Chapter 580 Shocking News
Xiao Qing pouted, "I wanted to learn kung fu when I was a child, but it was my mother who didn't let me learn it!"
The princess saw what happened today most clearly. If Gu Fei didn't have kung fu, her whole face would have been scratched to pieces by the big cat.
She suddenly felt a little regretful. She should have let Xiao Qing learn some kung fu, so that she could at least protect herself.
After two more rounds, the maids and women came in and out and set up the table.
Everyone got up to eat the reunion dinner.
At this time, all the lanterns and candles inside and outside the house were lit.
The whole house was as bright as day.
The sound of stringed instruments came from the hall outside. I think their men were watching the dancers dancing for fun.
The women in the flower hall had dinner and called the actors raised in the mansion to perform a small play.
At the same time, in the prime minister's mansion in the capital.
After the reunion dinner, the family also gathered together to stay up all night.
It was just a hundred days after Su Chen's father passed away. There was no atmosphere of the New Year at home during the New Year.
There were no spring couplets in the whole house. Today's New Year's Eve dinner was all vegetarian, and there was no wine. There was no sound of music in the whole house.
Prime Minister Su looked at his nephew with a thin face and sunken cheeks and sighed, "Chen'er, your father's 100th day has passed. You don't have to stay at his grave anymore. Just go home and study."
He felt sad and regretful about his brother's death.
He also felt sorry for Su Chen.
Su Chen won the title of Jieyuan in Donghai County in the autumn examination. If this hadn't happened, the spring examination would be in more than a month, and his nephew would definitely have a place.
It is very likely that he would be in the top three.
Now, Su Chen is the only scholar in the family.
One of his two sons is almost 30 years old, and he barely passed the examination to become a juren.
The other is even more stupid and doesn't even have the title of a scholar.
The future of the Su family depends on Su Chen.
This child is also filial. After returning to the capital and burying his father, he built a thatched hut in front of the grave to mourn for his father.
In such a cold day, he was wearing linen clothes and didn’t use charcoal fire. He was really worried that his nephew would get sick from the cold.
Su Chen was about to say something after hearing what his uncle said, but Prime Minister Su waved his hand, "You must listen to me about this matter. I know you are filial, but you should also think about your father. Would he be willing for you to suffer so much?"
Su Chen lowered his head and said nothing. Prime Minister Su said again: "I have ordered people to demolish the thatched cottage. You are not allowed to live there anymore. Just study at home!"
After a while, Su Chen nodded slightly, "Follow the teachings of my uncle."
Prime Minister Su said with relief: "This is a good child."
"By the way, I received a letter from your uncle yesterday, saying that your cousin, the prince, has married. Because of the rush of things, he didn't have time to notify our house."
"When you have time, you should also write a letter to congratulate your cousin."
Su Chen was slightly startled, "Brother Yu has already married?"
"I wonder which daughter he married?"
Prime Minister Su recalled the content of the letter, "It is said that it is a farmer's girl, surnamed Gu--"
"What?" Su Chen was stunned for a moment, and couldn't believe what he heard.
Prime Minister Su thought for a moment, "Yes, it's a farm girl. It's said that this girl once saved your cousin's life, and she has good character and looks. Your cousin insisted on marrying her, so your uncle agreed."
Su Chen's mind seemed to be hit by thousands of hammers, and his head was buzzing. While he told himself that this was not true, he kept thinking back to the scene at the Lotus Festival.
Brother Yu rushed into the crowd on horseback and rescued Xiao Fei.
But he could only watch blankly.
Su Chen's eyes were straight, his face was pale, and suddenly his throat felt sweet and he spat out a mouthful of blood, and the whole person fell back straight.
