All the gentlemen who are attacked by the female queen are stunningly beautiful

Seeing this, the young man saluted Song Xiang from afar: "Xu Jining has met my cousin!"

The old lady said to Song Xiang: "Come here and meet your cousin Ning. This is your uncle's child. This is the first time you have met him at this age!"

Song Xiang could only return the greeting: "Well, cousin!"

Xu Jining was stunned for a moment, then looked away, and said to the old lady: "Grandma, my eldest sister has gone to deliver the goods. She will not come to see you until the goods are delivered!"

The old lady smiled and said: "Okay, okay, they are all good children. I couldn't believe your father's letter before. Now that I see you coming, I finally feel at ease. Now that you are here, I will stay a little longer." How's the weather?"

Xu Jining responded: "My father also wants to let me and my eldest sister stay with my grandmother for a few more days before returning to Changshui County!"

The old lady took Xu Jining's hand and asked with concern: "How old are you now? Have you already made a marriage?"

"Going back to grandma, since Ning just turned sixteen this year, she has not yet been engaged!"

Song Xiang's whole body shivered and he was about to run away when he heard the old lady say: "She is only two years older than Xiang'er. They are both young people and can talk about the same place. Xiang'er happens to be at home, so let her I’ll take you to the garden for a walk!”

Xu Jining glanced at Song Xiang lightly and responded calmly: "But it depends on my grandmother's orders."

Song Xiang had a headache and wanted to refuse, but since they were all relatives, he couldn't say anything to refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Then... cousin, come with me to the garden!"

After a while, he took him to his elder brother's yard, handed him into his hands, and then found an excuse to escape.

Seeing Song Xiang leading Xu Jining out of the room, the old lady said to Mrs. Qian: "Now that Song Xiang has been admitted as a scholar, if I don't let her marry Jining, I will wait until she reaches a higher position in the future. Come on, I’m afraid I won’t even think about the Song family!”

Mrs. Qian said flatteringly: "You have watched the eldest lady grow up. She is so filial to you on weekdays. Why can't she help our family? Old lady, please stop worrying!"

"She has feelings for our Song family after all. Even if her mother and father find her in the future, can she still miss our Song family?"

The old lady shook her head and said: "Love is the most unreliable. It is more reliable to tie her to our Song family!"

"I originally wanted her to marry Yi'er, but they have become brothers and sisters, so they naturally refused. Fortunately, my Xu'er received a letter a few days ago, and I thought of assigning Ji Ning to Xiang'er. idea!”

Mrs. Qian said: "Old lady, you are also here for this family. The eldest lady will understand you!"

"hope so!"

...

Song Xiang had already brought Xu Jining to the garden of the main house. She introduced him as she walked without any unnecessary emotion.

Xu Jining also saw Song Xiang's coldness and asked without knowing why, "Does my cousin have any objections to Jining?"

Song Xiang replied politely: "I don't have any objections. It's just that there are differences between men and women. I'm afraid that getting closer will stain my cousin's reputation."

Xu Jining paused and deliberately fell a few steps behind: "Jining overstepped his bounds!"

"It's okay..." Song Xiang still led him calmly to Song Zhizhou's yard, and then said calmly, "This is my eldest brother's residence. I will take you in to meet him..."

After that, he walked straight in and shouted as he walked: "Brother, my cousin is here to see you!"

Song Zhizhou came out of the room and saw his little sister with a strange young master. He asked curiously: "Little sister, who is this?"

Song Xiang introduced with a smile: "This is cousin Jin Ning from my uncle's house. He has never been here before. This is the first time he comes to our house. Please accompany him!"

Xu Jining immediately held his hand and said: "My name is Xu Jining, I am sixteen years old and I was born in August..."

Song Zhizhou returned the courtesy and said, "I was born in March and am older than you, so just call me Cousin Zhizhou!"

"Stop standing outside, come in and sit down!"

Song Xiang said with a smile: "Brother, I have to visit my mentor. I'm afraid I can't accompany you. You can find your second brother first and accompany your cousin Jin Ning!"

Song Zhizhou nodded and said: "Then go quickly and remember to bring gifts. Don't be careless and lose etiquette!"

"understood!"

Xu Jining looked at Song Xiang's retreating figure with uncertain eyes...

"Cousin Ji Ning, come in and sit down..."

...

Song Xiang found Tan Yan, took Xie Shili, and rode to the Xiluo Thatched Cottage in Xicheng.

At this time, at Mr. Liang's house, Mr. Liang and Mrs. Zhang were holding letters sent from the capital, talking to each other and looking through them.

Mrs. Zhang said with a pleased tone: "Fortunately, Mr. Qian has a past affection for the jade and allows him to keep the jade in Shuxing for two more years. Otherwise, if he is randomly married by Mr. Zhao, he will suffer a serious crime." !”

Liang Gong agreed: "Yu Bi will still have a hard time in the future. Qian Yinshu will climb up sooner or later. With her way of doing things, it will be a matter of time for her to let Yu Bi down. I'm afraid Shu Xing's marriage is also for him to make friends with noble people." A bargaining chip!”

"What should I do?" Mrs. Zhang really loved this child Shu Xing, and seeing Shu Xing's concern for him in the letter, he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable in his heart.

"Look at how well-behaved Shu Xing is. They are not having a good life themselves. They asked my wife how many talented people you have taught. You are such a good boy."

Liang Gong said with a frown: "He is also locked up in a deep courtyard with no news. He lives a miserable life. He just wants to hear something new to relieve his boredom!"

"My wife, please write more interesting stories about us with them, and tell them not to worry about home. We are all fine!"

Liang Gong nodded and said: "I wonder how Song Xiang and the others did in the exam? They have passed the government exam, why is there no news yet?"

Just as he was talking, a boy reported: "Master, there are two students outside asking to see you!"

Liang Gong said hurriedly: "Invite people in quickly."

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang got up and went to the inner room.

Song Xiang took Tan Yan into the house. When they reached the main hall of the main courtyard, they walked in. As soon as they entered, they saluted the superior and said, "Student Song Xiang pays homage to the master!"

"Get up, get up!"

Tan Yan stood on one side and bowed: "Tan Yan has met Master Liang!"

Song Xiang just got up from the ground when he heard Liang Gong ask: "This is..."

Tan Yan behaved well and replied politely: "I am from Fucheng. I am the daughter of Tan Ao, the headmaster of Taihua Academy!"

Liang Gong nodded when he heard this: "Song Xiang is honored to have a confidant like you!"

Song Xiang said with a smile: "Fortunately, the student has lived up to his fate and has been admitted as a scholar! Thank you very much, Master, for your hard work in teaching me for so many years! The student is grateful!"

"This is not all my fault, but also thanks to your hard work!" Liang Gong nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Where will you study next?"

Song Xiang said neither humble nor arrogantly: "Go to Taihua Academy to study first. If there is a place to study in the Imperial College, then fight for it!"

"It's good that you have such a progressive mind. When you go to a higher school in the future, you shouldn't be slacking off. You should study hard!"
