There is a home in the depths of the white clouds

Chapter 194 Dormant

People from the Wu clan also came, because they saw that Wu Ying had married a good wife, but the Wu Sun family stopped them from entering, saying that the clan had already been divided, so it had nothing to do with them.

The angry Wu clan made a fuss, and it was the nursing home where Wu Ying brought his daughter-in-law as a dowry to drive them away.

There is a lot of blood in the rich and powerful families, and the people around are talking about it.

And Mrs. Wu's funeral...was extremely grand, but unfortunately, the Wu family's big house collected a lot of ghost papers, not a single copper coin.

But when he was buried with Mr. Wu, the problem came.

Mr. Wu was buried according to the rules of the fourth-rank official position, but when Mrs. Wu arrived, she had no rank or rank. She was just an ordinary old lady. It was not in accordance with the rules to be buried together!

In the end, he had no choice but to bury Mrs. Wu next to Mr. Wu's tomb, and build another grave. Compared with Mr. Wu's luxurious tomb, that poor little earthen bag was simply indescribable.

But Wu Youwei felt relieved.

When he was buried, it happened to be March in Yangchun, the time for the Beijing-China General Examination.

Wu Sun said to Wu Youwei viciously, "I've delayed you!"

Hehehe!

The titular aunt passed away, and she kept her filial piety for three years, will she try?What will you try?

Wait another three years!

"No one wants it!" Wu Youwei was even more irritating: "Anyway, I have poor qualifications and a weak foundation. It doesn't matter if I wait another three years."

While talking, he purposely glanced at Wu Ying: "Qingyu will be afraid in this life... Alas, good luck tricks people!"

Wu Ying is the older brother of the abolished empress. Even before the abolished empress, he...had never passed the imperial examination!

Now they are all abolished, but Wu Jun was sentenced to beheaded. After he was a guilty minister, the imperial examination was blocked, at least not within three generations.

Wu Sun's family was choked by Wu Youwei, and her chest felt tight and painful: "I don't know what will happen after three years!"

After three years, you will be able to pass the test?

Wu Youwei said: Brother, there are people above!

After the funeral, Wu Youwei took the people away without any delay, and he wanted to go back to Mo Ling Villa.

And what he didn't use, he gave Luo Lun to use. This time, only Luo Lun went alone, Zhang Sheng and Yang Yiqing didn't go, and Wu You.Because .... did not go into.

In the first day of March, Luo Lun and other Jinshi were awarded the ranks, and their backgrounds were poor.

Wu Youwei was in a hurry to go back because he would pass by the capital, so he calculated the date and happened to be able to see the top three parading the streets.

However, the so-called top three parades in later generations are now happening before our eyes.

Central Beijing is always lively, but the most lively place is right in front of you, on the Yinding Bridge, crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, a sea of ​​people gathered together.

"Praise officials on the imperial street" is also called "praise officials on the streets".

Scholars who passed the Jinshi examination or when officials were promoted would parade through the streets with drums and music guards of honor, which was called "praising officials".

After the Shang and Zhou dynasties, in the Tang Dynasty, there was no boasting of officials, and all of them were paraded in the streets.

In the ancient imperial examination system, after the examination of the champion of the new department, officials from the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rituals held the imperial decree and blew the gong to clear the way. Accepting the congratulations of the people, because there is an imperial decree from the emperor, no matter what officials, they must kneel down, kowtow to the imperial decree, and shout long live.

Following the No. [-] pick are No. [-] and Tan Hua.

The purpose of the parade is to motivate students to be self-motivated, to encourage them to study actively and take part in the imperial examinations.

But there are also different opinions. Some say that those who have this honor are the top three, and some say that even new scholars can praise officials.

But in fact, after walking through the Imperial Street, only the number one scholar can enjoy the treatment of being escorted home by the umbrella cover instrument. As for the rest of the Jinshi, they have to go back to their own homes.

Kuaguan is actually a street tour, and the tour is still the Royal Street, that is, only the emperor can walk that road.

