The streets of Yuncheng are bustling and lively.
Cheng Wanwan and Lu Yingxue walked around the street and bought a lot of good things.
Towards evening, the two of them returned home. As soon as they reached the door of the yard, they heard someone talking inside.
Isn't this voice Qian Hui?
Shouldn't this kid be in the examination room?
Cheng Wanwan thought she had heard wrongly, so she hurriedly walked in and saw Qian Hui and Leng Rushuang sitting at the stone table in the yard, talking.
"Auntie is back!" Qian Hui immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile, "Wow, why didn't Auntie ask Cheng Jia and the others to follow Auntie when she went shopping? It's so tiring to carry so many things. Come on, come on, I'll help Auntie carry it. Get in."
Cheng Wanwan put the things on the stone table and frowned: "Stop looking so playful and smile quickly, tell me quickly, what's going on?"
Qian Hui scratched his chin: "Auntie also knows that I am not good at studying at all. I was able to pass the exam last year because of the blessing of my ancestors... Ahem, of course, it is also because Master Yu won the question. I heard This year's provincial examination is very difficult, so there is no need for me to ask for trouble. Auntie can understand, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense." Cheng Wanwan looked at him seriously, "Tell the truth."
Although this kid Qian Hui is not serious, he is restrained by the old man Qian, and he is quite diligent in studying. Even if he knew that he would not pass the exam, he would never run out on the first day after entering the exam room. There must be someone else in the middle. Hidden story.
"Let me tell you." Leng Rushuang came over, "My husband doesn't want to tell Shuren about this because he is afraid that she won't be able to eat or sleep well these nine days, but I think she must know this. , only by knowing that there are villains in the dark can we take preventive measures."
She briefly recounted what happened in the exam room that morning.
"Oh my God, these people are so courageous!" Lu Yingxue looked angry, and then her heart trembled, "Sister Wanwan, could it be that those people wanted to plot against Xiao Zhan, but they made a mistake in the calculation? Dantou must be in trouble... Xiaozhan and Sidan are the same age, and their household registrations are in Dahe Town, Ping'an County. They must have mistaken the wrong person, my God, Sidan prevented Xiaozhan from disaster..."
Cheng Wanwan shook his head: "It should be for me."
The relationship between her and the He family was already incompatible, and the He family couldn't bear to take direct action against her, so they planned bad ideas on her son.
Dashan rarely goes out in Dahe Town, Ergou is smarter and smarter, and Sanniu is protected by He Xiao in the capital, so the He family can only start with Sidan.
After she came to Yun Province, she asked Cheng A and Cheng B to be more careful and vigilant in everything, but they never expected that something could happen once they entered the examination room.
The He family actually bribed the officials in the examination room...
She raised her eyes and looked at Qian Hui: "This matter has nothing to do with you. You shouldn't have given up the opportunity of the provincial examination to Sidan, you..."
"Why are you telling me these things? I can't be grateful to you." Qian Hui said with a nonchalant expression, "I couldn't pass the exam in the first place, so it would be too much trouble for me to spend nine days and nine nights... That's right, I My grandfather may need help from my aunt to explain, otherwise I will definitely be punished by kneeling in the ancestral hall..."
Just as he was talking, Mr. Qian's angry voice sounded outside the yard: "Qian Hui, you rebellious grandson, get out of here!"
Qian Hui was so frightened that he hid behind Cheng Wanwan.
"The Qian family has put so much effort into cultivating you, and you just ran away without even trying. You have brought shame on our Qian family and our ancestors!" Mr. Qian rushed in like a firecracker, "Don't hide behind the lady. , this time, the lady can’t protect you either..."
Leng Rushuang hurriedly advised: "Grandpa, things are not what you see..."
"My granddaughter-in-law, go and watch from the sidelines." Mr. Qian was very angry. "Don't think that I won't dare to teach you a lesson after you get married. This is simply outrageous..."
"Mr. Qian, calm down." Cheng Wanwan held down the old man's waving arms and sighed, "This time Hui'er was trying to protect Si Dan from disaster, so he had no choice but to leave the examination room early. Such a great kindness. , I, Cheng Wanwan, have taken it to heart, and no matter what the Qian family needs help with in the future, as long as Mr. Qian asks, I, Cheng Wanwan, will never refuse."
Mr. Qian quickly calmed down: "What on earth is going on?"
Leng Rushuang once again explained the matter simply in a few words.
"It's unreasonable. It's simply unreasonable. Such a thing would happen in the provincial capital Gongyuan. It's ridiculous!" Mr. Qian looked at his grandson, "Hui'er, you've done a good job. You are worthy of our Qian family. After returning home this time, , just ask for whatever you want, and grandpa will buy it for you."
Qian Hui: "..."
Grandfather's change of attitude was so fast that he was caught off guard!
"My lady, this matter must be investigated carefully!" Mr. Qian said with a cold face, "Those people in Gongyuan can make trouble when they enter the venue. There are still eight or nine days left, and there will be more opportunities to cause trouble. I don’t know if Sidan will suffer, so we need to find out quickly and remove that person from Gongyuan!”
Cheng Wanwan nodded: "Of course we have to check, but it's not easy to check."
Her home court is in Dahe Town, and of course she can enjoy it in Huzhou. She doesn't have any acquaintances at all in the provincial capital.
However, acquaintances all become strangers. If you are not familiar with them, then gradually become familiar with them.
She thought for a while and said, "I didn't alert anyone when I came to the provincial capital this time. I even asked Mr. Qian to help spread the news that I was in the provincial capital."
This matter was not a big deal at all. Mr. Qian agreed immediately, and then went to spread the news without stopping.
There are teahouses and restaurants everywhere in Yun Province, and it is very convenient to spread news. In just one night, the news that Sui Shuren was accompanying her son to the provincial examination in Yun Province spread.
The next morning, Cheng Wanwan received a post from the governor's wife inviting her to enjoy the flowers.
The largest official in this provincial capital is the second-grade governor. The governor's wife, through her husband's honor, is also the second-grade imperial wife, slightly higher than Cheng Wanwan.
However, there are a lot of second-grade titles like the governor's wife in the whole country, but Cheng Wanwan is the only one in the country who has titles that come from real meritorious service.
In the afternoon of the same day, Cheng Wanwan went to the governor's mansion for a banquet.
Lu Yingxue is a person who likes to join in the fun, so she insists on going along.
Thinking that Lu Yingxue was a bit familiar and could quickly establish contact with people she didn't know even on such occasions, Cheng Wanwan naturally agreed.
The two of them took a carriage to the courtyard behind the Governor's Mansion. Mrs. Qi got off the carriage first, and then helped them get out of the carriage. After standing at the door, Mrs. Qi handed the invitation card to the concierge.
"It turns out you are from Suishu!" The concierge's attitude instantly became extremely respectful, "If you are from Suishu, please come in. Someone will guide you when you enter, so walk slowly."
After walking in, a maid led the way and walked straight to the garden of the other courtyard. In the autumn season, the chrysanthemums were in full bloom, and the flowers of various colors were displayed enchantingly, which was very eye-catching.
At this moment, many people had arrived in the yard, chatting and laughing together.
The maid stood at the entrance and reported: "Madam, Sui Shuren has arrived."
Almost instantly, the courtyard fell silent, and all the ladies immediately stood up and looked in Cheng Wanwan's direction.
