Out of curiosity, someone who usually interacted with the Xue family handed over the post.
Xue Jue usually socializes a lot, but now, the ones handed over to him are all asking him to bring his family members, or simply handing them over to his family members, which makes him very embarrassed for a while.
Wait until he went to find his son with a thick stack of posts.
Mai Fan, who had already experienced the joy of becoming a scholar and planned to return to school in a few days, pondered for a moment: "What are the things that you really can't shirk?"
“What other places are similar to our home that we don’t need to go to?”
Xue Jue had already prepared it. He split the post in half in the middle and pushed a pile of not too many in front of Mai Fan.
Mai Fan picked it up and took a look. Apart from the local academic and government officials who really should visit, there were only four or five more families there.
In these families, my mother, Aunt Xue, comes and goes frequently.
Mai Fan has long known that their family has a close relationship with each other, but he is really busy with schoolwork on weekdays. Except for visiting his father's house as a courtesy during the Chinese New Year every year, on other days, he even doesn't know where the gate of the other party's inner courtyard is. I don’t even know when I’m driving.
Therefore, Mai Fan asked specifically: "Father, what did these people not say they were for?"
If it's okay, wouldn't it be the same if we get together again during the Chinese New Year?
Unexpectedly, Xue Jue's face showed a profound expression: "These are your old relatives. Although you are not old now, you are still old enough to get engaged in a few years." .”
"Those people want to see it earlier. Don't they all want to see what the next generation of the four families will look like if they are admitted as scholars at such an age?"
"If it is true that everything is good, then those who have girls in the family can't prepare in advance to reveal something to your mother? After you have passed the provincial examination for three years, no matter whether you have passed or not, at this age It’s old enough to officially want to watch it.”
Mai Fan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Why didn’t the original Comrade Xue Pan do such good things?
When he took his sister to Beijing to join Aunt Wang of the Jia family, Xue Pan was already eighteen or nineteen years old.
But at his age, there is no one he likes around him, and he has never had a decent marriage.
Then why didn't these people come to see him during the years when he was walking sideways in Jinling?
Thinking of this, Mai Fan shook his head. Presumably, Xue Pan, the Hunshi Demon King, and Hun Buqing's reputation had already spread throughout Jinling.
As for the daughter of a good family, who would be willing to marry her biological daughter to the original Xue Pan.
So, Mai Fan shook his head: "Father, if it's for this kind of thing, you'd better push it for me."
"My son feels that my road to the imperial examination will not end as it is now."
"Do you think, after I pass the provincial examination, who among these people in Jinling can help me?"
"Didn't father realize that those families who really hold important positions in the government, or those who have been dealing with poetry and books for many years, have not sent many greeting cards to our family so far?"
"To put it bluntly, my son's achievements are not high in their eyes."
"In addition, just a small scholar hastily contacted our family. It is easy for their families to be tainted with the smell of copper and affect their reputation."
"To put it bluntly, my son still doesn't stand high enough. We are not in the same group."
"As for these families who have long been friends with our family, there is no need to meet them."
"As for my father, doesn't he know much more about them than I do, my son?"
"Son, I just want to ask you one question. All the families in Jinling, except ours, are not the same family as the four families, right?"
"Are those branch clan members worthy of being associated with the direct descendants of the Xue family?"
"It would be fine if there was a powerful person in their family, or a girl with a reputation far and wide."
"Not to mention being unknown on weekdays, as long as it doesn't spread a bit of notoriety, it can be regarded as a leader worthy of the four families far away in the capital."
"It's not that the son is arrogant, but a man like this still wants to see his son?" At this point, Mai Fan threw the pile of posts on the table: "It's a daydream!"
Wow... The red and white posts were spread across the table, and one of the most exaggerated ones caught Mai Fan's eyes for no apparent reason.
He pulled out the letter with his hands, and it turned out to be the Zhen family that he had never been to before.
"Why is this family thinking about posting a message for our family? Didn't they look down on our Xue family's family background in the past?"
Xue Jue, who was already convinced by what Mai Fan said, just glanced at it and smiled with a bit of disdain: "This is the intention of the family members in their backyard, and it was not handed to you in the first place."
"It's said that Zhen Baoyu, their baby egg, heard that our family has a child with good academics, and she clamored to meet this child who is the most popular child of the Xue family."
"That's what he said exactly. If I hadn't found someone to suppress this statement, you would really have become a joke in the eyes of scholars."
"Do you think this kid has been vicious since he was a child, or is it true that he doesn't even know about it?"
Mai Fan was a little curious: "What did he say?"
Xue Jue's face was a little angry: "He said that the Xue family brother is only a few years older than me. To be able to have such a good reputation, he must be a handsome person. I am sure I have to find a way to meet him."
"I just hope that the brothers of the Xue family won't be like those mediocre people who talk about poetry, books, and economics. I just want to see a good brother who is like a god, not a dull bookworm."
Based on this meaning, Xue Pan is being discussed as if he were a cat or a dog, which is really disrespectful at all.
Thinking of this, Mai Fan shook his head, threw the post back on the table, and said to his father: "No, I'm not the only one who's missing. Father, please tell your mother not to let her have any more contact with you." The Xue family has come and gone."
"Although I am studying in the academy, I have also heard many comments about Zhen Baoyu."
"He is only a year or two younger than my sister, but there are already eight eldest maids in the family and a dozen little maids waiting in the yard."
"I heard that he usually likes pretty girls, and the Zhen family doesn't think so."
"Today I hear that he is such an outspoken person. If our sister, a person like her, is seen by this Zhen Baoyu, and then passes through his mouth and talks such nonsense, my sister's reputation will be ruined. It’s really ruined.”
"You mentioned that at that time, our family will be forced to discuss marriage with the Zhen family."
"But with their high-minded attitude, will the Zhen family marry my sister as the official wife of their precious baby?"
Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: Shukeju
