The peasant widow is famous all over the world
Chapter 136: Jealousy can change a person beyond recognition
Nanhua Academy was founded with money from the imperial court, and the entrance examination was very strict.
But there is one exception.
That is, those who hold a recommendation letter written by a court official can enroll directly.
Zhu Guoren sighed deeply, the county magistrate has really benefited all the Lu Tang family members!
Looking at the lively scene in the house, Zhu Guoren quickly turned his attention outside the house.
He couldn't look or think, he was afraid that he would be jealous beyond recognition!
Hey!
In the past, when he didn't like the Lu family, he could secretly stumble upon them.Now, he just hopes that the Lu family will not cause any problems for him.
If I had known earlier, I would not have followed him in excitedly. It was really heartbreaking!
Zhu Guoren was heartbroken, but Mrs. Cheng felt warm in her heart and was simply flattered.
The county magistrate's wife gave her a gift, and it was the best thing she had ever seen.
Mrs. Cheng looked at the things in front of her at a loss, "This, this, madam, these things are too valuable."
Zhuang Jing smiled and put the jewelry box in her hands into Mrs. Cheng's arms, "These are ordinary things, Auntie, just accept them."
Really commonplace stuff.
The ones chosen by Grandma Liu herself were only slightly better than those worn by country women on weekdays.
If she gave something too expensive to them, she was worried that the thieves would take notice of it.
Mrs. Cheng was holding the jewelry box, her palms beginning to sweat. She felt that the ordinary things the county magistrate's wife said were definitely different from what they usually said.
Seeing her mother's panic, Tang Mian comforted her softly, "Mom, just accept my sister's kindness."
Although Tang Mian had not spent much time with her sister, she finally understood that she could never take back what she had given away.
"I, I" Mrs. Cheng looked at Tang Mian, then at Zhuang Jing, and finally hugged the jewelry box, "Thank you, madam."
In addition to the jewelry box in his arms, there are also several pieces of good-quality fabric, which look not cheap at first glance.
There are also two large bags that have not been touched or opened. I don’t know what they contain.
Zhuang Jing smiled helplessly, "Auntie, you're welcome!"
"Mom, the weather is getting colder soon. After I get the cloth back, I must make two sets of clothes for you and dad first." Tang Mian said quickly.
Cheng nodded, "Yes, I understand, don't worry."
Seeing that Mr. Cheng agreed, Tang Mian cleared his throat again and suggested: "Since there is nothing to do at the moment, why don't we discuss the style of clothes?"
After saying that, he secretly gave Zhuang Jing a wink.
Zhuang Jing received Tang Mian's hint. Although she didn't know her purpose, she immediately agreed, "Okay! I happen to have a few good patterns here. I can draw them now and see if they suit me. "
"Ah, no need for that." Mrs. Cheng smiled shyly.
The tricks that the county magistrate's wife usually uses are not something that country people can use.
But before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Tang Mian, "It's used, it's used. Good fabrics and good patterns will not be wasted."
After saying that, he immediately looked at Zhuang Jing and took action, "Sister, I'll get you a pen and ink."
"Yeah." Zhuang Jing nodded in agreement.
Seeing that her daughter and the county magistrate's wife were very enthusiastic, Mrs. Cheng had no choice but to agree.
Cheng nodded, and Tang Mian breathed a sigh of relief.
By discussing other things, Mom would have no time to dwell on her injury, nor would she want to ask her for details.
Sure enough, as she talked, Mrs. Cheng became more and more involved. After discussing the patterns and styles of clothes, she didn't stop until Grandma Liu knocked on the door and called for the banquet to be opened.
A total of 38 tables were held this time, and the villagers all sat outside the house.
The three brothers Lu Zheng and all their family members, the Tang family, the old patriarch, the village chief, Li Zheng and several gentlemen from the private school accompanied Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing to their seats in the courtyard.
Feiyue asked Lu Zheng about the number of people when he came to Qingyuan Village yesterday. The actual number of people who arrived today is no different from what Lu Zheng said. There is no shortage of seats.
However, as soon as the dishes were served and the table was called, only the shadow of chopsticks was seen on the table.In an instant, the plate containing chicken, duck and fish was empty, not even a bone was left.
Even though Grandma Liu had seen a lot of things, she was dumbfounded.
