The Red Mansion's Doting Wife Maniac

Chapter 239

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!!"

When Han Bowen opened his eyes, he saw a little Douding lying beside his bed.

It was his younger brother, Han Xiuwen.

"Ash."

Han Xiuwen was lying on the bedside, looking at his brother eagerly, "Didn't brother say that he wants to take me out to play today? The sun is shining on my butt and my brother is still sleeping."

Hearing this, Han Bowen sat up propped up and looked out of the window. The sky was bright outside, and it might have already been high in the sun.

Han Bowen rubbed his brother's head, "Go outside and wait for brother, brother will wash and change clothes right away."

"Okay!" Han Xiuwen replied crisply when he heard that his brother was going to get up and change clothes, and then ran to the outside room.

When Han Xiuwen went out, the smile on Han Bowen's face disappeared.

Slowly raised his hand, rubbed it tremblingly, and took a deep breath.

it is true……

He is back!

Han Bowen was in a daze for a while, put on his shoes on the bed, and took a bronze mirror to take a picture.

The boy in the mirror looked at most thirteen or fourteen years old.

He looked at the familiar face in the mirror.

Not as pale as after being deposed, but full of vigor.

He smiled at the mirror, "This time, I won't let you be humiliated again."

Putting down the mirror, Han Bowen called someone in to help him wash and change his clothes.

The Han family is also a scholarly family. Starting from the generation of Han Bowen's great-grandfather, generations of imperial examinations have become officials.

However, the Han family is not prosperous, and there are only two brothers in Han Bowen's generation.

Compared with the wealthy families in the south of the Yangtze River who have been officials for generations, the Han family is naturally inferior, but Han Bowen's grandfather was an official official from the Ministry of Rites. He is not as good as the wealthy family in terms of background, but in terms of official position, the Han family is not bad now.It's just that Han Bowen's father has no talent, and he is only a doctor in the Ministry of Industry with the help of the old man.

Han Bowen packed up and came to the outside room. When Han Xiuwen was waiting for him, he had already eaten all the pastries on the table.

"Brother, you are so slow!" Han Xiuwen complained when he saw his brother coming out. wwω.ЪiqíΚù.ИěT.

Han Bowen is more than eight years older than his younger brother Han Xiuwen. He loves his younger brother very much and almost responds to every request.

"It's my brother's fault. I kept Ashura waiting for a long time." Han Bowen said.

Han Xiuwen ran over and hugged his brother's leg, "I want to watch the lantern festival! I want to watch the lantern festival!"

"The lantern festival is at night, it's still early." Han Bowen picked up his younger brother, "But I can take you to the temple fair first, and then go to the lantern festival after visiting the temple fair."

As long as Han Xiuwen can go out and play, he is willing to do anything.

Happy to answer.

Han Bowen went out with his younger brother in his arms. Because his younger brother was young, he was afraid of encountering kidnappers, so he brought enough people with him when he went out to avoid accidents.

Today is the Lantern Festival, and the streets and alleys are crowded with people. When Han Bowen went out, he was worried about his younger brother, so he went out in a carriage. Looking at the people on the street now, he was extremely grateful that he had made the right decision.

When we arrived at the temple fair street, there were even more people, and it was almost impossible for a carriage to move.

"A lot of people."

Han Xiuwen is not very old, only four or five years old. In the past few years, he was too young, and his parents would not let him go out when there were many people, especially on festivals.

The curfew is late on festival days, and there are many people on the street. Kidnaps like to fish in troubled waters when there are many people like this.

It is not easy for the Han family to have two children, so of course it is important.

Therefore, this was the first time Han Xiuwen went out to play on a festival day. He was excited to see so many people and wanted to go out to play.

Han Bowen suppressed him, "There are too many people on the street, don't go down, if you meet a kidnapper, you will never see your brother and parents again."

Being intimidated by his brother, Han Xiuwen behaved a lot, but he kept looking out of the car window.

Han Bowen has been looking after his younger brother.

At the temple fair, Han Bowen took his younger brother for a walk. Four or five-year-old Xiao Douding, who was not light in weight, walked all the way in his arms, and Han Bowen was so tired that he was sweating profusely.

Han Bowen is just a thirteen or fourteen-year-old frail scholar, and his physical strength is really not that good.

Seeing his brother's face turning pale with exhaustion, Han Xiuwen hugged his brother's neck, "Brother, please let me down, I can walk by myself."

"No, I'm worried about the crowds on the street." Han Bowen refused.

"But brother is very tired."

Han Bowen pursed his lips and asked the boy to wipe his sweat, "Brother is not tired."

After strolling around the street, Han Bowen took his brother home.

The clothes on his body were soaked with sweat, and it was cold in the first month. Han Bowen cherished his body very much now, and without thinking about it, he took his brother home to take a shower and change clothes.

Seeing that his brother was so tired, Han Xiuwen was also very well-behaved and didn't make a fuss about going to the lantern festival.

On the contrary, Han Bowen's parents couldn't bear to see their son so well-behaved, so they decided to go out to watch the lantern festival as a family.

Mr. Han asked people to book a private room in a restaurant. Private rooms in restaurants on He Street are very popular during the Lantern Festival, but Mrs. Han's official position is not low, so it is not difficult to book a private room.

Han Bowen changed his clothes, and when he came out, he heard that his father and mother were going to watch the Lantern Festival together, so he couldn't help being taken aback.

In his impression, father and mother never went to the Lantern Festival with their brothers.

Could it be that his parents changed their minds because he temporarily decided to go home today?

"Bowen? What's wrong? What are you thinking?"

Han Bowen came back to his senses, "Ah? It's all right."

"Come on, let's go out."

Mrs. Han greeted her youngest son in her arms, and then walked out.

