Qin Gong

Chapter 5 Why don't you let Yan'er come over and take a look?

"Children can't be taught? Did the uncle ever think about teaching my Yan'er?"

Xiong asked with a half-smile.

However, with the words of the Yan family, the uncle turned his head, and even the grandfather, grandmother and others all fell silent.

see this scene.

Yan's heart sneered again and again, in her eyes, how many people live in this yard have a conscience.

Don't think she doesn't know.

How eccentric Yan'er's grandfather and grandmother are.

The uncle said that he wanted to study, and Yan's father worked tirelessly to support him. When it was Yan's father's turn, he was really uncle.

Among the three sons, the older than Yan's father had studied, and the younger than Yan's father had also studied, and Yan's father was the only one who was tired.

As a result, two ungrateful things were read out.

In Xiong's eyes.

As long as this family has a conscience, they will never forget Yanfu's kindness.

Yan's father is old, but Yan's father has two sons, Shui Shou and Shui Yan.

Has their family ever thought about repaying their father?
Teach one to teach the second son of his father to know how to read and write.

"Well, today is my birthday."

At this moment, the grandfather, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

Then everyone stopped talking.

Yan Shi just glanced at it and closed his mouth.

In the final analysis, Mrs. Yan still has to worry about his man's face.

And it didn't take long.

A young man dressed as a Confucian scholar came back soon outside the courtyard, holding a scroll of bamboo slips, and entered the courtyard.

Shui Yan is no stranger to that young man.

Cousin Zi Lu.

Uncle's eldest son.

I heard that in this village, he is also quite famous among youngsters of the same age.

This fame does not mean how good it was in the first year.

It's because there are few scholars in the village, but my grandfather's family has three scholars, so the people within a radius of ten miles have more or less heard the name of this family.

For the people.

Although I understand that scholars are not powerful officials, they may not really be able to stand out.

But compared with them, the status of scholars is undoubtedly much higher.

Just like ordinary people going out, if they are lucky, they can make a living in a mansion.

And once a scholar goes out and is appreciated by others, he will directly become a servant of the rich and powerful, and he will have no worries about food and clothing in this life.

"Zhong Yan!"

Accompanying Zilu greeted him in this way, and then looked at Shui Yan.

In this family.

Only Zilu's heart is relatively simple. Although there is no gradual progress, he completely listens to his parents' arrangements.

But no matter what, the heart is not bad.

"Cousin!"

Shui Yan nodded, and slowly cupped his hands.

But Shui Yan could also see the fear in Zi Lu's eyes.

Shui Yan didn't say anything about it.

The current king of Qi is Qi Wangjian. Compared with the previous Qi kings, Qi Wangjian is definitely a virtuous king.

This is also the thing that the people of Qi are most proud of when they face the other six countries.

After all, looking at the Seven Kingdoms, the other countries are in full swing, and siege battles happen from time to time.

Only Qi State, after Qi Wangjian succeeded to the throne, the people were able to recuperate for [-] years, and the country was stable.

In addition, there is only half a day's journey between here and Linzi, so it is natural.

grew up in such an environment.

Facing him, a person who has been in contact with the dead all year round, will naturally make other people resist.

Even if he smelled it unintentionally, ordinary people would probably not be able to help but vomit.

inside the yard.

However, the news of Zilu's return somehow spread in the village.

Soon.

Many families brought their daughters to the door.

"Come on! Come in!"

"Zi Lu!!"

Uncle Zi Huai's regular wife, Ying Shi, had a chubby face full of smiles, she couldn't close her mouth as she watched the people entering the house one after another.

And this scene did make the other women look envious, looking at the sobbing child beside them, they all whispered something.

When Yingshi saw this scene, her eyes full of complacency were undisguised, and then she glanced at Yanshi without any trace.

seems to say.

Look at her son, now the daughters of other families are rushing to the door, probably wishing to give her a dowry.

Those two boys in your family.

