Chapter 487 Marrying a Wife is Not a Virtuous Disaster for Three Generations
This day, Shen Mingjiao woke up early, planning to pick up Shen Mingshu's mother and daughter.
As the crown prince was executed and the treason case ca to an end, Feng Lisheng was finally free. You don't have to stay away from ho for several days,
After breakfast, Shen Mingjiao took Feng Lisheng to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city gate. This is the only way to go to and from the capital. The scene of parting and seeing off is staged almost all the ti.
Estimating that the carriage Shen Mingshu was riding in would arrive in so ti, Feng Lisheng brought Shen Mingjiao to a tea shed.
Brought the waiter to serve so tea and snacks, but Shen Mingjiao couldn't drink tea because she was pregnant, so she turned the round fan and looked around. Suddenly, she poked Feng Lisheng's arm:
"Hey! Isn't that the second prince?"
Feng Lisheng followed her gaze, and saw a young man in a sky-blue gown standing at the intersection of the official road. It was Xu Chunsheng.
Xu Chunsheng is still not quite used to the life of the royal family, and he only brought a guard and a little **** with him when he went out. Even so, it was because of his uncommon appearance. It caused many people to stop frequently, especially the girls who have not left the cabinet.
Shen Mingjiao held the round fan to her chin and watched with gusto. In less than half an hour, there were no less than twenty girls passing by in front of Xu Chunsheng
Five handkerchiefs and six sachets were thrown at the feet, and one directly threw a money bag.
Xu Chunsheng is obviously the first ti to encounter this kind of battle. He is not good at communication, and his ears are red for a while, and he is obviously at a loss.
This move is not only not awkward, but with his face, there is a different kind of cuteness.
I only suffered from the little eunuchs and guards who followed , helping to return the handkerchief sachets and accepting the disappointed eyes of the girls.
And that's not all! A girl directly threw a purse, which was at least dozens of taels larger by visual inspection.
The guard appointed picked up the money bag and walked to a carriage. The girl sitting in the carriage was obviously disappointed when the money bag was returned.
Let the servant girl take over the gap in the purse, and casually glance at the guard. Seeing that the other party's facial features are upright and tough, his figure is tall and straight, and his eyes are clear, his eyes light up:
"Can the young master get married?"
This girl's na is Jiang Wanling, she is the daughter of the Jiang family of the imperial rchant, and she is discussing marriage recently, but she doesn't like any of the n introduced by the matchmaker.
The guard was stunned: "...never."
Jiang Wanling's eyes beca brighter: "It's just right that I'm not married yet, so you can consider ." She was the youngest daughter in the family, and she followed her father all over the world since she was a child, so she couldn't help but speak more directly.
The guard took a step back in fright, and stamred, "Didn't you... cough... you care about my young master?"
Jiang Wanling nodded calmly: "Because your son is so good-looking! Girls will pay more attention to them when they see them, but as he is, he can only watch from a distance, and he needs to find a place with similar conditions for living."
The guard looked up in surprise, and couldn't help asking curiously, "Why did the girl lose money?"
Jiang Wanling: "Because I'm neither good at embroidering handkerchiefs nor good at sewing sachets. It seems that my only advantage is being rich!"
The maid on the side wanted to cover her face.
Until the carriage went far away, the guard stood there for a while, and then smiled smirkly, inexplicably thinking that the girl just looked pleasing to the eye, a girl from Huangshang Jiang's family. Coincidentally, the family status is also the sa, so I went back and asked my mother to inquire about it.
Shen Mingjiao who witnessed a perfect encounter in less than a quarter of an hour: "..." This reversal is very fascinating!
She tugged at Feng Lisheng's sleeves, tilted her head and rested her chin and stared at his face curiously: "By the way, you and the second prince are about the sa in appearance! I have never t a girl throwing a handkerchief in front of you." son."
Thinking about it carefully, it is true that there are almost no such things as a woman coming up to pretend to have a sprained ankle.
The main reason is that Feng Lisheng's aura is too strong, the first thing ordinary people notice is not his appearance.
