Chapter 245 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (29)
Shuangshuang hurried to explain, but he must not let his mother misunderstand that he really wanted to get married.
He is still young, so even if you want to marry him, you have to wait until he is older.
"No, mother, you misunderstood! I have never thought about getting married. I just want to be filial to you all my life.
Really! Isn’t it said that when you marry a wife, you forget your mother?
Then I will never marry in my lifetime, and I will never forget you."
Zheng Sangning thought Shuangshuang was shy, so he deliberately put on a stern face.
"Nonsense! How could a mother be so selfish as to control her son from getting married for his entire life?"
"But I..."
"OK OK!
You are not young anymore, it’s time for you to start a family and build a career!"
Shuangshuang: ...
Haha, this is the first time I’ve heard that someone is already quite old at the age of sixteen.
He wanted to fight for it again, but Zheng Sangning thought he had seen through his son's thoughts.
In order not to make him so shy, I decided to skip him and make the decision myself.
"Alright, alright, the others all have mothers! Just wait to be the groom!"
Then he rushed back to his room without even looking at Shuangshuang.
I discussed with a few friends around me and decided to prepare some betrothal gifts.
Shuangshuang was left alone in the wind, even Xiaojuzi laughed at him and forgot to lock him up in the dark room.
Zheng Sangning acted decisively and, despite Suansuan's opposition, sent someone to propose marriage to the Liu family a few days later.
Master Liu and his wife Liu had always valued Shuangshuang, and they were even more satisfied with him after Master Liu tested his knowledge.
Therefore, without even pretending, he agreed directly, and the two families officially became relatives.
When Yang Ruqing heard the news that Shuangshuang was engaged, he hurriedly sent dozens of mahogany boxes in the name of his cousin, saying that they were a betrothal gift to him.
Zheng Sangning had no choice but to accept it, after all, he was indeed his cousin.
Besides, he is a parent, but the official is playing tricks on him.
He acted as if he was going to tell everyone that Shuangshuang was his biological son if Zheng Sangning dared not accept it.
Zheng Sangning was so angry that his teeth were itching, but he really didn't dare to gamble.
At this point, Shuangshuang was very Buddhist.
Just marry her. It’s just starting a family, no big deal.
Therefore, when the two exchanged tokens of love, they both generously gave Liu Jingjia a hollow jade pendant engraved with honeysuckle.
Even Zheng Sangning's are just old stock.
There was no need for Shuangshuang to do anything after that, until Zheng Sangning came back and told him.
"The wedding is scheduled for the year after next, after Liu Jingjia reaches the age of 15."
It was just right that during this period of time, both of them could study hard and prepare for the upcoming spring examination.
After the new year, Shuangshuang prepared to go to the capital to take part in the Spring Examination.
This time he decided to take all four servants with him, and Yang Ruqing also sent him a team of guards to ensure his safety on the road.
There is also a three-story house in the capital.
By now, Zheng Sangning no longer refused his advances towards Shuangshuang.
Now she has let it go. As long as Yang Ruqing doesn't force Shuangshuang to go back and recognize her ancestral roots, it will be fine.
As for his desire to get closer to his own son, let him do it. Even for the sake of his uncle and aunt, he cannot sever ties with him.
Liu Jingjia asked Yu Ming to deliver a fur coat that she had sewn by herself, and a pair of boots.
Then Yang Ruqing and Master Liu gave Shuangshuang many instructions and warnings.
"Remember this: after you finish the exam, don't go and look at the list yourself. Be careful not to be caught by someone else."
"Right, right, right. After all, a woman who can come up with the idea of catching a husband through a list must have some flaws.
Otherwise, why not choose a good man who knows you well?"
Especially Master Liu and Master Liu's wife, they gave him many warnings and instructions, after all, he was their future son-in-law.
Shuangshuang assured them that they would stay in the house and would not go out to wander around, which made them feel a little relieved.
As soon as he arrived in the capital, Shuangshuang did not stay in an inn, but lived in the house given to him by Yang Ruqing.
This is cleaner and more conducive to him doing bad things.
At night, Shuangshuang secretly went out to the mansion of the Earl of Qingyang.
The Qingyang Earl's Mansion even exploits married women and extorts their money. I guess they must be very rich.
Sure enough, when we arrived outside the Qingyang Earl's Mansion, we saw through Xiaojuzi that there were several warehouses of different sizes inside.
There are also two dark rooms, which are also filled with large mahogany boxes.
After taking a look, Shuangshuang still didn't take it and left.
Little Orange was surprised. "You came all this way, why don't you accept it?"
"If you don't accept it, let the emperor take it when the time comes!"
"I was wondering why you were so kind?
That's right, they have so much treasure, they must have done more than one bad thing."
"You go and investigate thoroughly. I will then compile the evidence and present it to the Emperor as a token of my allegiance."
"That's fine, but it's a shame to waste so many good things."
“They are just mundane things. Besides, I have so much space for those things in my main body. Installing more of them will just take up space.
If you want it, just collect some and put it in your system space."
When Little Orange heard Shuangshuang was so generous, he immediately ran to pick out good things.
He didn't mind the mundane things at all. When he had the chance to reincarnate in the future, he would ask Lord Pluto to let him take them back.
After the palace examination, both of them won the third place.
Shuangshuang was very obedient and only sent four servants to the scene when the list was announced. He stayed in the house and did not go out.
Even so, when the Qionglin Banquet was held, it caught the attention of many adults.
After the Qionglin Banquet, the emperor appointed him as an editor of the Hanlin Academy at the seventh rank.
The adults of those families invited matchmakers to come and mediate.
However, most of them thought that they both came from the same rural area, so they were only willing to recommend a concubine's daughter, or even a daughter from a concubine's family.
Just to tie him to his own warship.
Shuangshuang didn't even greet them and just rejected anyone who came.
"Excuse me, sir, but my mother has already arranged a marriage for me, and we are just waiting for the wedding to take place tomorrow."
Seeing that Shuangshuang was so ungrateful, the adults walked away in anger!
He even whispered loudly, "Humph, such a stubborn person, just stay in the Hanlin Academy for the rest of your life!"
"That's right. If you can't even look down on the daughter of the prime minister, you'll just have to sit on the bench for the rest of your life."
If we stay together for a lifetime, it won’t matter to us.
Anyway, he doesn't rely on being a high-ranking official to get rich.
When the day came, he put on his official uniform and excitedly took up his post.
As a result, as soon as Shuangshuang arrived at the Hanlin Academy, his superiors asked him to sit on the bench every day.
Or you could give him some documents that were eight feet thick with dust to sort out.
Shuangshuang is quite interested in those things, or rather, I should say, Xiaojuzi is interested in them.
"Your Highness, please take your time to sort it out. My database will have a lot more inventory in the future."
"Okay, next time we find an opportunity to go to the Imperial Hospital and take a look at those prescriptions and pulse records."
"Okay, although I've recorded quite a bit before, different worlds definitely have their own differences."
