Please remember our website address:

Due to filial piety at home, we cannot go out to pay New Year's greetings, and no one comes to visit us to pay New Year's greetings. We cannot see any red, let alone set off firecrackers, so this New Year is spent in a very deserted way.

On the morning of the New Year's Eve, Mr. Zhu led his sons and grandsons up the mountain to visit Mr. Zhu's grave. He cried a lot after being unable to give birth, and was persuaded by his sons to come back.

Later, Zhu Laosi and Boyuan were picked up by Bo Kai to celebrate the New Year in the city. Zhu Laosi's family had already agreed with Yang that they would spend this year on their own, but they saw that only Lao Zhutou and Yang were left at home.

Mrs. Lin said that it would be better if we went to the old man's house to celebrate the New Year. Mrs. Fang also knew that the young couple had spent the New Year with the old man for so many years. It was hard to save trouble this year, so she simply took the two old people to her home. New Year.

Of course, Lao Zhu didn't have a haircut. Chapter 339: The Yang Family is Here. After Brother Qi returned to his hometown, Bao'er and Lizi surrounded her. They were also full of love for her. When they saw the two newly bought little girls, Some of them couldn't tell whether they were being annoyed or joking: "In the past, I only knew that wealthy families had three slaves and four maidservants to serve them, but now our family has become more and more prosperous."

Borong said obediently: "I'll buy two girls for grandma to serve you!"

Before Yang could speak, Lao Zhutou hurriedly waved his hands and said: "What kind of girl do you want to buy? I and your mother are both hands-on. It's not like you are childless, so what do you want to do with that?"

After the New Year's Eve dinner, we couldn't play cards for fun, so we just sat and talked to relieve our difficulties. The women were making dumplings in the West Room. This year, because there were two more little girls, Yang and Fang didn't have to do anything. 1],

Xiu led Hehuā, Miao'er and Xiaozhen, making all the dumplings while talking and laughing.

There was nothing to talk about in my free time. I asked the two girls some things about their family in the past, and chatted for a while about various households in the village. It was almost midnight. After cooking dumplings for everyone to eat, they felt more and more sleepy. The two little girls also Some of them couldn't stand it any longer, but seeing that He Hua was still reading, they couldn't hold on and refused to sleep.

He Hua raised his head when his eyes were tired, and saw two girls sitting aside, moving their heads little by little, and said hurriedly: "In Chapter 339, I didn't think carefully about Brother Qi's return to his hometown. "There are only three of us in the house. If you feel sleepy, just sleep for a while. It won't be a problem." The two of them then took a nap on the kang.

On the second day of the first lunar month, my daughter returned home, and Zhi'er, who had been married to the city, also came back with Patrolman Jin. Sister Zhu was overjoyed. Mrs. Fang couldn't help but tease her and said: "Everyone's mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law. The more she looks at her, the more she likes her. What do you think this is?"

"Go away, don't make fun of me. I'm so happy to see Zhi'er have a good support!" Sister Zhu pushed Fang and said angrily.

Mrs. Fang had already agreed with Grandma Hehuā that she would wait for her daughter to return home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, and ask her sisters-in-law to go home respectively. She would take the children back to her parents' home on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Naturally, Grandma Hehuā would not be disappointed. The corresponding reason.

Not long after Zhi'er arrived home, Meizi and Jasmine also came back together. Zhu Laosi and Zhu Laosi both followed Fang's example and went back on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Several families gathered in the old yard and followed. Yang's side was busy together.

Because there were so many people coming back, although there wasn't much to do, it was still bustling with people, and the most talked about thing was He Hua's marriage.

When there are more women, they naturally talk more. They chattered about lotus flowers until they blushed and couldn't hide away. In the end, they simply sat on the edge of the kang and remained silent.

At this time, the Lu family brother also accompanied Shaoyao back to the house to meet the new year, and then went out to talk to the other sons-in-law of the Zhu family, chatting with Lao Zhutou and Zhu Yongxin.

Hehuā quickly brought the topic to Shaoyao, and the women in the room immediately began to care about Shaoyao's future after marriage and why she was not pregnant yet.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hehuā hurriedly hid out. When he went out, he saw Miao'er squatting at the door and mopping the floor. He said strangely: "Miao'er, what are you doing?"

