Child Bride’s Peaches and Plums Are All Over the World

  Zhao Ning is jumping up and down to pack his things, and he will go back to his hometown tomorrow.

   He has been away from home for more than a year. When he came, he was still a boy. When he returned, he became a master of Juren. Just thinking about him makes him feel that he is very wise.

   He thought that his grandfather and father and mother would be so happy when they found out, and he eagerly went back to share his success and joy with them.

   What made him happiest was that Gu Jingyun would go back with him.

   In other words, he was going to the capital with Gu Jingyun.

  Spring Festival is in February every year, and Guangdong is too far away from the capital, they can’t celebrate the New Year at home, so they can only go to the capital a few years ago.

   Considering the snow in the north in winter and the possibility of closing the mountains and roads, Zhao Ning decided to go to the capital with Gu Jingyun immediately, so that they could arrive in the capital in late September.

   And Zhao Ning made a route. When he went to the capital, he had to pass through Huizhou. At that time, he could stay at home for a few days, meet his parents and relatives, and get some money by the way.

   He didn't forget that Gu Jingyun was so poor that he wanted to sell paintings, so he planned to go home this time to get more money, and he would cover the board and lodging along the way.

Zhao Ning, who had a big bag, didn't expect that Gu Jingyun was richer than him now. He stayed in the best inns on the road, and had the most delicious food. Even the rough sleepers would have vegetables and meat. .

   Zhao Ning ate a bowl of white rice and stewed chicken with mushrooms until his belly was round. He thought to himself, No wonder Brother Gu has spent all the money while looking at the poor. Given this standard of living, no amount of money will be spent.

   took another look at Li Baolu, who was serving soup to Gu Jingyun, and sighed again, there's nothing you can do, you can't compare people's luck, he has a decathlon daughter-in-law, what can't he want?

   Zhao Ning held the bowl carefully and said, "Brother and sister, the roe deer meat I ate yesterday was very delicious..."

   "Do you only want dried meat?" Li Baolu generously took out an oiled paper bag, "It's just a little hard, so it might be good to use it for porridge."

   Zhao Ning hurriedly took the stuff and gave it to Shunxin, "It's okay, let Shunxin shave it into a thin strip, it's also good to eat as a snack."

  I went to save my saliva, what should I do?

  The Zhao family is not visible in Huizhou County, but it is a big country gentry in the town, and has a good name. Just as far as their family's good name is, their family's family history.

   Five generations from Zhao Ning’s grandfather up, he was a tenant farmer. In addition to cultivating his own land, he usually ran cattle for free for the landlord’s family.

   Coinciding with the war, the landlord's family fled for their lives with the whole family, and the village was empty. Those who didn't leave were not because they didn't want to leave, but because they couldn't escape without money or food.

   When the war ended, the Great Chu was founded, and Emperor Taizu gave the people of the world tax exemption and recuperation. Within three years, all the wasteland that was reclaimed would not be subject to land tax, and after five years of continuous cultivation, the land would be owned by private individuals.

  The ancestors of the Zhao family, who had been so hungry that he could only breathe a sigh of relief, first took relief food from the yamen, and then relied on a **** to open ten acres of wasteland.

   It is said to be wasteland, but it is the land left uncultivated after the village has become extinct. Because of the poor soil quality and inconvenient transportation, the yamen is not nationalized, but the long grass is left to waste.

   But it was a great opportunity for the ancestors of the Zhao family. Before, their family had no land at all, and they were all the land of the tenant landlords.

The Zhao family also died, and only one ancestor of the Zhao family survived. He survived the first year by digging weeds and the government's relief, and the second year began to produce grain in the fields. Without paying taxes, he saved some money and food in three years, and when he was middle-aged, he married a daughter-in-law and passed on his bloodline.

The Zhao family are all diligent and have accumulated a lot of wealth through the efforts of five generations. They are considered a small landlord in the countryside. Therefore, when Grandpa Zhao Ning was born, his great-grandfather waved his hand and decided to send his son to study. Readers, change the door.

   So his grandfather began to study hard, and both his father and brother in the family let him study alone.

   It's a pity that he has not been able to read a name for fifty years. When he came to his son, he also wanted to send his son to study.

   But Zhao Ning's father's ambition is not here, and the Zhao family has long since separated. Although several uncles still help his family, but because of his father's high school expenses, the family's living standard is not comparable to several uncles.

   Therefore, Zhao Ning's father resolutely farms the land and does not study in death.

  According to Zhao Ning, his father was chased in the village by his grandfather with a stick in order not to farm the land, and in the end he escaped to his uncle’s grandfather’s house to be rescued.

And his father lived up to his ambitions. Not only did he farm well, but he quickly brought the family's living standard up to that of several uncles. He also set a precedent and went to the town to open a shop, first to grind rice, and then to open a grain shop. , use the money you earn to buy land to continue farming, and sell the harvested grain...

   In less than 20 years, he became the biggest squire in their town, and Zhao Ning was taken away by his grandfather as soon as he was born, and asked him to inherit his grandfather's ambition to study for the imperial examination.

   It is said that his father even quarreled with his grandfather because of this. It is not that his father does not want his son to study, but that his family does not have this talent.

   Not to mention his father, he also had a headache when he was reading, and he could barely read. Several brothers from his uncle’s family also read, but after going around, no one passed the Tongsheng test, even if he passed the county test.

