Chapter 189

"Hurry up, hurry up, the list is released!" Someone shouted in front, whether it was the front, the back, the left or the right, anyway, it was the whole street, and they all headed for the gate of the Gongyuan. Su Qinghe and Shen Junxiu stood in the private room of the restaurant and watched. I couldn't help but sigh: "Why are there so many people?"

"That is, the event three years ago was cancelled, so there will naturally be more people this time." Shen Junxiu said with a smile, Su Qinghe clicked her tongue and continued to look down.I saw that the list was surrounded by people, and people squeezed in or squeezed out from time to time.

Some jumped up and down happily, while others burst into tears on the spot.There are all kinds of living beings, Su Qinghe has seen them all here today.

After waiting for about half an hour, it was finally the highlight of the day I was going to watch.A few boys in brown clothes squeezed in, glanced at the list, and shouted loudly, "Who is No.4?"

No one answered, the boy continued to shout, from the first list to the second list, after calling forty or fifty people, finally someone answered: "It's me, what's the matter?"

The young man looked him up and down, and nodded with a smile: "You look good, let me ask you, who is in the family? Have you ever married a wife?"

The man replied solemnly: "There are both parents in the family. The two older sisters above are married, and the lower one is not yet married."

The servants laughed loudly, waved their hands, turned around and left with the man in their arms: "Okay, it's you, we are members from the south of the city, and our girl is twenty-eight years old, beautiful and virtuous, exactly Good match."

The man's face was flushed, but he didn't struggle too much. He went outside to tidy up his clothes, and then left with the boy.

Su Qinghe was puzzled while watching happily: "Isn't this person afraid that the girl from that family is a salt-free girl?"

"So what if it's a girl without salt? This girl can tell at a glance that her family is poor. Now she's just a second-year girl. If she wants to fill a gap, she needs to have money. Even if the girl's family is just a foreigner , That’s also from the capital.”

Shen Junxiu said nonchalantly, thought for a while, and added a few words: "What's more, what's the matter if the wife is not good-looking? As long as the concubine is beautiful."

Su Qinghe shook her head greatly: "Didn't this girl's family harm this girl? If this behavior is of bad character, and when she finds a job and asks for her wife's dowry, will this girl still have a way out in the future? ?”

This kind of thing should be uncommon, right?
"Do you think this girl's family is stupid?" Shen Junxiu pouted and said, "Since they dare to marry the girl, either the girl is beautiful and can make this girl think about it, and then the husband and wife will be harmonious. Either it is this girl A man who is scheming and able to control himself. If the above two things are not there, and the girl is ugly and stupid, then the girl's family will marry a smart one, or she has mastered the handle of this move, and in the future her own Once something happens to the girl, the official career of this son will come to an end. There is always a solution to everything, since the custom of catching a son-in-law under the list can be passed down, it has its merits."

Su Qinghe thought for a while, nodded, indeed, and if she was lucky and had a good personality, it would also be a great help to the woman's family.In other words, this gamble is [-]/[-]. If you win, it is a win-win situation. If you lose, it may be a double-lose situation.

Generally speaking, everyone is smarter and will choose the win-win option.As for whether the girls are doing well or not, seven or eight out of ten officials are servants of concubines.

"Okay, we've finished watching the good show, and we should go back." Su Qinghe thought for a while, sighed, and then reached out to pat Shen Junxiu on the shoulder: "When you go back later, remember to go to Pinglefang, Lekang is the most I like the fish balls from Xianweiju, let’s buy more.”

Shen Junxiu nodded with a smile, drank the wine in his glass, got up and said, "You spent a whole day just to watch a list to catch your son-in-law?"

"Yes, my cousin is 16 years old this year, and it's time to find someone else. Earlier, my fifth aunt said that she wanted to catch a son-in-law, so let me see what's going on first." Su Qinghe curled her lips and said, "Now It seems that catching a son-in-law under the list is nothing more than that, and these people are not very reliable, so we have to persuade Fifth Aunt to give up her idea when I go back."

Shen Junxiu pulled Su Qinghe downstairs: "This idea is indeed not very good, but, why didn't Uncle Wu make a plan earlier? Those candidates always have to come in advance when they enter the imperial examination in Beijing. Uncle Wu asked someone to inquire first. Don't you need to worry about the character of these people now?"

"At that time, can you tell who passed the exam and who didn't? It's not the fifth aunt, do you think that if those people fail the exam, Qing Dan will be delayed?" Su Qinghe sighed and said: "I I told her a few candidates a few days ago, but Fifth Aunt didn't think much of them."

"Is that so, why don't you ask the third sister-in-law for help?" Shen Junxiu thought for a while and asked, Su Qinghe shook her head: "Forget it, the third sister-in-law is very busy these days, I'm afraid I don't have time, I'll look for it myself. Yes Well, a few days ago, Zhuangzi sent a message saying that the research is about to be done, let's go and have a look?"

"Okay, let's go tomorrow." Shen Junxiu thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow is just going to take a bath, so bring Le Kang with you, and let's relax on Zhuangzi by the way."

After getting into the carriage, Su Qinghe turned to look at Shen Junxiu, seeing that his face was a little tired, she couldn't help pinching his eyebrows in distress: "Recently there are a lot of things going on in the court?"

