Chapter 260 Respect each other as guests (1)
"Okay, you are so quiet, you are so powerful, mother didn't know you had such ability." Du Yue'e joked.
"Mom, please stop making fun of me. I didn't do much at that time, but I just said it like this. Now that I think about it, I feel..."
Ling Yuke recalled the situation at that time, that was Sometimes I am happy, sometimes I am sad, but I always get the result I want.
"Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you."
Du Yue'e was very happy. She looked up at the face of God in the sky outside the window and said with emotion: "Supreme God, fortunately, I, Du Yue'e, gave birth to a good daughter and won such a good marriage for myself. It's really great." ! ”
"I tell you, the most important thing for a woman in this life is to marry a good husband, and then to have a good daughter who is up to date like me." Du Yue'e pinched her daughter's pink face and said, Said with a smile.
"Mom, but I study and practice so hard... taking the imperial examination is also important, right?" Ling Yuke didn't understand.
“You don’t understand, it’s just to give you more weight to find a good marriage.” Du Yue’e explained patiently.
My daughter is older and can no longer be so ignorant.
Then, she rolled her eyes at her daughter again and said angrily: "Besides, didn't you also choose to take the exam today just to get close to Mr. Wen? Originally, according to our wishes, you still graduated from Chang'an Academy smoothly. It would be safer to take the imperial examination."
"Mom! Stop talking," Ling Yuke said sheepishly.
"You also said that you made your father half angry to death because of this matter. Originally, your father was an examiner and you were an examinee. It doesn't sound good to the outside world."
"Humph, isn't that the same for brother Xuanning?" Ling Yuke was a little unconvinced.
"Yes, his old Wen family can do it, why can't our Du family's daughter do it?" Du Yue'e sneered, never mentioning the Ling family, even though Ling Yuke's surname is "Ling".
This also represents a certain attitude of Du Yue'e.
Ling Yuke had long been accustomed to her mother's attitude towards the Ling family. She didn't pay attention to this sentence, but she remembered something.
"Mom, I remember that you also scored very high in the exam, didn't you?"
Ling Yuke's mother was a first-class Jinshi at that time. If she hadn't married her father when she was studying in the National Academy of Sciences, As soon as I go to college abroad, I will get married and become a good housekeeper. I guess I can also become a moderate official.
"Yes, if you didn't have this Jinshi status, how could you be with your father?" Du Yue'e's face changed slightly, and then she squeezed out a stiff smile, "At that time, how many people were staring at you to catch their son-in-law? Dad, you must know that the number one scholar is very popular.”
"That's right. Dad is talented, and he is the eldest son of the Ling family. His status is inherently valuable."
Ling Yuke still admires his father very much, and he holds his head high when he talks about it.
When Du Yue'e heard this, she sneered calmly: "What a pity, it's a shame to drive high and go low."
"Mom, why do you say that? Isn't dad very powerful now?" Ling Yuke frowned slightly.
Who in the world doesn’t know that Ling Fu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, was the number one genius in engineering in the Tang Dynasty. He invented many magical weapons and benefited countless people.
Because of this, Ling Yuke has been favored since she was a child. When outsiders know that she is Ling Fu's daughter, they can't help but tolerate, pay attention to, and favor her.
"What's so great? That's all for outsiders to watch." Du Yue'e sneered, "Think about who was the first person to follow the Holy Master who was still in the dormitory, and who was the most capable of following the dragon. , but who is still a small minister now? "
"Your future father-in-law was much worse than him, but what happened?" Du Yue'e said with a face full of hatred. Steel, gritted his teeth and said.
The mention of "future father-in-law" made Ling Yuke extremely embarrassed.
"Look at the direction of the wind. Soon, Li Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, who only knows how to steer with the wind, will climb on top of him." Du Yue'e said with a sneer.
I get angry when I think of my incompetent Number One Scholar, Prime Minister, because of his potential. Who would have thought that the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry would last for more than ten years.
Hmph, he really came from a small place. He has a petty attitude and only knows how to tinker with useless things.
Fortunately, I have become more enlightened recently.
But there is no need to let Ling Yuke know this. Du Yue'e quickly straightened her expression.
"It's a good thing that you and Wen Xuanning are together. He comes from a good background and doesn't have inexplicably poor relatives." She meant something, but Ling Yuke didn't know anything about it.
“Remember, don’t be with people who are not in your circle, whether it’s friends or men, they will only drag you down.”
After listening to my mother’s repeated emphasis, Ling Yuke's ears became calluses when she heard it, but when she thought of today's events, she nodded heavily: "Mother is right, my daughter will remember it."
...
Du Yue'e from When I walked out of my daughter's room, it was already dark.
I don’t know if my cheap husband has come back. He has been staying in the palace for several days, right?
Originally, she thought she would be able to come back after the examination, but she didn’t expect that it would take two more days. If it wasn’t really someone from the palace who informed her, she would have doubted whether it was a deliberate lie.
But if he really has a confidante outside, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, the two of them are just like thousands of high-class couples in Chang'an, living under masks.
Unexpectedly, when Du Yue'e returned to the room, she saw that Ling Fu had finished bathing and was leaning on the soft couch looking down at something.
"Are you back home?" Du Yue'e asked.
“Yes.” Ling Fu replied without even raising his head.
"Don't say anything?" Du Yue'e frowned and asked again.
"Well, I thought it would be nice to come back and talk face to face." Ling Fu remained cold.
"What are you looking at?" Seeing that Ling Fu was still looking like that, Du Yue'e walked up to him and leaned over to take a look.
All I saw was a palm-sized square object. It was as light and thin as a spiritual message, but the material seemed to be made of metal and crystal. The edges and corners were clearly polished. It was a craft that I had never seen before.
Ling Fu did not expect that Du Yue'e would suddenly approach. He coughed lightly and put the object back into his storage bag as if nothing had happened.
"Nothing, just weird things collected from the weaving courtyard."
"Why bring this unclean thing into the house?" Du Yue'e was a little disgusted. She always stayed away from weird things. .
Back then, Ling Fu wanted to study weird things in the Weaving Institute, but she blocked him in every possible way. Only then did he become the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, who is now famous all over the world.
Du Yue'e was quite satisfied with what she had done back then. She still had to learn how to control things like men.
This can make your life comfortable.
"It doesn't matter, it has been purified. It just looks interesting, let's play with it." Ling Fu didn't care about Du Yue'e's attitude and answered calmly.
Then, there was silence for a moment.
This has been a common scene for them for decades.
After a long while, Ling Fu actually asked: "Yuke, how are you?"
Ling Fu saw that Du Yue'e had returned to the room so late, with undiminished kindness on his face and a smile on his lips. , I guess I just came back from Ling Yuke, so I asked him a question.
He hasn’t seen his precious daughter for a long time, and he misses her too.
"She..." Du Yue'e didn't know what Ling Fu wanted to ask, but she still picked something to say, "I didn't get into the top few in the exam, and I wasn't very happy when I came back last night..."
< br>Ling Fu fell silent. Thinking of his daughter being eliminated by Wen Xuanning's sword in the mirage, his heart hurt.
Three updates today!
