There are some differences in the costumes of scholars and ordinary people, and there are also differences between children and scholars. This is a great honor given to scholars by those in power.Scholars who serve as officials can help the ruler govern the country. In this era, there is also Confucianism, but it evolved from the ancient Confucianism and majored in righteousness. Therefore, when it was passed on to the people, it was very popular with those in power and formed a chain of imperial examinations. , Training officials.

The tailor embroidered by the family, after a few days, made clothes for Mianli again, but this time she respected Mianli more. Last time, under the care of Mrs. Xu, several moles embroidered women dared to look at her secretly , and now it is much more dignified than last time.

Cooperating with measuring clothes, Mianli asked Mianjing: "Second Sister, what's the rules for worshiping the ancestors?"

Mian Jing shook her head: "It should be the sacrifices of several clans near us. The main thing is to arrange sacrifices to heaven. Now that you are a scholar, you can exempt our own corvee, and you can exempt a thousand acres of taxes under your name, so these should be It will be agreed upon after offering sacrifices to the ancestors, anyway, you can't lose money, and Auntie will help you."

Mianli nodded: "I save it." Mianli is still willing to do such things that are beneficial to the development of the family.

Every sacrifice is a historical archive that records the existence of a family, and it is also a form of family incense inheritance.In Dayue Kingdom, no matter how big or small the family is, they all attach great importance to blood inheritance, so family sacrifices are of great significance to every Dayue Countryman.

Sacrifice is mainly about respecting the ancestors and not forgetting the origin. During the sacrifice, the atmosphere of the sacrifice is very important, mainly solemn and solemn.

After receiving the notice, several branches of the Mian family near Shixuan Town came here day and night, which was equivalent to a gathering of the whole family.Before the sacrifice, all the participating sons and daughters of the Mian family bathed and fasted, and gathered at the entrance of the ancestral hall at the auspicious time measured.Originally the sacrificial ceremony should be presided over by the patriarch or the eldest son and daughter, but this time it was the Mianli Jinxue Sacrifice, where the head of Shixuan township of the Mian family ranked sixth, so it was presided over by the elder with the longest age and the highest seniority. Collective rituals and sacrifices are held, and the whole family kneels down to worship their ancestors.

Mianqianpu, an elder of the family, read the sacrificial text: "The granddaughter of the 37th generation, Mianjia, won the first place in the Mianli County Examination, which was the first of its kind in the Mianjia imperial examination. I pray to the ancestors, that our descendants will never forget the kindness of our ancestors, inherit the foundation of our ancestors, and the Mian family will be a successor."

After a solemn ancestor worship, Mianqianpu presided over the site of the sacrifice field. Because Mianli will move to Suilin Village in the future, the clan gathered people to buy another [-] mu of land around the field allocated by Mianli and hang it in Mianli. Under the name, it serves as the location of the Mian family's sacrifice field. In the future, the Mian family members will use the output here, and the clan members will take turns to cultivate it.After that, Mianyu helped Mianli choose [-] mu of land and put it under Mianli's name, which can be exempted from taxes.

After such a bunch of fragmentary things, Mianli accompanied Mianyu to receive all the relatives, and the family banquet did not disperse until the afternoon. Mianli accompanied Mianyu to send the last family member away, and all the Mian family members Go to the courtyard.While walking, Mian Yu confessed to Mian Li: "Xiao Liu, the county test you were able to pass this time was really beyond our expectation, and you have to be careful when you go to school in the future, after all I don't understand, besides, there is a limit to what my mother can do to help you after the separation, but does Master Qian still need to ask my mother to come over and give you a lecture?"

After listening to Mianyu's words, Mianli stopped and bowed to Mianyu: "Aniang, I can't have today without the earnest teaching of you and my mother. I will go to school tomorrow. After the banquet, I should have gained something in my studies, Master Qian, please ask my mother to resign! After all, it is not possible to delay Master Qian’s scientific examination." Master Qian is also a child student, and in Shixuan Town, he is the same as Mianli It's just that he didn't participate in this Enke. Now that Mianli wants to win the exam, Master Qian's knowledge is limited, so Mianli politely refused to accompany Master Qian.

After hearing this, Mianyu nodded in agreement. Now there are almost no people in Shixuan Town who can teach Mianli further. Mianyu plans to discuss with Bumeng after Mianli has participated in the school feast. Make sure that Mianli can enter the officialdom steadily.Originally, the two only planned to let Mianli become a scholar, so that they would not suffer too much when they went out to deal with officials.But now the two have already changed their minds. Regardless of Mianli's status as a monk, just because Mianli was able to win the first place in the county examination, their minds became active. Obtaining the official status as a juren, so that the two families can develop stably for at least two generations, and with the friendship between Mianli and the eldest princess, it is not difficult to revitalize the family business. Thinking of these Mianyu and Bumeng It's hot.

Mianli bid farewell to Mianyu and Mrs. Xu, and went back to her Denglan Pavilion.Because of Mianli's current status, the lunch tribe didn't drink much.Inside and outside the gazebo of Denglan Pavilion, Mianli looked at Xiao Yu who was leaning against the gazebo and fell asleep, and walked two steps over to shake him awake: "Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu?"

Xiao Yu woke up leisurely: "Ah, it's Master Liu! Ah, I wish you well! When did you come back?"

