Xia Yue hesitated for a moment and said that she wanted to discuss it with the child's father, so Xia Yang went back first.
Although she has the final say at home now, she still needs to discuss such a big thing with her family.
Study harder in the summer.
In April this year, he passed the examination for the title of scholar, and he is only less than fifteen years old now.
The Juren examination will be held in July or August next year.
He couldn't wait to try it.
Ever since Xia Tian passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, more and more people have come to propose marriage to Xia Chen.
However, Xia Yang rejected them all. He was thinking of moving to Beijing in the future, so he didn't want Xia Chen to marry too far away.
It would be best if you could marry someone in the capital so that they can take care of you.
Now that Xia Tian has been named Lady Xian De, Xia Yang is even more unwilling to give in.
But Xia Chen is not young anymore, so he has to make preparations early in the capital.
Xia Yang took some time to go to Linzhou again, confirmed his opinion with Xia Tian, and then went directly to the capital.
With the help of Uncle Gu and Uncle Chen, I bought a three-courtyard house and a two-courtyard house in Beijing.
I also took a fancy to two shops and bought them together.
He planned to leave the second courtyard to Xia Yue and also leave a shop for her.
He also asked Uncle Chen to help him find someone to oversee the decoration, and once it was completed, he would move his business to Beijing.
He didn't know whether Shen Nian would settle in the capital after his term was over, but he knew that they would come back sooner or later, so they would definitely live in the capital in the future.
Xia Yang moved so quickly that Xia Shi was a little surprised. "Brother, if you move to the capital now, what should I do?"
The next year, right after the Chinese New Year, Xia Yang started packing up and moving.
"You usually live in the academy. Big brother will be back when you take the autumn exam in August."
It’s only been a few months anyway, time flies.
Xia Yang originally wanted to wait until Xia Shi finished the provincial examination before moving to the capital, but he was afraid that he would fail this time and would have to wait another three years.
The last time I went to Linzhou, I discussed it with Xia Tian and decided to move to the capital first. After Xia Shi finishes the exam, if he passes, he will go directly to the capital to wait for the imperial examination.
If I fail the exam this time, I might as well go to Beijing to study and come back for the autumn exam.
Because the provincial examination must be held in the hometown, this time we will wait until Xia Shi finishes the exam before picking him up to take him to the capital.
Another reason was that he was worried about Mrs. Xia's family. He was afraid that they would bother his father again, which would cause trouble again.
Xia Shi felt a little reluctant. They all left and left him here alone. Fortunately, he could live in the academy.
So, after the New Year, when the weather got a little warmer, Xia Yang moved to Beijing with his whole family.
Xia Yue also convinced her husband and took her parents-in-law to the capital.
As for the other brothers, they didn't follow along.
However, she did not go with Xia Yang. She planned to wait until Xia Shi finished the provincial examination before going to the capital together.
After all, there is still business here. After Xia Yang settled down in the capital, he came back first. He could take care of Xia Shi and handle the business here.
They did not inform Old Lady Xia and the others about their trip to the capital, but before leaving, Xia Zhengan asked Xia Yang to take two hundred taels of silver to Old Lady Xia as her pension for the rest of her life.
This time Xia Yang did not refuse.
As for how Old Lady Xia scolded Xia Zhengan for being ungrateful and unfilial after she found out that Xia Yang's family had gone to the capital, they could no longer hear it.
In August, Xia Shi passed the provincial examination and became a juren. In September, he went to the capital with Xia Yang and Xia Yue's family.
That year, Shen Nian's three-year term in Linzhou ended and he was transferred back to the capital, and he was not sent out for the time being.
Xia Tian could meet Xia Yang, Xia Yue and others more often.
"Fourth sister!" Xia Shi was already sixteen years old. This was the first time they met since he went to the capital in the summer when he was nine years old.
"A child? You've grown up now!" Xia Tian also looked at him with a smile.
Xia Shi looked at his fourth sister, who looked like a noble lady. Her whole temperament was completely different from her previous skinny appearance.
He didn't even dare to recognize himself!
Xia Tian saw that he was in a daze, so he walked over and hugged him. Xia Shi was suddenly at a loss!
"What? You don't recognize Fourth Sister anymore?" Xia Tian teased him, "Or are you alienated from Fourth Sister?"
"Fourth sister, you've changed so much that I can't even recognize you!" Xia Shi replied with a shy smile.
The fourth sister he had been thinking about day and night was standing right in front of him, but he didn't dare to recognize her.
I haven't seen you for a few years, and everyone has changed a lot.
Even Xia Zhengan and Chen Shi can no longer be seen in the way they used to be when they were farming.
When they met for the first time in Beijing, Shen Nian and Xia Tian went to Xia Yang’s house together.
"Father and mother!" Shen Nian and Xia Tian saluted Xia Zhengan and Chen.
The two of them were so embarrassed that they didn't know what to say.
“Si Ya, no, Xiao Tian, please sit down quickly.” Chen Shi didn’t dare to look at Shen Nian. She really had never seen such a high-ranking official like her son-in-law.
Xia Zhengan also kept rubbing his hands and just grinning foolishly.
After meeting, Chen Nian went back first, and came back often later in the summer, so the family gradually adapted to it.
Xia Yang opened four braised food stores in Beijing and his business is booming.
Xia Yue was originally in the braised food business like Xia Yang, but she was afraid that it would affect her brother's business, so she was very conflicted.
Xia Tian gave her the recipe for Malatang, which allowed her to open a Malatang restaurant, and the business was very good.
In March of the following year, Xia Shi took part in the imperial examination, but his performance was not ideal, so Shen Nian simply sent him to the Imperial College to continue his studies.
