Chapter 35: The playful young master his father (13)
"Son, it's for my mother, don't worry, it's not for you, but also for Xuan'er. Pearl refused, and said that I was not feeling well, so I went to Zhuangzi to rest." The old lady said quietly.
In fact, she still quite hoped that someone would come to see her. When people are old, they just want to be more lively. It's a pity that the one who loves to be lively is not someone who cares about her seriously.
In order to make the old lady happy, Wu Qun specially accompanied the old lady to the Longevity Mountain outside the capital on the days of rest. On the way back, she specially bought the old lady's favorite fruits and vegetables. It is the fresh food that the old lady picked directly from the crops.
Seeing that the old lady was still thinking about her previous life, Wu Qun vacated a piece of the garden at home for the old lady to grow some vegetables or something. The old lady has something to do, so she doesn't frown all day. But as soon as Wu Qun came back, he told him how much taller her vegetables had grown today, how many had grown, and when did they eat them.
Wu Qun listened patiently and accompanies the old lady to the ground most of the time. Anyway, even if it is known at home, it is no big deal. But after Wu Xuan found out, he would come to the old lady on time every evening to see her dishes. The old lady who provokes it is 10,000 people who are worried that this little ancestor will accidentally spoil the vegetables she has worked so hard to cultivate.
The days passed slowly, and Wu Xuan soon ushered in the first exam in his life.
"Dad, I can definitely do it, don't worry." Wu Xuan was very thickly dressed, but he still stomped his feet in place, because February in the capital was still very cold.
"Xuan's children's test has five consecutive exams. You should wear more clothes. Don't worry too much. We will take the test next year. After all, you are still young." Wu Qun comforted Wu Xuan, who was a little anxious before leaving.
"Father, what are you talking about? Your son has worked hard for half a year just to fail the exam? You underestimate me too. Besides, my brother Chunwei has also begun, you should worry about whether he will be able to be admitted to the jinshi. It's true, you can rest assured." Wu Xuan pouted extremely dissatisfied, how could his father raise other people's ambition and destroy his own prestige? He actually said he couldn't pass the test.
Wu Xuan and his friends participated in the boy's test. The five-day test gave these half-year-old children a taste of the hardships of learning for the first time.
Why do they study? But not just for the sake of the family's face, they were there to give themselves an explanation, so this time they took the exam very seriously.
Their results came out before the Spring Festival. After all, being able to try is the highlight, and these little shrimps are nothing in front of this.
But Wu Xuan was still excitedly waiting for his results.
Not surprisingly, he and his friends were all on the list, but Wu Xuan was still at the top of the list, which made him very proud. After seeing the results, he didn't go out to play with his friends. Instead, he ran home to announce the good news.
It stands to reason that it is impossible for a Wu mansion so big that no one knows about Wu Xuan's achievements, but Wu Xuan insisted on hiding this matter. The old lady has been waiting anxiously. group.
"Xuan'er, congratulations, but don't be proud, the government exam in April is not far away, so you can't relax. But Dad promised you, when you finish the exam, please go to Wanshulou, and go with your little one. Let's make an appointment, let's go together, how about bringing your grandmother this time?" Wu Qun was a little happy, this child is not bad, it's not that rotten wood can't be carved.
"Dad, I know, I'm going to tell my grandmother, I'm afraid she'll be in a hurry." Wu Xuan ran to announce the good news to his grandmother. Wu Qun followed closely behind and went together. At this time, the family will congratulate Wu Xuan neatly and encourage Wu Xuan to make persistent efforts.
"Okay, okay, I know that my brother Xuan is a good one. It's all the nonsense of those rotten hearts. If you look at this, you will pass the test. Now you are a scholar. Grandma is really happy. "The old lady smiled and touched Wu Xuan's head. The emotion in my heart, what a wonderful child, this is her grandson.
"Mother, I'm happy today, why don't my son welcome you and set a table? What do you think?" Wu Qun also responded to the situation. At this time, it was time to make the old lady and son happy.
"Okay, daddy, welcome, you are not allowed to go back on your words." Wu Xuan was happy when he heard that, this is the most expensive restaurant in the capital, and it is rare to have a place.
"Okay, that's it, my son, you go first, lest you go too late and let the old lady and me stand downstairs where I greet you with a dull face." The old lady is happy, the eldest grandson is a scholar, or a scholar Lin Sheng in Li has a long face, but she also knows that this is the first step, and she can't be too public.
The old lady, who hadn't eaten outside for many years, sat in a sedan chair with her grandson, and went to greet him. Wu Qun was waiting early. Fortunately, he said hello in advance, otherwise there would be no elegant room.
As a result, the group had just served, and Xiao Er came to ask them to move the car.
When the old lady saw the grievances on the young man's face, she put down her chopsticks and said to Wu Qun, "Son, take it home and eat it."
"Mother, you finally came here, how can you just go back like this, peace of mind. I'll see. Xuan'er take care of your grandmother, no matter what happens, you are not allowed to come out." Wu Qun was afraid that Wu Xuan was young and angry, In a breathless quarrel with people.
"This gentleman, it's not that the little ones are trying to embarrass you. It's really that the little ones can't do anything about it. Please forgive me." In fact, the grievances that Xiao Er said didn't matter at all.
Wu Qun frowned at this place even though many people watched people order food. But he Wu Qun had an identity no matter what, but he was actually the one who was invited out. He just wanted to see who this grandfather was?
"Hehe, forgive me? Do you know what it means to invite your boss on a first-come-first-served basis, I'm afraid you won't be able to talk like an errand." Wu Qun was in the flower hall of the private room, looking at the second child.
"Master, you have to know that the people who are here to welcome you are either Xungui or the children of Xungui's family. You are just a rich family. Why should you offend Xungui?" Saying that you are only rich and have no identity to invite you out has given you a lot of face.
Wu Qun is delighted. There is such a place at the foot of the emperor. Is he being too sincere, or is this building too good for publicity?
"Come on, is there any time for the happy meeting? Our son-in-law has been impatiently waiting." The dog-legs outside the door were already urging.
Xiao Er looked at Wu Qun with a pig face and said, "Master, please invite us. Our regular customers are here."
