"Grandma, the 'county case chief' does not need to take the government examination or hospital examination according to the ancestral system, and can directly obtain the status of a student, that is, a scholar. (According to the Qing Dynasty assessment system)" Huang Baishu said to his grandma with a smile.

"What? Didn't you take the examination of Tongsheng before? Why did you get admitted to the scholar all of a sudden, and this is only one exam." Huang Yaozi heard this, he was a little confused.

"The county test is the first test, and those who have completed five tests and achieved excellent results can be the 'county case leader'.

However, the 'County Case Chief' can directly obtain the status of a scholar without the government examination and hospital examination. This is an honor and a special treatment. Naturally, there is no need to go through other procedures to continue the examination. "Huang Baishu explained.

"That's great, my ancestors bless you, and I gave Grandma another unexpected surprise." Huang Zhang said with surprise and joy when she heard it.

Scholars not only do not kneel when they see officials, they can pay homage to officials. Those who have land in their families do not have to pay taxes.

"Grandmother, now that Bai Shu has been admitted as a scholar, can he come to propose marriage for his grandson?" Huang Maidong, who was still thinking about this matter, took the opportunity to ask.

"Okay, grandma tomorrow will send someone to propose a marriage. It's a double happiness." Huang Zhang had planned to wait for the third grandson to be admitted to Tongsheng before going to Jiang's family to propose a marriage for the second grandson. .

It's just that she didn't expect that the third grandson came back with a "county case chief" and only took the first round of the exam, and came back with a scholar. She felt that the speed was too fast, and she didn't even realize it.

The Huang family had already prepared something to propose marriage, and sent someone to Jiang's family to propose marriage the next day.

In less than three days, the marriage of Huang Maidong and Jiang Rou was decided.

As for the date of the follow-up marriage to be determined, the two families will discuss it later.

.

This evening, the Jiang family.

"Father, I took a look at the betrothal gift that the Huang family gave Rou'er. The things that the Huang family betrothed are not only many, but also very precious." After dinner, Jiang thought of the betrothal gift from the Huang family, and she felt The head is a little unsteady.

Because the dowry gift from Huang's family is more than that of ordinary families, and it is also very expensive.

What gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and painting antiques, sheep, pigs, candles, incense and guns, cakes, flower pots with tricks (meaning the ancient sign of the birth of precious children), pomegranate flowers, etc. etc. are in pairs, silk, cloth, satin, whatever.

To put it simply, the dowry gift from the Huang family has exceeded the standards of ordinary people.

"There are many betrothal gifts, which also shows that the Huang family attaches great importance to our Rou'er.

I also heard Dr. Wen say that the grandson of the Huang family hired the Xiao family's things, which are exactly the same as ours.

This also means that the Huang family did not pay more dowry just because their eldest grandson married a rich lady.

It's not that we are partial because of our small family. There are rules for a bowl of water to be flat.

In the future, as long as our family's Rou'er marries, abides by women's morals, respects her parents-in-law, elders, and loves her husband's brothers and sisters, she will live a more comfortable life in the future than ours. "Doctor Jiang is also satisfied that the Huang family's bowl of water is flat.

"Well! Father-in-law said yes.

Father-in-law, among the betrothal gifts from the Huang family, I think some of the food hired by the Huang family is not easy to keep, so the daughter-in-law decided to eat it herself.

The rest of the wearing things don't move, and they are all given to Rou'er as a dowry, and the daughter-in-law will add some things to Rou'er as a dowry. "Jiang said slowly to her father-in-law.

"You can figure it out, you can decide for yourself.

Did the Huang family say when to ask for a deadline? "Doctor Jiang thought of this and asked.

"I haven't said it yet, but I heard that, the Huang family wants to get married in the second half of the year, and I guess they want the eldest grandson and second grandson of the Huang family to get married together.

After all, the two brothers are siblings of the same mother, or twins, and they got married on the same day, which can be regarded as a good story. "Jiang shook his head.

.

"Grandma, now my elder brother and second brother are engaged, have you chosen a date for them to get married?" Huang Zisu asked her grandma the next morning after Huang Maidong gave the dowry.

"No? Your auntie told Xiao's family that they still wanted to keep Qiuling, and that they got married in the second half of this year.

As for the Jiang family, it can be done anytime.

In the days to come, grandma also looked at it and chose a few. As soon as the end of the month arrives, the two can choose a date to get married.

Grandma thought, let your eldest brother and second brother get married on the same day, then our family will save time, effort and money, and only need to arrange a banquet. "Huang Zhang has long been prepared and thought.

"How many months are there before getting married in the second half of this year? I don't think it would be better to get married in March and April. The spring is warm and everything is recovering. It's neither hot nor cold, and it's more convenient to do everything.

That being the case, grandma, first you can choose a few dates for me to marry in March and April, and I will go to Xiao's house to see if I can change their minds and ideas. " Huang Zisu pondered for a moment, and after making a decision in her heart, she said to her grandma.

These days, Huang Zisu has also noticed that her elder brother and second elder brother are very fond of her two future sister-in-laws.

Especially his second elder brother, he is eager to marry Jiang Rou back from the Jiang family as soon as possible.

As a girl myself, of course I have to be a god assist and a matchmaker.

Besides, in the past year, happy and good things happened one after another for their family, and the days are getting more and more prosperous. It's time for the fourth generation to appear.

"Okay! Grandma is going to watch the date now." Huang Zhang happily went to the room to get the almanac to read.

With Susu from her family, she can persuade the Xiao family to get married early this year.

Mrs. Huang Zhang looked at the almanac very quickly, so she chose three good days for marriage, one on the fifteenth day of March, one on the 26th of March, and one on the ninth day of April.

The day was chosen, and Mrs. Huang and Zhang went to Xiao's house in town after lunch.

In the town, the Xiao family.

"Mrs. Xiao, sister Qiuling." After the servants of the Xiao family brought Huang Zisu to the boudoir where Xiao Qiuling lived, she saw that Mrs. Xiao was there, and she smiled and said to them.

"Little Doctor Huang, you are here, please sit down quickly." Mrs. Xiao saw Huang Zisu coming, her eyes lit up slightly, she quickly stood up and asked Huang Zisu to sit down.

Recently, she has heard a lot of rumors about Dr. Huang, who treats princes and old wives of officials, etc. Now, Dr. Huang has a wide network of contacts, and his reputation is getting bigger and bigger.

"Mrs. Xiao has seen someone else, and it's a little strange to call Doctor Huang again.

Now our two families are also in-laws, so just call me Susu. Huang Zisu sat down and said to Mrs. Xiao with a smile.

"Susu, you came to see me today for something." After Xiao Qiuling glanced at her mother, she asked Huang Zisu again.
