Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 493
"How can this be the same?" Du Jinning hurriedly poured cold water on Chen Shi, lest she have daydreams, "Grandpa Qi is kind to me and willing to help me, because he thinks that I have a bright future, and in the future I can watch and help Qi Muyuan in officialdom, what matters is My future. If I know that I am a woman, not only will I not bring any benefit to the Qi family, but it will be a big deal. As long as someone finds out that I am Du Jinning, a scholar, the Qi family will not be able to escape the crime of covering up the king. How could he think about it? Do you want to help me? We are still worried that our sisters will be implicated. He has three generations of grandparents. Does he dare to take such a risk? I am afraid that the moment he finds out that I am a woman, in order to protect himself, he has to immediately put I will take it and hand it over to the Yamen, and let the court punish me. No matter how close I am to their family, can it compare to the lives of my own relatives?"

"No, won't it?" Chen was startled.She didn't expect the consequences to be so serious.

"Why not? If you were in such a situation, how dare you say you wouldn't do this?" Du Jinning continued, "Take a step back, even if Grandpa Qi and Qi Muyuan don't report on me because of their friendship for many years, But does Grandpa Qi dare to let Qi Muyuan marry me? Once you marry me in, and the paper can't cover the fire, someone finds that I look exactly like Du Jinning. It’s not the same? I’m going to live my life, but I want to sit on the crater and kill a family, what is my picture?”

Chen's feverish mind calmed down.

Thinking about the situation Du Jinning described, she couldn't help shivering, and said repeatedly: "No, no, let's live in peace like this." When she came back to her senses, she looked at her daughter and sighed, "Oh, it's just suffering. is you."

"If you are willing to give up, you will gain something if you give up. It is enough to have a broad world for me to display my talents and do what I want to do. I don't need marriage."

Speaking of which, Du Jinning shook his head and looked at Mrs. Chen: "And do you think life will be easier after you get married? Look at Mrs. Zhang next door, and Mrs. Li at the alley. What kind of life is that? Don’t tell me about your life, because you don’t want to live it yourself, do you?”

Chen's expression froze, and finally heaved a long sigh, completely silent.

Due to the close relationship between the Du family and the Qi family, many people in the alley also walked with the Du family.Not to mention reciprocal gifts during the New Year and festivals, any wedding or funeral banquet will post to the neighbors. After attending a few banquets, Mrs. Chen started walking with the wives in the alley.

Mrs. Zhang next door had a similar experience to Guan Jiaze's mother Kong.But what her husband likes is not his cousin, but the housemaid who grew up with him, and later raised his aunt.Mrs. Zhang is backed by her natal family, and Auntie is backed by her husband. The two fight to the death at home, and there is no end to it.

Mrs. Li in the alley is a loving husband and wife, but her children are not well-known, and she gave birth to a son who died, leaving only one daughter under her knees.The mother-in-law took many concubines for her son in order to continue the incense.How can the love of husband and wife be against youth, beauty, freshness and son?Now that the relationship between husband and wife is fading, Mrs. Li's heart is like a dead tree.

This is only for those who live nearby, are willing to communicate with Chen, and are willing to tell her about the situation at home.And how much is the suffering of those women who have never known it?

Whenever she sees these people, Chen can't help but think of herself.If Du Yuncheng hadn't died back then, but had been admitted to Juren and Jinshi, he was old and decrepit, and had no son, would he have ended up like Mrs. Li in the end?

If you don't think about it, it's nothing, but if you think about it carefully, you will be extremely afraid.

"You're right. Mother thought it too simply." Mrs. Chen seemed to have completely given up on Du Jinning's marriage.

"Be careful outside, don't show your feet." Chen urged.

"Don't worry, I know."

Du Jinning is younger than Xu Chengyuan, Guan Jiaze, and Qi Muyuan, and he has seen their growth process completely in his eyes.As early as a year ago, she used the ventriloquism she had practiced to change her voice, making her voice deeper.Her original voice was not that shrill and thin, but a little mid-tone, and when she pressed it down like this, she was no different from a boy.

She was careful in doing things, not only used a male voice in the academy, but also used a male voice when talking to Mrs. Chen in this courtyard where no one was allowed to come in.So even if she came to Yuexin now, Mrs. Chen is still very relieved of Du Jinning.

"Mother, you should decide on the fourth sister's marriage as soon as possible. As long as the fourth sister gets married, my psychological pressure will not be so great." Du Jinning said.

As soon as this matter was mentioned, Mrs. Chen felt a headache.

In the past, Du Fangfei didn't have to choose, so she married someone who was a little bit agreeable; Du Fangling didn't bother much because she had Lu Xiaobei.But here for Du Fanghui, because the conditions of the Du family are good now, and Du Jinning's performance is very good, most of the people who come to propose marriage are from wealthy families, so it is difficult to choose.

It is not easy for rural people to marry a daughter-in-law, so they can marry one. The burden of having children is heavy, and they are busy all day for making ends meet. Although it is hard work, they don't spend so much effort.But these rich and noble families in the city are different. When a large family lives together, there are already many conflicts. Coupled with the prevalence of concubines, there are really few families with harmonious families.

But now that the conditions of the Du family are better, there is no reason to go back and find a poor family.It is still unknown whether a man from a poor family will go bad after he has a little money in his hands. To find a poor man to marry a daughter for this purpose is something that only the brains will do.

So Du Fanghui's marriage was delayed like this.

"Is there any suitable one in your bookstore?" Chen asked.

"No, I have already said something, how can we wait until now?" Du Jinning sighed, "I will pay attention to it."

Chen nodded.

Du Fangling's wedding is one month later.If Du Fanghui's marriage can be settled again, apart from Du Jinning, the Chen family has nothing to worry about.

In good health, Du Jinning returned to the academy the next day.

She naturally received warm greetings and care from all the students.

"Thank you for your concern." Du Jinning raised his hand to salute everyone.

Although Liang Xiankuan and Fang Shaohua were stopped and did not go to visit her "illness", they did so with gifts.Other good friends also gave gifts one after another.

Du Jinning glanced at the crowd and asked, "Where's Qi Muyuan? Didn't come today?"

"Since you were sick, he hasn't come to the academy very often. I think he doesn't know the news of your return." Fang Shaohua said, joking, "I see you are not separated from Meng, Meng is not separated from Jiao, it's better to be with a Like a human being. If you don't come, he won't come; if you come, he will come back immediately."

Everyone "haha" laughed.

Du Jinning rolled his eyes at him: "Aren't you inseparable like Meng Chun?"

Liang Xiankuan has a lot of family affairs and is often not in the academy; and his personalities don't get along very well, so Fang Shaohua and Liang Xiankuan are not particularly good.On the contrary, he and a classmate of Meng Chun have the same temperament and have a good time. They usually stay together except when they go back to the dormitory.

There are many classmates who have a good relationship in the academy. Du Jinning and Qi Muyuan are close, and no one is gossiping. It was just Fang Shaohua joking.

But these words were heard by Qi Muyuan who just walked to the gate of the courtyard.

His face was a little stiff.

Although he told himself repeatedly that he liked to touch Du Jinning because he was close to her, but he had a charming thought about Du Jinning, which could not be erased.So he is planning to separate from Du Jinning and keep some distance.But everyone knew that they were close, so they alienated so suddenly, I don't know how the classmates would gossip about him and Du Jinning.Gossiping is fine, anyway, he doesn't care about other people's opinions.But what would Du Jinning think?
According to Du Jinning's temper, once he showed indifference, Du Jinning would turn around and leave if he wanted to, and ignore him from now on, right?

Does he really want to be a stranger to his best friend?
