Chapter 388: The news that the second
uncle Wei Yichen the imperial examination also reached Wei Qingwan’s ears.
Wei Qingwan felt mixed emotions for a while when he heard the news.
She sat quietly in the dilapidated courtyard of Zhuangzi, looking into the distance in trance.
"Miss, are you unhappy? The eldest young master has become a civil servant. What an honor it is. You can take the imperial examination again in the future. If you win the imperial examination, your future will be unlimited." Cuihe asked.
"What's the use? He treats me like a stranger now. No matter how capable he is in the future, he won't take care of me." Wei Qingwan looked sad and sad.
"Miss, don't think so. Although the eldest young master is no longer friendly to you, he is your eldest brother after all. Even if he doesn't treat you well at home, he still has to take care of the relationship between brother and sister when he goes out of the house. And as long as he has Prospective, Miss, your status in your husband's family will be guaranteed no matter you get married in the future." Cui He analyzed for Wei Qingwan.
"How could I not know?" Wei Qingwan naturally knew the stakes involved, "It's just..."
"Just what?" Cuihe asked.
"There is no news about Mr. Qi so far...I wonder if something happened." Wei Qingwan was extremely worried.
When they met that day, Mr. Qi promised himself that he would write a letter home to mention the matter, and that he would also go to her father to propose marriage.
There has been a lot of good news at home in recent days. Her father was promoted to the fifth rank of defense, and her brother passed the imperial examination again. However, Wei Qingwan has not waited for the news from Qi Zhen.
He had not contacted her for ten days in a row, which made her worried.
"Miss, don't worry. Mr. Qi is a busy man. He must have a lot of things to do. It's not that he doesn't care about you, miss." "
I believe him, I'm just worried about his family," Wei Qingwan said.
"Miss, don't worry, your current status has risen with the change in the status of the master and the eldest young master, and you are gradually becoming worthy of Mr. Qi." Cuihe explained.
"I hope so." Wei Qingwan said.

The fact that Wei Yichen won the imperial examination made the Wei family lively for a while.
During this period, Wei Ruo also heard that Wei Yichen's classmate Xu Fengyuan also won the exam. Not only did he win the exam, but he also won the first place in the exam. This event made the Xu family lively and numerous celebrities came to express their congratulations.
In addition, there is another person Wei Ruo knows who also won the election, that is Zhao Xun.
This was something Wei Ruo didn't expect. Considering Zhao Xun's physical condition, it was already very good to be able to complete the exam.
As a result, he actually passed the exam, and Wei Ruo had to look at Zhao Xun with admiration.
If this person is healthy, we don’t know what achievements he will make in the future.
During this period, Wei Mingyong had been living in the general's mansion and would talk to Wei Yichen whenever he had time.
Because Wei Mingting was away from home most of the time, all he could do was do Wei Yichen's ideological work.
Wei Yichen's reaction was relatively cold, and he was quite polite to Wei Mingyong, but he was very perfunctory about what he said and did not let go at all, which made Wei Mingyong very depressed.
That day, after being rejected by Wei Yichen, he planned to go out for a walk to relax.
When he was at the door, he met Wei Ruo who was coming back from outside. Wei Mingyong immediately called out to Wei Ruo.
"Eldest niece." Wei Ruo stopped and looked at Wei Mingyong.
It had been several days since Wei Mingyong came to the General's Mansion, and this was the first time the two of them met head-on.
On weekdays, Wei Ruo either stayed in his courtyard or went out, and rarely interacted with other people in the house, let alone Wei Mingyong.
Wei Mingyong actually wanted to talk to Wei Ruo, but he couldn't find a suitable opportunity. He didn't just go to Wei Ruo's yard to look for her like he was looking for Wei Yichen.
Today was his chance.
"Second uncle, is there something wrong?" Wei Ruo asked.
Wei Mingyong had a friendly smile on his face: "Eldest niece, my second uncle heard about you when he was in the capital. You are truly the legitimate daughter of our uncle Zhongyi's house. You are very much like your grandmother."
"Thank you, Second Uncle." Wei Ruo smiled politely and distantly.
Wei Mingyong then said: "My eldest niece, you are now fourteen years old. These two years are a good time for you to discuss marriage. If your family can be more famous, it will be easier for you to discuss marriage." "Marriage
" Important matters are determined by the parents' orders and the matchmaker's words." Wei Ruo replied.
"But you have to know that the glory of the family is closely related to everyone in the family. No matter when, the Wei family will always be your backer." Wei Mingyong added.
"That should be the case." Wei Ruo said calmly.
Wei Mingyong then sighed and said: "Hey, it's a pity that your father doesn't understand this very well. He only thinks about how to win the war and how to protect the family and the country. He doesn't think about the glory of the family at all." "Isn't it him who wins the war
? The supreme honor of myself and the Wei family? How can the second uncle say that his father does not care about the glory of the family?" Wei Ruo asked.
"There is nothing wrong with him winning the battle, but this is not a long-term solution. I don't think the Japanese pirates will be able to cause trouble for long. If we want the Zhongyi House to maintain its long-term glory, we must have a few more capable people in the family, especially those who can A few civil servants who are established in the court can help your father!" Wei Mingyong said.
"Isn't my eldest brother successful now? I believe that with his talents, he will be able to serve as an official in the court soon. Then he and his father will take care of each other." Wei Ruodao.
"Your eldest brother is a bit younger after all, and if there is no one to support him, it will be very difficult for him to rise to the top." "
Then the second uncle should ask the other cousins in the family to work hard and create a few more candidates, ah no ...It seems that the other cousins haven’t passed the scholar examination yet, so we should first pass the scholar examination,” Wei Ruodao said.
"That's not what I meant." Wei Mingyong frowned.
"What are you talking about, second uncle? Don't you hope that there will be more people in the family to help father? Don't you hope that the family will have more civil servants?" Wei Ruo asked.
Wei Mingyong sighed again: "Hey, I'd better tell you directly. There is a very good opportunity in front of our Wei family. As long as your father nods, our Wei family will have the opportunity to get His Highness the Sixth Prince of the Dynasty. This is much faster than taking the imperial examination."
Wei Ruo smiled, in fact, she knew what Wei Mingyong meant just now.
"Second uncle who wants to seduce the Sixth Prince should go it alone. What should he do with my father who can't bring enough glory to the family?" Wei Ruo asked.
"You child, I've been talking to you for a long time, why don't you understand? The sixth prince asked your father and you to assist him. Your father agrees to this." "The second uncle said it very well
. It's funny. On the one hand, the second uncle thinks that my father's abilities are limited and not enough to support the glory of the Wei family. But on the other hand, he says that only if my father agrees to serve the sixth prince will he be promoted to the Wei family. So, what is my father's role? Are you capable or incapable?"
