[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

Wang Hua heard that brother Ai finally spoke to him, and put down his arched hands: "It means that Brother Shen, you won the tenth place. It is Mr. Shen who put pressure on the examiner."

Wang Zifu's face turned dark when he heard this, and just about to say something to stop him, brother Ai has already taken the words: "It turned out that the words were actually made by Wang Gongzi, so it's no wonder that everyone in Yangzhou city knew it within a day. I don't think other families have such a big hand. They were able to spread this word to my inner house, so that my third brother can meet everyone in advance."

Wang Zifu pulled Wang Hua over, smiled at Brother Ai and said, "Nephew of the Shen family, you have misunderstood. Hua'er can't speak, and those words were just his own complaints, and he didn't want others to listen, so he spread rumors and didn't It was not passed on from my family."

"Oh, it's not from your family." Brother Ai's face became serious: "Then I don't understand. My father sent me to the examination room because I was young, and he was afraid that I would lose his love on the way. , how did it become pressure on the examiner when it came into the mouth of the prince? If you didn't think so in your heart, why bother to complain? Even if you complain, don't you have no place to hide at home, you have to go to the road Are you posting it where you want it to be heard?"

"This—" Even if he had made preparations at home that the Shen family would not let this matter go easily, Wang Zifu did not expect that brother Ai would choose to attack his father and son directly at the gate, and what he said was as difficult to answer as a knife .

Those who listened also took a deep breath, this young master of the Shen family is really difficult to deal with.Seeing that Shen Ren didn't intend to stop them, they knew that the Wang family's move had offended the Shen family. Everyone thought in their hearts that if they made such a move, they would be able to bear such questioning in full view.

Prince Fu blushed, and bowed his hands to Brother Ai, but Brother Ai stepped aside and could only say: "It's all because Hua'er is young and ignorant, I will definitely punish him when I go back."

Brother Ai nodded unhurriedly: "It turns out that Mr. Wang is young and ignorant." After speaking, he looked at Wang Hua meaningfully, and also looked at his own small body.The other people who participated in the three washing banquets followed his gaze to size up Wang Hua and him, and it was not difficult to find the difference in height between the two.

Some unkind people laughed out loud, and Yang Yi's voice was the loudest among them: "Is he younger than Shen Yue?" Yang Bao didn't stop him, so he had to block Yang Yi behind him bitterly.

"Master Shen," Wang Zifu couldn't explain to Brother Ai, so he had to turn to Shen Ren: "Master Shen, please be generous, I will go back and punish this rebellious son severely."

Shen Ren glanced at Brother Ai, showing the same smile as him: "Go back and punish severely? It turns out that the incident has happened for two or three days, and Master Wang will wait for my family to express its position before severely punishing Young Master Wang."

Everyone's discussion became louder, and Wang Zifu's face turned red and black, black and white, and he didn't know how to round up the conversation.

"What's the matter?" Yang Sen's voice came over, and when everyone looked at it, they realized that he didn't know when he got off the sedan chair, and he was looking at the crowd at the door wondering: "Didn't he come to congratulate the little son of Shen Zhizhou's family for the third time?" Why are all the gifts here?"

Wang Zifu hurriedly talked about his son's "unintentional mistake", and then expressed his sincerity and determination to plead guilty: "Even if he is young and ignorant, I will not tolerate this time."

Yang Sen nodded: "If you can't cut a jade, you can't make it into a tool. Young Master Ling really needs to be disciplined. Master Shen, even if Master Wang is so sincere, it's better not to take it personally."

Without waiting for Shen Ren to be in trouble, Brother Ai stepped forward to salute Yang Sen, and then protested: "Uncle Yang's love and affection are more and more deeply felt. It's just that Mr. Wang always said that Mr. Wang is young and ignorant, but he never thought about Shen As a scholar, Yue Yue has been tainted with such a reputation. In the future, if someone speaks to Jing Nai, how should Shen Yue defend? How would the nine students in front of Shen Yue defend? When Prince Wang complained in the street, he never thought about it. This is not selfish four words."

