Four hundred and seventeenth chapter hundred years of life (six)
Seeing Yang Zhen and the Third Master standing at the gate, He Xueshi was not surprised. Although the Shen family aunt died prematurely, because Yang Zhen was originally a disciple of the Shen family, he and the Chen Cang brothers were not only in-laws, but also in and out together. The relationship between the Chen and Yang families is no less than that between the Chen and He families.
Mr. He turned over and dismounted, bowed and said, "Mr. Tingwei..."
"Scholar He..." Yang Zhen also bowed and returned the gift.
He Xueshu was full of questions and looked at the third master and said, "What's wrong with brother-in-law?"
The third master brought a little frustrated and said, "The imperial doctor came with the angel, and there was no bottom..."
Mr. He showed a look of surprise.
Yang Zhen sighed and said, "I have something to do in my yamen. Let's go back first. I'll talk to Mr. He another day...
He Xueshi said: "Sir Tingwei, go, I'll visit my brother-in-law..."
A servant had already brought the horses over, so Yang Zhen got on the horse and took his entourage away. Mr. He followed the third master into the gate of the Shen family.
Mr. He did not go to see Chen Cang, the inner house like Yang Zhen, but followed the third master to the front hall to ask about Chen Cang's condition in detail.
This matter has reached the forefront of the emperor. It will be known in a few days and there is nothing to hide. The third master told the truth.
He sighed after hearing this. Although he was under the sect of Liu Ge Lao, people in the capital were not like Liu Ge Lao, and they were all southern officials. They were not core figures, and they had no in-laws to connect with them. In recent years, they were truly The one who took good care of him was Chen Cang, the brother-in-law. Because of this, even though his political positions were different, the He Chen family did not become alienated.
Now, Chen Cang is about to fall. It is the time for Mr. He to seek promotion, and he can't help but feel worried.
But Mr. He did not rely on the Shen family like Yang Zhen, and did not mean to "ask" Chen Cang, and said, "Since my brother-in-law has gone back to rest, I will not bother each other for the time being... Let my son bring his little dog another day Come here to pay tribute”
Seeing that Mr. He was really worried about Chen Cang, he remembered what Chen Li mentioned just now, and said, "Since brother-in-law He is here, he will eat a cup of tea before leaving... Otherwise, I will invite my sister-in-law to come out. say?"
Mr. He thought about it and was here to visit him, even if he was not willing to come to Chen Cang for a big fan, he should meet Xu. He nodded and said, "If it's cheap, I'll have to worry about Zeping..."
The third master was speechless and immediately ordered the servant to go to the inner courtyard to send a message to Xu.
Seeing that there was no one else in the living room, Mr. He said, "I heard that Mr. Chen had just filed a leave, why didn't he see him?"
"I've just arrived, and now I've gone to Ruige's yard with Chen Ying." said the third master.
"Hengyun didn't end today?" Mr. He was surprised.
The third master said with a feeling: "If Brother Rui hadn't found something wrong with his elder brother, he would have abandoned the exam and went to the yamen to pick up people today. The elder brother would have to stand up and refused to go home to recuperate..."
He Xueshu is also a parent, and he can understand Chen Cang's painstaking efforts and only said: "The father is kind and the son is filial, but this is the case."
After a cup of tea, Xu and Chen Cang came together.
Mr. He and the third master stood up quickly.
Chen Cang shook his head and said, "It's not a big deal, but it alarmed everyone..."
He Xueshi said: "After hearing the news, I couldn't hold back, so I rushed over and became an uninvited guest.
Chen Cang laughed and said, "You and my brother-in-law have been together for half a lifetime. Do you have to submit a post today before you can meet?"
Although Chen Cang's face looked ugly, his spirit was fine. He Xueshu concealed his worries and said lightly: "This should be the way to be a guest. He has nothing to do with only one mouth, but it looks like It's here to fight the autumn wind..."
With Chen Cang here, Mr. He tactfully did not mention Chen Cang's illness.
Xu looked at Mr. He and was grateful, but the third master felt more and more uneasy. Seeing Mr. He dealing with it now, he didn't know that the Shen family was fighting with him for the sacrificial priest of Nanjing Imperial College. If he knew about this, he would still be so worried. Is there no grudge? Is this big brother too unkind? Even if there are differences between close and close relationships, the He family is still a close relative.
After a while, the guest and the host greeted each other, He Xueshi said goodbye. It was still the third master who sent it out, and Xu accompanied Chen Cang back to the inner house.
Turning the screen wall, He Xueshen stopped the smile on his face and stopped and said to the third master: "Which imperial physician is here today? Do you want to ask someone to ask the hospital to come for a medical treatment?"
Now the Imperial Hospital Hospital's surname is Bai, and he is a master of Xinglin in the famous capital. However, outsiders only heard of this Imperial Hospital's name, but it is difficult to see him. Although the Imperial Hospital's rank is not high, he has always been responsible for the emperor. The post-peaceful pulse is rarely treated outside the patient.
When the third master heard this, his eyes lit up and he said with some excitement: "The one who came just now was an imperial physician named Wei. Is this... cheap?"
He Xueshi nodded and said, "Although I want to ask for favors, I can try it out... Brother Quan's daughter-in-law's wife's family happened to have a relative with Bai Yuanzhang's family..."
The third master bowed and said, "In this way, let Brother He ask for trouble..."
