Chapter 258 Back to Hometown



Su Shien chatted with the gentlemen for a while, and could sense their admiration from their words and expressions.

When leaving the academy, Su Shien saw a person suddenly change direction. He looked closely and found that it was Zhou Ming who had been punished by Yu Ge'er.

No matter how incompetent Bai Jinyan was, he was still a juren, and Qin Ye was said to have found a way to enter the academy in the provincial capital.

Zhou Ming is the only one left of the original trio, and he is still the scholar who lived off his wife.

The present time is different from the past, his status is different, and his state of mind will also change accordingly. All he has to do is keep moving forward and leave all these people behind.

According to Han Zeyu's itinerary, they can stay in their hometown for eight or nine days.

Time is tight and the task is heavy. The next stop is Qingshan County Base Camp.

Because Han Zeyu traveled so quickly, the Su family had just received the good news from the county government when the person in question came back with his family to have a free meal at noon the next day.

Su Wanli was in tears, he was really excited this time.

Yesterday he received news that both of his sons passed the imperial examination and the eldest son was unexpectedly granted an official position.

His Su family had truly transformed its fortunes. From this family of merchants came an extremely distinguished editor of the Hanlin Academy. After his death, he could proudly say to his ancestors, "My son has brought honor to our family!"

Unlike Su Wanli who was too excited to sleep, Su Wangshi was too depressed to sleep.

It would be better if I just felt aggrieved, but the key point was that I was worried about Yunsong's situation in the capital.

In the past, she often treated the siblings harshly. Now that Su Shien has become a Hanlin editor, will he use his position to make things difficult for Yunsong?

At noon, the couple met in the main courtyard, both with huge dark circles under their eyes.

Su Wanli thought she was just missing her son, so he comforted her: "Don't worry, Shi En is also in the capital. An elder brother is like a father, he will definitely take good care of Yunsong."

Mrs. Su Wang said that she was not comforted, but became more worried.

As the saying goes, speak of the devil and he will appear.

The housekeeper came quickly and reported in a low voice: "Master, Madam, the eldest young master and the eldest young mistress have returned home."

Su Wanli was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses and was about to go to greet him in person, he saw that extremely disgusting figure.

"Master! Madam! We are back. Do you miss us particularly? But it doesn't matter whether you miss us or not. What matters is that we two think about you every day!"

Su Wanli had a forced smile on his face, while Su Wangshi gave him a sarcastic smile. "You're thinking about us? I'm afraid you're thinking about the money in our pockets."

After several confrontations, Su Wangshi had already recognized Han Zeyu's true nature, that he was profit-driven and greedy for money.

It is said that the person who knows you best is always your enemy.

Han Zeyu drafted a money-making plan overnight. They traveled thousands of miles back to their hometown, not to enjoy the scenery.

Of course, the behavior of scholars begging for money everywhere needs to be described more politely, that is, "paying visits".

The couple had decided not to cheat their own family members, nor their fellow villagers or ordinary people. They only picked the "fat sheep" to slaughter.

For example, the most stingy "fat sheep" in the county, the county magistrate, Mr. Tian.

Received an invitation from the Su family: to welcome the eldest son and also to celebrate the second son passing the imperial examination.

The county magistrate was filled with envy and jealousy. How did the other man have two sons? Each one was more promising than the other.

There was really smoke coming out of the Su family’s ancestral tomb.

Everyone who received the invitation felt uncomfortable. It is true that jealousy can completely change a person's character.

Mrs. Su Wang gritted her teeth and took over the important task, striving to make the banquet a grand occasion.

Han Zeyu felt sorry for her mother-in-law. In this day and age, if you broke your back teeth and there was no dental clinic to replace them, it would be so painful!

With a sigh, he was always too soft-hearted, too soft-hearted, and took all the problems on himself.

Mrs. Su Wang took the thick envelope and looked at the familiar handwriting on it. She knew it was written by her son and immediately couldn't wait to open it and take a look.

She noticed from the corner of her eye that Han Zeyu was like a wooden stake, refusing to leave, and she didn't feel comfortable reading the letter in front of him.

Han Zeyu stood up straight, brushed off the wrinkles on his clothes, stared into Su Wangshi's eyes, and said calmly: "Yunsong is a kind and good child."

After saying this, Han Zeyu left.

Mrs. Su Wang held the letter and stood there in a daze. It took her a long time before she opened the envelope and carefully read the letter written to her by Yunsong line by line.

In the letter, Su Yunsong said that everything was fine in the capital, and that he was being taken care of by his brother and sister-in-law, with whom he often had meals and stayed overnight. He had already started looking for a suitable courtyard, and would inform the exact address of his home once the house issue was settled.

Su Wangshi shed tears silently. The child had grown up and was no longer misled by her words. He had his own judgment and tried to change her mind between the lines.

Thinking of what Han Zeyu said just now, Yunsong is a good child, filial, polite, hardworking and motivated, she should be content.

While the Su family was preparing for the banquet, Han Zeyu and his wife went to visit Grandma Han and his uncle's family.

My eldest niece is lively and cute, and her personality and appearance are more like Wang Qin.

When Han Zeyu heard that Dingxiang was also pregnant, he was happy for them. His honest second cousin was finally going to be a father.

Talking about this topic, Wang Qin thought of a piece of gossip that Yu Ge'er would definitely be interested in, which was that Zhao Min'er was engaged, and Zhao Yan was going to be a father.

Han Zeyu was stunned, thinking, hasn't he been planning to be a father for a long time?

Then he realized that his eldest cousin's wife didn't know about Zhao Yan and Qian Ning, so what she meant was that Miss Sun was pregnant.

After dinner, Han Zeyu was still thinking about what had just happened.

Su Shien asked him why he was sighing?

Han Zeyu said regretfully, "I was thinking of using my magic power to send Sun Manqi an opportunity! What a pity, the hero has no place to use his skills."

Su Shien was speechless. You are addicted to pretending to be the Goddess of Fertility. Just be quiet for a while!

Qian Ning's child is already three years old, and Sun Manqi hasn't even given birth yet! There's no telling when Zhao Yan's little misdeeds will be exposed.

When Yu Ge'er said he wanted to take Su Shi'en to the mountains to burn incense for his ancestors, the Han family was shocked. Isn't this inappropriate? Will they agree?

Su Shien thought it was no problem. He was half a member of the Han family. If Yu Ge'er wanted to go, he would definitely accompany her.

Han Zeyu dared to say that he was definitely a filial son and a good grandson, but if you looked around Yunshan Village, he would be the most active one when it came to tomb sweeping.

He was nearly struck by lightning two days ago, and he had to ask the Han family's ancestors to bless him.