Feng Lisheng glanced at her: "You are quite sorry!"
Shen Ming coquettishly said: "...how could it be? It's not like I'm just looking for sothing to do!"
That's right, with his temperant, if a girl throws a veil at his feet, he can step on it without changing his face.
While speaking, another carriage ca from the official road crossing. Xu Chunsheng, who was motionless and looking at the intersection in front of him, his eyes lit up, and then he quickened his pace towards the direction of the carriage.
Seeing this, the two stood up and walked out of the tea shed.
As the carriage stopped, Shen Mingshu tidied up her clothes, and pushed Nuo Bao who was drowsy in her arms: "Be good, Nuo Bao! We are here."
The little girl rubbed her eyes and yawned delicately: "Is Daddy here?"
Shen Mingshu straightened the little guy's sleepy hair, and smiled resolutely: "Of course, your father is outside."
As soon as the voice fell, there were familiar footsteps approaching, and the curtains of the car were lifted.
When Xu Chunsheng saw his wife and daughter, the confusion he had felt these days seed to have finally co to fruition, and he stretched out his hand to open the sedan door.
Hold Nuo Bao down with one hand, and help Shen Mingshu with the other.
Shen Mingshu held his arm generously, tilted her head and looked at his outfit curiously.
Xu Chunsheng felt a little uncomfortable when she saw her, "...Is there anything wrong?"
Shen Mingshu smiled: "No, Husband, you look good in this dress! But if you change it to white, it will definitely be more amazing!"
Xu Chunsheng's ears turned red, "...you're hungry, I'll take you to dinner!"
Nuobao raised his head when he heard that there was sothing to eat: "I want to eat candied haws."
At this ti, Shen Mingjiao and the two also ca over, she smiled and waved: "Eat candied haws, co, Auntie will take you to buy."
Seeing the person coming, Nuo Bao's eyes beca brighter, and he waved his little hand vigorously: "Auntie, there is also a handso uncle, you are also here to pick up Nuo Bao and mother!"
"Yes! Is Nuo Bao happy?"
Nuo Bao nodded heavily, tilted his head and asked curiously: "Happy, my mother said that there are many interesting things in the capital, and there are beautiful skirts. They are even more beautiful than the skirts of Da Ni in the village."
Dani is the richest girl in Xujia Village, because her aunt beca a concubine for the landlord's grandfather.
Shen Mingjiao scratched her little nose: "Of course, let's go! Go to aunt's house first, and then go to see grandparents."
…
The group of people returned to Su Wang's mansion in a carriage. The three servant girls knew that the little master was coming, so they prepared a lot of snacks in the kitchen in advance, and the toys that Shen Mingjiao bought last ti were also put to use in advance, and the little ones had fun playing.
Feng Lisheng led Xu Chunsheng to play chess in the front yard study, leaving the two sisters Shen Mingjiao to talk.
Shen Mingjiao took out the clothes that Xiu Niang had made in advance and let Shen Mingshu change into them. After all, she had to enter the palace later, so she had to dress decently.
The two sat in the courtyard watching a few maids playing with Nuo Bao.
Shen Mingshu looked at Shen Mingjiao's stomach, and smiled gratifiedly: "In two years, you and His Highness's children will be able to run around all over the place."
Seeing Nuo Bao's cheerful smile, Shen Mingjiao was also looking forward to it.
Seeing her like this, Shen Mingshu couldn't bear to puncture her fantasy,
It’s true that children look cute, but those who have actually given birth to children know that children are not only cute, but they are also crushing when you buy them.
While chatting, Shen Mingjiao took out a stack of ledgers:
"This is my mother's dowry. It has been bullied by the Li family for so many years. Although it has been discounted a lot, I got it back before I got married. I don't need these now. You take it all, just keep it as a mory." think."
The mother of the two was born in a small rchant in the south of the Yangtze River. Although there are not many land property shops, they are not bad under her managent.
Shen Mingshu suddenly returned to Beijing, and the Yongchang Hou's Mansion was not available, so there must be sothing close to her.
