Fan Siwen was with the Xia family, and when he saw his son, there was no good face at all. He was still angry that his son missed the Shuji exam. In addition to the divorce, he felt that this old face had been thrown away.
Fan Zijin didn't care at all, anyway, his father was angry with him nine and a half times out of ten, and the only time he didn't get angry half of the time was probably because he was too good, adding infinite brilliance to his face.
So Fan Zijin directly ignored him and said to the Xia family: "Mother, my marriage is not in a hurry. You can make it clear to outsiders that I will not be an official." At least until his eldest cousin successfully became emperor, he was not interested in doing so. Da Zhou officials.
Xia was stunned for a moment, while Fan Siwen was furious, slapped the table angrily and said, "Nizi, if you don't become an official, what are you doing in the imperial examinations?"
Fan Zijin said eloquently: "I study for sensible reasons. I can't help it. I have no father's education. I can only study and learn to be a man by myself.
Fan Zijin said mockingly: "As for the imperial examination? I took the exam when I wanted to be an official, but now I don't want to be an official anymore."
Fan Siwen leaned back in anger, and pointed at him with trembling fingers, unable to speak.
Xia Shi looked tired, looked at her husband, and then at her son. Seeing that Zijin's eyebrows were gloomy, she felt distressed and guilty at the same time, she gritted her teeth and ignored Fan Siwen's roar to comfort her son: "Okay, I won't be an official. If I don't become an official, is it possible that my son will not be able to marry a wife if he is not an official?'
Fan Siwen was disappointed, looked at his red-eyed wife, then at his mocking son, and finally walked away.
Although the first-born son is excellent, he is too unruly. Although Zixiao is a shy son, he is a little stupid, but he is filial and obedient. Fan Siwen feels that it is better to place the hope of the Fan family on Fan Zijin than on Zixiao.
Fan Siwen definitely does not admit that the bigger reason for his decision is that he cannot control Fan Zijin and be the master of the other party.
Xia felt sorry for his son, and felt ashamed about his six years of running away from home, so he almost went all out to help him find a suitable wife.
The Xia family came to the door at this time.
Of course, the Xia family is very reserved, but they talked to the Xia family through a banquet, implying that they have an unmarried second daughter, and whether they can continue depends on the Xia family.
Actually, the Xia family didn't like Xiao Xia at first.
Although both sides of have the surname Xia, they are actually not related at all.
Father Xia is the prefect of the fourth rank, Fan Siwen is from the third rank, the daughter-in-law and the son-in-law are exactly matched.
But Fan Zijin has already said that he is not an official, but in the current world view, Fan Zijin is high.
Although Xiao Xia was coddled by the Xia family since childhood, not only did he not have the habit of being arrogant, but he was rather cowardly and had a soft personality, as if anyone could step forward and poke him.
The situation of the Fan family was complicated. Xia knew that her husband's heart was on the sidelines, and the servants of the Fan family were chasing high and low. That's right, Fan Siwen's concubines also have their own power in the back house.
For the sake of the son, as well as the daughter-in-law and future grandson, the candidate for the daughter-in-law must be strong and capable. For example, the eldest daughter of the right servant of the Ministry of Officials, her character is very suitable, and at least she will not be bullied to death when she marries Zijin.
Therefore, although the situation of the Xia family is the best, Xiao Xia excluded his family from the beginning and did not plan to contact him further.
But Fan Zijin took it upon himself.
After receiving the letter from his eldest cousin, Fan Zijin thought about his future seriously.
He was going to rebel with his eldest cousin, and if he failed, he would be doomed.
But if you win, you will have high officials and a good salary, so there are only two paths in the future, and there is nothing to think about.
But what about family?
Fan Zijin didn't want to live like his parents, quarreling every day for three days, for wives and concubines, for concubines, for all kinds of interests, seeing the harmony of the Mu family, and seeing Haoran and Mu Yangling's harmony, Fan Zijin thought, His future wife at least can't block him, can't make him even have no desire to go home.
He has enough things to do outside, but he doesn't want to quarrel when he comes back home like his father, so he shouldn't be exhausted?
So the question is, what kind of wife can he put up with?
Not bad, bear with it!
Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling both said, "Who can stand you in the future?"
Although he doesn't want to admit it, his temper is really not that good, but he is a genius. Fan Zijin thinks that a genius can tolerate more flaws.
Fan Zijin was emotionally sluggish, but there was nothing he could do. He was smart. He directly replaced the people around him. He thought, if Mu Yangling is his wife, then either he will die or she will die, but given the high value of Mu Yangling's martial arts And stupid, in the end he was more likely to be beaten to death by her.
Therefore, the force value is high and strong, and people with strong opinions are excluded by him, and such people cannot get along with him.
If it was a wife like his mother, Fan Zijin shook his head, and his mother was also very strong. If he married such a wife, he would go to the northern suburbs to play, but she had to go to the western suburbs. Although the last one was still the northern suburbs, but They must have had a fight.
Husband and wife are not brothers. The more quarrelsome he and Qi Haoran are, the better his relationship is, but he is definitely not with his wife, so people with a personality like his mother are also excluded.
The Wu family?
Snake-hearted, he was afraid that his children would either be raised crookedly, or that he couldn't help but kill each other...
Fan Zijin substituted all the women he had seen, and found that in the end he liked women like Aunt Shu the most.
takes her husband as God, what he says is what he says, he takes care of him wholeheartedly, raises children, is gentle and kind, is knowledgeable, and has vision. Although he is a little weaker, it doesn't matter, he can protect each other.
In a word, his future wife told him that the east must never go west, and he would never look north to the south.
Fan Zijin followed this standard among the girls selected by his mother, and finally found that none of them were suitable-because his mother's criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law was exactly the opposite of his!
Fan Zijin couldn't help but feel depressed. He slapped the table angrily and accidentally saw the invitation sent by the Xia family to the little Xia family.
Fan Zijin remembered what she heard when she went to see her mother yesterday and complained to her grandmother, "The girl in the Xia family is a good girl, but it's a pity she's too weak."
Fan Zijin took the invitation, turned around and asked Yanmo to check the Xia family, focusing on the little Xia family.
All Qi Xiuyuan's forces in the capital are in Fan Zijin's hands. It may be difficult for him to check others, but it is easy to check the Xia family.
Because Xia Zhifu had just brought his family to Beijing to report on his work, his foundation in the capital was unstable, and the family had hired some new servants in addition to some old servants, so it was easy to inquire about the situation of his family.
The information about the Xia family and the Xiaoxia family was quickly sent to Fan Zijin. Fan Zijin was very satisfied, not only for the Xiaoxia family, but also for the Xia family.
The Xia family really loves the little Xia family. In the past, in the local area, because Xia’s father was the prefect and one of the parents’ officials, it could be said that the whole city was complimenting the Xia family, but Xia’s father just didn’t choose a suitable son-in-law, because of his vision. too high.
What he wants from his future son-in-law is not a high official and rich family background, but to be good to his daughter. It is best to let the Xia family keep pressing on the other side, so that even if he has a bad heart in the future, the Xia family is with him. He didn't dare to treat his daughter badly.
In addition, you have to be in the wind, have extensive knowledge, and have no defects in character. It can be said that the starting point of everything in the Xia family is the daughter!
