After being reborn, the powerful minister's heart is overwhelmed
Chapter 86 Give Lord Shen a cold bench!
There was a knocking sound outside, and Nian Xiang came in with a candle in his hand, and cut the heart of the candle, "Girl, it's time to rest."
Qiao Guxin just finished writing the last word, put down the pen in his hand and gently rubbed his arm, "I wonder what's going on with Brother Qing?"
"Don't worry, girl, the third young master is very talented and will definitely get a good ranking." Nianxiang blew on the writing on it and carefully put it away for Qiao Guxin.
Qiao Guxin didn't say much after hearing this, and just sighed softly.
Nianxiang's eyes turned slightly, and she guessed that Qiao Guxin was probably feeling sorry for Qiao Wenbing, "Girl, relax, it's not necessarily a bad thing that the Fourth Young Master didn't go to the exam this time. It just so happens that he can study at Taixueduo for the next scientific exam.
, bound for high school.”
Only then did Qiao Guxin smile, "You understand me best."
Just a change of thought, Qiao Wenbing deliberately ate the food by herself. She couldn't help but think of her previous life, when her mother was so angry that she had confused thoughts. In addition to hurting the actress and her daughter, she also hurt her grandmother.
Although my grandmother had a crush on Qiao Xunfeng at that time, according to Qiao's original thoughts, there was no way my mother would have such thoughts towards her grandmother. In her previous life, she could only treat her as an accidental injury, but looking at it now, what if it was not an accidental injury?
Qiao Xunfeng made Qiao Wenbing unable to take the scientific examination. The murderous intention in the old lady's eyes was real.
If the old lady were sober, even if Mr. Gu made another mistake, she would probably not agree with Qiao Wenqing talking about her future.
In the last life, she was just an old lady who watched Ning Shunhou divorce his wife, but what if the old lady had sworn a vow because of Qiao Wenqing and was still disheartened even when she woke up?
Qiao Xunfeng made it very clear that she wanted to take revenge on everyone in the Hou Mansion. As a result, everyone would live in pain and be unable to extricate themselves.
The young talented man ruined his yearning, and he will live like a zombie from now on. In the eyes of the old lady, the century-old foundation of the Hou Mansion lies in Qiao Wenqing, and if it is destroyed like this, she will not rest in peace even if she dies.
As for myself, my brother left sadly, my mother was divorced for being unworthy, I had no one to rely on after my death, and I only felt wasted when I went to my husband's house.
And is Ning Shunhou happy? Definitely not.
Qiao Guxin slowly closed her eyes, feeling cold sweat all over her body. Fortunately, fortunately, she was able to do it again.
That night, Qiao Guxin hardly slept a wink. When the day came, the old lady set up a carriage before dawn to pick up Qiao Wenqing.
The whole family was waiting outside, not sure what the outcome would be.
Originally, Mrs. Gu wanted to go in person, but her legs were too weak to get on the carriage, so she just asked everyone to stay and wait.
Ning Shunhou went to court and never came back, and no one revealed it to his female relatives.
They waited from early in the morning until the sun was shining and it was almost noon, then they listened to the sound of horse hooves.
"Coming, coming." The person below shouted.
The old lady closed her eyes in excitement and did not dare to ask about the result. She just put her hands together and recited Amitabha.
Finally, the carriage stopped, and the boy jumped out of the carriage, "Old lady, madam, I'm so happy."
After hearing this, the old lady dared to open her eyes, glanced at the carriage to make sure no one was getting off, and recited the Buddha's name three times loudly.
"Don't look at it. The waiter closed the door and came back." The boy's face was full of joy. He was also cautious. Even if he saw no one coming out for a long time, he didn't dare to do it easily.
leave.
It wasn't until the gate of Gongyuan was closed tightly and it was confirmed that Qiao Wenqing was not coming out that he hurried back with the carriage.
"Great joy, indeed great joy." Grandma Miao patted the old lady's hand, asking her to come back to her senses quickly.
Counting the time, I can't come back today, so I will enter the palace and be selected as a Jinshi.
It would be good if you can be appointed by the Holy Spirit. Even if you can't, you will still have fame and can be an official.
Qiao Wenqing was able to win the first time, which is naturally the best thing.
"Very good, reward, big reward." The old lady nodded excitedly. The descendants of the Hou family have become officials, and it is important to become an official.
The lintel of the Marquis Mansion was held up by Qiao Wenqing. He could accomplish something without relying on his ancestors' protection, and he would have an infinite future in the future.
Mrs. Gu shed tears of joy, but the old lady said that it was up to Mr. Gu to decide how to reward and how much money to give.
Even though she is busy, Mrs. Gu is happy and asks people to reward each person with sixteen copper coins first. This is from the public school. If they can get into the top three gold medals, each person will be rewarded with eighty-eight copper coins. This silver coin will be given by Gu.
in the small warehouse.
After listening to Gu's order, the entire Hou Mansion was as happy as the New Year.
"Ancestors bless you, ancestors bless you." The old lady returned to the house and narrowed her eyes when she smiled, "I think I can eat two more bowls of rice today."
