Originally, Li Chen had no feelings for these things, but he couldn't hold Su Jinpa's interest away, so he was pushed aside to watch the fun.
It can be seen that the marriage family must be quite wealthy, and all kinds of ceremonial equipment are of high standard, which ordinary families cannot afford.
Amid the discussions among the people around him, Li Chen became a little interested in the groom.
"The groom is a foreigner. He heard that his family was poor, so he spent all his money to support his studies. He went to Beijing to take the exam last time, and after he failed in Sunshan, he had no money to go back. He stayed in the house of Mr. Lin in Tongzhou.
Being a teacher for the children of the Lin family, this back and forth has actually attracted the attention of the young lady of the Lin family."
"This time's scientific examination finally paid off, and I finally passed the imperial examination, so Mr. Lin finally agreed to marry his daughter to him. Wow, it's really inspiring."
"That's great..."
Su Jinpa looked at the groom not far away and said, "This can be regarded as lovers finally getting married, right?"
Li Chen smiled slightly and did not comment.
It would be fine if it were anyone else, but since he is a candidate for this year's imperial examination, Li Chen has read the detailed information. All of this information was specially investigated by Dongchang and the content is detailed.
Li Chen also remembered that there was only one candidate for the palace examination in Tongzhou, named Chen Shaohao. Li Chen had even read his previous papers. He was considered excellent and he deserved his place in the palace examination.
It's a pity that his character is not that good.
Seeing Li Chen smiling inexplicably, Su Jinpa was about to ask, but something unexpected happened at the wedding scene ahead.
"Chen Shaohao! You heartless man!"
A sharp and harsh female voice broke the festive silk and bamboo music and the entire joyful atmosphere of the scene.
Su Jinpa immediately followed the curious gazes of other people and saw a ragged woman on the street holding the hand of a child no more than three or four years old, standing there looking with extremely desperate eyes.
Chen Shaohao.
The moment Chen Shaohao, who was sitting on a tall horse enjoying the spring breeze just a second ago, saw the mother and son, his whole face immediately turned pale.
"father."
Beside the woman, the child squealed at Chen Shaohao.
Just such a sound instantly ignited all the people around him.
No matter what age or where you are, anyone who abandons his wife and children is definitely a scumbag.
"You, you, why are you here!?"
Chen Shaohao's voice was full of horror and disbelief, as well as a little bit of shame.
He tightened his grip on the reins, then suddenly turned over and dismounted, walked quickly in front of the mother and son, and said, "You go back first, can I explain this to you later?"
Snapped.
He responded with a slap from the woman.
I saw her bursting into tears, and said with grief: "I have been married to you for eight years, but you have been focused on studying and gaining fame. You have nothing at home. I take care of all the food, drink, and toilets by myself. Every morning before dawn, I have to get up and do the work."
Take the tofu and sell it in the market."
"A few years ago you said you were going to Beijing to take the exam, and the thirteen taels of silver you brought to you was what I saved by selling tofu for several years!"
"I was still pregnant at the time and sent you out of the city. I have been waiting for you for several years, but I haven't heard a word from you. Now, I come to the capital to find you, but I see that you are marrying someone else!"
