Chapter three hundred and eighty-four first mention and congratulations (2)
Yu Jie'er smiled and said, "I'm just a name, and I'm all suffering from several mothers. In the final analysis, it's better for the rules my mother set before. Now I'm Xiao Sui Cao's Rules."
Yu Jie'er is the only daughter of a younger generation. Because she is a illegitimate child, she has developed a silent and shy personality. After two years, she has changed a lot. Now she has spoken a lot more calmly, and there is a vague Xu family.
She is so elegant and elegant. She was worried about whether she could take the responsibility of her eldest daughter-in-law because of her legitimate identity, but now she doesn't.
Shen Rui also saw that Sister Yu grew up, and when she saw her gracefulness, she also felt like "My family has a first-time girl growing up", and said, "I used to be young, but I didn't expect that I would become an adult in the blink of an eye...
”
Xu also said: "Yes, Sister Yu will be in the hairpin next year. If Brother Chi of Mao's family hadn't been old enough, I really wanted to keep your sister for two more years..."
No matter how generous the girl was, she blushed when she heard this. Sister Yu lowered her head and pulled Xu's sleeve and said, "My daughter wants to stay at home with her mother."
"Where can't marry a daughter when she is old? Although there is a difference between older and younger, I should have waited for your second sister-in-law to come in first, but your second sister-in-law is young, so you must go out first. But don't worry, Brother Chi stays in Nanjing
The provincial examination will always be able to return to Beijing by the end of next year, and at the earliest it will be scheduled for the end of next year, and there will be one more time..." Xu clapped Yu Jie'er's hand and felt a little reluctant to say anything.
Sister Yu was so embarrassed that she couldn't sit still. She blushed and stood up and said, "Who is anxious? My mother talks to her second brother, and my daughter goes to see the gift list again..." After that, she went out shyly.
Xu glanced at Shen Rui's plain clothes and sighed: "I'm old too, I actually remember this...
Shen Rui looked at Xu's gray temples and said, "It would be a good idea if Sister Tian was a few years older..."
Xu brought a few melancholy: "It's this reason. I have lived for most of my life. I have always been a kind of person who is generous and not afraid of things. Now I am old and really afraid... Now I just hope that you can start a family and start a business as soon as possible and have a family break up.
Ye, support the portal..."
"Where is the family, Sister Tian is there at the age of age, and her son is powerless; if you start a career, you will try your best next year," said Shen Rui.
After hearing this, Xu said, "It is a good thing for you to be ambitious, but remember to act within your ability. If you lose your health by blindly showing off your strength, it is not a filial piety. In my eyes, even if you end up with a few subjects,
It's better than you to lose your soul and earn fame."
Shen Rui stood up and said, "Don't worry, mother, my son knows the importance of the matter, and will definitely cherish himself."
Because of Shen Jue's sorrow, the Shen family sighed that life and death were impermanent. It was more than Shen Rui who was like a frightened bird?
The third master fell ill, half because he was sad for his nephew, and half because he was scared by himself, and he was worried about his fourth brother. For his parents, it is not easy for them to be ill. He was worried about that possibility. The third master got stuck and waited until later
After thinking it through, I gradually got better.
Seeing Xu's reaction in front of me, I was obviously scared.
Shen Rui could understand Xu's worries. The people of Shangshu Mansion were too thin. Before, Shen Jue was there, and the two brothers saw that they were Ding, and they were still better as their bloodline was about to reproduce. Now he is the older one, his fiancée, is left.
I am young and it will take several years to get married. My young fourth brother is only three years old. Before I can stand still, how can the elders worry?
When Yu Jie'er mentioned that the clan relative Chen Quan thought about the new heir of the second house, Shen Rui naturally thought of it, but she was not thinking about Chen Quan, but the clan brothers Shen Ling and Chen Lin who were following Shen Zhou.
Chen Lin has not yet got married, and Shen Ling not only got married, but even her son has landed. In the second master’s letters to his family in the past two years, Shen Ling’s name appears, I think he attaches great importance to it.
If the second master chooses his heir, he will choose Shen Ling directly, and even have his own daughter-in-law and grandson, it will be cheap.
Just thinking about it, the elders didn't mention it, and Shen Rui wouldn't be too polite. After saying a few more homely conversations with Xu, he went back to Jiuruju.
The next day, there was no class in the afternoon. Shen Rui went directly to Chunshan Academy after class at noon.
After Chen Quan returned to Beijing, he went to Chunshan Academy to study. He is now a student and is in the same class as Yang Shen. Because of Shen Rui, the two are considered in-laws, but they are closer than other classmates, although they are worse. He was several years old, but Yang Shen was older than his peers, so he could talk about it together with Chen Quan.
It happened to be lunch time here at Chunshan Academy, and the two were also on class break. When they heard that Shen Rui was coming, Chen Quan called Yang Shen out together.
After looking at Shen Rui up and down a few times, Yang Shen said, "But I've recovered. I saw you lacked some energy before, but now I'm fine."
Shen Rui smiled bitterly and said, "The dead are gone, but the living are going to continue to live. There is less than a year left to go to the provincial examination. What else can I do besides rising up?"
Yang Shen also once lost his mother and knew that his relatives were separated from each other, and sighed: "It's better to put your mind on preparing for the exam like this..."
Although Chen Quan had taken his anger to Shen Rui before, he had reacted afterwards, knowing that Shen Rui's sadness would not be inferior to him. The rift in his heart dissipated, and he cared about Shen Rui more than before.
