Chapter 193: One man sought after by hundreds of families?
Xu Wan couldn't help but follow his thoughts and think about the scene.
Girls lined up to ask for marriage, matchmakers rushed to the door to propose marriage, and the pure iron threshold was stepped on and shined...
One man is sought by hundreds of families?
"Puff... Hahahaha... You are too narcissistic... You are simply the best person in the world at praising yourself." Xu Wan couldn't help laughing out loud, and tears were about to come out of her eyes.
Little Devil: "..." This was completely different from the reaction he expected!
"Humph!" Zong Jincheng glared at her angrily.
Bad guy, look down on him.
Sooner or later, she will know how lovable she is!
While the two were talking and laughing, the host came over.
"Madam Zong, I have heard of your name for a long time." The person who came was Madam Shen from the Minister of Rites, a close friend of the Crown Princess.
The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the imperial examinations. When Xu Wan chose a private tutor before, she said that her family did not have any connections in the Ministry of Rites. Now the connections were sent to her by the Crown Princess.
Xu Wan quickly stood up and responded: "Mrs. Shen, you are too kind. I don't have any great name. I am just an ordinary woman."
Other noble ladies and officials looked at her, but Mrs. Shen did not shy away from it. Instead, she took her hand and sat down to whisper: "The Crown Princess told me that she was able to get pregnant thanks to your guidance. The Crown Princess and I grew up together. You are the Crown Princess's benefactor, and naturally my benefactor."
Xu Wan was flattered and smiled: "It was because the Crown Princess was too worried before, and she was in a good mood that she got pregnant."
Mrs. Shen asked curiously: "You said you haven't given birth to a child, how do you have this experience?"
"I read it in a book, I read it in a book." Xu Wan laughed.
Mrs. Shen glanced at Jincheng and said, "I heard that Jincheng has been doing better and better in his studies recently. He has even been admitted to the Tongzi Class and is preparing to take the Tongzi Class next spring. This is all thanks to you."
Xu Wan continued modestly, "The teacher we hired is good, and the child is willing to learn."
"Haha, you are just joking. What is Jincheng willing to learn? At the beginning of the year, he went to play polo with my bastard son. Several people also set off firecrackers on the polo field, which scared a lot of horses." Mrs. Shen exposed him mercilessly.
When Xu Wan heard this, she immediately looked at the little devil.
It seems that you used to blow up the place with firecrackers.
Zong Jincheng swallowed his saliva and tried to explain, "I, I was in the past. I haven't set off firecrackers for a long time. It has nothing to do with me if Shen Yibai goes out to mess around later. He works alone. Why are you looking at me? Don't you know that I study at home every day?"
The little devil became more and more confident as he spoke, and Xu Wan didn't know how to respond.
You rascal, can you raise your emotional intelligence? You put the blame on others in front of their mothers. Can't you be more tactful?
Xu Wan laughed dryly. Fortunately, Mrs. Shen was generous. Not only did she not argue with the child, but she also agreed: "Yes, Yi Bai went to find Jin Cheng again later, and Jin Cheng never came out again. But he was not idle either, and went to find other people to fool around."
The little devil spread his hands and looked at her.
Look, look, this is not my problem.
Xu Wan quietly kicked him from below, signaling him to restrain himself, but it was obvious that the little devil not only did not understand, but also glared at her.
Mrs. Shen patted the back of her hand and said, "I just came to get to know you. Don't be nervous. Maybe we will deal with each other often in the future."
Xu Wan nodded in response.
Before Mrs. Shen left, she whispered in her ear: "The Crown Princess said that she knew that your interpersonal relationships in Beijing were average. Now that she is pregnant, it is inconvenient for her to bring you into it. You will follow me in the future."
Xu Wan was a little confused.
Madam Shen had already stood up and said, "Let's go and enjoy the flowers."
Although Madam Shen spoke gently, she was possessed by the Sheniu in her actions. Most of the officials and their wives in the capital had a good relationship with her. Xu Wan was dragged by her to introduce her to people everywhere, saying that she was her close friend.
Xu Wan: "???"
Misty and round.
The little devil followed her and saw people coming to talk to Xu Wan. He met one after another. This lively scene seemed as if she was the one who hosted the flower viewing banquet.
Grandmother had almost no friends in the capital, but Xu Wan made a lot of friends at once, and she couldn't care about him at the moment.
"Bad guy." The little devil muttered.
She also told him to call her mother for a day, but she didn't mention it at all after coming for a long time.
Why didn't she open her mouth?
If she opened her mouth and asked him to call her mother, although he was very reluctant, he could not give in and call her twice because the two had just stopped fighting.
Annoying, doesn't keep his word, only makes fun of people.
The little devil was angry, with a droopy face, sitting on the seat and eating pomegranates.
He bit hard after eating one, as if he was not biting the pomegranate, but Xu Wan.
"Ah..." He suddenly screamed in pain.
The little devil was too strong and bit his tongue.
The howling of the little cub finally attracted Xu Wan's attention. She sat back and asked nervously: "What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
The little devil covered his mouth and glared at her resentfully: "Don't bother me."
His tongue hurt, and he couldn't speak clearly. Xu Wan heard it at once: "Did you bite your tongue when eating pomegranates?"
The little devil became more and more angry as he thought about it. He would never admit such a shameful thing.
Xu Wan asked Cuizhi to get some ice cubes and handed them to the little devil: "Come, just hold it in your mouth for a while."
The little devil continued to glare at her resentfully, just angry and didn't want to accept it.
The eldest young master got angry, and three cows couldn't pull him back.
Xu Wan sighed, pinched his cheek with one hand to make him open his mouth, and indeed saw a little red tongue, but fortunately there was no bleeding. She took a small ice cube out of the water with her other hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Hold it in your mouth, and put on clothes if it gets cold." The overbearing mother spoke.
The little devil shrank his head and pouted.
Just hold it in your mouth, why are you so fierce.
Humph!
Xu Wan took all the pomegranates in front of him, and asked Cuizhi to bring his coat. There were also some snacks on the table, which she also took away.
He couldn't eat these, so she didn't eat them either.
This feeling of being carefully taken care of was particularly good. The corners of the little devil's mouth slowly rose, but in order not to be discovered by her, he was trying to press it down.
In the following banquets, Xu Wan stayed beside him all the time, and except for someone who came to talk to her, she never looked for anyone else.
After the flower viewing banquet, the little devil had long since returned to normal, but Xu Wan had never opened her mouth to let him call her mother, which puzzled him.
Was she joking with him?
When Mrs. Shen sent her away, she said, "Mrs. Zong, I will take Yibai to your house someday. Maybe he will like the learning atmosphere in your house and be willing to study hard with Jincheng."
The little devil thought to himself that it was useless to come. Shen Yibai only had fun in his mind, so he didn't care about studying.
Xu Wan nodded politely and said, "You are welcome to come anytime."
Mrs. Shen smiled and turned to the little devil and said, "Jincheng, you have such a good mother, you must cherish it. I am waiting to see you shine in the imperial examination."
The little devil immediately responded, "Of course, I am determined to take the top spot in the imperial examination."
