The lady escaped marriage and became addicted

Chapter 82 Qian and Zhao's Marriage, Under the Moon (8)
But Mrs. Wang, who was standing at the door of the kitchen and peeked out without knowing what was going on, didn't think so.No matter how she looked at it, she felt that the young master of the county magistrate's family was a little unusual for sister ran.Even my own sister, she doesn't spoil her like this, does she?Could it be that the second uncle wants sister Ran to grow up to be the young master's concubine?

Thinking of this, Wang's heart suddenly moved.However, my sister is only five years old this year, so why do I have to wait ten years before getting married.On the contrary, An Shu in my own family is fourteen this year, and she looks juicy. If she can be a concubine for the young master, she will be popular and drink spicy food in the future, and enjoy endless glory and wealth.The most rare thing is that the eldest young master has a good-looking talent and a good temper. Such a son-in-law is hard to find even with a lantern!Gu Wanniang is really good at calculating, since her daughter is so young, she is attracted to the officials.

Mrs. Wang slipped home immediately, dressed An Shu well, and brought her here.

Just at this time, Zhao Shihua came back with Qian Pengyang and his party.People from Zhao's family and Qian Rui were picked up, but no one noticed her.

Qian Pengyang's food, lodging and transportation for this trip were arranged in advance by Jin Tutou and six yamen servants. He originally planned to use it at Master Yao's house tonight, but since Qian Pengyang wanted to be in-laws with the Zhao family, he refused. After going to Master Yao's side, he planned to live in Zhao's house, and it was considered as a face to Zhao's parents.Although the conditions of the Zhao family did not seem to be very good, it was only for one night, and it was enough to make do with it.

The meals were almost ready, several men from the Zhao family welcomed Mr. Qian in, first brought hot water over for them to wash their faces and wipe their hands, then brought tea soup, and finally served the prepared meals.

Qian Pengyang, Qian Rui, his son, and Jin Butou were accompanied by Zhao Shihua, his father Zhao Maosheng, his elder brother Zhao Shirong and Annan Anqi, and the other yamen servants were accompanied by Zhao Shifu, and they held two tables in the main room.Women and children eat in the kitchen and are not present.

When Zhao Shihua wrote the letter, he mentioned that he asked his eldest brother to invite his brother-in-law Wei Qingyuan, but he didn't know why he didn't see him.It's just that in front of Mr. Qian, he couldn't ask directly, so he could only turn a corner and ask his father: "My sister is six months old, right? Is your health okay? Can Qingyuan come here?"

Qian Pengyang heard the word Qingyuan sound familiar, so he listened attentively.

I only heard Zhao Maosheng reply: "Fortunately, your third brother went to see the day before yesterday. He was originally planning to invite him to meet the county lord, but he said that there are three women in the family, the old one, the young one, Your sister is pregnant again, he won't worry, so he won't come."

Zhao Shihua nodded, and quickly changed the subject, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.This brother-in-law is good in everything else, but he is a little pedantic, as if he came to meet the county lord, others would say that he is flattering and clinging to the authority.In the final analysis, he is still a bit arrogant about his talents, thinking that with his own talents, he doesn't need to cling to anyone.

But in fact, how can this be regarded as clinging?Mr. Qian is also a scholar of the two ranks. If he abandons the official position of the county magistrate, is there no place for him to make friends and learn from?
It was Qian Pengyang who asked first: "Sheng Lin, are you talking about Wei Xiucai Wei Qingyuan from Ping'an Town?"

Zhao Shihua nodded, and generously admitted: "Exactly. Qingyuan married my younger sister last fall, so I sent him a letter before, and originally wanted to take this opportunity to ask adults to give him advice."

Qian Pengyang took a sip of wine, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Wei Xiucai from Ping'an Town, I know. He is quite talented. He has read more books than you, but he is not as capable as Sheng Lin. If he is willing to In practice, learn a thing or two from you, and you will be able to pass this subject."

Qian Pengyang hit the point with one sentence.Wei Qingyuan's book business has become a little more serious, and he can talk about it on paper. If it is the same test questions as before, he should be no problem as a candidate.But judging from last year's situation, I'm afraid he will be disappointed in the rural examination this year.Zhao Shihua sighed secretly, and only hoped to have a good talk with this brother-in-law when he went to the state capital to take the provincial examination.

An Ran was full in the kitchen, and came out to listen to the grown-ups beside her father.

An Qi saw her and waved to her with a smile.An Ran passed by, and An Qi handed her half of his salted duck egg yolk and said, "Take it and eat it, brother will keep it for you!"

There are no good things to eat in the countryside, and the salted duck eggs soaked are considered a good thing to improve life, but An Ran only likes to eat the bright red duck egg yolks that have been turned into sand.

Seeing Qian Rui, he kept it silently in his heart.After An Ran finished eating, he also put down his chopsticks, and said to Qian Pengyang: "Father, I'm full, let's go for a walk in the yard with Sister Ran for a casual meal."

Qian Pengyang nodded, Qian Rui got up and took An Ran out.

Seeing that Qian Rui and An Ran had gone out, Mrs. Wang immediately went back to the kitchen and called the eldest daughter over, and whispered a few words to let her go out to "greet the guests".

An Shu listened to her mother's words, and glared at her with a bit of embarrassment. She refused to lose face, but stomped her feet and ran back to the room with a blushing face.Although Mrs. Rong didn't hear clearly what Mrs. Wang said to her granddaughter, she knew from her granddaughter's appearance that it was not a good word, so she immediately reprimanded Mrs. Wang in a low voice.

Unwilling, Mrs. Wang didn't reply. Seeing that there was nothing else going on in the kitchen, she followed her daughter out.

In the yard, An Ran and Qian Rui walked and chatted hand in hand.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wang curled her lips secretly, not knowing what a big man like Qian Rui has to say to a little girl like An Ran, but they are still talking so happily.She was about to go back to her room to "teach" her daughter, when she suddenly saw someone waving at her at the gate of the small courtyard, so she walked out lightly.

Because Mr. Qian and his party stayed at Zhao's house tonight, Mr. Qian and his family had to live in the house at the west end of Anran Village, and their family could only live in the old house.Fortunately, although the two houses in their house were given to the uncle's family, after the little aunt got married, her house became vacant and there was still room to sleep.

It's actually not too late now, An Ran estimates it's only around eight o'clock.It's just that dusk has started, and every household has lit dim oil lamps, and the evening breeze is blowing, making it feel like it's very late.It was the first time for Qian Rui to spend the night in the countryside. Seeing such a scene and smelling the smell of green grass and soil in the air, he felt very comfortable and interesting.

"Like in a painting," he sighed.

"The painting is much more beautiful than this one! Big brother, tell me a story!" An Ran didn't think there was anything interesting about it.I just walked around the yard slowly with him, feeling the gentle evening wind and the peace and tranquility of the night, and I also felt a kind of peace and tranquility in my heart.
