Chapter 116:

The next day after the list was ‘Lu Ming Banquet’, in addition to the new recruits, the chief and deputy examiners, supervisors, and all inside and outside curtain officers will be present.
As for why it is called Lu Mingyan, it is reported that it was the emperor of a dynasty who invited the imperial examination students to attend the court feast of "deer" to show the emperor's graciousness and recruit talents. Deer have always been admired as immortal beasts, the image is a rare talent, the emperor is noble as the emperor, and ‘Ming’ means heavenly blessing, so the emperor is the East, and the imperial feast is called ‘Luming Banquet’.
It is also said that the deer is homophonic with ‘Lu’, which means merit and fame, and the entry of the new branch is the beginning of the career. The readers are always reserved and restrained, and they will be replaced by deer. In short, this Lu Ming feast is a feast to celebrate the new people.
Say it is a feast, in fact, the feast can not be eaten, mainly in a form. First, the chief and deputy examiners took the sages with the large and small curtain officers, and then the new judges performed gratitude to the examiners.
In fact, the main test is the main exam, and the rest are secondary.
Xue Tingyan wore a big red scarf, and the hat on the right side of the dogwood. Hairpin flowers are originally the customs of Jinshi and Ji, but in order to express celebrations, when new people go to Luming Banquet, they can also do hairpin flowers.
But only Xie Yuan can hang hairpins to show the difference.
A total of 70 new entrants gathered together to lead Xie Yuan. Yayuan followed, leading a group of new entrants, first saluting the examiner Huang Mingzhong, then the deputy examiner, and so on.
Afterwards, the banquet, the song "Lu Ming" in the song "Book of Songs", can be regarded as the name of this Lu Ming banquet.
In the hall, the piano is tuned, the sound of singing and dancing, and the red candle with long arms will shine like a day in the room.
"We Xie Yuanlang are really heroes." An official said to the people around him after stroking Xu.
This is not the case. The 16-year-old grandfather is extremely rare and can be called a genius.
Over there, Xue Tingyan is toasting the examiner.
Huang Mingzhong smiled and did not smile, took the drink and drank it, and said some words of encouragement.
It can be seen that he is in a bad mood. As for what is bad, then only he knows it.
Next was Ye Ju, the deputy examiner. Ye Ju also said some words of encouragement. When it was his turn to drink, someone inserted a sentence from the side: "Xie Yuanlang should thank Ye Ye for his talents. Lang, the name of Xie Yuan, cannot get it. "
When the other person said nothing, someone would say something to interrupt: "I think you drink too much, and then you will talk nonsense. This Yuanyuan is a young talent, and his merits are naturally handy."
The man was also aware of his falsehood, and he hurriedly ignored this matter.
Xue Tingyan can't pretend to hear it here, but he can't ask for specifics. He can only smile and give Ye Ju another salute: "The students thank the deputy examiner again."
Ye Ju supported him: "The court opened a new textbook to choose good talents, Xue Jieyuan is a talented person, and should be so, don't thank me."
Others should only be talking in the past, and only Xue Tingyan knows a lot about it. It seems that he can win this solution. It is probably what happened during the period, and what Ye Ju did from it.
After Lu Mingyan went away, everyone drank a lot of wine, and fortunately, there was a car ride, otherwise the news would come out the next day, anecdotes of newcomers who were sleeping on the streets.
In recent days, there have been many such anecdotes about this kind of testimony. Most of them were disappointed in the exam room, drunk on the street, or because of the shyness in the bag, they were kicked out of the blue building and so on. If there is an anecdote about a newcomer, that's fun.
After Lu Ming's banquet, there were some celebratory cocktail parties and tea parties, which were organized by the candidates or the new recruits themselves, but Xue Tingyan was anxious to return to his hometown, but he did not participate.
Everyone in Beilu Academy has parted ways since then, and went back to the academy to study harder, in order to come back three years later.
It will be held in February next year, also known as Chun Wei. It is now mid-September, and the road to Jingcheng is far away. It will take at least a month or two to travel on the road. When you arrive in Beijing, you will have to settle in. The time is very tight. Some new recruits are reluctant to toss, and some will go directly to the capital to go to the trial in February next year.
However, most people still have to return to their hometown to settle down with their loved ones.
Because the time was too late, Lin Miao did not plan to return to Xia County. He made an appointment with Xue Tingyan and others to go to the capital and returned to Beilu Academy.
As for Xue Tingyan, Mao Badou, Chen Jian, and Li Datian, they took the carriage back to Xia County.
On this road, the road is far away, and it takes at least half a month to get home, and the four people feel like arrows.
On Xue Tingyan's way back to hurry up, something happened in Yuqing Village.
Things have to be said before, since the two Wang Dazhi and his wife found out that the two children were chased away, they never appeared again.
I came here afterwards, but was driven away before entering the village.
The villagers didn't pay much attention to the words. When they heard that this was the sale of their daughter, now the ruthless parents who had to pull it back to sell it again, they all spurned and scolded again and again. There are those who are stern, and they are particularly unpleasant. They make them really mad and go home to have their children. Anyway, when they are born, they are used to sell. Who sells is not sold.