Mrs. Gu and her two aunts both laughed, "I'm sure you'll be satisfied with this meal."
Everyone joked for a while, and the old lady turned her attention to Qiao Wenbing again, "You must be as promising as your brother. The Hou Mansion will count on you two brothers in the future."
"My grandson, please remember your grandmother's teachings." Qiao Wenbing quickly responded.
Because he had injuries on his body, the old lady asked someone to bring him a soft cushion, "That's good. I, the Marquis, are all good."
"Master, Mrs. Chu's wife sent me a message asking to see you." Just as he was saying this, the person below handed over a message saying that Mrs. Chu was outside the door.
It was somewhat unethical to come to the door so hastily and in a hurry, but now that everyone in the Hou family was rejoicing, no one cared about it, so the old lady asked someone to invite the person in immediately.
Just when Mrs. Chu came in, Marquis Ning Shun also came back, so they went in together.
This morning, we discussed the qualifications of this year's candidates. The people at the Hanlin Academy had not had a good night's sleep for a few days, so they finally compiled a list and submitted it to the Holy Emperor.
This small list has come out, and the final ranking has to be determined by the Holy Spirit himself, but the first few are still the same.
However, Ning Shun's face was indifferent. After entering, he just greeted the old lady according to the rules.
Mrs. Chu was very happy, with a smile on her face. She was also wearing a lavender dress with large peonies embroidered with red thread. It was very festive. "I got the news and came here to announce the good news. Old lady, don't do it."
Do you think I'm rude?"
The old lady waved her hands quickly, "How could it be? Everyone is happy when the children have a happy event. But the results haven't been released yet, so everything is not certain yet. I remember Mr. Chu has also taken the scientific examination, and he will definitely be on the list."
Mrs. Chu laughed a few times and said, "I'm not back today, but our Han Yin family is determined not to be compared with Wen Qing."
Then he glanced at Ning Shunhou and said, "Today I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Hall. My nephew from my mother's side also came to take the scientific examination this year. Now that he has not returned home, I think he can still get a ranking. It's just that the child is dull. If he hadn't got it,
The Marquis is so pity for me, I don't dare to come to you now."
When Mrs. Chu said this, everyone present felt like Ming Jing.
Qiao Guxin could only get up and say that there was something else going on outside, and led Qiao Wenzhi out first.
When she went out, Qiao Wenzhi's face was redder than the persimmons outside.
Qiao Guxin took Qiao Wenzhi's hand and said with a smile, "Female university, you really can't stay."
Qiao Wenzhi chased Qiao Guxin with a smile, "Big sister is so bad."
Then the two sisters laughed together.
Originally, Mrs. Gu and Qiao were still thinking that after the Chu family arrived, Qiao Xunfeng would be embarrassed. If nothing else, just mentioning Qiao Xunfeng's biological mother would make her lose her composure.
If Feng Zhaoan was in high school, he would be an official. It doesn't matter if he is a concubine in the Hou family. An actor will always be an actor, so it's impossible not to choose. Now that it's better, it saves them the trouble.
In the room, Mrs. Chu spoke straightforwardly, the old lady's smile remained unchanged, waiting for her to say more, while Ning Shunhou kept a cold face and said nothing the whole time.
He wanted Qiao Xunfeng to marry him before, but now? The old lady couldn't even nod her head. His daughter had been lying low and young for so long, and it was all in vain.
Mrs. Chu raised her head and looked at Mr. Gu, who nodded with a smile before continuing, "Every family has a daughter, and hundreds of families want to ask for it. Miss Qiao's quality is so good that many ladies in the capital have praised her. Fortunately, her brother and sister-in-law asked her to help her."
I'll keep an eye on the child, but if I don't wait until later, I won't be able to get in."
Mrs. Chu was originally very happy, and she was so eloquent that she could say everything she needed to explain clearly even though she had many nice things to say.
It was inappropriate for one of her aunts to come to the door hastily, but she also mentioned Feng Zhaoan's parents, pretending that the family also knew about it, and everyone was eagerly waiting for Mrs. Chu to come to the door to mention this matter.
"What Madam said, Zhi Yatou usually talks little, so she is lucky to be able to catch Madam's eyes." The old lady responded with a smile.
In this case, it also has this meaning.
Different from sending messages privately on weekdays, today it was mentioned in a serious manner.
Mrs. Chu said a few words in succession, "If the old lady, Lord Marquis, Madam takes pity on my natal nephew's talent and waits for the results to be released, if there is a name on the list, I will bring him to see Madam. If I think he can be admitted,
Now, let's discuss it and make it a good thing. If unfortunately I fail, I will not be worthy of the beauty of the second girl, so I will treat it as if I have never been here today."
Mrs. Chu spoke straightforwardly, and she showed her sincerity by mentioning it when she was not on the list.
Feng Zhaoan didn't return home today either. This was almost certain, but he made a precaution and kept his attitude very low.
The old lady didn't agree explicitly, she just said, "Madam is a cheerful person."
