Chapter 299 Charming Song Yun
Shen Xia listened to the voice "Brother Yun", which was soft and pleasant to hear.
Shen Xia glanced at Song Yun, but there was no expression on his face. It seemed that there were outsiders around, so he felt embarrassed.
Yes, there are a lot of people here now.
"Well, hello, Sister Han. Fourth brother, please bring your friends in and sit down. I'll be right at the door." Shen Xia thought that since they were classmates, he must go and entertain them.
In the end, he just said calmly: "Yan Yi, take Brother Qiu and Brother Han in and sit down."
"Yes, Fourth Young Master."
Yan Yi went in with his men.
After a while, Song Yun also went in.
This is?
It seems that he still can't bear to leave the little girl, so he follows her in, right?
But she is Han Ji's sister, so she should be pretty good.
Shen Xia is still entertaining guests outside. This job of entertaining is really not a job for human beings!
The time spent standing was quite long, and Shen Xia lived a lazy life for several years.
My physical strength is just average, it has decreased a lot.
The better seat is occupied by Fan Zifu next to him, who sits there to register personal relationships.
Song Yun only went in for a while.
Came out.
Holding a hot water bottle in his hand.
"It's still a little cold outside, hold this in your arms." Song Yun handed the hot water bottle in his hand to Shen Xia.
"Isn't this bad?"
"What's wrong with that? Your sleeves are too big and you can't see."
Shen Xia felt that her hands were a little cold.
Ok!
Near noon, Song Yun's teacher, the dean of Xingchen Academy, also arrived.
Even though Song Yun passed the imperial examination and became a juren, he did not go to the provincial capital to study, but remained in the Xingchen Academy, so the person who came here was the dean of the Xingchen Academy.
There are other teachers nearby.
But Shen Xia didn’t recognize any of them.
He smiled and greeted him.
This time, Song Yun brought him in personally.
This is equivalent to a key customer.
After a while, another carriage arrived.
Now the roads here have been modified and are very spacious, completely different from what they were back then.
The location here is also high and you can see the whole picture of the town at a glance. It is the most beautiful when the lights are turned on at night.
So it is convenient to have many carriages parked at the door.
Shen Xia looked at the familiar carriage.
This was the newly appointed county magistrate. Although he was older, he was a humble person.
Although Zheng Jinshu returned to Beijing.
But the Song family and the new county magistrate also get along well.
It has been a year since the new county magistrate took office.
Magistrate Fang came with his wife and two children.
A son and a daughter, the daughter looks to be about ten years old.
My son is probably only a few years old.
Probably less than ten years old.
Shen Xia looked at County Magistrate Fang and smiled, "Master Fang, you have worked hard on the journey. It is really an honor to have you visit my humble home."
County Magistrate Fang was also a very good person: "Madam Song, you are joking. Your Song family has many outstanding sons. I want my wife to go and learn from the old lady!"
"Your Excellency really praises our family too much. It's obvious that your son and daughter have been well educated by Madam. They don't need to learn from others." Shen Xia also praised modestly.
At first, Mrs. Fang didn't understand why a young scholar would come here.
Later I heard my husband talk about it along the way.
I never expected that there is such a wealthy family in this countryside. I never expected it.
It just so happens that my daughter is coming of age this year. Isn’t this perfect?
Besides, the fourth son of the Song family is the top scorer in the provincial examination, so it will be no problem for him to pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi.
In addition, I heard that the Song family only has one sister-in-law.
Judging from the way these people behave, they should be able to get along with each other.
The more Mrs. Fang thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.
My husband has a good idea.
Just at this time Song Yun came out.
Looking at Lord Fang: "Hello, Lord Fang."
Older men are quite friendly when looking at younger generations, especially those who are studying!
Song Yun led Lord Fang in.
And Shen Xia brought Mrs. Fang along.
Looking at Jixiang at the door: "Keep an eye on it, I'll go in first."
"Yes, ma'am."
When Mrs. Fang saw Song Yun, she was even more delighted. He was so handsome!
Looking at Shen Xia: "Mrs. Song, is your Silang engaged?"
When Shen Xia heard this, she looked at the shy little girl next to her.
It’s over, another little girl has been harmed.
"No, Fourth Brother said that he would discuss marriage after he passed the imperial examination."
Mrs. Fang heard: "Oh, really?"
Just right!
My daughter is pretty good looking.
I'll go back and discuss it with my husband in the evening.
It must be decided before Young Master Song takes the exam.
Otherwise, with this knowledge and appearance, I'm afraid he would have no chance of success in the capital.
But when they came to talk.
Song Yun has already gone to the capital.
It was a step too late, of course, this is all a story for later.
It seems that most of the guests are seated.
Of course, the guests at this time will not sit randomly. They will sit wherever the host arranges them to sit.
So there are four main tables reserved in the front, two of which are already occupied, and there are still two tables left.
There is one table for our family and another one reserved.
So Lord Fang was arranged to sit at the dean's table.
Mrs. Fang was seated at the female table.
Then he called Song's mother from the front hall to accompany the guests.
As time passed, noon came.
All the guests have arrived.
Everyone was seated and the ceremony began.
In fact, Song Yun said that the coming-of-age ceremony should be simple, but the Song family felt that the previous champion did not hold a banquet, so this time, they must hold a banquet for the coming-of-age ceremony.
Let’s talk about it further. Except for the eldest brother who got married at a young age and the family was relatively poor, the second and third brothers also got married later.
In addition, in ancient times, the coming-of-age ceremony for men and the coming-of-age ceremony for women were both very important.
It’s just that the second and third brothers didn’t hire as many people as they do now.
Many of the town’s gentry came here.
More and more wealthy people are coming to Fanhua Town, hoping to do some business with the Song family.
The Song family has had many connections in recent years, but they were far away for business purposes, and Song Jin didn't invite them, so they didn't come.
All the other familiar people came, including all the workers in the factory.
So now the yard is really overcrowded!
There haven't been so many people in many years.
The last time was when Shen Xia got married.
Song Yun went back to change clothes.
Shen Xia sat with Mrs. Fang and Han Shuang.
As for the children, Shen Xia didn't care about them at all. With Xiaowu and Xiaotian around, the three children would never appear in front of Shen Xia.
Today is Song Yun’s coming-of-age ceremony, and a high platform has been specially built in the mansion.
First, the dean came on stage on behalf of Song Jin to deliver a speech of thanks, and then invited Song Yun’s teacher to come on stage to preside over the ceremony.
When everyone heard that this teacher was the dean of Xingchen Academy, they all looked around curiously.
At this time, Song Yun came onto the stage wearing a specially made student uniform. His hair was still half-disheveled, making him look very handsome.
He walked steadily to the Master and knelt respectfully.
The people in the audience watched this scene quietly.
Shen Xia sighed inwardly, she had known for a long time that Song Yun was handsome, but seeing the astonished looks of the people below the stage, she became even more convinced of her own judgment.
See! She wasn't the only one who thought Song Yun was handsome; everyone was attracted by him.
The dean first read a speech about the duties and responsibilities that men should have when they turn twenty years old, and then began to tie Song Yun's hair up, gathering his hair on top of his head and tying it into a bun.
Finally, add the crown and say the blessing again.
