin, please teach me how to grow flowers."
"Okay, I have quite a few roses in my house.
They are easy to grow and have many flowers blooming.
You can pick a few pots later."
"become" The family was talking nonsense, Cui'er came in from outside and said, "Old lady, madam, young lady, the old lady and the grandfather of the Li family are here to talk."
Madam He was still confused and asked, "Which Li family" is in the imperial capital?
I don't know anyone named Li.
Cui'er said, "It's said to be the Li family in Shuzhong."
He Lao Niang couldn't remember which Li family in Shu for a while.
Shen said, "Could it be Sister-in-law Li's natal family."
"Shit, there are no good people in her mother's family."
This is talking about He Xin's wife Li, who filled a house for He Xin when she was 17 or 18 years old.
Although He Xin treated Li well, the reason why Li married Filling the house was all due to her mother's family being greedy for money.

He Lao Niang has always looked down upon such people who sell their children and daughters.
The He family was still wondering which family the visitor was, and Cui'er said, "Old lady, madam, would you like to invite them in?"
They came to the door in person and were still waiting outside.
"Oh, of course you have to come in."
The He family never dreamed that it would be the former Governor of Sichuan, Governor Li, now Mr.
Li, and the wife of the former Governor, Mrs.
Li, Mrs.
Chu.
The old couple are really not young anymore.
They are both dressed in simple clothes, not at all gorgeous.
It is Mrs.
Li.
On the head, there is only an ordinary green jade hairpin.
However, although the two of them looked a little haggard, their noble aura of being in a position of power for a long time could not be concealed by simple clothes.
After the old couple introduced themselves, the He family was a little at a loss.
Madam He was also panicking, thinking that a camel was so thin that it was bigger than a horse.
The Li family was afraid that the visitor was unkind.
However, although Mrs.
He was a little scared, she still pretended to be unafraid, raised her chin and asked, "Are you here for revenge?"
Even if she knocked on the door, she was not afraid to wink at her girl Pianzi and ask her to I'll go to Shen's house and call for help.
Even though the former Governor Li was well-informed, Mr.
Li was still questioned by Mrs.
He.
Fortunately, Mrs.
Li was a little quick-witted and said quickly, "Old lady, please don't misunderstand us.
We are here to apologize."
"Yes."
Old Mrs.
Li looked embarrassed and said sternly, "We did not teach our children well.
We were rude to Miss He and came here to apologize.
I am really sorry."
Mr.
Li also looked ashamed and said, "I'm sorry for your family."
With that said, the old couple bowed deeply to Mrs.
He.
"Oh oh oh oh" reversed so fast that Mrs.
He was a little confused.
At the same time, she suddenly felt that the chair under her butt was a little uncomfortable.
She didn't know what to say for a while, so she quickly looked at her girl's movie: This, she Bow to her, what should I do?
He Zijin went over to help Mrs.
Li, and Ah Xuan also helped Mrs.
Li up smartly.
He Zijin helped the person sit down, and said politely, "How can this not happen?
With your age and status, how can you help me?"
Why don't you come to my house to apologize?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
To be honest, it wasn't your elder brother who did this.
Based on your status, you wouldn't be able to do such a stupid thing. .
My family is a small one and I rarely go to the state capital.
But once I go there, I know that there are always some changes in the state capital.
Even the official road from our county to the state capital is well paved.
We ordinary people talk about it at home. , They all say that the Governor is wise.
Everyone knows that you are a good official for all the things you have done for us people in Shu."
After He Zijin said this, He Lao Niang felt that her girl was knowledgeable, and she deserved to have seen the Emperor's girl's movies.
Of course she doesn't like the Li family, but they came to apologize like this.
Furthermore, I heard that his family has a big backing, so Mrs.
He felt that she might not be able to offend them.
Therefore, it is not good to offend his family too much.
Mr.
Li looked ashamed and sighed, "Hey, I don't know how to teach my son.
I don't know how to teach my son."
Mrs.
Li said, "I never knew that your family also came to the Imperial Capital.
We originally sent people to Shuzhong to apologize, and then we found out that your family came to the Imperial Capital to take the exam, so they came late.
If we had known the news earlier, we would have come earlier.
It’s time to come and apologize.
Hey, luckily nothing happened to your girl, otherwise, our sins would have been aggravated.”
This is really true.
The young master of the Li family is causing trouble to the girls of the family.
They defrauded many girls from good families in Shu.
