The control group of the ancient heroine

There is another reason why the Qin Mansion's banquet was held on the 꿷 day. On the 꿷 day, all government offices have a holiday and officials take a break.

At noon, the people invited by the Qin Mansion came one after another, but the best ones were Du Xingran and his wife, and their daughter Du Pianpian.

The ones who were waiting for the guests at the door were Qin Fang and his wife and son. Yang Haiyan was a high-class and genuine wife. Normally, she didn’t have to come out to greet the guests on the first day, but among the family members who came on the first day, there was Cheng En. People from the Hou Mansion, Shen Lixian and his wife are of high rank. Shen Lixian is the son of Marquis Chengen, who is also a 괗pin, and his wife, Mrs. 녡, is a 괗pin wife, and only Yang Haiyan came to pick her up.

Du Xingran said: "Brother Qin, sister, we are here to disturb you."

Mrs. Qu also said: "꿷꿂 is here to chat."

Yang Haiyan said: "Sister-in-law, you're welcome. Please sit inside first. I'll come later."

Mrs. Qu said: "We are all our own people, you don't need to go out of your way to entertain us."

Then, the mother-in-law took Qu's mother and daughter to the hall where they received the female family members.

The first household to come was Shen Lixian and his wife, with their children.

"General Qin." Shen Lixian was quite happy to see Qin Fang, "Since I came to Yunxiang County, I have missed my wife very much. Mrs. Bingyun, this is my wife Qian. Madam, this is Mrs. Bingyun."

Qin Fang: "Qin has seen Mr. Zi, please come inside."

Yang Haiyan: "I have met Mrs. 녡zi, and everyone said she is gentle and virtuous. I finally got to meet her."

Qian: "Mrs. Bingyun is better than seeing her. I've been waiting since I received her message."

The two greeted each other and complimented each other.

Next to Yang Haiyan, Qin Linyang stared curiously at the little boy and girl next to Qian. When he saw the little boy and the little girl looking at him, he called out sweetly: "Little brother, little sister."

The boys were 꿷, 궝, and the little girls, 꾉, were named Shen Daimo and Shen Lingtu. When they saw such cute little brothers, they were quite fond of them: "Hello, little brother."

The children greeted them first, which made people smile. Yang Haiyan said: "Lin Yang, can you take your little brother to play in your yard?"

Qin Linyang naturally responded: "Little brother, I have many, many toys."

Qian also said to her son: "Taimo, you can follow your little brother and take care of him. "

Shen Daimo: "Yes, mother."

Qin Linyang took Shen Daimo to his yard, followed by Wu Qiyuan and his wife, but he was not afraid. Yang Haiyan received the Qian family in person. The female family members who came from heaven were the only ones who needed to be received by the Qian family in person.

Because it was a luncheon, the guests all arrived at noon. Not long after Shen Lixian and his wife arrived, other guests also arrived one after another, including Sister Du’s family, Sister Du’s family, Wei Ting Husband and wife, Yu Nian's family, Commander Zhong, the commander of the suburbs of Beijing, and his family, as well as two officials from the suburbs of Beijing who had discussed with Qin Fang.

The banquet was just a meal, there were no extravagant programs, so everyone chatted for a while before the meal, chatted for a while after the meal, and then dispersed after having lunch as a normal friend.

Qin Fang took his wife and son to see him off at the door. Qin Linyang met the new little brother and waved to them reluctantly, but fortunately, there were several little brothers in the yard. There are still people to play with.

After everyone was sent away, Yang Haiyan sighed, Beijing is really not a place where people are treated, and just inviting people to a meal like this is tiring.

"Next time if you invite someone to dinner, go to a tavern or inn to save yourself the trouble at home." Yang Haiyan said to Qin Fang.

"Okay." Qin Fang couldn't bear to make his wife too tired. "In the future, there won't be any important events at home. For example, if it's a wedding or something like that, it's enough for us to celebrate as a family."

"Okay." Yang Haiyan couldn't ask for more.

Family members also have their own thoughts on the way back.

Qian: "This Madam Bingyun is quite interesting. It's not obvious that she was born as a maid."

Shen Lixian said: "Indeed, if you didn't know where you were from, you would think you were from the 녡 family."

Qian didn't like it at all: "But think about it, the person who was conferred by the emperor as the genuine Mrs. Bingyun is naturally not regarded as an ordinary person. If she doesn't come, wouldn't she be disrespectful of the emperor's canonization? If so? Ordinary people wouldn’t have such a big deal. By the way, General Qin’s appointment has been dismissed?”

Shen Lixian said: "I don't know, I've never noticed this. But I'm Du Ke's student, so I think it's not bad. With Du Ke here, I started to fall behind, and I'm not good at it." It's just that. ‌I know that Qin Fang’s position will not be bad, otherwise why would he be transferred back to the capital? Genuine products are the lowest. "Madam, go out with Mrs. Bingyun more in the future. Behind the Qin family is the Du family. If the prince gets the support of the Du family, he will be even more powerful for his future."

