Facts have proved that those who can win the first prize at the age of 18 may not be able to solve the Rubik's Cube. Jiang Kangning, who is known as a child prodigy by everyone, has only solved the second and third-order Rubik's cubes, not to mention the tenth-order Rubik's cube, and he is still competing with the fourth-order Rubik's cube at night. Old Cen, HOHO, a former fourth-rank bachelor, also stopped at fourth-rank Rubik's Cube. Wang Qing only managed to master the second level, but Nizi gave up completely, and she can't handle the second level.
Basically, all adults stopped at the fourth-order Rubik's Cube, and Wang Shijing also surrendered. This thing looks simple, but it is too difficult to operate in practice. Shao Yun'an was very aware of his abilities, so he didn't even try to challenge the difficult ones. But the most shocking one is Jiang Moxi. When adults were blocked by the fourth-order Rubik's cube, he actually solved the fifth-order Rubik's cube and went straight to the sixth-order.
It's time to go to bed, Jiang Moxi is still fighting against the sixth-order Rubik's Cube. The tip of his nose was covered with sweat, and his eyes were bright, as if he had finally found something that he found challenging.
The New Year's dinner and dinner that everyone plays Rubik's Cube is not in the mood to eat. Shao Yun'an had no choice but to say: "I can't lose this thing. I'll continue when I wake up tomorrow. Mr. Cen, it's time for you to rest. It's late, and you'll get dizzy if you stare at it. Brother Qing, Nizi, go to bed." Said Then, he also took a picture of Wang Shijing-X.
Wang Shijing put down the third-order Rubik's Cube that he had played with several times, but it was not yet fully consolidated, and spoke as the head of the family: "It's getting late, it's time to rest. Brother Qing, Nizi, tomorrow you will If you go to pay New Year's greetings with dad and little dad, you have to get up early."
Wang Qing put down the second-order Rubik's cube reluctantly, but Nizi hadn't taken her eyes off the sixth-order Rubik's cube in Jiang Moxi's hand. Now Nizi looks at Jiang Moxi with eyes full of admiration. Shao Yun'an stepped forward and hugged Nizi directly, and Jiang Kangchen shamefully put down the fifth-order Rubik's Cube, which he had no clue about, to hug his son. It's not that Jiang Kangchen has already conquered the fourth-order Rubik's Cube, but that the fourth-order Rubik's Cube was hit by Cen Laoba.
Jiang Kangchen picked up Jiang Moxi, who still didn't let go, and went to wash and sleep. Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an took Qing Geer and Nizi back to their respective rooms to sleep. Mrs. Cen was in charge of his wife, and everyone else, whatever, it was Chinese New Year anyway. Today is the first day of junior high school, and I was going to pay New Year's greetings to several families. As a result, Wang Shijing, the head of the family, played his game regardless of "right work", and Shao Yun'an was not proud of that wordy person.
Back in the room, Wang Shijing said aftertaste, "This Rubik's Cube is quite interesting."
Shao Qu'an smiled: "I didn't know you would like it so much. This set is all square, and there are other styles in the space."
Wang Shijing felt a little embarrassed, smiled and lowered his head to kiss his daughter-in-law's mouth, and asked, "There must be a lot of fun at your door, right?"
"Yes, but I'm past the age of playing toys. If I didn't cooperate with you today, I would prefer to play mahjong. I really didn't expect Mr. Cen and the others to like it so much. Why don't you remove the Rubik's Cube in the space— Set up to see how to do it, and then make a few sets to give away?"
"Okay. This is a good gift. Only one set can't be played. I think Brother Xi may be able to play the most difficult one in a few days."
"He is a young talent, no matter whether he is autistic or not, at least he is definitely a genius in some aspects. If Lingrui and Lingquan are effective for him, then brother Xi will be great in the future. Tell me, should we take Xi Do you want me to guide you in a certain direction? Brother Kang Chen shed tears several times today, he is very bitter."
"It's up to you, daughter-in-law, and I will listen to you."
"Well, I will observe and observe again, and think again."
Back in the room, Wang Shijing stopped playing. He talked to his wife, kissed her lips, and touched her again. Wang Qing and Nizi felt tired when they returned to the room, and fell asleep after washing and going to bed.
In Jiang Kangchen's guest room. He held his sleeping son in his arms and wept quietly, but there was a comforting smile on his face. Jiang Moxi fell asleep, but her hands were still tightly holding the sixth-order Rubik's Cube. Jiang Kangchen gently wiped away the tears that fell on his son's eyes. At this moment, only he himself knows how much he misses a person. I want to tell him that their son is not a fool, their son is very smart.