It actually means that the emperor passed the roll call in the Golden Luan Hall, hand-picked the No. [-] scholar, No. [-], Tanhua and Scholars. After the No. [-] scholar led the Jinshi to thank the emperor for his kindness, he had to go to the left gate of Tianan to watch the process of posting the golden list and returning home.

Wu Youwei only saw the top three parading the streets, all of them were... young.

Luo Lun is the No. [-] pick, and the second place is more mature, while Tanhua is much more handsome.

Wu Youwei squeezed with others and left after watching the fun. It's not good to stay in Beijing for too long.

After returning to Mo Ling Villa, Butler Lin Su collected the presents, intending to send them to celebrate Luo Lun's high school champion.

Because Luo Lun is currently living in the master's house, it is inconvenient for Wu Youwei to wear mourning, so he added 500 taels of silver to the gift for Luo Lun to use for human relations.

And because Luo Lun came from a poor family and was afraid of being looked down upon, Wu Youwei specially chose low-key, durable and strong cloth from the palace to make two clothes for him; All kinds of gadgets carved on weekdays.Anyway, it was sorted and sent over.

Then Luo Lun asked the little wood Li Xiang to come over: "Our master said that he has been too busy recently, and there is a filial piety in the family that it is not appropriate to collide, but he remembers you. He missed the exam for this subject, and he will definitely be in high school next time."

He also brought him a letter written by Lauren, and the friendship in the letter was almost vivid on paper.

Luo Lun was really grateful to Wu Youwei, if it wasn't for him, it would be unknown if he would be the number one scholar in high school.

When he came back, others who were inconvenient to come to the door also sent messages, but Wantong had no taboos, so he came to the door directly.

And in a very special way!

He... came here in the middle of the night!

As he fell asleep at night, Wu Youwei's mouth felt a little dry. The climate is dry in spring.

He opened his eyes and wanted to get a glass of water to drink, he didn't need a night watch here, and Xiao Xiao didn't keep a watch for him, so he lived in the ear room next door.

So if you want to drink water when you are thirsty, you have to do it yourself. He simply has everything in this room, and there are teapots and teacups on the kang table.

As long as you can touch the flint with your hand, pour water and drink after lighting the wax, and then blow the lamp.

But he finds it bothersome, and usually sucks in the dark while holding the teapot to his mouth...

Unexpectedly, as soon as I opened my eyes in the dark, taking advantage of the faint moonlight outside, I found someone sitting on the edge of my kang, looking at me with eyes as bright as cold stars, and Wu Youwei was so frightened that he rolled up and almost screamed How about making a sound!

At the last moment when the scream was about to exit, he saw clearly that the man was Wantong!

Wu Youwei woke up so suddenly, opened his eyes and got up, startled Wantong who was sitting on the edge of the kang, and almost fell to the ground.

Wu Youwei looked at the very familiar handsome face, heaved a sigh of relief, and said in shock, "Brother Zhongming, what are you doing squatting beside my kang without sleeping in the middle of the night? You scared me to death!"

I didn't think it before, but now I find that Wantong always likes to come to him in the middle of the night, but that's just to scare him, unlike now, staring at people while they are sleeping.

Look at Wu Youwei's heart fluttering!

Wantong didn't expect that Wu Youwei would suddenly open his eyes and wake up, and he was caught!

He couldn't help but feel guilty, but still subconsciously snorted coldly, and retorted stiffly: "Sleeping so hard, an assassin will see what you can do!"

Wu Youwei was left speechless for a while by these words: "Who is going to assassinate me?"

He is not a rich man, nor is he a high-ranking official, or an assassin?

When did assassins become so worthless these days?

"What are you doing here now?" Wu Youwei poured himself a glass of water to drink. If there was moonlight, he didn't want to be too rude in front of Wantong, sucking something on the teapot spout...

Wu Youwei drank all the water, trembling, and planned to listen to Wantong's reasoning, but Wantong kept silent for him!

After a while, Wantong thought about the reason before he said, "Come and see you.

Wu Youwei lay back under the quilt: "I see, I'm fine, it's just that I can take the exam next time."

"Don't you mind?" Wantong would have been depressed if he had changed.

