Daiyu's stepmother is not easy to be

Pan Meizhen has been back in Shandong for more than a year, and she hardly has a day off.

He wakes up at five o'clock every day and goes to bed in the middle of the night, thinking that if he wins this subject, he can become an official as soon as possible, support his mother and sister, and let Wanyan see his determination after leaving the palace, so she can marry him with peace of mind.

Seeing that she got fifth place today, Pan Mei really knew that if there were no accidents, he would definitely have his name in the palace exam next year.

He had just cried bitterly, and he only felt comfortable physically and mentally, with a clear mind, and for the first time in front of Li Mingcheng, he showed his youthful edge again.

Li Mingcheng was amazed, and when he got home, he couldn't help but tell his family about this: "I thought Cousin Mei was a boring gourd, but I didn't expect that there would be such a time when he showed his sharpness."

This matter soon reached Governor Li's ears.

Originally, Governor Li was in a very happy mood because two of his younger sons had been awarded the prize, and both of them were Jingkui. Seeing that Li Mingcheng was not like in the past, he always calmed down and made him calm down.

But Li Mingcheng only got a good look from his grandfather for two days, and because of this incident, Governor Li called him into the room, and said to him with a haughty face: "Why are you so complacent outside again! You also exhausted your cousin!"

Li Mingcheng hated himself for being cheap!

When this happened, the family servants were not around, only he and Pan Mei really knew about it.

Pan Meizhen had never been a talkative person, but when she returned home, she became like a gourd. If she didn't tell her, how could her grandfather know about it!

Governor Li looked at Li Mingcheng bowing his head in remorse, but he didn't know what his grandson was thinking?

He blew his beard and stared: "There is no wall that does not leak air! Even if you don't tell me, I will know about it sooner or later!"

"Tell me, in public, speak boldly about what it's like to be a Jinshi in the middle of the year. The modesty and prudence I taught you in the past, have you learned it in the stomach of a dog?"

"Also, the two students you mentioned, even if they fail this year, they may not fail every year in the future!"

"These two people don't seem to be lenient. If people will hate you from now on, and meet in the officialdom in the future, you will use your insidious tricks to make you stumble, how long can you persist with your leaky temperament?"

Li Mingcheng saw his grandfather's chanting about Dafa and his strength again, so he quickly held his breath and pretended to obey the training obediently.

Governor Li talked for a long time, his mouth was dry, and his grandson was still the same as before.

He sat down and took a sip of tea, and asked: "But you and Mei Zhen won this ranking, it is indeed not difficult to be a Jinshi. Whether you are a first-class or a good scholar depends on the word 'fate' and 'luck'. It's just an ordinary Jinshi, have you thought about where you will be an official in the future?"

Li Mingcheng replied earnestly: "Go back to grandfather, if you can't enter the Imperial Academy, grandson plans to go to Shaanxi and Gansu."

"Wala deceives people too much. Sunzi is not a military general, so he can't kill the enemy to avenge Governor Pei. But to be a parent and official in the local area, so that the people in the frontier can live and work in peace and contentment, and the army has no worries about food and grass, is also something that Sunzi can do for the country within his power."

After Li Mingcheng finished speaking, he added another sentence: "Cousin Mei Zhen also has the same plan as my grandson."

There was a look of praise in Governor Li's eyes, he nodded and sighed: "You and Mei Zhen can have such a heart, but it is not a disgrace to our family's lintel."

"Go and get Mei Zhen here now. From today onwards, I will give you lessons in person every day. I won't lose the ranking next year, and I will be ashamed when I think about what I said today."

Li Mingcheng responded respectfully, turned around with his head down before leaving the door, and ran all the way to find Pan Meizhen to tell him the good news!

Grandfather is going to attend class in person, so hurry up!

Pan Meizhen just heard that second cousin Li was called to be scolded by her uncle, and she felt guilty, so she wanted to go out to her uncle, thinking about defending second cousin.

Just after leaving the door, Li Mingcheng arrived.When he saw Li Mingcheng, he quickly apologized and said, "It's all my brother's fault. I got angry for a while, but I got tired and scolded my brother."

Li Mingcheng didn't take it seriously at all, quickly took his hand, and said as he walked quickly: "Hey, what's the matter, I don't know how many times I was told by my grandfather since I was a child, I'm used to it. "

"Besides, it's all about those two people's cheap mouths, and I didn't pay attention to it myself. You are speaking for me. What does it have to do with you?"

Pan Meizhen took two quick steps to catch up, and said, "After all, it was my younger brother who lost his composure in front of everyone, so I let him stand up for me... Where are we going?"

Li Mingcheng slapped his head and hurriedly told him the business.

Pan Meizhen's eyes lit up, and she pulled Li Mingcheng and ran.

At Linchang's house in Suzhou, Mrs. Wei's eyes lit up when he talked about gifts from others.

Originally, the dowry gift of [-] silver was given to Miss Lian, which almost emptied the entire family.

Unexpectedly, when Chang'er won the exam, the 800 taels of silver that he went here returned more than [-] times in one go!

When did Lin Manwei hold so much money?Thinking about it again, Chang'er just won the Juren, so many people came to give money, and there were also those who came to rely on them to give away fields and land, and those who came to take the initiative to become slaves...

