Dad, Did You Study Today?

Chapter 95 Urging Marriage

Coming out of the Imperial Study, it was snowing outside.

Looking up at the endless snowflakes falling from the sky, Shen Li took a long breath and sighed.

I wonder if it snowed in Qingyang Village.

I really want to watch the snow with Zhou Qing.

There was a temporary breakthrough in the matter at hand, and Shen Li's nerves, which had been tense since returning to Beijing, relaxed a little.

Hu Weiyue is the current prefect and concurrently serves as the academician. He will still be the chief examiner for the next college examination.

After leaving the palace, he ordered his attendants, "Go and find the files that Hu Weiyue used to refer to. I want all of them."

The attendant looked at Shen Li teasingly, "Yes."

When Shen Li returned home, the masters of the Guangping Marquis's mansion were gathered in the old lady's room.

The masters of the mansion are just the old lady, the Guangping Marquis, the Guangping Marquis's wife, and the only lady of the Guangping Marquis' mansion.

The Guangping Marquis' mansion has a small population, which can be called a strange flower in Kyoto.

At that time, the old uncle and the old lady had only one son, Guangping Bo.

The reason was simple. After giving birth once, the old lady was afraid of the pain and dared not give birth again.

She was afraid that she could not bear the pain and died directly.

That would be unacceptable!

She died for giving birth to a baby. Would she let the old uncle marry another little bitch to sleep with her man and beat her baby?

The old lady had this understanding. When her son Guangping Bo got married, she successfully persuaded her daughter-in-law to think of her own ideas.

It was just that Guangping Bo's wife valued girls more than boys. She gave birth to a son, Shen Li, as her first child, and felt that her life was a little flawed.

Three or four years later, she gave birth to a daughter, Shen Xin.

Shen Li came in with a cold body. Shen Xin looked at him with a smile, and the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of uncontrollable excitement.

"Brother, we are going to Xishan Hot Springs for the New Year this year."

Last month, the emperor gave Guangping Bo's mansion a hot spring villa.

It is still under repair.

It will be completed before the New Year.

Shen Li smiled at her, turned around and bowed to the old lady and his parents, and sat down on a chair across the table from Shen Xin.

"Come to think of it, I haven't been to a hot spring for more than half a year."

As soon as Shen Li said this, Shen Xin looked at him with disgust and shock, "Are you going to go with us?"

Shen Li

It's New Year's Day, if I don't go with you, am I going to stay up all night at home alone?

The old lady glared at Shen Li unhappily.

"You're not going to Qingyang Village for the New Year?"

Guangping Bo's wife said directly: "We didn't count your share at all, you can go to your future in-laws' home for the New Year."

Guangping Bo nodded, "You should work harder and try to marry someone back next year."

Shen Li

Are people urging marriage so directly now?

Guangping Bo finished speaking and sighed deeply.

"I heard from your uncle Zhong that although the girl's skin is a little rough, her facial features are good. It's normal for the country to have rough skin. If you take good care of it for a year or two, it will be fair."

"That's right, brother. If a girl with fair skin and tender flesh like white tofu pops out in the village, we dare not take her!"

"You can't just forget about the girl because of the novelty. Finish your work and go back quickly. Be careful that the girl will forget you."

Shen Li

Before he even sat down to warm up, Shen Li was kicked out by the old lady.

The old lady told him to finish his work day and night and go wherever he should go!

I've never heard of a young man who is almost 20 years old and has the audacity to go to the hot spring with them.

If you have a wife, then go!

If you don't have a wife, are you worthy!

Before leaving, Shen Li was also admonished by the old lady.

"Before you marry the girl, we just need to know it ourselves. Don't go around talking nonsense, lest those people you offend can't do anything to you, and go and harm the girl!"

Shen Li

He is the leader of the Shadow after all, don't you know this!

Zhou Qing, who was missed by Shen Li's family, called Cheng Wu to go sell Spring Festival couplets together after breakfast the next morning.

"Uncle San, Qing Jie and I will go. It's almost the New Year, aren't you going to buy New Year goods?"

At the door of Shen Li's house, Cheng Wu scratched the back of his head and said with a smile.

Zhou Huailin didn't look at Cheng Wu, but just pulled the mule cart out of the yard.

"It's almost the New Year that I have to go. You have never sold anything before. Today, Qing and I will take you for a tour, and you can sell it yourself tomorrow."

Cheng Wu

looked at Zhou Huailin as if struck by lightning.

"On my own?"

Zhou Huailin led the mule cart out of the yard, patted the back of the big mule, and said with a smile: "We sold it a little late this year, we have to hurry up, I will go with Qing girl, and you will go with me, so that we can sell more."

Cheng Wu

You and Qing sister go together?

I go alone?

What should I sell then!

I want to go with Qing sister!

But how can he say this!

He is Zhou Qing's uncle!

Originally, Cheng Wu was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, but now he was just withered.

Clenching his fist, Cheng Wu silently decided to let his mother come to propose marriage tomorrow.

The winter wind was cold.

Sitting on the mule cart, Zhou Qing was shivering with cold even though she was wrapped in a thick quilt.

Fortunately, Shen Li bought her a hot water bottle when he went to the capital last time.

It was warm in her hand, so she didn't feel too uncomfortable.

I don't know how Shen Li's family dealt with it.

When we arrived at the village where the goods were sold, we jumped off the mule cart and moved around, and the coldness on our bodies was gone.

Zhou Huaishan's handwriting was domineering and powerful, and the Spring Festival couplets he wrote were auspicious and elegant.

If there are scholars in the family, they are willing to buy some elegant ones.

If there are no scholars in the family, they will choose those that are easy to understand.

"I thought that since it was already this late and no one was around, I thought you would not come. Fortunately, I waited for one more day, otherwise I would have gone to the town to buy it!"

"The Zhao family bought it in the town the day before yesterday, and it was five cents more expensive than this! The calligraphy was not as good as this."

"Little brother, give me a big pair and a small pair. The big one is for the street door and the small one is for the house door. Can you give me a cheaper price for two pairs?"

In front of the mule cart, many people gathered inside and outside.

This was the first time Chengwu did this kind of business, and he was a little flustered.

An old lady who had bought the Feng character from Zhou Qing was smiling and picking spring couplets in the crowd, and talked to Zhou Qing.

"Girl, are you married?"

Zhou Qing was giving the old lady a pair of spring couplets she wanted, and was caught off guard by this question, and almost dropped the spring couplets in his hand to the ground.

"Auntie, you can tell that I'm a girl!"

Zhou Qing changed the subject with a twitch in the corner of his eye.

She went out to sell Spring Festival couplets, wearing Zhou Huaishan's old clothes, dressed like a young man.

The old lady took Zhou Qing's hand and patted it, "Tell me, are you married? I have a good family, I think you are a good girl."

Cheng Wu listened with his ears erect, turned his head and looked at Zhou Qing nervously.

Zhou Qing smiled awkwardly and pulled his hand out of the old lady's hand.

"Don't joke with me, okay, if you want these two pairs of Spring Festival couplets, I will give you two free blessing characters."

The old lady smiled and accepted it, but accepting it did not mean that the old lady would be quiet.

"No, girl, I'm serious, I really have a good one in my hand, five big tiled houses at home, and the boy also passed this year's Tongsheng exam"
