Quick Transmigration: After becoming beautiful, I am numb

Chapter 166 The hero's best mother-in-law (53)

Doumian, Sheng Mi Chou!
The Zheng family gave too much and praised Ji Keji too much.

Ji Keji himself was too young, and after experiencing so many surprises all of a sudden, his heart fluttered.

On the first day of traveling with Ji Keji, Zhao Qingyun discovered that he was not in the right state.

This man is very dangerous.

Already stepped on the edge of the cliff.

If he could wake up in time, there might be salvation.

But if you continue to get carried away, you will miss out!
Zhao Qingyun does not want to contact such people yet.

It's not that her character is bad, but that she is not sober and smart enough!
Zhao Qingyun is no longer the simple boy he was back then, and his world is not black and white, right and wrong.

Good or bad character is not important.

The key is to be smart!
"Let's go!"

Zhao Qingyun jumped on his carriage and said to the driver, "Go to Pingkangfang!"

There are a total of [-] squares in the capital, and Pingkang Square is a well-known "red light district", but Guozijian is also in this square.

Therefore, many scholars, or exam candidates, will come to Pingkangfang.

Zhao Qingyun is a person who takes one step and sees three steps.

Now that I have decided to come to the capital to participate in Chunwei, I will make preparations in advance.

More than a month ago, he asked his cousin Zhao Qingyang to come to the capital first.

Investigate the two cities of East and West to find suitable houses.

There is a family member of his mentor Mr. Tang in Beijing, and Zhao Qingyang is not unfamiliar with them either.

Zhao Qingyang is very capable, and he has experienced it in the past few years in Heyin County.

After arriving in the capital, with the help of the Tang family, a suitable courtyard and shop were purchased in less than half a month.

The house is located in Pingkangfang, a courtyard with three entrances.

"Yes!"

The coachman promised, raised his whip, and flicked a loud whip in the air, and the carriage started to drive quickly.

Pingkang Square.

"Ma'am, what are you looking at outside?"

The speaker was a young man in his 20s. He was wearing a robe, with a fair face and a bookish air.

The accent has a little hometown taste, and one can tell at a glance that he is a scholar who has come to Beijing to catch the exam.

His aunt was an old woman in her fifties with gray hair and fine wrinkles around her eyes and mouth.

The corners of the old woman's lips couldn't help but droop downwards, and she looked a bit stern and not easy to get close to.

"The neighbor next door should be here! Someone came to clean up early in the morning."

The old woman was sitting outside the small courtyard that her family rented, looking like she was working while watching the movement next door.

"Is it the courtyard on the east side? I heard that a man from out of town also bought it."

This scholar is not the kind of "noble" person, and he also showed enthusiasm for gossip when he heard what his mother said.

"Yes! I asked clearly a long time ago. I heard that this family also has a son who was raised by a widowed mother."

When the old woman mentioned "widowed mother", her serious expression softened a little.

"A woman who never remarried, who is both a father and a mother, raised her son and helped him pass the Juren examination, must be a very good one!"

The old woman seemed to be praising the new neighbor next door, but there was a hint of complacency in her eyes.

Anyone who knows her a little bit knows that she is also boasting.

The old woman does have something to be proud of, because she is a widowed mother.

Widowed at a young age, he supported the entire sect by himself.

Not only did he bring up all four children, but he also provided for his son to study.

His son is also promising, and he passed the Juren examination at the age of 25.

Juren, in their hometown, a proper first job.

Now that her son has come to Beijing for the Spring Festival, the old woman has sold all her belongings and brought her daughter-in-law, grandson, etc. to accompany him.

She believed that her son would pass the Jinshi examination and stay in the capital as an official!
It's just that "living in the capital is not easy", the old woman sold her belongings, the son received "filial piety", and there was also a subsidy from the daughter-in-law's family.

Adding up several items, I couldn't afford to buy a house, so I had to rent it.

However, it is not easy to rent a neat small courtyard in Pingkangfang.

The old woman is very proud, this family can't do without her!

Subsequently, the house on the east side changed neighbors.

The old woman ran to inquire, only to find out that she was also a widowed mother who brought her son to Beijing for the exam.

Hey, it's "similar".

While the old woman was happy, she also felt a little bit of contrast.

Therefore, when she heard the movement today and saw the busy work of several people coming in and out, the old woman knew that it was probably a new neighbor.

She hurriedly changed into the new clothes her son had made after Zhongju, combed her hair neatly, then took a sewing basket, and pretended to sit outside the gate.

"The son of that family should not be as young as my Erlang."

The old woman also knew how difficult the imperial examination was only after her son took the imperial examination.

Many people are 50 or [-] years old and are still just children.

My son passed the Juren examination when he was in his twenties, and he is definitely the youngest in their county.

Moreover, the new neighbor's house is not rented, but bought.

If you were too young, you probably wouldn't be able to earn such a large sum of money.

Maybe, there is help from the Yue family here.

Just like their family, in order to let their son continue to study, they gritted their teeth and married the daughter of a wealthy businessman in the county.

Now it seems that it is a bit inappropriate.

A gloomy and inexplicable light flashed in the old woman's sharp old eyes.