Lying on the bed, Elder Cen still had his eyes open. Mrs. Cen closed her eyes and muttered: "Why aren't you sleeping? It's already so late. Even though it's Chinese New Year, you are getting old after all, don't stay up."
Mr. Cen stared at the top of the bed and said: "Brother Xi, maybe Yunan and Shijing can really cure him. Yunan made some Guyuan ointment for the queen, saying it is good for the body. If the queen eats the Guyuan ointment To be able to give birth to a prince, Yun'an is definitely my first-strange person in Dayan. I have been looking forward to what he can bring to Dayan. Perhaps, my expectations are still a little low."
Mrs. Cen opened her eyes and turned her head: "What background do you think An Geer is? How come he has so many wonderful ideas? Could it be that he is really a strange person? Then why didn't he show it before? He was forced to marry by his family. It's not that the Wang family is greedy for money, he married Shi Jing by mistake, otherwise, wouldn't it be ruined for him to marry Wang Zhisong."
Old Cen said: "Kang Ning said that Yun'an is the adopted son of the family, and the way his adoptive parents adopted him was not in a serious way. Yun'an doesn't remember who his biological parents are, and he doesn't want to cause trouble. He doesn't want to discuss this matter again. It’s okay to pursue Kang Ning. He died once, and the huge gap between before and after has a lot to do with steadiness. The emperor means not to investigate more, so you and I will be confused. This strange person and strange incident are not ordinary people like us. It's clear. Besides, Yun An is very suitable for me, and I am willing to make friends with him, but I can't help worrying that he will be too popular and cause trouble."
Mrs. Cen was puzzled: "With the emperor, the queen and your elder brother Weng Lao, will he be in danger?"
Old Cen sighed: "The emperor, the queen, and senior brothers are not the only ones in the court. The tea and wine must have attracted the attention of the Hengyuan Marquis Mansion. Behind Kang Ning and Kang Chen, there is a trouble in the Duke's Mansion. The hostility between the former emperor's old party and the Dai's family is a disaster, for these people, no matter how wonderful Yun'an is, he is just a grassroots person, life and death are not important."
Mrs. Cen stopped worrying: "You mean, Yun'an will be in danger?"
Cen Laodao: "Not really. It's just that I'm afraid it will cause trouble in the future. I have to write another letter to my brother. I have never met a junior who suits me like Yun An in my life. Although I am not in the temple, I still have to do my best. According to the Buddha. I hope that his Gu Yuanqing can really cure the queen and let the queen salivate on the dragon heir, so that no one can touch him."
Mrs. Cen couldn't help being surprised: "The Guyuan ointment is really so miraculous?"
Old Cen said: "I hope so. Yun'an is also making it for us. This Guyuan ointment needs to be soaked in rice wine to make donkey-hide gelatin for at least ten days. The ones in his hands will be given to the queen first. You and I have to wait for a while." .”
Mrs. Cen couldn't help being relieved: "Yun An and Shi Jing are kind people."
Mr. Cen laughed and said, "He told Kang Ning that he wanted Kang Ning to be his big backer. He also told me that he should respect me well and ask me to send Brother Qing to the Imperial College in the future. This little fox will flatter you Be fair and aboveboard." With the smile on his face gone, Old Cen sighed: "If the queen can have a queen, the emperor will trust Yun'an even more, this is his biggest backer." Turning to his wife, Cen The old man said solemnly: "You teach Nizi more rules on weekdays, let her practice the piano well, and regardless of whether the Guyuan ointment is effective or not, in my opinion, Yunan and Shijing will definitely go to the capital in the future. Whether it is Qing Whether you are a brother or a girl, you must know the rules you should know."
Seeing her husband explaining so carefully, Mrs. Cen became more cautious and nodded yes.
If Shao Yun'an knew that Elder Cen was so worried about him, he would definitely hug Elder Cen with emotion. He said every day that he wanted Jiang Kangning to be his backer, and he wanted Mr. Cen to send Brother Qing to the Imperial College, so he gave more gifts and hugged his thighs tightly, but in fact, as a person who traveled alone, in the thousand years of ancient times with no relatives and no reason, Why didn't he really want to find more relatives and friends for himself. He was so happy that Mr. Cen and his wife took the initiative to come to celebrate the New Year.
