Tao Cheng stood up and said goodbye. Xu Sizhen ordered Wang Shu to send him out.

Walking to the door, Tao Cheng quickly took out a small silver ingot from his sleeve and stuffed it into Wang Shu's hand. "Brother Wang, this is for you to have tea. Please give me more for me in front of the prince."

A few nice words.

The silver fell into Wang Shu's hand, and he weighed it subconsciously.

I can’t tell that for a small farm manager, he only gets five silver coins. How generous.

But Wang Shu didn’t dare to pick it up.

When he came in, his father had repeatedly warned him: The one who takes people is short, and the one who eats them is soft. Don't take advantage of others. When the day you repay your debt, you will know how powerful you are. Don't talk about your future, just talk about it.

He might even risk his life. My family members, what is Steward Tao doing? He stuffed the money back, and the fourth young master is still waiting for me to serve him. Steward Tao walked slowly, and I saw him off not too far away. With that, he turned around and headed towards the house.

Go inside.

Hey, Tao Cheng, the brother of the Wang family, shouted. Seeing that Wang Shu didn't even turn his head, he curled his lips slightly and cursed something in a low voice. He turned to go out, but saw Manager Li from the Xu family's outer courtyard walking over.

.

Manager Li immediately greeted him with a smile on his face. I haven't seen him for a while. Are you okay? Have you finished eating the wild rabbits I brought you last time? If so, I will send you two more. Then I will bring you two more.

The unsent silver ingot was stuffed into Manager Li's hand. The Crown Prince suddenly called me into the house. I was able to leave in time. I didn't bring anything with me. They were my two bottles of wine as a filial piety to you.

This Tao Cheng is very eye-catching.

For the prince's sake, some innocuous purchases in the house would sometimes be left to him.

Manager Li chuckled and put the money into his sleeves naturally: The fourth young master called you into the house again to talk. Speaking of which, our fourth young master is really a nostalgic person. The two of them stood side by side, very affectionately.

As he walked out, he naturally didn't notice Wang Shu's sudden turn back and the haze on his face.

Brother Jin quietly raised his eyelids and saw his father lying on the drunkard's chair still reading. He pouted with some disappointment and returned his gaze to the rice paper in front of him. For the past two days, he was trying to put away the red paper.

, write big characters on rice paper.

Xu Lingyi, who was reading a book, raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

This little guy has been a little absent-minded for two days in a row.

Could it be that you have some other weird ideas?

If you don’t have contact with children, you will never know how interesting they are.

Especially Brother Jin.

No matter what time he is, he is in high spirits and makes you full of energy just by looking at him.

Thinking of this, Xu Lingyi put down the book in his hand and looked at his son quietly.

He was like a child of the Xu family, taller than other children of the same age. His glossy black hair and fair and rosy skin resembled those of Eleven Niang. He sat upright, staring at the rice paper hanging in front of him.

Wan was carefully writing on the paper with a pen, his red lips were a little tight, and there were a few beads of sweat on the tip of his beautiful nose, and his expression was solemn and handsome because of his seriousness.

Xu Lingyi felt a faint sense of pride in her heart.

Feeling that someone was watching, Brother Jin raised his head.

The eyes of father and son met in the air.

Brother Jin, Xu Lingyi, smiled slightly and waved to his son, gesturing for him to come to her.

Brother Jin dropped his pen and ran to his father, but instead of standing there respectfully like Xu Sizhen or Xu Sijie, he hugged Xu Lingyi's arm.

He happily agreed to Brother Jin.

Brother Shen saw it and clamored for Xu Lingkuan to send him back to sleep.

Xu Lingkuan looked at it funny: You are at home alone, don't ask to come again.

Brother Shen puffed up his cheeks and said, "Sixth brother can do it, I can do it"

Okay, Xu Lingkuan said, he simply put his son on his shoulders and walked all the way down to Qiongling Villa.

Xu Sizhen looked at it and shook his head.

The second lady looked thoughtfully at the retreating figures of Xu Lingyi and Brother Jin.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the results of the provincial examination came out.

Xu Siyu failed again.

The two adults were slightly disappointed.

Xu Sijie was dumbfounded: His second brother was so good in knowledge that he failed the exam.

All good things come in hard times. Eleven Niang said with a smile, "It seems that our brother Yu will have to work harder."

Xu Siyu smiled sarcastically, feeling depressed for several days.

Xu Lingyi went to climb Xishan Mountain with him, and when he came back he received letters from Mr. Jiang and Mr. Xiang, and his mood improved.

After celebrating the Double Ninth Festival at home, Xu Siyu was preparing to return to Le'an.

The wife was a little reluctant: Come back to Le'an after the Chinese New Year. You have been there for three years, and everyone in your family will miss you.

When heaven entrusts a person with a great responsibility, he must first endure hardships on his mind and muscles. Xu Siyu smiled and said, "Grandma, if you believe me, you will definitely be able to pass these tests from God."

He was full of love, so naturally the wife could only encourage him.

However, Eleven Niang discussed with Xu Lingyi: How about asking Mr. Xiang to accompany him to Le'an? The young couple can't always separate the two places like this. Could it be that if he fails to become a Jinshi, the couple will never be reunited?

Okay. Xu Lingyi thought for a while and said with a smile, we can rest assured that we have a wife by our side to take care of us.

Mrs. Tai knew this, nodded repeatedly, and said to Mama Du privately: In this way, I can also have a great-grandson.

Mrs. Xiang was naturally very happy and went back to her parents' home to say goodbye. Mrs. Xiang had mixed feelings. She could not stop her son-in-law from going to Anle to study in order to start a career, either emotionally or rationally. However, her daughter married into the Xu family for three consecutive years and had nothing to do.

The worry and anxiety in my heart are beyond what others can imagine.

The day before Xu Siyu left for Anle, Mrs. Xiang made a special trip to visit Eleven Niang, gave the children some clothes and accessories, said a lot of compliments in front of Mrs. Tai, and had dinner at Xu's house before going back. Early the next morning

He and his son sent his daughter and son-in-law out of the city, and did not return to the city until the carriage of Xu Siyu and his wife disappeared.

Xu Sijie worked harder because of this.

In the blink of an eye, it was the fourteenth year of Yonghe.

Miss Jiu of the Jiang family, she is going to get her hairpin this year. On the third day of March, Eleventh Mother and Mrs. Tai discussed going to the Jiang family to propose marriage, so they might as well invite Huang San’s nǎǎi to let her go to the Jiang family to explore the wind. We are here.

It's also good to prepare for getting married.

Eleven Niang agreed with a smile, picked up the eight-plow dagger box and went to the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.
