The Xiao brothers and sisters held candlelight talks at night, not talking about poetry and songs, but only about their ideals in life!

The sound of the midnight watch came, and Mingjia also made a final concluding speech.

"Brother! Study with peace of mind! Like dad, you will also be a good official in the future!"

"And with me here, our family will not be short of money!"

In fact, Mingjia wanted to joke with her brother that she had even prepared a betrothal gift for him.

Mingjia considered that Mingjun was too thin-skinned, so she didn't mention it until she finally left.

August 15th is the day of Mid-Autumn Festival reunion.

This year, the Xiao family finally got together. Mrs. Dong planned to hold a banquet and invite many relatives and friends to the government office to celebrate the festival together.

Yan Niangzi was the first to arrive, and she also brought a lot of crabs.

At first Yan Niangzi said that she came to Dianzhou just to learn the unique local embroidery skills in Dianzhou, but Mingjia would not ask why Yan Niangzi still stayed in Dianzhou.

Qumu Atu soon arrived with his son Cheng Cheng in his arms. The seven-month old Cheng Cheng had a lively personality.

When Atu entered the courtyard of the Xiao family with Cheng Cheng in his arms, he found Mrs. Dong and Mrs. Yan sitting and talking. He quickly took two steps over to say hello!

Mr. Dong clapped his hands tentatively, and Xiao Chengcheng immediately responded actively with open arms, eager for the other person to hug him.

"Madam! Don't hug him. This brat is too heavy. Your arms will get sore after being held for a while!"

Mingxi, who was "studying" crabs at the side, heard that her mother wanted other children, and immediately stood up and ran to stand in front of her mother.

Mrs. Dong lowered her hand and touched Mingxi's little head: "Do you want to come and see my brother?"

……

Women and children were chatting and entertaining their children in the backyard, and men in the front yard were drinking tea and chatting.

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Yang Tingxuan, as the magistrate of the state, also expressed his intention to invite all his colleagues to drink tea together.

Ming Jun has been staying in the yard to recuperate since he fell ill. This time, Yang Tingxuan specifically asked Xiao Qingshan to bring his son to drink tea with him.

Yang Tingxuan was also concerned about Mingjun's health and specially called him over to see how he was recovering.

Yang Tingxuan was very surprised when he received the article sent by Aman. He also learned the reason for Mingjun's illness from Aman. Yang Tingxuan gained an additional understanding of Mingjun's efforts.

Previously, one article every three days was never delayed, and the issues Yang Tingxuan commented on would never appear a second time.

Yang Tingxuan is really satisfied with Xiao Mingjun now, and he would be even more satisfied if Mingjun was not Xie Boyuan's disciple.

Ming Jun and Ming Jia stood behind Xiao Qingshan and greeted the many uncles in the government office openly.

The brothers would occasionally help Yang Tingxuan entertain their peers, and attracted much attention wherever they went.

All the officials in the government knew that Xiao Qingshan's eldest son had passed the scholar examination and was very talented in reading.

The most important thing is that the eldest son of the Xiao family is not married yet!

Xiao Qingshan and Dong have reduced their banquets and flower banquets recently. More and more people are inquiring about Ming Jun and Ming Jia's marriage.

So today everyone's eyes are on Xiao Mingjun, and some also focus on Ming Jia because the children in the family are still young.

Meng Tongpan was also invited to come and chat with his son, but the Meng family's young master had already made an engagement!

"Brother, you are in demand!"

Mingjia tilted her body and couldn't help teasing her brother in a low voice.

Mingjun never worried about his own marriage. On the contrary, he was very worried about his sister Mingjia's marriage.

[Have time to chat with your parents! It’s better for my sister to change back into women’s clothes! 】

"Master Xiao's eldest son is already sixteen years old. Is he not married yet? There are not many good girls of the right age!"

A government clerk suddenly made fun of Xiao Qingshan. In fact, the clerk wanted to mention his daughter directly, but he still had some scruples.

There was a moment of silence in the hall, everyone wanted to see Xiao Qingshan's reaction.

"Hey! I don't need to worry about my eldest son's marriage. I have already entrusted it to his master!"

Xiao Qingshan responded sincerely, but the scribe's expression seemed a little unbelievable.

Yang Tingxuan did not expect that Ming Jun would be so popular, and frowned as he watched someone covet his son-in-law.

[After the Mid-Autumn Festival, let’s settle this matter! 】

After the whole tea banquet, Xiao Qingshan was like a slippery loach. Several times someone asked about the child's marriage, Xiao Qingshan avoided him.

Mingjun and Mingjia had been standing beside Peng watching, even Mingjun and Mingjia had to praise their father;

"Awesome! My dad!"

"My dad is so awesome!"

In the backyard, all the guests invited by Mr. Dong were seated, drinking tea and chatting.

Mrs. Dong looked at the lovely Miss Meng next to Mrs. Meng with envy. She would always praise Miss Meng from time to time, and her eyes would stop on Miss Meng many times.

Mrs. Dong was just greedy, but Mrs. Meng had some misunderstandings.

Mrs. Meng naturally knew that the Xiao family was a good matchmaker, and Ms. Dong's soft temperament must make her a good mother-in-law. However, she already preferred her daughter's marriage to her maternal nephew.

Worried that Mr. Dong would say something difficult to refuse, Mrs. Meng only sat there for a while, then excused herself and left, saying that she had something to deal with at home.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Mrs. Dong also understood how busy Mrs. Meng was, and specifically ordered Mrs. Shui to see off Mrs. Meng for herself.

"Grandma Shui's embroidery skills are very good. My daughter will be doing embroidery work at home next year. I wonder if I can come and ask for advice!"

Mrs. Meng took her daughter out and chatted with Mrs. Shui as if chatting.

Mrs. Shui lowered her head and agreed without any change in her expression. She just said that she was the only one who had time.

Qumu Atu is a big-hearted person. Even if he gets married and becomes a mother, Atu does not understand the art of speaking between Han people.

Lady Yan could see Mrs. Meng's thoughts to some extent, and she could only smile in her heart. Not everyone could enter the Xiao family's door.

[Ms. Meng is indeed good, but after all she is educated and cannot be the eldest daughter-in-law! 】

[You can’t tell it to Mingjia, right? puff……】

The beautiful lady was almost laughed out loud by her own narrow-minded assumptions!

When Ming Jun and Ming returned to the backyard, Mrs. Dong had already sent away Mrs. Meng and Miss Meng, and the only guests in the main courtyard were Yan Niangzi and Qu Mu Atu.

Ming Jun came over to greet everyone, then left and went back to his study.

Ming Jia was asked by Mr. Dong to stay and have lunch with everyone.

Yang Tingxuan went to the toilet halfway through his tea, and happened to meet Ming Jun when he returned to the hall.

"My nephew has met Uncle Yang!"

"Have you recovered well?"

"Thank you, Uncle Yang, for taking care of me. I'm in good hands! Thank you also, Uncle Yang, for sending me the medicinal materials!"

"Hmm~! Those articles of yours are still in my study. Come and pick them up when you have time!"

Ming Jun remembered the articles sent by Ming Jia and blushed for a moment, but he quickly responded.

"Xiu Mu will be at the government office tomorrow. I wonder if Uncle Yang will have time. My nephew just has a question to ask!"

"Well, you can come over anytime tomorrow!"

Before talking to Xiao Qingshan about his children's marriage, Yang Tingxuan still wanted to talk to Ming Jun again.