"Oh, girl, there is snow on the ground, and my aunt told me to wipe it with my slave to prevent someone from slipping." Miao'er smiled shyly, and his men speeded up again.

Hehuā was stunned for a moment before she realized that the aunt she was talking about was probably Shaoyao. She immediately frowned, but it was difficult to say anything, especially in front of the girl. Could it be that she was arguing with Shaoyao again? Before she could say anything, Shaoyao raised the curtain in the room, leaned against the door frame and said with a smile: "Hehuā, if you give me some instructions, is it possible that you feel bad? You are just too sweet-tempered, and the servants will have to If you are busy, you will easily get into trouble when you are free."

Hearing this, Miao'er lowered her head and continued to wipe the floor, but Hehuā said, "Miao'er, have you ironed the clothes I asked you to iron in the morning?"

"..." Miao'er was confused by the question and didn't know how to answer, so he hesitated, "Slave...

"I haven't done anything at home yet. I just go wherever I see the excitement. Go home quickly!" After saying this, Hehuā didn't even look at Shaoyao and went to the west room to talk to Jasmine.

Jasmine had never had any feelings for Mr. Yang, and she felt bored staying here. When He Hua came in, she discussed: "There are many people and chaos in the old courtyard. The two children are too tired to sleep. How about you accompany me?" Go home? Let’s talk quietly and let the men talk here.”

"That's just right. Lou just asked Miao'er to go home. Now if we walk a few steps quickly, we might be able to catch up." After hearing this, Hehuā got what he wanted. He went out to talk to Yang and Fang, and then told Mo Li dressed Zao'er and Tian'er together, wrapped them in cloaks, and carried each of them out the door.

Jiang Shiyan saw this and hurriedly came over and said, "Where are you going? I'll drive you there."

Moli thought he was boring, so she waved her hands and said, "Just talk to dad. The two children are sleepy. Hehua and I will go home and coax them to sleep for a while. It's too busy here and they won't sleep no matter what."

Jiang Shiyan didn't care whether Jasmine was happy or not, but insisted on following him. Shaoyao said a little sourly: "The eldest brother-in-law really has nothing to say to the eldest sister, and they can't be separated for a while!"

"That's right!" Jiang Shiyan didn't have any contact with peony, and Moli refused to tell him about the shortcomings of her parents' side, so he didn't notice the thorns of peony and just thought it was a joke between their sisters. "Man, be kind to him." My wife and children are my top priority, not to mention me and my sister-in-law, too."

Shaoyao was embarrassed by what he said. Although he knew that Jiang Shiyan could not understand his family's affairs, so it must be unintentional, he was still hurt in the heart. He glanced at his man and saw that he was smiling happily, as if it was true. Like a good husband, he became more and more impatient. He glanced at me and said angrily: "That's all. If you want to leave, hurry up. Don't burden these many people who are getting up and waiting to see you off."

Jiang Shiyan was a little confused by what he said, but he didn't understand and didn't pay much attention. He only protected Moli and the child in the car, helped Hehuā hold up the footrest, and then drove the car towards Hehua's house.

Moli didn't say anything on the way. After she got home and put the child to sleep, she sent Jiang Shiyan to watch her in the west wing. She called Miao'er and Xiaozhen to the east room, sat on the edge of the kang and said, "I'm here today." I’ll tell you a few words and I’ll make sure you both keep them in mind.”

Miao'er rolled her eyes and looked at Hehuā. Seeing that she also acquiesced and said nothing, she blessed her body and said, "I will listen to my aunt's lesson."

Xiaozhen quickly learned to do it.

Moli cleared her throat and said: "Your master has a good temper, but you know things yourself and know who you should listen to and who you shouldn't listen to. Don't let anyone instruct you to do it, and let others see that you don't understand the rules. It’s shameful for your master.”

Miao'er's face turned red and she knew she was talking about herself, but she didn't dare to explain, so she just lowered her head and listened.

Jasmine then said a few more words, and when she saw that the two little girls agreed obediently, she drank. Cha said: "That's all, you go down and let us sisters say a few words."