Lin Xing also changed into a new satin dress. The upper body was a water-red brocade jacket with osmanthus flowers embroidered in various colors, and the lower body was a crape myrtle-colored brocade skirt with a shiny satin border.

She followed behind her father, mother and brother, listening while walking, and kept touching a golden bead flower in her hair and a pair of golden orchids.The pair of gold bracelets in her hands felt cool when she moved them, and Lin Xing couldn't stop staring at them.

Although she usually wears silk and satin at home, she has never worn such a material that glistens in the sun, let alone so much gold jewelry on her head.

The pair of golden orchid hairpins and the gold bracelet alone weighed six and a half taels of gold, and would have weighed six to seventy taels in silver.

Not to mention this golden bead flower, the beads on it are round and round, even dozens of taels of silver are hard to buy.

No wonder people always say "Miss Qianjin", that is to say, the clothes and jewelry on the ladies of the big ladies can be worth thousands of gold.

Lin Xing thought flatteredly that her brother's official position would only grow bigger and bigger, and she would become a rich lady in the future.

Lin Manwei, Lin Xing, and Lin Manwei were all beautiful in their hearts, but no one noticed that Lin Chang's face was getting darker and darker, his brows were wrinkled, and his eyes were burning.

Finally, Lin Man said: "It's really 'one person attains the Tao, chicken and dog ascend to heaven', we are all under Chang'er's glory. Hehe, I really didn't raise this son in vain!" After that, Lin Chang couldn't hold back anymore .

He stomped his feet and waved all those family members who had come to join him as slaves to go out, closed the door of the house again, and said with a dark face: "Do mother and father want me to die without a place to die?"

The three Lin Man were stunned when they saw Lin Chang's actions, and Lin Xing was scared by her brother's black face and hid behind her mother.

Hearing his words again, the excitement of the three of them was completely frightened by this sentence.Lin Man said in surprise, "Chang'er, that's what you said!"

Wei Shi was also very puzzled, came up and took Lin Chang's arm and said, "My son, your parents have raised you up so much, they have ruined their entire family, paid you to go to school and married you, how could they harm you?"

Lin Chang was about to burst out with a thousand words in his stomach, and his face flushed red when he thought of his parents' kindness in nurturing him.

He sighed a long time, looked at his parents and said calmly: "Even if my son is young, he is still just a young man. Whether he will be a Jinshi or an official next year is still a matter of debate."

"Even if you become an official, you are only a seventh-rank county magistrate. It will take a few years for you to rise up. These people just send 2000 taels of silver to our house. Could it be that they are trying to curry favor with my son?"

Lin Man's heart skipped a beat, and he forced a smile and said, "Chang'er, you think too much. The most people gave me 200 taels of silver, and they are all officials. To them, it's just..."

Lin Chang took another deep breath, forced himself to calm down, looked at his father and said, "Father, do you know how much the salary of a Qipin county magistrate is?"

"Seventh grade, a total of 120 taels of silver a year! Sixth grade, only 200 taels a year! A thousand taels of silver is not a small amount for any family. If the son is not successful, how many years will our family have to save? "

"But now it's good. In three days, I earned a salary that my son couldn't earn for decades!"

Lin Chang finally couldn't help but burst into tears: "The Holy Majesty has been punishing corruption and accepting bribes in the past few years... If the parents continue to act like this, the son will be an official. I am afraid that within two years, the parents will visit the son. ..."

Lin Manwei's Lin Xing panicked, seeing Lin Chang collapsed on a chair and crying loudly, looking at each other.

Wei knew her son was right, but she couldn't bear to part with the money she had already got, so she forced a smile and said, "Changer's words are too serious."

"Those who are in prison are useless. Doesn't Master Shang Shu think highly of Chang'er? We also married Mrs. Su, so if something happens, he can leave our family alone?"

Lin Man echoed, "That's right, Chang'er, you're too worried. Besides, we're not the only ones who don't accept gifts for their children."

Lin Chang didn't care about his manners, wiped his tears with his sleeves, and took a few breaths before he could speak: "Just now my son said, whoever has a little juror in his family can receive eight thousand silver?"

"Giving a few dozen taels of silver is really to make a good relationship. But the hundreds of thousands of silver are given, do you really think that your son is worth so much money?"

He stood up with red eyes, choked up and said to his parents: "They are all hoping to curry favor with Uncle Shanghai, so they are willing to give up so much money and send it to our house."

"Our family has collected money, do we really want our son to go to Uncle Hai to mention their names?"

"If you don't mention it, our family has collected so many things for nothing, isn't it offending everyone to death?"

"Besides, how could my son have such a big face to speak for them in front of Uncle Hai! Uncle Hai took his son over and raised him with all his heart, but when he saw his son won the Juren, he ran amok..."

Lin Chang couldn't go on talking, seeing Lin Man and Wei's weeping again, knelt down and begged, "Father—, mother—"

Lin Man and Wei hurriedly tried to help Lin Chang up, but Lin Chang refused to get up, and he had to promise to return the large sum of money before getting up.

Lin Man was already a little loose, but Wei Shi calculated in his mind that he would have to pay back almost [-] million silver, and his heart throbbed in pain.

Seeing that Lin Man was about to open his mouth to speak, she quickly blocked him with her arm and gave him a wink.

Lin Chang knelt on the ground, feeling his heart getting colder and colder.