However, it is still important to watch the excitement today.

She must make the "old sister" next door who is also a widow envy her.

"Yes! Just like my mother!"

The young man respected his widowed mother very much, so it was a great compliment for him to say "like A Niang".

The mother and son were talking and laughing when they heard a crunching sound.

This is the sound of a carriage!
"coming!"

The old woman's energy perked up, and her slightly slumped waist straightened up instantly.

Not long after, two or three carriages drove in slowly.

The mother and son were a little surprised, knowing that this family might have some family background, but they still didn't expect that the family's battle would be so big.

There are several carriages, even if they are hired, it will cost a lot of money.

Appeal!
With a long groan from the coachman, the carriage stopped steadily.

Squeak!

The car door opened, and a handsome boy of seventeen or eighteen jumped out.

"Is this Juren's son? His appearance is outstanding!"

A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of the old woman and the young man.

Everyone has a love for beauty.

The old woman winked at her son.

The young man nodded. After all, they are neighbors, and it is inevitable that they will have contacts in the future.

The neighbor is here, he should go over to say hello and see if there is anything he can do to help.

However, the young man still didn't leave immediately, he was waiting, waiting for his "same generation" Juren.

However, no!

As soon as the beautiful boy got out of the car, two little girls started to jump out.

Then, there was an unbelievably beautiful and weak woman who was helped out of the car.

"You should marry a virtuous wife. She is beautiful, but her body is so weak. Why do you want to marry her?"

"Fortunately, I can still give birth to a son, otherwise, this husband's family will surely die!"

The old woman glanced at Gu Qingcheng, her heart was filled with disapproval.

She is a daughter-in-law who has become a mother-in-law for many years, and her mentality has long been distorted.

Seeing this kind of soft, weak, delicate and timid woman, I instinctively disliked it.

However, the eyebrows of Gu Qingcheng and Zhao Qingyun are very similar, and anyone who sees them will know that they are a pair of mother and son.

From this, the old woman speculated that Gu Qingcheng could still have a son, so it was finally of some use!

"Eh? What about Juren?"

"Yes, and what about his widowed mother?"

Why are there so few people?

In the carriage at the back, most of them were luggage.

Just when the two were puzzled, Zhao Qingyun caught a glimpse of the mother and son from the corner of his eye.

There was a warm smile on his extremely handsome face, but the smile was very stylized and did not extend to his eyes at all.

"My surname is Zhao, and my name is Qingyun. I was an imperial examination candidate in the year of Yiwei. Your neighbor's surname? Is he also a candidate for Beijing?"

Zhao Qingyun was very polite, but his words made the mother and son who watched the excitement grow their mouths.

This young man who has not reached the weak crown, is, unexpectedly, a Juren?
And Yiwei Year was three years ago.

How old was he at that time, and he won the exam? !

The young man reacted faster than the old woman. He woke up suddenly, and bowed his hands in return, "My lord, Zhao Zhi, was born in Enkeju in the year of [-]."

The two families are also destined, and they both have the surname Zhao.

It's just that Zhao Zhi is this year's Juren, one subject later than Zhao Qingyun.

"Brother Zhao, this must be your mother-in-law. How are you, Auntie!"

Zhao Qingyun continued to greet the neighbors with a warm smile.

"An, Ann!"

The mouth of the old lady of the Zhao family, which could make her daughter-in-law cry, was stuttering at the moment.

She suddenly looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was walking towards Pingpingtingting, and asked, "She, she is -"

Zhao Qingyun turned sideways, got out of the way, reached out to support his mother, and then introduced with a smile: "My mother, Mrs. Gu, suffered from exhaustion because of helping me study. Please forgive me if she is rude in the future!"

Mrs. Zhao stared straight at Gu Qingcheng, who was younger than her daughter-in-law, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

This is also a widowed mother?

After working so hard to bring up his son, he also confessed to a master?

But, why is it completely different from what she imagined?
He also "broke his body".

Granny Zhao didn't believe a word.

Her old eyes were the most vicious, and Gu's ten fingers were as white and delicate as green onions in spring.

There are no cocoons, no roughness, and it looks like a pampered nobleman.

My daughter-in-law is still a lady from a wealthy businessman. She has been married to her family for more than ten years, and she also has calluses on her hands.

"...Old, old, may I call you old sister?"

Gu Qingcheng started to show off her acting skills again.

She didn't seem to see the complexity in Mrs. Zhao's eyes, and deliberately said heart-wrenching words innocently.

It stands to reason that the two sons are all juren, and they are considered to be of the same generation.

Gu Qingcheng politely called Mrs. Zhao "sister", there was no problem at all.

But, but these two people really don't seem to be from the same generation, even if they are from two generations, they feel a little wronged by Gu Qingcheng.

So young and so beautiful, it is necessary to call a 60-year-old mean old woman "sister".

Mrs. Zhao herself was a little embarrassed to agree.

"Pfft!"

The neighbor on the other side heard the movement and quietly came out to watch the excitement, and happened to see this scene.

Haha, it’s so interesting. The old widow who always thinks highly of herself is sometimes choked to the point of being speechless!
