Chapter 2147

There are nine days for the local examination, which is a double test of knowledge and physical strength.

After the examination, tie Honglin went back to the Inn and fell into bed. The boy beside him took off his shoes and covered his clothes.

When I woke up, it was a day and a night later. Next, there is the anxious waiting.

Three days later, the results of the local examination came out.

From the beginning to the end, and then from the end to the head. After reading it twice, tie Honglin didn't see his name either.

Tie Honglin's eyes murmured to himself: "I'm down. I'm down." He has been preparing for this day for so many years, but he didn't expect to be famous.

"Young man, where are we going now?" he asked cautiously The reservation is due today.

Thinking of his boasting that he would surely succeed in the exam, he felt ashamed to face his grandfather and parents who had high hopes for him. After so many things, tie Honglin knows very well that he can't solve the problem by escaping. On the contrary, he would be more worried if he ran away from his relatives.

Tie Honglin said dejectedly: "go home!"

You don't have to ask. Looking at tie Honglin, you can see that he has failed. Iron Tiger said: "Honglin, I asked your uncle to study, but your uncle didn't want to. You see, he's not the same now. He's promising. " Even without the niece of the empress, the son is also a general of the third grade.

Hearing this, Honglin regretted it and said, "I knew that I should have practiced martial arts in those years." After practicing martial arts, you can join the army and win a bright future in the army.

Chunni said: "it doesn't matter if we don't pass the exam this time. We'll take it again in three years. Honglin, I'm sure you'll be able to pass the exam. "

But Tiehu didn't agree with Honglin. However, looking at the listless appearance of his little grandson, he could not bear to say anything. I'll have a good talk with Honglin in private.

"Don't say so much. Let Honglin take a bath, have a meal and have a good rest." Of course, Honglin is happy to win the exam, but it's nothing if he doesn't. Hongbo is not even a scholar. Now this master book is not so well treated.

In fact, Hongbo knew that tie Honglin had been defeated in the morning, although it was a pity. However, his idea is the same as Chunni's. If he fails in the exam this time, he will continue to study. Three years later, they can afford it.

After two days' rest, tie Hu called tie Honglin into his room and asked, "what are your plans for the future?"

Tie Honglin hesitated and said, "grandfather, I want to continue to take the exam." Read so many years book, how can give up easily.

Tiehu was silent and said, "Honglin, how old are you this year

Tie Hung Lin hung his head and said nothing.

"Honglin, you are twenty-four years old and haven't married yet. Your parents and I can marry you a daughter-in-law, but we can't help you with your daughter-in-law and children, can we? " With that, Tiehu looked at him and said, "besides, we are old, and now we are still supported by your elder brother. If you want to study, it means that the whole family has to be raised by your elder brother. Even if your elder brother wants to, I won't agree! "

Tie Honglin looked up at tie Hu: "grandfather..." he didn't think so much, so he wanted to fight again.

"Honglin, the number one scholar in 360 lines, studying is not the only way out." Anyway, he didn't support Honglin to continue studying.

Honglin was bitter: "grandfather, what can I do without studying? Now I'm going home to farm, and I won't do it! "

Hearing this, the Iron Tiger's face softened a lot, and he didn't insist on going his own way, saying that it was easy to continue studying: "I wrote to your uncle and asked him to find you a clerical job in the army. As long as you are not afraid of hardship and fatigue, you will not be worse than your elder brother in the future with your uncle Ninghai is the head of Tongcheng. He can't go up with him.

Tie Honglin did not refuse, but said, "grandfather, please allow me to think about it."

"Take your time!" Tie Hu is very clear about tie Honglin's temperament. He is not afraid of hardship. As long as you don't continue to study, you will definitely be willing to go to Tongcheng.

Tie Honglin locked himself in the room. Chunni was so worried that she almost had the door knocked open. However, they were all stopped by Iron Tiger.

Iron Tiger said: "if you can't stand such a setback, you will have no future in your life."

The next morning, tie Honglin came out of the house. The eyes were all red.

Chunni hugged him and cried, "son, you can read it if you miss it. Your father and I will serve you by smashing the pot and selling iron. "

Hongbo's mouth twitched.

Tie Honglin originally decided to give up studying, but he was very upset. But after listening to Chunni's words, she felt that it was right to give up studying. It's unfilial of him to let his aged parents work hard at this age.

"Mother, I've figured it out. When I'm so old, I have to rely on my parents and elder brother to support me. What's the difference between that and rubbish? " He decided to go to Tongcheng. As long as you work hard, you will be able to make a name for yourself.

It is also because of Ninghai mountain, otherwise tie Honglin would not have such self-confidence.

Iron Tiger heard this, very satisfied: "you can figure it out.". You're old enough to be married. "

This time, tie Honglin did not refuse.

Chunni was so happy that she began to discuss the matter with her eldest daughter-in-law.