Scholars cherish feathers the most. Even if everyone knows this is a misunderstanding now, it will be troublesome to explain if someone really talks about it in the future.Brother Ai added another sentence:

"No less than a hundred people took the exam this time. The exam was suspected to be unfair. Even the examiner was dishonored. The nine students in front of me were also questioned. I only apologize to my Shen family, but Master Wang used family law to deal with Wang Hua. I'm afraid it's not right." Then he said softly to Yang Sen: "Yang Yi can take the exam with me, Uncle Yang."

If it wasn't for Yang Yi and Brother Ai to take the same exam, how could Yang Sen easily agree to Lin Ruhai's proposal and post the top ten exam papers?He glanced at the Wang family father and son with resentment, scolded in his heart that the success was not enough, and he was embarrassed: "What do you think?"

Ask your own opinion?Brother Ai looked at the old fox in front of him, and said with a smile: "How old am I, how many people have I met, and how many things have I experienced? It's just to express my grievances for Uncle Yang's reference." You can figure it out .

Brother Ai put his posture so low, Yang Sen had no choice but to turn his head to Shen Ren: "Master Shen?"

Shen Ren shook his head: "If it involves my son alone, it's still a private matter. If the magistrate insists on asking me to forgive the Wang family, I'll just bear with it. But even the dog knows that Wang Hua's words are not true. Questioning all the examiners and students in Yangzhou, causing a school of students to threaten to quit the exam, is not my Shen family's private matter. It is a business matter, and naturally the prefect must decide."

Yang Sen asked Shen Ren and his son to stay in the local area at once.Once again, he looked at the two masters of the Wang family with hatred, and secretly scolded them for wanting to strive for merit and to show their abilities in front of the prince, but they only played tricks, and now he could not save them.

"If that's the case, let's look at Wang Hua first and find out if he is instigating the students to drop the exam." Yang Sen had to make such a decision.

"Master Yang, you actually want to investigate my house?" Wang Zifu couldn't believe that Yang Sen had made such a decision: "We are all kings..."

"Even if you come from the royal family of Jinling, if the prince breaks the law, you are the same as the people, let alone you are a branch of the royal family." Yang Sen stared at the prince's clothes fiercely, the anger in his eyes almost never burned the prince's clothes to death on the spot, idiot!

That kind of staring eyes made Wang Zifu swallow all the words he hadn't finished speaking, and watched helplessly as his son was taken away by the yamen servants who came later, and he had no face to enter the gate of Zhizhou Mansion again, taking the undelivered gift ashes. yo leave.

As if Shen Ren and Brother Ai hadn't seen the unwillingness and hatred in the prince's eyes, they continued to welcome the guests calmly.All the guests weighed Shen Ren in their hearts, and understood that this person was not as kind and inactive as he had shown in the past.

The ladies in the inner house don't know about the lawsuit at the gate, but they still laugh and feast.While waiting, the governor's family sent a wife to fill the bowl for Brother Ming, and let these ladies pour out compliments without any money.

After the banquet was over, Daiyu was already too tired to fall asleep, and was placed directly in her yard by Brother Ai.Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he came to the main room to thank Jia Min who had not yet left: "Thanks to my wife for taking care of me today, tomorrow I will go to the house to kowtow to my wife."

Seeing him now, Jia Min could only smile: "Why do I have to be so polite? Didn't you greet people for your husband when Brother Kuan was a child? I have already heard about the outside things. Your husband and Mr. Shen are in the study Waiting for you. You don't have to worry about me, just discuss things with them. "

After hearing her words, he asked Jin'er to take care of her, and Brother Ai came to the study to meet Shen Ren and Lin Ruhai.As soon as he entered the room, he saw Lin Ruhai's complexion was not good, Brother Ai consciously stood in front of him, and stretched out his hand: "I was too arrogant today, sir, please punish me."

My father was just watching there, how could Lin Ruhai punish him?Sighing, he said to Shen Ren: "Nowadays, most of the officialdom in Yangzhou has followed Yang Sen and turned to the eldest prince. Even some dignified gentry like Wang Zifu have also joined forces. It's really funny."

Shen Ren also shook his head lightly: "This is just a prefecture in Yangzhou. It is said that everyone in Jinling is proud to serve the eldest prince. It used to be done in secret, but now they are competing to show off." Will do this Vanguard.

