Chapter 143: warm color

Lin Jinrong was particularly impressed with the year she was 16 years old, not only because she married into the Lu family that year, but also because of several things that happened that year.
First of all, Lu Yan did not take the exam that year. He had to go before, but it was Mr. Zhu Meng'e, who was hiding in the countryside, and suggested that he study for a few more years before going to the exam. He might get better grades. After all, Lu Yan was only 19 years old at that time. Life has just begun. At his age, countless people are still studying in academy, and many people have never tried before. It is more certain to study for a few years before taking the exam. This is a more conservative and pertinent suggestion. After careful consideration, Mrs. Lu supported Mr. Zhu's suggestion. So Lu Yan married, gave birth, went to school, and bereaved at home. He didn't go to the exam until she was 19 years old.
The other thing was Wu Xiang, who went to the exam with high profile. This Pingzhou child prodigy, Xie Yuan of Taiming Mansion,
Going for the exam with countless people's ardent gazes, but came back in despair. It's not that he didn't pass the exam, but that he didn't get into the exam room at all. It is rumored that he offended the son of the rich and powerful in Beijing. She is not very clear about the specific situation, but in short, it caused trouble. The Wu family elder and Wu Fang rushed to the capital and stayed in Beijing for nearly two months before bringing him back. At that time, Lu Yan specially set up a banquet for him to relax, and she had comforted him, but Wu Xiang didn't care, and didn't suppress it much. However, he passed the exam later and did well, and stayed in Beijing. As for how he lived in Beijing after that, she didn't know, except that he had never married before her death.
Next year is the year of admonishment. She should remind Wu Xiang to ask him to be cautious when he enters Beijing for the exam, so that he should not cause trouble? However, she didn't know exactly what happened that year.
Should I be reminded and how? These are all problems. Jing Jin allowed to fall into contemplation.
There was a sound of footsteps and laughter outside, and Miao Ya rushed in and said, "Grandma and they are back, madam, will you serve food right away?"
Dow said with a smile: "Serve food, serve food. Just like noon, the men's table is still placed here, and the women's family members are placed in the Dongkua Yard. Don't get confused. They are swift and have to go back. "
Everyone was in a hurry." Lin Jinrong escaped and walked to the gate of the courtyard, just in time when Lu Yan led Lin Shen in. Lin Shenzhi held a yellow thorny wild huā in his hand, which resembled a plum twig, and the huā color was yellow and bright. It was lined with a bunch of tender leaves that were shredded like jasper, with very bright colors. As soon as they saw her, they greeted her: "Sister Si, here you are. I gave it to you, take it back and put it in a bottle to look good. "
"Congratulations, you must study hard in the future, and don't bother your husband." Lin Jinrong took over and smiled, "You didn't pick it, right?" She has seen this kind of wild huā, who grew up on a relatively high cliff. Above it, based on Lin Shenzhi's age and skill," he could not have picked it at all, most of it was the hands of the servants.
Lin Shenzhi glanced at her, then looked at Lu Yan, and said with a smile, "I asked Brother Lu for help. It grows on the cliff. Does it match your clothes today? You must bring it home. Insert the bottle, don't disappoint my heart." There is still a hint of narrowness in his expression.
Although he is young, he knows things well and knows to make fun of sister. Lychee couldn't hold back,
He couldn't help but curled up his lips and winked approvingly at Lin Shenzhi.
Lin Jinrong was speechless for a while, couldn't help but glance at Lu Yan, but when he saw Lu Yan also looking at her, the two of them looked at each other, both were shocked. Lin Jinrong lightly led the head towards him, staggered his gaze, and touched Lin Shenzhi's head: "Go wash your hands and eat, don't get overwhelmed." Don't make trouble with Brother Lu. "
Then he gave the splendid wild huā in his hand to the litchi, turned and walked towards the west courtyard.
Lu Yan raised his eyes, but saw the Yingchun huā embroidered on the hem of her ivory skirt, swaying rhythmically with her pace, as if welcoming the spring huā in the spring in the wind, fresh and vivid, fresh and moving. He retracted his gaze and led Lin Shenzhi into the house.
Dow saw the two of them. He came out of his heart with joy, panicked and asked Lu Jian, "Thank you, and I will ask you to take care of your little brother in the future."
Lu Yan likes Dow's simple temperament with joy, anger and color. From the beginning, she was infected by her cheerful emotions. He couldn't help but smiled: "Aunty, it is my duty to take care of the seventh brother."
A son-in-law and a half, these words really touched Dow's heart, and he couldn't help but burst into a big smile: "I made your favorite peach peach huā fish, and I specially asked the Tie Huai family to leave a lot for you. Later, remember to let Longevity go to the kitchen to take it and take it to the academy to eat. It's when you are growing up, don't stay up late at night. You will be long in the future, reading is important, but your body is also important."
A warm color flashed in Lu Yan's eyes, and he got up to salute and thanked him. Dow hurriedly stopped him, and smiled: "Auntie should take care of his nephew." The two looked at each other and smiled, and there was a tacit understanding. Dow couldn't help it, and he whispered, "Your fourth sister has a weird temper these days. Girls of this age are a bit weird and shy. If she is rude, you too Don't worry about her, tell me, I will teach her."
