"Those who know me, Master Lin also." Jiang Wen smiled and patted Lin Ruhai on the back a few times, and said: "There are many single soldiers in the army, am I doing General Ning a small favor?"

Lin Ruhai was speechless, all the girls she didn't care about were pushed into the army, so Jiang Wen could figure out how to save trouble.

Jiang Wen had something easier to do. Everything was arranged. The next day when Yu Chunxiao and her brother came to pay their respects, she put the two of them in front of Aunt Yue, and asked Aunt Yue to teach them some rules.

At the beginning, Jiang Wen invited Aunt Yue to congratulate her at the palace. Last year, during the Chinese New Year, her imperial edict came out late, so she avoided it for the time being. This year, it is probably inevitable.

However, she is in good physical condition and listens well, so she has basically reached the stage where she can complete her studies. A few days ago, Aunt Yue expressed her shame for taking money for nothing. Isn't this just a coincidence that the students came here?

Regarding her request for instructions, Jiang Wen said directly: "You are well-informed, and you can see where they are wrong and how to teach them. I, a layman, will not mislead your judgment." Then he sat on the side Go eat melon seeds and watch the two siblings learn the rules.

Yu Chunxiao and Yu Tianyi didn't even have a standard salute at all, so Aunt Yue asked them to start practicing over and over again.

After practicing the salute for half an hour, both of them were a bit overwhelmed, but Yu Tianyi stubbornly remained silent. Aunt Yue saw it, and after letting the two of them rest for a while, they naturally looked at Yu Chunxiao body.

There was a bowl full of water on her head, and as soon as Yu Chunxiao moved, she would sprinkle water all over her head, and Mother Yue, who had always been very good-tempered, would use a willow stick to whip her down where she was soft, "Serious lady, since If you don’t have a cartilage-like posture like you, stand up straight! If you drop the bowl, add another quarter of an hour.”

Yu Chunxiao's tears kept hanging in her eyes, but she didn't dare to shed them under the stern eyes of Aunt Yue, coupled with the wet hair clinging to her cheeks, she looked very pitiful.

Yu Tianyi noticed his sister's eyes asking for help, and felt sorry for her, but he knew in his heart that Mrs. Lin had no grievances with them, and there was no reason to deliberately torment them, so he closed his eyes as if he didn't see it.

Jiang Wen noticed the boy's appearance, and remembered that Lin Ruhai said that Yu Tianyi was studying by himself, so he asked the servant girl to fetch some books, and then said to Yu Tianyi: "I have already asked someone to find a school for you, but it is inevitable. Embarrass me, come on, don't just stand there, recite it to me."

He had to sit on a rocking chair to listen to people's reciting. After the servants moved over, Jiang Wen lay down on it directly, and then signaled Yu Tianyi to start.

She listened to Yu Tianyi's reciting by her ear, and watched Yu Chunxiao's difficult topping of the bowl with her eyes. She knocked down two more dishes of melon seeds. After reading that page, I began to memorize it.

Later, when he was sleepy, Jiang Wen lay down on the rocking chair basking in the sun and fell asleep. Before falling asleep, he said to Yu Tianyi in a daze, "Continue to memorize."

Yu Tianyi could only keep on reciting without daring to stop for a moment, and Aunt Yue took over Mrs. Lin's supervisory work when he saw that he got stuck in reciting, and reminded him a little, otherwise the boy's face would burn.

When Jiang Wen woke up again, he found that he had changed a book, and still took the book from Madam Yue with a calm face, and then watched the fun while eating sunflower seeds.

The brothers and sisters of the Yu family were all aggrieved, but they did not dare to be angry or speak out.

When Lin Daiyu came over, she saw her mother having fun there, and looked at the two Yu family siblings sympathetically. It seemed that she and her elder brother really bored her mother...

"Mother."

Jiang Wen turned his head when he heard the voice, saw that it was Lin Daiyu, got up and put the book on the table, and asked her, "What's the matter?"

"It's my brother who asked people to investigate. The matter has come to fruition."

When Jiang Wen heard this, he nodded, and then said to Mother Yue, "The two of them will be handed over to you", and then took Lin Daiyu back to the main courtyard.

After sitting down, Jiang Wen said casually: "It's pretty fast."

Lin Chen's servant replied respectfully: "This young master's matter is not a secret, the servant and others will know after a little inquiry."

"Tell me."

"This Mr. Zhou Lixuan is gentle, handsome and eloquent. He has a good reputation among Gusu students in this subject. That's why he got to know his current father-in-law, Mr. Ji Xing Huaiji, a doctor in the official department, and married his concubine daughter. In addition, put it in Shuzhou to be the same state."

"Since he is well-known among Gusu students, no one knows that he has engaged in a marriage?" You must know that there are many people who have not been assigned official positions after the imperial examination, and it is inevitable that some people will feel jealous, but no one Trying to dismantle it, this is a strange thing, right?

