Little wealth

At this time, Fu Siran saw his father and father sitting in the hall as soon as he entered the door. When his father saw him, he looked at him angrily. Only his father was happy to see him come back.

Fu Siran knew what he had done during the day to make his father so angry, so he quickly put away the smile on his face, walked forward to salute father and father and said: "Father, father."

"You still know you're back! Tell yourself, what did you do today!" If it wasn't for his husband who stopped him just now, Mrs. Fu would have rushed out of the door to clean up the little boy when he learned that he was back. Rabbit.

It's unreasonable, the abductees followed the abductees to their doorsteps!The one who kidnapped was the elder brother of their Fu family!

It's just that when he saw his brother come back happily from outside, Mr. Fu knew that it wasn't the pigs who stole their cabbage, but the cabbage he had worked so hard to raise for so many years and took the initiative to send him there to let the pigs go. Yes, this is what made him even more angry!

"Master Fu, this is not your courtroom. You are not interrogating a prisoner. Be careful with your wording and tone." Bai Luoxi almost slapped this man. He was used to being an adult outside, so he dared to slap him when he returned home. He is playing around with prestige!

"..." Master Fu dared to be angry and dare not speak out, but when he saw his husband's eyes, he knew that he wanted to beat him up.If it weren't for their brothers and servants here, it is estimated that their husband would have done it.

If you want to say what is the biggest change in his husband these years, it is probably that he loves him less and less, and he despises him at every turn.

The elder brother raised by the family was abducted by a pig, and his husband disliked him again. Master Fu felt that this life was becoming more and more difficult...

Turning to face their elder brother, Bai Luoxi immediately changed another face, smiling like a spring breeze, and even changed his voice to a soft voice, asking: "Nuomi, what are you doing today?" Maybe he went out to play with that kid, Ah Nian. I posted the list today, and I know that kid won the first place, and that kid is really proud of Ah Xu."

Knowing that their brother went out to play with that child, Anian, he was a child who grew up under his own supervision. He knew exactly what that child was like, and what his brother thought about him, Bai Luoxi Of course I know.

The two children went out to play for a day, and their elder brother also returned home before dark. It can be seen that the child is still very sensible and knows to send their elder brother back early.

"Well, I went out to eat with brother Anian. I went out without telling my father and father. It's the child's fault." With his father's protection, even if his father was angry, his father would not dare to lose his temper with him, but Fu Siran I also know that Father is actually the one who loves him the most.

But Fu Siran wanted to say sorry to his father in his heart, because he promised his younger brother Anian to be his husband.He was afraid that his father would be even angrier if he found out about this matter, so he didn't dare to talk about it now, thinking about telling his father quietly later, and asking his father to help him deal with his father.

When his father asked what they were doing outside, Fu Siran told the two fathers that they went to eat hot pot today, and Bai Luoxi knew that Anian's child had quietly opened a family in the capital. He said with a smile, "This is good. There is a lack of a restaurant like that in Kyoto. It just so happens that your father and I also like to eat hot pot. When it opens, I will take your father to try it."

If the children of the two families can achieve good things, it's better than their brother marrying someone who doesn't know his roots.Moreover, the relationship between their two families is also very good, and they know everything about Zhao's situation. He and Josh are good friends who have known each other for many years, and they are very clear about his character and temperament.

So instead of letting their brothers marry those families that are flashy on the outside but not known how bad they are inside, it is better to let their brothers marry someone they like.And considering that the other party is the heir of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, it seems that their elder brother is the best.

But no matter what is high or not, the most important thing is that their brother likes such a person, this is the most important point.Their family doesn't lack anything, and the shop has a lot of money. From now on, all the properties of their Bai family will be handed over to this brother. Even if their brother doesn't do anything, it will be enough for his brother to lie down Eat and drink well for ten or eight lifetimes.

Seeing someone come back from playing outside for a day, Bai Luoxi knew that the child was tired, so she let the child go, "Go back and change your clothes and eat, there is someone left for you in the kitchen and boiled soup. I'll have a drink."

"Okay, thank you, dad." After Fu Siran finished speaking, he looked at his father who was not looking well, and asked, "Then I went back, father?"

"Well, go back and rest." Master Fu couldn't get angry with his brother, and when he saw his brother looking at him with a pair of pitiful eyes, the anger in his heart also dissipated.

With the permission of the two fathers, Fu Siran took Xiao Nu back to the courtyard where he lived.

At this time, Sun Nian also returned to Pingyuanhou's mansion. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the old butler, who was bent after he grew up, walking around the yard with a cane, and there were two people guarding him on the left and right sides. Beside him, he was waiting for him in the yard entering by the gate.

As soon as Sun Nian stepped into the door, he hurriedly stepped forward to support the person, and said, "Grandpa housekeeper, why did you come outside here? It's cold at night, go inside quickly."