   But with so many people in the family for reference, everyone can give hope.

   Therefore, Zhao Ning's father thought that it would be better to follow him to farm the land than to spend so much effort, lest his son would only drop his book bag like his father, and would not be able to read aloud except holding a book.

   Isn't that trying to harm his future daughter-in-law and grandson?

   Let Zhao Ning's father let go because Zhao Ning passed the county exam for the first time!

It was incredible, so the Zhao family, including Zhao Ning's uncle, his uncle, and cousins ​​collectively surrounded the ceremony room in the county town. The firecrackers were burned all the way from the county town back to their ancestral house in the village, and the whole county town watched. The Zhao family jokes again.

   So in Huizhou, the Zhao family may not be ranked, but everyone knows his family.

A year ago, the good news that Zhao Ning passed the exam was delivered to Huizhou. The Huizhou county magistrate was also worried that the Zhao family would surround the county government office. The firecracker sellers in the county also entered a truckload of firecrackers in one breath. Who knew that the Zhao family would learn It's a low-key thing, but it's just that the family gets together for a meal and it's over.

   The people in the county town were slightly disappointed and could not see the liveliness.

   The Huizhou county magistrate was also a little disappointed, he deployed the police force in vain.

   Huizhou's businessmen are even more disappointed, their firecrackers can only be kept until the Chinese New Year.

   After a year, there is another good news coming from Huizhou. This time Zhao Ning has passed the exam! The county magistrate personally took people to Zhao's house to congratulate him. It is said that Mr. Zhao fainted on the spot, and after waking up, he cried for three days and three nights before he stopped.

   The Zhao family had already bought firecrackers and all kinds of food this time, and they just waited for their baby Zhao Ning to come home to start the banquet.

   Zhao Ning’s father had already said that this time, he was going to have a running water feast for ten days. The villagers in the town were all waiting to eat Zhao’s wedding wine. Even the county town had good people who came to wait for the wedding wine.

Seeing Zhao Ning, Gu Jingyun, and the others heading to Zhao's house in a carriage, the people on the road kindly reminded them, "Find a family in the village to stay, and the Zhao family's banquet will be from Sizheng (10:00) to Weishi (13:00). ), you eat with an open belly, the more you eat, the happier the Zhao family will be.”

   Li Baolu laughed when she heard this, and looked at Zhao Ning playfully.

   Even Gu Jingyun couldn't help laughing, Zhao Ning blushed and hid in the carriage as if he didn't hear it.

  Really, what a shame, since entering Huizhou, no matter where you go, it's all about their family, up to the ancestors, down to him, everything is spread out, when did their family become so famous?

   I don't blame Zhao Ning, only that the Zhao family's reaction was too fierce, and the people of Huizhou said they wanted to forget it.

  Shun Xin didn't feel ashamed, on the contrary, he was proud of it. Seeing that he was about to get home, he swung the whip and ran quickly with red dates.

The Zhao family's ancestral house is still in the countryside. Entering the village from the country road, as soon as you look up, you can see a large brick house. Zhao Ning, who felt ashamed just a moment ago, was immediately excited and jumped before the carriage stopped. Go down and rush to knock on the door, "Grandpa, father, mother, I'm back!"

  Sentimentally stopped the carriage and jumped down to help his son call the door. Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu pulled the curtains and sat out, smiling at them.

   They are also a little homesick for their mother, uncle, aunt and Niuniu. If they knew about Gu Jingyun's move, they would definitely be so happy.

The Zhao family quickly heard the news and rushed out to hug Zhao Ning. Even his grandfather, who was said to have cried for three days and three nights, came out tremblingly, holding the hand of his family, and said with relief. : "Good boy, really good boy, worthy of my seed, this talent for reading is in the same vein as me!"

   Zhao Ning helplessly raised his head from his mother's arms, "Grandpa, I'm here!"

   Mrs. Zhao squinted and looked at the person in front of him for a while, and finally followed the voice and said to his daughter-in-law: "Well, grandpa saw you, good grandson, come over and let grandpa hug."

   Zhao Ning's father's face was full of black lines, "Father, Ning'er is like me. If you are like you, can you still pass the exam?"

  Li Baolu finally knew why the Zhao family was so famous, she was very happy to see it.

  Gu Jingyun couldn't help laughing, and then said with a smile: "Zhao Ning's luck is really good."

"Your luck is also good," Li Baolu stretched out his hand to hold his, and shook it: "Look, you not only have aunts and aunts and mothers, but I am always with you, who else in this world is more lucky than you? "

  Gu Jingyun tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded and said, "You are right."

  The Zhao family watched the freshly released Juren, and only saw Gu Jingyun after the freshness passed.

   Knowing that he is the new Jie Yuan who instructed Zhao Ning's schoolwork, the Zhao family was so enthusiastic that they respectfully invited Gu Jingyun and his wife in as their upper seat. Zhao Ning's father even poured water for Gu Jingyun's tea.

  Gu Jingyun now has a relationship with Zhao Ning, so naturally he dare not sit down and accept the salute, waiting for him to break free from the vortex of Zhao family's enthusiasm, as indifferent as he is also sweating.

   Not to mention Li Baolu, who was directly surrounded by the female family members of the Zhao family, and when she returned to their guest room, she was dizzy.

   It’s not good to be too enthusiastic.
