Chapter 784: Not returning home in splendor is like walking in splendor at night
When Gui Geer saw his brother Shan wearing the imitation official uniform, his eyes lit up like big light bulbs and he said excitedly: "Brother Shan, you are so handsome."
Sun Shan glanced at Gui Ge'er proudly and was very pleased with his praise.
Sun Dali and Sun Dingnan were as enthusiastic and unrestrained as Gui Ge'er. They circled around Sun Shan and looked at him, shouting, "Ashan, you are so beautiful."
When the personal nanny saw Sun Shan's Jinshi uniform, she thought of Young Master Shu Yun who was also wearing the same uniform.
She couldn't help but laugh and said happily, "Madam, Master Sun looks so handsome in the imperial scholar's dress. When our Yun'er wore this dress, he looked completely different and so handsome."
Sun Shan learned from Jiujin and his servants that Jiujin's father He Shuyun was also a fat man.
Tsk tsk~ If Jiujin wore a mini version of the Jinshi costume, he could still be praised as cute.
The fat He Shuyun put on the Jinshi uniform... We can only say that love has blinded the eyes of the personal nanny.
When Mrs. He saw Sun Shan in his imperial scholar uniform, she smiled and asked, "Shanzi, does it fit you? Do you want it altered?"
After the skillful embroiderer made many alterations here and there, the clothes finally fit her perfectly.
Sun Shan said gratefully, "Grandma, it fits me very well now. Thank you very much."
Madam He said quickly: "Why thank you? We are all family now."
The personal nanny joked, "Madam, it's a pity that Miss Yun is not here. If she were here, she would definitely be amazed at the son-in-law wearing the imperial scholar's uniform."
Sun Shan smiled and said, "Mammy, that's right. Sister Yun is unlucky. She can't see how pretty I am."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter.
Madam He waved her hand and said, "You are such a sly person."
Sun Shan said goodbye to the old lady in his scholar's robes.
It’s not that Sun Shan is busy, but that the old lady needs to take care of the household.
The He family is smaller than other official families, but there are actually quite a few people in it.
I heard that the He family’s businesses are not only in their hometown, but also in Beijing.
During this period, Sun Shan observed again and again and found that most of Minister He's properties were fields and shops, with "rent" as the main source of income.
Life is relatively low-key and ordinary.
Compared with Chen Dongling's luxury and splendor, it feels completely different.
The three meals a day at the He family are almost the same as at home.
Eating at Chen Dongling's place was too extravagant.
It seems that making money is still possible through business.
No wonder He Shujun said that the Chen family has been becoming more and more prosperous in recent years, much more prosperous than their He family.
This is because having money can open up new opportunities. Especially with Chen Dongling, a Confucian businessman who knows how to do business, the Chen family is even richer.
Sun Shan led Sun Dingnan, Sun Dali, and Gui Ge'er out of the inner courtyard and returned to the Idle People's Garden.
When I think of the Chen family, I think of Sunjia Village.
When seeing Chen Dongling off, he also wrote a letter back to his hometown.
It mainly writes about the fact that he passed the imperial examination and had to take the palace examination. After passing the palace examination, he would become a Jinshi.
After that, he will stay in the capital and travel around, trying to get an official position.
I am not sure what position I will take and where I will be appointed.
Sun Shan told his family that everything was fine in the capital and asked them not to worry.
Waiting for him to be appointed as an official and then go home.
If you don’t return to your hometown with your brocade clothes, it’s like walking in brocade clothes at night.
Sun Shan would definitely go home and brag about it so that everyone in the surrounding area would know that Sunjia Village had produced a Jinshi, a high-ranking official, and make the villagers happy.
Moreover, returning home in glory is the most glorious moment in life, and Sun Shan was afraid that he would miss it and would never have the chance again.
After all, the arrangements of fate are unpredictable. Make yourself happy first and worry about the future later.
Sun Shan laughed out loud as he walked.
Then he looked around and found that there were only three members of the Sun family, so he smiled with relief.