The little servant bowed and replied: "It is true that many people know that Mr. Zhou had a marriage contract, but Mr. Zhou once said in front of everyone... that his fiancée has kept his filial piety for three years. He couldn't bear to delay him and returned the engagement token."

"Return the token?"

Lin Daiyu looked at her mother in surprise, and said puzzledly: "But the marriage certificate is still there, it cannot be faked."

Not necessarily, although the marriage certificate is indeed valid, men and women are treated very differently in this era, the woman who repents of the marriage has to be punished, but the man who regrets the marriage is only punished and cannot recover the dowry.

How much dowry can be paid by Zhou Lixuan's family background, how can it compare to a capable father-in-law?The Yu family is thousands of miles away, so it's no wonder they feel confident...

As soon as Lin Daiyu thought about it, she also figured out the key points, and immediately scolded: "Treacher!"

Probably all women feel the same about such things, Jiang Wen patted Lin Daiyu's hand to comfort her, and then said: "We don't know whether the token is true or not, we still need to ask, at least our family is here, so we won't eat it." It's a dumb loss."

Lin Daiyu held back her anger and nodded, but then she asked again: "If the thing about the token is true, how can it be explained..."

Jiang Wen raised the corner of his mouth, put his arms around Lin Daiyu's shoulders and walked out, saying: "It depends on who is willing to fight. You said Zhou Lixuan and Yu Chunxiao, who is more afraid of losing their reputation now?"

"You mean..."

"Hush——" Jiang Wen stretched out his index finger and shook it left and right, and said, "Let's go and ask about this token first."

"it is good."

Jiang Wen took Lin Daiyu back to the garden again, and the Yu family siblings took a break at the words of Aunt Yue, and when they saw Mrs. Lin coming back, they immediately stood up again, with panic on their faces.

"Why are you nervous?" Jiang Wen smiled and waved his hand to signal the two to sit down, and then poured tea for himself and asked, "I asked someone to check on that Zhou Lixuan, and there is one thing that needs to be answered honestly. The Yu family and the Zhou family are engaged. What is your token?"

Yu Chunxiao subconsciously touched the bun on her head, and then said sadly, "It was Chunxiao who was careless, and lost that hairpin at some point..."

Jiang Wen raised his eyebrows, "It was lost? Then why did Zhou Lixuan tell others that you returned the engagement token and divorced?"

"Impossible!" Yu Tianyi stood up abruptly, and said firmly, "My sister falls in love with him and waits for that man to keep his promise and come back to marry her. How could she break off the engagement?"

"That's strange. If there was no such thing, Zhou Lixuan wouldn't be able to say it with such certainty?"

Yu Tianyi clenched his fists tightly, shook his head quickly, then stopped suddenly, and said decisively: "It must be that tricky slave! My sister's things are basically kept by them, and they lost it for no reason, they must be guarding and stealing." !"

"What about the marriage certificate? If you want to steal it, you won't just steal the token, right? Why is the marriage certificate still in your hands?"

Yu Chunxiao lay down on the table and wept bitterly, Yu Tianyi said bitterly: "My parents kept the marriage certificate before, and I never took it out before I went to Beijing."

"Oh——" Jiang Wen understood now, the co-author was not found.

"Diao Nu!" Yu Tianyi couldn't bear it any longer, and rushed out. Yu Chunxiao yelled a few times from behind, but he didn't stop him.

The servants of the Lin family were waiting for Madam's order, so Jiang Wen asked them to go over and watch, then looked at Yu Chunxiao and said, "Young master Yu is so unruly in other people's house, you have to be punished, it's not as good as your siblings will be in trouble for a while Be the same, after all, he is also complaining for you."

Yu Chunxiao fell softly to the ground, and nodded with tears in her eyes for a while. Jiang Wen was not in the mood to coax her, and then said: "It is said that someone betrayed you, but it is difficult to explain in detail. Now, there are two choices, either, you and the mermaid are dead, he should be worse than you; or, take this matter to get some ready-made benefits for you and your brother, you can discuss it yourself."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Wen stood up, stopped suddenly before leaving, turned around and said, "It's not two, but three choices, you can still fulfill him with your affection, tsk, selflessness!"

Lin Daiyu followed behind her mother, and asked with some hesitation: "Isn't mother worried that she will choose the third one?"

"What are you worried about? If you choose, send them out! Be selfless to others, selfish to yourself and your brother, that's a sick mind!"

In fact, for the first two, Jiang Wen can understand which one to choose, but if they decide, it must be more realistic to take advantage of it, and it is better for the Yu family siblings.

Of course, Jiang Wen had to admit that this didn't happen to her close relatives, otherwise she would have to peel off their skins and make them suffer!
