My husband is sour every day

Chapter 1216: There is no small matter when it comes to Your Majesty.

Shen Xia was happy to see Yi Yi and Xiao Wan taking the imperial examination.

Because it makes it easier for people to believe.

The superiors all study hard.

Your Majesty, when you do things, you really let your strength speak for itself.

Even if you are the eldest princess, you can use your academic qualifications to enter the officialdom.

Prosperity lasted for sixty-nine years.

Xiao Wan and Yi Yi have both become juren.

Because the imperial examination was opened that year, they were the first group of female candidates to take the examination.

Of course, there are already hundreds of female juren in the country, although not many.

But there has been great progress.

Then those who have passed the examination can continue to take the imperial examination if they have decent abilities.

If they have less ability, they will start to rely on their teachers.

Each teacher has an assessment time.

Now all the female teachers in the country are looking for people.

In some places, anyone who passes the examination to become a scholar can take the examination to become a teacher.

Facing a tight talent gap.

I can only lower my requirements.

But the teacher in Phoenix City has very high requirements.

Generally, they cannot pass the exam.

At this time, the Princess's Mansion had been built.

Although the eldest princess did not get married.

But Yi Yi had already moved out of the palace.

Chunhua Qiushi also followed her.

After all, I watched her grow up.

day.

Gu Zizhan asked Shen Xia about Yi Yi's marriage.

Shen Xia actually didn't care about this matter.

She felt that her parents could control everything except marriage, and they really couldn't do much about it.

Matters of the heart cannot be understood by outsiders.

Only your feet know whether the shoes fit you or not.

She was actually curious too, because everyone has a time when their green beans begin to bloom.

But I have never seen anyone show their affection for anyone.

He is an important official in the court.

There are many people of the same age as Yi Yi.

There are many banquets in the palace throughout the year.

But I didn't see Yi Yi getting friendly with anyone.

The woman only has a better relationship with Xiao Wan.

Yi Yi turned twenty this April.

We can talk about marriage now.

Shen Xia brought Xiao Wanxuan into the palace.

Let’s ask Xiao Wan about the situation first.

Xiao Wan is in the mansion.

The whole house was celebrating for her.

Because he passed the imperial examination.

Among this group of children, she was the only one who passed the imperial examination; even her other brothers failed.

Lord Xiao looked at his promising daughter with a warm expression.

these people.

Because the concubine's daughter is the eldest princess's only good friend.

And of course, I also travel with His Majesty.

Learned a lot.

At first he was curious as to why all the other noble ladies had gone home, but she was the only one still in the palace.

It was not until His Majesty failed to attend the morning court session that the officials realized that His Majesty had gone on a secret visit.

Fortunately, only his daughter went with him.

Because of this honor.

Over the years, his official position has been promoted twice.

He also mentioned in the middle that he would adopt her to his original wife.

In this way, she is a legitimate daughter.

We can talk about future marriage again.

But Xiao Wan was unwilling.

Of course, Mrs. Xiao herself was unwilling to do so, but because Lord Xiao had this idea, she didn't want to object.

It just so happens that Xiao Wan herself doesn’t want to, which is even better.

It just so happens that today is a day off and the whole family is at home.

Xiao Wan listened to her father's praises without showing much expression.

But looking at Mrs. Xiao's dissatisfied expression, Xiao Wan was still happy in her heart.

Her elder sister is already married, but there are still many people in the family.

At this time, Madam Xiao said, "Wan'er is twenty-two now! It's time for her to get married. Coincidentally, my family has a nephew who is still unmarried, and he would be a good match for Wan'er."

When Xiao Wan's mother heard this, a look of worry flashed across her face.

But Xiao Wan's expression was calm: "Thank you, mother, for worrying about your daughter's marriage. It's just that I am only thinking about the honor of the family and have never thought of putting marriage first."

Madam Xiao looked at Lord Xiao and said, "Look, Master! You said I only care about my own daughter and don't care about Xiao Wan. But she doesn't need my care as her legal mother! Maybe after being with the prince and princess for a few years, her standards have become higher!"

