Chapter 385: The first mention and congratulations (3)
Chen Quan was talking about the truth. Chen Ying thought about it and let go of her heart.
Others don’t know the details of the Shangshu Mansion, but the two Chen Ying brothers knew it. They knew that there was no one who could come forward to give gifts to the festival. The two families are relatives, so it is appropriate to help here. Both brothers are Nothing else thought about.
Grandma Ying is a woman who is very careful when she hears this, and she hesitates a little, but she just doesn't know how to say anything in front of her.
When the night was quiet and the couple was alone, Grandma Ying said with concern: "The second house of Shangshu Mansion is now facing the situation of dying his heirs. Is it appropriate for the third uncle to go there like this? Uncle San and Uncle Rui have a good relationship, and there The uncle and the uncle are also close to the third uncle. What if they have adopted the idea of adoption? If you really want to ask it, I am afraid it is the master and the wife will make things difficult for her..."
Chen Ying frowned when he heard this. Although he was close to the second house, he had never thought about it.
The heir was difficult. If Shen Rui had not been the heir or the fourth-person Yuandi Master, would he have to study like this? If Chen Jue had not succeeded, he would have stayed away from his parents and relatives, and had no one to care about the cold and cold, he would not have been sent to the cold and cold. life.
Perhaps other tribesmen would rather be the heirs of the Shangshu Mansion, but the fifth house was never rare. This was the case three years ago and now.
Thinking of this, Chen Ying let go and said, "Even if the second wife mentions the matter of the heir again, you have to be willing. As early as three years ago, the fifth wife's attitude was clear. Uncle Cang and uncle are both generous and wise. , I won't make things difficult for anyone to speak."
Grandma Ying patted her chest and said with relief: "It's good that I'm really scared... I won't say anything else, just Brother Jue, who was like a meat ball when he was a child, looked honest and honest. How can I see the blessings of my childhood in my third year? Who doesn’t know that the great master of Zong Fang loved this young grandson the most during his lifetime? Even the clan leader was famous for his young son. When Jue Geer was in Bensheng’s house, he was afraid that he would be I haven't been beaten with a single finger, but I have to kneel down in the cold winter. If it weren't for the cold wind last year, how could the good kid have ruined the foundation?"
Although Grandma Ying is talking about the truth, it can be seen that she is hiding the rebuke of the elders of the second house, Chen Ying still said, "After all, it's the second wife over there... Uncle Cang is busy with official business, and his uncle has been doing it for the past two years. Rehabilitation, the second wife, the elder mother, was in Beijing. Uncle Cang and uncle did not go beyond the second wife to discipline Brother Jue…”
"What the uncle said is that it is not easy to think about it. The whole family is young, with only one strong man in the third tribe, but he is weak. Although Brother Rui is not yet a clan, he has been half of the work in the past few years. Go, I'm not as lively as I'm young, and it feels so heartbreaking to see..." Grandma Ying sighed, "I wonder who will be adopted by the uncle of the second tribe? I would be better if I were an older one, Can share some of it for Rui Ge'er."
Chen Ying shook her head and said, "It's probably not possible. If you really choose an older person, you will become a cousin. Rui Ge'er is the eldest son and will support Yiqingtang in the future. It is not cheap to press multiple cousins on her head. Three years ago, the little second wife chose Brother Jue. In addition to being the legitimate grandson of the clan, he is closest to the second wife's bloodline, it is probably because he is younger than Brother Rui..."
He had nothing to say all night, and from the next day, Chen Quan went to the Shangshu Mansion.
In addition to sending New Year gifts, there are also some banquets that need social engagements. Chen Quan often comes back with a little drunk, so Xu asked someone to clean up a living yard to give Chen Quan a place to sit and lie down to catch up with bad weather. , let him stay here.
Although Chen Quan is the youngest son, because his two brothers grew up early, he has been with Mrs. Guo since he was a child. He has helped his parents with housework since he was in his teens. Although he has been idle for a few years, his relationships and principles are the same. Yes, after going out, he was full of colors. He was fame and fortune. Although he was not a big deal in the capital, he had a brother who was an official from the Eastern Palace and a brother from the Hanlin area. His future was promising, but he didn't care about the Shangshu Mansion. Others also value the signs behind them.
After a while, for the nephew of the Shen family who represented the Shangshu Mansion this year, whether it was relatives and friends, or the relationship between the officialdom, there was only praise for Shen Cang and Xu.
The Shangshu Mansion was so angry that although there was only one more Chen Quan, he was very lively and more angry than Shen Rui.
Even Chen Cang, who has never been very close to the various houses in Songjiang, also likes Chen Quan's nephew. He did not praise him in person, but said to his wife privately: "Chen Quan is good, he is calm in his work and has a smooth personality, but he is a good officialdom. Miaozi. As long as you keep up with your homework and get through the exam, you will not be able to make a mistake in your future." Speaking of this, she sighed: "Although Chen Hong, a fifth house, has a bad health and has accomplished nothing, she has raised several good sons. Chen Ying is good, Chen Quan is not bad either.”
Seeing that the five houses are now full of children and grandchildren, but the family has withered, Xu was silent for a while and said, "This is the benefit of marrying a virtuous wife. The master only said that it was the blessing of Master Hong, but he did not see Guo. After working hard, being a director, raising children, everything is good. If you really want to talk about it, there is no better time to add a child to the Shen family. I am really sorry to the master..."
