Four hundred and thirtieth eight chapters top door (four)
Chen Cang is the head of the Shen family, and there are no elders in the family. He does not need to reduce his energy during funerals, so he will stop for 70 to 49 days.
Happy and happy events are two major events that people attach the most importance to. The Shen family is also united. Except for the young and ignorant of the world, everyone else focuses on mourning.
After a few days of bed, the third master struggled, but he was still sad, but he could still follow Shen Zhou to welcome relatives and friends.
"Continue three", "burn first seven", "burn second seven"... As the sacrifices passed, the gate of the Shen Mansion gradually became deserted from the initial traffic.
After Chen Cang's death, the aura of Ai Rong gradually faded, and these imperial officials also began to re-examine the Shen family. Chen Zhou became the little Jiuqing, and the Imperial College was extremely expensive. But after all, it was the Imperial College in Nanjing, not the Imperial College in Beijing, and it was full of time. When he was able to return to Beijing to work as a deputy hall, he was also at the age of retirement. Chen Runxiang Yin was a servant of the Central Secretariat, but he was not from the right path, and he could not be a servant of the two halls, and he would not be able to follow the path of the censor in the future. As a two-bedroom house, even if you have enough years, you will be promoted to an assistant and become an official. Your future will be limited. In addition, this third master is famous for his poor health, so he will often be dispersed in the future. It’s a different story to whether you can reach the fifth grade.
After the sacrificial sacrifice on the scene, fewer people continued to pay attention to the Shen family.
Due to the "Beijing Inspection" this year, many Beijing officials were transferred, including those who were promoted and those who were out of office. In addition, by the end of the year, many households and families married daughters and daughters, and various relationships require social interactions. The Minister of Justice Chen The news of Cang's death gradually became a yellow flower yesterday, and few people have mentioned it.
Chen Zhou was not angry when he saw the world was cold and cold. He had experienced this incident when the great master passed away.
The third master was still sad, but he was restrained, and he was unwilling to let his family be distracted by him at this time. He knew that in this family, the saddest thing about Chen Cang's death was definitely not himself, but his 40-year-old brother. Sister-in-law.
Because of worrying about Xu, the third master was still weak and sweating when he moved, and his qi and blood were insufficient, he did not continue to recuperate. He often took his third wife and fourth brother to the room to comfort Xu.
Although the third master and Chen Cang are not the same mother, both brothers are very similar, and they are three-pointed in appearance, but the third master is more handsome. Now the third master has lost a lot of haggardness and purity due to the sad death of his elder brother. The calmness of the past, looking at how many years older, was more and more similar to Chen Cang.
When Xu saw this, he felt very sad. What her husband was most worried about during his lifetime was that he and this young brother were the most troublesome to mourn. Xu had to think a little about it and asked people to stare at the third master's body.
Xu thought of Chenzhou and Shen Rui's uncle and nephew from the third master. No matter how Chenzhou couldn't raise it, the Shen family still needed him to strengthen his career. Even if there were any problems before, it would be difficult to make further difficulties, but the current level of this level still needs to be protected. Keep it, otherwise, after Shen Rui entered the imperial examination, he would have less care and protection from his relatives. Although the Shen family had effective relatives and in-laws in the court, relatives were relatives after all, and they were not as good as their own flesh and blood.
As soon as Xu's thoughts were separated, his grief was reduced a little, which made people feel much more at ease. At her age, if she didn't look at her more openly and was depressed, she would never be able to stand it.
That day, the day before Chen Cang's "March 7" was Mao Cheng who sent Yu Jie'er back.
"Sanqi" is done by the married daughter, also known as "Daughter Qi". Yu Jie'er came back specifically to discuss the next day's sacrifice.
Seeing that although Xu was haggard, his spirit was better than when he was on the "Erqi" period, Yu Jie'er also breathed a sigh of relief. Chen Cang is the pillar of the Shen family's officialdom, but Xu is the head of the Shen family's house. Now Shen Cang has passed away. If Xu had another chance, the Shen family would be disbanded.
All Yu Jie'er's worries were written on her face. When Xu saw this, she moved her heart. Her eyes slammed Yu Jie'er's stomach and whispered: "Can I change my clothes this month?"
When Sister Yu heard this, Xia Feifei's cheeks, lowered her head and nodded gently.
Although Yu Jie'er started to be filial for a few days after getting married, she still had a few days before. If she was happy, she would have reacted now. Now she is changing her clothes, she was not pregnant last month. Next, she is a married daughter. My sister must be mourning for a year.
Although Xu was a little disappointed, thinking about Yu Jie'er's age, he patted Yu Jie'er's back and said, "It's good that you are still young. It's also a good thing to take more time to adjust your body..."
Yu Jie'er nodded and said, "Don't worry, my daughter will take good care of herself. She just regrets that she will leave home early and cannot be filial to her mother..."
If Yu Jie'er had to choose for herself, she would rather stay at home for three years and stay with her family than marry early. Although Shen Rui is still there in Xu's name, her son and daughter are still different. No matter how filial Shen Rui is, she cannot be I would accompany Xu every day, but it would be fine if it were Yu Jie'er.
Xu said: "Let me worry, your brother and sister are getting older, and I can't rest assured that your lifelong affairs will be yours. I'll be half as relaxed when your sister-in-law comes in. Completely at ease…”
Sister Yu leaned her head on Xu's arm and said, "Mom, don't think about being lazy. Whether my second brother will win the imperial palace or get married or have children in the future, my mother needs to stay at home..."
