Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

After all, Su Mu is the No. [-] Scholar in the new department, and he passed the main exam. In fact, no one was surprised.Moreover, he bears the title of a great celebrity, so it would be a strange thing if he didn't win!

But he knows his own affairs best. Su Mu knows that his half-baked Chinese culture is nothing but a big intellectual.No matter how hard you work the day after tomorrow, you will never be able to catch up with the scholars of your time in your lifetime.

If he wins, he wins, and Su Mu can only describe this as his own character.

However, it would be great if the main examiner in Beijing or Beizhili, or even Shandong, passed the exam.But in the end, he was sent to Shaanxi.

That place is really far away. With the traffic conditions of this era, it takes four months to go back and forth, plus the month of Qiu Wei, half a year has passed.In other words, Su Mu will have to leave Beijing in May next year.

This matter made Su Mu very depressed, but on the surface he had to pretend to be happy to accept the congratulations from his colleagues, and even bought everyone a meal at the most high-end restaurant in the capital at his own expense.

Su Mu's character is strong, and Kang Hai's character is even stronger, so he directly won the post of chief examiner in Jiangxi.That place has contracted almost half of the Jinshi places in the country for more than 100 years.Upon receiving this news, the eyes of other members of the Hanlin Academy turned green with envy.

After eating the wine, he was a little drunk, and Su Mu's mood improved a lot.

Then I thought about it, the people in Shaanxi are grounded, and it is a place that produces talents.For example, Kang Hai, Li Mengyang, and Liu Jinke are all from Guanzhong.If I go to Shaanxi next year, I might be able to recruit many outstanding students.Well, it's only half a year, let's go!

After leaving the restaurant, Su Mu felt dizzy and suddenly didn't know where he should go, whether he should go back to the mansion directly or go to Hu Ying's place.

As a modern person, these two women are equally important in his mind. It can be said that both sides are his home.

Su Mu stretched out his hand, tore off a handful of leaves from a branch by the road, and counted them one by one: "Yun'er, Ying'er, Yun'er, Ying'er...Yun'er...cough, let's go back home!"

Throwing away the leaves in his hands, Su Mu's heart swayed when he recalled the beautiful scenery of several women together with him.

Since traveling to the Ming Dynasty, Su Mu cherishes his feathers, and has always been very stable in matters of men and women, never going out of the brothel Chu Pavilion.Now that they are married, and they are still young, but they know what it is like, and the relationship with the three women is even stronger.

After returning home, it was still dark, so Su Mu went to the study to drink tea to sober up.

Today it was a servant girl with big hands and feet who came to serve the marquis, Su Mu was very surprised and asked, "Where is Xiaodie?"

You know, in the Su Mansion, the study room is a sacred place.Moreover, Su Mu likes to be clean, and he doesn't like to be disturbed when he is reading.Therefore, when he was in the study, Xiaodie usually came to serve him.

The maid said: "Master, Auntie has a stomachache and can't get up on the bed."

Only then did Su Mu say "Oh" and asked, "Is it important?"

Only then did he remember that Xiaodie has been in poor health recently, and he invited a doctor to come over to check her pulse, saying that it was dysmenorrhea, and she felt particularly uncomfortable during those few days of the month.

Maid: "My aunt has already rested after eating hot soup, so it's not considered sick, just rest for two days."

"This Xiaodie, how did you get this problem?" Su Mu was worried, frowned and shook his head.

The maid started to light the fire to make tea for Su Mu, but her hands and feet were too clumsy, so she couldn't do it for a long time.

Su Mu was even more depressed, and waved her out: "Forget it, I'll do it!"

While doing this, Mrs. Wu came over with the maid from just now, and took the small hammer for scooping tea from Su Mu with a smile: "Let me come as a concubine. Although I am not as proficient as Xiaodie, it is still drinkable." .”

Su Mu smiled and said: "Actually, I just like the ancient method of making tea these days, so I should try something new. In fact, the tea brewed by this ancient method is not as good as making tea, but the color and fragrance are much worse. Han and Tang Dynasties There is a reason why boiled tea is replaced by fried tea.”

Mrs. Wu tapped the tea cake carefully, and said: "Each flower is in each eye. In fact, after the ancient tea cake is fermented, drinking it is good for people's stomach. It will hurt the spleen and stomach."

She talked eloquently, and Su Mu couldn't help but nodded.

Looking closely again, she saw that Miss Wu's skin was much fairer than before.After this woman passed through the personnel affairs, her whole face was radiant, and her skin also exuded a faint luster, which looked like a suet white jade.

Seeing her slender handwriting and onion-like fingers again, Su Mu felt a surge of heat in his lower abdomen.

She couldn't help reaching out and grabbing her right hand: "Yun'er."

At this moment, Mrs. Wu suddenly let out a soft cry, stood up abruptly, walked to the spittoon, and spit out a mouthful of clear water with a "wow".

This vomit only brought tears to his eyes.

Su Mu was stunned by this sudden scene, and it took a long time before he went up to support her, and asked anxiously: "What's wrong with you, but you've caught a cold, someone is here, please doctor!"

"No, no." Mrs. Wu wiped her small mouth with a handkerchief and said with a smile.

"Why don't you use it, you're vomiting like this." Su Mu suddenly became angry: "This disease can't be delayed, otherwise what should I do if it becomes a serious illness?"

Seeing that the tendon on Su Mu's forehead was throbbing with anger, Mrs. Wu smiled: "Master, look at you, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Can I be in a hurry?"

