Chapter 236: There are apricots but no plums

"You have let my baby daughter suffer such a great grievance. Do you want to forget it like this?" Mr. Yin glared at him... He felt that he should be very angry, but his anger was extremely limited, and he was still a little happy in his heart. This made Mr. Yin feel a little embarrassed and said, "Are you worthy of her like this?"

Silently said, "I'm sorry to her and I'm sorry to you. You see how you can atone for your sins. I will do it well, and it will never be vague."

In fact, Mr. Yin himself knew that such a perfect son-in-law who is both talented and beautiful, and has a deep affection for his daughter could not even find him with a lantern. Moreover, through this period of contact, he was extremely satisfied with Chen Si and saw that he could live in Hu Zhongcheng's villa. Knowing this definitely means that Chen Lian's affairs had been settled and he looked at him with admiration.

So Mr. Yin's decision was no surprise, but he knew that if he wanted to quarrel, he had to take advantage of this moment, so he could not easily let go of silence. He pretended to think for a moment, and then said, "Let the affairs of the Lu family be clear, you have no connection, right?"

"Never before." Chen Si denied: "There will never be any in the future."

"Absolutely no! Just cut it off and clean it. Don't be too full of it. You can get into trouble that you can't take off." Mr. Yin said with a stern face.

When he knew that his great achievements were about to be accomplished, he became more and more respectful. No matter what the old man said, he would never talk back on his words, and his attitude was surprisingly good.

This made Mr. Yin even more angry. Finally, he stopped talking about the Lu family and said, "Also, my daughter is the phoenix among people. She needs a dragon among people to match. Do you think you are?"

He said silently: 'I just praised me as unique in heaven and earth, why did he question whether I am worthy in the blink of an eye?' But he also knew that the old man was pure revenge, so he naturally didn't care about him. He pretended to think for a while and said: "I think... I'm okay."

"Just say yes?" Mr. Yin glared at him, "From ancient times to the present, when did you see that a person who is not a Jinshi, and who is called a dragon and a phoenix among people?"

He said silently: 'Then Confucius is not forgetting it.' Then he smiled and said, "Don't worry, son-in-law, I will definitely study hard, strive to win the Juren this year and the Jinshi next year."

"The snow-capped mountains are not piled up, and the cowhide is not bragging." Master Yin said with a straight face: "We can say ugly things ahead. If you can't win the Juren, don't expect me to accept the betrothal gift; if you can't win the Jinshi, don't expect to marry my daughter home." Then he stood up and said: "Do you remember?"

He said silently: "Remember," when he saw Mr. Yin walking out, he quickly said: "Let's go after dinner?"

Master Yin's steps paused for a moment, but then he continued to walk forward until he was at the door, and then he left without looking back.

Silent smiled bitterly and said, "You really can take advantage of the danger." He then told Tiezhu to go to Lingyin Temple to buy another one and deliver it to the plum villa while it is hot, so as not to delay the old man for dinner.

At night, Tiezhu came back and said in a silent face, "Sir, the old man over there said that this kind of filial piety must become the norm, so you can't just forget it."

Chen Si sighed and said, "Then give it, give it every day until you are tired of it."

"Do you give it every day?" Tiezhu said with a smile of grinding face: "You are not in charge of the company and don't know that the food is expensive. This table of utensils costs eight taels of silver. This money is enough to order a decent table on the outside of the stairs."

"So expensive?" Chen Si was shocked. Although he was now the inspector and military supervisor in Zhejiang, he was not a local official after all, and he had no money at all. Moreover, because of the nature of his job, no one dared to give him gifts, so in addition to that little salary, there was only the 100 taels allocated to the inspector and the 200 taels of office expenses the court allocated to the inspector every year. If Hu Zongxian had not been generous and generous, he would have given him 100 taels of subsidy every month, and he would have been unable to make ends meet and he would have to earn the old capital he saved last year.

Youdao is a penny that stumped the hero. Chen Si said guiltily: "Then send it once every other day... I'll write another letter, you send someone back to Shaoxing and ask the old man for one or two thousand taels of emergency." He has come out to become an official and asks his family for money. It's so embarrassing. I thought about it all night, but Chen Si didn't know how to speak to his father.

However, the next morning, the problem was solved. Miss Yin sent someone to send a letter, opened it silently, and there were two sentences on the paper: "Don't worry about external affairs, just read the books of sages." There was also an official ticket that was paid as soon as you saw the ticket, the amount was...5,000 taels.

Siniang pinched his fingers for a long time, but didn't know how much the five thousand taels were, so he asked Tiezhu who came in and said, "How much is the five thousand taels of silver?"