Even though some of those people were vain and wanted to be rich and noble, but having said that, who doesn’t want to live a better life?
, a little better.
Even if He Zijin is pregnant and vain, she is still happy to live a good life.
She just grew up with A Nian since childhood, and she didn't want to enter the palace and be a concubine.
Is vanity worthy of death?
Where are all the girls that Mr.
Li and Zhao San deceived?
Thinking of this, He Zijin felt a little bored, and was unwilling to say any more empty words.
He sighed, "I am lucky enough to be fine, so I don't need you and my elders to worry.
My family understands your elders' thoughts, too.
We all understand.
You don’t need to keep it in mind.”
Mrs.
Shen also said, "Yes, our girl's marriage has been decided.
There is no need to mention the past matters.
Fortunately, there is no danger."
Madam He wanted to express her opinion, but she muttered nothing.
Mr.
Li and Mrs.
Li came to apologize in person, but the He family was not very enthusiastic.
They sat for a while, said something apologetic, and then stood up to leave.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
The He family didn't give a big gift, so He Lao Niang began to express her feelings freely and said, "I just saw how old they are, and I have something to say.
It's hard to say it directly.
If we cut off our children like this, nothing will happen to our family.
His family will come over to apologize."
Useful.
Those other girls have been living for several years without seeing anyone dead. , what happened to these girls' families, how can they make amends for such a high-ranking official, who is a governor and has a lot of money.
If he wants a girl, he can just go to Ren Yazi to buy her.
In the end, he has the idea of exterminating his descendants and just going for the good.
If someone cheats and raises a son like this, how can he have the dignity to go out?"
The more Mrs.
He talked, the angrier she became, and she talked about He Zijin again, "You are the same, and you still say that he is a good official and taught such evil things.
It's not much better."
He Zijin said, "For a real person like my grandmother, you can believe whatever others say.
My uncle told me about the Li family's case a long time ago.
The boy who was a concubine in his family was involved, but the others were unharmed."
Mrs.
Li's natal family is the Duke of Chu, and your Majesty's first wife is the sister of Mrs.
Li.
I don't believe that Mr.
Li has harmed so many people.
I'm sorry, his family is in bad luck right now, so he's just showing off.
I'm afraid his family heard that His Majesty had summoned me, or they knew about Master Chaoyun, so they came here in a hurry, otherwise they would be in trouble. , I won’t come either.
It’s all about saving face, and it’s not like we want to have any long-term relationship with his family.
Otherwise, if his family comes, our family will ignore him and we will become enemies.”
He Lao Niang also knew that what her girl said in the film was true, so she just stroked her chest and said, "I just hate the abominable things his family did."
He Zijin said, "If the Li family has such a dishonorable thing, Governor Li's future is over.
Even his family's children and grandchildren will be affected by this.
The retribution is yet to come."
He Lao Niang said bitterly, "If people like this don't get retribution, then God really has no eyes."
In the car, Mr.
Li and Mrs.
Li were also talking.
Mrs.
Li was not energetic.
Mr.
Li closed his eyes and knocked on his knees and asked, "Look, how is the He family?"
Old Mrs.
Li said sadly, "Miss He is quite smart.
People say she can answer questions in front of the emperor.
However, if there is something else, it would still be useful if we show our shame.
But it is such a shameful thing.
The He family said Even though I don’t care about it, I also feel sorry for our family.
I don’t have any good excuses."
As she said this, Old Mrs.
Li clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, shaking with anger.

"On weekdays, do you eat less or drink less?
What kind of girl has no shortage of women?
You still think you don't care about me if you let him go to the brothel to tease her?
You didn't let that scoundrel in the door in the first place, but you Let him enter the house, what will happen now if he was raised outside at first, now there is always an excuse."
Every time Mrs.
Li thinks about this, her eyes are filled with hatred.
She was born in the Duke's palace, and although she is a commoner, her husband is promising in his career. , I don’t want to be careless, husband The aunt who raised a kiln girl still insisted on letting a scoundrel into the house.
Now a scandal has happened that affects the whole family.
The whole family has to be affected by this.
It is difficult to choose the husband from the lawsuit.
The scoundrel cannot be cured.
Even that bitch was beaten to death with sticks.
However, the hatred in Old Mrs.
Li's heart was still boiling in her chest, and she would explode at her husband from time to time without stopping for a moment.
Mr.
Li sighed and said, "I only regret that I didn't listen to you.
If I had known about such evil, I would have strangled him to death when he was born, and saved today's scandal."
