Chapter 1413: Chapter 1413: Soone from the ng Family Is About to Beco an Official
ng Yunzheng’s lips curved, but there wasn’t a hint of humor in his eyes, “Aunt, I’m afraid that won’t work. I ca to the prefecture to study, and I usually bury myself in books and rarely go out. I probably don’t know this area as well as Uncle ng does.”
Upon hearing this, Uncle ng chid in, “Exactly, exactly, Yun is here to study; how would he know which dical clinic is good or which doctor has great skill? I’ve told you before, right? I know two doctors with excellent dical skills, and tomorrow I’ll take you and Ah Qin.”
Ms. Tao’s face turned stiff; she exchanged a glance with Tao Qin, and neither said anything further.
Shu Yu stood by watching the scene with amusent; Ms. Tao’s intentions were far too obvious.
ng Yunzheng no longer paid attention to Ms. Tao. He turned his head and glanced around the room and courtyard but didn’t see the Dongqing Temple master, so he looked at Shu Yu with so suspicion.
“Where’s Master?”
“Gone.”
ng Yunzheng didn’t ask further. He sowhat understood the Dongqing Temple master’s personality, being soone who followed his whims. After eting Shu Yu, he likely went straight to the capital.
He nodded his head, turned back, and exchanged pleasantries with Uncle ng.
Ms. Tao couldn’t get a word in, so she signaled to Tao Qin to cozy up more to ng Yunzheng.
However, Tao Qin was studying Shu Yu, seemingly intending to deal with her first.
Shu Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes; this woman’s mind surely had so issues. The target was ng Yunzheng, yet she was dealing with Shu Yu?
Thankfully, in no ti, Ying Xi returned, followed by a nearby restaurant’s shop assistant bringing over quite a few dishes.
ng Yunzheng invited everyone to sit down. Ms. Tao’s eyes shifted; seeing Uncle ng already seated next to ng Yunzheng, she quickly called her daughter, “Ah Han, sit beside your brother, get to know him better; after all, you haven’t seen each other for years. Brother and sister should talk more.”
She didn’t push Tao Qin to sit next to ng Yunzheng, as that would be too obvious and improper.
But by placing her daughter beside her nephew, she could separate him from Shu Yu.
Shu Yu was speechless at such childish behavior, but ng Yunzheng frowned and said to ng Han, who was about to sit down, “Ah Han, sit to the side, I have sothing to discuss with Yu.”
ng Han paused briefly but was quite obedient as she moved to a seat further away.
Seeing this, Ms. Tao glared at her daughter with frustration but couldn’t say much.
Shu Yu nodded to ng Han and sat down confidently.
Uncle ng truly enjoyed drinking, especially since he was particularly happy today; once seated, he filled his cup generously, “Co, co, Yunzheng, have a drink with Uncle. Our ng family is really in the lilight now; you don’t know how our family generations have been martial artists, who get headaches just looking at books, let alone considering scholarly achievent. In the ng family’s big lineage, there’s been only one child student in decades. You, you’re the only Scholar from our ng family, and still a Triple Scholar, hahaha.”
He patted ng Yunzheng’s shoulder, “Uncle believes, with your talent and ability, you’ll definitely pass the scholarly examination and beco an Advanced Scholar in the future. When you enter the court as an official, our ng family will be blessed with great fortune. Yunzheng, you’re amazing, Uncle is proud of you.”
ng Yunzheng didn’t drink much, just listened quietly.
But Ms. Tao and Tao Qin were quite stirred by Uncle ng’s words.
Yes, ng Yunzheng won the Triple Scholar title, the scholarly examination and Advanced Scholar seem no challenge to him. If she marries him, she’d beco an official’s wife.
