Chapter 560 The big and scary "Cuge"

A group of them arrived and moved into the house still called "Cuge" in Xiangzhou County.

After tidying up, washing up, having a simple dinner, we all rested.

A night of silence,

The next day, almost noon,

Chu Chu got up and had a full meal. After walking around the entire house with Liu Qiuli, August and Zishu, she realized that this was not an ordinary house at all. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a royal villa.

We were playing around in a circle, occasionally sitting down to rest, and we only walked in a small circle for half an hour. The house must be too big, and it is in a good location close to the government office.

Qiuli said: "If Miss usually feels bored, she doesn't have to go out. There are so many places to relieve her boredom in the backyard."

Zishu was even more outspoken and said: "Miss, I saw there is a boat and a bamboo raft. We can use the boat to play and catch fish in the future."

August hurriedly threatened him: "You are very smart, so don't do anything random. Don't let the lady get on the boat if there are only a few people. Be careful and let the master do the work."

But Zishu just stuck out his tongue at her and said, "Anyway, it's fun."

She likes this house so much. Not to mention Chu Chu and her fourth uncle's family, even if all the family members from Shunguo Duke's Mansion and Taohua Village are moved here, they can still live there.

No wonder this place was originally empty. There were also a dozen or so servants such as a housekeeper, a housekeeper, and a cook. If there weren't any, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to take care of it.

There are pavilions, pavilions and pavilions, as well as small bridges and flowing water. Sitting in the small pavilion connected to the long corridor in the back, looking at the ginkgo forest that has not yet begun to turn yellow in the distance, such a beautiful scenery in the early morning makes people feel relaxed and happy. .

No matter how I looked at it, I felt that this house looked a bit like the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River that I had inadvertently described to Brother Jue. I think Brother Jue had put a lot of effort into buying this house, and I'm afraid he had spent a lot of money on it.

Speaking of this house, Yan Yongning was shocked when the housekeeper brought him in for the first time. If the house was not in the name of the legitimate daughter of Duke Shun, it would have been highly recommended by Prince Jue. , he wouldn’t even dare to live with it if he gave it to him.

If the house was in his or Xiyue's name, he would definitely be impeached. Those who didn't know thought that he had embezzled a lot of money when he arrived in Jiangnan.

Fortunately, the wealthy businessmen and households in the south of the Yangtze River are very low-key. The exterior doors are all very simple and well-behaved. Most people will not know how exquisite and grand the back is when they enter the front yard or the second yard. However, men usually only treat guests in a simple way. In the front yard, Yan Yongning works in a low-key manner and usually does not take guests to his home. He often entertains guests directly in the front hall of the government office.

And Xiyue, like Mr. Lanchuan, is not the kind of person who likes to show off and often entertain guests. Now that the child is young, she has a reason to shirk.

Moreover, when Xiyue went out, Grandma Yan also repeatedly explained that Yan Yongning had just established a foothold in Xiangzhou County, so she must share the same enemy with him and be a husband and wife. Don't hold him back. Naturally, she also wanted to beat her and don't get caught up in money. and the meaning of being blindfolded by wealth.

In order to win over the court officials, wealthy families would use any means. If they were not careful, they would directly target the female family members in the backyard and win over them with money.

Therefore, they arrived in a low-key manner, and did not alert other colleagues when they picked up Yan Yongning last night.

Even though they were new here, they only set up a few tables in the front yard to entertain Yan Yongning's colleagues in the government office. As for their wives, they placed them in a cubicle in the front yard, just to let Xi Yue get acquainted with them. , as long as you don’t even know each other when you meet.

Yan Yongning, like his father, has never had the idea of ​​needing the connections and strength of a woman in the back house to win over him or even climb up the ladder. Otherwise, he would not have taken a liking to Xi Yue, who has a gentle, virtuous and restrained personality.

Even when introducing Chu Chu to his colleagues, he only said that she was his niece, and did not reveal the identity of Shun Guo Gongfu and Chu Chu's "Yaoxiang County Lord", so as to avoid the inconvenience of being stared at by others when Chu Chu went out.

Fourth uncle Chu Chu, who is so upright and honest and never forgets his original intention, likes him very much and feels that he will definitely be a good official in the court in the future and will be qualified for a better position.

September 20,

Government examination

Mr. Lan Chuan's three brothers from the Chu Chu family did not take the exam.

