MTL - The Landlord And His Wife-Chapter 216 : Examiner

Liu Xuer got up and went to the wing room. The two large cabinets and a large box in the room were all open. She had seen it a few days after she got married, but she didn’t know what was inside. When I opened it, I was shocked! One of the two cabinets is full of new clothes of various materials and colors, and the other is filled with more than ten horses of silk.

A layer of emerald, a layer of pearls and ivory.

Shi Cheng smiled and said: "How? These are all yours!"

Liu Xuer looked a little stunned, and said: "Why... so much? How long does it take for me to wear these things again and again?"

Shi Cheng laughed, came over and hugged her from behind, and watched with her: "In the past, when I saw you have a hard time, I felt very uncomfortable, always thinking that I can quickly marry you. Come here, I will prepare everything for you to eat and wear, and you don't lack anything... Well, this is my dream since I was a child, and it is also my goal in the future!"

Liu Xuer was so moved that she was amused by his sloppy mouth, and she was scattered a lot. She turned to look at him: "Okay, this goal is good, I like it!"

Shicheng laughed, while she was very moved, of course she wanted to get some benefits! Pick up and go home. Liu Xuer wanted to go up and take a good look at her belongings, so she was picked up and left.

So this reason is very serious and sufficient, and no one in the family said anything.

Shicheng heard Liu Lin say that the silk shop was completely resolved, so he was relieved and prepared for the exam with peace of mind.

Neither he nor Moriko had such an urgent idea of ​​being admitted, and it was still the same as before.

During this time, Liu Xuer was also at home at ease, adapting to the new place, thinking about what Shicheng and Liu Sen should eat and drink every day, and all other things were temporarily put on hold.

More than a month later, Shicheng and Liu Sen went to Hanzhong to take the exam. Liu Xuer didn't go, because her mother-in-law changed her mind again. Maybe someone persuaded her after she went there. It's not good for a man to take an exam and a woman to follow behind. He brought a letter to tell her not to go.

Liu Xuer actually didn't want to go. Shicheng and Moriko's exams were the same as the boy's exams. It took several days to enter the number, and she couldn't help much if she went.

She went back to live with her parents when Shicheng was away these days.

, eagerly waiting for the birth of the eldest grandson or granddaughter.

He also led Liu Xuer to Liu Tao to see his new house, Liu Tao's new house is not bad, but he is a bit lonely living alone, and he is still working hard wanted to persuade his father and stepmother to move in.

After listening to Liu Xuer, she didn't say much. If Liu Tao really cares about Xiuxiu, she should work hard now. She is just a bystander, Xiuxiu is not enlightened. It's okay to wake up to Xiuxiu, but you can't talk nonsense about other things.

He is the person in the family who cares about Moriko's exam results the most, but she also knows that everyone is unwilling to force Moriko to pass the exam. Moriko is only twelve years old. , so she kept silent. I am only busy with food every day.

Liu Xuer just happened to be tidying up her kitchen, so the two of them were in the kitchen every day, thinking about what to eat, how to eat well, and how to eat exquisitely.

Song Yao was born in a big family, and they were also brought in to study all day long, and Shao Rong was the one in charge of eating.

I was absent-minded. I frequently went outside to see when Moriko was coming back, and asked Liu Xuer, if I passed the exam, what should I do next? If I don't pass the exam, should I come back?

From the exam to the fifteenth day, Shicheng and Moriko came back.

I didn't wait, anyway, there was naturally Shi Qian staring at the list, if it was a hit, maybe the news on the official road ran faster than their own news!

"Anyway, I thought about it. If I pass the test, I don't want to take the test again... If I don't pass the test, I can take the test again three years later." Liu Sen sat on the edge of the kang, pouting. mouth talking.

What should I do.

Moriko also knew that if she passed the exam, her mother definitely wanted to go to the Jinshi exam, so she said her thoughts first.

Mr. He's mouth moved, he endured it first, and went to see Liu Changgeng.

Shi Cheng smiled and said: "I think so too... In fact, it is more suitable for me to do business, and to do business freely."

Liu Xuer hurriedly asked: "Don't you want to be an official? If you pass the jinshi exam, why would you be an official? I'm rushing to accept you as students, and then send official positions to your heads!"

