Rebirth of the Main Room Manual

Chapter 157
Wang Wenyuan saw that his grandmother was so happy to be rewarded everywhere because he was on the list, and he couldn't help but look very happy. He hurried forward, lifted his robe and knelt down, kowtowed to Mrs. Zheng, and said:

"Grandmother, grandson Wen Yuan, I greet you!"

When Mrs. Zheng saw her grandson, she waved her hands happily and said, "Okay! Okay! Come here, Wenyuan, let grandma see you!"

Fang Baozhang was always following behind Wang Wenyuan, and Wang Wenyuan passed by after three detours, but Fang Baozhang was blocked by his mother, and finally squeezed up. Just as he was about to kneel down with his cousin, Wang Wenyuan had already got up and walked in front of Mrs. Zheng. Mrs. Zheng just pulled Wang Wenyuan to look left and right, and squinted her eyes with a smile. Where did she notice him?
Fang Baozhang could only stand dumbfounded, looking at his mother at a loss. Fang Zheng was very unhappy because the old lady gave money to Wang Wenyuan, and seeing his son's stupid look, he gave him a hard look. : If it were someone else, he would have followed Wang Wenyuan to the old lady's place immediately, but he was tied up, how could he look like a child of a big family!

Fang Zhengshi finally understands now: why she is so concerned about her eldest son who stays in the Fang family, and she loves and dotes on her younger son, but she doesn't care very much, that's because of the younger son Like his father, and the eldest son, Uncle Xiao, looks like her deceased brother Hou Ye!The eldest son is tall and strong. He only came to his grandmother's house when he was a child, but he was born with a calm and dignified demeanor that only aristocratic children can have. If he doesn't speak, others will not know that he is deep and shallow. Big, with such a good upbringing, he was sent to study in the largest academy in the capital, but he grew into such a cowardly character who is always panicked and restless. Fang Zheng's saying that he is not disappointed is a lie!
Fang Baozhang was stared at by his mother, and he became more and more embarrassed. Standing there, his face was blue and white, and he didn't know how to put his hands and feet.

It wasn't the first time Xia Yiqing saw this pair of cousins, but it wasn't many. After all, this was the third time seeing Fang Baozhang, and the second time seeing Wang Wenyuan.

Wang Wenyuan is under 19 years old and Fang Baozhang is 17 years old. The two cousins ​​have good facial features and are upper-middle-class talents. Wang Wenyuan is slightly taller and has fair skin. He can afford the pink eggplant-colored brocade robe. He is always smiling and very elegant The taste of a young man, but his temperament is a bit too girly, Yiqing thinks it's because of the pink eggplant-colored brocade robe.

There is nothing wrong with a man wearing pink eggplant color, but what a pink heart he has to accept it, right?
Fang Baozhang's complexion is slightly dark, and he wears a brocade robe with small sapphire blue flowers. He has an unnatural expression in his words and deeds, and is a little timid. Obviously, he is introverted and not good at communicating, but he is forced to do things he doesn't like because he doesn't understand. Yiqing imagines Fang Baozhang's life Under the guidance of Fang Zhengshi and Fang Baochan, it might not really be considered shelter, but more like mental abuse.

The old lady wanted to keep her cousins ​​for lunch, so Yiqing asked Mrs. Zheng: "Then, shall I go back with my cousins ​​for now?"

Even though he is a cousin who can get married as an adult, it is better for young female relatives to avoid it for a while.

This is a superficial rule, and Yiqing is unwilling to mix with them in private. With such a narrow-minded jealous woman as Fang Zheng, this lunch will not be very pleasant. Look at Fang Zheng's eyes on Wang Wenyuan I knew that she couldn't even tolerate her own nephew, so this meal should not taste good.

Unexpectedly, the old lady heard Yi Qing's words and said with a smile: "This meal was supposed to be held in the front yard for the men to eat and drink for a day, but Yan'er is not at home, so let's eat! Congratulate Wen Yuan Qing’er is a cousin, Yuejiao, Wenhui, Wenyuan, and Baozhang grew up together, they are all from our own family, so don’t shy away from it, let’s eat together at the same table!”

During the banquet, Wang Wenyuan was proud of the spring breeze, and toasted the old lady with a smile on his face, and then respected his aunt Mrs. Zheng and Mrs. Fang Zheng. He received a few words of congratulations from the old lady and Mrs. Zheng, and in front of the big guy, Mrs. Fang Zheng also had no choice but to say good things like Zhu Yuaner's high school imperial list. Yiqing thought that she was sister-in-law anyway, and Wang Wenyuan should also toast, so she silently made up a few words of blessing in her heart. He picked up the cup, but said:
"Biao sister-in-law, sisters Yuejiao and Wenhui, Wenyuan respects you, please!"

Yiqing watched the three of them drink up the wine in one gulp, put down the raised glass again, without even taking a sip, picked up the chopsticks to pick up vegetables to eat, Wang Wenyuan glanced at her, and she also turned her eyes to look back ——what's the matter?Want me to teach you the etiquette of toasting?It can't be done in order to save trouble, can it?Sister-in-law and younger sister respected together, but also want to kill three birds with one stone?You have the ability, go out and try it out, you are lucky not to be kicked out of the wine table!

However, Wang Wenyuan didn't know whether he had drunk too much or something else. After Yiqing looked at him like that, he felt that the stars and the moon were spinning around in his mind--I saw it right!My cousin, she, she glanced at me, her gaze was so bright, charming and enchanting!oops!No wonder people say that there is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book!I just won the apricot list, and I was favored by my beautiful cousin. If I won the imperial list, then...

