Chapter 54

Xue Yi sighed and sighed: "At first, I thought that our family, young and old, should go back to our hometown to pay respects to our ancestors after the New Year's Eve. After we got married, we had children, and we should take our children back. Second, Honger won the imperial examination this year, thanks to the protection of her ancestors. Anyway, we went back in the first year of our wedding, and we never worshiped our ancestors in a serious way. It’s the same situation this year, and it’s still not going to happen.”

Xue Wang also felt reasonable after hearing this. No matter how big the official is or how good the business is, the ancestors will never forget it.only……

Seeing that her parents were worried about something, Xue Hong said with a smile: "When will my father leave? I wonder if we can add a merchant ship from our family to accompany him? Since we can't celebrate the New Year in the middle of Beijing, at worst we can just go back to the south with my father to celebrate the New Year?"

As soon as Xue Pan heard that he could go out again, he was very happy and kept saying that it was very good.

Xue Yi thought about it for a long time but nodded, and said to Xue Wang: "Well, it's good this way. In case you leave your daughters and come to accompany us to have dinner, and return with the news that I can't celebrate the New Year in Beijing, when the time comes It's okay for Chai'er to say it, I'm afraid Xiang'er is going to cry."

Speaking of her two daughters, Mrs. She is envious of her second uncle's family, Bao Qin, who travels around with her father all year round. Even though she is just returning to her hometown this time, she has to go out anyway. For her, she is probably happier than the Chinese New Year."

Xue Yi thought of his handsome second brother, and put a smile on his face, and suddenly remembered the previous letter saying that this year is coming to the end of the year, the second bedroom family will return to their hometown to celebrate the New Year, and now everyone in the third bedroom of the Xue family will be able to Gathered.Thinking about the lively scene during the Chinese New Year, Xue Yi's smile was even better.

After Xue Wang went back, he sorted out the gift lists that he sent back to his hometown and sent them to various families.Baochai and her brothers also got together to discuss what gifts to bring to the sisters and brothers. There was no one idle in Xue's house for a while, and everyone was full of joy.

A few days later, it was agreed in the court that Emperor Kangxi would set off on a southern tour on the 22nd of the first lunar month of the following year, and Xue Yi's departure from Beijing would be on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month.

That being the case, the Xue Wang family even prepared the annual gifts to be sent to various families in Beijing, and planned to go to various places before leaving Beijing, so as not to leave the impression of being ignorant of etiquette in the eyes of various families in Beijing.

The busiest season of the year is giving New Year's gifts, and now there are gifts from the south to take care of, making the mediocre Xue Wang family so busy, at least with Baochai's assistance, everything will be smooth As for messing up the rules.

Before the Xue family leaves Beijing, there are still several annual banquets to attend, one of which is November [-]th, the birthday of the Rongguo government official.

Jia Zheng's birthday is Xue Hong's least favorite banquet, bar none.

Most of the people who came and went were Jia Zhengyang's purveyors, all of them only knew how to flatter and flatter, and none of them were talented, and the words they said were so hypocritical that it was disgusting, and people didn't want to stay longer.

Fortunately, although Jia Zhu and Jia Lian went to toast, there were still Feng and Liu chatting with him during the dinner.

"Ziying has it been decided?" Although Feng Ziying is usually called by the name of Feng Ziying in the Imperial College, Xue Hong really doesn't like the word Zhaoda, which sounds like looking for a fight.

Feng Ziying took a sip from her wine glass, nodded and said with a smile, "Of course it is. Our family inherits martial arts, and now the Holy Majesty attaches so much importance to martial arts. He has granted permission for famous literary students to apply for the exam. Naturally, this opportunity should not be missed."

The Qing Dynasty was a world that came from horseback, and the monarchs of the Qing Dynasty paid great attention to military officers.In order to attract more brave talents to serve him, Lord Kangxi attached great importance to martial arts.

Moreover, in order to recruit all-round talents in civil and military affairs, Lord Kangxi said that talents in liberal arts can also take the exam for martial arts, and talents in martial arts can also take the civil examination.

But those who are really willing to take the exam are rare. People like Feng Ziying already have the reputation of being a scholar. If they come back from the martial arts exam, they will be like Confucius who has a sword in his waist - capable of both literary and martial arts.This gold content is undoubtedly much higher than those who take the martial arts exam alone.

Although it is said that military officers in the Qing Dynasty are the right way to be born in the army, followed by martial arts, but at Feng Ziying's age, the effectiveness before being sent to the army seems a bit small. He was unwilling to give up, so if he wanted to inherit his father's mantle, he had no choice but to start with martial arts.

Xue Hong nodded without saying anything. Liu Xianglian on the side asked: "Is the martial arts examination easier than the liberal arts examination?"

Feng Ziying saw his appearance and knew that this guy was thinking about taking the martial arts exam, so she said: "The emphasis of the martial arts exam is different from that of the Wenju exam. There are three exams in each exam. It is policy theory. The title of policy comes from "Sun Tzu", "Wu Zi", "Sima Fa", and the topic comes from "Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius". Afraid of this?"

"Then..." I saw Liu Erlang's bright eyes following Feng Ziying and Xue Hong's body like a spotlight, looking eager and uncertain, and desperately in need of affirmation.

Xue Hong patted Liu Xianglian on the shoulder with a "slap", and laughed loudly: "Haha, what's the matter, hurry up and prepare for the next martial arts~ I don't think Brother Ziying will mind if you step on him On the threshold of the house."

Feng Ziying is the son of the martial arts general Feng Tang. He has practiced martial arts for generations. This martial arts is not a day or two. Feng Tang was also a martial arts examiner. Xue Hong said this to express his love for Liu Xianglian. He is not good at all. Have the cheek to go to the Feng family to find resources?

Feng Ziying admired Liu Xianglian at first, so she didn't make any excuses: "What's the difficulty? Our family is full of military generals. If you simply live in my house, it will be of great benefit to your exam. It's just that you will pass the Sanyuan exam tomorrow." Don't forget me when the horses parade through the streets when you become the champion of martial arts."

Liu Xianglian had lost her parents a long time ago, and she was living with her aunt's family. Now that she heard Feng Ziying like this, it can be said that her righteousness is so insignificant. He was about to kneel down and kowtow to Feng Ziying. Feng Ziying loves talents and has been close to him for many years How can you be willing to accept this worship when you get along like brothers?
Seeing her at the side, Xue Hong picked up Liu Xianglian, and said with a smile: "From all families, there are those who are willing to do good deeds to gain fame and fame. You can live in their house and spread Feng Ziying's righteous name everywhere. You have to repay his kindness to you."

Liu Xianglian smiled with shame, knowing that Xue Hong was joking, she was very grateful to Feng Ziying in her heart, and only treated him as her own brother.

On this side Liu Xianglian raised her glass, but she didn't say a word of gratitude. The table over there was already in a mess, and a servant girl came running from behind, looking for Jia She without hesitation: "Where is Master Xi? Please forgive me quickly." Go to the master's house, the eldest wife is useless!"

 I just found out that there is a smart book cover today, so I chose one at random, hahahahahaha~ I couldn’t hold it back~???? I decided to change it back to the original one.If there are any friends who see the abnormal cover, I am sorry here, it is so hot to your eyes, I am sorry???? Also, please ask for tickets, please collect~