Mr. He hurriedly reached out and helped him, "Get up quickly, what's this? I can still get the best of this effort for decades of friendship between you and me..."
The third master became more and more uneasy, his expression became complicated, as if he was ashamed and grateful.
Seeing this, Master He couldn't help but wonder, but he couldn't think of the reason...
Jiuruju, study room.
Looking at the upper left corner of the book case with a stack of large characters half a foot high, Chen Li glanced at Shen Rui's dark circles and said, "Hengyun has always been as moving as a mountain, and is he feeling confused today?"
Shen Rui nodded and said calmly: "It's really caught off guard. Although I know that the master is in poor health, I never thought it would be this year... After all, I was careless, otherwise I would have discovered the symptoms early and served the disease as soon as possible...
Chen Ying was beside him and sighed.
Things in the world are unpredictable, and it cannot be said that Shen Rui is wrong. In the year of the provincial examination, no scholar was "turning his ears to the outside world and focusing on reading only the books of sages". Although Shen Rui has a weak foundation, he is diligent and has aura in his study. If there were no such accidents in this subject this year, it would have been arguably listed on the list.
Seeing Shen Rui blame himself, Chen Li explained: "Birth, old age, sickness and death are unpredictable things... Instead of regretting the carelessness in front of you, why not think about how to fulfill your duty as a Son of Man, and fulfill your filial piety in these days so that your uncle can do his best. Relax for peace of mind…”
Shen Rui fell into deep thought.
How to be a son of man is really a proposition for Shen Rui.
The father-son relationship in the previous life is not the same as the father-son relationship now. Shen Rui wants to do something for Chen Cang, but what does Chen Cang need most now?
For a moment, Shen Rui was a little unsure.
Chen Ying has always been careful and mentioned Shen Rui: "What Uncle Cang cannot let go of the most is Rui Geer's future course, otherwise he would not have dragged his illness until today. Rui Geer's homework is the brother of the six clans and Wang Bo'an. Mr. Yang and his friends taught that it is a matter of time to learn from the strengths of many families. There is nothing to worry about. The one who can’t let go of it is Cang, Cang’s uncle and Cang’s uncle and the youngest uncle have a hair and a treacherous body. Forty years, the couple has a deep love. And the other side of Uncle Run San, who is sick and weak, has always been dependent on the eldest wife, and has been blessed by Uncle Cang...
These three things are indeed what Chen Cang is most worried about.
Shen Rui's homework here, even if he missed this subject, he would not slacken in the future; as for the third master, two large villages, four shops and a house, only the annual rent is collected and the three family of three is enough. Keep a rich life. However, there are couples on the Xu family...
Nowadays, the one who feels most uncomfortable in this family is Chen Cang himself, the Xu family...
Chen Li sighed, "The people here are still too thin. If Brother Rui got married and had children early and his aunt would enjoy her grandchildren, her life would be better in the future..."
When Shen Rui heard this, he felt a little moved and said, "Although I am not married, I am already engaged... Can I discuss with the Yang family and let Yang marry this year... She lost her mother when she was young and her stepmother is young again , It is just the teachings of few people; if my mother can be accompanied by one more person in the future, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds?”
"Are you talking to children? Do you think the daughter of the Yang family is a country lady who can marry a wealthy family? Even the joyful thoughts... Yang family's scholarly family, Yang is the eldest daughter of the Grand Secretary Yang, Yang How could the Grand Secretary agree to let her come in and enter the door?" Chen Li shook his head.
Chen Ying also shook her head and said, "It's really inappropriate. If Yang is a few years older, it's understandable to want to marry in advance for the sake of the rest. But Yang is still a few years away from her and her hairpin, so that's not it. Just to celebrate joy, I have to bear the name of a child bride..."
Although the love of the world prefers boys over girls, the young ladies in the family are also precious. Families who love their daughters will not be willing to marry their daughters early. Even if they do not delay the flowering period, it is common to leave it until they are in the hairpin before getting married.
Both brothers opposed it, and Shen Rui knew that this was a bit absurd, but he did not give up. While he was worried about Chen Cang, he was also worried about Xu.
In the past two years, Xu's family has changed the most.
The previous Xu family was graceful and grand, and was the Dinghai Sword of the Shen family. Compared with Chen Cang, who was busy with official business, Xu was the real family member of Chen’s house. However, as Chen Cang was aging and sick in recent years, Xu gave all the housework. I went out and took care of my husband's health, and was more cold to others. Even if I were to be with my children, I was not as enthusiastic as I had in the past few years.
Although it is an old couple, Xu is devoted to her husband. It is indeed amazing that the couple has a deep love, but when the wild geese fly alone, how can they bear it?
The main courtyard, go to the room.
Looking at the white porcelain bowl in front of him, Chen Cang begged for mercy and said, "Good lady, I have used sugar water twice this morning, so I will give up my husband..."
Xu smiled and said, "This is not sugar water, this is boiled radish soup, and there is no sugar added..."
"The carrot is good..." Chen Cang knew that these were medicinal recipes for moistening the lungs and relieving cough. After receiving his wife's kindness, he took the soup bowl.
A few pieces of white radish that are a square inch inside melted in their mouths and brought sweetness to their mouths. Chen Cang ate the sugar water for a few days, but it was already sweet and greasy. He was surprised and nodded quickly. : "This is good, this is good, I will prepare this in the future..."
