When Qin Lang got home, he took a bath, ate a table of meals prepared by Shi Jiang, and then fell asleep.
Shi Jiang was not in a hurry. In the past few years, she had been teaching Qin Lang that as long as he worked hard, no matter how he got in the exam, it would be worthy of his hard work over the years.
In the next few days, Qin Lang returned to his previous reading state.
Practice martial arts in the morning and evening, and then read during the day.
Occasionally, I would accompany Shi Jiang out for a spring outing, after all, it is the season when the grass grows and the orioles fly.
The two emperors were not in a hurry, but the servants in the family were very anxious.
"After this time, I'm afraid I have to go to Fucheng. The house lady has already bought it earlier. Then you can just go there with the book boy."
Looking at the new buds emerging from the branches of the weeping willow tree by the river in the distance, although spring has arrived, there is still a hint of chill in the wind, so both mother and son put their hands in their sleeves.
"……mother!"
Hearing what his mother said, Qin Lang's eyelashes twitched slightly and he turned to look at her.
But he saw his mother's face turned sideways, showing her beautiful face, without looking back at him.
"After you become a scholar, you will be a distinguished adult. Mom believes that you can take care of yourself. As for whether you continue to take scientific examinations or go out for travel, it is up to you. Mom believes in your decision.
."
Qin Lang pursed his lips. If he hadn't known his mother well, he would have really believed her.
He obviously felt that he was too clingy, so he wanted to kick him out early for some peace and quiet.
"Mom, aren't you going to open a shop in Fucheng?"
When Shi Jiang heard this, he had a headache and shook his head repeatedly.
"It's not like our family doesn't have money for your scientific examination. You just need enough money. Mom is getting old and doesn't want to travel around anymore."
In fact, it was because Shi Jiang was tired of walking all the way from the border town to Qingcheng.
This is ancient times, there are no cars or airplanes.
Going to Fucheng by horseback would take ten days and a half at the fastest.
Even if you don't have to walk, the wheels of the carriage have no shock absorption function, and the road is a dirt road. Even if it is an official road, people sitting in it will have to bump and bump all the way.
The bumpy return.
Just one trip back and forth, and the intestines in your stomach will be jolted into knots!
She had already taken the ride once before in order to buy a house in Fucheng, but she never wanted to experience this bumpy ride again.
When Qin Lang heard his mother's words, he almost choked on his saliva.
His mother is only in her early thirties, why is she so old?
Shi Jiang didn't look at the helpless look in Hao Daer's eyes. He was thinking about whether to find the rubber tree.
She remembered very clearly that there were rubber trees over there in Nanyang.
As long as there are rubber trees, you can make rubber products and add them to the wheels. Then you don't have to worry about being knocked into four parts when traveling in the future!
However, because Qin Lang is always there, it is difficult for her to go to sea and travel far.
After all, in this world, Qin Lang is really good when he is good.
He took out a breath and put his thoughts back again.
When the mother and son returned home, they heard the servant say happily.
"Madam, the young master has been hit!"
Shi Jiang nodded, indicating that he understood.
He also asked his servants to set off firecrackers, and then scattered the exchanged copper coins on the street to make everyone feel happy.
When the Qin family first came here, they were orphans and widowed. When the mother first started doing business in public, she was despised by some people.
Later, even if Qin Lang enrolled in a private school, many people would look down upon him.
But he didn't expect that Qin Lang would become a scholar in just a few years.
Even though there were many people who looked down upon her before, now they all express congratulations. There is even a family with a daughter of school age who wants to marry the Qin family.
Although there are not many people who can be admitted as a scholar, there are not many as old as Qin Lang.
After all, there are so many people who have only passed the examination in their 70s or 80s.
Qin Lang is only fourteen years old this year. He has achieved such an honor at the age of fourteen. He can be said to be the youngest scholar in Qingcheng.
In the future, it is completely conceivable that it will only be a matter of time before one becomes a Jinshi.
In response, Shi Jiang just smiled and said that the child was still young and he would not consider marrying for the time being.
In fact, Shi Jiang told Qin Lang privately that he should not consider marrying and having children until he was at least eighteen years old. Getting married too early would be detrimental to his health.
For this reason, Qin Lang's face looked like a red rag to his mother.
Of course, the caring people around him thought that Shi Jiang wanted to find a better wife for his son to help him.
Shi Jiangquan ignored these words, and after a few days, he watched Qin Lang leave.
Two years later, the news came that Qin Lang had won the imperial examination, and the door of the Qin family was broken down by a matchmaker.
This time, not only the merchants, but also the officials were also interested.
However, Shi Jiang still insisted on not marrying his son for the time being.
The families in Qingcheng all felt that the Shi family looked down upon others and did not want their son to marry a lowly person. Therefore, they were very disgusted with Shi Jiang and felt that this mother-in-law was really difficult to get along with.
Those who felt sorry for their daughter all gave up their thoughts on getting married.
Two years later, Qin Lang became a Jinshi in high school and was still well dressed. After returning home at the same time, it didn't take long for him to marry the daughter of Xu Xiucai when he was studying in his private school.
Everyone suddenly realized that the reason Shi Shi said it was too early was because Qin Lang already had his heart set on something.
However, everyone did not know that the Xu family did not expect that the Qin family would propose marriage.
After all, Xu Xiucai's daughter Xu Yinyin is two years older than Qin Lang, and she had a marriage before, but she broke off because she disliked being poor and favoring being rich.
As a result, Xu Yinyin decided not to marry. Xu Xiucai felt sorry for his daughter, so he wanted to find a husband for her. However, it was too difficult to find a good man who was willing to marry her.
In this way, year after year, Xu Yinyin was dragged to the age of twenty and was still unmarried.
The fact that the Qin family came to propose marriage made Xu Xiucai confused for a while.
In the end, Xu Yinyin called Qin Lang out, had a private conversation, and decided to get married when she came back.
Before getting married, Qin Lang told his mother that he saw the down-and-out Mr. Qin and Qin Fei in the capital. The father and son fought in the street for unknown reasons, and no one came to persuade them to stop until they were badly beaten and bloody.
After persuading him to leave, Qin Fei turned around and left, leaving Mr. Qin sitting on the ground and crying loudly, complaining about his son's unfilial piety.
Both of them saw Qin Lang standing aside, but they no longer recognized him as a child back then.
After getting married, Qin Lang would take his wife to take office, but Shi Jiang was unwilling to go with him.
Leaving the family's properties in Xu Yinyin's hands, Shi Jiang left Qingcheng and headed for the South China Sea when Qin Lang took office.
By the time Qin Lang received the news, Shi Jiang had already boarded the ship to Nanyang.
In this life, Qin Lang never died tragically under the sword of Hu Nu. He worked conscientiously as an official and only became an official when he reached the second rank!