Shen Junxiu nodded, did not speak, and only held Su Qinghe in his arms.Su Qinghe saw that he was unwilling to say anything, so she didn't ask too much.After buying fish balls at Pinglefang, the two of them went straight home.

As soon as he entered Tao Ranju, he saw Le Kang rushing over in bright red clothes: "Father and mother, you didn't bring me when you went out to play by yourself!"

Shen Junxiu showed a smile, reached out to catch the small cannonball that rushed over, held it in his arms, and pinched the pink and smooth cheeks: "Aren't you sleeping at noon? Parents didn't take you, but gave you I bought something delicious."

Le Kang still had a little resentment: "You can wake me up! I didn't even go out to play! Daddy doesn't count what he said, and he said before that he would take me to ride a horse!"

As he said that, the child's eyes turned red: "Daddy's words don't count. If you go out to play by yourself, you don't want to be happy."

Shen Junxiu has always loved this son, and when he saw his son was about to cry, he hurriedly coaxed him: "My dear son, don't cry, it doesn't count if your father didn't speak, today I went out with your mother in a carriage, not on a horse. Parents love you Sleep soundly, that's why I didn't call you."

The child became even angrier. Could it be possible not to take him with him when he went out in a carriage?
Su Qinghe hurried over to help coax: "My dear son, don't be angry, we are actually going out today to explore the road. Didn't your father promise to take you out for a horse ride? We will go horseback riding tomorrow! However, you must first know the road when riding a horse." Is there anyone there, right? So we went to have a look today, if there are people on the road, we have to go another way."

Le Kang was very skeptical: "Really? Did you lie to me?"

"Of course not, when did mother lie to you? We are really going to go out on horseback tomorrow, to the Zhuangzi we visited last time, remember?" Su Qinghe hugged Le Kang with a smile, and Le Kang hugged Su Qinghe's neck Looking back, I clapped my hands for a long time: "Oh, is it the Zhuangzi where Brother Xiang lives?"

The corners of Su Qinghe's mouth twitched, and he nodded: "Yes, does Le Kang want Brother Xiang?"

"I thought about it, last time I said I would bring my little wooden horse to brother Xiang, mother, let's find the little wooden horse quickly." Le Kang clapped his hands happily, Su Qinghe carried Le Kang into the house, and Shen Junxiu was there Reach out to Le Kang from behind: "My dear son, you have grown up, and your mother can't hold you anymore. Come, let Daddy hold you?"

Le Kang was a little displeased, Shen Junxiu hastened to make persistent efforts: "If you let Daddy hold you, Daddy will make you a small wooden sword next time?"

"Okay then, Daddy will make two for me, and I will give one to brother Xiang." Le Kang took the opportunity to raise conditions, and Shen Junxiu agreed one by one with a smile, and successfully coaxed the little fat man off his wife. Winking at Su Qinghe triumphantly, the corners of Su Qinghe's mouth twitched.

"You are too careful, the imperial doctor said that I am in good health." After entering the door, Su Qinghe said with a smile, Shen Junxiu shook his head: "If Le Kang kicked your stomach, wouldn't it be terrible ?”

Su Qinghe rolled his eyes at him: "How can it be such a coincidence? Besides, we, Le Kang, understand things, right, Le Kang?"

Le Kang nodded quickly: "Yes, Daddy said before that Mother has a little brother in her stomach, so I can't touch Mother's belly, Le Kang remember, Le Kang is a good boy, Daddy is not good, I saw Daddy in the morning I touched my mother's belly!"

Seeing his son's accusing little face, Shen Junxiu was very embarrassed, rubbed his nose and argued: "Father is looking at whether the little brother is good or not." Le Kang immediately climbed up the pole: "Then I also want to see if the little brother is good or not! "

Shen Junxiu was a little embarrassed, but Su Qinghe didn't care: "How strong a child can be, come on, Le Kang, say hello to your brother."

After speaking, he pulled Le Kang's hand and put it on his stomach, but Le Kang was so happy that he touched a large circle carefully, and looked up at Su Qinghe in doubt: "Mother, didn't you say that you want my brother and me?" Did you say hello? Why didn’t I touch anything, is the little brother in your belly? Your belly is so small, can you hold it?”

Su Qinghe stretched out her hand and gestured: "Your brother is only this old now, so you can't touch anything. After a few months, he will grow up slowly, and you will be able to touch it by then."

"How old will it grow? Will it burst my mother's stomach?" Le Kang was a little worried, Su Qinghe couldn't help laughing, kissed Le Kang, shook his head: "No, when he grows so big, he will It came out of mother's belly, and then you can play with him."

Seeing that Le Kang's questions were getting more and more tricky, Su Qinghe quickly changed the subject: "By the way, we brought your favorite fish balls, why don't you eat them? Today's fish balls are cooked with mushroom soup , it’s delicious.”

After all, Le Kang is a child, and he was immediately attracted by the food: "Okay, I want to eat fish balls."

The little Nanny Liu hurried over to get the bowl and spoon, and opened the food box Shen Junxiu brought back. The cute appearance makes Su Qinghe and Shen Junxiu fall in love.
