On September 13th, the Yongning Marquis Mansion set off dozens of firecrackers. For a moment, the entire streets and lanes were filled with smoke. Only congratulations were heard, but no one was seen coming and going.
The hall where guests were entertained was full of happy chatter, and the garden pavilion not far away was even more crowded with the younger generations of the Sheng family.
"Aunt Jiu, my mother said you are Jieyuan!"
"Aunt Jiu, my dad said you are at the top of the list!"
"Eh? So many titles?! Aunt Ninth, you are so amazing!"
"Yes! Yes! Aunt Jiu, should I call you Number One, or should I call you Jieyuan?"
Sheng Yuan stood in the middle of her nieces and nephews, listening to the childish words of these children, laughing and shaking her head, waving her hands humbly: "It's not that great, it's okay! It's okay!
...Well, when you meet me, you will naturally call me aunt when you should call me aunt, and aunt when you should call me aunt. "
When the children heard this, they immediately nodded vigorously in cooperation.
"Ahem, cough, actually, there are many names for the provincial examination results. Some people call it the Qiubang, some call it the Guibang, some call it the Ruibang, and some places like to call it the Dragon and Tiger list." Sheng Yuan blinked at these children.
Suddenly, the little guys understood the key points, and one by one they followed Sheng Yuan's words and used these titles flexibly.
Soon, Sheng Xiucai...oh, no, it should be said to be the Shengjuer...our Shengxiucai was instantly drowned out by these children's praises.
"You are really promising!" Sheng Ran came back for a rare visit, but she didn't see her sister. She went to find her without asking anyone, and sure enough, she plucked her out of the pile of little dolls.
"I said before that I had grown up, and it would be a good idea to turn around. I ignored my own big things, and instead went to the children to praise me!" Sheng Ran took the little girl back to the yard in front of the pavilion, scolding her as she walked, " If you want to hear good things, there are plenty of children in the front yard! Why bother dragging children to play!"
"Sister, even if you are the princess, you shouldn't reprimand the people at will!" Sheng Yuan smiled and straightened her clothes and made a sultry gesture to show that she was a person of merit!
"Don't say that you are a judge and I am the princess. Even if you are the chief minister and I am a commoner, just because I am your sister, I can train you!" Does Sheng Ran know the virtues of his sister?
This little girl is good at getting carried away!
Although she is not dancing, her invisible little tail has already been raised!
Sheng Yuan was shocked when she saw her sister smiling but not smiling!
"Okay! You're older and you have a point!" Sheng Yuan's arrogance dropped a little, and her obedient and clever look made Sheng Ran dumbfounded.
"You can be appointed an official if you pass the imperial examination. Although you must go all the way to the imperial examination, after all, you are not a child anymore. How can you not care about entertaining guests at home and instead bring your nieces and nephews with you? Go be the king of children!”
Sheng Yuan is not afraid of her sister at all most of the time, even if her sister scolds her with a straight face.
"I don't care about the praise from outside! They are not as sincere as the kids at home who have nine hundred scheming minds!"
Sheng Yuan was impatient to deal with this: "I know all the rules for welcoming and sending off. My parents are taking care of everything, so why should I make my ears feel uncomfortable!"
Sheng Ran suddenly had a headache when she heard the little sister's nonsense.
The little girl is becoming more and more willful!
Sheng Yuan was sitting next to her and noticed that her elder sister's face was getting worse and worse. She hurriedly hugged her arm and shook her: "Sister, your sister and I understand how the world works! Don't think too much about it!"
Since her elder sister got married, her behavior and speech have become more mature. Especially when facing her, Shengyuan felt that the age difference between the two sisters was not six, but sixty years!
Previously, those things that her sister couldn't even applaud when she saw them, but now they appeared in front of her sister, good guys, Sheng Yuan felt that the effect was just like poking a hornet's nest.
No! No! She needs to change the subject!