I'm afraid this eldest prince is not stupid, is he?Brother Ai suspects that the plot is self-correcting too much. In order to let the next emperor easily ascend to the throne, he directly put the eldest prince under the eyes of the saint and wait for it to be dealt with?

"More than that." Lin Ruhai chuckled: "How many salt merchants came to me and asked for more salt quotes, bluntly saying that they would share the money with the eldest prince after they got a profit. Some of them were too arrogant, I bluntly asked them to tell me Only by writing down the words can we suppress this evil wind."

Brother Ai couldn't help but frowned, Lin Ruhai's move was like tearing apart the face of the eldest prince.With the current power, if someone trips him up and gives Lin Ruhai eye drops in front of the present, Lin Ruhai, who considers himself a pure minister, will lose the trust of the present...

"Sir, don't be too aggressive."

"You still dare to say that I am too radical." Lin Ruhai was angry and funny: "What about today's incident?"

Brother Ai was not stopped by this question: "If the eldest prince dares to do such a thing, he must rely on him. How could the sage know that he is accumulating so much money? But he has been ignoring it all the time. It cannot be said that he is using the eldest prince."

Lin Ruhai was stunned after hearing this, he naturally felt that both the eldest prince and the saint acted abnormally.His habitual loyalty to the emperor made him not have the courage to doubt the present, and he was not as afraid of the imperial power as Ai Geer, a later generation. He also had the original book as a basis, so he dared to make bold assumptions and carefully verify.Lin Ruhai could only bite the bullet and directly veto all the people and things that were not in the interests of the saint.

Now Brother Ai wants to suspect that the sage is using the eldest prince, and the impact on Lin Ruhai is not small.Thinking carefully about the orders issued by the sages in recent years, Lin Ruhai had to admit that Brother Ai was right.It turned out that he was blinded by a leaf, but now that he took the leaf away, something suddenly became clear.

"Could it be that the sage and the eldest prince are so suspicious of father and son?" Shen Ren didn't know whether to sigh or ask.

Brother Ai said in his heart, you don't know that there is a Prince Yizhong who has broken things!He also thought that Lin Ruhai had already broken his face with the First Prince anyway, so he might as well be ruthless to him directly: "Sir, don't you have the right to tell the truth?"

"Who told you?" Lin Ruhai's expression changed suddenly, and he couldn't help looking at Shen Ren.Shen Ren also had a dazed expression on his face, and he said together with Lin Ruhai: "What is Hu Qin?" Seeing Lin Ruhai looking at him with suspicion, he looked at Brother Ai even more unkindly.

Brother Ai said with a relaxed face: "Yang Yi." Anyway, that's a big mouth, and he really told himself his father's guess.

Lin Ruhai's face became even more ugly: "What else did he say?"

Brother Ai said: "I didn't say anything at all, I just sighed once and said a few words, sir, even if I get the favor in the future, even I will be honored in the future." After speaking, he curled his lips in his heart, and in the original book, even Lin Daiyu, his own daughter, didn't get the slightest benefit Well, as a student myself, it's not bad if I don't give up.

Lin Ruhai knew that it must be Yang Sen who told Yang Yi about this, and he couldn't show it in his heart: "What are you talking about?" He didn't admit it, but he didn't deny it either.

Brother Ai directly expressed his own idea: "Since you can tell the sage directly, you should also tell the sage about the situation in the south of the Yangtze River, and talk about your own difficulties. Otherwise, the sage will only watch Now that the salt tax is getting less and less, you have to think that the husband doesn't do his best, isn't it a sense of injustice?"

"Working for a sage, how can..." Lin Ruhai couldn't continue, and he already understood that brother Ai's words were letting him be a child who could cry.Although there is some resistance, I also know that with my own strength, I can withstand it for a while but not for a long time.

"How far is the gentleman from Beijing, and how close is the eldest prince to the sage. What's more, he has many followers. If one person speaks ill of the sage in front of the sage, how long can the sage trust him? A word of wisdom makes money, so let's not let someone plot against you." , why not tell the sage about your own difficulties first. In this way, even if someone slanders you in front of the sage, the sage can still think about it for you." Brother Ai simply made it clear.