"I can give Mr. Yin the most expensive mattress in Lingyin Temple to Mr. Yin every day, and I can give it to him for two years." Tiezhu said intuitively: "If you give it to him every other day, you can give it to him for four years."

"So that's enough?" Chen Si suddenly became happy. He hesitated all night, not knowing why he asked his father for money. Now Miss Yin has sent it to him, which has relieved him of a big heart. He only said happily: "I don't have to fight for money in the future."

Tiezhu was sweating and whispered: "Miss Yin's money can only be rescued for a while. The adults are the head of the family, and they will depend on you in the future."

Chen Shun said, "Let me guard the treasure pot and beg for food? Are you stupid or am I stupid?" He said, "When I marry this good wife, at least I will not be defeated by other people's silver bullet attacks in the future. This is really gratifying." He then picked up a brush and wrote a line of words and said, "I dare not say that you are a good and bad official in this life, but with you here, I will definitely be a clean official." He put in an envelope and said, "Go and let the sender take back."

Tiezhu's forehead was sweating and he said silently: "What, are you uncomfortable?"

Tiezhu quickly wiped his sweat and whispered: "Do you not reject being a corrupt official in love?"

Silent rolled his eyes and cursed with a smile: "Everything is possible, unless you all get out of here."

Tiezhu thought about it, so he quit with a embarrassed smile.

From that day on, Miss Yin no longer pretended not to be familiar with her as before. She would send people to calm the mind and replenish the brain every day. According to the knowledgeable manager, the ingredients were priced at gold. In order to make him concentrate on preparing for the exam, Ms. Yin also took Aman over. Fortunately, the little girl liked this beautiful and delicious aunt very much, so she temporarily lived with Miss Yin.

But Miss Yin also has her reserve. Since the meeting in Meiyuan, she has stopped showing up. Chen Mo refused to ask her to go out for a walk. Chen Mo knew that this was because the marriage between the two was due to love, so she was afraid that she would be looked down upon. Since she understood Yi Ren’s thoughts, he naturally could not sit idly and wanted to comfort her.

But if you say this bluntly, you will seem too arrogant, so you must be more tactful. After thinking about it, he saw that the lotus leaves outside the window were already green, so he broke a branch with his own hands and said, "I get lotus roots because of lotus." He then asked someone to pick a basket of fresh apricots from the yard, cover them with the green lotus leaves, and send them to Miss Yin... He believed that with Miss Yin's aura, he would definitely understand his meaning.

But Miss Yin took the basket of apricots covered with lotus leaves, and then looked at the nonsense saying "Why do you get lotus root" and then understood that "lotus root" is "what" and "lotus root" is "ooooo root"... So in fact, "why do you get lotus root"? It was the lover who asked, "How do we get lotus root together?"

Looking at the basket of seductive apricots, the second couplet naturally came to my eyes, "If there is apricot, you don't need plums." The smart Ms. Yin immediately understood the meaning of the lover. It is that fate connects us together, so there is no need for matchmakers to be matched by a matchmaker... "I am fortunate to not need matchmakers."

"Doing lotus roots because of lotus? Apricots don't need plums." After repeatedly savoring the meaning of these two sentences, Miss Yin's heart feels warmer. Her lover is so understanding and gentle and considerate. If she is so kind, what can I ask for in this life? The more she thinks about her face, the more she wants, and she wishes she can put her wings and fly to him and tell him her love.

But when the wind blew, she woke up again and looked at the almanac on the wall. She found that there was less than a month left before the examination. At this time, it was difficult to buy time. How could she disperse her lover's energy and waste his time? So she asked the maid to send four sentences to Shen Mo and said, "You have already asked the good news, and the sea of ​​knowledge is endless to fight for the day; why should we cut the candles in the west window together and talk about the title of the golden list?" It means, I know your heart, so you can work hard, and we will play after the exam.

After reading Miss Yin's letter, Shen Mo stopped asking her to come out and studied harder. In April, Wang, Tang, Qu, Xue, and other great scholars, Cheng Mo, and the exam papers of the provinces. He remembered thousands of articles in his heart. He felt that he could write like a magical person, so he ordered his subordinates to pack up their luggage and prepare to return to Shaoxing to take the exam... Not all students can take the provincial examination, and they must pass the exam first. Only those with excellent grades can register the exam... that is, they can be qualified to take the exam.

I went to Meishu to say goodbye to Mr. Yin first. Although the old man was still a little embarrassed, the exam was the biggest now, and he was afraid that it would affect his mood. He specially set up a banquet for him to have a farewell ceremony. He gave him a 2,000 taels of silver to the official ticket, saying that it was for money.
