Xu Nuoyan took out Yang Erdan's letter and smiled, "My husband asked me to go with you, and I also wanted to take Xiaoya with me. He said that there was a big problem in Beijing, and Xiaoya and I were asked to go over and help, but Before that, I have to go to Ping'an County first and then to the capital."
When there are two Jinshis in the family, they always have to go back to the village to announce the good news, and by the way, they go to Yang Han's house to propose marriage to Yang Santie.
Mrs. Zhou nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay! Then I'll go with you and go to Mapo Academy to give thank-you gifts to Mr. Ming and the others, as well as some old friends from your father's **** agency who have helped us before. I have to take a trip too.”
She had a hunch that after going to the capital this time, she would never return to Ping'an County again in her life.
Yang Xiaoya knew that they were going back and expressed that she would go to see Old Man Yang and Mr. Li together.
She is already the eldest, and her marriage will be discussed in two or three years. She still doesn’t know where she will marry in the future. It’s okay to be in Quzhou Prefecture, but the possibility is not high. After all, her eldest brother’s family is in the capital, and the second brother has now become a Jinshi. It is unlikely that he will stay in Quzhou Prefecture for a lifetime, let alone the third brother. That is the wind, and he can't catch it. Even if he marries Sister Xiaohua, he will still run around in the future.
Not to mention the fourth brother, his goal has always been the capital, and now he is still studying hard in the academy, aiming at eldest brother Xu, even to the point of forgetting to sleep and eat. With his enthusiasm, it is only a matter of time before he goes to the capital.
The brothers have all gone to the capital, and my grandma will most likely go there in the future. If she was given a choice, she would prefer to marry in the capital. In that case, the chance of meeting her grandpa and grandma would be slim.
After everyone discussed it, they immediately asked Butler Zhu to pack their luggage. Zhu San made a special trip to Quzhou Academy to find Yang Sizhuang.
Yang Sizhuang came back in a hurry and bought a lot of snacks in the city. "Second sister-in-law, little sister, I want to study, so I won't go back. If you don't come back this year, I will go back to the village to see my grandma and grandma during the Chinese New Year. They celebrate the New Year.”
Xu Nuoyan smiled understandingly and said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. My husband has already said that you are very knowledgeable and have a stable mentality. It will only be a matter of time before you win the exam.
Your second brother is probably on his way back. During the Chinese New Year, you brothers will go back to the village together, which will make it more lively. I have arranged everything in Zhuangzi. With Butler Zhu here, you can just study in peace. "
Xu Nuoyan explained everything in detail like a serious elder.
“Thank you, second sister-in-law.” Yang Sizhuang bowed again.
Yang Xiaoya took out the clothes she had made for Yang Sizhuang and gave many instructions.
Yang Sizhuang held the baggage in his hands and said goodbye to Yang Xiaoya.
The creaking wheels rolled across the steaming ground and sped along the smooth official road.
Because of the Dragon King Temple incident, several more official roads were built from Fucheng to Ping'an County, which greatly shortened the distance between the two places. Xu Nuoyan and others reached their destination without much trouble.
The magistrate of Pingan County received the news early and sent people to respond outside the county seat.
Although Xu Nuoyan was in a hurry, he had to go there and say hello to the county magistrate. Then he dropped off Madam Zhou and Alan, leaving a carriage and two guards for them.
Mrs. Zhou took Alan directly to the **** agency
The Yang family's carriage left the county town and rushed all the way to Dashan Town, arriving at Rongshu Village just before dark.
The days are long in summer and the evenings are cool. Most villagers will go out for a walk in the evening, sit on the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village and chat, and see the mighty carriages approaching.
The villagers stood up one after another, raised their heads and took a closer look.
After a while, someone shouted excitedly, "It's the carriage of the big head's family! It's their family who's back!"
“Yo! So many carriages, so many people! What a huge battle!” an old woman exclaimed.
Some people in the crowd immediately hurried to the village, "I'll go tell Uncle Jiang!"
The quiet village suddenly boiled. After the carriage entered the village, Xu Nuoyan got out of the car with the jade bracelet and greeted the villagers, asking the driver to take Yang Xiaoya directly to the old house while the others went back to the east of the village to wait.
The villagers were a little afraid to talk to him when they saw the promise made by him who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a noble temperament.
It was only after Xu Nuoyan took the initiative to talk to them that they gradually relaxed a little.
Ms. Zhang's eyes were burning and she asked excitedly: "Erdan's family, why didn't your mother-in-law come back with you?"
Xu Nuoyan smiled gently and said, "My mother-in-law is in the capital. We are also coming back this time to see my grandma and I will go to the capital to join my mother-in-law."
"What? Didn't your mother-in-law give you all the Zhuangzi in Fucheng? Are you going to the capital too? What about the Zhuangzi in Fucheng?" Ms. Zhang was very surprised and her voice was loud.
Old man Yang and Mrs. Li who came over happened to hear this and couldn't help but become anxious.
Li hurriedly ran to Xu Nuoyan and grabbed her hand, "Why do you want to go to the capital too? What's so good about the capital? It's so nice in our Quzhou Prefecture! Even the prefect has to be polite to you. !”
Mr. Li was more reluctant to part with her. Both of her eldest brothers had left. If she could still think about them in Quzhou Prefecture, if she went to the capital, she would never see them again.
Xu Nuoyan saw that Mrs. Li's mouth was flat and her eyes were red, and she wanted to cry or not, so she immediately coaxed: "Grandma, it's not that grandson's daughter-in-law has to go, it's that my eldest brother won the first prize, and the emperor also betrothed Princess Yongyang to him. Now I My mother-in-law and I were both in Quzhou Prefecture, and no one was planning the marriage. The whole thing fell on my mother-in-law, and she was too busy, so she wrote a letter asking us to hurry over. "
"What? You said your eldest brother has become the number one scholar?" Li's voice suddenly rose, and she staggered on her feet because she was so excited.
Other villagers were all in a panic.
"Ouch! Oh my God! Your eldest brother actually became the number one scholar! When your family came to our village, I said that the young man looks like Wenquxing has descended to earth! It is indeed Wenquxing who has descended to earth!" an old woman praised exaggeratedly.
Others also kept saying good things.
Old man Yang looked proud, "Not bad, not bad. Since the in-laws are very happy and want to marry the princess, you must go and help. This is what you should do!"
Mr. Li didn't feel uncomfortable now, but smiled so hard that her teeth couldn't even see her eyes.
Seeing them like this, Xu Nuoyan hurriedly said to Yang Laosan: "Third uncle, please support me a little bit."
Old man Yang waved his hands repeatedly, "It's okay, it's not dark yet, I can see, I don't need anyone to help me."
Xu Nuoyan covered her mouth and snickered, "Master, I have some happy news to say! This time Erya's husband also went to the city to take the exam, and he won the Jinshi!"
"What? Then isn't that Erya a wife of an official?" Zhou was dumbfounded and was stunned.
Xu Nuoyan nodded.
Ms. Li was so happy that she cried, "Good! That's great! That child's suffering is finally over!"
"That's not all!" Xu Nuoyan changed the subject, whetting everyone's appetite. "Apart from them, our Erdan and Santie are also gone!"
Li suddenly grasped the hand that made the promise, her heart was beating wildly, and she felt her throat was dry, "What's going on?" (End of this chapter)
