Chapter 315
The next few days were spent going to various spring banquets. Li Shasha also sent a lot of things out, and of course gained a lot.Because Zheng Xianzhi was on duty, among the men, Li Zonghui went to the spring banquet. Li Shasha, Lei Guozhen, and Zheng Shi had to go to the inner courtyard of each family to have dinner every day. They fell asleep every day when they came back from exhaustion. .

Finally, the fourteenth day of the first lunar month was the day when the Pingnanhou Mansion invited a spring banquet, and many people came. Li Shasha also came over after seeing Ke Xiuming and Mrs. Du who hadn't seen each other for a long time.Li Shasha has always liked Ke Xiuming very much, but their family is very low-key. Mrs. Du may have a big gap in her heart after coming to Beijing, and she doesn't have much contact with the Hou Mansion.But when Li Shasha saw Ke Xiuming and Mrs. Du, she remembered that she wanted Mrs. Ke to design a Suzhou garden style for her back garden. The construction can start this spring, and then she can have a garden like that in her home. awesome!
So her special enthusiasm for Ke Xiuming and Mrs. Du made them feel a little uncomfortable towards Li Shasha.Li Zonghui in the front yard was also very affectionate to Lord Ke and Ke Xiufeng. After all, he was a doctor in the official department thanks to Mrs. Du's father, Du Shangshu. Li Zonghui was still very grateful, and he was very warm and thoughtful to the father and son.

Because Zheng Xianzhi was on duty, most of the guests who came were female relatives, and Li Shasha's girlfriends who had a good time in the capital all came over.Only Yan Ziyan sent a post and still didn't come. Li Shasha always thought that Yan Ziyan would come so that the brothers and sisters could meet each other. Maybe it was because Mrs. Jiang didn't let her come, maybe it was because she felt sorry for herself. Second brother, sorry to come here!

Because of the large number of people, Li Shasha handed over the reception of these girlfriends to Feng Wanfang, and she had to help Lei Guozhen take care of those wives.Fortunately, the chaotic day was finally over. After seeing off all the guests, the whole family was too tired to move.

On the day of the first prince's full moon, the emperor ordered the whole world to celebrate together, and set off fireworks at the palace gate at night.The princes and ministers of the third rank and above were in the Qianqing Palace, and the wives of the third rank and above and the wives of the palace gathered in the Kunning Palace to celebrate the full moon for the first prince.What Li Shasha gave was a cart that she asked Laosan Zhao to make according to the drawings she gave. The queen liked this gift very much. Later, when the weather was warm, she would often push the first prince to bask in the sun in the imperial garden.Unexpectedly, it is now very popular in Dachu. When those noble ladies saw the strange and practical cart, they all went to Li Ji's woodware shop to order after they returned.Li Shasha had to lament the effect of celebrity advertising, and Liji Woodenware Store made a lot of money with this trolley.

This day, Mother Hu came to look for Li Shasha. After Li Shasha sent Mother Hu to Xu's house, she would usually return to the Hou Mansion in three to five days to talk about Li Yulan's situation. There are many supplements that can replenish the body of pregnant women.Every time Hu's mother met Zheng, Li Shasha would secretly call her to Chonghuaxuan to ask about the Xu family's treatment of Li Yulan.The news I got was that since Li Yulan became pregnant, the Xu family has been very kind to Li Yulan, and they didn't let Li Yulan do everything like before, but really put her in bed to raise the baby as Li Shasha said.The housework was done by three women, Gong, Xu Baoqi, and Xu Baoqin, but Li Yulan usually did it alone, but the three women complained a lot when they did it. Only then did they know how much work Li Yulan had to do every day, It gave the three of them a chance to empathize.

Seeing the smile on Mama Hu's face, Li Shasha knew that Li Yulan was living pretty well there, so she gave two ginseng trees in the space for Mama Hu to take back.In a blink of an eye, it's February, and from the ninth day to the seventeenth day are the days of the exam.The whole family hoped that Xu Baoqiang could pass the exam this time just for Li Yulan. On the last day of the exam on February [-]th, Li Zonghui Muxiu happened to go to the Gongyuan to pick up Xu Baoqiang.The next day is the waiting time. It will take some time before the examination results are released. Candidates who come to Beijing to rush for the examination are like ants on a hot pot every day.

In March, boats were able to sail on the canal again, and Yan Zixi led the treasurer Qin, Master Cai and Chunyu to the south.This time, both Lei Guozhen and Li Shasha prepared several boxes of Four Seasons clothes and daily necessities for him, and Li Zonghui also prepared a box of pens, inks, papers and inkstones for him, hoping that he would not give up reading and writing.In terms of bank notes, Lei Guozhen prepared 5000 taels, and Li Shasha also prepared 5000 taels. Yan Zixi didn't accept anything, and Li Shasha persuaded: "It's our investment. Brother Xi will just give me a share. I believe Brother Xi will not let us down." Yan Zixi thought for a while, and there will be more places to use the money in the future, so he took the bank note back into his arms: "From now on, all these businesses will be counted as a share of the foster mother and younger sister. !" As long as Li Shasha accepts it, she can say whatever else she wants!