Lu Yan was silent for a moment, then smiled: "She is fine."
Lin Shenzhi stood up, put it in Tao Shi's ear and whispered: ... Just now, Sister Si said hello to Brother Lu, and asked me not to make trouble with Brother Lu. "Even though she just nodded, she still accepted the huā at any rate?
, "Ghost and clever." Dow squeezed his little face affectionately, and exchanged glances with Gong's mother. After a long time, it will always get better.
As the sun sets, the distant mountains are full of clouds, and Lu Yan and Zhou Mai stand by the roadside, watching the Lin family leave.
After the last carriage drove out of sight, the two got on their horses and walked slowly along the Qingliang River towards Mr. Zhu's house.
The warm breeze in the evening brought a refreshing breath of river water. The white pear huā and pink huā petals were curled into the distance along with the clear river water. A group of half-aged children stood in the shallow water and fished with nets from time to time. There was a burst of cheerful laughter, and the setting sun shone their smiling faces and hair golden red.
Zhou Mai happily said: "It's so lively. Is this just catching peach fish?"
Lu Yan couldn't help but think of Lin Jinrong, who was squatting on the rocks in the river deep in Qingliang Mountain, smiling wildly in the spring of that year, and thinking of Lin Jinrong's unfamiliar and cold appearance today, a wave of sorrow came to his mind.
Suddenly I saw a few women walking over carrying a tub of clothes, and said as they walked: "Have you heard that the new woman named He from Qingliang Temple is in luck now, and the third wife of the Lin family is willing to give her thirty Consistent makeup and money."
"Wang's sister-in-law, your kid didn't say a kiss anyway, why don't you marry and go home? Just say it right away. Maybe you don't even want to hire money."
Zhou Mai heard clearly, and when the women passed by, he smiled and said, "Mrs. Lin San is very fond of doing good deeds. It's no wonder she brought up the calm temperament of the fourth sister."
Demure? Lu Yan couldn't help but smile to himself. Whether she is really demure or false demure,
In short, if her character is not bad, she will leave.
When he arrived at Mr. Dezhu's house, Lu Yan ordered longevity: "Send this peach huā fish to the kitchen. It is said that the third wife, in order to thank Mr. Tie, specially ordered Mama Tie to serve Mr. Tie's wine. No respect, just a little bit of heart. "
Longevity was agreed, and 1 Bu ran to send it. He came back soon and said, "I just met Mr., Mr. let the young master go there."
Lu Yan hurriedly adjusted his clothes and decorations, walked around a forest of apricot huā along the path paved with tiles, walked to a thatched house, and gently knocked on the door: "Mr." "Come in." Nian. More than half a hundred Mr. Zhu wore a half-old homely robe, sat under the lamp, and squinted the seal in his hand with a carving knife.
Seeing Lu Yan entered, he casually pointed to the yellow bamboo chair in front of him: "Sit down."
Lu Zhen sat cautiously on half of his ass, leaning forward slightly, ready to listen to his teachings at any time.
Mr. Zhu stopped his hands and looked up at his own cautious, but very hardworking student. He smiled cordially: "Little Qilang of the Lin family is not only your cousin, but your future wife and brother, right? Look at you Treat him well. I thought he was young and wanted him to send it back in two years, but for your sake, I set this precedent specially."
Everyone knows this marriage, but Mr. Zhu mentioned it for the first time. Combined with his behavior during the day, Lu Yan's face suddenly reddened and stood up and said, "Student"
Mr. Zhu waved his hand to him: "Sit, don't be restrained. This is a good relationship. The third wife and fourth girl of the Lin family have good names in this area. I just heard from the people below that Mrs. Lin San helped again. The woman named He in Qingliang Temple is the home of good deeds and virtue. That’s right."
Lu Yan heard him say two good things, and gradually relaxed: "Students will surely urge you to study hard, and you will live up to your husband's painstaking efforts." "Reading this kind of thing, I have come up with a point of view. Can read. You may not be able to read, and those who can read may not be blessed. Don’t force it. To teach these children to read and write, I just hoped that they could learn to be a human being.
Mr. Zhu smiled,
I’m looking for you. I want to talk to you about the imperial examination. How did you plan? Will you go for the exam next year?"
Hearing what he said, Lu Jian seemed to have something in the words, thought for a moment, got up and said, "I don't know what the sir mean?"
Mr. Zhu said: "I suggest you go to the test next time. Of course, it's not that you will not be able to get it if you go this time, but I don't think you will be sure of it. It is very likely that you will get it, but it is not satisfactory. If you spend a few more years Kung fu, you will definitely be able to enter the second class. You are still young, just beginning your life,
It's only good for you to sharpen your temper. Think about it yourself, and discuss it with your grandfather,
Come and tell me when you think about it. If you don't go, you won't have to write articles with Zhou Mai in the future. I will find a book for you. "
Lu Yan bowed a deep polite, and gently backed out. Back in [Room], I frowned when I thought of my bet with Wu Xiang. He knew that his talent was not as good as Wu Xiang, and he relied on hard work. Wu Xiang will definitely go for this exam. Will he be reluctant to challenge or slow down?
