The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 442

Shi Chuying smiled and said, "That's a coincidence, our general has just passed his birthday, and he's already 27 years old."

Meng Xin also smiled implicitly, and said: "In this way, even if I flatter my horse, I won't be able to catch up with the general."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone became happy.Isn't it?Everything else can catch up, but the birthday can't catch up no matter what. If you are young, you are young, and you can't go back to the mother's womb to change the day of birth.

Shi Chuying heard his calm and humorous voice, which was interesting, so she couldn't help but asked, "Brother Meng is still studying?"

Meng Xin clasped his fists, "I only passed the Juren exam. Now I plan to continue to study hard, and I plan to try it after I get a little experience."

Shi Chuying knew that this was a modest statement, so she also nodded and said with a smile: "Brother Meng is not in a hurry, and he will definitely get what he wants."

Shi Chuying couldn't sit still for a long time, and after completing the task of seeing people, she left early.

The invisible pressure of everyone watching the distinguished guests leave also disappeared, and eating, drinking, talking and laughing became much more natural.Originally, there were quite a few local female relatives with status who came to the Meng Mansion for the banquet, and some of them relied on their status to overwhelm the Meng family, and they usually spoke bitterly and jealously.

I never thought that the Meng Mansion invited such a big Buddha today, which made them very uncomfortable.At this time, when people leave, they have to inquire about each other. I wanted to ask before, but I didn't have a chance. I can't mutter in front of others.

No matter how these people discussed, after the banquet, Chu Xu also returned to Luoxia Garden, and exchanged views with Shi Chuying.

As for Meng Xin, both of them felt that this man had a fairly clean face, and he should not have committed any evil deeds such as beating his wife or abusing children.Not only him, Shi Chuying saw that it was difficult to find such a person in Manmeng Mansion, this was definitely due to the ethos of the mansion.

Secondly, at least he has a reputation for raising people, and he is still motivated.It's hard to test the fame of Da Chu, and there are quite a few people who won the exam at the age of 40, and it's nothing at the age of 26 or seven.As for his knowledge, Shi Chuying had no way of knowing.However, listening to him speak is not lacking in humor, and he is not the kind of person who becomes rigid after reading.

It was Chu Xu who said, "This man is considered outstanding among the men of the Meng family."

Shi Chuying also felt that it wouldn't be too bad if the old general and that old fox looked up to her.However, if you want to say it is excellent, Shi Chuying asked why.

Chu Xu said: "Meng Xin is not the most knowledgeable, nor is he the smartest. He looks gentle, but his heart is firm and he is not easily influenced by external things. He has a steelyard in his heart, but he knows how to be flexible. Steelyards are used everywhere. Although such a person cannot be named as a minister or minister and achieve great things, it is enough to be in charge of a place of water and soil, and to establish a family."

According to Shi Chuying's understanding, what Chu Xu meant was that this person would most likely be a magistrate, a prefect, or a magistrate in the future, who could manage the water and soil by himself. As for those secondary officials, he was not suitable for him.

Zuoer officials are generally subordinate officials, and they always have to consider the will of the chief official. Even if they are of higher rank, they are not suitable for someone like Meng Xin who has his own opinions.

Furthermore, Mrs. Zhou, the third wife, is a cotton character, obviously unable to be the master of her son.After all, Meng Xin was the eldest son of Sanfang, and in her mother's heart he was the backbone.Shi Chuying sat at the same table with her for a long time, but Zhou didn't even say a word.Shi Chuying could see that it wasn't that she didn't want to say it, but that she really didn't know what to say.

Shi Chuying was a little worried for Chu Man, there were pros and cons to marrying such a person.The bad thing is that such a person with ideas is probably not easy to grasp; the good thing is that women don't worry about it at home and outside the house, men should make arrangements, and women just act according to the man's words.Maybe I'm afraid my husband and wife will follow suit.

Hearing Yingying's worry, Chu Xu couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said, "Isn't Yingying just a husband and a wife?" Of course Shi Chuying couldn't admit that she was a Hedong lion, a tigress or something, so Shi Chuying had no choice but to leave immediately. Asleep', so as not to answer wrongly and be credited with a small black account.

Two days passed quickly, and Shi Chuying and the others finally packed up their carriages and set off on their way home.

Shi Chuying returned home like an arrow, and kept urging the chariots and horses to hurry up.Because she heard from Chu Xu yesterday that she had received news from Shifeng and would meet them in the next county.

That means their investigation should have results!
