Chapter 244

In the spring of the following year, the imperial court really issued an edict, presided over by the Ministry of War, ordering martial arts practitioners from all the prefectures in the world to take martial arts exams in various state capitals. The Ministry of War confers military posts.

Cheng Sheng has waited for a year, but it's time to wait.He was originally serving in the Valiant Cavalry Battalion. Although it is a bit far-fetched, it can be regarded as a serious name in the Ministry of War. There is no need to worry about the first exam. Spears, wrestling with weights, etc. are practiced one by one, and the officer will give a pass assessment, and only wait for the palace examination after autumn.The palace examination is the key, not only to be outstanding in martial arts, but also to be proficient in military strategy.

When Cheng Sheng came to Luo's family back then, he had already started to recognize characters. Later, he followed Luo Baisu in office, and Luo Baisu also wanted to teach him, so he knew a lot of characters.Ever since the news of the imperial court opening martial arts was revealed the year before last, he has been working hard to prepare, and he has read a lot of military books, but in the end it was just talk on paper. For this reason, Luo Baisu specially asked Zuo Qingzhi to give Cheng Sheng I made up for my military knowledge.

As for how much he can understand and comprehend, it depends on his own good fortune.In short, all the bridges that the Luo family can build for him have been built, and it depends on his own good fortune to go where he can go.

Cheng Sheng himself is fine, he has to hang out in the military camp every day, so he doesn't have much time to think about it, but his brother Cheng Qing, who is at home, frowns every day, very sad, and Xiang Lan is also a little worried.The importance of Cheng Sheng's martial arts examination to the Cheng family is the same as that of Luo Baisu's examination system to the Luo family. Luo Tian just wanted to persuade him, but he couldn't find any good reason, so he could only go with them. Now her family has also said Endless troubles.

The first one, the Liu family, came again, but it wasn't Liu Er's idiot, but the big housekeeper of the Liu family.

The big butler seemed very reluctant, his attitude was very arrogant and rude, and he didn't respect the meaning of the Luo family very much.Originally, with a family like the Liu family, even being a concubine is not something that ordinary people can match.

A poor family, poor and without money, spends their whole life begging for a wife, giving birth to a few debt collectors, and spends their whole life in a daze.When you come to the famous families in Shangjing, marriage is very particular.Usually the women in the backyard are of different ranks, with clear distinctions.The so-called main wife, who shoulders the burden of having children and taking care of the housework, is the face of the outside world, usually the result of a joint compromise between the two families, who pay attention to the right family, shrewd and capable, and put talent and character first. It doesn't matter whether she is beautiful or not, because her status depends on her family status and the strength of her natal family behind her, and has nothing to do with her husband's preferences.As for the concubine's room, it is mostly given by the elders of the family for the sake of the heirs. Usually, the concubine should be round, jade, good-looking, good-natured, and the most important thing is to be able to have multiple children.The last category is completely selected according to the preferences of the host to relieve boredom. They are commonly known as all kinds of foxy goblins. They are enchanting and are favored by the host, and are quite disgusted by the elders and regular wives.

In the eyes of the Liu family, Luo Mingdu is a typical vixen.Now that you are married, you should be honest and live by your husband and son-in-law. Even if a man has such and such minor problems, as a woman, you should learn to be patient and tolerant. Who doesn't come here like this?Fortunately, she actually broke up with her husband's family with great fanfare.Since the righteousness is broken, it's fine to guard his own dowry by himself and live his life honestly. Why should he provoke Liu Jiaerlang?
It's fine if you provoke it, all men in the world are the same, they are all cats who can't help but want to steal when they see the fishy.The century-old family of the Liu family, the children of the family fell in love with a woman, so there is no need to make a big fuss, just bring it back, not to mention Luo Ming is like that, he can't even give birth to a child, and carrying it in is just a way to make the men happy Things don't bother anyone.When Liu Er mentioned it to his old mother, Mrs. Liu felt a little dissatisfied, but after all she was separated from her son for the sake of a woman, so she nodded and agreed.

But she didn't expect that the Luo family would be so shameless, and even utter wild words, saying that her daughter of the Luo family is not a concubine?A girl who has been married but can't have children and is not too young, does she still want to be the serious young wife of his Liu family?
Mrs. Liu was originally resigned and was willing to give a concubine status, but now she is not willing.Isn't it just a woman?This capital lacks everything, but there is no shortage of beauties. Even if Mrs. Liu chooses two beautiful maids for her son, it is in the name of letting him stop thinking about Luo Ming.

But men, those who can't get it are always in their hearts, not to mention that Luo Ming has inherited the beauty of Miss Gu's family back then, and she is also one of the most beautiful women in Shangjing.Liu Er kept chanting, Madam Liu's ears were callused, and she thought her son was worthless, so she twisted his ears and scolded him: "Your wife has only been married for a few years, so she decides to pay for you." Sanmen concubine, Sanmen concubine's room! She even gave birth to three sons, and she still doesn't care! How can the little lady of the Luo family be a good one? It's that girl from the Hua family. What's your identity? What's his identity? What kind of woman do you want, but you want to pick up the ones that others don't want and keep them in the house. Face?!"