Shen Rui took the second-class exam last month, and Chen Quan knew it, so he said, "Even if you care about your grades, don't be too anxious. It's normal to follow one thing in the past six months, and it's a bit delayed in your homework. "He complained again: "The professor of the prefecture is too strict. After all, you have taken a few months off before, and it is already good that you can keep up with the progress."
Shen Rui said: "Last month, I was confused and didn't know what I read in the book. The articles I made were like watered pork. Not to mention professors, I couldn't read them even when I read them myself. If I really want to talk about them, I will only drop to two. By the way, the professor has already shown mercy."
Yang Shen shook his head and said, "I really don't understand you. Why don't you come back to the academy? I have to stay in the academy? My classmates in the academy are nominated in the official school, and I don't have to study at one or two when I come back."
Shen Rui smiled and said, "Each one has its own advantages. I am impatient with restraint here and being more comfortable there.
Chen Quan looked at Shen Rui wearing a Confucian shirt and the book boy who followed him was carrying a bookcase, and asked, "Is this a direct visit to the school? It was during the meal. When we saw that it was cold, we went to the back street to eat mutton soup... …”
Chunshan Academy is not far from the Imperial College. Half of the street behind it is filled with various study shops, and there are several teahouses and restaurants. One of them has a very well-known mutton soup.
This cold weather is not the place where you talk outside, and Shen Rui has no objection to Chen Quan's proposal. Yang Shen naturally followed him, and the three of them went to the back street.
After entering the restaurant, Chen Quan ordered a private room, ordered a pot of hot tea, and ordered a few plates of desserts with the mutton soup.
After the waiter delivered the tea, he retreated.
Chen Quan poured tea for the three of them and said, "Brother Rui came here to find me, but what's wrong?"
Shen Rui said his future intentions.
Chen Quan heard it and said without hesitation: "Since it was my aunt's order, I will naturally have nothing to say. I will go to ask for leave in the afternoon and I will go there tomorrow but you know me. I'm fine when I was in Songjiang, and I will go out to communicate with people and in Beijing. In recent years, I have only been reading.'Ten miles of different styles, hundreds of miles of customs, and the capital is different from Songjiang. Rui Ge'er who needs guidance still needs to give me some advice, so I can show my timidity and be shameless. It would be bad if someone laughed at Shangshu Mansion."
Shen Rui nodded and said, "I just don't have a good time to come forward, so I will naturally follow my third brother, saying everything. But Is it cheap to ask for leave from third brother? Will there be any inconvenience?"
"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Quan waved his hand: "Now in the year, there are many people asking for leave in the academy, so I'm not alone."
Seeing Shen Rui and the two brothers of the Chen clan were close, Yang Shen envied and said, "If outsiders look at it, you don't look like brothers of the clan, but like brothers of the same family..."
Chen Quan raised his eyebrows and said, "What do you envy us? It's like you don't have brothers..."
Yang Shen smiled and said, "Among my uncles and brothers, I really don't have brothers of the same age. Although I have a few cousins, they are all in their hometown in Sichuan and are young..."
After Chen Quan finished speaking, he thought that the Yang family was different from his own, and he regretted it. Seeing that Yang Shen only mentioned his cousin but not his cousin, he tactfully said: "Your family is Rui Geer Yue'er's family, and the gift list is on the You must have your family. When I go there, you will be welcomed to accompany the guests..."
Yang Shen nodded and said, "That's natural, but I haven't planned to take a leave these few days. You have to choose the day after the college holiday. I got two liang of birds a few days ago, which is the best. When you come here, I will use it. That treats you.”
The children of Shuxiang love tea more, Chen Quan was no exception, and smiled and said, "The relationship is good, I am looking forward to it..."
Yang Shen remembered Shen Ruilai next to him and said, "At that time, I also distributed a small bag for Hengyun to leave a copy."
Shen Rui also loves tea and said, "Then I thank my elder brother first..."
After saying a few more words, the waiter started serving the dishes.
Because Chen Quan and Yang Shen had class for two afternoons, the three of them stopped talking and drank the hot mutton soup.
After lunch, Shen Rui left, Chen Quan and Yang Shen returned to the academy.
Chunshan Academy will start its annual holiday in a few days, so Chen Quan directly asked for the annual holiday from tomorrow. As he said, although the academy is usually strict in governing students, the rules are dead and people live. Now There are many students who are taking leave early to go home as the New Year holiday, so the teacher happily approves the leave.
By the time he returned home after class in the evening, Chen Ying had already returned from the yamen, and Chen Quan mentioned this matter to his brother and sister-in-law.
Chen Ying is generous and kind-hearted, and is close to the Shangshu Mansion. He has no objection. He has many instructions: "Although my uncle values you, the communication over there is not only between relatives and old friends, but also between Uncle Cang and his relationship in the officialdom. You should not be self-dedicated, ask your elders more or ask Rui Ge'er more."
The two brothers are about ten years apart, and their parents are not in front of them. Chen Ying is afraid that his younger brother will help him make mistakes. Although the elders of the second house are not narrow-minded, even if Chen Quanzhen is inappropriate, it will not affect the relationship between the two families. Chen Ying was also afraid that his younger brother would not help him, so he would not be able to do anything, so he even caused trouble with the second wife.
Chen Quan nodded and said, "Don't worry, brother. Although I went over to help, I just showed my face when I was giving the festival gift in the name of my nephew. My aunt would arrange it to follow me, so I need to worry about anything.
