Chapter 226

Mo Lingqiu smiled and said, "That's right, but he's still young, only over a month old, and you won't be able to see him until next year."

Shen Qiangwei exclaimed, "What a surprise!" Then she looked at Chen Jiu and said, "By the way, cousin, have you talked to grandma?"

"Not yet. Ling Qiu didn't feel well after they went out, so they don't know yet."

In fact, it was not because of any physical discomfort, but because he fainted when he was about to leave the house. Chen Jiu was so frightened that he sent him to the hospital directly, which is why he came so late.

Chen Jiu said with a smile: "Qiangwei, take good care of your cousin, I'll go and tell grandma." It also made several elders happy.

"I know cousin, so you can rest assured." Shen Qiangwei promised with a smile, and as soon as Chen Jiu left, she happily pulled Mo Lingqiu and said: "Cousin, let's go back to my room to chat go."

Gu Yao walked to the other side of Mo Lingqiu, said with a smile: "Sister Lingqiu, let's go back and talk."

"Okay." Mo Lingqiu said, and they went back to their room.

Because Chen Jiu told his family about Mo Lingqiu's pregnancy, several waves of people came in and out of Shen Qiangwei's room, all of whom came to care about Mo Lingqiu's physical condition.

It can be seen from this that the Chen family is really kind to Mo Lingqiu, and they don't intend to please Mo Lingqiu just because he was born into a family.

The betrothal gift from the man's family was delivered an hour after the meal, and the future groom also came with everyone, bringing a very generous betrothal gift.

Bidding cake, one load ([-] kg)
Three animals: two pairs of chickens, two males and two females, five catties of pork, flying in pairs (Xi Zhifei), that is, one piece is connected and two are opened to express rich and sincere respect.

Fish: dace, which means fishy (sound) gas, also means that there is more than one year with a head and a tail.

Wine: Four sticks, expressing strong love.

Four-color sugar: rock sugar, orange cake, wax gourd sugar and golden scallion, which means sweetness and longevity.

Incense cannon bracelet gold: incense (without bones and green feet), cannon (big firecrackers and cannons), bracelets (dragon and phoenix paired happiness bracelets).

Douermi: Twelve catties of glutinous rice, three catties and two taels of granulated sugar, which are used to make glutinous rice balls for the bride's family, in order to take the meaning of perfection and sweetness.

Seeing the betrothal gift, the people around nodded and said with a smile:
"It seems that the Kong family is very satisfied with Qiangwei."

"No, look at this betrothal gift, how rich it is, I think I am very satisfied with Qiangwei girl."

"Tell me, the dragon and phoenix bracelet must cost more than a dozen taels of silver!"

……

Gu Yao smiled and said to Shen Qiangwei who was blushing suddenly: "Sister Qiangwei, you are so embarrassed!" Look at this awkward posture, it is really rare to see!

"Yao'er." Shen Qiangwei punched Gu Yao shyly, then turned around and stopped looking out the window.

When the man came to give the bride price, the unmarried bride was not allowed to go out. Therefore, Shen Qiangwei could only watch from inside the room. He did this mainly because he saw the man from the Kong family just now.

I don't know if the other party saw him, oops, I feel quite shy just thinking about it like this.

"They are going to make glutinous rice balls, I'll go out and have a look, do you want to eat?" Gu Yao asked with a smile when she saw the people outside started going to the kitchen.

When it came to food, Shen Qiangwei immediately nodded and said, "Eat, of course." Although it was a certain time before lunch, he had already digested some food in his stomach.

"That's fine, I'll go out and have a look." Then he said to Mo Lingqiu next to him, "Sister Lingqiu, do you want it?" As for the other people in the room, they had already gone out when the man from the man's side came to give the bride price Went to watch the fun.

Therefore, there were only three of them left in the room.

Mo Lingqiu sat on the chair, crossed his hands on his legs, smiled slightly at Gu Yao, and said, "Eat, please, Miss Yao."

"No trouble." Gu Yao smiled and went out.

The man's family didn't stay for long, and left after eating the glutinous rice balls. After all, they also had something to do there.

Gu Yao returned to the room with the cooked glutinous rice balls, and said to Shen Qiangwei with a smile, "I saw your future husband, he looks pretty good, tall and strong."

Mo Lingqiu asked curiously: "Really, yes, you must be able to see it when you go out. By the way, Yao'er, what do you think of that person?"

"I feel good. He seems to be a very honest person who cares about both aunt and uncle." Gu Yao smiled, then her eyes fell on Shen Qiangwei's face, and she said in surprise: "Ah, Sister Qiangwei, you Why is your face red?"

Shen Qiangwei glared at Gu Yao, and said angrily, "Stop talking, eat glutinous rice balls, hurry up and eat glutinous rice balls."

Gu Yao and Mo Lingqiu looked at each other, and the next second, they laughed out loud.

Immediately, Shen Qiangwei was annoyed immediately, and rushed towards Gu Yao, shouting: "Sister Yao'er, don't laugh, don't laugh, if you laugh again, I'll get angry."

"Don't laugh, don't laugh." Gu Yao just finished speaking, and laughed again.

