Chapter 587: Continuation
Time slipped by while Yu Zhi was slowly recuperating. This year is the year of the examination, and candidates from all over the country gathered in the capital to release the rankings. When everyone saw the name that topped the list, they were all stunned.
Wen Xizhou!
Isn’t this the eldest son of Xiaowen Shangshu? Didn't he go to Habayashi Wei to be a military officer? Why did you come back to take the imperial examination again? Also won the championship in one fell swoop?
Others have gone through untold hardships in one path, but he has jumped back and forth in both civil and military paths, and he can still excel. When did the imperial examinations become so simple?
Sure enough, the outstanding ones are always other people's children!
Whether you are a parent or a son, your mood is extremely complicated.
This is just the beginning. After the palace examination, the news of Xizhou High School's champion came out, and everyone's mood became even more sour. They looked at the boy Lang Lang who was riding a big horse on the street, and they suddenly realized, oh, this boy has grown so much, and his wings are getting fuller.
However, no matter whether it was Wen Xizhou winning the first prize or the first prize, his mother, Mrs. Xiaowen, did not show up for such a happy event worth celebrating.
Actually, the outside world has never stopped guessing about Yu Zhi's illness. This is just a guess that further confirms that her life is not long. Some people inevitably have other thoughts.
Xiaowen Shangshu holds a high position and has won the trust of the prince. If Mrs. Xiaowen goes, there must be a mistress in such a big mansion, right? No matter how deep the relationship is, it will be sad for a year or two at most. Xiaowen Shangshu is only in his thirties, and he will definitely not stop marrying.
Besides, his eldest son is grown up, and his daughter and youngest son are still young. The eldest daughter who lost her mother is one of the five not to marry. Even for the sake of the youngest daughter and son, Xiaowen Shangshu had to marry another bride.
Although you married as a second wife, it depends on who you will be the second wife to. Not to mention anything else, as soon as she gets married, she will be Madam Hou, and there are a bunch of ladies in Beijing rushing to marry her.
What happened to Xiaowen Shangshu Aizhong's original partner? No matter how much she loves, she is gone, so what if she can't fight? It's enough to get benefits!
What happened to the three first-born children? If they marry themselves, they still have to call their mother, as long as they have made no serious mistakes, and the word filial piety is put there, they still have to treat themselves respectfully. The child he gave birth to is also a descendant, even if it is not as good as the first three, but it is still Xiaowen Shangshu's child, can he ignore it? He is so capable, does his child have no future?
These are sober and transparent, and there are still many Huaichun girls looking forward to a beautiful love.
They have long been envious of Xiao Wen Shangshu's deep affection for his wife, and feel that even a country girl can win Xiao Wen Shangshu's heart, and they are very confident that they can occupy a place in Xiao Wen Shangshu's heart and even replace him. The first one became the love of Xiaowen Shangshu and the envy of all the women in the capital.
In short, because of Yu Zhi's "serious illness", Wen Jiuxiao, a middle-aged man, is more favored than his young and promising son. After all, Wen Xizhou is young and promising, but he is young and has not yet entered the officialdom. Even if he wins the first prize, he is only a sixth-rank official, so no one can say for sure what will happen in the future.
Wen Jiuxiao is different. Once married, she will be Mrs. Hou. A height that no one else can reach in a lifetime. A fool knows how to choose.
Many people sent posts to the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, spying on Mrs. Hou's words openly and secretly.
The Zhou family is one of them.
Ever since Zhou Linger was rescued by Wen Jiuxiao, she had ulterior motives for him. Of course, the so-called rescue was unilaterally thought by Zhou Linger, and Wen Jiuxiao didn't remember her at all.
Zhou Linger has also reached the age of seeing each other. Her mother has carefully selected several houses, but she disagrees fiercely. Why? I have delusional thoughts in my heart!
Made her mother so angry, "You **** girl, you have such a big idea, what do you think in your heart? The eldest son of the Zhang family is a talented person, and he can do it. What are you dissatisfied with?"
Zhou Ling'er rolled her eyes, "He is a concubine, and I am a dignified concubine to marry a concubine, what a shame."
"It's true that he is a concubine, but he is the eldest son of a concubine. The concubine son of the Zhang family is only two years old, and he is still sick. It is up to him to say whether he can stand still. When he grows up, the eldest son will be a good man. Ling'er, Zhang's family is really good, mother won't cheat you." Her mother persuaded her earnestly.
Don't look at Zhou Linger's mother with her eyes above her head all day long, but she really loves her daughter.
However, no matter how much she persuaded, Zhou Linger just said "I don't want to."
Finally, her mother became impatient, and decided to make the marriage regardless of her objection. Unexpectedly, Zhou Ling'er ran to find the eldest son of the Zhang family, and the marriage naturally ended.
Now even Zhou Linger's father became angry, saying that he wanted to send her to Zhuangzi outside the city, Zhou Linger hesitated to express his thoughts.
Zhou Linger's mother naturally disagreed. It is true that she wanted to marry her daughter into a noble family, but she was also reluctant to let her beautiful daughter be her successor, not to mention that the man was Xiaowen Shangshu, who she had admired when she was young. Abandoned his own son-in-law... How embarrassing and awkward.
"No, no, do you think it's so easy to be a second wife? No, I absolutely don't agree, you should die."
Zhou Linger's mother disagrees, but her father agrees! If he can become Xiaowen Shangshu's father-in-law, what will he worry about in the future? With the help of her father, Zhou Ling'er went out of the house to find her good uncle to find a way.
Mrs. Changle Hou heard the niece's righteous request, and her whole body was in a mess.
The wife of Xiaowen Shangshu is still there, so you are thinking about the seat of the successor? Not to mention that his wife is still here, even if his wife is really gone, there are so many ladies in Beijing, it is not your turn to marry in! Don't you know what you are like? Even if Xiaowen Shangshu continues in the future, are you so easy to advance as a Wen family?
Hehe, let her help to talk about Xiang, she is not so capable!
Mrs. Changle Hou felt that this niece had lost her mind, so she sent two wives to send her back, and swore that she had nothing to do with her sister-in-law's family.
Many people came to the door, and Mrs. Hou also thought about it, she was worried!
Why do you think the third child is so unhappy in marriage? The third daughter-in-law, she didn't like it in every possible way at the beginning, for the sake of the third child, and for the sake of the child, she pinched her nose and recognized it.
But she is actually short-lived, middle-aged and widowed, isn't this a trick to kill the third child?
Her poor third son, poor grandchildren!
No, no, she has to do the totaling.
Hey, the daughter-in-law is fine, but the mother-in-law has already picked a bride for her son, which is ridiculous!