The next day, Wang Shijing's family got up normally. Elder Cen and his wife just woke up, both of them slept soundly the night before, and I don't know if it's because of their brains. Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu also got up. Guo Zimu was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, and Guo Ziyu was preparing the New Year gifts that Wang Shijing would bring for New Year's greetings today. Not to mention, with Guo Ziyu as a legitimate butler, Shao Yun'an was less worried. Which one of these houses pays particular attention to what kind of New Year's gifts they give, Shao Yun'an, a modern person, doesn't know this.
Elder Cen lives at home, so Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing don't have to go to Elder Cen's house. Breakfast is millet porridge with meat buns and spicy cabbage. After breakfast, Shao Yun'an and Wang Shijing went out to celebrate the New Year with Brother Qing and Nizi. Elder Cen was already playing Rubik's Cube over there again, and Mrs. Cen shook her head helplessly, worried about his wife's eyes and neck.
The first stop the couple went to was Li Zheng's house. For the arrival of Wang Shijing's family, how enthusiastic and enthusiastic should the family be, Shao Yun'an's goosebumps got layer after layer of enthusiasm. There are also many people who come to Lizheng's house to pay New Year's greetings, many of them are members of the Zhao clan. Seeing Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an is not to mention how enthusiastic they are, and they also show great love for Wang Qing and Nizi. One side praises Wang Qing for studying well, and the other praises that Nizi is getting more and more beautiful. Help, how could they have received such "treatment" when they are so tall.
But these people are not talking nonsense. In the eyes of the villagers, Wang Qing, who can go to Baiyue Academy to study, is already a scholar who can go to the Imperial College to directly take the examination for scholar. This is different from Zhao Congbo and Wang Yan. Zhao Congbo and Wang Yan are under Wang Qing's favor. Now Wang Qing is no longer the pitiful wretch who was bullied by others and has parents but is almost like an orphan, but a rich man who has aroused the envy and hatred of many people. Many families with daughters have moved their minds to marry . And Nizi made all the women in the village envy and hate her.
Nizi is wearing a bright satin padded jacket, plus a gown of the same fabric. The lower body is a silk skirt, and she also wears a pink satin beige. She couldn't afford to dress like this, even Lizheng and Sun's family, who were the most profitable in the village except Wang Shijing's family, couldn't bear to make such clothes for their children.
Looking at Nizi's dress again, Mrs. Cen combed Nizi with two round buns, which is the most common bun for little girls. Don't look at the beautiful glass hairpins on the two buns, a pair of sapphire and pearl inlaid earrings on the ears, and two sapphire thin bracelets on the left wrist. If it wasn't for the fact that the villagers would see Nizi every day, at first glance, she would seem to be a lady from an official family. For farmers, having a silver bracelet is a dream come true, let alone a jade bracelet that is more precious than gold.
Wang Qing and Nizi's bodies have changed drastically. ——In the beginning, there were quite a few people in the village who waited for the two children of Wang Shijing's family to have a stepfather with the mentality of watching a good show, and it would be even worse. Now, who doesn't envy these two children, it is happier to have a stepfather than to have a mother.
The New Year's greetings that Guo Ziyu prepared for Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an were not expensive, and they made food at home. Wang Shijing's family is the richest family in the village, and the New Year's gift they gave was too expensive. How will the other party return the gift. It's more polite to send some homemade rare food.
After sitting at Lizheng's house for a while, and repeatedly declining invitations to stay for lunch, Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an took their two children to the patriarch Wang Wenhe's house to pay New Year's greetings. Since Shao Yun'an sent Wang Yan to Baiyue Academy, Wang Wenhe's mentality has changed significantly. Already disappointed with Mrs. Wang and Wang Zhisong, now seeing Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an is like seeing his own son. When the two entered the room, Wang Wenhe's enthusiasm was definitely comparable to Li Zheng's.
Wang Wenhe's wife, Wang Shenshi, and daughter-in-law, Wang Qianshi, almost burst out laughing when they saw Shao Yun'an. Wang Wenhe's married daughter happened to return to her natal home today. When I saw Shao Yun'an, I was very grateful to Shao Yun'an for sending the only grandson of the Wang family to Baiyue Academy. He also took his one son and two daughters to kowtow to Shao Yun'an to pay New Year's greetings, which made Shao Yun'an very embarrassed. Wang Wenhe's daughter is Wang Jing, the eldest daughter, 6 years older than Wang Shuping, and married very early.