Xu thought of her husband's words during his lifetime and felt very sad. Her eyes were red, but she smiled and said, "Good boy, we must all be fine, okay..."
Huanghuafang, Gonghou Street, in a courtyard house.
Looking at his gentle and elegant son, Zheng and Youyouyan couldn't take a look and nodded, "Brother is so handsome..."
Chen Jin took off the brocade cotton coat that he had tried to produce, shook his head and said, "Why are you so anxious? My son is not wearing clothes..."
Zheng smiled and said, "I can't wait. I want to see my elder brother wearing the new clothes I sewed earlier..."
Since the 13th year of Hongzhi, Zheng left Songjiang and set off for Shanxi. The mother and son have not seen each other for four years. The son is the flesh and blood of his mother. Zheng has not wanted to Chen Jin for a day. Since he received a letter from the south, he knew that his son was in the middle. After learning about Yuan Dynasty, she was about to go to Beijing to take the exam, so she waited with her fingers.
Looking forward day and night, Chen Jin finally came to the capital. Seeing that his son was thin, Zheng took out the new clothes he had prepared, but the size was wrong. The previous size was enough, but it was a scam. Zheng The squat was put on the light overnight and modified a set of cotton coats. Then he pulled his son to try it on.
Seeing that the size was right, Zheng's face became more joyful: "Since it fits, just wear it... The capital is much colder than Songjiang Mansion, please don't be frozen..." At this point, he paused and said: " It’s better to have a good time elsewhere. Brother Rui still needs to see the elders of Rui Geer. Not only does the elders of the clan need to visit him, but even Brother Rui also needs to thank him for his good life."
Although the yard where Zheng now lives is not big, it is a broken yard, but the location is very good. The surroundings are all scholars. Even if there are outsiders, they are all juren who are preparing for the exam in Beijing. The location is only half a quarter of an hour away from the Gongyuan, and it will be much cheaper next year when Chen Jin comes out.
Zheng's feelings about Shen Rui have always been very subtle. However, Sun also saw that Shen Rui was Sun's biological son. No matter how naughty he was when he was a child, he was just naughty. He was not mean and vicious, but a broad-minded person. Just like Sun back then, he was a man who was not so ruthless and vicious. The mistress of the clan never despised the same method as Zheng's clan, and Shen Rui had never targeted Chen Jin, and even helped him when he could.
Chen Jin will take the imperial examination in the future. Although he is now a step ahead of Shen Rui in fame, Shen Rui is backed by the Shangshu Mansion. It is not a bad thing for Shen Jin and the brothers Shen Rui to support each other.
Chen Jin shook his head and said, "I will go to the clan Bo's house tomorrow, but I can't wear new clothes... I brought plain clothes in my luggage, and my mother helped me find a set of them..."
Zheng was stunned when he heard this and said in confusion: "Simple clothes, why do you wear simple clothes?"
Chen Jin sighed and said, "My son met Brother Ying yesterday and found out that Uncle Hong of the Second House was gone for 22 last month. He is now mourning..."
It was the first time Zheng heard the news that he was shocked.
Although Chen Jin sent someone to go to the capital to settle the house, the staff here were a family member given to Zheng Xiaowei, and two local mothers added after they arrived in the capital.
Zheng Xiaowei had already released him from Beijing, so Zheng kept guarding his son and was not well informed. As for Shen Rui's side, he sent someone to him when he had placed Zheng earlier. Knowing that Zheng was fine, he did not send him again. After all, as the former concubine and the legitimate son, they are not close to each other. Even for Shen Jin, Shen Rui can do his best to resettle Zheng, which is the end. If you want to say that you are like a relative It's ridiculous to walk around.
Renshoufang, Shangshu Mansion.
Shen Rui stood outside the gate and watched Mao Chi help Yu Jie'er get on the carriage. He was quite satisfied. Although Yu Jie'er now needs to be mourned and needs to separate a house with Mao Chi, it may not be a bad thing. Shen Rui himself is a man. I know that a man’s virtue is, the easier it is to get a hand, the harder it is to cherish it; if you stretch and hang, the more you will be troublesome
Sister Yu got on the carriage, and Mao Chi bowed and said goodbye to Shen Rui. He rode on the carriage and left, and Shen Rui turned around and went back.
As soon as Mao Chi arrived at the entrance of the alley, he saw Chen Quan bringing two servants over there.
Mao Chi quickly pulled the horse and called out, "Brother Quan San..."
Chen Quan also pulled his horse, greeted Mao Chi, and said a few words to Yu Jie'er through the carriage curtain, saying, "It's not a place to talk outside, I'll talk to you tomorrow..."
Mao Chi responded and waited for Chen Quan to leave before he asked the driver to continue moving forward.
At this moment, Chen Quan had already dismounted at the door of the Shangshu Mansion.
For more than half a month, Chen Quan had been here for half a month. Everyone knew that this clan master had the best relationship with his second master. His eldest wife and several masters also valued this person, so he was very attentive. The two servants who were supposed to be placed in the gatehouse stepped forward, and the ones who were leading the horse and the ones who were asking for peace.
Chen Quan said: "Where is your second young master? Where are you now?"
One person said, "I just sent my aunt and aunt to the mourning hall..."
Chen Quan grabbed a handful of copper from his purse, gave him half a handful, and walked towards the mourning hall to look for Shen Rui.
In the mourning hall, not only Shen Rui is there, but also Chen Zhou and the third master...
