395 Maybe I Can Marry a Princess (1 More)
Since Song Si went to the capital for the exam, people in the entire Songjia Village have been looking forward to it. Especially the village chief, who ran to the Song family several times a day, asking if there was any news about Song Si's examination being sent back.
Hearing Grandma Song's voice, everyone working in the field ran towards the Song family's field.
Mr. Song was even more overjoyed. Based on Grandma Song's performance, it is inferred that Song Si must be on the list.
He threw away the hoe and went up to him, "Is the yamen sent to report the good news?"
"What is the good news? Si'er fell in love with a girl in the capital and asked someone to send a letter back, asking us to go to the capital to get him engaged."
Grandma Song's voice was very loud and she couldn't help but feel happy. The people who ran towards her paused, and the village chief was the only one who ran to her and asked at the top of her voice, "What is the result of the test?"
"It's said he won the Huiyuan."
The village chief staggered and almost fell down. He hurriedly held a villager beside him, "You, say it again!"
"It's said he won the Huiyuan."
The village chief heard it clearly, his legs became weak, and he fell to the ground, "Huiyuan, hahahaha, Huiyuan, okay, okay."
"You heard it right?"
Mr. Song couldn't believe it. Although his grandson had good knowledge, they had never thought about Zhonghuiyuan.
"You old man, I have no deaf ears, how could I hear it wrong? It was the letter from the Gu family's servant who came back in person..."
Speaking of this, thinking of his purpose of running to the field, he hurriedly greeted Mr. Song and Song Lin, "You two are going back with me quickly. We have to discuss going to the capital."
"Song Si's engagement can be slowed down..."
The village chief got up from the ground and strode over, "After the exam is over, it is the palace exam. If Song Si performed well in the palace exam, maybe..."
He did not say "will marry a princess". He was surrounded by villagers, and if it spread, it would cause great trouble.
"Anyway, listen to me and let Song Si ease the engagement matter first."
The village chief also wanted to marry a princess, so he would become one step ahead of time. From then on, he could enjoy all his wealth and glory, and he could also bring the whole family to the capital, and he would eat with the most delicious food. He would no longer have to come to the field to dig for food every day.
"That won't work..."
In Grandma Song's heart, nothing is more important than a girl she has a favorite. "Since Si'er has asked someone to send a letter back, it proves that he values that girl very much, so we have to go quickly."
"Oh, you..."
The village chief was so anxious that he couldn't speak out in front of these people, so he simply took Mr. Song to the side and told him his thoughts.
When Mr. Song heard that Song Si might be able to marry the princess, he was very scared, "Village Chief, don't scare me."
"What did I scare you? I just said that there is such a possibility. I just wait a few more days. You ask the servant of the Gu family to reply first, and then say that you are busy in the field and wait for a few days before going."
"No, no..."
Mr. Song was shaking his head like a rattle. It was good to marry the princess, but if Si'er was unhappy, they would be like harming the child.
"You guys are simply..."
The village chief regrets that the iron cannot be achieved.
The three of them returned home, and Xu read Song Si's letter to them without saying a word.
Grandma Song was so happy that she couldn't stop talking, "Boss, drive the carriage to the county and call the second one and the others back, telling them that no matter how much they are left, they will send them to their houses, come back and prepare, and set off early tomorrow morning."
Song Lin happily went to the carriage and rushed to the market.
It happened to be noon, and there were many people eating spicy hot pot at the stall. Song Sanxiao was busy cleaning the table. When she looked up, she saw Song Lin coming over in the carriage. She thought something had happened at home, so she hurriedly threw away the rag and ran up, "Brother, what happened?"
"A great joy, Si'er passed the Huiyuan exam and had a girl she liked. He asked the Gu servant to send a letter to let our family go to the capital. Call your second brother and sister-in-law home. My mother said, no matter how much she left, she would give it to someone."
Song Si has a girl he likes...
As soon as this sentence came to my ears, Song Sanxiao unconsciously opened the corner of her mouth, turned around and ran back to the stall, said Song Lin, put all the remaining spicy skewers into the pot, and greeted the people in front of the stall, "Everyone, you have caught up with a good time today, open your belly and eat, you don't have any money."
There was a congratulations in front of the stall.
Song Shu and Liu Cuilan were stunned, and Song Sanxiao urged them, "Second brother and second sister-in-law, you go back in the carriage first, I will stay and pack up my things."
Both of them didn't take off their aprons and trotted over to get on the carriage, still a little unbelievable.
After they left, Song Sanxiao took a basin and took part of the cooked spicy hot pot and put it in it. "I just remembered that a customer gave a deposit. I'm sorry, everyone."
Everyone was useless, and no one said anything. They all started to take action quickly. They snatched it in a short while. Song Sanxiao removed the fire and asked the people next to him to help watch the things. He put a ox cart on, brought the basin to the top, and rushed to the door of the Weiyuan Escort Agency.
Since he was slapped during the Chinese New Year, he has never seen Qi Ying once, and he is thinking and afraid.
After stopping the ox cart, he took the basin and walked to the door, saying to the person guarding the escort agency, "I have a happy family today, and I will give all the spicy hot pot to everyone."
The two people guarding the door had already smelled the scent of Malatang, and they were so greedy that they heard it was given. One of them hurriedly took it over and took it in quickly. Another asked with a smile, "Mr. Song San, what kind of happy event is there in your family? You won't even sell Malatang."
"My eldest nephew Song Sikao won Huiyuan, and there was a girl he liked. He sent a letter to ask his family to come over to help her get engaged."
"This is a great joy, congratulations, congratulations."
Song Sanxiao glanced at the escort agency and knew that the news should be able to reach Qi Ying's ears soon, and she should be able to give up by then.
...
When Song Shu and Liu Cuilan returned home, Xu gave Song Si's belief to both of them again, and then they believed it was true.
Grandma Song said, "You couple must go, your sister-in-law is literate and you will follow you, only you three. Remember, don't show any timidity after meeting your in-laws. Everything is done according to the rules of others. Our family has no other requirements, as long as the girl is good."
Liu Cuilan has been married for so many years and doesn't worry about anything except working at home. When she heard that she was asked to see her in-laws, she was frightened, "Mom, I can't do it, you have to follow us."
"What are you afraid of? If you have your sister-in-law, just listen to her then."
Liu Cuilan still felt that it was not possible, "Mom, you should go with me. With you here, we have the backbone."
"Old woman, just follow me..."
Mr. Song made a decision. Grandma Song was always in charge of the family affairs. She followed Song Shu and the others really had a backbone. Another thing is that Grandma Song rarely even went to the county town for so many years, so she took this opportunity to go to the capital to take a look.
