Read my heart, my whole family was forced to clean up

"I'm telling you, go talk to your cousin and ask him to bring your father and brother over. It's okay if he doesn't want to bring them over, just let them come over on their own and take some money."

Mrs. Hu carefully placed the gold hairpin in the box.

When she turned around, she saw her daughter.

She hurriedly took it out again and put it in her arms, thinking that she would hide it again after her daughter went out.

Chen Yan was used to Hu's behavior.

Whenever my mother had anything good, she would save it for my younger brother, as if she was afraid that my younger brother would snatch it away.

Chen Yan didn't care about these. It was like this in the countryside. Every family treasured their son and left everything to their son.

Chen Yan sat on the stool and said helplessly, "Mom, Dad and my brother are doing well in the countryside. We have so many good things, enough for them to live well in the countryside for several lifetimes."

"What do you mean? Are you saying you don't plan to let them come over? They are your father and your brother, you have no conscience."

Hu was so angry that she pinched Chen Yan a few more times.

Chen Yan hissed in pain a few times, she touched her arm, feeling helpless.

When she came to the capital, her mother wanted to come with her.

Originally she planned to come alone, and then bring them over when she became an official's wife.

There are too many people and accidents are likely to happen.

It’s better not to come until things meet your expectations.

Seeing that dad and brother are lazy and gluttonous, it’s better not to make trouble for them.

She and her cousin grew up together, so she had some understanding of his personality.

The arrival of dad and brother will only make things worse.

"Mom, it's not easy for my cousin to take us in. Do you want to be kicked out?"

Mrs. Hu straightened her back as a matter of course and said coldly, "Drive him out? He dares. I am his aunt."

"Oh, yes, an aunt who has never helped him. Mother, don't forget that your cousin is an official now. He is not alone. Are you sure you can defeat your cousin?"

Hu narrowed her eyes.

My daughter's words make sense.

But she missed her husband and son.

She and her daughter are enjoying a good life here, while the two of them are still suffering in the countryside.

"I don't care. Capture your cousin as soon as possible and bring your father and brother over."

"understood."

Hu took Chen Yan aside and talked to her for a long time, mainly about her father and brother.

After Chen Yan left, Mrs. Hu pulled out a box from under the bed.

Inside are all the treasures she has collected. During this period, many people have given her gifts, and she accepted them all.

Looking at the box of treasures, Mrs. Hu smiled so hard that her mouth was about to drool. She thought that she had made the right decision to come to the capital city for its wealth.

My husband and son, just wait for me. I will take you to the capital as soon as possible to enjoy life.

......

The scientific expedition flashed by in the tense atmosphere.

Both the candidates and the examiners are very tired.

After the scientific expedition, the tense atmosphere did not ease, but became even more suffocating.

Before it was announced, everyone was worried.

After the scientific examination, if we had to say who was the busiest person, it would be Ma Ke.

He is very busy as he does everything by himself and he also has to keep an eye on the marking of the papers to make sure there are no mistakes.

In addition to these, there were many people who wanted to see him, all of them high-ranking officials, and they talked to Ma Ke openly or secretly about some of their disciples.

Some even gave notes directly.

Ma Ke sat in the chair, looked at the note in his hand and sneered.

They are really bold. No wonder the emperor attaches great importance to imperial examinations. After this one, I don’t know how many right-hand men will be added.

He burned the note and leaned back in his chair.

Thinking about the people who saw him these days, many people looked for him, but one person did not.

Prime Minister Zhang.

He also had his own disciples, but they never appeared in front of him, not even the prime minister's men.

"Ugh."

Ma Ke sighed. In fact, what he wanted most was to meet Prime Minister Zhang.

But it doesn’t matter. He knows who the prime minister’s disciples are, and that’s enough.

He would definitely help her so that she could live a carefree life in the palace and not cry so often.

Even the emperor cannot bully her.

No one can bully her.

No one can.

"My Lord, you've been tired all day. Do you want to go out for a walk? It's quite lively outside."

Ma Ke looked at the official who wanted to invite him to go out for a walk and nodded.

I want to go out for a walk. I've been so tired lately.

Exhausted both physically and mentally, he followed the petty official for a walk on the street.

The street was very lively, and watching people coming and going, Ma Ke felt much more relaxed.

"Sir, would you like to have some wontons? The wontons there are pretty good."

Ma Ke nodded and followed his subordinates to the wonton stall. A middle-aged couple bought the wontons.

There are quite a few people eating it.

"Sir, there is a seat here, please take a seat."

After Ma Ke sat down, he looked around. There were quite a lot of people there and it smelled good.

The subordinate sat down opposite him and said with a smile, "Sir, although this is a small stall, the taste is very good."

"Mm, it smells really good."

"Hahaha, yes, I often come here to eat."

"Boss, two bowls of wontons, please."

"okay."

Ma Ke chatted with his subordinates and felt much more relaxed.

"Daddy, this is it. This one is the best. My sister and I come here often. It's delicious."

"You kid, why are you eating wontons so late at night? If your mother knew, she would probably scold you. You are about to get married, you should be more sensible."

"Hahahaha, if you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who will know? I will even pack it up and bring it to your daughter-in-law."

"You, you, you...it's so late, everyone has already gone to bed, stop making trouble."

"Hehe, no nonsense, no nonsense, just bring dad here to eat."

Ma Ke looked at the father and son who were talking and laughing, with surprise flashing in his eyes. He didn't expect that there would be another surprise after coming out.

"Sir, your wontons are ready."

"it is good."

The subordinate handed the chopsticks to Ma Ke, very enthusiastically, "Sir, try it quickly, it's delicious, I like to eat this one, after eating a bowl, the whole person feels comfortable."

"it is good."

Ma Ke picked up the chopsticks and took a bite. It tasted very good, very good.

He lowered his head, ate wontons, and listened to the conversation between the father and son at the next table.

Zhang Xuanhe was sitting opposite Prime Minister Zhang and introducing wontons to him with a smile, which made Prime Minister Zhang feel helpless.

"Look at you. Why are you not sleeping at night and eating wontons? Oh, you are the best. You come out whenever you want. Poor your sister, she is trapped in the deep palace. Oh..."

Zhang Xuanhe, who was originally smiling, also looked depressed.

He held his chin with both hands and said, "Yes, poor sister, ah, my sister is really pitiful. If she married an ordinary person, she would definitely live a happy life."