Shicheng naturally knew what she meant, and said with a smile: "Yeah, it's like this, if you get the rank of non-commissioned officer, it will fall on your head, and I will give it to you to be a county magistrate for three years, and then I will be promoted. If my teacher does well in the court, the promotion will be fast. If it is not good, the promotion will be slower. The teacher will arrange for me. Of course, I will become the teacher's person, he What kind of party is in the court, what kind of party is I, and whoever he is not in harmony with, I will fight with whomever... Anyway, since I worshipped the teacher, the court's struggle for power, I plunged into it. "

He was startled.

The willow tree nodded and said: "Yes, almost no one can be an official, even if he is a small county magistrate from a distance, but the officials in the court and even the emperor are very clear, this county is very clear. Who is the commander..."

The willow tree turned to look at Mrs. He, although Shicheng and Liu Xuer’s meaning was obvious, but instead he said first: “Mother, Mori is only twelve years old when he is full, and he will be admitted to the jinshi next year. At the age of thirteen, you asked him to fight with those old slick officials in office, how can he be calculated against others? Officialdom is different from our common people, if one can't get it right, he will lose his head!"

He didn't have to call Liu Sen an official. At the beginning, she was most enthusiastic about Liu Sen's examination for the imperial examination because she subconsciously felt that reading was noble and clean. Everyone knows that those who read are the best! The others really hadn't thought about it carefully, and of course I couldn't say it at this time, and I was really shocked by what they said.

Liu Changgeng actually thinks the same as the children, and he doesn't want Liu Sen to be an official. He goes far away at a young age, and it is a mistake to be an official. If you are wrongly accused of a crime, you will be exiled if it is light, or you will lose your head if it is serious. Although he also knows that there are those who have been an official for a lifetime and have smooth sailing. For example, the grandfather of his second daughter-in-law, Lao Hanlin, didn't he just retire and return home safely? However, he still did not want his son to become an official. It is the best to live a safe and secure life.

Liu Changgeng looked at Liu Lin: "I know the meaning of the tree, Lin, what do you think?"

Liu Lin nodded hurriedly: "My eldest brother and I thought the same, let's do business, although I have been exploited and oppressed by the officials, sometimes I see the prestige of being an official, and I feel that it is good to be an official. , Being an official is very risky. It is really necessary to be exquisite and shrewd in order to be able to call the wind and call the rain in the officialdom... Although we are smart, he is only a countryman, and he has no background in the officialdom, so he can only climb up step by step... Moriko's temperament is okay to enjoy happiness, but to climb up step by step, he will definitely not be able to hold it. Besides, what's wrong with doing business and living a comfortable life? ?"

Liu Sen is busy nodding! That's what he thought!

The catkins laughed beside her.

He didn't think much about it at first, but now he has stopped thinking about it after listening to his sons.

Everyone said it, no one said that if Liu Sen was admitted to the test, everyone knew that his mother He did not speak, and he should have changed his mind, everyone. Put this topic to an end.

Drinking tea and chatting this day, the family slowly enjoyed the summer afternoon.

Liu Xuer went to pack up her things a little, and when Shicheng came back, she naturally wanted to go home and live. After I packed up, I saw that it was very early, and it was too late to go back after dinner. Just as he was about to enter the room, Liu Sen came out of the room and saw her smiling: "Sister."

"Um... what's wrong? What are you laughing at?" Liu Xuer asked with a smile.

Liu Sen smiled and said, "Thank you and brother-in-law!"

Liu Xuer laughed and patted him: "Why are you being polite with my sister?" After thinking about it, she asked: "Moriko, have you really figured it out? Maybe you are still young now. In a few years, maybe your thinking has changed, and you think that life is only a few decades, and it is good to live a wonderful life!"

Liu Sen's face also became serious, looked at her and said, "Sister, do you know who I envy the most?"

Liu Xuer shook her head: "I don't know."

"What I envy the most is my brother and I's Mr. Enlightenment... Can't think of it? Everyone thinks that this gentleman is not motivated, and he is not serious in teaching and educating people. But I feel comfortable living first - picking chrysanthemums and seeing Nanshan leisurely. A pot of tea and a book every day, how wonderful? Why do you have to sharpen your head and get into an unfamiliar officialdom? Not many, people's life is only a few decades, it is because of this that I want to live leisurely!"

Liu Xuer was stunned for a while, she really didn’t expect Liu Sen to be able to say such a big truth in life! It took a long time to laugh and said: "You are young, you are really not motivated at all!" He smiled and rubbed his head: "But I agree with your theory of life!"

Liu Sen smiled.
