Chapter 206
"What do you mean?" Yingruo raised her eyebrows, "They don't want to stay in the capital, so why do they have to come to a small place like Mizhou? As I remember, they are older than my sister."

Chu Qiaoruo bit her lower lip, and said: "The big hall brother Chu Qingyang is one year older than me, and the big hall sister Chu Qinghua is two years older than me. The big hall sister was married the year before last, and my mother even sent someone to the capital to add makeup. She also wants Come?"

Chu Chengruo also frowned and said: "I don't like my eldest cousin. When I was six years old, my father took me to the uncle's house in the capital to celebrate the New Year. He always bullied me, saying that I was a bumpkin from the countryside. Their nostrils are all upturned. This time You actually came to Mizhou, did you commit something in the capital?"

Seeing the repulsive reactions of her sons and daughters, Mrs. Xie couldn't help sighing heavily.Speaking of which, although Chu Zijiu and Chu Minxing are blood brothers, since she married Chu Zijiu, the relationship between the two families is really not very close, that is, they go to the ceremony during the New Year and holidays.

The old lady of the Chu family is a model who dislikes the poor and loves the rich. After Chu Minxing stayed in the capital as an official, the old lady followed and never returned to Yulan County, a poor place.

After Chu Zijiu gave up the imperial examination for her, the members of the Chu family's first room treated their second room more and more with disdain.With that kind of feeling, I wish I could not have the Second Household, so as not to tarnish the face of their family's glorious Beijing official.

Therefore, five years ago, when Chu Qiaoruo wanted to go to the Dafang, the Xie family would oppose it to the death. Of course, the main reason for this was because of the Cui family, but there were also reasons for the Dafang.

But since Chu Zijiu won the first prize three years ago and gained more and more face in front of Jinshang, Dafang's thoughts suddenly became warmer.

Mrs. Xie scanned around the three children, "I have no contact with what Dafang's children look like, so I don't know much about them. Your father said something, but I think that because of his good-natured temperament, the It must be mixed with half of the water. But even so, it can be seen that he is not a person worthy of close friendship. Therefore, Cheng Ruo originally wanted to delay the trip until after the autumn because of Ying Ruo's return. Now it seems that it is still The sooner the better, it's best to start on the road before they arrive."

Ying Ruoduan put a serious face on her face, "Brother Datang really committed a crime in the capital?"

Mrs. Xie wanted to send Chu Chengruo away so eagerly, but she was afraid that those who were close to Zhu would be red and those who were close to ink would be black.

Otherwise, Chu Qingyang, who is close to the age of the crown, should be a good time to start a family and start a business. What is he going to Mizhou for?
People go to high places, and water flows to low places.

How can someone who is used to being pampered and pampered in the capital be willing to come here?In Chu Qingyang's words, how could he be willing to be with bumpkins.

Mrs. Xie took a serious look at her little daughter, and now she looks like a little adult again. "Your father's letter just said that Chu Qingyang doesn't like reading, and he can't endure hardships in martial arts. He hasn't had a serious job yet. Because he's idle all day, he gets mixed up with a group of people who don't know the key. This time The main reason for him to come to Mizhou is to let him stay away from those scumbags, calm down his temper, and see if he can enter the academy here so that he can continue his studies."

They are all good words on the surface, but no one is a fool. After all, Chu Qingyang is an out-and-out dude.He can't succeed in literature and martial arts, but his own father is not capable, so he couldn't arrange a good job for him.

I'm afraid he had some wrong thoughts when he was sent to Mizhou.

Chu Chengruo snorted, "I'm not surprised what he looks like."

Yingruo said firmly: "He must have committed a major event in the capital that even my father can't handle, so he was sent to us. In the end, he just threw a trouble for mother."

Xie snorted coldly, "I know it well."

Yingruo pursed her lips, "I remember that my uncle is a military officer. It stands to reason that he doesn't like reading, so shouldn't he just be sent to the military camp? My uncle can use his connections to take care of him. Why do you have to force him to study? "

Chu Qiaoruo's pretty face had already turned pale, "I'm afraid he was kicked out of the barracks."

Yingruo stretched out her hand and shook her hand, "No matter what kind of demon king he is, once he is here in Mizhou, he can't let him behave wildly. Then what is Chu Qinghua doing here as a married woman?"

I have to inquire about it in the future, or write to my aunt in Jingzhong, or trouble Li Guangyu.

She thought about not using the latter as much as possible, after all, the relationship between the two of them has not been straightened out yet.

Mrs. Xie said: "Your eldest sister is not ordinary, she is a talented woman!"

Yingruo didn't react too much when she heard the word "talented woman". In her opinion, what can a woman do if she has won the name of talent?What can it bring her in the future?

Xie Shi was a good counterexample back then.If she hadn't been known far and wide, how could she have been coveted by Cui Junxie and brought disaster?

But there are still many women who are chasing talented women one after another, just for the sake of having a good relationship and marrying a good husband.Then, there is no more.A generation of talented women fell into the back house.

It's actually quite sad.

Chu Qiaoruo said: "Didn't you say she married well?"

Xie said: "Your father's letter did say that she used to be the daughter of a sixth-rank military officer, and she was able to marry Yang Rundong, the second son of the Marquis of Changlong's mansion. That is indeed not easy."

Yingruo raised the corners of her lips, "Unexpectedly, talented women also have shallow eyelids."

Mrs. Xie looked over with great interest, "What? That's the Hou Mansion! You don't think so?"

Yingruo said: "Mother, the Daqi Dynasty has been established for more than a hundred years. If the family of nobles only relies on the shadow of the ancestors, it will not last long. Today, the nobles in Beijing are left behind. The Duke's Mansion, with the presence of the eldest princess, and Uncle Shen, a genius, can keep the glory for two more generations. Next is the Cui family of the Marquis of Wen'an. At the beginning of the Daqi Dynasty, the Cui family He was only granted the title of Earl, and was later promoted to Marquis because of Empress Cui. Now that the descendants are unpopular, it will be a matter of time before the Mansion of Marquis Wen'an collapses."

Chu Chengruo nodded and listened, "Since my younger sister has been with the eldest princess, she has become a treasure to the dignitaries in Beijing."

Yingruo said: "Because Daddy is an official in the capital and wanders among the rich and powerful, there is no harm in knowing more about these common-sense things."

Mrs. Xie nodded, "As the saying goes, you can't be rich for three generations. After a noble family gets rich, they just want to enjoy it to the fullest, but they don't pay much attention to the cultivation of future generations, so that after three generations, most of them have successors." No-one's situation."

Yingruo said: "Exactly! Whether it is the Yang family of the Marquis of Changlong or the Chen family of the Marquis of Shengxing, there is a phenomenon of discontinuity, and there are no outstanding people among the descendants."