How could Mr.
Li not hate it, but when it happened, In this way, even if you beat that bitch and this evil obstacle to death, it will have no other purpose except to vent your anger.
I just hate that the family's reputation has been ruined.
Old Mrs.
Li also knew that complaining was useless, and said, "The letter of the crown prince's canonization is now confirmed, and the auspicious day will be after the Spring Festival.
We are now in a desperate situation, but fortunately, Shiro's mother-in-law is the crown prince's direct aunt, not as good as You write a letter to your in-laws.
It’s not that you want your in-laws to say good things to us, but you have to tell them about this matter so that they don’t misunderstand our family.”
"What you say is very true."
Mr.
Li was not born to be a governor.
He had been a minor local official for many years and only became successful in his later years.
Therefore, the in-laws of several sons are from middle-class families.
The fourth son married into the Yu family, who married Xie, who was the Crown Princess's direct aunt.
Even the fourth daughter-in-law, when the Crown Princess was working as a princess outside the palace, the fourth daughter-in-law often went to pay her respects.
At this age, Mr.
Li has given up on pursuing an official career, but he is worried that even his children and grandchildren will be affected by the evil obstacles.
The future will inevitably be bumpy.
From now on, the hope of the family will fall on the four sides. on his shoulders.
Mr.
Li was thinking all the way and discussed with his old wife, "That kid A Fan has been quite promising in recent years."
This was talking about Shi Lang's uncle, Yu Fan.
Yu Fan had been working in the Ministry of Rites, and the prince was still in charge at that time.
When he was a prince, he received an envoy from the Ministry of Rites.
At that time, Yu Fan was quite respected by the prince, who was still a concubine prince.
Later, the prince's transition from concubine to legitimate prince to heir apparent, and Yu Fan's career also went smoothly.
Now he is a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, so he will have no worries about his future.
Mr.
Li sighed, "My in-laws are more discerning than me."
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Old Mrs.
Li said mercilessly, "As long as I don't accept the bitch, I'll be a hundred times better than you."
Mr.
Li was disappointed, "How can I not regret it?"
Old Mrs.
Li sneered.
If it hadn't been for the evildoer who had implicated the whole family, she really couldn't see where this old thing would regret it.
He Zijin was right.
The Li family had indeed heard about He Zijin's visit to Ci'en Palace and quickly came over to apologize.
It's not that he's afraid of the He family or anything, it's just that he has to have some attitude.
The Li family may not have much sincerity, and the He family has no intention of dealing with the Li family again.
This matter has been revealed.
Nine days passed by in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, the three-year spring festival was over.
The Shen family sent a car to pick up the people, and the He family boiled several large pots of water and prepared porridge and side dishes for everyone to bathe and eat.
Fortunately, everyone has experience in the examination room.
At least, there is someone who came out of Zigong Academy.
However, they all took a bath, ate something, and then fell asleep.
Only Anian still managed to ask Sister Zijin, "Are you okay these days?"
Didn't the Emperor summon Sister Zijin into the palace again?
He Zijin smiled, "It's okay, go to bed first."
A-Nian also held Sister Zijin's hand, "I'm not tired yet.
Sister Zijin will talk to me."
He Zijin asked him to lie down on the bed, and he sat by the bed and listened to A Nian talking about things in the examination room.
After saying a few words, A Nian fell into a deep sleep.
Sister Zijin tucked him in and then quietly walked out of the door, leaving San Xixi to guard him so that no one would disturb Anian.
Ah Nian only found out on the second day that the old emperor announced that his sister Zi Jin had entered the palace.
However, after hearing his sister Zi Jin's response in the palace and seeing that the matter had been made clear, Ah Nian felt relieved and said , "It is estimated that Sister Xuan Zijin will never enter the palace again."
He Zijin said, "Thankfully you warned me about Master Chaoyun's anomaly earlier, otherwise, I would have been really confused.
Your Majesty understands everything."
"Let them do whatever they want, it's none of our business."
A Nian felt relaxed and said to Sister Zijin, "I think I did a good job this time."
He Zijin smiled, "You think it's good, so it turns out it's really good."
Anian said, "I'll just leave it silently and take it over to show my adoptive father later."
A-Nian spread the paper by himself, took a small wolf brush, and suddenly said, "Sister Zijin, please grind the ink for me."
"Isn't there still ink?"
A Nian was a little shy and said, "Sister Zijin is wearing red today.