"Everyone is dead, I don't mind if she can't be resurrected." Wu Youwei yawned, confused for a while, and lifted a corner of the quilt: "Would you like to come in and sleep?"

His words were purely unintentional, but Wantong trembled... Okay.

You invited me in yourself!

"Hmm..." Wu Youwei is a standard person who "drowsy in spring, sleepy in autumn, sleepy in summer". Vantone came in and fell asleep as soon as he lay down, and then.... Wantong became a pillow again.

Wantong's eyes didn't feel sleepy at all, and the people around him were snoring very rhythmically. He reached out and touched the other's arm. He knew that he exercised every day, but no matter how hard a literati exercises, he can't. that's it.

Wu Youwei was embarrassing again the next day. He was still wearing Jinyiwei costumes, such as humanoid pillows, Alexander!

But in the morning everyone saw that Mr. Wan was still very calm, he came and went without a trace, and everyone was used to his elusiveness.

It's just that I didn't expect the master to stay at home and keep his filial piety behind closed doors, and the adults would come to the door, so I didn't shy away from it at all.

After Wu Youwei had breakfast and asked Wantong to stay at home, he took someone to the second room.

Is Wu Mengshi really sick?

No, Wu Youwei didn't let her go.

Wu Sun must want Wu Meng to go, so that she can rub people.

And Wu Youwei was not interested in asking the second sister-in-law to rape the elder sister-in-law, and the second sister-in-law herself didn't like her mother-in-law, so she died as soon as she died.

She didn't go because the second room wanted to hide!

The first family member of the Wu family still doesn’t know that the second room is actually in Wu’s village, because Wu’s village is too small, people know each other, there are gates and walls, it’s not easy to get in and out, and it’s difficult to spy on them.

So as long as you don't go there, anyone who wants to find a second room can't find it.

Wu Mengshi came out to meet Wu Youwei and hugged Wu Li'er. The little girl could talk now, so it was easy to call her uncle, she was so cute.

Wu Youwei also likes her, and every time he comes here, he brings some gadgets for her to play with.

"Things over there are almost the same, Dafang doesn't need to pay attention to it." Wu Youwei went this time, and he really saw Dafang's loneliness.

How particular is the Wu family?

During the funeral, even the little concubine could come out to point fingers, and the day lily has changed, become sharper, and become more fussy. Of course, it is not aimed at Wu Youwei, but at the daughter-in-law Wu Ying married.

But the family used the name of "raising fetuses" and didn't show up at all. They were all servants working. At that time, the day lily was making a fuss, so two nuns came, pressed the day lily there, opened their mouths, and beat When it was over, people left, Wu Ying didn't say anything, what could he say?

The head is all green, what else can I say?

Wu Youwei came back so soon because he didn't want to look bad.

"In the past... she was such a troublesome one..." Wu Mengshi sighed when she thought of Mrs. Wu, death is nothing.

No matter how hateful it was back then, now that everyone is gone, she didn't go, it was considered a bad breath.

"Qiong'er is already nine years old. Let him take the Tongsheng Examination next year, and the Imperial Examination at the age of 12. At the age of 12, you can see more..." Wu Youwei said: "The child has been raised well in the past two years. Once raised, your health will be good in the future, so you won’t have to suffer during exams.”

Today's literati are different from the first kind of literati. They are all weak. He knows the benefits of exercise only by exercising himself.

If Lauren hadn't been accompanied by him, he wouldn't have been able to be so alive after the exam.

"Okay!" Speaking of her son, Wu Mengshi was happy: "His uncle also said that the child is promising."

There was even a sister who wanted to give her daughter to Qiong'er, but was declined by Wu Mengshi. She wanted to find a daughter from a high-ranking family who could support her son's backyard in the future, so she wanted her son to be an official at least. You can't get married before, and you can only do it after the big entrance examination in the future.

It's not good to set too early, just look at Wu Ying.

Wu Youwei met Wu Meng's, and went outside to see the construction of Wujia Village. The Wujia Village was almost built, and he asked people to build three houses in Xinglin, all of which were standard three-entry courtyard houses. , Reflected in the apricot blossoms of the trees, very elegant.
