Chapter 323
In the summer night, the sky is full of stars, and the stars are shining brightly in the dark night. There are chirping insects outside the window, and low voices come from the room. The people inside are still talking, not asleep.
The two children on the small bed were both asleep, and Xiao Lele, who had her belly spread out and her legs spread apart, was domineering in her sleeping position, occupying most of the bed, and the small quilt covering her body was kicked off by him.Little Bao'er curled up into a ball, sleeping sweetly in a corner, her sleeping face was peaceful and beautiful.
The two children in the room are asleep, and the two people on the big bed are talking together, with a relaxed voice. This is the most relaxing moment of the day for them, and it belongs to their time. The children are all asleep. , no one will disturb them, only at this time they can have a good talk and discuss something.
"Wan Feng, what do you think?" Cao Xiangnan held Wan Feng's waist with one hand, stroking the soft place with his hands back and forth, and the two of them leaned together in a kissing position, and he talked to Wan Feng Reminds me of buying a house in town.
This is the person he has spent his whole life with, and he has to discuss with this person about big and small matters.
"If we find a suitable house, let's settle it first." Even if the house is settled now, they are not in a hurry to live in it. They can move there when they want to live in the future. Cao Xiangnan didn't plan to buy the house right away. Hastily moved over.
Living in Cao's Village, there are too many complicated things.
"Okay, Fulang, you decide, I'll listen to you." Qi Wanfeng smiled, he also understood why Fulang wanted to move to the town, and he didn't say anything.
For him, as long as his husband and children are there, he is home, no matter where he goes.If he moved to live in the town, Fulang would be able to go home without having to make another trip from the town to the village when he came back from Nanyang. Wouldn't that be better?
The voices in the room stopped at some point, and the two people on the bed leaned against each other and fell asleep.The bright moon hanging high in the sky exudes a clear light, and the faint moonlight hits the ground, coated with a layer of silver light.
As the night darkened, the chirping of insects in the grass became more and more lively.
"Knock knock one by one" someone knocked on the door of the small courtyard, and the people in the courtyard heard the knock on the door outside, and went to open the door. Zhao Ama was frightened when she saw that it was the elder brother who came knocking on the door early in the morning. With a jump, he asked, "Why did the elder brother come to knock on the door so early, but what's the matter?"
"Is this the home of Cao Wenxuan and Cao Xiucai?" the official outside the door asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes..." Zhao Ama subconsciously responded when the official sent the elder brother to mention their second young master's name.Suddenly Zhao Ahma paused, feeling something was wrong, she was taken aback for a moment, then came back to her senses, and asked with wide eyes, "Cao Xiucai?"
Scholar?
Their second young master?Is it a scholar?It's not what he thought it was!
"This is Cao Xiucai's home, isn't it? That's right. The younger one was ordered to deliver the letter. Mr. Cao Wenxuan Cao was selected as a scholar. The document was only delivered yesterday. I will hurry to give it to you this morning. Send it here." The paperwork was sent down layer by layer to the place, and it was only delivered to their yamen yesterday, and the yamen servants in the yamen sent letters to the Cao family village early in the morning.
There is only one scholar in Caojia Village in these ten miles and eight towns. This messenger is a fat man.
"Master...Master..." Zhao Amo turned her head and shouted, "Master, madam, the second young master has become a scholar."
The official messenger who came to deliver the letter took the silver reward from the old man and left happily. This is a full one or two taels of silver, which is a good profit.
Lizheng was still standing at the door, speechless with excitement, holding the hand of his wife, who had been selected as a scholar.Li Zheng said incoherently, "Alan, I have won a scholar in Wenxuan, I, am I dreaming?"
"Master, of course you are not dreaming. Our Xuan'er has won the scholar." Wang Lan had a gentle smile on his face, and he was not surprised that his son would pass the scholar exam.For him, it is inevitable that his son will win the show.
Liu Xiu, who was at the side, hugged the child, laughed happily and shed tears, and said to the child, "Xiao Fu'er, your father has passed the examination of scholar."
Fu Lang went thousands of miles away to study, and one of his elder brothers was at home with his child. All he hoped for a year was that Fu Lang could come home to see him and the child.Now that Fu Lang has passed the examination as a scholar, and will be promising in the future, he is both happy and scared, and can only hold the child in his arms tightly.
When Xiao Fu'er heard Ah Mu talking about Dad, she followed Ah Mu and shouted, "Daddy, Dad, scholar..."
"Little Fu'er is so smart, your father has been admitted to the scholar." Li Zheng laughed loudly, and the loud voice could be heard even by the people nearby.
Caojia Village has produced a scholar!For a while, the whole Caojia Village was boiling.
This is the first scholar from their Caojia Village in a hundred years. The elders in the village rushed to Lizheng's house as soon as they got the news. It is a big deal for their Caojia Village to have a scholar.
This is the appearance of the ancestors, and it must be the appearance of the ancestors. Bless them, Caojia Village will produce talents in large numbers from generation to generation.