It's really a turn of events!

Before Shen Qiangwei laughed at Gu Yao's embroidery work, now it's Gu Yao's turn.

On this day, Gu Yao did not go home, but talked with her girlfriends all night in Shen Qiangwei's room. The objects of discussion were nothing more than what happened to men, or their yearning and imagination for future life.

At the beginning of July, the results of this year's scientific examination came out. Early in the morning, Yi Yaozu rushed to the county seat, because at this time of year, the county government will post the people who have passed the examination this year.

Since Yi Yaozu arrived late, the bulletin board at the gate of the county government office was already crowded with people, and the scene was quite noisy!
From time to time someone shouted:

"Let me go, please let me see if my young master has won?"

"My son has won, won."

"There are really few people this year, and there are at least a dozen in previous years."

"Tsk tsk tsk, that's great. They've all passed the examination as a scholar, and those who have land in their families can be exempted from taxes."

"Who said no? My son is going to take the exam next year. I really hope he can pass the exam!"

……

Yi Yaozu listened to what those people said to each other, he was anxious in his heart, he didn't know if his son had been hit, so thinking of this, he hurriedly squeezed into the crowd.

He still said: "Let me go, let me go, let me see if my son has won?"

When the people around heard that this person might be the father of the future scholar, they quickly moved out of the way.

Yi Yaozu successfully squeezed into the crowd, came to the bulletin board, looked at the names on the paper, and laughed immediately.

"My son, my son, you can see that my son has won." He said happily, pointing to the third name on the paper.

When the people around heard this, they congratulated quickly.

"Oh, congratulations, you will be the father of Master Xiucai from now on."

"No, look at this age, how do you say that word? Oh, young and promising!"

"Congratulations!"

……

Hearing the envious tone of the people around him, Yi Yaozu was so happy in his heart, he straightened his back immediately, and walked out of the crowd with a proud face.

Then he went to the grocery store to buy some sugar and firecrackers, and hurried home. He had to go back and tell everyone the good news, so that everyone could see that his son was promising.

The province speaks bad things about him behind his back all day long, and see if those people dare to say it again in the future.

In the old house of the Yi family, Mrs. Yi Zhou sat in the courtyard and looked towards the door from time to time, her face was full of tension and anticipation. She wondered if her grandson was a hit?

It should have been hit, after all, Brother Hou Min looked quite confident when he left.

"Mother, just in case." Before Yi Wang finished speaking, he was beaten by Yi Zhou with "Oh."

Yi Zhou looked at Yi Wang with dissatisfaction on his face and said: "What are you yelling about? Our Min brother is so powerful, how could he not win? He knows nonsense all day long."

"Mother, I'm just worried." As soon as Yi Wang raised his head, he saw Yi Zhou's raised hand, stopped talking immediately, and changed the subject: "This Yaozu has been away for so long, he should come back .”

"It's time to come back!" Speaking of Yi Yaozu, Yi Zhou became nervous again, looked at the gate again, and saw Yi Dahai walking in from the outside, feeling dissatisfied immediately.

"It's so early in the morning, where did you go? Have you forgotten what day it is? Every day, there is no one to make me worry." He rolled his eyes in disgust.

"My Lady." Before Yi Dahai could speak, he heard a cry from outside the door, listen carefully, it was Yi Yaozu's.

"Hey, Yaozu is back." Yi Zhou quickly stood up, walked towards the gate, and saw Yi Yaozu running from a distance, "Yaozu!"

Yi Yaozu quickly ran a few steps, came in front of Yi Zhou, and said with a smile: "Mother, I got it, I got it, Brother Min has passed the exam, and I will be the father of a scholar from now on."

When Yi Zhou heard it, he immediately clapped his hands happily, and shouted: "Oh, I knew that our brother Min is the best. Look at it, isn't it right?"

"Yes, yes, our brother Min is the most powerful, oh, it is really blessed by the Bodhisattva, and I finally got hit." Yi Wang clasped his hands together happily, bowing on one side and on the other.

Although Yi Dahai didn't speak, the expression on his face showed that he was very happy in his heart.

"Yaozu, have you bought the firecrackers?" Yi Zhou said to Yi Yaozu after getting excited.

Yi Yaozu picked up the firecrackers in his hand and said with a smile: "I bought it, I bought it, and I bought candy."

"Oh, put it up quickly, put it up." Let everyone in the village see, she will be the old lady of the official family in the future, and everyone from Gu Yao and Yi Jiang will stand aside.

"Crackling." The loud sound of firecrackers immediately attracted the attention of the people in the village, and they all gathered around.

"Hey, Mrs. Yi Zhou, what good thing happened to you? You even set off firecrackers."

"It's really rare to see a person who is so picky, but is willing to buy firecrackers!"

……

Yi Zhou was in a good mood and didn't get angry with them, and explained with a smile: "Our brother Min has passed the exam, let's have fun together!"

The people around were surprised when they heard it.

"Brother Min actually passed the exam as a scholar."

"Congratulations, congratulations, your Min brother finally passed the exam."

"When did this pass the exam and treat us to a drink?"
