  Chapter 75 Sheng Mansion
  "Are you from the Wei family?"

Mrs. Wang took the letter from Sheng Hong, looked at it, and frowned.

Why is there someone from the Wei family again?

After Wei Xiaoniang died in childbirth, her second sister came here, and now her nephew is here again.

When Wei Xiaoniang passed away, Sheng Hong, as the lord, and Wang Ruofu, as the eldest wife, were certainly not as sad as they were. However, the Sheng family was kind, and Yin Gao, as Wei Xiaoniang's step-nephew, was from her mother's family, even if Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang were very disdainful, and they could not leave Yin Kuo alone outside the door.

Although the concubine's natal family is not really her natal family, she is still a relative, so she still has to show off, otherwise it will not be a good thing even if the skin is not itchy if gossips are spread.

Therefore, Mrs. Wang became a little impatient when she thought about this.

Sheng Hong's expression was different from hers. He glanced sideways at her and said, "Don't be impatient. Even if this young man is not from the Wei family, we have to welcome him in."

Mrs. Wang was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Sheng Hong said, "Didn't you read the letter? This young man is from the Yin family in Henan, which is considered a scholarly family. His ancestors were high officials in the Tang Dynasty."

"so what?"

Wang Ruofu curled his lips in disdain, "We are in the Song Dynasty now, what does it have to do with the Tang Dynasty?"

Sheng Hong shook his head: "You haven't heard of the Henan Yin family, but you have always heard of Mr. Hanoi, and Mr. Henan, right?"

Wang Ruofu shook his head blankly.

Sheng Hong glanced at her: "It's true that a boudoir woman doesn't know the way! The Duke of Hanoi Yin Yuan and the Duke of Henan Yin Zhu were the elders of the dynasty, especially the Duke of Henan Yin Zhu, who was also a disciple of Fan Shenzheng back then. The Yin family has a good relationship with these two people, and their reputation among officials is quite high."

"Fan Shenzheng?" Wang Ruofu was surprised. How could he be related to an official like Shenzhi Zhengshi?

Sheng Hong waved his hand: "You don't have to be like this. It's true that Fan Shenzheng has a good relationship with the Henan Duke Yin Zhu, but this boy is only a concubine in the Yin family for several generations. It doesn't matter. It's just that he has the Henan Yin family in him. We can't leave him alone because of his identity, we can just take care of him."

"That's done, let's call him in and say a few words. If you want some money, just give him some money." Wang Ruofu said immediately.

Sheng Hong did not retort, and added: "By the way, I heard that the young man has an old relationship with Zhuang Xuexue. The Xuexue will come soon, let's talk about it together."

Wang Ruofu nodded and asked the servant to make arrangements.

……

After a while, the boy returned to the side door.

"Master, please invite me. The Lord invites you to speak in the main hall."

This time, the boy's attitude seemed to be much better.

Seeing the young man's appearance, Yin Ma could even guess what Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang said in the room after reading his letter.

"Excuse me, brother."

He smiled faintly, followed the boy into the side door, walked zigzag in the garden corridor for a while, and then arrived at the main hall.

Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang were seen sitting in the first place, one on the left and the other on the right. They were all slightly surprised when they saw Yin Ga approaching.

Unexpectedly, this nephew of the Yin family was born with such talent.

They were surprised, but they did not stand up to greet him. Now that they had entered the house, a junior and a poor family, Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang didn't pay much attention to him.

However, his expression is not so indifferent.

"Oh, this must be Brother Qi. I have long heard that Sister Wei has a nephew who is good at reading. I didn't expect that he would be so handsome."

Wang Ruofu smiled.

Yin Gao bowed slightly and said, "I have met Mr. Sheng, Madam."

Sheng Hong also smiled lightly and said, "I read your letter from Brother Qi. If you need help at home, just ask."

This is what he said as soon as he came up. Yin Ga found it interesting. This Sheng Hong...couldn't he be a beggar for himself?

"Thank you very much, Duke Sheng, for your concern. My mother is newly bereaved and everything has been taken care of. The younger generation came to Bianjing to study." Yin Zhu said calmly and smiled lightly.

"Ugh."

Wang Ruofu sighed, "How can this be a good thing... He is also a poor boy. If you are in Bianjing from now on, if you need help, just ask. Our Sheng family will never shirk if we can help."

When Yin Lao heard this, he felt happy again. He didn't expect that Mrs. Wang's moral conduct was not particularly low.

Just as he was talking, Xuexue Zhuang also walked into the main hall.

"Dong Weng, eldest lady."

Zhuang Xuexue said hello, his attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. He turned his head and looked at Yin Gao, his face was slightly surprised, but he quickly recovered.

"The scholar is here at the right time. This is..." Sheng Hong opened his mouth and was about to introduce him.

"Are you Yin Ga?" Zhuang Xuexue asked himself.

Yin Gao nodded and bowed towards Xuexue Zhuang: "Junior Yin Gao, I have met Xuexue Zhuang."

"well."

Zhuang Xuexuu looked at Yin Zhang with satisfaction, and then said, "Your grandfather, I was a classmate and good friend in the past. He was just like you, young and successful, high-spirited, but unfortunately later... well, let's not mention the past. Forget it, now that I have received the letter from your Majesty, since you have come to Bianjing, why don't you come with me to review the letter so that you can prepare for the examination in three years?"

Will you try?

Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu looked at each other. Has this boy already passed the understanding test at such a young age?

As expected of the Henan Yin family.

Passing the examination at the age of fourteen was not a rare thing in today's Song Dynasty, but for a poor man to have such an achievement, it seems that the Henan Yin family is well-deserved.

Both of them thought so, but they didn't know that Yin Ga had passed the understanding test when he was nine years old.

Last year, I was supposed to come to Bianjing to take the examination, but my stepmother Wei was seriously ill, and I felt that I was still young and lacked knowledge. In addition, my family really couldn't afford the money, so I had to miss one subject.

"It's given by the elders. If you don't dare to refuse, just listen to Mr. Zhuang." Yin Gao nodded.

"well."

Xuexue Zhuang said "good" two more times, then turned to Sheng Hong and said, "Dong Weng, would you like me, a junior, to come to Shengfu Academy to listen to the lessons together?"

"This..." Wang Ruofu was still a little hesitant after hearing this.

But Sheng Hong waved his hand: "Of course it doesn't matter, of course it doesn't matter. Now that the scholar has opened his mouth, it's not a big deal."

Zhuang Xuexue is the private tutor of Shengjia Academy. He is a teacher in Shengfu. Needless to say, he has a high status in Shengfu. Moreover, it is difficult to find teachers nowadays, and it is even more difficult to find teachers who are knowledgeable and well-established.

Naturally, Sheng Hong didn't dare to neglect. He just asked Yin Gao to study. It didn't matter. After all, wasn't the young prince from the Duke's mansion also studying in the school?

"In that case, thank you Dong Weng." Zhuang Xuexue said gratefully.

Sheng Hong waved his hand and said, "You're being polite, scholar. This brother is also a relative of our Sheng family. We are all members of our own family, haha, haha."

He laughed and winked at Wang Ruofu inadvertently.

"Oh? Is there anything else?" Zhuang Xuexuan glanced at Yin Gao in surprise.

Yin Gao nodded and replied: "My mother is the daughter of the Wei family in Jiangnan. There is an eldest sister above her, Aunt Wei from Sheng Mansion."

Upon hearing the words "Aunt Wei", Zhuang Xuejun's expression froze, and then he sighed.