Shen Ren just listened and didn't speak, his heart was churning like Lin Ruhai: It's a pity that this kid doesn't want to learn how to be an official, but sees the officialdom so thoroughly.He also thought that he had already passed the government examination, and the date of the hospital examination is not far away. Talents under ten years old are rare after all. When he is picked up by others, I am afraid that he will change his mind and look at brother Ai again. Get hot.

This made Brother Ai's back feel cold: "Second Master?"

Only then did Shen Ren close his gaze: "There will be a college exam next. Even if someone doubts your results in the government exam, you must prepare well for the college exam, and strive to do better than the government exam, so as to block those people's attention." Mouth."

How to change the subject like this?Brother Ai took a deep look at Shen Ren, but found that he was not uncomfortable at all, so he nodded in resignation.

After Lin Ruhai brought Jia Min Daiyu home that day, he never told Brother Ai about his secret recitations, but explained the Four Books and Five Classics to Brother Ai in detail.When Shen Ren heard that Lin Ruhai had changed his teaching, he stopped teaching Brother Ai and devoted himself to enlightening Brother Xun.

When Mrs. Fang was confinement, he went to the Lin Mansion to thank Jia Min once again for all the courtesy.Jia Min cleaned up his home again, dismissed a few that seemed inappropriate, and the two back houses were run like iron drums.

At this time, brother Ai can rest assured to prepare for the exam, and he can still devote his mind to caring about the successor of the Wang family.Yang Sen didn't know how he negotiated with Jingzhong, he actually regarded Wang Hua as the culprit who instigated the students to stop the exam, and Wang Fu no longer cared about his son's life in prison, and took his whole family to move out of Yangzhou up.But not long after their family left Yangzhou, they encountered water bandits. The boat they were on was punctured, and the family, including the master and servants, were buried underwater.

Even though he felt something was wrong in his heart, Brother Ai still didn't ask Yang Yi about this matter - although that kid has a rough heart, he always has Yang Bao by his side, and besides always taking advantage of others, Brother Ai's own conscience is not justified.

For a while, the city of Yangzhou was calm on the bright side, which made people feel a little unreal.Fortunately, brother Ai can hold his breath, and Lin Ruhai and Shen Ren can hold their breath even more. The two governments tacitly only do what should be done, and ignore everything else.Even Jia Min and Fang Shi also pushed back the entertainment that could be pushed. The reason is that there are candidates in the family, so please bear with us.

Under such a somewhat weird atmosphere, the college examination was approaching day by day, Brother Ai was thinking about making an appointment with Mr. Li, and told Shen Ren that he wanted Mr. Li to go to the provincial capital with him.I don't know what Shen Ren and Mr. Li said, but they actually appeared at the pier with Brother Ai on the day of departure.

"Shen Yue." Yang Yi waved at Brother Ai again from a distance, while Yang Bao was still watching with a smile.Brother Ai went forward to introduce Mr. Li to them, and after the two sides gave way, he smiled and said to Yang Yi: "This time Mr. Li is with me, so I won't bother you."

Yang Bao smiled slightly after hearing this: "This time, Yi'er is only going to the provincial capital alone, and I'm going to ask Mr. Li to take care of it."

Brother Ai was a little curious: "Brother Yang won't follow?"

Yang Yi hurriedly said: "He also has to prepare for this year's autumn, and my father said that I would only make trouble for him and not allow him to be distracted." Then he pulled Ai and whispered: "Actually, the family wants to show him. "

Brother Ai listened and took a careful look at Yang Bao. This is already a 13-year-old boy, and according to the practice of this world, he can be seen.It's just that Yang Sen, who wanted to go to Beijing to follow the dragon, why did he want to show his eldest son to Yangzhou?

Along the way, Brother Ai was gossiping about Yang Bao's meeting, and Yang Yi told everything she knew: the person who wanted to meet was not in Yangzhou, but the eldest daughter of Jinling Tongzhi Liu Peng's family. Although the distance between the two places is close, it is not as convenient as a city. Some details have not yet been finalized, and they have not been disclosed to the outside world yet.