"Hurry up and ask people to prepare the six ceremonies. We want to open a family to worship our ancestors, and we must tell our ancestors about this important event. Our Cao family village has a scholar. Let the masters and ancestors of our Cao family know that they will be happy, bless you." Our Caojia Village has a large number of talented people, and among those who are selected as the top scholar, there will be a top scholar."
"If so, we need to tell our ancestors about such a big news."
Everyone was discussing the matter of establishing a clan to worship ancestors in full swing. Li Zheng was in the room happily, and he did not object to the elders in the clan talking about establishing a clan to worship ancestors. Such a big matter should be told to Lie Ancestor Liezong, Cao Gaozhi is finally not ashamed of his ancestors Liezong, he can go down to see his ancestors Liezong after death.
In the whole Cao's Village, everyone was talking about the fact that the second boy of the Lizheng family was selected as a scholar, and everyone had happy smiles on their faces, as if they were honored, as if this was their family who had won a scholar. Everyone is happy about it.
Grandpa Sun of the Sun family heard that Lizheng's second son had passed the examination of scholar, and he sat in the first place with no expression on his face. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, and he said after a while, "This is a good thing."
He waved his hand, and said to Sun who was standing in front of him, "Go, give your Seventh Uncle a backup present."
"Yes, Grandpa, I'll go right away." Sun Yanmiao replied.
Seeing his grandson gone, the old man Sun who was sitting there sighed. It's a pity for the descendants of their Sun clan. Their Sun clan hides from the world here.
They Caojia Village has a scholar, and everyone in the village who knows has prepared gifts to send to Lizheng's house. The things are not expensive, but they are a kindness after all.Today, every household in Caojia Village has a little extra money in their hands, and even a gift money can be sold. In a short time, the threshold of the Zhengjia will be broken by the people in the village.
"No, no, no, no, no, our second young master has been selected as a scholar, and you are all very happy to come to congratulate our master and wife. This is absolutely unavoidable." Zhao Ahmo offered Madam's order is here to let the person who gave the gift take the gift back, this gift is absolutely unacceptable.
"Take it, take it, just a little thing."
"Yeah, there are mine and mine, Ah Zhao, if you don't accept it, you're looking down on me."
The person who gave the gift didn't give anyone a chance to refuse, so he stuffed the gift into Amo Zhao's hand, said a few good words, then turned around and walked away with great strides.Zhao Ah could not catch up with the person who brought the things after chasing after him. Seeing the gifts gradually piled up in the room, Zhao Ah had a headache.
There was a talented man in the Cao family village, and the people in the village rushed to tell the news, and every family knew about the big happy event.
In the Cao family compound, Chen Li, who was going back outside, smiled and told his grandmother about it, "Our Cao family village has a scholar, and everyone went to Lizheng to congratulate him." Chen Li said He even asked his husband if he wanted to send a gift to Lizheng's house too, since everyone else has given it, shouldn't they also send it?
Boss Cao is not good at handling these things, so he just said, "You can figure it out, if you want to send it, send it to you."
Since other people's homes have sent them, they have no choice but to give them away. This is what Cao Fugui meant.
When Chen Li said this, she also meant to tell his aunt. Didn't his aunt talk about his fifth uncle being the number one scholar in the examination every day?Ever since he stepped into this door, his mother has always said that their fifth uncle is destined to study and become an official. Over the years, some money in the family has been put into their mother's pocket, and then it was given to his fifth uncle.
For so many years, the family sat at the same table to eat. As long as his fifth uncle was at home, any meat on the table would be left by his mother to his fifth uncle.For so many years, they have tried their best to support Cao Laowu. How can Chen Li not feel resentful in her heart!
Now there is a scholar in their Cao family village, but this scholar has nothing to do with their fifth uncle, but Cao Wenxuan, the second boy of Lizheng's family, was selected as a scholar.
"Why did Cao Wenxuan get selected as a scholar, not my fifth son? What about my fifth son, did my fifth son pass the exam as a scholar?" Chen Zhu asked in disbelief, "Did the official make a mistake? You made our Gao Jin's name into Wenxuan?"
"Ah, how can the official make a mistake?" Chen Li looked at him, "Aren't you joking?" The smile on the corner of her mouth was full of sarcasm.
Just think about all the good things in the family for so many years that his aunt gave him to his fifth uncle. They have supported his fifth uncle for so many years, because their fifth uncle has studied in this family, and his children have no chance to study. .Until now, when they separated, he and his husband went to work, and only then did the children in the family go to the academy to study.
"Master, you, you, go to the yamen and ask, is our Wu'er also selected as a scholar? The fortune teller approved our Wu'er's fate back then, and our Wu'er will definitely be the number one scholar in the examination." Chen Zhu paired He fixed his eyes on the head of the family, and didn't believe that everyone else was awarded the scholar, but his son didn't.
"Okay, okay, I'll go and ask tomorrow." Cao Ashan was also in disbelief, and both of them thought that they should be among the five children who were selected as scholars.
Hearing this, Chen Li glanced at the two elders, gave them a stingy look, turned around and left, thinking that the whole family was sick!How did he live with such a family for so many years?This was the first time Chen Li had a strong thought that he must move out of this place.