Liu Ersu used to rely on being favored at home, and he was also a bastard. In front of his old mother and his daughters-in-law, he shouted: "Shameless, I want Luo Mingdu!"

Mrs. Liu was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.This is because Luo Mingdu is a rich official at any rate, if there is any cat or dog, if Liu Er fights against him for her, Mrs. Liu would have killed Luo Ming a long time ago.Mrs. Liu beat and scolded at home, but she still couldn't get rid of Liu Er's thoughts.In the end, it was Mrs. Liu Ershao who came forward and persuaded Mrs. Liu, saying that it is rare for the husband to love him, so let's let him in first.

Only then did Mrs. Liu let go, and agreed to let him in.She hated Luo Mingdu to the core, thinking that it was because of Luo Mingdu's instigation that Liu Er dared to disobey her mother for her.She also wanted to understand that her son was fascinated by this vixen, and he would not be able to wake up for a while. Luo's name is the daughter of the Luo family. In a word.

Therefore, she actively sent the big housekeeper in the mansion to come to Luo's house to ask for someone.

The Luo family didn't know Mrs. Liu's plans, but no one in the family intended to send Luo Mingdu to be a concubine, not to mention the attitude and tone of Chief Manager Liu today, who clearly looked down on Luo Mingdu Meaning, he didn't take Luo Ming seriously in his words.

"Although our Liu family can't compare with nobles like Zi Junhou's mansion, it is also a century-old family, and the others are nothing, but the face is the most important thing. Now if there is a trouble about the eldest lady of your mansion, everyone will face it. It doesn’t look good in appearance, Madam means, no matter what time you find, you can bring the eldest lady in the door, and then hold two tables of banquets, which can be regarded as the face of the two families.” The housekeeper Liu was flattered and flattered wherever he went. Naturally, Lang Fu didn't pay much attention to the small book, and his tone of speech was not very polite.

The second son of Li Lang and Shi Lang, as long as he can enter the gate of Liu Mansion, I don't know how many people are willing to pay for their daughters regardless of their status, what is the Luo family.

Luo Tian was so angry that he was half dead.Who said her sister was going to enter Liu's house?Saying that face is the most important thing, it means that Luo Ming has done something that disgraces public morals.God is sorry, her eldest sister is at home all day, and she rarely even goes out the door, so there is nothing worth talking about.

Fang's face was also angry, and said: "The chief steward, the Liu family is a big family, we really can't climb up the ranks, the chief steward, please go back."

It was the first time Steward Liu was treated so unceremoniously, and he was not happy. He said coldly, "Mrs. Luo, you should think about it. Don't say that our hometown is an official servant, even our second son has a bright future. , the eldest lady entered the door, although her status is a little lower, but the real benefits are not comparable to a warrior like Lord Wei. Mrs. Luo does not need to make a decision in such a hurry, it is better to wait for Lord Luo to come back and discuss it carefully. Yes." He felt that although Fang's words were polite, for the sake of future, even a courtier like Wei Que was willing to use his daughter to curry favor, let alone their Liu family.

Fang said angrily: "I can't think more clearly, no matter how poor and poor my family is, there is no need to send my daughter out to his father to change his future. You go, be careful that the child's father will come back and beat you in anger."

The butler was also angry. According to his past temper, he should have flung his sleeves and left Luofu without looking back when he received such cold treatment.I just thought that my second master had even disobeyed his wife at home for this Mrs. Luo. Before coming, the wife and the young lady repeatedly told him to persuade Luo's family to bring him into Liu's house so that the second master would not mess around at home.Therefore, he finally held back his breath and said: "It's not that the old slave speaks badly. The big lady is like this. If you marry someone and then return to your mother's house, it is difficult to choose a good one in Shangjing. Even if you marry again, it is mostly for people to fill in the house My young master loves the eldest lady very much, but the name is a bit short, but the other ones are not bad. Mr. Luo, who has been in poverty for ten years, certainly does not want to stay in the writing bureau for a lifetime, editing books for a lifetime. There are always some big ambitions, why is Madam so stubborn, even if she doesn't think about the eldest lady, she should think more about Lord Luo's future, offending the Liu family will not do any good to Lord Luo's future."

"Thank you for the kindness of the big housekeeper. We don't have any in the Luo family, but we do have the backbone of a scholar. If I only have the life of a writer in the future, then I will admit it. I am a man of seven feet and want to do something. It's also relying on one's own ability, where there is no reason to sell women for glory. Chief steward, please!"

But it was Luo Baisu who came back from the government office, just in time to hear a conversation between the chief housekeeper and Mrs. Fang, and immediately issued an order to evict the guest.

Luo Baisu made it so clear that Manager Liu couldn't hold back his face, and said, "Since that's the case, the villain won't say much, Mr. Luo, there will be a period later." After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves and left without looking back. go.
