Su Yiliang's face turned a little pale, and even the smile on Su Yijue's face was a little forced.
"Brother Liang, Brother Jue, and Yu Huai, the three of you will end up together with Xiao Qi this time. I am also admonishing you in this way. I hope you will not disappoint me." The old man said with a gentle face.
"Hey~ It's just a scholar test, why are you so nervous?" Su Wenqing muttered impatiently, "This formation made him speechless."
Thinking about what happened to him back then, it was just for fun. How could he have been warned so much now?
In fact, he didn't know that when he took the scholar examination, no one in the family was optimistic about it. After all, he was too young and it was his first time to fail. Who would have expected that he would win?
Everyone looked at Su Wenqing and were speechless.
It's not that they don't know how to refute, it's that they feel that they don't understand Su Wenqing.
"If you think it's easy, why don't you come back as a Jinshi?"
The elder couldn't stand Su Wenqing's casual attitude and couldn't help but reply.
Su Wenqing was immediately dissatisfied, "Isn't it because I contracted the cold and was carried out of Gongyuan on the way?"
"Then there will be a provincial examination next year. You can give it a try and impress us all." The third master snorted coldly.
When Su Wenqing heard this, his face immediately changed.
"Then I won't go. I almost lost half my life last time. How can I go again? Anyway, I don't want to be an official and I won't take the exam."
Regarding Su Wenqing's recklessness, the elder and the others were helpless. Anyway, the wall couldn't be held up by the mud.
However, Lu Yuhuai also had to die, which surprised everyone.
The third master was not very satisfied with his son-in-law because he was from a low background.
But since he is already his son-in-law, he shouldn't embarrass Lu Yuhuai too much. After all, his own face is also at stake.
"Yu Huai mentioned it to me before and said that he was going to end it. I originally advised him to think about it again before making a decision. However, his father has already signed up for him. There is no room for change in this matter. He might as well give it a try.
.”
The third master looked a little worried, but he still explained.
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. They felt that the son-in-law of the third wife was of too low a family background, but everyone was a decent person and would not say anything to his face.
Because he wanted to marry the Su family, the other heads of the house had already inquired about Lu Yuhuai's character.
After knowing that the other party had bad character, he sneered in his heart that such a person could be admitted as a scholar? It was just a waste of effort!
Su Muhua's expression changed. Listening to the whispers around her, her eyes became moist. She immediately blinked and held back the tears.
Su Yizhao felt a little unhappy. The third uncle was too uninterested in this son-in-law. Maybe he had never taken the second brother-in-law's education in school, right?
After all, he is his son-in-law. If his son-in-law loses his face, wouldn’t he lose his own face?
In fact, how did Su Yizhao know? Originally, the third master had given up on his daughter long ago.
I thought about marrying Su Muhua into the Lu family. In the future, the couple would stay with their parents-in-law and rarely return to the capital.
He was very dissatisfied with the eldest wife's suggestion to keep him in the capital and watch. He felt that the eldest brother just wanted to watch the jokes of their third wife.
Unexpectedly, not only did Lu Yuhuai not leave, but his mother also came to the capital specifically from her post and settled down in the capital. Wasn't this a clear indication that she wanted to keep the Su family under her control?
Su Yizhao felt aggrieved for Lu Yu in his heart, but Su Yiliang's eyes fell on Su Yizhao over there.
Su Yiliang glanced at Su Yizhao across from him with a livid face. Even the old man gave serious advice to this concubine, but he only dismissed the legitimate concubines like himself and Fifth Brother with a few words. Isn't this not preferring one to another?
Just because Xiao Qi has made a name for himself in the academy and has great promise, why is he ignoring them so much?
"I have never heard that my second brother-in-law is going to die. I would like to wish my second brother-in-law a successful start." Su Yijue said, cupping her hands towards Lu Yuhuai.
"Congratulations! Let's encourage each other!"
Lu Yuhuai didn't say much. No matter how much he said at this time, those people would think he was being whimsical.
This time, he was very motivated. He even asked Su Yizhao for advice in order to become a blockbuster.
Although there were some disappointments in this marriage, since I married Su Muhua, I had to compete with Su Muhua for respect.
He couldn't let Su Muhua be looked down upon and ridiculed all the time when he followed him back to the Su Mansion.
The purpose of hanging out with those dandies before was to climb into power and pave the way for the future. Now that the Su family has become a wealthy family, he no longer needs to live such a difficult life.
After the two exchanged a few polite words, Su Yijue smiled, and he was very moved.
"Xiao Qi, it seems that your grandfather is also very optimistic about your outcome this time. You have to do your best and don't let your grandfather down!"
Su Yizhao just wanted to smile bitterly! This old man clearly wanted to use himself to motivate the other two people, make them dissatisfied, and then work hard to get stronger!
On the surface, the old man values himself, but in his heart, he treats himself as a weapon!
But it also means to encourage myself, after all, I am also a descendant of the Su family!
"I will try my best, and I wish the fifth brother and the sixth brother can win the championship in one fell swoop!" Su Yizhao raised the glass of wine towards the two of them and drank it down first.
After the Chinese New Year, it will be 12. The family allows such a junior to drink some rice wine, but he will not let him drink too much.
"Okay! The four of us work together and hope that we can all get what we want!"
After Su Yijue stood up, he also said something inspiring.
Even though Su Yiliang was a little unhappy at this time, it was not easy to offend Su Yijue. After he got up, the four of them had a drink together.
"I have been studying at home before. I originally wanted to wait for another year to finish the exam, but there is a science exam next year, so my mother persuaded me to give it a try."
Lu Yuhuai chatted with Su Yijue at the table and then explained the reason.
Knowing that the Su family had a high status and looked down upon a small family like him, he only mentioned his fate to his father-in-law, Mr. Su and Su Yizhao.
It's just that the junior generation is taking the exam to become a scholar, which is common in official families, and the elders quickly turn their attention elsewhere.
In previous years, Su Wenqing would just sit for a while and then go back to the courtyard to rest. After all, he had to talk about some official matters every year, and he was not very interested.
But this year, everyone aimed cannon fodder at him, making it impossible for him to escape even if he wanted to.
"Fourth! Since you don't want to end up in this situation again, then starting from the beginning of next year, you can take charge of the general affairs of the government!"
The old man is no longer willing to let Su Wenqing go this time. He has been too indulgent to Su Wenqing these years, which has led to him being so lazy and lazy.
Su Wenqing was about to find an excuse to leave the table, but when he heard this, he frowned.
"I can't bear to take care of those general affairs. I have a headache!"
He waved his hands repeatedly, "Besides, it would be a loss of status for me to be the only person to be elected to take care of common affairs."
After all, he is a man of fame, so how can he do those trivial things?
