Chapter 248 Publicity
After dinner, Magistrate Wu said goodbye and went back. The dean and Master Sun did not stay long. After all, there were other masters waiting for them in the college!
Except for Wen Zhifu's family, there was no one else.

Seeing everyone gone, Mrs. Wen said: "Actually, in addition to congratulations, I came here today for another reason. I believe you, Wenwu's mother, also saw it. My Die'er fell in love with Wenwu the first time she saw him."

The rest of the Xu family looked at each other.

Zhang said: "Since Mrs. Wen has made it clear, she must have something to say."

Wen Die had no idea that her mother would say that. Her face turned red and she didn't dare to look up at others.

Xu Wenwu was also stunned. Looking at Wen Die's red side face, he felt a little amorous for no reason.

Mrs. Wen said: "Then I will say it shamelessly. If Wenwu has no intention of my Die'er, I will not stay any longer and cannot let her make mistakes. However, our two families will never have any dissatisfaction because of this time. If Wenwu doesn't If you are interested, then how about our two families helping each other and becoming an in-laws?"

For a woman to take the initiative to say such words, and for the magistrate's wife to say it herself, she was already putting her face on the line, and it was enough to show the depth of Mrs. Wen's love for Wen Die.

Mrs. Zhang said: "I would rather Wendie be my daughter-in-law, but I can't make the decision. It's all up to Wenwu to make the decision. Wenwu, tell me what you think?"

Xu Wenwu's calm heart also began to become a little chaotic. He didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Wen Die, but it seemed that there was something really different. However, he was afraid that it was an illusion and that he would let down other people's feelings.

Looking at Xu Wenwu's look, Mrs. Zhang knew that her son had experienced such a thing for the first time and didn't know much about emotions, so she said: "Then let the two children get along with each other. If it is suitable and they care about each other, then naturally It could not be better."

Mrs. Wen nodded and said, "That's what I mean too!"

Ms. Wang was still satisfied with Wen Die. She could tell that Wen Die was a quiet and polite girl. She was the daughter of a dignified prefect, and she didn't put on any airs at all. She was very friendly.

Xiao Wu winked and pulled Xu Wenwu and said in a low voice: "Brother, are you going to marry your sister-in-law? I think Miss Wen is pretty, and she would be great as my sister-in-law."

Xu Wenwu knocked Xiao Wu on the head and said: "Don't talk nonsense!"

Xiao Wu stuck out his tongue, not daring to continue joking with his elder brother.

Qibao walked to Cui Cancan's house and knocked on the door.

The door was opened a crack, and when he saw it was Qibao, he opened the door.

Qibao asked: "Have you done all the leg-raising tasks at noon today?"

Cui Cancan said: "I did it, I did it in the room."

Qibao said: "Why don't you go out?"

Cui Cancan whispered: "I'm afraid that if I go out like this, it will embarrass your family."

Qibao said: "What's so embarrassing about this? As long as you don't feel embarrassed about yourself, no one will feel embarrassed about you. You can't even look down on yourself, how do you expect others to look down on you?"

Seeing that Cui Cancan didn't speak, Qibao said, "Come out, you can't hide. If there are guests staying at home these days, you will always encounter them."

Cui Cancan nodded and followed Qibao out of the room.

Although the Wen family members sighed inwardly when they saw Cui Cancan, they didn't show it on their faces.

"Mrs. Wen, this is Cui Cancan, who came with Chen Yu and is currently staying at our house." Wang said.

Cui Cancan knelt down and saluted.

Mrs. Wen saw that although Cui Cancan was fatter, his courtesy was standard, and it seemed that he had been taught.

"Miss Cui, you're welcome!" Mrs. Wen said.

Mrs. Wen didn't know that Cui Cancan was the daughter of a second-grade general, otherwise she wouldn't have accepted this gift safely.

In the afternoon, Zhang's and Li's natal families came to Xujiacun. "Congratulations from the in-laws!" As soon as they entered the house, old man Zhang smiled like a chrysanthemum.

The two old men came in and said, "Congratulations, congratulations to my grandson for passing the exam! Hahahaha."

Everyone laughed when they heard the two congratulating each other.

"What a great grandson! I have given my grandma a face. Everyone in our village knows that I am the grandma of the Juren Master. They are all very envious! Grandma has never been so prosperous!" Mrs. Chen was very happy.

"This is a great thing when smoke comes out of ancestral graves!"

"I just passed by the entrance of the village and found that many people came. They all wanted to come and meet Wen Wu. I am so happy!" Old Man Li said.

The old man pondered for a long time and said: "They don't mean any harm. Boss, go and talk to them. Remember to be polite, and tell everyone about the farmhouse."

Uncle Xu said: "I understand, Dad."

The old man introduced Magistrate Wen to his relatives.

When the two families heard that it was the magistrate, they hurriedly knelt down to salute. Magistrate Wen immediately stopped him and said: "There is no need to be polite, my status now is just a guest."

The old man said: "Prefect Wen is an easy-going man, so don't be too polite. Come on, sit down and have a cup of tea first. Seeing how you look like this, I might have rushed here in a hurry."

Old Man Zhang said: "No! When I heard the news, I threw away my life, so I dragged Old Li and ran here!"

Mrs. Chen took Xu Wenwu's hand and said, "Hey Wenwu! Grandma has never been so prosperous in her life! Don't mention how beautiful grandma's heart is!"

Xu Wenwu smiled gently and said, "Thank you, grandma, for coming all the way to celebrate for me!"

Mrs. Chen smiled and said: "We have become successful in civil and military affairs, why am I not happy! Your uncle and the others look as if they themselves have passed the examination."

Xu Wenwu said: "Why aren't uncle and aunt here?"

Mrs. Chen said: "The workshop cannot be separated from people. When your grandpa and I come, we can only let him bear the burden first."

After a while, Uncle Xu came back. Dad: "He's gone! I also used this to spread the word. They said that when the village is opened, they will bring their friends to support it."

The old man said: "They all came here because of their civil and military status."

Magistrate Wen said: "There will be more people by then. Everyone in Qingyun City is now well-known. I think there will definitely be scholars coming by then. Master, you have to be prepared."

The old man said: "Well, I didn't expect that passing the civil and military examinations would also make our village popular. It can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone!"

Magistrate Wen said: "Xujia Village has beautiful scenery and many special features. It will definitely attract such tourists to come and visit. This is all thanks to the old man!"

The old man said: "My original intention is to make money with the people in the village. Life is not easy for everyone, and it is also a good thing to have more income."

Magistrate Wen said: "Old man, please don't be modest. When I came here, I had already heard Magistrate Wu talk about the Xu family's deeds. I was really impressed."

The old man said: "Thank you, Mr. Wen. Our family has also gone through hardships, so we feel the same way. If we can help, we will try our best to help."

Magistrate Wen said: "It would be a blessing for the people if there were more people like the old man!"

The old man shook his head and said, "I can't bear what Mr. Wen says!"

"Brother, Old Man Li and I can have a good life today because of you. Otherwise, our two families would still be eating rice bran vegetables. Who among the villagers in the village would not have a hard time? Even the town is so miserable. There are so many refugees, all of which you have single-handedly resettled, why can't you bear it?" Old Man Zhang said.