"Little master, you are finally back." Seeing that their family's grandson hadn't come back so late, the old housekeeper couldn't sit still and ran outside to wait for someone.

"Grandpa housekeeper, why are you waiting here?" Sun Nian helped the man into the yard, and said as he walked, "It's my fault. I forgot the time when I was playing outside. I should have come back earlier. People from the yamen today But did you come to our house to announce the good news?"

"Yeah, the people from the yamen came and said, young master, you got the first place in the exam. I have sent someone to send a letter to Anyang, but the second young master and the others should be on their way here. I don't know if they can receive the letter we sent. Letter." The old housekeeper smiled all over his face when he mentioned this matter, and said, "But it doesn't matter if you don't receive it, they will know when they arrive."

There are quite a few people who study in the major families in Kyoto, but there are not many who read good books. It is rare to be able to produce a Huiyuan. Their family's sons not only can read, but also got a first name in Chunwei. What an honor.

The old housekeeper made a special trip to wait here, of course it was his business, and when he saw the young master came back, he urged: "Young master, go and burn incense for the old Hou Ye and the old matriarch, so as to tell them the good news. .”

"Okay, I'll go right away." Sun Nian finally knew why the old butler had been waiting for him at the door for a long time. It was also because he didn't think of it himself. He thought that there was nothing to do at home so he came back so late, otherwise he should have been earlier When he came back, he wouldn't let the old housekeeper wait for him at the door for such a long time, his hands were a little cold from the cold.

Knowing that the old housekeeper was getting old, he walked slowly while supporting him.

The old butler is an old man who has served most of his life in the Hou's Mansion. Although he is old now and most of the work under him is left to the people under him, he is still the big housekeeper in the Hou's Mansion, in charge of all the things under him.Their family respected the old housekeeper so much, and the little daddy even asked their brothers to call the old housekeeper Grandpa, so that he would take care of the old housekeeper until his death.So now the old housekeeper lives in this Hou's mansion, not only the housekeeper, but also their family members.

"Master, have you gone to find that little brother from Mr. Fu's family? What's the name of that little brother?" The old butler only remembered the little brother's nickname, but he didn't quite remember his real name.

The old butler knew that their master and Mr. Fu's younger brother grew up together, the two children were childhood sweethearts, and their youngest son liked that younger brother.The relationship between their Hou Mansion and Mrs. Fu's side is relatively deep. Although that Mr. Fu is a side branch of the Fu family, that Mr. Fu became a fourth-rank official in the court by his own ability. It's also pretty good too.He has seen the little brother of Mr. Fu's family a few times, he looks upright, and he seems to be a good brother.

It just so happens that their Hou Mansion still lacks a concubine, if their young master works harder, maybe they will be able to find a concubine for their Hou Mansion soon.

"My name is Fu Siran, I miss you, but yes, Fu Siran." Sun Nian seriously introduced his little brother to the old housekeeper.

"Oh, Siran, it sounds nice. It's a good name, not bad." The old housekeeper nodded twice and remembered the name.

"Yes, there is something I want to tell you, Grandpa the housekeeper."

"You said."

"It's like this. I told Siran today that I want to go to their house to propose a marriage after the palace examination. How should we arrange this matter? Should we wait for Dad and the others to arrive, or should we prepare things in advance?" Sun Nian said to I don't know much about these things, since he decided to marry his beloved little brother as husband, he naturally couldn't wrong his little brother.

"Really, really?"

When the old housekeeper heard it, his face was full of surprises, and he said with a smile: "This old slave understands this matter best. This old slave will help the master to deal with it. Master, you can just leave it to the old slave to handle it." There are not many things, but there must be a lot of things that have been piled up in several warehouses, and they can pretend to be a hundred and twenty units as dowry gifts for their little princes.

However, the old housekeeper did not forget about the palace examination, so he said: "Little master, the palace examination is only a few days away, little master, you should prepare carefully for the palace examination these few days, and leave the rest of these matters to the old slave. The old slave will definitely do it to your satisfaction, the young master. After the second young master and the others come back, and you have passed the exam at that time, the young master, we can go directly to Mr. Fu's house to propose marriage."

"That's good, then leave this matter to the housekeeper, Grandpa, and you can help me."

Thinking of going to Fu's residence to propose a marriage soon, Sun Nian wanted to finish the imperial examination immediately.But he didn't forget that he said that he wanted to be admitted to the number one scholar, and marry his younger brother as the wife of the number one scholar, so he must work hard!

The two of them walked for a long time before they reached the ancestral hall of the Hou Mansion. Inside were the memorial tablets of the Marquis and wives of the former Hou Mansion.

Sun Nian went up to burn three sticks of incense, and told his ancestors the news that he passed the Huiyuan exam.

After burning the incense, he didn't forget to send the old housekeeper back to the courtyard where he lived before turning back to his own place.
