Chapter 318 Going to the provincial capital to wait for the exam
Anzhou Academy.
After class, all the students went from the school to their residence. Wei Yichen was walking on the road when Xu Fengyuan stopped him.
"Brother Xu, what's the matter?"
"The matter with your eldest sister is not what I want." Xu Fengyuan said.
"What's the matter?" Wei Yichen looked at Xu Fengyuan puzzled.
"My grandfather suddenly changed his mind and chose another wife for me." Xu Fengyuan said.
Hearing this, Wei Yichen was stunned for two seconds, and then he was a little happy because this matter was finally resolved: "Brother Xu, don't be sad, you will definitely meet a better match."
Xu Fengyuan was a little persistent: "Brother Wei, why don't you understand me? To me, the eldest sister of the Ni family is different. If I hadn't met her, I would follow the arrangement of my parents and elders and marry someone they think is suitable. , but when I met her, I had my own ideas."
Seeing Xu Fengyuan's serious expression, Wei Yichen felt a little emotional for a while.
Wei Yichen comforted: "Brother Xu, some things cannot be forced. My eldest sister has no intention of being interested in you, and now even the elders of your family don't like it. It can be seen that the two of you really have no fate, so it's better to stop here."
Xu Fengyuan looked depressed: "Brother Wei, I won't give up just like that. I will find a chance to go home and ask my grandparents clearly."
"Brother Xu, the autumn exam is approaching, so we should focus on studies." Wei Yichen advised.
He hoped that Xu Fengyuan could focus on his studies so that he would gradually forget about his eldest sister.
Speaking of the autumn test, Xu Fengyuan really calmed down a bit. Indeed, he shouldn't be disturbed by the affection of his children at this time.
"I understand, I will tell my grandfather that the matter of discussing marriage can be delayed until I win the election, and then it will not be too late."
Xu Fengyuan immediately made a decision. He will not bother the eldest girl of the Wei family, but at the same time, he must prevent the elders in the family from arranging other marriages for him.
Hearing what Xu Fengyuan said, Wei Yichen didn't know whether to be happy or worried for a while, but at least in a short period of time, his eldest sister didn't have to face the trouble of negotiating with Xu's family.

On July 15th, Wei Yichen returned home.
This trip was mainly for two things. One was that my father was going back to the military camp after today, and he came back to see his father off.
The second is for the autumn test.
The autumn exam is the rural exam. Students have to go to the provincial capital to take the exam. In order to better cope with the exam, many students will live in the provincial capital some time in advance to ensure that there will be no accidents that will delay the exam.
Now the students of Anzhou College have already left for the provincial capital one after another.
Families with conditions, such as the Xu family, bought Xu Fengyuan a house in the provincial capital early on.
Those with lower conditions will rent a secluded house in advance and let the servants accompany them to take care of them.
Of course, there are also those who choose to stay in inns. There are those inns that are specially rented for long-term by candidates who take the exam. The price is relatively cheap, and the environment is not bad.
Wei Yichen also intends to discuss this matter with his parents when he returns home this time.
He knows the family situation, his father is a clean and honest official with only a meager salary; the family foundation is weak and there is not much extra income, so he plans to rent a hotel like most students.
Back home, Wei Yichen went to see Wei Mingting and Yun Shi first as usual.
Today is a holiday, other members of the family are here, except Wei Ruo is absent.
Wei Yichen is not surprised by this, the disaster relief and land reclamation activities in Fucheng are in full swing, and the eldest sister is extremely busy, so it is normal not to have a rest.
Wei Yichen mentioned to Wei Mingting and Yun's plan to go to Fucheng to stay in an inn, but Yun's objected.
"This can't be the case, Chen'er, you are the son of the Zhongyi uncle's mansion, if you live in the inn with those common people's children, it will be disgraceful." Yun Shi has her considerations.
Even though the Duke of Loyalty’s Mansion has fallen, the title has not been confiscated after all. Yun believes that the dignity that a noble family should have is still there.
"Mother, I think it's better to consider the family situation first. At this age, I should save as much as I can. In order to donate to the land reclamation and disaster relief operations in Fucheng, my mother has already taken out her own money and pawned the reward from my father. , I can’t let my parents bother anymore.”
Wei Yichen and Yun's views are slightly different.
He knew about the land reclamation activities in Fucheng. In order not to fall behind others, the Wei family paid a large sum of money. Part of this money was given by grandparents far away in the capital, and part of it was Yun's own private money and pawns. Some of the rewards in the family came from it.
"No, no matter how difficult it is at home, it will not make you lose face in the autumn exam, and the inn is full of people, how can you study with peace of mind?" Yun asked.
"Most of the people living in the inn are candidates rushing to take the exam from various places in the provincial capital. Most of them are mainly studying. It is still slightly different from the usual inn where fish and dragons are mixed."
"Even if they are all students, there are good and bad people. It is inevitable that you will meet some unpopular and troublesome people. I will not let you take this risk." Yun still insisted on his own opinion.
"But mother..."
"You don't need to say any more, my mother will rent a good place for you in advance." Yun said resolutely.
Immediately afterwards, Yun Shiyu said to Wei Yichen earnestly: "Chen'er, the most important thing for you now is to study hard and prepare for the autumn exam. You don't need to be distracted by other things. You can leave the accommodation to your mother. You Believe that mother can do it for you."
Yun said so, Wei Yichen couldn't refuse anymore.
"I'm tired of my mother, my son has made my mother worry a lot." Wei Yichen said.

At three o'clock in the morning, Wei Ruo returned to Xiaowei's mansion.
At this time, most of the family members have already rested.
Different from the previous few days, today he was stopped by Cuiping as soon as he entered the door.
Having had previous experience, Wei Ruo knew clearly that seeing Cuiping at the door meant that the Yun family had something to look for.
And if he is still waiting for him at this point in time, Yun's job to find him is definitely not small.
Wei Ruo knew that Wei Mingting would leave home to go to the military camp after dinner today, but he didn't expect that the Yun family would find him just after Wei Mingting left home.
Wei Ruo knew that it was useless to talk to Cuiping, so he didn't waste his words and followed Cuiping to Cangyun Garden.
Entering the house, Yun Shi is waiting for Wei Ruo.
The four eyes met, and the expressions of the mother and daughter were very dull.
Wei Ruo's indifference is the same as before, and Yun's attitude towards Wei Ruo does not know when it lost the enthusiasm and concern when they first met.
Now she no longer expects to get close to this biological daughter.
"I came to you because of your elder brother's business." Yun said.
"What's the specific matter?" Wei Ruo asked directly without beating around the bush.
"Your eldest brother is going to the provincial capital to prepare for the exam, and needs to rent a house." Yun said.