Shen Mingshu flipped through it seriously, and then divided the stack of papers into two, before Shen Mingjiao declined, she raised her hand and said:
"You also said that this is the mother's dowry, aren't you the mother's daughter?
Don't worry, I won't be hungry with these. "
Shen Mingjiao knew her sister's uncompromising nature, so she didn't insist on it anymore, and planned to help from other channels.
Shen Mingshu was silent for a while, and asked, "How is grandma's family?"
Shen Mingjiao poured her a glass of sour plum juice: "That's it! Since I broke up with them, I haven't paid much attention to them. But I heard from Erya that after Shen Mingyao was sent to the temple, he ca to Beijing with a foreigner. His dandy eloped, and it was rumored in Beijing for a while,
The Marquis of Yongchang was also in a commotion over this matter, each house complained to each other, and the unborn grandmother couldn't figure it out. As for the uncle Shen Ji'an, he doesn't have much real skills, he only knows how to make money everywhere. "
On the way to Beijing, Shen Mingjiao had already roughly told Shen Mingshu what had happened in these years.
Shen Mingshu sighed: "If father knew, what would he think?"
Sa as Shen Mingjiao, she also doesn't like her grandmother's family. When she was a child, because her mother was born low and beautiful, she was so angry with that old woman that she had to get up before dawn to set the rules. In order to prevent father and mother from having sex, keeping her mother by her side all night was not counted. On the wedding night, soone was even sent to eavesdrop outside the door of the new house.
If it wasn't for this, my father would not have left his job as a good official in the capital. He would have taken his family abroad, and he might not have died young.
Shen Mingjiao: "As long as anyone in this generation is able to pass a little bit, it's not that they can't help to support them, but the big brother, like Shen Ji'an, doesn't study hard, and knows how to make connections all day long, let alone other nephews. Even those who have ritorious deeds from their ancestors don’t know how to make progress.”
If this continues, the decline of the Shen family will happen sooner or later.
Shen Mingshu sighed: "So the old saying is true, marrying a wife is not a virtuous person, and it will be a disaster for three generations."
Yongchang Hou Mansion used to be a noble family that stood for hundreds of years, and it was also the number one in Beijing a few decades ago. The bad ones belong to the old Hou Ye's generation.
I heard that Old Hou Ye, that is, their grandfather, had a good childhood sweetheart when he was young, but later Xiao Qingi got sick and passed away. The old Hou Ye was so sad that he insisted on marrying a concubine from a small official family, because the concubine It looks sowhat similar to Xiao Qingi's.
The old man and his wife couldn't resist him and he had to agree. Although there was no absolute thing, there was so truth in the so-called right family. Cui's concubine was born, and her biological mother was just a maid. Staring at the things in her husband's room, she doted on the eldest son even more. Except for Shen Jiming, who was raised by the old man and his wife, the other children were all incapable of writing or martial arts.
When the old Marquis passed away, Shen Ji'an took over the title, and the Yongchang Hou Mansion declined a little bit, and now it can only be regarded as a third-rate family.
Shen Mingshu rested her elbow and sighed: "But since I'm back, according to the rules of etiquette, I have to go back no matter what." After all, counting by blood, she was her own grandmother,
Having said that, she pursed her lips. Still asked: "Is Your Majesty getting along well with Your Majesty?"
Shen Mingjiao knew what she was worried about? While sipping sour plum soup, he waved his hands: "It's okay, brother and sister-in-law are very open-minded, and don't care about your background. Besides, I can marry into the royal family, so what else is sister worried about?"
But speaking of it this way, it seems that their relationship is a bit ssy. Feng Lisheng and Xu Chunsheng are uncles and nephews. The nephew married his sister, and the uncle married his sister!
Then does she call Xu Chunsheng brother-in-law or nephew?
It is reasonable to say that marrying and obeying the husband, but if it is considered according to the man's side, then wouldn't she and her sister beco two generations?
Shen Mingjiao scratched her hair irritably, feeling that sothing was wrong.
Most importantly. At that ti, the officials of the Ministry of Rites must have sothing to say!
