Shen Jiaoniang opened the door and looked at the people outside.

"Why are you back so late today?"

"I have assigned some errands from above. I will probably be very busy for a long time in the future. If I come back late in the future, you don't have to wait for me. You can rest first."

Shen Jiaoniang said softly.

When Chen Fugui walked past her, Shen Jiaoniang raised her eyebrows slightly. She seemed to smell a faint fragrance. She followed her husband and moved her nose slightly. It seemed that she smelled it wrong. Shen Jiaoniang yawned and returned to the house ahead of her husband.

At noon on the eighth day of May, Lin Hanshan came to Zaolin Hutong, looked at the locked door, a flash of confusion in his eyes, and fell into deep thought.

Lin Hanshan is a smart man, otherwise he would not be admitted as a scholar. His wife's parents are the only relatives Jiang Minghong and his brother have here. Have they really not looked for or paid attention to them? Before I think about it, my daughter-in-law came to see Mrs. Xie, what if...

After a while, Lin Hanshan looked up at the locked door. It seemed that he wanted to inquire about his father-in-law and mother-in-law's affairs. He stood there for a while, adjusting his emotions before leaving.

In Qingshi Hutong, Jiang Minghong listened to Jiang Ping's report and praised in a good mood: "Not bad!"

In this life, he wants to destroy Chen Fugui's family.

"It's all because of the young master's good guidance."

Jiang Ping also didn't expect that Chen Fugui, looking at such a shrewd person, would take the bait like this.

"Next, let Liu Ruhua go see Xiao Anzi more, and Chen Fugui must not be suspicious."

"Yes!"

Seeing that the young master had no other arrangements, Jiang Ping did not take up his time anymore and left Qingshi Hutong immediately.

Jiang Minghong sent Jiang Ping away and gently hooked his lips into the study. Xie Yuan raised his head and glanced at his brother-in-law who was in a good mood. It seemed that what he was doing behind their backs had made progress.

Seeing Jiang Minghong sit down next to Qi Yongsi, Xie Yuan then glanced at Qi Yongsi. Before, he thought that Qi Yongsi's ancestors should have had scholars, but now he was in despair. But this time he went back to Wanping to ask the old patriarch and found out about Qijia Village. He changed his mind. This young man's life experience may not be simple.

Xie Yuan looked away and looked up to see Su Niang carrying a basket and going out again. Well, these people in his family are getting more and more interesting.

In the backyard, Jiang Mingyue was making clothes when Pingguo walked in.

"Ma'am, take a rest, don't hurt your eyes."

Jiang Mingyue said 'hmm', took the astragalus water from Apple's hand, took a sip and asked, "Aren't you going to learn how to make cakes from Su Niang, and you learned it so quickly?"

Apple looked at her master and whispered, "Su Niang went out again."

Jiang Mingyue looked up at Apple after hearing this.

"Is it this often now?"

Apple nodded.

"Before, she only went out once every two or three days, but now she goes out every day, and after coming back recently, I found that she was in a very good mood."

Have you gone to see an old friend?

"Madam, should we send Zhao Shan to follow us and take a look?"

Jiang Mingyue thought for a while: "Yes!"

She paused and explained again.

"Tell Zhao Shan not to be discovered by Su Niang."

"Yes!"

At the beginning of Xu Shi, in Linjia Village, Chen Juan opened the courtyard door for her husband and reached out to take the basket on his back.

Lin Hanshan turned sideways to avoid holding his wife's hand and said warmly: "The backpack is a bit heavy, don't get hurt."

"Hey!"

In the study, Lin Hanshan put down his backpack, looked at his wife who had followed him and asked, "Mom, are you asleep?"

Chen Juan nodded: "What did Xie Juren say?"

Lin Hanshan shook his head gently: "I didn't see anyone."

Chen Juan couldn't help frowning when she heard this: "I didn't see anyone again!"

"Well, they came to Beijing. Xie Juren's brother-in-law will take the college examination this year, and their family has moved to Kyoto."

"It's really unfortunate that we came in such a hurry."

"Yes! But there's no rush, they will always come back."

Chen Juan said 'hmm', and that's all she can do now.

"Cousin Minghong may be admitted as a scholar?"

"There are not 5,000, but 4,000 people who take the college examination every year. If Jiang Minghong's previous level is a bit low, but with Xie Juren personally teaching him, he should be able to get on the list."

Chen Juan felt even more passionate after hearing this. She must recognize this marriage.

Lin Hanshan glanced at his wife who was thoughtful, and asked casually: "My father-in-law bought a new house, and his money must be a little tight recently. Next time you go back, bring more money, and then the eldest brother and the second brother will go to school." What are your plans, father-in-law?"

"I would like to thank my husband for my parents first, but don't worry, my parents have money now, and they have made arrangements for the eldest brother and the second brother to enter a private school."

Lin Hanshan's eyes flashed slightly. He still knew a little about the situation at his father-in-law's house. When he and his wife first got married, every time his wife went back, she would try her best to bring more vegetables, rice, noodles, meat, etc., and revealed that she wanted to Two younger brothers came to Wanping to study.

And in less than a year, my father-in-law was not only promoted to the seventh rank, but he also bought a house in a very expensive place in Kyoto and made arrangements for his two brothers-in-law. Where did he get so much money?

And Lin Hanshan knew that if a low-level official like his father-in-law wanted to be promoted, he must have outstanding abilities or someone with money to take care of him. It seemed that he wanted to ask someone to inquire about his father-in-law.

The next morning in Qingshi Hutong, Jiang Mingyue was slightly surprised after hearing Su Niang's words. This was the first time Su Niang had asked for leave for so long. However, Jiang Mingyue quickly calmed down and said happily: "Yes, Su Niang If the money in my hand is not enough, I can find apples to pay ten taels."

"Thank you madam, I have enough money."

Jiang Mingyue nodded.

"Go early and return early."

"it is good!"

After watching Su Niang leave, Jiang Mingyue and Pingguo looked at each other.

"Madam, I'll be right back when I go."

In the front yard and study room, Xie Yuan looked at Apple and whispered to Zhao Shan. Zhao Shan immediately went out and fell into deep thought.

At the same time, Lin Hanshan, who had transferred classes with others, came to Kyoto.

In the Qian Mansion, Qian Da walked into the living room, looked at Lin Hanshan and said with a smile: "Just now the servants said you were here, I couldn't believe it. You are a very busy man, how come you have time to come to my place today?"

"Brother Qian, I want to ask you something today." The Qian family has been petty officials for generations, and the marriage partners are also petty officials from various yamen. They are the most well-informed and should know something about their father-in-law. .

"What's the matter? I need you to make a special trip."

"I want to ask about Chen Fugui from the Ministry of Industry?"

Qian Da looked at Lin Hanshan when he heard this.

"You know him?"

Lin Hanshan nodded.

Qian Da saw that he was not willing to elaborate, so he was very sensible and did not ask further questions.

"Speaking of it, this Chen Fugui is really a person. He had never been well-known in the Yamen before, but I don't know what path he took last year, and he suddenly fell in love with the eldest prince..."
