Chapter 524: Different clouds on the heads of three scholars
"Which cousins were Fubao just talking about?"
The others didn't know what was going on, and were a little confused. Everyone fell silent.
However, Grandma Yan was concerned about it. She believed that Fubao's supernatural power had appeared again during this period, but she didn't know which two cousins Fubao was talking about, so she asked more questions.
Chu Chu pointed at the two on the right opposite to her: "Cousin Yunying and Cousin Yunjing should go out again, it should be okay."
The children's words made everyone fall silent, especially the uncle and aunt, who seemed to be very disappointed. The lady mentioned only the big one in their eldest room, which meant that their eldest room was the big one. Is there no point in taking the exam again?
It is said that children can speak efficaciously before their Tianling Cap is closed. Although Chu Chu is no longer a baby, she is still a child, so they naturally thought of this.
Although I don’t really believe in such legends, everyone likes to hear good things, so I still felt a knot in my heart.
The eldest son of Dafang naturally has the greatest responsibility. For generations of merchants, what they lack most is a son who can do business. It may be that it is not money that can improve their status and lintel, but their status as an official. With money, it is even more important. I want to straighten my waist and behave as a human being.
After all, my son is approaching forty. Although he has been working tirelessly and is willing to continue studying hard, year after year, no matter how good his character is, it will be wiped out. The responsibility that the family has placed on his shoulders is too heavy. If He was afraid that he would not be able to bear the same blow again, so donating his official position was a last resort.
They also asked the Master specifically, and the Master said that it would not be a big deal for the eldest son to pass the exam.
Even if my brother-in-law traveled here a few years ago and devoted himself to tutoring for a period of time, he still shook his head at him. It was his fate to think so.
Is it true that their eldest brother has no destiny to be an official?
"What about my eldest cousin? Is there still a chance?" Grandma Yan simply asked Shangguan directly to save them from worrying.
"If dad doesn't study, doesn't he still have a chance? My eldest cousin is still a scholar! I think he is better than dad."
Chu Chu thought of her father in Taohua Village, and suddenly felt that the eldest cousin in front of her was elegant but also honest. No matter how she looked at it, she felt that his temperament was somewhat similar to that of her father.
Grandma Yan looked back at Zimo, and Zimo happened to look at her. They both nodded, and Zimo understood.
Zimo calmed down and then said: "What our young lady means is that since these two younger cousins have the ability, they should try their best to make a career on their own. The donated officials will definitely not be as solid as the ones they passed the examination for. The official family will not arrange for three people to join the official position at the same time just because you donate money and materials. The two of them are not too old, so it will be best to try again next year.
This time, the Shangguan family has spent so much money on disaster relief and fighting the epidemic. My eldest cousin still has a chance to become an official. Just wait for the good news. "
After listening to Zimo's words, the uncle looked at his in-laws who also nodded. Sure enough, his face turned from cloudy to clear. He naturally knew that Zimo had something to say to Prince Jue, and he also knew that Mr. Xiao and the Yan family There is some connection, otherwise I wouldn’t have taken such good care of the Shangguan family this time.
So even if Chu Chu's words are Tong Yan Wuji's, Zi Mo's words still have to be listened to. I'm sure Zi Mo's words are also the meaning of Prince Jue and the Twelve Princes!
Shangguan Zhi thought about this and then looked at his old wife. The two of them felt more at ease and sat up straighter.
I saw that the other two aunts still moved their mouths and wanted to speak, but they seemed a little scared and taboo.
Grandma Yan thought for a moment and said, "Have your second cousin and third cousin always been studying in the county school?"
This time everyone nodded in agreement and looked at Grandma Yan expectantly.
"When we get back to Xiangzhou County, we'll talk to Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao to see if we can get you into a better college. It's hard to tell if the teachers in the county school are not suitable for you.
And when the time comes, don’t ask anyone to recommend you. We have several in our family and just ask them to leave their spots to you. "
Regarding entering a better college, Grandma Yan thinks that based on their relationship with Mr. Xiao's family, he should still be able to help. I heard that the best college in Xiangzhou County is Qingshan College, and the knowledge of the students there cannot be learned in the county. However, the guidance of famous teachers is definitely different, otherwise who would bother to squeeze in there?
After hearing this, the three members of the Shangguan family were naturally very happy. They couldn't get into Qingshan Academy even if they wanted to donate money. If they could get in, it would be easy to get past the dozen or so people in front of them.
The three scholars also knelt down on the futon and kowtowed to Grandma Yan. Even Chu Chu was affected and couldn't hide away even if she wanted to.
When the banquet started, Grandma Yan specifically asked her uncle if he had carried the banquet to the government office. After receiving an affirmative answer, she felt even more relieved.
The Shangguan family was warm and everyone was happy. Naturally, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves so much that they did not dare to stay too long.
When she got home after dinner, Grandma Yan called Zimo over and asked Chu Chu. Chu Chu then told them both: "Second cousin and third cousin have a little pink on their heads, but they are just a little pinker than those of fourth uncle and uncle." My brother-in-law’s hair is much lighter.”
Grandma smiled and said: "If you have it, it will be done. If you have it, it will be done." As long as there is pink, it will be good.
Yan Yongning and his uncle's knowledge are considered to be very high, and it is impossible for anyone to compare them with them. But as long as they win the election, they will be able to work as an official. If someone helps them in the future, they will not be able to do anything. Too bad.
"Then the eldest cousin doesn't have pink on his head?" Zimo asked, feeling that if there was a bit of pink on his head, he should give it a try. His reputation as a donor would definitely not be as convincing as his real talent.
"It's not pink at all, but it's white without any impurities, and it's very beautiful." Chu Chu's words made them think that she must be hopeless in the exam, but if someone could help her, she would definitely have a smooth future.
"Then you have to talk to Brother Jue about this. He is a scholar after all. The white clouds show that he is a good person. He can always be a better official than the mayor, right?"
Zimo looked at the old lady and smiled without saying anything. Chu Chu also ran to wash up.
When Grandma Yan saw that Zimo didn't say anything, she murmured to herself: "Mr. Lan Chuan is too pedantic. With his reputation, he accepts a few more students with some official background. How can he pay so much?" Trouble? It only takes a matter of minutes for the scholar to become the mayor and bookkeeper!
It's not like he was asked to beg his grandfather to sue his grandma. It's reasonable and legal to donate a minor official. This is true for his in-laws. I feel wronged for Mrs. Li's marriage to him. "
When Zimo heard that Grandma Yan was complaining so much, he didn't dare to talk to her. He didn't dare to make irresponsible remarks about a great scholar like Mr. Lan Chuan, so he simply found an excuse and ran away.
Is Mr. Lan Chuan pedantic? Whether he helps or not is not something he can control, but he is looking forward to the next step of the three talents. He believes everything the young lady said, but his curiosity still exists. Only when it is confirmed in the end will he feel enlightened and in his heart Be practical.
