1489 Mother's Heart (1)
The general examination is taken once every three days, and after the examination, you can go home and rest for one night, and then go back to continue the examination.
When Jiang Fangfei went to pick up people, Qingshu told An An: "When you come back from the meeting, you must not ask him how he did in the exam, nor do you allow him to read, let him rest after eating." ”
"Okay."
Qingshu has rich experience in this area, and An An listens to her.
In the evening, the five candidates came back and took a hot shower to get rid of fatigue, and then after eating delicious food, they all went back to sleep. The next day, Meng Mengliang and the five of them set off to the examination room again, and this time Qingshu didn't send it again.
An An came to the main courtyard after breakfast in her own courtyard, and when she saw Qingshu, she said with a smile: "Sister, Jingye said that he did well in the first exam." ”
Afraid of being scolded by Qingshu, An An explained: "Sister, I didn't ask because Jingye said it himself. ”
With these words, she felt a lot more relieved.
Qingshu didn't interfere with this, she said another thing to An An: "Today is the day when the Cui family escorts her out of Beijing, do you want to give her a ride." ”
An An touched her stomach and said, "Sister, let's not go, in case that woman goes crazy and hurts us, it won't be good." ”
Qingshu smiled and said, "I wasn't going to go, I just asked what you mean." ”
also knew that An An attached great importance to her reputation, so she asked this question.
If she wasn't pregnant, An An would definitely give her a ride and taunt her by the way, but now she is pregnant with such a dangerous person as she still avoids contact.
The two were chatting for a while, and they saw Chun Tao come in with an invitation.
An An was surprised and asked, "Mine?" ”
After opening the post and reading it, I realized that it was Yu Qing's post, and An An was a little puzzled.
"What's wrong?"
An An gave the prayer post to Qing Shu and said, "Yu Qing knows that Jing Ye and I are now living in your house, and I am afraid that something will happen to me at this time." ”
And this is not a small matter, otherwise I would not have come to see her at this time.
Qingshu didn't accept the post, but asked, "Does her family have relatives who work in Guangxi?" ”
An An was a little surprised: "Sister, why do you ask like that?" ”
"So you don't have to?"
An An hurriedly said: "Yes, her uncle works in Yulin, Guangxi. Sister, don't you think she's here for her uncle? ”
If this is the case, Yu Qing will not come to visit her, but to her sister.
Sure enough, as she guessed, Qingshu said: "The officials and officials in Guangxi have shielded each other and committed many crimes, and Wang Zisong has already verified their crimes. The emperor has issued a holy decree to escort the political envoy and the prefect of Greentown and other officials who have committed serious crimes back to Beijing. ”
An An was shocked. The officials of the entire Guangxi were served in a pot, what a big deal this is!
Qingshu said with a smile: "This matter is now being discussed in the streets and alleys, and you haven't paid attention to the things you worry about the business test all day long." ”
"I originally thought it was just a case from my father, but I didn't expect it to implicate the entire officialdom in Guangxi." Seeing Qingshu's expression as usual, she couldn't help asking, "Sister, did you know that this case was not simple?" ”
Qingshu nodded and said: "Dad is just a petty official of the sixth grade, how can he work hard to investigate his case thoroughly, I knew from the beginning that this matter was not simple." ”
An An blurted out: "Sister, why didn't you tell me at that time?" ”
As soon as she said this, she knew that she was stupid, how could she tell her such a confidential thing.
In the morning, Qingshu and An An were preparing lunch, and Steward Kong came over to greet Qingshu and said, "Madam, there is a woman who calls herself Zichai who says she wants to see you. ”
An An felt a little strange and asked, "Zichai?" Didn't you just say the name? ”
Steward Kong said: "Mrs. Hui, this purple hairpin is a second-class maid beside the Cui family, and she said that there is something important to give to Mrs. ”
An An's face changed when he heard this: "Beat her out for me." ”
Qingshu shook his head and said, "Let her in!" ”
An An was anxious when she heard this, and said, "Sister, what did you do when you saw that woman's maid?" She also sent you something, she must have bad intentions. ”
Qingshu said: "When we see us, we can know what medicine is sold in Cui's gourd, if we don't see it, who knows what else is going on in Cui's gourd." ”
After all, there are still a few loyal maids and daughters-in-law around Cui's side.
An An is one of the ten thousand people who don't want to see Cui's, but Qingshu insists that she can't help it.
Zichai soon came in, she knelt down after crossing the steps, and said while kowtowing: "The slave maid has seen the eldest girl and the second girl. ”
An An said with a calm face: "What did the woman ask you to send to my sister?" ”
Zichai took out a roll of things from his arms, and the thing was still wrapped in oiled paper: "Big girl, second girl, here is a silver ticket of five thousand taels......"
An An didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and said with a blushing face: "Sister, the Cui family really has bad intentions and wants to give you the stolen money." This is to let the brother-in-law's political enemies know, which is equivalent to directly sending the other party a handle. ”
Qingshu raised his forehead and said, "You let her finish her words before making a judgment." ”
Cui's is not crazy, how can he give her the stolen money.
Zichai got Qingshu's words and hurriedly said: "This is not stolen money, it is the silver money that my wife sold the shop on Dongzheng Street." If the eldest girl doesn't believe it, she can send someone to investigate. ”
Qing Shu frowned and said, "That shop on Dongzheng Street is worth at least 20,000 taels of silver, why is it only sold for 5,000 taels of silver?" ”
Cui's has two shops on Dongzheng Street. These two shops are said to be the dowry of the deceased old lady Zhongyong Hou to the Cui family, and later the Cui family gave one of them to Du Shiya, and the other was left to Lin Boyuan. Du Shiya told her about this.
Hearing this, Zichai's eyes instantly turned red, and she choked up: "That shop is indeed worth more than 20,000 taels of silver, who would think that the other party knows that my wife is in a hurry to sell the price, and my wife can only sell it cheaply." ”
An An was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Who bought it?" ”
Zichai shook his head and said, "I don't know, this matter is in charge." The steward must have been greedy for a lot, but his wife was not in good health at the time, and the Cui family had no way to pursue it. ”
An An couldn't help but ask: "Why did you only sell this shop, but not other industries?" ”
Zichai didn't dare to hide it from the two, and said: "Mrs. said that if all the dowries are confiscated, maybe the punishment can be reduced, and the young master can't keep it if there is too much money." ”
Lin Boyuan is relatively slow to react and is very slow to accept external affairs. In his appearance, if there is no one to take care of him, let alone five thousand taels, five taels of silver will not be able to keep it.
Qing Shu held the silver ticket with both hands by Zichai, and asked lightly, "Why don't you send this money to the Cui family for safekeeping?" ”
Speaking of the people of the Cui family, Zichai showed a look of hatred on her face: "After Mrs. sold the shop, Mrs. Shizi got the news and came over to persuade Mrs. that she could hand over the farm shop to them for temporary safekeeping. When the matter is settled, I will return these properties to my wife. ”
Cui Xueying just has a bad temper and not a bad brain, how could she give something to Mrs. Cui, if she really gave it, it was a meat bun and a dog.