Tie Honglin has only one requirement for his wife, who must be literate. But in this small town, few girls can read.

Ninghai's reply arrived, tie Honglin's marriage has not been finalized.

After reading the letter, tie Honglin said, "grandfather, uncle said that he could get me a job as a magistrate in the army." The magistrate is the official of zhengbapin, and he is also the official of the imperial court.

"That's good."

Marriage has not been decided, Iron Tiger and Chunni husband and wife can not let him go to Tongcheng.

That night, Chunni and tie Honglin said, "the girls of the Yu family are beautiful and gentle. You'll miss it. You won't find such a good girl in the future. " The girl is illiterate, not up to the standard of Honglin..

The father of Miss Yu was the second daughter of Li Fang Dian Shi. Tie Honglin is 24 years old this year, and Yu's girl is only 16 years old this year. At such an old age, if I didn't have a brother who was the chief recorder, I would not have married a girl who was a historian.

Tie Honglin didn't say a word.

Iron Tiger calm face said: "marriage events, parents' orders, matchmaker's words.". Chunni, since you think this girl is good, you can fix the day. "

Chunni shook her head. If Honglin doesn't like it, it's not good for other girls to be forced to marry back. It's not a marriage, it's a feud. And she can't do such a trick.

Tiehu waited for Honglin and said, "you don't think other girls can read. Just teach her to read after you get married. If you don't get married now, do you still want to go to Tongcheng to marry your daughter-in-law? " He doesn't mind tie Honglin going to Tongcheng to get a wife. The problem is that there are so few women there that he doesn't know how many singles there are. Tie Honglin is not particularly excellent. Nine times out of ten, he can't marry a daughter-in-law.

Speaking of this, tie Honglin could only let go: "mother, let me see you!" If it's a pimple, he can't teach even if he wants to.

After meeting, tie Honglin agreed to the marriage.

Chunni was so happy that she immediately asked the matchmaker to come to her home. Then, they began to buy betrothal gifts.

Iron tiger called Chunni over and gave her two ingots of gold: "take this money to Honglin to buy betrothal gifts and marriage."

"Dad, I have money."

Last time, Ninghai gave Tiehu another thousand taels of silver. Children and grandchildren are filial, but they can buy whatever they want with money.

Iron Tiger said: "when you don't know, you don't have money at all. Last time I sold two pieces of jewelry to supplement Honglang. " There is still some pocket money, but there is certainly no money for Honglang's wedding.

Chunni was surprised: "Dad, how do you know this?" She thought she was doing it secretly, only her husband knew. But I didn't expect that the iron tiger who didn't care about everything knew.

"Not only I know, but Dabao's mother also knows. It's just Dabao. She's kind-hearted. If she hadn't, it would have started. Nizi, you need a bowl of water for your three sons. If you don't get blamed by your children and grandchildren, you won't be able to enjoy your old age. " When kuizi bought gifts, they were all for one person, never giving one to the other.

Chunni said after half a ring, "when Honglin gets married, I'll give them all the jewelry I have." Those jewelry are too expensive to wear before, but it's not age to wear now.

Tiehu said in a voice: "if you give some jewels to your daughter-in-law, you can collect the money by yourself. If you have money on hand, it's convenient to buy anything you want. " I have no money. I have to think for a long time to buy a present for my great grandson. But if you have money, you can buy it.

See Chunni run Honglin marriage do not go public accounts, Fu persuasion failed to hold a silver box to Chunni. There was a hundred taels of silver in it.

Chunni held Fu's hand and said, "it's my responsibility and your father's responsibility to marry your third brother. How can I ask for your money. Don't worry, I still have money. If it's not enough, I'll borrow it from you then. "

After listening to this, Fu said with a smile: "what can I borrow or not? My mother is too outspoken. Mother, if you don't have enough money, tell me

At the beginning of this year, Fu and Shao opened a restaurant together. Because of the good cooking skills, the restaurant business is very good. Originally also want to open an embroidery room, because she was pregnant, put on hold.

In fact, she was a little unhappy when she knew that Chunni had sold jewelry to supplement Honglang. But then I think that her husband is now the master of the book, and she has made money by opening a shop. In the future, she will not be able to buy some valuable jewelry. So, let it go.

Chunni is very happy. This daughter-in-law is really married right.

Because tie Honglin was going to Tongcheng, the wedding was scheduled to take place in a month. It's a little urgent, but there should be a lot of courtesy.

When the bride marries, the iron family is really busy. After tie Honglin accompanied the bride back, he began to prepare to go to Tongcheng.

Two days before leaving, Chunni called Duan Honglang's family to have a reunion dinner.

After dinner, Chunni came into the room and came out with a jewelry box. The jewelry box is made of Huanghua pear wood, with simple patterns carved on it. This box is not ordinary at first sight.

When they opened the box, they were dazzled by the colorful jewelry in the box.