Brother Ai felt strange when he heard this: Yang Sen was born in a serious imperial examination, and his uncle also served as the left servant of the official department, and was also a civil servant. Why did the eldest daughter-in-law who looked at him turn out to be a girl from a military general's family?At the beginning when Shen Ren appointed Daiyu for him, Lin Ruhai himself was an ex-convict, and Mrs. Shen and others were quite dissatisfied because Jia Min came from a martial arts family. Yang Sen actually went against the grain?

"Do you know how talented that girl is?" Brother Ai had a smirk on his face: "Brother Yang is going to take the Qiuwei exam soon, and he must be willing to add fragrance to his red sleeves. If his literary talent is not good, can Brother Yang be willing?"

Yang Yi curled her lips: "He didn't want to from the beginning to the end, but his father had a life, so he had to be anxious. Why don't you think he didn't send me to rush for the exam this time? It's not because the Liu family lives in Jinling. I'm afraid people will take the opportunity to look at him."

It turned out to be the case.Brother Ai nodded: "If I don't want to, Liu Tongzhi's family is a general, and Brother Yang may not be able to borrow much strength in the future."

"Tch, what do you know." Yang Yi put on a mysterious look: "Listen to my father, Liu Tongzhi will make great contributions immediately, if he doesn't get involved in this marriage before he makes great achievements, my family will not be able to get involved in the future if they want to. up."

"It's not wartime now," Brother Ai smiled nonchalantly: "How can a general be so good at making meritorious deeds." After speaking, my heart skipped a beat, and the smile on my face could hardly be maintained.

Yang Yi only thought that he didn't know what was going on here when he was young, and even though he didn't know much about it, he explained it to Brother Ai: "What do you know, it doesn't mean that only generals in wartime can make meritorious deeds. Who doesn't know that everyone in Jinling The eldest prince is respected, and so is Liu Tongzhi. In the future, think about it."

Brother Ai made a nervous look: "Second brother Yang, let's stop talking about that." After speaking, he deliberately looked around, only to see the vast water and sky, and occasional sand gulls tumbling in mid-air, passing by None of the ships.

Yang Yi smiled nonchalantly, seeing Brother Ai's face changed, so she stopped mentioning it.Waiting for Brother Ai to propose that he wants to go back to his room to rest, and regretting that he shouldn't scare him, he personally sent him to the house on the boat, and said a few words before returning to his own room.

When Mr. Li saw Brother Ai entering the room, the color on his face didn't slow down, so he couldn't help but ask, "It's not very windy today, why is it windy?"

I took a hard look at Mr. Li, and there was really no one to use, so I had to ask tentatively: "Mr. Li, may I believe you?"

Seeing his solemn expression, Mr. Li couldn't help smiling: "What can you believe or not? Your father personally came to ask me to teach you, and promised that you would support me in the future. He also said that you have no intention of becoming an official, so I just arrived." your home."

Brother Ai let go of the stone in his heart, and said solemnly: "The trouble is serious. It's not that the students are worried about Mr., but because the lives of the Shen family and the Lin family are entrusted to the husband."

These words made Mr. Li look serious: "But what did Yang Yi tell you?"

Brother Ai nodded lightly, and told Shuang'an to come and watch five steps away from the door, and then whispered what Yang Yi said just now about Liu Tongzhi's great achievements in the near future.Seeing that Mr. Li was still frowning and thinking, he said anxiously: "Sir, I know that in addition to his duty of patrolling salt and censorship, Mr. Lin also supervises the affairs of the south of the Yangtze River on behalf of the saint. If Mr. Lin remains silent on such a big matter, I am afraid it will happen in the future." ..."

Mr. Li took a fixed look at the nine-year-old child in front of him, only to realize that his stature had grown almost to his shoulders at some point, his long face was serious at the moment, and his big eyes were full of anxiety and firmness, a little Her thin lips were tightly pressed together, and she looked at herself nervously.

As if already in the form of a boy.

"Do you want to?" Mr. Li still asked: "The next day is the hospital examination, although you have time to go back and forth, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Yang Yi to say something."

Brother Ai smiled wryly: "So I still have to work, Mr. Labor."

When I got off the boat, Mr. Li didn’t know if he was not used to the water, his face was so pale that it was frightening. Yang Yi was still trying to take him to his own house to recuperate. , I don’t want my health to fail, and I have an old disease. I didn’t bring the medicine in Zhuangzi, so I had to go back. You two are good students, if I can bear it tomorrow, I will come back. If I can’t bear it, I have to wait in Yangzhou. Good news for you."