Qian said: "Don't worry, husband, I know." As Shen Lixian's wife, she naturally knows the true identity of the prince. She is the son of the former sister-in-law and the prince's legitimate son. There will inevitably be a battle between the Shen family and the Ren family, and if the prince succeeds to the throne, the Shen family will still be glorious for decades, which will also be good for his son. After all, if his biological cousin was the emperor, who would dare to bully him?

At the same time, in the carriage of the Wei family, Wei Ting's wife, Zhong, was also talking to Wei Ting. Like Qian, she came to the Qin Mansion every day and was particularly curious about this Lady Bingyun. After all, from a maid to a regular lady, she has walked a path that no woman in Qi State has ever walked, and it has only been a few years? It is really surprising. In addition, in the capital, the third rank is a hurdle. Among the officials in the capital, how many have reached the first rank? And those who rely on their husbands to get the first rank imperial edict are not different from Yang Haiyan. Yang Haiyan's imperial edict is a title, although it cannot be passed on to children. But as long as she does not commit a crime, this title will always follow her until she dies. As for those ladies who were granted imperial titles by their husbands, if their husbands died, their imperial titles would be gone, and if their husbands retired, their imperial titles would also be gone, such as .

That’s why it is said that Yang Haiyan’s imperial title is a title, which is different from ordinary imperial titles.

Zhong: “Husband, can you go out and spend more time with the Qin family?”

Wei Ting felt a headache when he thought that his father had already stood on the side of the Ren family, but he would not tell his wife about this matter. If his wife accidentally let it slip, it would be bad if it got out and reached the ears of the emperor. He said, "Just follow the normal relationship. The Wei family is independent, so you don't need to make friends with them."

Mrs. Zhong said, "Then I understand."

Qin Fang's appointment has not come down yet, but the family letter from Baili Village has arrived. The family letter was brought by Tao Shan, which means Tao Shan has returned to Beijing.

Tao Shan sent Grandpa Qin and Grandma Qin to Baili Village, and then rushed back to the capital without stopping.

"Hello, General. The old man and the old lady have been safely sent to Baili Village. I came back this time and brought back the family letter written by the third master." Tao Shan took out the letter written by Qin Shou from his arms.

Qin Fang was not in a hurry to read the letter, but asked about the situation of Tao Shan's hometown. After learning that everything was fine at home, he said, "You go and rest. You have a holiday these days. You can come to me after I take office."

Tao Shan said, "Yes."

After Tao Shan left, Qin Fang read the family letter. The family letter was written by Qin Shoubo, but the tone of the elders in the family should be that Qin's father and mother asked Qin Shoubo to write it.

First of all, the letter talked about Qin Shoubo's county exam in February of that year. Unfortunately, Qin Shoubo failed the first county exam. He was too nervous and forgot everything when he took the exam.

Qin Shoubo is not very talented, but he is definitely a very hard-working person. Moreover, the county exam tests basic knowledge. Generally speaking, as long as you remember everything the teacher taught, there is no problem in passing the basic knowledge. However, Qin Shoubo was nervous when he took the county exam, and he would remember that he did not pass last year. For Yang Haiyan, this is called pre-exam phobia.

In addition, another thing was mentioned, that is, Qin Shoubo was engaged. Qin Shouye was sixteen years old. Because of the "imperial marriage" incident, Qin Shouye's father came to preside over the marriage when he got married, so Qin Fang asked Qin's father to let him arrange a marriage for Qin Shouye. He didn't ask for wealth and honor, but only asked Qin Shouye to marry a girl he liked and with good character.

This letter mentioned this matter. The girl was the daughter of Qin Shouye's teacher, and she had studied and knew how to write.

Qin Fang didn't worry about the girl's character. After all, it was decided by Qin's father and mother, so he didn't need to worry about the problem of his brother's wife.

In addition, it also mentioned that Qin Shouye's mother's son would be born in September next year. The reason for this decision is that Qin Shou will take the county exam next year. If he passes, he will have more face when he comes to visit his parents, which will double his happiness. If he fails, Qin Shou will be less sad in half a year. Third, this decision is good.

Qin Fang is relatively calm about his brother's failure to pass the county exam. After all, his brother is only sixteen years old. There are not many sixteen-year-old scholars in the whole country.

Finally, his family asked him if he could go home when Qin Shou comes to visit his parents in September next year.

Qin Fang thought about it and began to write a letter. The letter first comforted Qin Shou and asked him to think more. There are so many officials in the court, and few of them can take the exam for scholars at his age. I did say that I can't spare the time for next September, but after Qin Shou's mother passes away, I can bring my brother and sister-in-law to Beijing to live for a while.

After replying the letter, I went to find Yang Haiyan: "Wife, this is my letter back home. Do you think there is anything else to say?"

Yang Haiyan turned a blank look at me: "The letter is fine, but at least we are in Beijing now. The specialties of Beijing, the clothing styles and hair accessories suitable for ladies, must be brought back."

Qin Fang: "..."

Yang Haiyan said with interest: "Take it back and let grandma and mother show off to the neighbors." Old ladies in the countryside like to do this kind of thing.