After the two girls went to the west room, He Hua could not hold back her laughter and fell on the kang. She rubbed her belly and said, "Sister, you are becoming more and more active now. You can even give out the money of a young lady from a wealthy family. You are so disciplined." , there are rules and methods, I will have to learn from Grandma Jiang in the future."

Jasmine was bluffing at first, but now she was laughed at by He Hua. She couldn't hold it in any longer. While laughing, she reached out to tickle He Hua and said, "You have such a mouth. I'll help you teach the girl, but you still run against me. See if I don't do it." I'm pinching you! My mother also told me that you are becoming more and more stable, but I didn't notice it at all."

The two sisters laughed and joked for a while. When they were both tired, they leaned on the kang and talked to each other. Moli first talked about some miscellaneous housework at home, and Hehua also talked about his own affairs, as well as the situation of shops in the city, etc. The topic finally came around to Qi Jintang and Jiang Shiyan.

Moli sighed and said, "If your brother-in-law had half the ambition of Qi's brother, I would be satisfied. In the past, when my family was poor, I always felt that rich people were better. Now that I have married into a rich family, I have lived such a good life." I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I know it now, no wonder my parents have to save money and food to support my eldest brother and the others in their education. There is no supporter and no motivated man in the family, so life is really frustrating."

"Why do you have such emotion?" Hehuā asked in confusion, "I think you are called Long Wangshu now, right?"

Moli shook her head, moved her body to a more comfortable position and said: "Of course not, I have never been the kind of person who is dissatisfied. But now that the two children are older, I have begun to follow the old lady's example. Housekeeper, now I know how difficult the family business is. My parents-in-law are doing business in other places and are being deducted from various places. Half of the money I earn has to be used to deal with government favors. It is smoothed down layer by layer. No matter how much money I throw in, it is filled with money. It’s a bottomless pit. I finally became familiar with the official. Within two years, someone else came to take office. I had to go through the whole process again... "

"What the eldest sister said is true. If it weren't for the good relationship between the eldest brother and the Sun family, it would be difficult for our family to have smooth sailing in the city." Hehuā nodded in agreement after hearing this.

"So, the old man in the family hopes that your brother-in-law can make progress and get a good name. Now I take care of the child every day and keep an eye on him studying. It's like I have an older son." Moli said angrily.

"Pfft!" Hehuā couldn't help laughing after hearing this.

Jiang Shiyan's voice came in from outside and said: "I heard it. You can just train me at home. Why do you expose my shortcomings in front of a girl? You make me, a brother-in-law, lose face. You... Isn’t it glorious to be a eldest sister?” After saying that, he picked up the curtain and entered the room with a smile, “Hehuā, don’t listen to your sister’s nonsense, I’m working very hard!”

Hehuā pursed his lips and smiled when he heard this: "Brother-in-law is not actually talentless, but he uses all his talents in poetry and songs and refuses to work on serious articles. Brother-in-law, do you think I am right?"

"Hehuā still knows how to talk. Although he criticizes me, he makes me feel comfortable."

Jiang Shiyan nodded repeatedly.

"I still remember that when my little aunt got married many years ago, my brother-in-law always said he was a prodigy!" He Huā joked with Jiang Shiyan.

But Moli remembered and said: "At that time, you two quarreled as soon as we met. I don't know why you were so cross-eyed but now you are getting along." Hehuā came to Moli and said: "Do you know why I looked at you in the first place? Brother-in-law doesn’t like it?”

"Why?" Mo Li looked at it and asked.

"It's the same reason you didn't like Brother Jintang before!" He Hua buried her head in Jasmine's arms, laughing so hard that her shoulders shrugged.

Moli immediately reacted, stretched out her hand and patted the lotus flower and said: "You little hooves, how old were you at the time, what do you know!"

Jiang Shiyan was confused when he heard this, and asked quickly: "What kind of riddle are you playing? I can't understand." He turned to Moli and asked, "You don't praise Qi's little brother in front of me every day for his good study, why are you talking so much?" Are you saying you don't like her?"

Moli rolled her eyes at him and couldn't bear his repeated questions, so she curled her lips and said, "Of course I don't like him if he likes my sister!"