Brother Ai had to send Mr. Li back to Yangzhou by himself, but he was persuaded by Yang Yi and Mr. Li before he gave up. He let Laifu find the boat himself and watched him escort Mr. Li to the boat to set sail.

"You don't have to worry. Didn't Mr. Li say that he has medicine on Zhuangzi?" Yang Yi persuaded Brother Ai when he saw his frowning.

Brother Ai just nodded: "If it wasn't for sending me off, sir wouldn't have to suffer such a crime."

Yang Yi felt that he was just a teacher who taught painting, and he was not a serious teacher. Seeing Brother Ai's respectful face, he didn't think much of it in his heart, so he talked to him for a while, and saw Brother Ai's expression softened. After a while, he said that he would go to visit Shijiang first: "I always come to the provincial capital once, it's not good to see each other."

Brother Ai only cares about whether Mr. Li can deliver the news to Lin Ruhai in time, and he doesn't want to go around with the Shi family too much in the future.

Until the two entered the arena, Mr. Li did not come to Jinling, and there was still no sign of him when he came out. Brother Ai just took advantage of this to push back the play suggested by Yang Yi, and asked Shuangyue to go back to Yangzhou to inquire about news.

Yang Yi felt that he made a fuss: "We just want to get the news earlier, if you are impatient, you can go back earlier."

Brother Ai shook his head again: "Forget it, wasn't it dangerous enough last time? If you come out like that again, you can still defend yourself if you stay here." Yang Yi also felt that what he said was reasonable, so she left him to guard the house. I meet the students everywhere without mentioning it.

Fortunately, the results of the college examination were not slow to come out. Brother Ai ranked eighth, and Yang Yi also ranked 23rd.The teacher saw that brother Ai was selected as a scholar when he was only nine years old, and he had paid attention to his handwriting. He praised him a lot during the interview, and asked him to write a picture of himself in public, and everyone saw it The students are convinced - writing is the most test of how much effort a person puts in, it's not about practicing hard every day. At my age, I would never be able to write such majestic characters.

There was a sensation in the provincial capital for a while, everyone knew that a nine-year-old scholar who was very good at books was born this year.Under the banner of caring, Shi Mu asked Shi Jiang to invite Yang Yi and Brother Ai to stay in the house for half a day, and ordered him to leave a letter before letting him go.As a result, the Yang family's house was hardly surrounded by those who sent the posts, so Brother Ai discussed with Yang Yi that he had to go back to Yangzhou first.

Yang Yi has been very happy these days, so she doesn't want Brother Ai to go back: "After all, there are only two of us left, and we are about to swim freely. Your words really spoil the fun."

Brother Ai said: "Mr. Li hasn't heard from him all this time, and Laifu, the dog, didn't know to send a letter. I'm really worried."

Yang Yi had no choice but to watch Brother Ai get on the boat, and she was still learning Japanese with the students.Brother Ai's place is smooth sailing, when the boat arrived at Yangzhou pier, it was Laifu who came to pick him up: "My lord, hurry back to the mansion, a letter from Beijing said that the grandfather is not in good health, and the second master is in a hurry, looking for good medicinal materials. "

Shen Xueshi is not in good health at this time?Brother Ai's heart sank for a moment, he has been in Jiangnan for four years and has been on zero for four years, considering that Bachelor Shen is also a rare person, some illnesses are unavoidable.

Nodding to show that he heard, Brother Ai got into the car and hurried back to the mansion. When he arrived at the gate of the mansion, he saw that Brother Xun was led by Shen Cheng to wait for him at the door. What if one can't stand it?"

Seeing him get off the car, Brother Xun jumped up early, and Shen Cheng didn't care about his training, so he congratulated Brother Ai: "I heard that brother was selected as a scholar, so I'm here to be happy." With five similar faces and squinted eyes, it's hard for people to get angry.

Resigned to his fate, he asked his brother's nose, and successfully turned the boy's smiling face into a bitter face, so he asked Shen Cheng: "Is the second master at home?"

