Uncle Yao was relieved when he heard that Mrs. Yao didn't react much and her appetite was better than usual.
"That's good. It seems that this child is still caring. He knows how hard it is for you to be a mother, and I feel sorry for you."
Mrs. Yao raised her lips slightly and said softly: "Yeah, I didn't expect him to be so good. Even if I took him out to a party, if I hadn't been pregnant, they wouldn't have been able to tell that I was pregnant.
This child is indeed very well-behaved, so well-behaved, he must be a gentle and considerate good child."
The couple talked for a while, then went out together to say hello to Lu Qingling.
Gu Qingling was very well informed. She received the news when Uncle Yao got off the carriage.
However, she also knew that Uncle Yao would definitely clean up before coming to greet her, but she was not in a hurry. She played with Yao Jiuye first, until she heard the people below came to greet her, and then she carried Yao Jiuye to the front to see people.
As soon as Uncle Yao entered the door, he saluted Gu Qingling: "My son is unfilial, I have troubled you so much."
Gu Qingling asked him to get up and helped Mrs. Yao sit down next to him.
Then they exchanged pleasantries and asked Uncle Yao if his trip went well.
Because I never thought about whether Uncle Yao would pass the exam, no one has asked Uncle Yao how he did in the exam until now.
In the end, it was the second roommate. The second roommate knew that Uncle Yao was back and came over to say hello. Only when Uncle Yao said it himself, did everyone know that Uncle Yao had passed the imperial examination?!
"What, big brother, you passed the exam?!"
Mr. Yao stood up suddenly, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe it.
Uncle Yao was happy in his heart, but he smiled very reservedly: "Well, fortunately, I did not disgrace my life. Although it is Sun Shan's life, it is also a meritorious service."
"Oh my god?! My eldest brother is actually a Juren...Brother, you are really amazing. How long did it take for you to resume studying and recover? You actually passed the Juren exam all at once. I wish I had known that you were so good at studying.
I should let you study hard for the imperial examination, maybe you would have passed the examination long ago..."
"How can you know this kind of thing in advance?" Uncle Yao laughed, "When I was young, my mind was restless and I didn't have so much special training. It's hard to say whether you will pass the exam or not. As for you, you are a few years younger than me.
, there is still a chance, you have to work hard next year."
Second Master Yao felt guilty: "Brother, you can count on me for other things, just study... You will know in school whether I am good at studying."
Compared with the cultural classes that left him with a headache, Second Master Yao and the martial arts teachers found it quite enjoyable. He really felt that he was not born to study.
Because Uncle Yao passed the examination, the monthly income of the servants of the Yao family has doubled again this month.
Everyone was overjoyed, as if they were overjoyed, hoping that Uncle Yao would continue the exam and get the top scorer.
It's just that Uncle Yao knew his own ability. The scholar was named after Sun Shan, and the candidate was also named after Sun Shan. This was all a "lucky".
He discussed with Gu Qingling that he could go to the examination in March next year, but not to have too high hopes.
If he wins, he can continue to take the exam. If he fails, he can take the road of becoming an official. There is no need for a big official. He can choose a small local official, and after a few years of qualifications, when the time comes...
It just so happened that Gu Qingling had the same idea.
Uncle Yao has reached thirty, which is the time when a person has the best energy in his life. If he spends all his time studying, he may not be able to get any good results in the exam.
He is not a genius, he is just a scholar, and he got his name as a scholar by answering questions. Being able to pass the exam is really a matter of luck.
Instead of immersing yourself in studying and trying to win the Jinshi title that you may not be able to win, you might as well take the road of becoming an official. If you come from a poor family, it is not easy to take this road, but Uncle Yao is different. He has the title of Viscount himself.
, and has relatives by marriage in Beijing.
As long as you make some achievements in the local area, you will have the opportunity to be transferred back to Beijing.
After the mother and son finished speaking alone, Gu Qingling did not keep Uncle Yao anymore and let him go back to rest. As for the celebration, Gu Qingling thought about it and left it to Mrs. Yao.
Originally, Mrs. Yao had a big belly and should not work too much, but she was not afraid of overthinking it. Besides, it was her husband's big day, and she looked like she wanted to participate. Gu Qingling thought about it and decided not to be such a bad person.
However, she asked Mrs. Yao to choose someone to help her and acted in an expedient manner.
Just as Gu Qingling expected, Mrs. Yao was very happy. Even though she was a little tired, her face was full of joy, busy and fulfilled.
Mrs. Yao Anxin and Mrs. Yao were tired, so they gritted their teeth and gave her mother a hand.
Fortunately, Mrs. Yao was very experienced in banquet matters. She was surrounded by old people, so the banquet was organized very smoothly.
In addition to inviting members of the Yao clan in Jinling, Mrs. Yao also invited major aristocratic families in Jinling who had contacts with each other, and there were two seats for men and women.
That day, when the banquet began, Yao Anxin led Yao Anling, Miss Yao Qi, and Miss Yao Ba to receive the unmarried young girls; Yao Anhong led Yao Anyi to entertain the young gentlemen.
The adult male guests included Uncle Yao, Second Master Yao, and Third Master Yao himself. Ye Maosheng and Xie Xuefeng, who were engaged to the Yao family, were also invited. In addition, there were also officials from Jinling, big and small.
The ones in charge of the adult women's forehead are the team of Mrs. Yao, Second Mrs. Yao, and Mrs. Third Yao, headed by Gu Qingling. Among them, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao are pregnant. The second Mrs. Yao has just given birth and has to take care of two newborns.
Not long after, the pressure on the baby was basically concentrated on Gu Qingling.
If Gu Qingling hadn't been a first-class wife, facing so many people would have been a bit stressful.
I don't know if it was Gu Qingling's misunderstanding. She always felt that something was wrong with the way the prefect's wife looked at her daughters-in-law. She just subconsciously looked at them a few more times. Unexpectedly, a few days after the banquet ended, the prefect's wife brought her daughter and grandson.
Shang Ying came to the door and wanted to make a handkerchief with Yao Anxin.
Gu Qingling: "..."
Even if Uncle Yao succeeds in the exam, it's not important enough to have a prefect's wife personally punished, right?
"Old lady, you are so lucky. Look, the second lady gave birth to a pair of twins in her lifetime, and they are both sons. The eldest lady and the third lady are both pregnant... If it doesn't take long, you will
We are going to have two more grandchildren. I don’t know how many people are envious of this blessing." The prefect’s wife intentionally or unintentionally directed the conversation towards the children.
Gu Qingling smiled and said: "I didn't expect that I would be so lucky. After the first lady gave birth to Sister Xin, there was no news for more than ten years; the second lady only had a son and a daughter, and Sister Ling was six years old; the third lady
Also, there was no news for a long time after giving birth to a son... I was so anxious at that time, looking forward to it day and night, but I didn't expect that after so many years, they were all pregnant one by one. They were all pregnant together. For those who don't know,
I thought the three of them had made an appointment."
Because it was the prefect's wife who came to visit, Mrs. Yao, the second Mrs. Yao, and the third Mrs. Yao all had to show up to accompany her, and responded with a few smiles.
As for the charming guests, not long after entering the door, Gu Qingling followed the prefect's wife's instructions and asked Yao Anxin, Yao Anling, Miss Yao Qi, and Miss Yao Ba to take her to play in the yard.
Men and women are not seated at the same table when they are seven years old. It is not suitable for Yao Anhong and Yao Anyi to appear at this time. It happened that Uncle Yao had to go out to do something, so he took them away together.
