Jiang Shu's mood suddenly became much better. Ever since his niece Zhiyu came to live with him, he couldn't help but go and see the joke.
At the beginning, her mother, as the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family, married into the Wang family and became a noble lady, living a very glorious life. However, she could only marry a useless man, who had to rely on her to beg for help from the Jiang family all day long.
Now that the situation has changed, she can also give her niece some lectures as an elder.
As soon as Tu Yufan returned home, he saw a slightly plump woman sitting next to his wife. She said, "Since you are not feeling well, you should let your maid serve your husband. If he cheats on you, it will be too late for you to regret it."
Tu Yufan: Who do you think he is?
Tu Yufan came over and said, "Although you are Pingping's elder, you should stop talking nonsense. I will not take a concubine. She is the only one in my life."
Jiang Shu was a little displeased: "Oh, nowadays, all the officials in the capital have concubines."
Tu Yufan said, "Since you like them so much, you can take a few to your husband so that he can have some of them too. But you have to get their approval before you can do that."
Jiang Shu's face changed: "I'm doing this for you guys. If you don't appreciate it, forget it."
"Then I won't keep you here today. Come on, show us around!"
"you!"
Wang Lingping was too shy to say anything, but Tu Yufan was not so polite and directly asked his servants to ask Jiang Shu to leave.
"Next time you see her coming over here, keep the door closed tightly."
Tu Yufan warned him.
Wang Lingping glanced at Tu Yufan without much anger on her face.
......
"Congratulations to Zhao Yufan Gu for winning the first prize!!"
Suddenly there was a sound of gongs and drums outside, and Tu Yufan remembered that it was the day of the announcement of the results. However, he did not wait and came back directly. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to pass the exam.
I just didn't expect that he would be the top scorer. After all, the test results favored the examiner, so the difference in ranking was understandable. Getting the first place this time was a pleasant surprise.
"Congratulations, husband."
Wang Lingping seemed even happier than Tu Yufan. Her face was flushed with excitement and her lips were raised and never lowered.
Tu Yufan became a juren, and the next step was to wait for the imperial examination. He sighed softly, looking at Wang Lingping's admiring eyes, and he really didn't want to say that he wanted to live off her.
However, the news still reached the Zhao Mansion. After hearing the news, Mrs. Zhao felt a little unhappy. Before, when she was at the Zhao Mansion, the invited teacher had said that Tu Yufan was still a little short of the mark in the next provincial examination, but he finally got the first place.
Zhao Tang was very pleased when he heard the news, but he also felt a little regretful. If this son was his biological son, his third son would not be able to study as well as the illegitimate son.
"Zhu'er passed the examination and became a scholar, but it's a pity that Luo'er failed this time."
Mrs. Zhao looked a little unhappy. How could her legitimate son be outdone by a bastard? She decided to personally supervise her son's studies in the future.
After that, Zhao Shengluo was called up before dawn to read books all day long. He was a playful person and could not sit still. After a few days, his face turned pale and he was in great pain.
As for Ding Yan, Zhao Shengluo had long been tired of her. His main wife was about to take him in, so he had long since relegated her to the backyard. The servants in the backyard liked to flatter the weak and Ding Yan's child was taken to Madam Zhao's lap. Her life now was even worse than when she was a maid.