Gui Ge'er asked in confusion: "Brother Shan, what are you laughing at?"
Sun Shan said happily, "I am happy to be wearing the imperial scholar's uniform today, so I am smiling."
The people in Sunjia Village are used to Sun Shan being so straightforward.
The farmer Sun Dali was also delighted and said happily: "Ashan, I am very happy too. Your clothes are really beautiful. Hehe, you look even more handsome in them."
After saying this, he moved closer to Sun Shan and asked flatteringly, "Ashan, can I touch you?"
Sun Shan said indifferently: "Uncle Dali, you can touch it if you like."
When Sun Shan said this, Sun Dali was very happy and was about to touch it with his rough hands.
Gui Ge'er hurriedly pulled Sun Shan away to block his powerful "dirty hands".
He said hurriedly, "Uncle Dali, you can't touch it. Your hands are rough, what if you break it? This is given by the government, and you will be punished if you break it."
Gui Ge'er didn't dare let Sun Dali's calloused hands touch Sun Shan's imperial examination robes.
How could such fine material be touched by rough hands like Sun Dali?
Gui Ge'er would never allow such a thing to happen.
Sun Dingnan also agreed and said, "Gui Ge'er is right, Uncle Dali, don't touch it. If you touch the thread, you will be punished."
The Jinshi uniform must be returned, so it must not be damaged. It is the government's property, and they would not dare to damage it even if they had ten times the courage.
Sun Dali was not angry at all because of Gui Ge'er and Sun Dingnan's obstruction. He nodded repeatedly and said, "I didn't think enough. You are right. I shouldn't touch it."
Sun Shan was speechless, shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter, just touch it, it won't break anything."
Then he smiled and said, "If it's so easy to be damaged by touching, it will definitely be damaged if I wear it like this. Haha, Uncle Dali, you can touch it without worry."
But Sun Dali refused to touch it for fear of damaging it.
Sun Shan was helpless about this, so he shook his head and followed him.
Gui Ge'er "helped" Sun Shan back to Xianren Garden.
He said excitedly: "Brother Shan, if my uncle saw you wearing the imperial robes bestowed by the emperor, he would definitely be very happy. It's a pity that he is not in the capital."
Speaking of Sunjia Village, everyone misses home.
We set off in August last year and it’s March now.
From summer to spring, I have been away from home for 9 months, and I don’t know whether my family is doing well.
Sun Dingnan said with homesickness: "I don't know if my family is doing well. They probably haven't even heard that Ashan passed the imperial examination."
The results of the imperial examination will be announced at the end of February, and it will take some time for them to reach Guangnan, especially in early spring when the roads are difficult to travel, so it will take even longer.
Sunjia Village probably doesn't know the situation in the capital.
Sun Dali sighed and said, "I don't know if my little brats will listen to me. They have to be beaten every day."
Gui Ge'er rolled his eyes at Sun Dali.
Beat, beat, beat! He is so rude, such a rough man. It is so hard to be his son.
Then he thought of Jinhua's belly and asked quickly, "Brother Shan, do you think Jinhua gave birth?"
Heaven and earth, please bless me, and Laozi will appear soon.
With the blessing of all the ancestors of the Sun family, Jinhua must give him a daughter, preferably a fat and lovable one.
Sun Shan was stunned, and after some calculations, he found that Jinhua was indeed born at this time.
He nodded and said, "Gui'er, if you calculate it this way, your wife has indeed given birth. Hey, congratulations, Gui'er, you are going to be a father."
Gui Ge'er looked pale and asked nervously, "I wonder if the mother and daughter are safe?"
Sun Shan was just trying to comfort Gui Ge'er.
Sun Dali said confidently, "Gui'er, don't worry. Jinhua will definitely take a big step forward and give you a big fat daughter. My mother said that Jinhua is hardworking and efficient at work. Giving birth is just like working, very easy. Don't worry. She's waiting to go back and be your father."