Chen Cang shook his head and said, "What's wrong with Mrs. Guan? My family hadn't taken concubines back then, so who had any movement in his stomach? The great man also mentioned it first. When I landed, his body had not been properly adjusted, so I also said. I am not as good as my younger brothers and sisters. Compared with the two sisters who died young, I am already grateful to be able to live safely until Jiazi... If my wife is uneasy because of her offspring, wouldn't she feel more guilty for being a husband? If my wife comes to someone else The family, I can't say that my children would be around my knees and play with my grandchildren."
Seeing her husband sad, Xu hurriedly said, "It's all my fault. I've always thought about it so much these days, which makes the master feel uncomfortable. With Brother Rui here, how can I envy others? I have the blessings of my master and me. …”
The only third master couldn't help but feel ashamed while thanking Chen Quan.
Only by raising a child did you realize that your parents are very kind. Because brothers are very different from each other, they were raised by their brothers and sisters-in-law since childhood. In the heart of the third master, the elder brother, Mrs. Zhang, is no different from her parents. She used to care for her, but although she was grateful to her, she was still I also suffered calmly; now I feel anxious because I cannot repay it.
"Brother, my sister-in-law really raised me in vain. I can't help with the family affairs at all. I will still have to follow the trouble when something happens." The third master was full of guilt.
The third wife hugged her son and advised, "What's the rush? The days are still long in the future. We are so filial to our elder brother, and our sister-in-law is... We can't be filial to us, and the fourth brother is here. Will he dare not respect our uncle in the future? mother?"
The third master stared at his son and said, "He dares? If he has any disrespect, I will discount his legs."
Although he was vicious, he always loved his son, and the fourth brother was not afraid of him. He just thought it was because he was doing a new game. He twisted his body and came out of his arms. He threw himself into the third master's lap, and his breasts were so singing.
He said, "Dad, Dad, legs, these are legs..." As he spoke, the corners of his mouth were shiny, and water was exposed.
The third master was so amused and laughed, and raised his son: "This is your father's thigh, not chicken legs, how can he show such greed?"
"Hehe" the fourth brother smiled and showed his little milf.
The third wife was by her side, looking at her husband and son, her heart was soft and could turn into water. But she was worried in her eyes, but she was not worried about her son like the third master, but about her husband.
.
In the past two months, although the third master has been recuperating, he has not given up his studies. Even if he can't go out, he sent someone to take the prepared Shiwen outside and ask a few old Hanlins to correct him.
The third master did not extinguish his passion for fame and fortune.
While the third wife was worried, she could only take care of her husband's daily life more carefully. She was not a greedy person, otherwise she would not have married into the Shen family and served her husband with peace of mind for more than ten years. Although she wanted to dissuade her, she couldn't bear it, and it was not for the sake of
My son, thinking about cuteness and descendants, but because her husband has added a lot of fresh work in the past two years, he no longer lives like a stagnant pool of water like before.
Before the New Year, the yamen began to hold a pen, and the government school officially took the annual leave.
When there were people's relationships, Shen Quan was led by Shen Cang and also went to and from several high-ranking families.
Seeing that Shen Quan was handsome and had a decent manner, several families took a fancy to Shen Quan and asked about being a son-in-law and grandson-in-law. It was a pity to hear that he had already made a marriage contract.
Xu thought that there would be social engagements that could not be avoided in the first month of the New Year. When Shen Ying and his wife came to give New Year gifts, they mentioned the matter after the New Year. Although there was no one to force anyone to leave Shen Quan here for the New Year,
But I also want Shen Quannian to help him.
He had already helped half of the time before, and there was no reason to leave halfway, so Shen Ying naturally agreed.
Shen Quan had nothing else to say. Except for the day when he returned home on New Year's Eve, he arrived at the Shangshu Mansion early in the first day of the lunar month, sometimes accompanied Shen Cang, and sometimes brought his manager to the banquet. Before and after the New Year, it was
I received a lot of gifts, and there were a few boxes.
After the fifteenth and the New Year was over, Shen Quan wrote a speech with Shen Cang and Xu.
Shen Cang kept this favor in his heart, and only encouraged him a few words, but did not say much; Xu had prepared two boxes of thank-you gifts, and the boxes of gifts that Shen Quan had collected before.
They also sorted out and asked him to take it back.
Shen Quan was not willing to accept it, so he waved his hand and said, "Although the elders give it, it's so much? If my aunt feels sorry for her nephew, she will give her one or two items to her. I'll leave these for Brother Rui.
With the fourth brother…”
Xu said: "Those gifts are all from others and you, so you will take them away. Can we, as elders, still be jealous? The remaining two boxes of items are not for you...
My parents are about to come back from Songjiang and have to formally celebrate the ceremony with their in-laws. These old objects look quite decent and are to give you a betrothal gift for your face..."
Shen Quan's face turned slightly red, and he felt that it was not right to accept it, nor did he not accept it, and he murmured that he could not speak.
Seeing this, Xu smiled and said to Chen Cang with a smile: "Look, no matter how generous the child is, he is shy when he mentions marriage..."
Shen Rui calculated the days in his mind and said, "If Uncle Hong and Aunt Hong set out in February, he would be able to arrive in the capital in April..."
Chapter completed!