Yan Zhenzhen's fiancé Zhen Ziyue entered the venue for the first time, and it was heard that two students from Yan's Scholarly Academy were also going to attend.

My brothers didn’t take the exam, but Mr. Lan Chuan said: “The beauty of a tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.”

It is said that the three of them are too young. There is no need to seize the name of this easily available scholar early, lest the young man's ambition and mind be affected. Instead, they should concentrate on practicing first and then hit the target in three years.

According to some adults, it is not advisable to enter the imperial court too early as an official. It is best to wait until after the first year of the crown. Therefore, it is recommended that they take the government examination in three years, and then wait for the provincial examination and Chunwei to pass it together in three years. , then it would be best if I could hone myself in the Hanlin Academy for a few more years.

On October 18th, the results of the government examination came out. Zhen Ziyue ranked second in Jing County. The second place in Jing County may not be outstanding in the entire Qingzhou County, so he also followed Chen Jichang's suggestion and took the exam next time.

But Yan Zhenzhen was also a proper scholar's wife after marrying.

Not long after the announcement, Yan Zhenzhen got married.

Because she was married too far away, only Mrs. Yan Zhang took a few women from the village and Yaya to go with her. As sisters-in-law, Mrs. Yan Du and Xiuniang originally wanted to go together, but they were still separated by Xiaosi and Xiaowu. Xiaoliu was holding back and delayed, unable to go.

Although not many people went there, every household asked helpers to bring a lot of things, including a lot of money for makeup, all wanting Yan Zhenzhen to get married in a decent manner.

Even Chu Chu herself gave Sister Zhenzhen a set of precious gold-headed masks and a thousand taels of silver at the bottom of the box. Duke Shunguo's Mansion also prepared other generous gifts.

The two families agreed that the bride would leave Yan Qinghua's house when the time came. Grandma Chen and Yan Qinghua would help her. Grandma Yan felt relieved. She believed that she could handle her family's affairs well even if she couldn't go there in person.

After finishing the work, Grandma Yan came over to play with Mingzhu in her arms. She also said that although few of her mother-in-law’s family were there, the advantage was that Grandma Chen and Yan Qinghua were so popular that even the neighbors came to eat at more than a dozen tables. The wedding was a lively affair.

Mrs. Yan Zhang is no longer as picky as she used to be. In fact, she had already asked Grandma Chen and Yan Qinghua to buy a second-floor apartment for Yan Zhenzhen in a good location in Qingzhou County for her dowry. It also had a shop and could The kind of house that people live in, even the shop under Yan Zhenzhen's name in Qingliu County, is also managed by her.

Originally, she wanted to buy her some land in Qingzhou County, but Yan Zhenzhen didn't want it. She said that if her husband was elected in a few years, it would be too troublesome to be sent abroad, so Yan Zhang also converted it into money and gave it to her. Bottom of the box.

The Zhen family returned to Jingxian County to pay homage to their ancestors. Three days later, Grandma Chen stepped forward and mobilized her in-laws and sister-in-law to move to the dowry in Qingzhou County on the grounds that it would be convenient for her uncle to study and make money with Yan Zhenzhen. The house lived together.

Now Yan Zhenzhen and her sister-in-law are starting a business in their own shop with the money given by everyone. I heard that the business is doing very well, and there is no problem in supporting their family and earning some money for themselves.

When Zhen's mother arrived in Qingzhou County, Yan Zhenzhen didn't let her go out to work anymore, and she was married to a cook, so she occasionally went out with her mother-in-law to buy vegetables, look after the family, and occasionally went to the shop to help out when she had nothing to do.

According to Yan Zhenzhen, she wanted to expand her business, but Chen Jichang and Yan Qinghua both advised her that in addition to making money, she should also take good care of her husband-in-law. It would also be good to have a child in the next two or three years, in case her husband-in-law fails to succeed. , when the time comes to get good grades and go abroad, dealing with business matters will be equally troublesome.

However, after much thought, Yan Zhenzhen still wanted to earn more money. She said that if she had children and her husband wanted to live up to his reputation, he would have to spend more money. Anyway, he would really be sent abroad in the future, and Grandma Chen would help to watch over it. It seemed that she was relying on Grandma Chen, and she didn't show any concern at all. Grandma Chen was so happy that she nodded her head in agreement and promised to take care of the matter in advance. The two of them were already in love, and they really didn't mind having too much trouble.
