Aunt Fu lost face and couldn't stay at home any longer, so she made an excuse and left in dejection. Naturally, Xichun and the others pretended not to know and said goodbye to her happily.

"Third brothers and sisters, I heard from the old lady that you will be going back in a few days?" The eldest aunt came over with a vaguely flattering smile on her face.

"Yes, sister-in-law, the three of us are here, and no one is in charge of the house. The children also have to study. I'm afraid Chang Jin's father won't be able to take care of it by himself. I think my mother is in much better spirits these days. No, I just want to go home and have a look. Besides, Changfeng’s wife will be returning to the capital in a few days, and she has to pack up her things at home.”

"I see, wife Changfeng, you have to go back to the capital not long after you arrived. Fortunately, your sister-in-law is at home to take care of the elderly. Otherwise, you would all be gone and your parents would not have to worry at home."

As soon as the eldest aunt finished saying this, she felt her daughter-in-law quietly tugging at her clothes from behind.

"Haha, look at what I said, Changfeng's wife, I, the eldest aunt, can't speak, but I don't have any bad intentions, so don't worry too much." The eldest aunt explained dryly.

"Auntie, don't worry, I know." Xichun replied dryly.

"Sister-in-law, you don't know this. These children are very filial. They said that they would let our whole family go to the capital so that we can see each other every day. But, we two are old bones. How can we go to the capital? How can relatives and friends be so comfortable at home?

Back then, we were asked to go to Shaoming County as a couple. Oops, I was really not used to it. I felt homesick as soon as I went there. It was better to stay at home and be comfortable. These children were still suffering outside. We couldn't help it. "

Mrs. Fu would not see her belittling her daughter-in-law like this, so she also replied.

"Yes, sister-in-law, I see that Chang Jin Changfeng's two nephews are very filial and promising. By the way, his third aunt, look at how promising your two sons are. They are either candidates or Jinshi , I heard that Chang Jin went to the capital to study. I'm afraid he will come back with a top score next year. Oh, then there will be two officials in your family.

Look, you nephews are still at home. Why don't you let Chang Jin Changfeng and the others support and support these cousins? "

The second aunt came over, complimented her, and pointed at her son. Now her son is still studying at home. He has been studying for many years and has not even passed the national examination. Hey, now he is asking for this third younger brother and sister. .

"Second sister-in-law is serious. I see that all my nephews are very talented, so there is no need for support. I heard Changfeng say that some people just wake up late, but once they wake up, they will succeed in every test. Your best days are yet to come.”

Mrs. Fu would not accept this trick and pretended to be deaf and dumb to prevent them from succeeding.

"Hey, what the third brother and sister said sounds nice, but if they were really promising, they would have been in the spotlight long ago. We are all a family, so I'll be blunt. Think about it, if Changfeng Changjin helps these cousins Brother, I will have someone to help me in the future. The old lady told me and my sister-in-law yesterday that if his grandsons become successful, she will burn incense and recite Buddha's name every day from now on. She has treated you badly before, but she will treat you well in the future."

It seems that this matter was agreed upon by them. Perhaps after seeing Xichun's attitude towards Aunt Fu, they did not dare to intimidate her like before and spoke softly instead. "First aunt, second aunt, judging from what you said, you all said that you can't write two characters "Fu" in one stroke. When I came back, my husband said that if there are useful brothers in the family, they must be settled well. Although we are divided now The family is no longer one, but there is still some family affection.

As long as everyone protects the reputation of the Fu family and doesn't let outsiders laugh, then isn't it just a matter of one sentence? There is no official status. Although you can't be an official, you can be a scribe or teach in an academy. , is also a good way out. They say that teaching and educating people is a good thing.

If a cousin in the family has the reputation of being a scholar and is willing to obey the father-in-law's arrangements, he will shamelessly ask someone to be accommodating and help him. "

Xi Chun opened her mouth now and told them the plan she and Fu Changfeng had made when they came back. If the Fu family didn't settle down properly, they were afraid they would cause trouble again. He still had some ability now. Give them some small profits, and at the same time let them restrain their family members.

"Oh, I didn't expect my nephew Changfeng to be so considerate. They didn't pass the civil service examination, so they really can't be officials. But if there is a way, then I will let them work hard. Wife-in-law Changfeng, don't worry. We will definitely not have the same thing happen again. When you go back, tell Changfeng and ask him to help his cousins ​​think about it carefully."

Uncle Fu and the others were also there, but the women were talking just now, so he remained silent on the side. When Changfeng's wife said this, a smile immediately appeared on his face. They knew all too well what it felt like to be pressed down by someone at the beginning, and now Changfeng's nephew is willing to give them this opportunity, so there is no reason not to seize it.

"Uncle, you're welcome. I will definitely tell my husband about this when I get back. Don't worry."

"Good good."

Because of Xichun's promise, the eldest aunt and others became more attentive in the next few days, and even the old lady's smile became a little more sincere.

"Happy spring, will it be too difficult for Changfeng to agree to this? If he is embarrassed, ask your father to come here next time to explain it clearly to them, so as not to delay Changfeng's future." Mrs. Fu said before coming She had already heard Xichun talk about this, but seeing the Fu family happy, she was a little worried, fearing what they would do if they gained power.

"Mom, don't worry. My father also said before that my cousin and the others are polite people. As long as their own reputation is involved, they won't dare to do anything too outrageous in the future. Changfeng will write to you. I would like to advise, if there is any sign, let’s suppress their arrogance first.”

If people like the Fu family are suppressed all the time, I am afraid that they will do something. If they relax appropriately and give them some benefits, they will know how important reputation is, and they will have to weigh their actions in the future. Furthermore, They can't hold any important positions because of their fame. If anything happens, they can be wiped out early on.

"That's good. You still have to worry about these things in the capital. Hey, it's hard to be an official. I'll let your father watch them carefully from now on and don't let them seek death."

"Yes, Xichun is right. If they are suppressed blindly, they may still resist. After getting the benefits, they will not dare to give up the position they finally got." Lu Qiuqin also nodded. Fortunately, his siblings were awake and arranged for Fu For these people in the family, if my husband really had the opportunity to become an official in the future, he would have to rely on his second brother and the others, so Lu Qiuqin would naturally have no objection.
