Chapter 1168 Preparations

Author: Loeva

Wang Fulin failed to pass the Shujishi exam, but Tang Han did.

This incident is quite surprising. You must know that Wang Fulin ranked higher than Tang Han in both the joint examination and the palace examination. Who would have thought that he would be compared with Tang Han in the shujishi examination?

The Shujishi exam tests literary talent and calligraphy. In this regard, Tang Han, who has a good family background, has a slight advantage over Wang Fulin. And before the exam, the special training given to his son by his father, Mr. Tang, the minister of Dali Temple, obviously also sent

It came in handy. I think that back then, Mr. Tang passed the imperial examination and entered the Imperial Academy. He was appreciated for his outstanding performance in paperwork and his familiarity with the law. As his son, Tang Han was naturally a tiger.

The father has no sons.

Although Wang Fulin has a good family background, his family background is still incomparable with that of the Tang family. He has always been good at policy making, but relatively speaking, he is not as good at literary talent. As for calligraphy, he is only average among the ranks of Jinshi.

It's just a level, it doesn't really stand out. If you want to enter the Imperial Academy, something seems to be missing.

However, Wang Fulin did not seem to be depressed. As soon as his elder brother Wang Fuzhong learned of the exam results, he found a way out for his younger brother and arranged for him to be released as an official and go to Shouyang County, Shanxi Province to be the county magistrate.

This is a large county and quite prosperous, but there are no particularly troublesome powerful overlords in the area. Public security is good. His predecessor was promoted normally after his term was over and there were no major mistakes. As long as Wang Fulin stays in office safely for three years, he will be guaranteed to remain in office during his term.

Living in such a peaceful situation in Shouyang County, it is easy to get a good review and get promoted smoothly. This was obviously a vacancy that Wang Fuzhong had selected for his younger brother. Anyone else would not have been so careful.

Wang Fulin was most happy about this appointment because of its location in Shouyang County: "I just happened to go back to my hometown to worship my ancestors, and then I returned to Shouyang to take office! It's only about 700 miles away, which is much closer than going to the capital from Mizhi.

Got it!"

Regarding his reaction, Wang Fuzhong also looked helpless. Although his brother's articles were quite good, he was a bit naive. If not for this, he would not have spent so much effort on his brother's land. What he is doing now

In this position, if you want to selfishly provide a little convenience for your family, you have to consider it carefully and pay attention to propriety, which is not easy. Precisely because Wang Fulin was selected as a relatively good position as Shouyang County Magistrate, for Chengzhi

He couldn't provide the same help as Hu Kun. All the good things in the world can't come cheap to them, right?

Neither Yu Chengzhi nor Hu Kun took the Shujishi exam, but they had already received their appointment results early. Both of them were sent abroad, one went to Shu, and the other was in Shandong. They were both not bad and medium-sized counties, so that's fine.

It's just that in these two places, they have no personal connections and they are both unfamiliar places. After taking office, they will definitely face a lot of difficulties.

However, neither Yu Chengzhi nor Hu Kun were worried about future difficulties. They were laughing and joking with Wang Fulin, rejoicing that Qin Ping was about to marry again, and urging Qin Bai and Niu to get married early.

When it comes to a wedding, they can rush to drink the wedding wine from their senior brother, then go back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, and then take office.

With them making such a fuss, Qin Bai and the Niu family thought it would be a good idea to have a happy event earlier, so they discussed it with the Yunyang Marquis Mansion and picked out a few auspicious days for the Cai family to choose. In the end, it was decided by

Cai Shengnan's mother and brother picked two dates and sent them back to the Yongjia Marquis Mansion, where Qin Bai and Niu made the decision.

These two dates, one in early May and the other in mid-June, are both in the height of summer. If you hold a wedding in such a season, the newlyweds and their families will definitely find it very hot.

Niu felt that if several students could have a wedding banquet, it would be better to hold the wedding as early as early May, but I am afraid that the time would be too hasty and not enough time to prepare many things. In this way, the date in mid-June

It may be more suitable, but Wang Fulin and the others will definitely not be able to catch up.

Niu was a little confused. Qin Han really couldn't make up his mind for her, so he could only fan her on the side.

Qin Bai said: "It's better to hold the wedding earlier, but how much do we need to prepare? Zhou Xiangnian and other housekeepers at home are very capable. If we are short of manpower, we can borrow people from the eldest house. Brother Ping's yard was renovated a few years ago.

It's still very new now. Let's just repaint it, trim the flowers and trees in the yard, and replace some of the furnishings. Everything else is in complete condition. Only the banquet needs some careful consideration. You can ask for this kind of thing

The eldest daughter-in-law, Zhonghai, discussed this and said that she is the most familiar with these matters. As for the Cai family, I wonder how the dowry is prepared? If their family can make it in time, it will be good in early May. If it is later, Fu Lin and the others will not have time to catch up.

He returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors before taking office. It would be a pity if they missed Brother Ping's wedding banquet."

When Qin Ping got married for the first time, Wang Fulin and the others had not yet become Qin Bai's disciples. Only one Wu Shaoying had tragically drank the wedding banquet as a member of the bride's family. Was Qin An's first marriage to a relative, or was he married without his parents?

Needless to say, it was done upon consent. Marrying again was also a ceremony at the wedding ceremony. Even the eldest brother of the family only sent a representative to witness and did not invite relatives and friends. When Qin Bai's two sons got married, most of his disciples seemed not to have attended.

After the wedding banquet, Qin Bai still felt a little regretful.