Scolded the two to hide their faces and fled, and haven't been here since.
On the other side, Xue Cui'e returned to the Zhao family.
Because she never sees people these days, she said she was going to dig wild vegetables and cut wood, but she could go out for a day, but when she came back, there were only a few wild vegetables in the basket and a few dry wood.
Does this seem to go out to work? So she was scolded a lot.
In particular, her little daughter is only a little over a year old now, when it is time to learn to walk and run around. Don't look at Hong's harshness towards Xue Cui'e, but the point is that Zhao Jinrui's first child and Hong's first granddaughter are naturally treasures of love.
But no matter how strange the child was, she couldn't bring it alone. In these days, Xue Cui'e disappeared from the sun every day, and the Hongs were so busy, so they hated what was a mother.
On that day, Xue Cui'e disappeared from the figure early in the morning. This time, he didn't even bring the machete and the back basket. Hong's found a circle around the village and couldn't find it. When he came back, he found his granddaughter's head broke and scolded her in the courtyard. Got up.
While scolding, Xue Cui'e returned with her face covered, and she looked very embarrassed, her face red and blushing. Someone who didn't know thought she had encountered something bad.
This is what Hong's thinks, if not for no reason why.
Her first reaction was not comfort, but asked what happened to Xue Cui'e. Xue Cui'e would never tell her what was wrong, and she could answer the question, and she knew she was lying when she heard it. This time Hong's was terrible. He jumped three feet high and shouted to the man to call his son, saying that Xue Cui'e had encountered a robber.
There can be any robbers in this rural area, but the left side just meets the bad guys.
The bad guys are naturally men. What happens to a woman who encounters bad guys, but if the other party wants to misbehave, Xue Cui'e will resist, and he will be beaten like this, maybe his body will also be stained.
As soon as Zhao Jinrui heard this from her mother, she immediately blacked her face and scolded: "You still have a face back!"
Uncle Zhao wanted to ask what happened, but how could he do this kind of thing as a heroine? He could only listen to my mother-in-law and son's scolding of me, so the reason why Xue Cui'e would look like this It was because she was forced by the bad guys.
Of course, there is also credit for the eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law of the Zhao family.
The Hongs were filling the house, and the two always hated the old demon for her father-in-law being bad for the first two sons, and usually did not trouble the two daughters-in-law. Now it's their turn to watch Hong's excitement, and naturally it's indispensable to fan the flames and add oil and vinegar.
Xue Cui'e has one mouth to four mouths, and even if she wants to tell the truth at this moment, the explanation is unclear. When I went back to my mother's house, she was blocked and came back, saying that she was deliberately deceiving.
Here, Zhao Jinrui became more and more angry, and grabbed Xue Cui'e and returned to the house as a beating.
With a little cry and exhaustion, the Zhao family was in chaos. Some villagers heard the news and asked. Under the publicity of the Zhao family's eldest daughter-in-law and second daughter-in-law, the story of Xue Cui'e's lack of virginity was spread throughout the village.
Xue Cui'e ended up with a hundred mouths and was dying by Zhao Jinrui. As soon as Zhao Jinrui came out of the house, Hongs said, "Have her a break, you must take a break!"
In fact, by this time, the Zhao family also knew that it was misunderstood, but the Hongs already hated Xue Cui'e, and now they are making such a fuss. Rumors are easy, and it is difficult to explain clearly. If you really leave Xue Cui'e at home, Zhao Jinrui becomes a green cloud in the eyes of outsiders.
However, Zhao's family was still very smart, and let Xue Cui'e stay at home to recover all the injuries before returning her to the Xue family.
As soon as Zhao's daughter heard that her daughter was taken off by her family, she fainted on the spot.
For a while, the Xue family turned around and asked the doctor to heal the Zhao family. When the Zhao family woke up, they faced the fact that their daughter was suspended. The Zhao family decided that Xue Cui'e was forced, so she must be laid off. During the period, the two Xue Qingbai brothers almost got into a fight with the two sons of the Zhao family. Fortunately, they were stopped by the two elders.
The two families sat down and talked about the matter. Even if Mr. Xue testified, the daughter did come back, the slap print on his face was beaten by him, and the attitude of Zhao's divorced wife was also firm.
However, Uncle Zhao also spoke softly and said bitterness, but what he said was taught by the Hongs. It's roughly that Xue Cui'e returned from Yuqing Village to be seen by the people in the village, and this rumor was only heard in the village. Now the matter can't be explained at all. Even for Zhao Jinrui's future, this wife must have a break.
What can Master Xue say, can he say he made the sin?
Take a break, the man wants to divorce his wife, and the woman can't stop it. Even if the relatives can be called to beat the men's house, the Zhao family is still there, not looking at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face. Besides, Grandpa Xue is also afraid that things will spread to Yuqing Village, and the Xue family will no longer see people in the future.
This family matter should not be closed from the beginning.
It was all the sins she made, and she could not blame others.
After a long period of bargaining, the two families reached the following agreement.
