Chapter 151 This is what he wants
Xia finally felt relieved: "Are you hungry? Let me cook you something to fill your stomach?"
"No need, sister-in-law, you go and rest. I'll go to bed early too. I'm exhausted today." She was exhausted, both mentally and physically. Chen Heng watched her sister-in-law leave the house, and then walked towards her own room.
In the next few days, Chen Heng went out early and came back early. Apart from that, she never wandered around. Apart from going to and from there, she just chatted with Aunt Feng.
From time to time, a few old maids from Prince Ning's Mansion would come to sit with Aunt Feng when they had nothing to do. After a while, everyone became familiar with each other.
People talked about Liu Zhiyue from time to time, saying that the young lady practiced music, chess, calligraphy and painting hard every day. She had never practiced so hard before, but after her body was injured, her comprehension was much worse than before.
Chen Heng listened quietly. Perhaps Yuan Qi had no musical talent. From what she could remember, except for her slightly better needlework, she was just average at everything else. The zither represents the heart, and the most important thing is the meaning. People without musical talent really couldn't do that, not even she herself.
I can sing, and my five tones are pretty good, but I just can't express the mood of the song.
As for calligraphy and painting, Yuan and she were not such patient people.
"Although it's not outstanding, it's not embarrassing either." The old nanny said, "With such a noble title, I'm afraid it will have to be given to someone else. Nanny Feng, what do you think?"
County official? Chen Heng felt that if one's virtue was unworthy of the position, it would be better not to seal the county official, otherwise he would be criticized after he was released. Using a backdoor was another matter.
Every four or five days, Nanny Feng would go to Prince Ning's mansion to teach the daughter of the first wife. The daughter was very hardworking, but for some reason, she couldn't understand many things. It wasn't like this before: "I'm worried now that the Si family will come to propose marriage in a few days. I heard that the auspicious time has been chosen. I hope nothing goes wrong when the time comes."
"yes."
"Miss Zhiyue is getting married?" Chen Heng tried not to look too shocked.
"The plan was made two years ago, and both families were interested. But the young lady and the young master of the Si family were still young. Now they are 17 years old, and adults." Nanny Feng said with a smile, "It's time."
The Si family in Yuezhou? Liu Zhiyue was going to marry in Yuezhou? Yes, she was already seventeen. Chen Heng didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, but the surname Si was quite unique.
"The Si family is a large clan, and once a girl marries into the family, she'll be a clan member," said Madam Feng, still a little worried. "They'll be busy all day long."
The old maid smiled and said, "With us here, how can the young lady be wronged? The princess said that we old maids will accompany the young lady there, and will come back when the maids can handle it on their own."
It started to rain lightly on the day the examination ended.
The spring rain is continuous.
There was a huge crowd of people outside the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall again.
Chen Heng and Xia Shi were waiting at the outermost edge with umbrellas in hand, but there was really no room for people to squeeze in.
Xia was extremely nervous, as the fate of the Xie family depended on this exam.
As soon as the door opened and the candidates came out, everyone looked forward to it.
Just as Xia and Shen Heng were looking around, a servant from the Meng family came running over with an umbrella and said, "Madam Shen, you two should go first. Mr. Xie and my son have other things to do."
"Are they coming out?" Chen Heng asked. She didn't see anyone.
"They have come out from the side door and have left. Mr. Xie told you not to worry, everything is fine." The servant said and left.
Xia and Shen Heng looked at each other.
"It seems that Ajian has a good chance of making the list." Xia's voice choked with sobs. "That's great, that's great."
"Yes. Don't worry, sister-in-law." Chen Heng was also very happy. Two years had passed, no, it should be the third year. In the blink of an eye, she had been in Dacong for the third year, and Xie Jian had finally finished the imperial examination and embarked on a career in officialdom.
She also learned a lot of business experience in the Meng family shop and saved a lot of money.
Smell the scent of freedom.