Zheng Xianzhi and Li Shasha sent him to Tongzhou Wharf, and it was not until Yan Zixi's boat was out of sight that Zheng Xianzhi and Li Shasha turned around and prepared to go back.But as soon as Li Shasha turned her head, she saw Yan Ziyan, whom she hadn't seen for several months. She hid in a corner and looked at the ship carrying Yan Zixi away, her eyes were already crying like two ripe peaches.Li Shasha could only sigh, stepped forward to support her and took out a handkerchief from the skirt to wipe her tears.Yan Ziyan looked at Li Shasha with tears in her eyes, and saw that she only brought a girl who was close to her, Li Shasha asked her to go back with her, Yan Ziyan followed her wishes and got into the car of Pingnanhoufu, and the girls sat in the back the empty car.

Along the way, Li Shasha didn't wait for Yan Ziyan to ask, and she talked about Yan Zixi's recent situation in detail, but she didn't say that those businesses were left before, but said that he wanted to leave the capital and go south to do business. .Yan Ziyan finally opened her heart and talked about Jiangxiahou's mansion. That day Yan Zixi went to Jiangxiahou's mansion to sign the final agreement, but no one informed Yan Ziyan. She only found out the result after everything was done. In this way, my mother and elder brother let the second elder brother leave the house.

Although Yan Ziyan knew that her second brother was not born to her mother, she felt that her second brother treated her better than her elder brother because of her affection since she was a child.She argued with her mother and elder brother, saying that she shouldn't be so cruel to her second brother, but the elder brother slapped her faintly.Although the Jiang family also beat Yan Ziyong later, Yan Ziyan had already stunned her elder brother, and since then she never talked about Yan Zixi in front of Yan Ziyong.Later, the post about the Spring Banquet in the Marquis of Pingnan came over, because Mrs. Jiang and Yan Ziyong knew that Yan Zixi lived there, and they were afraid that Yan Ziyan would be persuaded by Yan Zixi, and that Yan Ziyan would come back to make trouble, so Yan Ziyan was not allowed to go. Pingnanhou Mansion.

Today it was Yan Ziyan who secretly found out the news that Yan Zixi was leaving for the south today, and sent him off from afar.Because she felt that her mother and elder brother made her second brother look like this, Yan Ziyan felt ashamed to see her second brother, so she dared to watch him from afar.Li Shasha is also speechless to Jiang Shi and Yan Ziyong, so what's the use of covering her like this.

Yan Ziyan also said that the Jiang family had arranged a marriage for her. It was Wei Liangyu, the second son of the Ningguo family.It's just that Li Shasha doesn't know what kind of person this Wei Liangyu is, but Mrs. Jiang is also Yan Ziyan's biological mother, so she shouldn't harm her!For blind marriages in this era, you can only know what the other person looks like when you are in the bridal chamber, which is really scary!

If the matchmaker is cheated, and you find someone who is crooked and blind, you can only consider yourself unlucky.In fact, the appearance is second to none, and the most feared thing is the bad character, which is really harmful for a lifetime!Li Shasha remembered that her body will soon be 11 years old, and she probably won't be able to jump in a few years. No, she must let her family agree that the choice of son-in-law must be decided by herself, because this life is spent with that person. It wasn't that the adults in the family were with that person, Li Shasha made up her mind that she must sound the alarm for Zheng Shi and Lei Guozhen after she went back, and she couldn't marry herself off at will.

It didn't take long before the day when the exams would be released, Mrs. Zheng asked Butler Zhu to send a servant to the gate of the Gong Yuan early in the morning to watch the rankings.Several people in the family were also anxious, walking around the house.Finally, the young servant ran back to announce the good news: "Young master won No.10!" Mrs. Zheng waved her hand happily: "Everyone in the house will be rewarded with one tael of silver, and the boy who reported the letter will be rewarded with five taels of silver." The servant knew that there would be a reward, but he didn't expect it to be so much, so he was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Li Shasha didn't expect that Xu Baoqiang really had two talents. It's not bad that these 300 people got tenth in the exam. I just watched the palace exam for a few days, because the top ten who will take the exam still have a good chance of being selected for the palace exam. First class.Lei Guozhen prepared some congratulatory gifts and sent them to the Xu family in Baijia Hutong, so that Xu Baoqiang would have money to reward when he came to the palace examination.

After the palace examination, Xu Baoqiang accompanied Li Yulan back to the Hou Mansion while waiting for the day when the rankings would be released.Mrs. Zheng sent someone to inquire about the news early in the morning, and soon a servant came to report: "The old lady is overjoyed, my uncle has won the No. 1 biography!" Shi explained: "This is considered No.4!" Cheng realized that this was only one place behind her son's No.3 back then.Seeing that Xu Baoqiang and Li Yulan had stood up happily, they were going to report the good news back to the Baijia Hutong. Mrs. Zheng hurriedly asked Lei Guozhen to prepare some gifts for the two of them to take back.

While waiting, Li Shasha hurriedly pulled Li Yulan over and asked in a low voice, "How does it feel to be a Jinshi lady?" Li Yulan said with a smile, "What else can I do, I can only be very happy!" Li Yulan with a happy smile, I really hope that she can continue to be this happy forever.