Mianli looked at the vermilion pillars in the gazebo and the refreshments on the stone table inside, and asked Xiao Yu, "When will you come back? Just now! Let me ask you, why did you fall asleep here? Where is Liu Niangzi?"

"Um," Xiao Yu was a little dazed, and then pointed to the gazebo, but looking at the empty gazebo, Xiao Yu was a little hesitant: "Sixth Lady was still playing the piano here just now!"

Mianli looked at Xiaoyu's dazed look, and must have fallen asleep unknowingly, then looked around, and saw a coat under Xiaoyu's feet, Mianli reached out to pick it up: "It must be Qi'er, see if you are sleeping well?" call you."

Xiaoyu took the coat with a bit of shyness, rolled it up with her hands, and pouted: "I don't want to, my maidservant, but the family is really busy these few days..."

Mianli waved her hand: "I'm not blaming you, follow me back to the main courtyard!"

Talking about Mianli walking in front, Xiaoyu hugged the clothes in her arms, and made faces at Mianli's back, but thinking about asking Liu Niangzi to cover herself with clothes, Xiaoyu lowered her head in shame.

Sure enough, when she returned to the main courtyard, she looked at Buqi in the inner room, but she seemed to be packing Mianli's luggage. Mianli frowned and said with a smile, "Qi'er, what are you doing? Day, where do you need so many things?"

Buqi tidied her clothes, smoothed out the wrinkles, raised her head and smiled: "You pretend I don't know, the top ten students can all be admitted to the county school, and now the teachers in the town should not be able to help you enter the school anymore, I This is done in advance.”

Mianli listened and nodded: "Thank you so much, Mrs. Xian." After speaking, he lifted up his robe and sat beside him watching Buqi tidy it up.

"It will take a while for me to tidy up these things, you go and rest for a while." Bu Qi stroked her hair and said to Mianli.

"It's so trivial, why not let Xiaoyu and Yingcao take care of it, and you can rest with me." Mianli held Buqi's hand.

Buqi looked around twice, Xiaoyu had bowed her head and waited for the arrangement since entering the door, and Yingcao was helping to tidy up the closet.

Mianli looked at her, how could she not understand Buqi's thoughts, she leaned forward and said, "Don't worry, I'm looking in all directions, and neither of them have seen it."

Bu Qi bit her lip lightly, raised her hand and thumped lightly: "No one is in shape."

Mianli sat upright after hearing this: "Xiaoyu, go and make some melon slices for my grandfather, I'm a little bit drunk when I drink."

After hearing this, Xiao Yu let out a sigh, and gave Bu Qi a salute: "My lady..."

Bu Qi shook her head lightly, and ordered: "Yingcao, you and Yingcao go together!"

Seeing the two maids being sent out, boiling water and making tea, Mianli felt happy, raised her body, and the two sat behind Buqi in a whirl, stretched out her hand, and hugged Buqi into her arms.

Bu Qi called softly: "Oh, don't mess around, the sky is bright and bright."

Picking up the corners of Buqi's hair in Mianli, she rolled a few rolls with her fingers: "What's wrong with the blue sky? You are my wife who Mingmei is marrying."

Buqi stretched out her hand and pushed Mianli's hand: "The sky is bright and the sun is bright, how decent it is."

Seeing Buqi's slight resistance, Mianli felt a little pain in her heart, but she still wanted to try, to see if the two of them could get closer, so Mianli leaned forward: "You were not like that last night!"

When Bu Qi heard that she was struck by lightning, she couldn't bear the embarrassment: "How can you..."

Mianli lifted Bu Qi's chin, making her look at her: "Why can't I?" After speaking, she kissed her lips.

After feeling Buqi's slight trembling, Mianli let go of Buqi, and lightly tapped Buqi's forehead with her lips: "No hurry, we have a lifetime, I am willing to wait for you." After speaking, Mianli took Buqi into her arms inside.

Buqi calmed down, leaned her chin on Mianli's shoulder and asked, "What are you waiting for me?"

Mianli chuckled: "Wait for you, wait until you grow old."

Buqi's heart was blocked, and she felt a little lost when she thought about getting old.

Mianli didn't hear Buqi's response, and asked, "How? What's the matter?"

"I think I'm old, and it's scary to think about it." Buqi's deep voice came.

Mianli laughed softly: "I'm old, there's nothing to be afraid of, we will have a large group of children and grandchildren who will respect you, you are like an old ancestor..."

Before Mianli could finish speaking, Buqi stood up and looked at Mianli coldly.

Mianli was startled: "What?"

"I don't allow you to talk nonsense!" Buqi seemed a little excited.

"I'm not talking nonsense, you must be like your ancestor when you get old..." Mianli continued, but Buqi's hand had already covered Mianli's mouth.

"I'm not as old as my ancestors when I'm old, and you must grow old with me at that time." Buqi said excitedly, feeling the coolness of Buqi's fingertips, Mianli seemed to feel Buqi's warmth instantly Mind.

Mianli broke away from Buqi's hand and said, "Well, you and I grow old together and become the cutest couple of little old ladies and little old ladies in the family, me! Hold you by my arm and let's walk slowly together. good?"

After hearing this, Buqi showed her face: "Okay!"