Wang Jing gave birth to three children. The eldest son, Xu Lin, was 16 years old. He had studied in a private school for several years, but he had not been admitted to Tong Shenglang, so he stopped studying. Worked as an errand runner in the veterinary hospital affiliated to the county government, and followed suit to learn skills. Wang Jing's husband's family is a big family, and there is no division. Uncles and aunts live together. The second uncle of Xu Huaili, Wang Jing's husband, is a juren, and the second uncle's family is the head of the whole family. Although Xu Huaili is the eldest son, but for this reason, in her husband's family, the second uncle is the head of the family, and the parents-in-law are more inclined to the second uncle's house, so they, the eldest son, have to be careful everywhere.
Wang Wenhe is the patriarch, but he is only the patriarch of the Wang clan in Xiushui Village. When Wang Jing got married, she also thought that the Xu family was a big family, and Xu Huaili was the eldest son, and he was honest and responsible. Unexpectedly, after 18 years, Xu Huaili not only failed to take charge of the family, Wang Jing, the sister-in-law, had to watch the faces of her younger siblings everywhere, and the three children in the family had to be patient with their cousins. Xu Lin has liked veterinarians since he was a child, and he found the position of veterinary servant by himself, so he was often laughed at for this reason.
Wang Yan entered Baiyue Academy, and I heard that Elder Cen valued it again. Although it was due to Wang Qing's blessing, it was the future for Wang Wenhe's family, including Wang Jing, who was always angry at her husband's family. A big thing to be proud of. After this incident got to her husband's family, Wang Jing's status in her husband's family was even higher. The second younger sibling who usually flaunts her power to her is also gentler when she sees her. Even the master of the Xu family, even though he had studied in the county school and met Mr. Cen several times, he didn't have the face to make Mr. Cen look at him differently. During the New Year holidays, I followed others to the county school to give gifts to Mr. Cen, and took the opportunity to catch up with a few words.
After Wang Yan went to Baiyue Academy run by Elder Cen, the Master Juren revealed in his words that he wanted to get acquainted with Elder Cen through Wang Jing's relationship. In today's terms, Mr. Cen is very important in the education circle, and even more important in the Dunyu circle in Chinan Prefecture. Even though the master Juren was well-known and famous, he also donated money to a small official position in the county magistrate, but because he had no background, he was sacked within two years. If he could catch Elder Cen's eyes, or be able to really speak in front of Elder Cen, it would be of great benefit to him. Not to mention the Juren lord, Wang Jing's in-laws, including her in-laws, all had the same intentions. Her mother-in-law made it clear to her before the meeting with her natal family that she was required to contribute, after all, it was related to their Xu family. things.
Wang Jing is not stupid, let alone her, even his younger brother Wang Shuping doesn't have that much face to go to get old Cen through Shao Yun'an. Wang Jing told Wang Shuping what the second uncle meant, and Wang Shuping told her directly not to touch this idea. What did the Xu family think? Let them figure it out by themselves. If they really did this, regardless of what Shao Yun'an thought of them, Elder Cen would definitely be dissatisfied with their Wang family and Wang Yan. Nothing is as important as Wang Yan's future now. Wang Yan's future is far away, and Wang Jing is still afraid that she will have no place in her husband's family
Wang Shuping also did not hide from Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan. When the two were about to leave to go to another house to pay New Year's greetings, Wang Shuping told Wang Shijing about it in private. Wang Jing wouldn't help the Xu family's second child to negotiate, but there was no guarantee that the Xu family would not rely on such a small relationship to set Shao Yun'an's friendship.
Shao Yun'an admired Wang Shuping's openness. Leaving Wang Wenhe's house, Shao Yun'an asked Wang Shijing, "Do you want to help?"
Wang Shijing said without hesitation: "It doesn't matter. If you help here, there will be more people looking for you over there. We can't make trouble for Mr. Cen."
"Listen to you."
Of course Shao Yun'an thought so too, isn't Wang Shijing the head of the family, so he should respect it.
Afterwards, the couple took their children to visit the homes of several elders in the clan, as well as the homes they were friends with, including the homes of Fourth Aunt Wang and Uncle Yinzi. When I went there, I mentioned a lot of New Year greetings, but when I came back, I only had more gifts in return. Those who have received direct and indirect benefits from the two are very grateful, and those who have not received benefits have to sell well. When it was almost time for lunch, the four were able to return home.
From a distance, I saw several carriages in front of the house. Wang Shijing and Shao Yun'an looked at each other and quickened their pace. Shao Yunan said: "Brother Qing, Nizi. You run back first. Tell the guests that we will be home soon."
Wang Qing and Nizi ran home holding hands.