Shen Cheng frantically followed the two brothers, nodded with a smile all the way, and said, "The second master is waiting for the young master in the main room. If it wasn't for the second master to speak, the servant would not dare to take the second young master out."

Hearing him go out to pick himself, brother Ai nodded and counted, and stopped at the second gate and asked Shen Cheng: "The news from me came back, did the second master reward you?"

"Yes, the second master rewards everyone for a month. Everyone is waiting for the young master to come back and kowtow to the young master." Seeing that brother Ai had already raised his legs and walked to the inner house, Shen Cheng quietly wiped the sweat from his forehead. The son is more dignified than the second master.

"Greetings to father and mother, luckily the son did not disgrace his life." Brother Ai kowtowed to Shen Ren and Fang Shi who were sitting in the front seat.Fang stood up by himself and pulled him up to look him over: "It's hard for you, you go out alone at such a young age."

Shen Ren coughed, seeing that Fang Shi still refused to let go, he could only open his mouth and said: "Finally, I got a higher score than in the government examination, and it's justified."

Brother Ai looked at him with a smile: "I heard that the second master rewarded someone, but do you have something good for me?"

"Reward you with two rewards." Shen Ren couldn't help laughing: "Who allowed you to let Mr. Li come back first?"

Brother Ai was still grinning: "I was terrified when I heard it at the time, and I was afraid of letting the servants spread the word, and I thought that Mr. Li was invited by the second master himself, so I can always trust it."

The matter was not badly done, and Shen Ren and Lin Ruhai got some opportunities.Although it was Lin Ruhai who benefited the most, the Shen family had taken precautions in advance, and Shen Ren couldn't utter his curse words no matter what.

Mrs. Fang still felt that the eldest son should make up for the loss of weight. Shen Ren had already said: "Go back and wash up, and thank you sir. Mr. Jingli is not in good health. You can go back to Beijing in two days."

Not to mention that Brother Ai couldn't accept Shen Ren's decision all of a sudden, even Mrs. Fang held onto Brother Ai's hand tightly: "This journey will take a month or so, how can he bear it alone."

Shen Renchang sighed: "If it weren't for my involuntary control, I should have returned to my grandfather's bed to fulfill my filial piety. He behaved fairly well, and Mr. Li also agreed to accompany him to Beijing, and it would be fine to bring a few more people. gone."

Since the matter was unchangeable, Brother Ai accepted it faster than Fang Shi: "Don't worry, grandma, there will be a master, wife, and uncle and aunt when I return to Beijing. I won't suffer."

Fang's eyes were already red: "You have grown so big, why have you ever left me?"

Brother Ai still persuaded her with a smile, only saying that if he went back, he would be considered studying and would not delay his homework. Moreover, Fang would have more time to take care of Brother Xun and Brother Wen after he left, and he could do less work. Heart and other words.

Fang's tears made him say it all at once: "Whenever you let me worry about it, you are more caring than me even if you are asking brother."

Brother Xun just howled there: "I'll go with my brother too, I don't care about my brother, he can't talk, he just cries every day."

Shen Ren seemed to be unable to hear the chaos in the main room, he only looked left and right at his eldest son.At this time, the nanny who knew brother's son brought him again, saying that he woke up and wanted to find Mrs. Fang.Brother Ai stepped forward to pick it up and handed it to Mrs. Fang, and said with a smile, "I seem to have grown up a lot."

Fang was afraid of scaring his younger son, so he withdrew his tears: "Not all children are like this, they grow up when they don't see mistakes. When we see each other next time, I don't know if he will recognize you or not." He said with tears Going out again.

Brother Ai hurriedly said: "Why don't you recognize me? After I return to Beijing, I often draw a small portrait of myself. Grandma will show him more often. If he dares not recognize me, then I will teach his grandma not to feel bad."

Brother Xun hurriedly brushed off his sense of existence: "I'll show him, and I'll teach him a lesson."

"In the future you will be a big brother, don't bully him, you know?" Brother Ai talked to Brother Xun patiently this time, and even took out a piece of candy to give him: "If you have good things, remember to share them well." brothers."

Brother Xun is still unhappy: "Don't let Sister Yu play with him."

Only then did Brother Ai remember what he had forgotten, and said to Fang: "Grandma, please take care of Yu'er. In fact, it would be good to pick her up to relieve grandma's boredom."