Next to it, the maid suddenly screamed: "Madam, are you happy?"

"Ah!" Su Mu was struck by lightning, and it took him a long time to shake Mrs. Wu's hand and ask, "Is it really?"

Mrs. Wu was extremely shy, blushed, and said in a low voice: "Two months ago, my concubine's monthly letter did not come. I was not in good health before, so I can't be sure. I suddenly felt sick these few days, I think so."

Su Mu: "Then, I'm going to be called Langzhong, please hurry up!"

This news caused chaos in the Su residence, and soon, Zhao Hulu quickly left with a sedan chair and invited the doctor back.

In the end, the doctor took his pulse and said, "Congratulations, Madam, this is a happy pulse. It's probably three months old."

"Haha, haha!" Su Mu laughed loudly, this surprise came too suddenly.

To be honest, although he is a modern person.But it is very traditional in its bones, which means a bit of feudal remnants.For example, he likes the feeling of having children in groups.

For him, the more children the better.

After laughing, Su Mu hugged Mrs. Wu: "Mrs. Hardworking, you are pregnant with Liujia, you should go to bed earlier and pay attention to your body."

The news of Mrs. Wu's pregnancy naturally alarmed Xiaodie, who also laughed happily and recited ten times of Buddha. ,

Seeing the master hugging his wife, Xiaodie hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, and said seriously: "Master, from now on, you have to sleep in a separate room with your wife, this is the Wu family's rule."

Su Mu Daqi: "Why do you want to divide the room? It doesn't make sense?"

Xiaodie's face was flushed, and after a long time, she whispered: "Be careful not to hurt the child."

In front of such a servant girl, not only Xiaodie, but also Su Mu felt embarrassed.

That night, Su Mu shared a room with Mrs. Wu.

Xiaodie also didn't stay with Su Mu because of dysmenorrhea.

Shocked by the good news that he was going to be a father, Su Mu didn't sleep well that night.

He thought on the bed that Mrs. Wu was three months pregnant, and she would give birth in July next year at the most.If I went to Shaanxi to be an examiner, wouldn't I miss the day when my son was born.In ancient times when medicine was backward, giving birth to a woman was like walking through the gate of hell.At such a critical juncture, I, the husband, naturally want to be with her.

No, I have to find a way to quit this job.

On the second day, Su Mu went to the Hanlin Academy, and it happened that Yang Tinghe was also there.

Su Mu asked insincerely, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was no chief examiner of the rural examination who failed to preside over the examination in the end?

Yang Tinghe didn't doubt him, and said in a very blunt tone that he had never heard of it before. It was a great honor to be able to preside over the provincial examination.

"In the fourth year of Xuande's Guangxi provincial examination, one of the examiners was seriously ill. In order to prevent him from dying in office, the imperial court specially gave him a coffin, covered his face with brocade, and placed it directly on the examination room. It is still a good story to this day."

Speaking of this, Yang Tinghe glanced at Su Mu, "Why do you think of asking this question?"

Su Mu was speechless, listening to what Lao Yang said, if you are the main examiner, if you can't die, you have to go to the examination room.From the looks of it, it was unlikely that he would quit this job.

Moreover, everyone in the officialdom regards presiding over a province's township examination as the greatest honor. If I don't want to go, I'm afraid I will be regarded as crazy.

Thinking of this, Su Mu was even more depressed to death.

In the afternoon, he came out of the Imperial Academy. According to the custom, he was going to Hu Ying's place today.

When they arrived at Hu's house, they suddenly saw Hu Shun open the middle door, and cheerfully sent a sixth-rank official out the door.

Su Mu knew this person, he was the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital.

Su Mu was stunned first, could it be that the Hu family is sick again.

Then he laughed again, Guozijian and Wenwen, the prescriptions of Taiyuan Hospital, these are the two most unreliable things in the world.When he got sick, he invited the imperial physician to see him. Isn't Hu Shun confused?

It turned out that the imperial physicians of the imperial hospital were not so much doctors as officials.If you want to be successful in Taiyuan Hospital, you don't need to have great medical skills. First of all, you have to know how to be an official, and secondly, you have to know how to judge people.

To put it bluntly, the Imperial Hospital is originally a royal hospital, and the patients are either emperors, empresses, or officials. If you take the wrong medicine and accidentally make the big shots suffer from it, even if you have ten heads, it is not enough to chop off.

Therefore, most of the prescriptions in Taiyuan Hospital are mild. It doesn't matter whether they can cure the disease or not. First of all, they should not eat dead people.

Therefore, what they prescribe the most is Xiao Bupleurum Soup.

Tonics such as jujube, gouqi, and Codonopsis ginseng are used even more quickly, so that if the patient has something bad or bad, they will be traced to the responsibility in the future, and there will be an explanation----these medicines will not kill people .

The imperial doctor also knew Su Mu, when he saw him, he cupped his hands and said loudly: "So it's Xueshi Su, congratulations, congratulations!"

Su Mu was at a loss: "What are you congratulating me for?"

"Congratulations to Xueshi Su on becoming a father. Just now Master Hu invited his subordinates to see Mrs. Hu's doctor. The subordinates saw that it was the pulse of joy. It has been more than two months since the womb has been darkened."

"Ah, Hu Ying is pregnant!" Su Mu opened his mouth wide in surprise, the two wives were happy at the same time, the hit rate is so high!