Then he asked Aunt Miao behind him to let Qiao Wenzhi come out to meet people.
This was a serious gift to Mrs. Chu. Mrs. Chu immediately took Qiao Wenzhi's hand, but it was different from the previous meeting. She might be a serious relative in the future. Mrs. Chu praised her repeatedly and directly took the jade from her wrist.
The bracelet was placed on Qiao Wenzhi's arm.
Mrs. Chu is not a serious future mother-in-law. This bracelet is actually a new bracelet for her, and she gave it away just for the meeting, but she cannot say this clearly.
Qiao Wenzhi naturally wanted to refuse.
At this time, it was up to the old lady to say, "It's rare for Mrs. Chu to fall in love with a kid like you, so just accept it."
This matter is settled.
When Mrs. Chu put the bracelet on Qiao Wenzhi, she happened to see the bracelet that was originally worn on her body. It was exquisitely made and was not something that a concubine in an ordinary palace could wear.
In Beijing, whether a concubine can be welcomed into the house depends on the attitude of the mistress. If the mistress likes her, her character will be good in everyone's eyes.
Today we are all here, and the two aunts from Ning Shunhou are also there. Seeing that these two aunts are behaving dignifiedly and showing their dignity, there is no need to worry about which one is Qiao Wenzhi's biological mother.
It was already this hour, and the old lady wanted to keep Mrs. Chu for dinner, but Mrs. Chu did not refuse.
Just as he was talking, the concierge received another message, saying that Mr. Shen was here.
Mrs. Chu immediately laughed and said, "Today, the Marquis Mansion is full of people."
Apparently, everyone knew that something good was going to happen to the Hou Mansion and came to congratulate him.
The old lady who said a few words looked at her and smiled, but Mrs. Gu reacted and asked someone to invite Shen Qiuhe in.
Now it’s good, we were planning to set up a banquet, so there was no need to add any extra dishes.
Mr. Gu said he was happy, but he was not very happy in his heart. He didn't know what to do when he came here on such a good day.
Watching the people around him chatting and laughing, Ning Shunhou clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, and he could only let the stinging pain suppress the boredom in his heart.
Originally, today's joy should belong to my sister Feng.
Shen Qiuhe came in from outside. He listened to the people talking and laughing in the room from a distance, and frowned unconsciously.
In the past few days, Wang Si sent people to watch outside the Hou Mansion, saying that there was nothing unusual about the Hou Mansion. The only special thing was that a doctor came in from outside, and there were people coming in and out to get medicine.
A big house like the Hou Mansion should have its own pharmacy for the house doctor. Being able to get medicine from outside shows that things are not simple.
Shen Qiuhe couldn't help but think of the way Qiao Guxin was frightened on the carriage. Could it be that he was frightened and made people sick?
Although I heard that Qiao Wenbing was so ill that he didn't even take part in the imperial examination, he still felt uneasy.
It happened that the people below said that all the Chu family had gone, and he couldn't sit still anymore, so he took a few ginseng plants from the house and came.
"Master Shen, please." Seeing Shen Qiuhe's face was gloomy, the people serving him below did not dare to wear the air, and the hands that lifted the curtain were a little trembling.
Shen Qiuhe hummed, lowered his head and entered the door. He looked at the people in the room and was stunned for a moment, then he realized what he was doing and stepped forward to greet them.
The excuse was, of course, that I heard that the old lady was back, and the Duke's wife was originally going to come, but the weather changed in the past two days, and the Duke's wife was not feeling well, so she asked Shen Qiuhe to come over for a visit.
Originally, Shen Qiuhe and Qiao Guxin were going to get married next year. It was normal for the two families to move around more. The old lady did not become suspicious and just smiled and said that the Duke and Madam were thinking about her.
As soon as Shen Qiuhe came, Mrs. Chu couldn't bring up the matter of Feng Zhaoan anymore, so she could only circle around Shen Qiuhe, "It's true that the children have grown up one after another. When will our Han Yin be like the second young master? I feel relieved."
Compared to Mrs. Chu, Shen Qiuhe should be more of a person. The old lady then smiled and said, "You are so humble. Wen Qing often comes back to praise Han Yin. I envy your tightness."
The elders were talking, but Shen Qiuhe didn't need to reply. He looked around everyone, but Qiao's old intention was nowhere to be seen.
Mrs. Gu looked at Shen Qiuhe and didn't know what he was thinking about. She pursed her lips and didn't say a warm greeting, just pretending that she didn't see him.
Even when it was time to eat, she didn't talk to Shen Qiuhe. It didn't matter if she was normal. Ning Shunhou was here today, and he just came to entertain Shen Qiuhe. But everyone knew that Ningshun Hou was here. My heart is bleeding, so I don't have any thoughts about Shen Qiuhe.
If the old lady hadn't talked to Shen Qiuhe from time to time, and later Qiao Wenbing greeted her during the meal, Shen Qiuhe would have been sitting on the cold bench.
But when Shen Qiuhe looked at Qiao Wenbing, he didn't look sick.
I drank cup after cup of wine, but I couldn't figure it out.