After hearing this, Lord Xiao's face did not look very good.

Xiao Wan: "Then mother, tell me which nephew of yours is this!"

Madam Xiao looked at her husband: "It's Yu'er's second cousin."

Xiao Wan chuckled and said, "Mother is looking for her daughter to meet her elder sister's second cousin. What do you think, father?"

When Mr. Xiao heard this, he realized that it was the second son of his eldest brother-in-law.

His face suddenly turned bad.

The second son of his eldest uncle is almost thirty years old and a widower.

There are three more children.

It's like remarrying.

Although his daughter Xiao Wan was born out of wedlock, the one who spoke to him in recent years was not the eldest daughter of the legitimate wife.

Because looking at Xiao Wan's wrist, she is suitable to be the housekeeper's wife.

I never thought that my wife was so short-sighted.

The marriages of children are all arranged for marriage, and I have never heard of a woman marrying down to such a low level.

Mrs. Xiao saw that her master looked unhappy.

He quickly said, "Master, I just thought that Wan'er would marry into my mother's family, and we would be family members, so she would definitely not bully her. Besides, Wan'er is so strong that an ordinary man would probably not be able to handle it."

After hearing this, Lord Xiao agreed. How many men could accept a woman who was stronger than themselves?

Xiao Wan smiled: "Don't worry about this, father. If I find someone I like, I will definitely tell you. Marriage is all about forming a strong alliance, not poverty alleviation."

Madam Xiao quickly retorted, "Marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. How can you discuss it yourself? That's no different from a private negotiation."

Xiao Wan said calmly, "So, my eldest sister's marriage was arranged by my mother herself."

Xiao Wan raised the corner of her mouth and looked at Mrs. Xiao sarcastically.

Mrs. Xiao choked.

As for her elder sister's marriage, she chose the one she liked herself, and then discussed it with the parents of both parties.

So when Mrs. Xiao heard this, she couldn't refute it at all. The point was.

My mother was not at all satisfied with my eldest sister's marriage.

Although the other party's family background is higher than theirs.

But I heard that the other party is not married yet.

There are many concubines in the family.

When the atmosphere at home is quiet.

Then the housekeeper came to announce: "Grandpa Sun, the eunuch, is here."

Lord Xiao listened: "Eunuch Sun?"

"Yes, Eunuch Sun beside His Majesty?"

Master Xiao frowned: "Then why don't you invite them in?"

Housekeeper: "Eunuch Sun invited the Second Miss to the palace, saying that His Majesty has requested her, so there will be no delay."

Lord Xiao looked at Xiao Wan and asked, "What does His Majesty want to see you about?"

Xiao Wan calmly shook her head: "I don't know, I think it's because the princess and I both passed the imperial examination, so she wanted to summon me to the palace to ask!"

She really didn't know why His Majesty wanted to see her.

After all, His Majesty has never summoned her in these years.

Usually, only the eldest princess visits her.

When the two of them are together, they always study.

Or play together.

Lord Xiao sent Xiao Wan to the door.

He bent forward and politely said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting, Eunuch Sun? Why didn't you come in for a couple of cups of tea?"

Eunuch Sun smiled and said, "Your Majesty is waiting to see Miss Xiao. We dare not delay His Majesty's time."

"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Sun. For such a small matter, you could just ask a servant to come over. Why did you ask the eunuch to come here in person?"

Eunuch Sun smiled and said, "Nothing is trivial when it comes to your majesty."

Mr. Xiao: “…”

Did he offend Eunuch Sun in some way?

Did he say the wrong thing again?

Xiao Wan: "Excuse me, Eunuch Sun, let's go!"

Eunuch Sun smiled and said, "That's not true. Your Majesty missed Miss Xiao, so we came to invite her in person."

Lord Xiao felt that no matter how Eunuch Sun treated his daughter, he was always more polite than him!