He still hoped that his sons' marriage would be blessed by more people. In his life, he only had two sons, but he had a lot of disciples. Compared with the clan members who had only reunited a few years ago, he found that his eldest son Qin Ping seemed to be similar to

These brothers and sisters have a closer relationship. If these students can unite and love each other with their descendants, and help each other, then he will be able to pass away peacefully when he gets old in the future.

Seeing what Qin Bai said, Mr. Niu hesitated for a moment, and then said: "In that case, let's set the auspicious date at the beginning of May. Oh my god, even if you calculate it like this, there is only half a month. Do we really have time?

?!Isn’t there another suitable day in May?!”

Qin Bai smiled and said: "Brother Ping, this is a continuation of the marriage, so you don't have to make the wedding too grand. I think the Cai family doesn't plan to have a grand wedding."

Niu said: "That's different. Marquis Yunyang is just Shengnan's brother. Their family is actually a family of military attachés in Shuozhou. Now Shengnan's brother has only reached the sixth rank. In a place like the capital,

No matter how public it is for a sixth-grade official to hold a happy event, there is no limit. After all, Shengnan is not a girl from the Yunyang Marquis Mansion! But Brother Ping is the eldest son of our Yongjia Marquis Mansion. How could his marriage pass without a trace? Why?

You need to have three days of wine! When he married the first one, he also had three days of wine!"

The fan in Qin Hanzhen's hand paused for a moment, and his movements couldn't help but slow down.

Are the three-day wedding banquet at an ordinary landlord's house in Mizhi County the same as the three-day wedding banquet at a marquis' mansion in the capital?

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but feel a little sour in his heart, but he thought about how difficult it was for his father to remarry, so as a daughter, don't cause trouble for him. It's rare that this is a consensual marriage, even if both parties

Neither of them can be said to have any deep feelings, but they are getting married for the sake of future happiness, so it would be nice to have a little excitement.

She said nothing and continued to fan her grandmother Niu as if nothing had happened.

Qin Bai raised his eyes to look at his eldest granddaughter, smiled slightly, and said to his old wife: "My son is now competing with the Chu family. The Cai family and the Chu family just had a quarrel before, and the matter has something to do with the future daughter-in-law. If

Any more grandiose wedding would be a slap in the face of the Chu family. Although the Queen Mother is backing us, you and I should always get closer to His Highness the Crown Prince and save some face for the Crown Princess. Otherwise, how can we meet each other in the future?

Isn't it embarrassing? I think the Cai family set the wedding date so early, so they probably didn't plan to make it a big deal. Their family must have their own concerns."

Mrs. Niu felt resentful when she heard this: "What is the Chu family? The Queen Mother has also said that Chu Zhengfang and the Chu family are two different things. The Crown Princess is only related to Chu Zhengfang. Why did Brother Ping beat the Crown Princess when he got married?"

Where’s your face?”

She felt a little aggrieved for her eldest son, and was not very willing to have a low-key wedding, so she just wanted to discuss it with the Cai family.

But before she could speak to the Cai family, Qin Ping returned home from the Yamen and set the tone for the marriage: "There is no need to make it a big deal, this is a continuation of the marriage. Although when I married my first wife, my status was far less prominent than it is now, but

The second Xian should not be more popular than the original wife, otherwise what would Rong Niang think? The child will feel uncomfortable when he sees it. "

Mrs. Niu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she saw Qin Hanzhen. She seemed to be ignoring her granddaughter's feelings.

Qin Hanzhen glanced at his father in surprise, but felt relieved and said with a smile: "It is also a happy event for my father to marry again. You will live with your new wife in the future. As long as you and your husband are harmonious, you don't have to worry about me."

Qin Ping shook his head and insisted on his opinion: "Three days are not necessary, just one day of wine. Although our family is a prince's mansion, we are not very wealthy, so we don't need to waste money. Simplicity is respected in the palace, and our family's wealth

As a relative, you shouldn't be too extravagant."

This was a good reason. Although Mrs. Niu still felt sorry for her son, she still reluctantly accepted Qin Ping's opinion and promised to keep the wedding to the level of a fifth- or sixth-grade official. She asked someone to go to the Cai family

While sending the letter, Mrs. Yunyanghou and Mrs. Cai San were both very satisfied with it. Cai Shengnan's mother and brother also thought that this was enough and did not worry about it. They were just busy preparing the dowry for Cai Shengnan.

Although Cai Shengnan originally had a prepared dowry, due to the inconvenience of transportation and the insufficient level, all the large items were left in Shuozhou, and only Xinruan was brought to the capital, just in case. Now the Cai family still needs to find a specialized dowry.

The dowry shop is urgently preparing all kinds of dowry furniture, supplies, wedding clothes and jewelry. Everyone in the Cai family is busy with this, and even Cai Shiqi's wedding preparations have been temporarily put aside.

The Qin family was naturally equally busy. Xiao Feng had to temporarily stop Qin Hanzhu's classes and leave her young son to look after her and the nanny, and then freed up her hands to assist Niu in preparing for the wedding. Qin Hanzhen also stepped in

He helped with the banquet and so on. Over at the head of the house, the Min family was also sent to help, but although the Yao family said they wanted to help, not many came. Because Tang Han was admitted to the Shujishi, the Tang family

There is also going to be a wedding for her son, and the date is at the end of May, not much later than Qin Ping. Mrs. Yao has to prepare a dowry for her daughter, and she can't get married for a while.

While the people in both rooms were busy, an unexpected letter was delivered to the door of Yongjia Marquis Mansion.