…
The two words "sisters" in this room are troubled, the study in the front yard,
Feng Lisheng and the two finished a ga of chess. Qingyun County is remote and the teaching conditions are backward. Xu Chunsheng has not had much serious contact with chess, but he has a photographic mory, so he can get used to it very quickly.
Feng Lisheng put down the last chess piece, and an attendant ca over to serve tea to the two of them. Feng Lisheng asked the well-behaved young man on the opposite side: "Are you still used to living in Beijing these few days?"
Xu Chunsheng took a sip of his tea, and replied honestly: "The imperial palace is too different from my previous living environnt, and I am still slowly getting used to it.
However, compared to Qingyun County, the Imperial Palace has a rich collection of books,"
Feng Lisheng was not surprised by his answer, and the two chatted for a while.
"Have you thought about what to do in the future?"
Xu Chunsheng clenched his teacup nervously: "If possible, I would like to take the imperial examination, then enter the Imperial Academy, and compile books for the Great Xia. Or go on a study tour."
When he said this, his clear eyes shone brightly, directly expressing his love for books.
"Well, you can ntion it to Brother Huang, he should not object."
When he said that, he only felt a pity in his heart, Xu Chunsheng is really smart, it's a pity that such a thing happened, and all these years were wasted for nothing.
Soon, Shen Mingjiao and sisters brought Nuo Bao over, and the group got into the carriage and entered the palace.
…
Entering the palace, the little **** who led the way said that the emperor and empress are all in Fengming Hall. When the queen learned that Shen Mingshu's mother and daughter were coming, her sick body recovered a little bit, and she even had so extra food in the morning.
Shen Mingshu was inexplicably nervous, Xu Chunsheng shook her hand lightly, and said in a gentle voice, "The queen mother is very easy to get along with."
Arriving at Fengming Palace, the maid who had been waiting outside hurried in to report.
By the ti a few people stepped into the gate of the palace, the queen was already greeted by the maid. Shen Mingshu imitated Shen Mingjiao's movents and saluted, and Nuobao followed suit.
A well-maintained but sowhat pale hand helped her up, and when she raised her head, she t the queen's gentle and concerned gaze: "You don't need to be polite, you are Chunsheng's daughter-in-law, and you will be a family from now on."
Seeing the sowhat familiar face and expression of her husband, Shen Mingshu relaxed slightly, and pushed Nuobao with a smile:
"This is the imperial grandmother. Call soone!"
Ever since he entered the palace, Nuo Bao felt that his eyes were not enough. He looked here and there, and felt that everything he saw was fresh.
Now I heard what my mother said. She hurriedly withdrew her gaze from looking around. Looking up her head, she sweetly called "Emperor Grandmother", not afraid of life at all.
Suddenly having such a well-behaved and beautiful little granddaughter, the queen's depressed mood has been mostly relieved. He gently took the little guy by the hand and entered the main hall, and asked the maid to put out all the delicious and fun things.
Shen Mingjiao looked at the queen's pale face, and couldn't help frowning.
She asked the newly promoted Grand Palace Maid, and learned that the Queen had been suffering from insomnia these days and was eating less and less, so she couldn't help but feel even more worried.
However, apart from taking dicine to treat this disease and trying to relax, there is no other way.
I hope that the arrival of Nuo Bao will make the queen co out as soon as possible!
Jing and Di liked Nuobao very much when they saw Nuobao, and took the little one to play in the Royal Garden for a while.
Shen Mingjiao really feels that this year's royal family is the warst and most beautiful in all dynasties.
so. Why can't n take it easy and insist on having three wives and four concubines! That's great, it saves a lot of trouble.
Soon it was ti to eat, and Feng Shuo, who was studying in Chongwen Hall, was called, and the family had a lively reunion dinner.
After dinner, Jing and Di signaled Feng Lisheng to go to Qinzheng Hall, as if there was sothing important to discuss.
I had sothing to do at ho yesterday, this chapter makes up for yesterday’s update**
Not surprisingly, it will end in a few days tomorrow.
Then I’ll write sothing extra, this book will be completely finished at the end of next month (`)**