Wenhui and Yuejiao were eating vegetables desperately after drinking to reduce the spicy taste in their mouths. Mrs. Zheng asked Fang Baozhang to eat more, and Yiqing sat under Mrs. Zheng, and Mrs. Zheng was busy holding chicken wings, duck wings and other Yiqings. Her favorite dish was put on the plate in front of Yiqing, and only Fang Zheng noticed the "eyes" between Yiqing and Wang Wenyuan.

I don't know whether it's because Wang Wenyuan doesn't drink enough or the fine wine stored in Rongping Hou Mansion is too easy to get drunk. Anyway, before the meal is finished, Wang Wenyuan is drunk and paralyzed on the table, watching Wang Wenhui and the maids help Wang Wenyuan to the back hall in a hurry Going to have a rest, Yiqing was speechless: he could get drunk by himself after having dinner with a group of women. This kind of wine would cause many jokes when he enters the officialdom in the future.

I couldn't help feeling sympathetic to Zheng Jingyan: Wang Wenyuan and Fang Baozhang, the two cousins, were the ones that the old lady insisted on helping him, but seeing these two living treasures like this, can they help them?
I don't know what Zheng Jingyan will do. If it's Yiqing, I really don't have much confidence.

At the same time, Zheng Jingyan in Prince Qin's mansion was sitting at the dining table, holding a copy of the list copied by the officials of the prince's mansion and watching silently, his face was cloudy and cloudy. King Qin thought that he cared about his cousin, and asked twice Did you hit it?It took Zheng Jingyan a while before he replied, "Well, I got hit!"

I really don't want to say this sentence, as if I am happy for others.

Seeing that he had thrown away the list, the King of Qin took it to look at it himself, but he couldn't find Wang Wenyuan's name, but he exclaimed: "The person who passed the Huiyuan exam is named Chen Boyuan! What did Cao Changshi say just now? He is from Huzhou , Jieyuan in the township examination! Now that I have won the Huiyuan again, if I work harder to win the champion, it will be the three yuan and the first place! Not bad! Huzhou is really outstanding, and there are many talents! This Chen Boyuan... By the way , Xia Yiqing is also from Huzhou!"

Zheng Jingyan was feeling uncomfortable, so he raised his eyes to look at King Qin: "Yiqing is at home well, what do you think she is doing?"

King Qin said: "I said Yiqing is from Huzhou, no wonder she is so versatile."

"Yiqing can't be considered talented. As a girl at home, who can't play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting? Look at Ah Zhen...Princess Qin, don't you learn more things? That's what you call versatile!"

Qin Wang looked at Zheng Jingyan eating with a sullen head, and smiled wryly: "Ah Zhen is indeed talented, but... oh! I don't know how to say it anymore! Eat, eat!"

Thinking that he would just pull the topic off like this, Zheng Jingyan really didn't want to mention that Chen Boyuan again, and the words Yiqing said made him very sad——Chen Boyuan, occupies a good page in my memory!
My heart is sour: If you miss it, you will miss it, and there will be no turning back!Yiqing, don't be troublesome!No, what do you think about him!He has nothing to do with you, forget him as soon as possible!

The two were eating in silence, when King Qin suddenly asked, "Ah Yan, didn't you have the ability to come out and be your cousin? Why didn't you marry Xu's daughter? I wanted to instead?"

Zheng Jingyan was stunned for a while, then looked at him and said, "You have been married to Princess Qin for so many years, why do you ask this?"

"Can't I just ask?"

"Okay, but I don't understand! But I think Princess Qin is very suitable for you. She is virtuous, intelligent, alert, and calm. It is also thanks to her that she holds the backyard of the palace for you. The inner house has always been calm, so you can do it wholeheartedly." My business!"

"I know this even if you don't tell me!"

The King of Qin glanced at him, sighed and said: "The Xu family is a scholarly family, noble for generations, and the daughters raised are all beautiful, intelligent and talented, and they have been the first choice for the royal concubine in the past! Ah Zhen comes from the Xu family, it is indeed excellent Yes! It's just...do you believe it? I am very uncomfortable with Ah Zhen, sometimes I feel like she is like my sister, sometimes I think she is like my mother..."

Zheng Jingyan was choked, turned his head and coughed several times, and looked at the door and window while wiping his mouth with a handkerchief.

Qin Wang said: "No one heard it!"

The corners of Zheng Jingyan's lips curled up slightly, showing a hint of a smile: "Actually, girls sometimes do that... I came home drunk once, and Yiqing changed my clothes, and she was very impatient, so she said to me: "Look at what my sister is doing." Get rid of you! At that time, I really didn't dare to move around, I thought it was good to have such a big sister!"

King Qin stared at Zheng Jingyan, feeling that he could not communicate with this guy for the first time: The situation I am talking about is completely different from your mood, okay?Sister Ah Zhen and Sister Xia Yiqing are basically different, right?Xia Yiqing, who knows how to write love letters like that, how to tell her sister to take care of you... Obviously she is the one who is kind and more interesting!Wooden Ayan, it’s fine if you don’t understand, and you still come to show off to me!You bastard!

Zheng Jingyan couldn't help it for a while, and shared with King Qin a little bit of his initial feelings for Yiqing, but he was seriously jealous. King Qin pushed several important matters to Zheng Jingyan, holding him back from returning to the Marquis Mansion. , Zheng Jingyan had finished all the things he should do before leaving the capital. King Qin really had no reason to detain him, and saw that his face was so dark that it was about to rain, so he allowed him to go back to the Marquis Mansion to say goodbye to his family and give him time. Only one hour!
Zheng Jingyan scolded King Qin bloody in his heart, and vowed not to discuss relationship issues with him again.
