Chapter 55
Fucheng.

A carriage slowly drove into the main street from the city gate.

It was already afternoon, the sun was setting to the west, and there were many fewer pedestrians on the road, which seemed a little deserted.

Coupled with the closing of stalls on both sides of the street, and the closing of stalls, the excitement is gone.

However, the spacious main street still shocked the two people in the carriage. Not to mention this person, but the width of the street was much wider than their small Qinghe County.

It's worthy of being a prefectural city, but it's different!
On the carriage, it was none other than Pozi Liu and Shen Ji who opened the curtain and looked outside secretly.

Both of them looked out with a little embarrassment. Although neither of them wanted to get out of the carriage, their reactions highlighted their different personalities.

Grandma Liu looked at the street outside with uncontrollable excitement on her face.

Shen Ji, on the other hand, was obviously a little apprehensive, and his eyes were full of confusion about the future.

He really didn't expect that his son was so promising, not to mention being a scholar, but he could still marry a daughter of Fucheng.

Shen Ji never thought of this.

At the beginning, I only wanted to support my son to study, became a scholar, and could stand up straight in the village. I really didn't expect that my son would have such a chance. This is really...

Shen Ji was still feeling emotional in his heart, when suddenly, someone slapped his arm heavily.

Grandma Liu's eyes were full of pride, even though her butt still hurt, and the wound seemed to be more serious after two days of non-stop driving, but the joy at the moment completely overwhelmed the pain.

Granny Liu looked flushed, she stared at Shen Ji with bright eyes, and raised her chin and said.

"As expected of my son! If we know the book, we will be promising. Look, after learning the book, we will live in this prefecture. Now it is nothing to be a scholar. Continue to study. With our son's intelligence, in the future It is not impossible to become an official in the capital!"

Listening to Mrs. Liu's words, Shen Ji imagined the scene for a while, and he was terrified and happy at the same time.

What's frightening is that his family has never produced such a talent, and the joy is that if there is someone who will go to the capital to become an official, it will be Guangzong Yaozu!

Shen Ji couldn't be happier just thinking about it.

But soon, his joy was overshadowed by deep worry. He looked at the happy old woman, and moved his eyes to Donglai, the boy who was driving the carriage outside, hesitating to speak.

During the two days of rushing, Mrs. Liu and Shen Ji still inquired about some news, one is Donglai's name, and the other is that their future daughter-in-law's surname is Lin, who is a well-known wealthy businessman's daughter in Fucheng and is very popular.

What about the daughter-in-law here, Shen Ji is not very worried, although her son is the one who stepped in, but doesn't this woman have to obey her father at home, her husband when she gets married, and her son after her husband's death?Always rely on men.

Moreover, his son is not soft-tempered, and he can definitely control the style of the head of the family.

The only thing Shen Ji was worried about was his future in-laws, that is, the head of the Lin family, Master Lin.

No matter how you say it, the masters in Fucheng are stronger than those masters in Qinghe County, right?

Shen Ji had never seen a rich man in Qinghe County a few times, and now the rich man he was going to meet for the first time was his own in-laws, Shen Ji still had some doubts in his heart.

Even... a little want to retreat.

Now that he has arrived in Fucheng and is about to go to Lin's house, Shen Ji doesn't know much about Master Lin.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious Shen Ji plucked up his courage and said to Dong, who was driving the carriage: "Dong Lai, you are here at the Lin family...you should be very popular, right? Can you tell us about the situation of Master Lin? "

"We're going to see our in-laws soon, so it's not good to be unclear, and we have to have a clue..."

Granny Liu also gradually pulled away from her joy, and looked at her man in surprise.

Unexpectedly, Dim Sum, a cowardly waste, is so smart once in a while, and knows how to inquire about the situation of his in-laws before visiting.

Mrs. Liu thought about it, but she didn't say anything provocative, she followed suit and questioned Dong Lai.

"Yeah, Donglai, you came to pick us up this time, so you can talk to us in this neighbor's house. Tell us, is our in-law, Mr. Lin, good at talking?"

Dong Lai was a little flattered by the obvious flattery of the two, but it was not easy to show off, so he just raised his chin and said quite proudly.

"Master Shen, Mrs. Shen, don't worry, master... is still very kind. If you want to talk about our master Lin, then you have to talk about our Lin family. Is our city big enough? There are many rich and noble families here."

"But our Lin family is also a respectable and wealthy family in this prefecture city! You don't know that our master and the magistrate have friendship!"

As Dong said, his chin never dropped, and his face was full of pride, as if the master Lin he was talking about was not the one sitting in the Lin family, but himself.

However, Granny Liu and Shen Ji were shocked by his words.

Wasn't it shocking that Master Lin actually had friendship with the magistrate?

Mrs. Liu and Shen Ji don't know how big the magistrate is, but he is in charge of the whole prefecture, so he must be bigger than the magistrate of Qinghe County, right?
Thinking of the county magistrate of Qinghe County, Granny Liu felt a pain in her butt, but if she married the Lin family now, it would be considered a relationship with the magistrate, right?
In this way, shouldn't the county magistrate of Qinghe County have to be more polite when he sees her?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu felt that her back was getting stiffer, and a sneer appeared on her face.

If this is the case, when her son gets married and she returns to the village, she must take care of Shen Chenchen's cheap hoof!
How dare you take advantage of the magistrate's time to beat her?Now that she has master Lin and the prefect as her backers, she wants to see how that damn girl can turn around!

Just wait, when she returns from Fucheng, she will definitely make Shen Chenchen regret the stupid things she did back then!

When Mrs. Liu got excited, she wanted to stand up subconsciously, but she only exerted force on her legs, and the injury on her butt was involved, and she grinned from the pain.

Seeing Granny Liu like this, Shen Ji glanced at the dog's back outside, quickly put down the curtain, supported Granny Liu angrily, and said in a low voice.

"Oh, calm down, your son will get married in a few days, if you still behave like this at the wedding banquet, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

Although Mrs. Liu was dissatisfied with Shen Ji's attitude, the content of what she said was correct.

No, she has to calm down and heal her injuries. At least on the day of the wedding, she must not make a fool of herself. She must not embarrass her son!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu pulled her hand back, glared at Shen Ji and said, "Just talk about me, you should pay more attention to me. When you are in front of your in-laws, don't be cowardly. We represent the face of your son!"
