Chapter 568

Li Jiaoniang pinched the post and put it aside.

She picked up another letter and looked.

This is a letter from Hu Laoqi and Ximen Fei from Yuezhou City.

The letter was sent to Luo Cheng, and after Luo Cheng read it, he handed it to her.

Zhuangzi outside Yuezhou City is currently plowing in the spring, and everyone is fertilizing and planting the fields in full swing.

She was happy to see it, but suddenly sent a disappointing post.

Li Jiaoniang glanced at Furong Villa's post and said, "Who knows? Mrs. Hengyang's temper... I can't figure it out either."

In her previous life, Chai Yuxin abandoned her early on. In her memory, her biological mother, Chai Yuxin, was an indifferent person who didn't like to laugh.

At least, rarely smile at her.

Chai Yuxin will attend charity banquets, go to orphanages, and adopt stray cats and dogs, but she doesn't like to talk to her.

In her previous life, she lived with her grandmother and nanny.

When writing a composition, others describe the embrace of the mother, the smile of the mother, and what the mother does with her.

She can't feel these things, she can only describe how many clothes her mother has, how many jewelry her mother has, and how beautiful the photos are.

She can only see her mother's smile from the magazine.

As a result, when I was a child in my previous life, I always got low scores in my mother's essays.

The teacher's comment is that the composition is off topic.

Later, my mother simply disappeared without a trace.

Those people called Chai Yuxin's name and asked her to pay back the money, which made her dare not recognize this name for many years.

Seeing each other again after more than ten years in the previous life, she couldn't afford the slightest affection in her heart.

Li Jiaoniang closed her eyes and sighed secretly.

Lady Tian saw the sadness on her face, and said softly, "If the eldest lady doesn't want to go, let's not go?"

Li Jiaoniang raised her head and smiled, "Go. I feel that this banquet is specially for me. If I don't go, she will definitely not let me go. She wants to punish me, but some Method."

Lady Tian opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Ordinarily, others would be so happy to be favored by Mrs. Hengyang, but why is Li Jiaoniang so disgusted?

And besides disgust and disgust, there is also sadness and grievance.

Being favored and loved by Madam Hengyang, does Li Jiaoniang feel aggrieved?

Lady Tian really couldn't figure out what Li Jiaoniang was thinking.

"The banquet will be at the beginning of next month, and there is still half a month to prepare. The eldest lady can prepare her clothes and jewelry. There are so many people going that day, we can't let others compare." Tian Niangzi said.

Li Jiaoniang said, "I'm casual, just don't be too bad, if you're better than me, you're better than me."

If it was in other places, she would have to show off, but if she went to Mrs. Hengyang's place, she could do whatever she wanted.

She doesn't want to be too conspicuous.

Make up the numbers.

Mrs. Tian frowned, "Okay, I'll make arrangements here first, and then the eldest lady will choose a set she likes."

Li Jiaoniang nodded, agreeing.

……

The day after tomorrow is the lock hall test held by Emperor Gaozong.

This kind of exam is specially prepared for some officials' children.

The children of common people need to pass the state examination, provincial examination, palace examination, and upward examinations.

Some people may not be able to pass the exam for a lifetime.

You can't even pass the state exam, let alone the provincial and palace exams in the future.

If you can't get a Jinshi, don't even think about entering the officialdom.

And the children of officials and eunuchs do not need such examinations.

At a certain age, if you think you are knowledgeable, you can directly sign up for the lock hall test held by the emperor.

As long as it is not too bad, you can arrange an official position.

The top three will also be assigned important posts.

According to historical records, Lu You got No.2 and No.1 was Qin Xun.

However, in fact, Lu You was the number one. Qin Hui was not happy that his grandson was stepped on by others, so he found the person who graded the papers and insisted on changing Lu You to the second and his grandson to the first.

Li Jiaoniang was worried that Lu You in this life would also appear as recorded in the history books.

She couldn't tell others what happened to the later generations, so she could only remind Luo Cheng, and asked Luo Cheng to remind Lu You to be careful of the Qin family's tricks.

She hoped that Lu You would win, because Lu You was on Zhao Cong's side.

Luo Cheng also hopes that Lu You will win.

The exam is about to come, Luo Cheng went to Cao's house to find Lu You.

The Cao family also has children who are preparing to take the exam the day after tomorrow.

When Luo Cheng left, Mrs. Lu was ordering Tang to pack up.

Whether they win or lose, the Lu family has to go back.

After all, the Cao family is just in-laws, and they have been relying on it to make it difficult for Mrs. Cao, the Lu family's aunt, to handle housework.

