It's not scary for Mu Zhen's own family to brag. What's scary is that Fang has already blown Mu Zhen to the sky in his heart.
In front of her eyes, she had already seen the scene where her daughter became the wife of a high-ranking official.
After hearing what her mother told her about Mu Zhen, Shen Runing was also full of expectations for her future.
Although Shen Jiwei is crazy, he also knows what it means for his daughter to get married.
He smiled and took the boy who had been taking care of him to secretly go near Mu Zhen's residence, hoping to meet his daughter's future bride.
Unexpectedly, he was beaten back with stones by a group of children.
These naughty children surrounded him and called him a fool, while beating him and the boy with stones so that their heads were covered with bruises.
There are too many naughty children, and the servant cannot protect them at all.
Shen Jiwei's face and body were covered with bruises, and his clean clothes became dirty and torn. He went home crying and complained to Mr. Fang.
Mrs. Fang was already disgusted with Shen Jiwei's stupid behavior, and when she saw Shen Jiwei's worthless look, she was even more disgusted with him.
He just said he was in pain and asked people to kick Shen Jiwei out.
Mrs. Fang really didn't care at all when Shen Jiwei and the boy kept saying, "The newcomers just watch the fun and don't come forward to help."
After all, if she saw someone beating up a fool on the street, she would never step forward to help him.
Don't go out if you are stupid, there is no need to be embarrassed!
In any case, Fang was ready to catch her son-in-law.
Fang watched Mu Zhen from a distance several times. Even on the day Mu Zhen went to take the exam, Fang quietly went to the examination room just to watch Mu Zhen enter.
Although Mu Zhen was a student from a poor family, he was always neatly dressed and looked somewhat like a down-and-out nobleman.
After looking at it several times, Fang was really satisfied with Mu Zhen.
He also taught these things to Shen Runing, which made Shen Runing feel excited and look forward to her future life.
Mu Zhen was indeed a good student. After the results were released, he became the leader of this subject.
When the first place's singing voice came out, the people arranged by Fang arranged for him to be carried back to the house immediately.
Normally, I only heard of people catching their son-in-law under the rankings in the imperial examination and the Jinshi examination, but I have never heard of anyone going to the college examination to catch someone under the ranking.
Everyone immediately became interested and followed the people sent by Fang to Shen Mansion.
After seeing the rich lintel of Shen's mansion, everyone fell silent.
Although businessmen have the lowest status, money is really a good thing, but this matter of the Shen family really makes it difficult for them to talk about it.
Everyone also didn't know what choice Chief Mu would make under the temptation of the Shen family's strong financial resources.
So consciously or unconsciously, he paid attention to the news about Shen Mansion.
Mu Zhen was carried close to Shen's Mansion along the way. He was originally very panicked, but after entering Shen's Mansion, his mood suddenly calmed down.
After all, he had never seen a house as wealthy as the Shen Mansion.
The person who carried him back had roughly told him what Fang meant.
After putting Mu Zhen down, the servants left one after another, allowing Fang to discuss the marriage with Mu Zhen in person.
Mu Zhen's mother was still at home, waiting for the news of her son's results.
Unexpectedly, before the news came back, I heard that my precious son who went to see the results released was actually captured in full view of the public.
Mrs. Mu immediately became anxious. With two kitchen knives strapped to her waist, she was about to go out to find someone to fight with.
Who would have thought that as soon as he arrived at the door of Shen's mansion, he would be respectfully invited in.
Hearing what Fang wanted to say, Mrs. Mu immediately wanted to take her son away. With her son's talent, Princess Shang would be more than enough in the future, so how could she be related to a merchant.
But Mrs. Mu is blind, but Mu Zhen has a ledger in his heart.
Now that he is the head of the case, he can receive 4 coins of silver and more than ten kilograms of rice every month.
But if this amount of money is used to rush for the exam, it is far from enough.
Everyone thought it was a good thing that he got the head of the case, but they didn't know that he also had his own troubles in his heart.
Not to mention that he has no money to take the provincial examination now. Even if he passed the provincial examination, he would still give up if he knew how to take the examination.
Because if he didn't have one or two hundred taels on hand, he wouldn't dare to go to the capital.
Now that all the things that can be sold at home have been sold, he and his mother are still living in the homes of several sisters.
My brother-in-law's family was very impatient with him and his mother living and eating for free.
If he dares to mobilize his brother-in-law to sell houses and land to support him in rushing for the exam, he will definitely be kicked out by his brothers-in-law as a wolf.
After all, he had already spent all the bride price of his sisters.
He could find a job in an academy and teach while preparing for the scientific examination, but he didn't want to waste his prime years.
After seeing the wealth of Shen Mansion, Mu Zhen suddenly felt that he had found a good way out.
Mu Zhen sighed when he thought that his husband had hinted that he would give his only daughter to him.
Although he and his junior sister have been friends since childhood, the husband's family is only a few dozen taels, so it seems that he can only let the junior sister who is knowledgeable and polite.
After weighing several times, Mu Zhen immediately made the decision to marry Shen Runing.
And he made an agreement with Mr. Fang that no matter how high he reaches in the future, he will never divorce his wife...
Shen Jiwei wanted to object because he didn't like the gentle smile that always hung on his uncle's lips.
Every time he saw Mu Zhen smile, Shen Jiwei wanted to cry because he felt that Mu Zhen wanted to bite someone!
After Mu Zhen agreed to the marriage, Fang seemed very happy.
Not only did he find the best teacher and academy for Mu Zhen, he even spent a lot of money to buy Mu Zhen a five-seater mansion at the foot of the academy.
It not only fulfilled Mu Zhen's desire not to live with his wife's family, but also preserved Mu Zhen's self-esteem.
In order for Mu Zhen not to worry about his livelihood, Fang also asked his servant to send Mu Zhen thousands of taels of pocket money on time every month.
He also beat Shen Runing from time to time, asking Shen Runing to be careful in her words and deeds, and to tolerate the Mu family mother and son in everything. She really planned everything for Mu Zhen.
Mu Zhen originally looked like a young master from a wealthy family, but with the financial support of the Shen family, he became even more upright and dignified, like a young man from a wealthy family.
No matter where he stands, he is the most eye-catching one among everyone.
After getting married, Mu Zhen was really kind to Shen Runing, and even taught Shen Runing how to read and write when he had nothing to do.
Mrs. Fang saw it and was happy in her heart.
It's just that Mrs. Mu still doesn't like this daughter-in-law who came from a merchant background. She is always picky and picky about her. She seems to hate Shen Runing for tarnishing her precious son.
Knowing that her mother-in-law didn't like her, Shen Runing worked harder to please Mrs. Mu, determined to be a good daughter-in-law that her mother-in-law and husband would like.
Let Mu Zhen not worry about household chores and just concentrate on his studies.
Sure enough, with the financial support of the Shen family, Mu Zhen no longer had any worries when studying, and successfully passed the Xie Yuan exam in the second year.
