Chapter 779
Meng Zhongshan frowned, and wanted to say that it was wrong to talk about the late Emperor behind his back, but seeing that his father's expression didn't change a bit, he closed his mouth and said that's all, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, Mingzhou's age It's big, and it has its own scale when speaking...

Meng Mingzhou didn't know anything about his father's mental process, but even if he knew, he didn't care.

"Grandpa, in the winter of last year, His Majesty took in the refugees who fled to Yuncheng at the gates of the four cities. Although they were sent back in mid-February this year, many orphans were left behind..."

"Your Majesty built two orphanages out of his own private treasury, and he also plans to hire a teacher. It can be seen that His Majesty..."

"It can be seen once that His Majesty is very concerned about the people at the bottom, especially those who have suffered disasters..."

"so··"

Meng Tao raised his eyebrows, "So? What is the test question this time?"

Meng Mingzhou curled his lips into a smile, "Grandpa, my grandson guesses that the test questions are either about how to treat the orphans after the disaster, or about the future of the orphans, or how to minimize the suffering of the people due to the disaster. ·”

Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu's eyes widened, and they looked at Meng Mingzhou with expressions of disbelief.

Meng Zhongshan was surprised, "Are you sure?"

As soon as the words came out, Meng Zhongshan felt that he had made a slip of the tongue. Although his eldest son was valued, how could he be sure that he was a general and not a civil servant?

Meng Mingzhou didn't mind Meng Zhongshan's slip of the tongue, just smiled, "Father, if your majesty can come up with this question in the test, as long as you know your majesty, you can roughly guess the question of the palace exam."

"My son thinks, some of my close ministers must be able to guess..."

"After all, every exam question, some literary masters can bet on the question pretty well..."

Meng Tao nodded slightly, and said with a clear expression, "Zhongshan, Mingzhou is right."

Meng Zhongshan nodded, "Father, son..."

Meng Tao waved his hand, then turned to look at Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu and said, "There is still some time before the palace examination, so you should write down your thoughts on these topics first, and your father/uncle and I will comment and explain."

Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu stood up and saluted, "Yes..."

The results of the general examination came down quickly, 80 people were admitted, Meng Mingxu ranked 28th, Su Chenrui ranked 35th, the rankings were not very good, but they were still in the upper reaches.

The top 30 can enter the second class, and the bottom fifty are the same Jinshi. Although Su Chenrui's test is No. [-] five, but Meng Tao and Meng Zhongshan said that although the chances of them entering the first class are not high, but It is still very possible to work hard to enter the second class.

Therefore, in the few days before the palace examination, Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu went out early and returned late every day. In the morning, they went to the big study in the front yard, and in the evening, they returned to their respective courtyards, so even if they lived in the same courtyard, they would not see each other during the day.

Regarding this, Pei Yiyi and He Yushu didn't mind at all, they understood very well, because they knew that the purpose of the husband was to get good grades in the exam.

They are not in a hurry, and they get up early every day to send their husbands to the big study, and then accompany them to the small Buddhist hall to chant scriptures and pray.

Su Rui came out of Su Wan's courtyard that day, and when she passed the Small Buddha Hall, she heard the regular sound of knocking wooden fish coming from inside. She stood there and looked in from the gate.

Noticing that besides the Jiang family who was kneeling in the front, He Yushu and Pei Yiyi were also kneeling with their huge stomachs. She frowned and wanted to go in and say that with such a big belly, she would give birth at any time, so she shouldn't kneel and chant scriptures , but they felt uneasy when they thought that they were not allowed to recite scriptures. It was probably worse than kneeling, so they simply turned around and left as if they hadn't seen it.

Xi'er had just been diagnosed with a third child, and because the fetal image was unstable, Su Rui asked her to have a good rest so she didn't have to come back to wait on her.

So at this time Su Rui was accompanied by Xi Yu, Xi Yu saw his wife was standing at the door of the Small Buddha Hall and did not go in for a while, so she asked.

"Ma'am, why don't you go in and have a look?"

Su Rui shook her head, and said softly, "No, it is said that sincerity leads to success. I don't believe in your wife, so the heart is broken. Since the heart is not sincere, then..."

Then he turned and walked towards the main courtyard.

Su Qiao's voice came briskly, "Elder Sister, Eldest Sister, have you heard?"

Su Rui was teaching Meng Musu how to read, when she heard this, she raised her head and glanced at Su Qiao who walked in, "What did you hear?"

Meng Musu stood up and bowed to Su Qiao, "Mumu has met the third aunt..."

Su Qiao smiled gently at her niece, "Mu Mu, your little brother Huai Xun is here too, playing with your brothers in the front yard."

Hearing this, Meng Musu looked at his mother, "Mother, Mu Mu wants to see younger brother Huai Xun..."

Su Rui smiled and nodded, "Go..."

The eldest girl who was talking about Meng Musu led her out.

Looking at the big girl next to Meng Musu, Su Qiao sat on the chair and said, "Big sister, where's Mumu's wet nurse?"

Usually the triplets' wet nurses are inseparable. Just now she found that Meng Zongyu and Meng Zongyao's wet nurses were not there in the front yard, so she felt very strange...

Su Rui straightened her dress and said without raising her head, "I'm sent out of the house..."

Su Qiao was surprised, "Why? Did you make a mistake?"

Su Rui said in a flat tone, "I didn't make any mistakes that violated the principle. The eldest sister just thought that Zong Yu and the others were old enough to sleep by themselves at night, so she didn't keep them..."

Su Qiao was stunned, "I didn't make a mistake, why should I send it away? Don't the wet nurses of rich families stay for the elderly..."

Su Rui hooked her lips, "Qiao'er, I paid them to serve Zong Yu and them. I didn't use them in vain. Why did I give them old age? Besides, I didn't treat them badly, and I paid them all when I let them out of the house." A lot of gold and silver, as long as they are undefeated, it is enough for them to spend a lifetime..."

After a pause, Su Rui looked at Su Qiao sharply, "Also, Qiao Er, think about it differently. Do you want your child to be closer to the wet nurse, or to yourself?"

Su Qiao frowned, "Of course I want to kiss myself, otherwise why would I have to go through life and death?"

Su Rui smiled, "Don't you understand?"

"Anyway, you have to remember that nursing mothers can use it, but don't use it too often. At most, the child will be released when he is three years old. You don't need to explain the secrets in the back house to you. You should also know about it..."

"So no matter how good she is, don't stay in the mansion to serve her, including her children and men..."

"But we can't treat them badly, just give them enough money..."

Su Qiao understood, "Sister, Qiaoer understands..."

Su Qiao is not stupid, she probably understood what it meant after listening to Su Rui's words, she thought that her son is only one year old now, and when he is two years old, she should also let the wet nurse out...

Su Rui nodded, "By the way, did I hear what you said just now?"