Mrs. Fang listened and nodded his forehead: "I don't know what kind of child Yu'er is. I wish she would come here every day. Now that child is more and more like a elder sister. For Brother Xun and Brother Kuan Everyone is patient. I'm afraid your teacher's wife won't let her come over."

Brother Ai knows very well that Daiyu is still young, and the two families move around well, so they can pick up a few more times. If she is older, she will always go to the house, and someone will gossip.So he smiled and admitted his fault, and went to tease Brother Familiar again.

Only then did Shen Ren speak: "Go back to your own yard to wash up, and it's time to go to your husband's."

Lin's Mansion is a place where Brother Ai often comes and goes, and when he arrives at the door, the doorman has long been fawning over and calling Qian: "Congratulations, Young Master High School."

Even Brother Ai just smiled, nodded and entered the house. Daiyu had already followed him at the second gate: "Congratulations brother, high school."

This sentence is worth tens of thousands of others, Brother Ai smiled and said: "But is there any congratulatory gift, I just don't recognize this sentence."

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes fluttered: "Only this, brother really doesn't want it?" After speaking, she tilted her head and looked at brother Ai, intending to argue with him if she dared to say no.

Brother Ai had no choice but to beg for mercy: "Congratulations from a younger sister are naturally worth more than any good things others send."

Daiyu's almond eyes curled up with a smile when she heard this, and she took out something with her small hand behind her back and shook it at Brother Ai: "Then I'll keep this." Looking carefully, it was a twisted root. the tapestry.

Brother Ai didn't care about the color and shape of the tape, so he took Daiyu's hand to look carefully. Fortunately, it was still delicate and tender, neither rough nor deformed, and he let out a sigh of relief: "This kind of thing You don’t need to do it yourself, there are many needleworkers at home.”

Gu Momo turned her head silently, just as if she hadn't seen this scene: let alone five years old girls from other people's families have to start distinguishing colors, seeing patterns, and learning to match from three years old. When I was hit, I proposed to learn it. In the past few days, only such a thing came out, and this person felt distressed again.

Fortunately, my wife can give me a few words of persuasion.Gu Momo's heart had just let go, but after hearing Brother Ai's first words after greeting Jia Min, she lifted it up again.Brother Ai said to Jia Min seriously: "Yu'er is naturally ingenious, but now that she is growing up, she learned needlework too early, and her hands are not easy to take care of."

Jia Min stared blankly at Brother Ai, not knowing where he got his words from. When she saw the sash in Brother Ai's hand, Jia Min wanted to cover her face: When she was three or four years old, I already know how to hit this thing, even if I hit it loosely with a weak hand, it's not so crooked.Just such a thing, can you still be tired?

Could it be that he is a stepmother?For a moment, Jia Min wondered if she had mistreated Daiyu, so she listened to Brother Ai who was still explaining: "Even when reading, the teacher's wife should always advise Yu'er not to read for too long or hurt her eyes. Gentlemen stay away." Yu’er doesn’t need to learn how to make soup, she only knows a few recipes, what do those cooks do…”

Seeing that Nanny Gu was also at a loss, Jia Min powerlessly interrupted Brother Ai's words: "Your husband is about to leave the office, you go to the door to pick him up."

ah?Brother Ai didn't know that he was disgusted by others, he looked at the sky outside, and found that it was indeed the time for Lin Ruhai to leave the office, so he promised to pull Daiyu away.

Jia Min couldn't even arouse the interest to stop her, so she stopped Nanny Gu: "Brother Ai, you have other things, why did you mention what Yu'er learned?" It's not that I don't want to teach my daughter, it's your family. My master is too stung by a scorpion.

Gu Momo also smiled wryly: "Probably because of going back to Beijing?"

It was then that Jia Min remembered that he had heard from Lin Ruhai a few days ago that Shen Ren intended to let Brother Ai go back to Beijing to fulfill his filial piety, and said to Nanny Gu, "Is it really not possible? Let him go alone?"

In the study, Lin Ruhai was also asking Brother Ai this question: "Are you going back to Beijing alone?"

I would like to take Daiyu with me, so you have to agree.Brother Ai only dares to think in his heart, but respectful on his face