After everyone finished grabbing the food, they realized that the nanny next to the county magistrate’s wife hadn’t entered the house yet!
"Haha!" Everyone grabbing the food looked at Grandma Liu and smiled sheepishly.When the food was served, they were already swallowing hard at the big fish and meat.If it hadn't been for the county magistrate and the magistrate's wife, they would have snatched it up long ago. How could they have waited until the banquet was called before doing anything?
At this moment, they just hoped that Aunt Liu would enter the house quickly, otherwise they would not be able to put the things in their hands into their mouths.
Grandma Liu was stunned for a moment and did not react at all.
Li, who came out with her, saw this and quickly said: "Mother Liu, let's take a seat too!"
"Oh, oh, okay." Nanny Liu, who had not yet fully recovered, nodded, glanced at everyone, and stepped into the door with Ms. Li.
The villagers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Nanny Liu leaving. They didn't care what the look in Nanny Liu meant before she turned around. It was important to have a feast now.
Every dish on the table looks delicious, definitely not to be missed!
The scene inside the house is much better.
Mainly because they were seated together with Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing, so everyone had to be quite restrained.
There were children who wanted to grab food, but were pulled back and seated in time by adults.
Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing pretended not to notice, talking and laughing with the people on the table while eating their food.
After eating, Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing left without taking much rest.
"Mian Niang, sister will leave first. Come to the county government office to see me when you have time." Outside Lu Zheng's house, Zhuang Jing took Tang Mian's hand and said goodbye.
After so many years, it is rare that I meet someone I like and leave after just a few words.
Tang Mian nodded, "Don't worry, sister, I'll come find you as soon as I'm free."
She knew that her brother-in-law must be busy with other things, so she didn't try to persuade him to stay.She also thought about keeping her sister for two days, but thinking about her brother-in-law's nervousness, she decided against it.
"Okay, then we'll leave first. You can recover well. If you encounter something that can't be solved, go to the county town to find us." Zhuang Jing warned.
Tang Mian responded with a smile, feeling warm in his heart.
The onlookers were once again envious when they saw this scene.
The county magistrate's wife was so kind to Tang Mian!
From now on, who in the ten miles and eight villages would dare to mess with her?
After Yu Mingzhi and Zhuang Jing left, the people outside Lu Zheng's house slowly dispersed, and Lu Zheng's family also went back to the house and closed the door.
At this time, there were many people close to Lu Zheng's family.
Lu Guang, Lu Ming, and Tang Dingzhong have not left yet.
When Tang Mian saw Lu Zheng talking to Lu Guang and the others, he pulled Li and Wu Mei into the house to get some cloth, took out two jars of wine and carried them into the main room.
"Uncle, second uncle, thanks to your care on weekdays, I have nothing to repay. This time I will borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha, and pass on the cloth and wine given by my sister to you." Tang Mian looked at Lu Guang and Lu Ming and said.
Lu Guang and Lu Ming were a little unhappy, "What kind of repayment does the family have?"
Tang Mian smiled and nodded, "Yes, the eldest uncle and the second uncle are right. Then treat these things as my filial piety as a junior. Please accept them, elders."
This time Lu Guang and Lu Ming did not refuse, "Sure, we'll accept it."
All the daughters-in-law were very happy.
To be honest, they were very envious when they looked at those good things.I also thought it would be nice if I could use those cloths to make clothes to wear.
Now that Mian Niang has sent cloth to her family, I think their wish will come true.As for wine, they were not interested.
"Third cousin, I still have to trouble you to send my parents back to Da'an Village." After sending the cloth out, Tang Mian turned to Lu Zhihai and said.
Lu Zhihai happily agreed, "No problem. Brothers and sisters, don't worry, I guarantee it will be delivered."
Tang Mian smiled and said, "Of course I'm relieved. Thank you third cousin for your hard work."
"Hey, it's nothing hard." Lu Zhihai waved his hand indifferently.
After everyone was sent away, Tang Mian and Mrs. Li had time to sort out the gifts from Zhuang Jing.
But there is one exception.
That is, those who hold a recommendation letter written by a court official can enroll directly.
Zhu Guoren sighed deeply, the county magistrate has really benefited all the Lu Tang family members!