The family headed for River Street in a carriage.

On the way, Mrs. Han said, "Bowen, you are fourteen this year, and the marriage should be settled. What do you think?"

Han Bowen was startled when he heard the words, and lowered his eyes, "Son...he already has his own heart."

Hearing this, Mrs. Han was stunned, "Does your heart belong?"

Her eldest son, like his father, has no talent for reading.

The Han family is not a family that forces their children to take the imperial examination to become an official. The old man did not force Master Han to enter the imperial examination. It was because Master Han himself was unwilling to pass the exam.

As for Han Bowen, he showed his talent in Danqing early on, and the old man also supported Han Bowen to specialize in Danqing.

As for the imperial examination, just follow the fate.

Since she was a child, the eldest son has been obsessed with Danqing, even if she goes out, she mostly goes to Tanzhe Temple to paint.

Never heard him mention that he has a sweetheart.

"You have someone you like? When did it happen? Why haven't you heard about it?" Mrs. Han responded and asked.

Before Han Bowen could speak, Master Han said, "How can these children tell you what is on their minds?"

Mrs. Han choked, and realized that she had said something stupid.

"Bo'er, which girl do you like?"

Han Bowen pursed his lips, "The daughter of Mr. Song, the head of the Imperial Academy."

The current Song Xian is not yet the Minister of the Ministry of Officials.

The head of the Hanlin Academy is a bachelor, and the official residence is from the second grade.

In the previous life, Han Bowen's grandfather had passed away, and his father was just a fourth-rank Guozijian Jijiu.

And Song Yuting's father, Song Xian, has been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Officials. With such a disparity in family status, if Han Bowen wants to marry Song Yuting, there is only hope for Song Yuting after being bullied by the Tan family.

However, Han Bowen didn't want Song Yuting to suffer such humiliation again.

His grandfather hadn't had a good life for a few years. Han Bowen had no intention of love in his previous life. His mother wanted to make an engagement for him, but he refused.

Later, meeting Song Yuting was also unexpected.

But now, everything can change.

When she heard that it was a girl from Mr. Song's family, Mrs. Han was relieved.

Fortunately, it's not some prostitute, or some frivolous girl.

Song Yuting, she has seen it before.

Although Master Han's current official position is not high, her father-in-law is the Minister of Rites.Therefore, even if she is just the wife of a doctor from the Ministry of Industry, no one looks down on her.

The Song family is a scholarly family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the officials in the family can be traced back to the previous dynasty.

The foundation is not generally deep.

If it weren't for the father-in-law and the official residence of Yipin Shangshu, Mrs. Han would not dare to miss his girl.

"That girl from the Song family is indeed a good girl, but..." Mrs. Han frowned slightly, "But her family loves her daughter very much, if Miss Song doesn't nod, even if I come to propose marriage, I'm afraid I won't be able to get the marriage. "

Of course Han Bowen knew this.

In the previous life, the marriage between Song Yuting and Mr. Tan's family would be finalized. It was also a coincidence that Mr. Tan's family helped Song Yuting out of the siege, which deepened Song Yuting's impression, otherwise the marriage would not be finalized.

If he remembers correctly, it should be on the Ghost Festival this year.

He planned to ruin the meeting between Song Yuting and Mr. Tan's family.

This is a bad fate, why start?

The son of the Tan family may not be happy with Song Yuting, and the Tan family is not a good deal.

The person who put a sack on him and broke his hands back then was definitely found by the Tan family.

With this severed hand revenge, Han Bowen can be ruthless to see Mr. Tan's family looking for death by himself, and he won't remind him to bring more people when he rushes for the exam.

"Mother only needs to propose marriage for me. As for when to propose marriage, I'm not in a hurry now." Han Bowen said.

Mrs. Han glanced at him, "What do you want to do?"

"What do I want to do?" Han Bowen was taken aback for a moment, and the corner of his mouth twitched when he met Mrs. Han's gaze, "Mother, what are you thinking?"

Did he do that?

"It's good that you don't mess around, we can't afford to offend the Song family."

Han Bowen: He turned his head to look out of the car window and stopped talking.

Soon, the carriage stopped in front of the restaurant on He Street. The private room was booked early in the morning. After getting off the carriage, the family went directly to the third floor.

When they went out, everyone in the Han family had a meal in the restaurant before they had eaten.

After dinner, it was completely dark.

Han Bowen got up and said he wanted to go for a walk.

He is not a three-year-old child, Master Han and Mrs. Han have nothing to worry about, and nodded in agreement.

It was Han Xiuwen who wanted to go out with his brother, but Madam Han stopped him.

Han Bowen coaxed his younger brother, "Brother will be back soon."

Han Xiuwen could only watch his brother go out alone, but he didn't cry. Although he was a little unhappy, as a child, he quickly put the unpleasant things behind him.

Han Bowen went downstairs alone, bought a lamp, lit it and put it in the river.

Watching the river lantern drifting away, a person stood by the river in a daze.

"Aunt Tang, what are you looking at?"

A child's voice came from his ear, Han Bowen was startled, and when he turned his head, he saw two people standing under a tree not far away.

One is tall and the other is short, and there is not much difference in stature.

The taller one was a girl, wearing a bright red dress and a white cloak, standing pretty under the tree.Beside him was a six or seven-year-old child with a faint smile on his face, looking like a little adult.

The girl was only in her prime, and there were red lanterns hanging everywhere along the river and street, and red lanterns hung on the trees, and her cheeks were flushed under the lanterns.

"Xian'er—" the girl glared at the young boy next to her in embarrassment, then looked at Han Bowen and saluted, "I'm sorry."

Han Bowen looked at her blankly.

This was completely different from what he had imagined meeting again.

He was not at all prepared.

This girl is - Song Yuting.
