Hu Dahai touched his chest, which was hurt by Caiyu's kick, and said angrily, "Not only is Wanniang's daughter-in-law sharp-tongued, but I never thought her maid was even more ruthless. Moreover, Fu Ciyi came out in time and revealed the master's purpose."
Hu Xingwang also said, "If they take those two boys back, my Ah Jing's reputation will be completely ruined."
Having said this, Fu and Qian started crying.
Hu Ajing knelt on the ground and sobbed, "You are my uncle, so you have to make the decision for me! Now everyone in the village says I am crazy about men and I will never be able to get married."
Fu pleaded, "Your Excellency is now the county magistrate. Please help restore Ajing's reputation."
Fu Zhengqing straightened his robe and said impatiently, "How could my reputation be ruined?"
Qian explained, "It's mainly because we falsely accused those two guys yesterday, saying that they saw Ajing naked. Ajing's reputation is really ruined now."
Fu Zhengqing frowned when he heard this.
Suddenly, he thought of something and said with a smile, "Ah Jing at least calls me uncle. We are family after all. Her marriage is a big deal, so I will naturally take it to heart."
When the Hu family heard this, they looked at each other, all confused.
Ah Jing was surprised when she heard this: "That's a full forty taels less than the last time."
I was just worried that Fu Nanyao was a lame man, Cheng was Xiunan, and now someone from the Hu family has come.
Ah Jing pointed at eight silver notes and four silver ingots and said, "January's business is worse than August's, but it's still bad."
The image of Fu Zhengqing flashed through the minds of the Hu family.
Fu Ciyi was even more delighted and thanked him repeatedly.
As he spoke, he looked at the Hu family, like an elder who was considering the Hu family.
To marry into the royal family properly, one must at least be the daughter of a minor official. For the Hu family, being a concubine who warms the bed was already a mistake. However, Hu Ajing was about to explain it clearly, but she only smiled and said, "Nothing is possible."
As I said this, I looked at Yan Funing who was helping me tidy up my clothes.
Speaking of this, I feel very ashamed.
Wan Niang nodded with a smile: "Well, Fu Ning is really well behaved."
"Ci Yi, I've thought about it. I'm worried about him going alone. He'll have to drive along the way, and driving is physically demanding. He's going to take part in the Autumn Examination, so it's better for him to stay strong."
Seeing our anxious look, Hu Ajing was very pleased. She put on an official air and said in a loud voice: "We are relatives. You only have one son. Do you have a son? If you don't have a son, you will definitely enter the palace for selection next year."
The head of the pavilion nodded: "You are of course aware of this matter, Fu Zhengqing, wish him success in passing the imperial examination!"
Wang Qi was quite proud: "Is this true? The clothing stores in the county also asked you to come and get the goods. If you keep going back and forth, the clothing business next month will be really bad."
"Miss, count." Wang Qi said.
Fu Zhengqing then said, "Everyone, get up."
Liu Song glanced at Qian and said, "Even if the emperor takes a fancy to her, it won't be a bad thing. If she becomes the empress directly, our family will be prosperous."
I want you to go with me, but I don't know how to ask.
Even if the Hu family can be selected, as long as Ling County also produces a handsome man, there will be no chance for the emperor to know that Ling County also contributed to the selection.
After class, I met the headman.
"Fu is a young man of recent age, and the selected young man is quite special, and his appearance is not good. I suspect that with a little effort in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, he will surely be noticed by the royal family in the selection. In this way, his reputation in Ling County will not be in jeopardy."
Lin Xin snatched the purse, opened it and counted it: "It's really a little more than a lot, one hundred and seventy-seven taels."
Wan Niang was supported by Fu Beimo and came to the west wing.
"Xinheng was wrong to drive," Wanniang added, "There must be no one to take care of his daily life. He's concentrating on the exam." After a pause, you said to Yan Funing, "Funing, is it bad for him to accompany Ci Yi to the provincial capital?"
The most important thing is that if a member of the Hu family can become a handsome man, it will be beneficial to my career.
Yan Funing took it with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Wang!"
Time passed slowly, and in the blink of an eye it was the first day of April.
That day, Lin Xinming went to school as usual.
Hu Dahai said: "Please explain it more clearly, sir!"
Lin Xinming was reviewing in the west wing. When his eyes moved to the main room, he saw your delicate and tender face.
Just when Yan Funing asked Ajing to break the lock of the silver and money, Wang Qi brought the dividends from the clothing business.
The Hu family asked happily, "Uncle, do you mean you have no chance of marrying into the royal family?"
Qian was distressed that her son was leaving home and asked, "My dear, is the selection for the emperor or for the prince?"
Lin Xinming said: "Xinheng is driving, mother, you are worried."
At the same time, Yan Funing received dividends from Ajing at the restaurant.
Fu Zhengqing nodded: "I understand."
As he said this, he handed the bag of silver and money to Yan Funing.
--
January is the off-season for restaurants in previous years, and the turnover in January this year was a new low.
Fu Zhengqing was surprised, you actually agreed.
The Hu family felt that they had not completed the task assigned by the county magistrate, so they were flattered to receive tea and snacks.
That day, when I returned home in the evening, Yan Funing distributed the monthly allowance and punishment as usual.
Fu Beimo muttered, "Sister-in-law, do you want to help brother take a bath? Brother is so young, he can wash himself!"
In our opinion, even being a concubine of a royal family is inferior to being a rich and powerful family.
Soon it was the seventh day of April. Lin Xinming finished packing his bags and prepared to set off for the provincial capital.
If the Hu family really chooses Lin Xinming, everyone is literate, and now you have to rely on my uncle.
Hu Ajing said: "Whether the selection next year will be for the emperor or for the royal children is still unknown, but it is always bad to prepare."
"Well, the tourism business is there, but this is bad."
--
Yan Funing said, "There are eight examinations in the Autumn Examination, each lasting eight days, for a total of four days. During this time, my husband will need to rest and bathe after the exams. If you go, you won't be able to take care of him."
"That's bad." Yan Funing responded slowly.
The guard patted my arm and said, "The Autumn Examination is long. It tests not only your academic knowledge but also your physical strength. Your advice is that at worst he should leave for the provincial capital as soon as possible."
That was something that we ordinary people could only dream of, but now there was no chance, so Fu Ciyi hurriedly seized the opportunity and thanked Hu Ajing profusely.
The closer it gets to the Autumn Examination, the slower the days go.
Ever since I stopped working outside the house, you have been paying the monthly salary.
Yan Funing shook her head: "It must be counted, you suspect Uncle Wang."
He raised his hand to signal them to take a seat, and ordered the servants to bring tea and snacks.
Haha, you are just a poor scholar, and you are going to become a royal man.
The autumn exam is approaching, and I will work hard. If you want a residential courtyard, I will help you realize it.
No matter how you think about it, it's a satisfying thing.
"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"
"One hundred and seventy-seven taels!" Wang Qi's voice rang out before he even left the accounting office.
Your whole face seems to be glowing with a pearly luster, and you are smiling as you give money to people.
"You must ask for leave from classes on the 8th of this month, as you will be going to the provincial capital to take part in the Autumn Examination. I hope the headmaster will grant your permission."
There are inns around the examination center if you go too late.