You can help me grind the ink.
This is called red, adding fragrance to the sleeves."
He Zijin gave him a slap on the head with his finger and said with a smile, "You're still quite thoughtful at such a young age."
"Is that okay?"
A Nian begged.
Seeing that he was in a good mood, He Zijin thought that he really did well in the exam, so he smiled and studied for him twice.
A Nian pursed his lips, but the corners of his lips still couldn't help but curl up.
He felt extremely beautiful in his heart. .
After several people woke up, they all silently showed Shen Su to read their essays on the topic that day.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Shen Suji admired A Nian's article and said with a smile, "It has the style of a top three person."
She felt a little embarrassed to praise A Nian.
Although Ah Nian's article was good, Shen Su was still a little worried.
It wasn't until the day when the results were released that Shen Su felt a big stone in his heart.
For such a big event as Spring Palace, every yamen will receive a Spring Palace list.
There are also some children or relatives in the Hanlin who attend the Spring Festival, and Shen Su is just one of them.
Shen Su had also been in Hanlin for some years.
He was able to keep his composure and did not push forward.
He just stretched his neck a little longer.
Xu Hanlin read the list three times from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top.
When he saw that his family members' names were missing, he sighed softly and moved away.
Seeing Shen Su stretching his neck out, Xu Hanlin smiled and said, "There are quite a few from Shuzhong, Shen Hanlin, take a look to see if they are any of your relatives."
Shen Su not only has a long neck, but also has good eyesight.
Holding a black-bone fan in her hand, Shen Su smiled humbly, "It's also a fluke."
Although Xu Hanlin was a little envious, this was his real ability.
He quickly asked, "I heard that your adopted son and brother-in-law took the exam, but they both passed."
Shen Su smiled, "I accept Brother Xu's good wishes."
The Hanlin Academy couldn't help but become more lively, and they asked how many people there were.
Shen Su is worthy of being the person who has run cram schools for many years.
Ah Nian's name is impressively ranked second.
As for He Gong, it is slightly worse, already ranked fifty-sixth.
He Luo is ranked seventy-nine.
In fact, the rankings are pretty good.
However, Shen Su's adopted son was actually in second place.
Even though he had not passed the palace examination, this was an excellent ranking.
At that moment, someone inquired with Shen Su, "I heard that Shen Hanlin's adopted son is a young talent.
I wonder if the marriage can be arranged."
Shen Su smiled and said, "She is our niece."
Although the man was a little regretful, he just asked out of luck.
He knew that such a promising child must be carefully selected even if there is no marriage, so he smiled and said, "This is a marriage, and it is indeed very good."
Marriage."
Congratulations to Shen Su.
Although Shen Su has a reputation as someone who is desperate for money, Shen Su has always been a good person.
And now his uncle and brother's adopted sons are all on the list, especially the adopted son, who is at the top.
If he has some luck, he will have a bright future.
Therefore, there is a voice of congratulations at this moment.
Shen Su thanked them all humbly.
That evening, when I returned home from the office, I could walk three minutes faster than before.
Someone laughed and said, "Look at Shen Hanlin, I wish I could fly back."
Another person said, "If my family had such a happy event, I would fly faster than Shen Hanlin."
Who doesn't look forward to the success of his relatives.
Shen Su went straight to He's house.
The two families were joking in He's house.
Seeing that both families were full of joy, Shen Su bowed to He's mother first and said with a smile, "I wish you congratulations to your aunt."
Mrs.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
He was smiling from ear to ear, and her eyes were squinting into a smile.
If you didn’t look closely, you couldn’t tell whether it was open or closed.
Mrs.
He smiled, “Same joy.”
Seeing that He Gong and A Nian were not there, Shen Su asked, "Where are my brother-in-law and A Nian?"
Jiang laughed, "There's not enough space to sit here.
They went to the Flower Hall in front of us.
Our neighbors all sent people to congratulate us.
We are just talking."
Shen Su said, "I'll go take a look too."
Madam He quickly stopped Shen Su and said, "Don't worry, Su, we have to talk about business first."
Shen Su was a little confused.
Apart from his brother-in-law's adopted son becoming a Jinshi, what else could he do?
She saw that Shen Su couldn't understand it, so she smiled and said, "Look, you are such a smart person, how come you just read that book?"
I forgot about it” "What book?"
Shen Su didn't understand yet.
Madam He reminded loudly that the excitement of "the book written by Ah Nian and I" almost deafened Shen Su's ears.