The Xue family brothers went to Zhaojia Village to make a scene, and the two partners performed a play, which meant that all these were misunderstandings, but because the Zhao family so defiled their daughter, even if the Zhao family came to the door, the Xue family would not Let the daughter come back. The Zhao family should divorce their wives, what should they do?
In fact, the show was played to outsiders. As for their respective sweets and bitters, then only you can taste them.
Xue Cui'e and Zhao's naturally protested, but this time Master Xue was very determined.
After the matter was over, Mr. Xue suddenly became more than ten years old, and since he gave birth to Xue Qingshan, Mr. Xue's body is not as good as before. He fell ill this time.
I would like to ask the doctor if I need to elaborate on the medicine. Zhao did not regret it. Others didn't know it. Anyway, the three bedrooms and four bedrooms were so busy that they were too busy.
But at this moment, another thing happened, something happened on the hill side.
The Xue family is now in an intimate relationship. In order to keep the baby clean, Zhao'er simply moved to Xiaotou to live with Zhao Di.
If she was still hesitant to move before, Xue Cui'e was taken home and she didn't need to think about it. The two have already torn their skins, who knows what will happen to Xue Cui'e if they live together.
The hill is clean, the environment is good, and far away from the bad things of the Xue family. Every day, Zhaoer had a very happy life, teasing his nephew to raise a baby, and the life should not be too beautiful.
Nowadays, everything about recruiting children is rich, and everyone in the village knows that no one knows that the famous Wang Ji Caixing in the county is opened by Zhao Er. As time passed, the small workshops were also well known, and there were young women in the village who came to ask for work. Anyway, the recruits are now short of people, so they pick the needlework well and stay to work.
They used to hide because they were too weak. With Xue Tingyan in the show, backed by the mountain of the Xue family, and the deterrent of the Xu county magistrate, if you want to be jealous, you have to weigh yourself.
But since ancient times, people who have money will be remembered, but no, they were robbed on the hill head that night.
This thief was not courageous. At first, he stole two chickens. Because there were many chickens on the hill, and the recent Xue family affairs, Zhou and Sun did not count, so everyone did not know.
Who had thought that this thief was getting more and more courageous, so he felt the room where Zhaoer lived.
The person was under the window, and he was held silent for a long time by the black son. The thief was so scared that he cried and yelled at his mother. Zhaoer, Zhaodi, and Aunt Gao all heard the movement.
Especially when recruiting children, he shoveled a shovel, pointed at the thief with his stomach upright, and started to fight if he didn't agree.
In fact, there is no way to recruit children carelessly, Gao Sheng is not at home, there are three women and a family on the mountain and a milk baby. Even if her sister is old, Aunt Gao is old, old, small, and she has some strength.
"Don't do it, don't do it, I'm Black Three."
Heigonglongdong couldn't see his face clearly, but the thief knew his name and reported his name. It was really that the shovel against his head was too scary. He felt that his head would be wiped out in the next moment. Originally, Hei San planned to run on his own as a man.
"Hei San? The courage is not small, stole my head!" Zhaoer sneered and asked Aunt Gao to take the rope and tie Hei San together.
"Sister Zhao, forgiveness, I was also confused for a while, and I couldn't pass the time at home before I was dizzy."
"Don't tell me, just talk to the patriarch later!"
Aunt Gao held the lantern and touched the black hill to call people. Hei San was thrown in the yard, and the two sisters Zhaoer entered the house. As for Kuroko, he has been squatting beside Heisan, intending to bite him if he doesn't agree.
Xue Qingbai and Xue Qinghuai soon arrived, together with Xue Qiang.
"Well, you are a bastard, I stole my sister's eyelid!" Xue Qiang's young boys came up with punches and kicks, and beat the black three to cry and cry.
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter? Hit him and forget?"
"Shut it up first and send it to the patriarch and Li Zheng there tomorrow."
Although Xue Qiang thinks that recruiting children is a little overkill, they have always been convinced that recruiting children has not said anything. So Xue Qinghuai saw the meaning of recruiting children. This time it was light, and next time someone must commit it again. Anyway, they are all folks in the village. Can you take me? Someone will definitely follow suit.
So Zhao'er is planning to kill the chicken and monkey!
The patriarch Xue always came to protect the shortcomings, and Hei San was a foreigner. Needless to say, he was naturally expelled from the village.
When I heard that he was going to be sent to Patriarch and Lizheng, Hei San, who was covering his head, couldn't pretend to be dead, and cried, "Sister Zhao's mercy, don't send me to Patriarch Lizheng."
Zhaoer shrugged his face and ignored him, but asked Xue Qiang to get Hei San locked up.
"Sister Zhaoer, I know that I am wrong. I really know that I am wrong. Don't send me to the patriarch. They must not be able to spare me. There is an old mother in my family. My mother can't stand this stimulation ..."
Seeing that Zhao'er was still unmoved, the black heart was disheartened, and was about to give up begging for mercy. Suddenly, there was a flash of light in his mind: "Sister Zhao, I have something to tell you, I know how the widow Xue died. I told Do you let me do it once for you? "
Zhaoer's eyes immediately looked over.
Hei San was happy and said what he knew.