Jiang Shiyan laughed loudly and said: "I used to worry that He Huā would not like me. What if I am so tired that you also dislike me? It turns out there is such a reason."

Because of this incident, Jiang Shiyan was in a very good mood that day. Before leaving, he specifically said to He Huā: "When the little brother from the Qi family wins the Jinshi, I will bring your sister to congratulate you."

The people next to him all showed kind smiles after hearing this. He Hua blushed and stamped his feet: "How can you act like a brother-in-law if you say such nonsense?"

Moli didn't say anything, just pursed her lips and smiled. Hehuā glared at her before saying, "Your brother-in-law is right and he will come to congratulate you when the time comes!"

Zao'er is already at an age where she can learn to speak very well. Listening to her parents saying this, she is busy and worried about her little one.

He shouted to Hehuā: "Hexi, Hexi..." "Go!" Hehuā reached out and pinched Zaoer's little face, and then tightened her cloak, "Go back with your parents quickly! Go back!" Say hello to your great-grandfather and great-grandmother on behalf of your aunt!"

"Okay, okay" Zao'er didn't know whether she understood or not, so she just kept repeating.

Fang packed up half a cart with large and small bags, and then he was released.

In the blink of an eye, it has been a few months since last year. It was the anniversary of Mr. Zhu, and people of Hehuā’s generation were in the period of filial piety. Borong was not in a hurry to go back to the south. He wanted to wait for the results of Qi Jintang’s exam and looked at Hehuā. Leave after getting married.

He Hua didn't pay much attention at first, but as there were more people talking around him, he unconsciously began to get nervous, especially since the imperial examination was supposed to be over. But because the capital was far away from the north, he wasn't ready yet. When I got the news, it was hard not to think about it. I haven't been able to sleep well at night these past few days. Within a few days my eyes started to pinch, and my gums began to swell and hurt due to inflammation. I couldn't eat anything anymore. I felt very uncomfortable holding my cheeks every day, and my teeth were not healed yet. Just lost a lot of weight.

The family looked worried, but there was nothing they could do to persuade her. After all, no one could say whether she would pass the exam or not. Fang came back to visit once, and she didn't want to go back to the city when she saw He Huā in this state. Went there.

Borong used the excuse that Boning was still studying in the city, and the shop could not be separated from people, so he urged Zhu Yongxin and Fang to return to the city, saying that the house would be left to him and Xiaoxiu.

Fang didn't want to leave at first, but she really couldn't worry about leaving the shop. She couldn't let Qiaoran and Zhi'er support her all the time, so she had no choice but to ask Xiaoxiu to take good care of Hehuā, and to persuade him more often. If anything happened, he would rush to the city to deliver a message.

After sending Fang away, Xiaoxiu worriedly told Bo Rong: "Hehuā has always been the only one who persuades others. No one else persuades her. My mother asked me to persuade her, but I am a stupid person. I don't even know how to speak. I don’t even know, do you have any good ideas?” Bo Rong raised his eyes from the book he was reading, looked at Xiaoxiu’s worried look and smiled: “What are you worried about? I think she is just free. How about I teach you a trick?” Son, how about taking good care of it?"

Xiaoxiu was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly sat down next to him and said, "What can you do?"

Bo Rong put the book aside, reached out and hooked Xiaoxiu's waist, pulled her into his arms and said, "Then tell me how to thank me first, and I'll see if I want to tell you later."

Xiaoxiu's face turned red with embarrassment and she stretched out her hand to push him and said, "Young man is not serious in broad daylight. Let's wait until the child wakes up."

Bo Rong looked at his daughter and son who were sleeping on the kang as if they were fighting. He got up, hugged Xiaoxiu and walked towards the outside room, "They were sleeping like nothing, and they couldn't wake up even if there was a thunder."

Xiaoxiu couldn't help but went out and made out on the small kang outside. Afterwards, she leaned into Bo Rong's arms with her breath slightly unsteady, stretched out her hand to comb her messy hair and said, "Hurry up and get down to business. What is the method?"

