Chapter 4745: Reluctant to give up
"Both of them seem to have passed the Tongsheng exam, right?" Cao Bamei asked.
Yang Ruoqing nodded, "At the beginning of spring, I just passed the Tongsheng Examination. My aunt is looking forward to the stars and the moon, hoping that the two of them can pass the Scholarship."
Zhang Ban said: "Today's events On August 26th, at the end of September, the Changhuaizhou Association held a college examination, which was personally supervised by the prefect. After taking the examination, the children who are selected on merit will be promoted to students, which is what we call scholars."
Cao Bamei asked Zhang Ban tentatively: "Brother-in-law, you have been here and now you are teaching in the academy. It depends on you. Let’s see how sure Gemini is of being admitted as a scholar.”
Zhang Ban thought for a moment, "My younger brother Wang Baiqiang will definitely fail this year's college exam. We don't know what the next year will be. But if my older brother Wang Baisheng works hard and performs better than usual during the exam, there is still hope that he will pass." Scholar."
"However, there are exceptions to everything, and my words can only be used as a reference."
Cao Bamei and Yang Ruoqing both nodded, feeling that Zhang Ban was right.
Zhang’s father was calling Zhang Ban downstairs. It seemed that someone from his uncle’s and grandpa’s house was leaving after dinner, so he called Zhang Ban to go down and deliver them together.
Zhang Ban said goodbye to Yang Ruoqing and Cao Bamei, and hurried downstairs to see off the guests.
In the room, Cao Bamei and Yang Ruoqing said in surprise: "In the past, everyone said that Zhang Ban was silent and difficult to get along with. Now that we have talked to him so much, I feel that Zhang Ban is not what others say." , very easy-going, answers whatever you ask, pretty good!"
Yang Ruoqing also nodded with admiration, "I have a poetic and scholarly spirit, Zhang Ban is very good in character, conduct, and conversation. It’s good for us, Xiaojie.”
“The so-called reticence is just related to the fact that the men and women of the villagers don’t talk to each other, so they are silent.”
Cao Bamei nodded repeatedly: "I think such a man has a good personality. I don't like men who talk too much, just like a myna!"
Yang Ruoqing covered her smile.
Xiaojie on the bed was secretly happy when she heard the two of them commenting on Zhang Ban.
But he still said deliberately: "Hey, you two have to deal with him a little more, and then you realize that he is actually an honest person. But for my mother, who doesn't like to deal with Zhang Ban , or for women who can’t go together , a son-in-law with Zhang Ban’s character is not lovable.”
“For those mother-in-laws, the kind of son-in-law who can talk sweet words to please her is probably Zhang Ban, right? You can't learn it even if you die!" Xiaojie said.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Everyone has his own way of doing things. There are hard-working sons-in-law who please the mother-in-law and help with the things when they come to the father-in-law's house, and there are also son-in-laws who are taciturn, but said In the end, the mother-in-law took her daughter When marrying a son-in-law, what really matters is whether the son-in-law is truly considerate to his daughter."
"As long as Zhang Ban is truly considerate to you, no matter how taciturn he is, my uncle and aunt will feel at ease. ”
"There are some men who are extremely mean to their wives at home, shouting and drinking, but when they go to their father-in-law's house to have a drink or something like that, it's just ridiculous and of no use at all! Bamei, don't you think so? Yang Ruoqing asked.
Cao Bamei quickly nodded and said: "Yes, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her, the more she likes him. Don't worry, Xiaojie. Your mother doesn't say anything, but her heart is bright."
"I'm not here right now, what are you doing behind my back?"
Da Sun's voice suddenly sounded behind her, and people entered the room immediately.
"Mom, please keep your voice down, your granddaughter just fell asleep!" Xiaojie said angrily.
The eldest Sun was startled, and quickly covered her mouth, then tiptoed to the cradle, leaned down and looked at her little granddaughter, her eyes and eyebrows were full of love.
“Tsk, tsk, she looks so good-looking, much prettier than when Xiaojie was born.” Mrs. Sun praised while looking at it. Xiaojie was not happy to hear this.
"Mom, was I ugly when I was born? Even if I am ugly, I was born by you. It's up to you." She said.
Da Sun turned her head and glared at Xiaojie, "Look, those cheeks are bulging. You are so childish even though you are a mother. Eat your noodles quickly. The chicken soup noodles will become fishy after they cool down. , you are picky about food, and you won’t eat when the time comes..."
Once Mrs. Sun began to ramble, Xiao Jie was at a loss and hurriedly lowered her head to eat the last few bites.
Here, Mrs. Sun also sat down, sitting next to the cradle and guarding the child.
Xiaojie caught a glimpse of these from the corner of her eyes, and her heart felt soft and warm silently.
"Hey, what on earth were you talking about me just now?" Da Sun blinked at Cao Bamei and Yang Ruoqing again and asked curiously.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled. Her aunt just said that Xiaojie was childish. Isn’t she like a curious baby even at her age?
It seems that Xiaojie's childishness is just following her, hahaha...
Cao Bamei knows the character of Dasun, so if she doesn't tell her, she will pester you all the way.
So, Cao Bamei told her what happened before, and added at the end: "We didn't arrange it for you, we were just praising you."
Da Sun smiled He smiled, then turned his head and said to Xiaojie: "Mom, neither "I don't like Zhang Ban. Mom is just telling the truth. Zhang Ban's character is indeed like that!" I don’t care about the character.”
Da Sun said: "As long as you care about it, that's fine. Besides, now that you have given birth to a baby, we have nothing to say about my uncle's character. Mom still said the same thing. As long as he treats you and the baby sincerely, we will rest assured." "
Xiaojie curled her lips and smiled, her eyes filled with happiness and sweetness of being a new mother.
In the middle of the afternoon, other guests from the Zhang family had left one after another, and only the Sun family was left.
After discussing with Mrs. Sun, it was time to go back.
When it was time to go back, Xiaojie, who had deliberately quarreled with Da Sun before, suddenly stopped laughing. Her eyes were soft, following Da Sun's figure, and she pursed her lips lightly as if she was trying her best. Control something.
Yang Ruoqing saw Xiaojie's thoughts and took advantage of the elders to chat together and came to Xiaojie's bedside.
"Confinement period is very important for women. If the confinement period is not taken care of well, it will leave the root of the disease all over the body. After we go back, you should rest assured during the confinement period and don't think about it. When you are out of confinement, take care of it when the time comes. Take the baby back to Changping Village to stay for a while."
Xiaojie looked up at Yang Ruoqing and nodded lightly.
Yang Ruoqing raised her hand and rubbed her cousin's head again, "Although a woman is weak, a mother is strong. Now that you have a daughter, you can't be childish anymore. Take care of yourself during the confinement period. What's the matter? Let Zhang Ban do the work, and my aunt and uncle will definitely come to see you again.”
