Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 796 Too Enthusiastic
"Alright." Mao Tongtong nodded.

After drinking too much hot milk, Mao Tongtong slowly became tired and fell asleep with a smile.

For the arrival of Mao Chengyun and Chen Shi, Uncle Chen was very happy. Although Su Shi was reluctant, but thinking of Mao Tongtong's care for Chen Ruzhu, he still showed enthusiasm on his face.

Mao Chengyun and his wife, who were resting in the guest room that night, could not sleep for a long time.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, Tongtong has changed." Chen said.Women are always more careful observation.Mao Tongtong has changed from a young girl to a woman. Coupled with the change of identity, his temperament is very different from when he was in Yangzhou.

"Yeah, after all, she is the one who has become a mother. She has grown up." Mao Chengyun also sighed.The little girl who would shake his arm and act coquettishly has become the boss of the huge Baylor House.

"Seeing that there is no gloomy look between Tongtong's eyebrows, she should be doing well." Chen Shi said.

"Just looking at how frequently she communicates with us, you know that Ba Ye really dotes on her. Who married into the royal family can contact her natal family so frequently? What's more, she is just a side Fujin." Mao Chengyun said.

"It's really reassuring to see it with my own eyes." Chen said: "I was worried that this year was another draft year, and the newcomers in the Ba Ye's house would have an impact on Tongtong's status. Now it seems that I am worrying about it." gone."

"I think Ba Ye is a person who values ​​friendship. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent an imperial physician from the capital to see you last year. Tongtong gave birth to her eldest son again, so he wouldn't just like the new and dislike the old." Mao Chengyun said.

The couple analyzed what they saw and heard today, and finally came to a result that satisfied both of them.Mao Tongtong had a good time in the eighth master's house.

The worry about Mao Tongtong for several years was finally relieved, coupled with the tiring journey, the couple soon fell asleep.

As for the Su family, they are still chattering with Uncle Chen.

"Your elder sister really wants to buy a house in the capital? Does she know how much money a house in the capital costs now? Can you get it? Don't ask us to borrow it then!"

"Is the eldest sister such a rare person? She asked me in the letter long ago. She must have asked me to inquire if she had money in her hand. The eldest sister said that it doesn't need to be big, a small courtyard with two entrances will do. She and her brother-in-law will take care of them in the future." Uncle Chen said with some displeasure.

Su said with a slightly uncomfortable expression: "It's good that she has the numbers. I'm afraid that she won't know the market, and she will be busy for nothing."

"I don't know you yet? I'm afraid that the eldest sister will reach out to us, isn't it?" Uncle Chen sneered, and said, "Don't let the eldest sister find out about your little thoughts! Shame! His daughter is now the eighth master's side Fujin, Don’t have any money in hand? Let alone buying a two-entry house, it’s okay to buy a bigger one.”

"That's what I said." Su Shi defended.

"Let me tell you, take good care of me during the period when my eldest sister and brother-in-law are living in our house. After that, who will depend on whom! Look at Ruzhu, if it wasn't for Tongtong making faces for her, Can she have the glory she has today in her husband's house? Let me explain to Xuan, she will definitely be promoted when she returns to Beijing this year to report on her work, and her future will be bright! Our family is going downhill, but the eldest sister's is going uphill! You, don't be too short-sighted! "Uncle Chen said earnestly.

Su Shi was speechless.Because what Uncle Chen said was true.She used to look down on the Chen family.But now, she has to admit that this family is getting better and better, and will soon surpass theirs.

Although she felt that Chen Ruyu would be more promising in the future.But now that the emperor is in good health, and the crown prince still doesn't know when he will succeed to the throne, the time for this more promising realization is really far away.

"Don't worry, I will take good care of you." Su Shi finally promised.

On the second day, when Mao Tongtong came to Uncle Chen's house, Mrs. Su warmly welcomed her.The enthusiasm made Mao Tongtong feel that he didn't know Mrs. Su soon.

Think back when she came to Beijing with Mrs. Chen, although Mrs. Su also welcomed her at the gate of the mansion, although she also had a smile on her face, there was a sense of alienation in that smile, which made it obvious that she was not sincerely welcome.

"Tongtong hasn't come here for a while. Come in and talk. Now that you, Ama and Erniang, have also come to Beijing, it's rare for our family to be together." Su actually held Mao Tongtong's arm.

Although Su Shi who is too polite makes people uncomfortable, but Su Shi who is too enthusiastic is also a bit unbearable.

But Mao Tongtong couldn't refuse, so he could only let Su's arms enter the house.

"Auntie, it's almost winter, I brought some high-quality leather. Please take care of me, Ama and Erniang, during these days." Mao Tongtong said.

"Look at you, why are you being so polite! We are all a family. You Ama and Er Niang came to the capital to stay at my house, so why not stay at the inn?" Su said angrily.

Mao Tongtong smiled and said: "Auntie is right. But this is also a little bit of my heart. You just want to honor you as a niece."

"That's right, brother and sister, don't be polite to her. It is the duty of the younger generation to respect the elders." Chen Shi also chimed in.

"Okay! I love to hear that! I won't be polite." Su Shi said with a smile.

The women here talked about their homework, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Uncle Chen is taking a rest today and is also at home.Then he chatted with Mao Chengyun.Both of them are members of the officialdom, and they exchanged news about the official assessment this time.After all, Uncle Chen is a Beijing official, so he is more informed, while Mao Chengyun mainly listens.

"If brother-in-law wants to stay in Beijing, I'm afraid he has to do some activities. There are not many vacancies in Beijing this year." Uncle Chen said.

"Activities? Who can I find? You know me too. I've been in Yangzhou all year round, and I don't have any contacts in Beijing other than knowing you." Mao Chengyun smiled bitterly: "I said staying in Beijing is just to try my luck. This year, the magistrate recommended me. But whether I can pass the assessment by the Ministry of Officials is unknown."

"Recommended by the magistrate?" Uncle Chen was a little surprised.

You must know that the current prefect of Yangzhou has been in office for some years.It can be said that Mao Chengyun has been the garrison for several years, and he has been the magistrate for several years.All these years, he never thought of recommending Mao Chengyun for promotion, why did he recommend it this year alone?
"The magistrate's daughter entered the Baye's mansion this year to be a princess." Mao Chengyun said.

This is also his own guess.Mao Tongtong is now a side Fujin, but Fang Ruoyun is just a geek, and she is overwhelmed.Could it be that the magistrate loves his daughter so much that he shows his affection to Mao Tongtong through him?Do you want Mao Tongtong to take care of Fang Ruoyun?
"Ah? There is such a coincidence?" Uncle Chen was taken aback, and said, "Is the prefect's daughter younger than Tongtong? How can I remember it was the same year?"