Not to mention the big one, it's the daughter-in-law who raised enough dowry, but is it as good-looking as the ones in front of me?
As for the young one, which daughter can take a fancy to it?And which family is willing to marry off their daughter?
Yan's father was busy, although he saw the scene of others bringing his daughter to the door, he just sighed.

But Yanshi is a woman, how could she not notice Yingshi's gaze.

But because she had to worry about Yanfu today, she didn't want to ask Yingshi here, if she was like this back then, stepping on the door with a cheeky face.

Mrs. Yan held back her warmth and anger, and when she saw the youngest son who was chopping wood alone in that corner of the yard, his eyes turned red instantly, and he could only turn his head and continue to light the fire, with tears in his eyes.

"Zi Lu, do you remember that this is Cen Qing, the daughter of Uncle Ping's family at the head of the village."

"This is Jia Lian, who is four years younger than you. I heard that you met in the village last time!"

With more and more people in the yard, Yingshi said to Zilu with a smile.

Father Lu and his son Huai on the side also watched this scene with a smile.

And the women in commoner clothes in front of them also lowered their heads with pretty blushing faces at this moment, looking at the young man in Confucian costume in front of them, their hearts throbbed quietly.

The adults understand each other in their hearts what the purpose of today is.

Therefore, they all tacitly waited for the young Confucian scholar.

Today is mainly a process.

If Zilu was interested in that girl, he would naturally go up and have a chat with her.

There is no need to say much about the rest, everyone knows it in their hearts.

At this moment, Zilu was both nervous and excited, his breathing was short, and his expression was a little apprehensive.

Although he had seen many beautiful women in brocade clothes in Linzi City, the women in front of him were quite beautiful.

Thinking that he would soon understand the relationship between men and women, Zi Lu looked at Cen Qing and Jia Lian from time to time.

The second daughter naturally also felt Zilu's gaze, her hands inside her sleeves were tightly clutching her clothes, her face was even more blushing.

Seeing this, grandfather, grandmother, Yingshi and others all understood the meaning of this and laughed.

As for the other women, because they were not favored, their eyes were a little red, and their eyes with their heads down were full of disappointment.

"In two days, let's discuss Lu's marriage!"

Grandpa spoke first.

This undoubtedly amounts to setting things up.

At this time, the grandmother came to Zilu with a smile and said something in a low voice.

"It's work!"

When Cen Qing and Jia Lian's mothers heard Zilu's grandfather's words, they immediately agreed with a smile.

At this moment, Yingshi thought of something, turned her eyes, and then looked at Qianshi who was lighting a fire.

"Yan'er, his mother, why not let Shui Yan come over to have a look while the sun is good!"

Yingshi said kindly.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is undoubtedly a good intention, and they feel that Yingshi always remembers Yanfu's family, and will pass by when good things happen.

But how could Yanshi not know that this is the daughter of Yingshi who took the opportunity to humiliate her.

In addition to the moral pick the rest.

I also want Yan'er to be humiliated by being rejected in public.

In an instant, Yan Shi was almost fainted from anger.

But it did not go beyond the expectations of grandparents, uncles, and uncles, and Yingshi's voice fell.

Those people took a look at Shui Yan, and quickly waved their hands to decline their kindness.

Those girls were originally disappointed because they were not selected, but now they all forgot their disappointment, and when they looked at the boy, they were full of resistance.

to be frank.

In the eyes of those girls, not to mention the mended civilian clothes of the woodcutter boy, it was extremely shabby.

Even when his handsome appearance made people feel at ease, the girl resisted when she thought of the young man who had been with carrion corpses all year round.

"Farewell!"

"Farewell!!"

Those families with their daughters seemed to be worried that Yingshi would not speak up again and would not be able to refuse directly, so they all got up and prepared to leave.

And Yingshi has achieved his goal, so naturally he won't stay longer at this time.

Looking at the pace of those people leaving in a hurry, looking at the girls who still occasionally glance at the boy chopping wood in the corner of the yard with taboo.

This scene made Yingshi happy.