Upon hearing this, Bo Rong's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his subordinates began to say dishonestly again: "What, I was not working hard just now? I'm still thinking about that?"

"Fuck you." Xiaoxiu spat at him in embarrassment and annoyance, turned over and said, "I won't mess around with you anymore. You just tell me your ideas. If you don't look good, I won't hit you!"

"In the past, you saw that she didn't have anything to worry about every day because she was busy with things every day. Now that she has bought two girls, she naturally starts to think about it as soon as she has some free time. All you need to do is take Bao'er Give it to her and tell her to give it to her when she has time. It will be fine if she has something to do." Bo Rong reached out and touched Xiaoxiu's hair, messing up her long hair again.

Due to the separation of houses during the Xiaoqi period, the two of them had not been intimate for more than a year. Now that they had a break, Bo Rong did not suppress his temper, so he ended up lying in the same place again, and his feet were withered for half an hour before he got up.

Xiaoxiu got the idea from Bo Rong, and she actually gave Baoer to Hehuā and asked her to watch it.

He Hua had no choice but to gather his energy and teach Bao'er how to read. For a while, he forgot about his troubles and gradually regained his composure.

At the end of April, the good news announcement list from the capital was placed in various prefectures and counties one by one, and people in the city came to announce the good news to the Qi family.

He Hua heard the sound of gongs and drums early in the morning and thought it was because he was daydreaming thoughtfully. Before he could get off the ground and put on his shoes, Shuanzi rushed in and shouted: "Second sister, second sister, Brother Jintang has won the Jinshi. !”

"W-what did you say?" Hehuā's lips trembled a little and couldn't believe her ears. She really didn't expect that Qi Jintang could really win the Jinshi.

"I said that Brother Jintang has become a Jinshi. People from the city came to announce the good news to the Qi family. Master Qi said that he would hold a banquet to invite the whole village!" Shuanzi shouted.

Before Shuanzi finished speaking, Bo Rong also came back with a smile from outside and said: "I really won. Although I was ranked very low in the top three and was born with the same Jinshi background, I still won after all. This time you But I’m relieved.”

"Second sister, what's wrong with you? Don't cry." Shuanzi looked at the tears on He Hua's face and became at a loss. He pulled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help her wipe her tears and said, "Second sister, don't cry."

Hehuā was surprised to realize that tears were streaming down his face. He reached out to hold Shuanzi in his arms, laid her head on his young shoulder and began to cry.

Bo Rong stepped forward and patted He Hua on the shoulder without saying a word. Shuan Zi straightened his back at that moment, and his clothes were wet with tears from He Hua, burning on his shoulders, making him feel a strange sense of responsibility.

Hehuā's mood quickly stabilized, and he turned away a little embarrassed.

Miao'er brought the basin over with a wink, twisted the handkerchief and handed it to Hehua to wipe his face.

Xiaozhen came up with a smile and said, "Congratulations, girl!"

He Hua's face turned red. He wanted to blame but didn't know what to say. He had mixed feelings in his heart and couldn't tell what he was feeling. He washed his face in the basin and then said to Bo Rong: "Brother, is our family the same?" Should I prepare some gifts to congratulate you? "Well, I have asked someone to send a message to my parents. Now that Jintang hasn't come back yet, it would be inappropriate for me to come forward. My parents must come back to send gifts!" "Bo Rong smiled like a warm spring breeze. He has been

Looking at Qi Jintang's thoughts about He Hua, and now seeing that the two of them are finally on the verge of achieving enlightenment and Qi Jintang has such a bright future, he feels really happy for his sister.

At noon, Zhu Yongxin and Fang also rushed back from the city. They were both very happy. They packed up the gifts and went to the Qi family to congratulate them.

Mr. Qi happily set up a table with flowing water in the village for three days. Fang even helped clear a table of high-end banquets and asked the Qi family to invite the Qi clan chief and some elders to have a drink.

Another half month later, the letters Qi Jintang sent also came back. In addition to the ones for himself, there were also letters specially written to He Hua, saying that they were waiting for the official election in Xicheng, and they had been inseparable for ten years. After seven or eight days, we will set off home.

He Hua counted the days and estimated that he would arrive home in early June. ! ! !