Mrs. Lu didn't want to cause her daughter too much trouble.

"You came just in time. I was about to send someone to find you." Seeing Luo Cheng, Mrs. Lu said, "Let's talk alone."

Luo Cheng knew what Old Madam Lu wanted to say.

He frowned, not wanting to hear it.

The old lady Lu waved her hand and told all the maids in the room to back down.

She sighed and said, "You child, you are so stubborn."

Luo Cheng said lightly, "There are some things that I can't do without being stubborn."

The old lady Lu said, "You insist on going your own way just to get rid of your anger, but do you think about Jiaoniang?"

Luo Cheng looked at her, "In my heart, Jiao Niang has always been ranked first, and cousins ​​and grandmothers don't need to worry too much."

The old lady Lu shook her head, "I heard that in a few days, Mrs. Hengyang will invite the noble families in the city to the Furong Villa for a banquet, and she will also invite Jiao Niang."

"..."

"At that time, everyone will gather together to talk about their own men, and those women, at worst, are the wives of the fifth- and sixth-rank officials' families, and what about Jiao Niang?"

"..."

"How will she introduce her man? A farmer? A farmer? Are you afraid that others will laugh at her?"

Luo Cheng said lightly, "It's not a secret that I'm a farmer, do I need to announce it again?"

"..."

"If Jiaoniang really disliked her, she would have disliked her as early as last year. Cousin and grandma, you are too worried."

The old lady Lu sighed, then shook her head and said, "Mrs. Hengyang insists on recognizing Jiaoniang as her adopted daughter. If Jiaoniang agrees, as Mrs. Hengyang, Jiaoniang will definitely be sealed. At that time, your status will still be worthy of you." Going to the girl?"

Luo Cheng suddenly looked up at her.

Seeing that her expression moved slightly, Mrs. Lu immediately said, "You can't embarrass Jiao Niang just to satisfy your desire for revenge. You are acting selfish."

Luo Cheng stood up, "I will not embarrass Jiaoniang. Cousin and grandmother, there is not only one way to make Jiaoniang respected by others."

After speaking, he turned and left.

"This Luo Cheng!" Mrs. Lu sighed and shook her head.

Her dowry, Nanny Qian, said, "Let him go. Since he thinks so in his heart, he must have other ideas."

The old lady Lu looked out the window, "I can't control that much anymore, lead him to Lin'an City, and let him walk the rest of the way by himself."

Qian Momo said, "Look, Mrs. Li is a smart person, and she won't let Luo Cheng remain mediocre forever."

Mrs. Lu looked at her.

Qian Momo said with a smile, "Not only Mrs. Li, but also Prince Pu'an put pressure on him."

Old lady Lu said, "I hope so."

……

Luo Cheng left Mrs. Lu's residence, and Lu You saw him off.

Lu You said, "Thank you Cousin Luo for reminding me, but it's up to man to plan and God to make things happen. I'll just do my best. As for the Qin family's embarrassment, there's nothing I can do."

He sneered, "Isn't it the Qin family who have the final say in today's court?"

Luo Cheng said, "Third Cousin, don't be discouraged. Third Cousin also said just now that it's up to people to plan things and do things as much as possible. As for other things, Third Cousin doesn't need to worry too much. The Qin family may not succeed this time. "

Lu You looked at him and said in surprise, "Didn't you come here today to remind me to be careful of the Qin family? Why do you say that you don't need to pay attention to the Qin family?"

Luo Cheng smiled slightly and said, "I came here to remind Third Cousin, because I was afraid that Third Cousin would be discouraged and not give full play. If Third Cousin does his best and tries hard to take the exam, he will definitely win the first place."

Lu You said with a smile, "You are so worried about me and think of me, of course I will do my best."

Thinking of one thing, Lu You said again, "Cousin Luo, why don't you take the exam? I see your knowledge and have read some books. Why don't you want to be an official?"

Luo Cheng said, "Third Cousin said that only by taking an exam can one become an official?"

"Isn't it?" Lu You asked back.

Luo Cheng said, "For Jiaoniang, I may become an official in the future, but I won't take the exam."

"But how can you be an official if you don't take the exam?" Lu You asked him in confusion, "In Song Dynasty, if you want to be an official, you can only take the exam. Take the exam. Decades ago, several prime ministers were born in the imperial examination.”

"..."

"The children of officials rely on their kindness to make up for officials, such as me, and Qin Xun from the Qin family, or, do you want to donate an official?"
