Jue Luo really couldn't help but mind the operation of the General's Mansion.
"I never thought that I would act like this..." Jue Luo said in annoyance.
Shu Shu said: "Qingru Ama is a fool who has been registered in front of the emperor. It is difficult to make up for the vacancies. There is no point in trying."
Not in the officialdom, the ones who are bothering are the ill-informed parents.
When the bride takes over, they will be treated as ordinary in-laws.
Jueluo breathed out a sigh of relief, already regretting it in his heart.
This marriage was scheduled early.
She had already regretted the successive farces.
"This is all a lesson. One cannot be greedy. No matter how good Qingru's reputation was back then, no matter how capable she was, I still had selfish motives. I thought that over there was the prince's in-law, and Zhuliang's future would be brightened not only by borrowing more money from me, but also by borrowing more money from me.
Don’t worry about being bullied…”
As a result, nothing matters.
The greed of the past has been punished now.
The prince is in an embarrassing situation, and the prince's in-laws in the General's Mansion are also on the decline.
Shu Shu couldn't help but say: "When will Ama and the others come back? Isn't it time for the mistress to fill the gap? We can't just follow the flag all the time..."
The so-called walking with the flag means doing odd jobs.
Disciples of nobles who have titles but no real vacancies can walk with the flag when they reach adulthood.
Zhuliang is 19 this year, and Xiaosan is 17. The former has been walking with the flag for several years, and the latter has been walking for more than a year.
Here in Zhuliang, the family has taken good care of Wu Queer, who is stationed at the Rehe Palace. After getting married, he will take his wife to his post.
There is no need to delay any longer here, there is always a choice.
Jueluo said: "The mistress has to fill the vacancy. There is a vacancy for a foreign minister in the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and the mistress is among the candidates."
If the mistress has a fourth-grade title, he can supplement it by being a military attache in the capital from the fifth to the fourth grade. If he is a civil servant, he can only supplement the rank of Yuanwailang, who is from the fifth grade.
If you want to be high in rank, a military officer is better than a civilian officer.
But the higher you go, the fewer the number of military attaches in the capital.
There are relatively more civil servants in the capital.
The mistress doesn't have an obscure in-law family, and she doesn't have to go to any place to garrison.
Shu Shu was not surprised and said: "It's good to have a choice. You will have to wait for years to get promoted in the future. There is no need to delay it any longer."
Because the twins, Xiao San and Xiao Si, were physically weaker than their brothers, they originally valued literature over martial arts.
Jueluo Shi also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, otherwise, the age is next to that of the second waiter, and the vacancy will be filled in front of the second waiter, and there will be nothing to say in the future..."
Zhuliang is the eldest son, but he does not have a title. He only wears a rank of fourth rank and is outside the Rehe Palace. He does not know when he will be able to return to Beijing.
But don’t be afraid of being late for a good meal.
When Zhu Liang attacks the earl, he can directly replace him as deputy commander, and his future will not be worse than that of his brothers.
It's just that Qi Xi is in his prime, and Zhu Liang will have to suffer here.
If the mistress was replaced as a military attache and still in the capital, her seniority would be ahead of Zhu Liang. When the time came, he would be replaced as deputy commander first, which would block Zhu Liang's future.
Shu Shu was a little surprised after hearing this. He glanced at Luo Shi and said, "Enie, you actually think like this?"
At first, there was no sign that the couple was having a baby.
Jueluo rolled his eyes at Shu Shu and said, "If the title had been given to Zhuliang first, there would be no need to delay Zhuliang for the past few years."
It was also the selfishness of the couple, who did not want their sons to compete for the title, so they quickly decided on the ownership of the two titles.
Shu Shu was noncommittal.
What do fifteen- and six-year-old boys know?
When you are in your twenties, you have gained some knowledge and experience, so you can avoid making mistakes when you start working as an errand.
Who said Dong E's family has many sons?
No matter how this title is arranged with Yin Sheng, there are still some things that cannot be taken care of.
Shu Shu reminded: "It's right to keep the elders and younger ones in order, but when you become an official, you and Amma should stop interfering and let them fend for themselves."
"Am I going to achieve nirvana?"
I feel that Luo Shi is not in a good mood.
Before lunch, Qi Xi and his son came back one after another.
Except for Xiaoliu's absence, everyone is here.
Shu Shu took Ms. Zhang's hand and said, "My brothers and sisters are tired. Eni was not at home a while ago, so you have to work hard both here and outside."
Mrs. Zhang shook her head and said: "It's nothing, I'm just making up the numbers. I just follow Eni's rules, so don't worry about it."
Shu Shu said: "Jiuye wrote a letter and mentioned that the boss came to court. He was in high spirits and looked healthier than when he was in the capital."
Zhang was a little excited when she heard the news about her father, and said, "Is there any news about my mother?"
Shu Shu shook his head and said: "On this southern tour, the Holy Emperor drove a light chariot and followed simple instructions. He did not bring any concubines with him, and the officials who came to the court did not bring their official orders."
Fusong was standing by and advised Mrs. Zhang: "If you miss your mother-in-law, send someone back to your hometown, or I can accompany you to Guining in two years..."
Mrs. Zhang glanced at Fusong, shook her head and said, "No, I'm just sentimental for a moment. Letters from home are constantly coming and going, and there are still a few brothers and sisters-in-law in my hometown, so there's nothing to worry about."
Qi Xi looked at Shu Shu and complained: "Why did you come back alone? You can't bring all the children, so you should bring the big princess back..."
As soon as he said this, several uncles were also thinking about Ni Guzhu.
Shu Shu took a breath and said: "I'm sick of whooping cough. I'm keeping it at home. I don't dare to take it out."
Everyone was very worried after hearing this.
Especially Qi Xi and Jue Luo Shi, the old couple looked at each other and thought of Shu Shu's cough when she was a child.
Both of them were a little worried, whether Ni Guzhu was the same.
Qi Xi frowned and said, "What did the imperial doctor say?"
Shu Shu said: "The imperial doctor said that there will be no rain in the spring this year, and the dust will easily induce 'whooping cough' in children. It will be cured when it rains during the Qingming Festival."
Qi Xi and Jue Luoshi were half relieved that it was not a symptom of the disease.
The family had a reunion dinner.
After dinner, the brothers who were working as errands and studying were about to leave.
Shu Shu looked at Zhu Liang and said, "The waiter will stay for a while."
She came back just to prepare for Zhuliang's marriage. When she met the rightful owner, she naturally had to do business.
Zhuliang responded and didn't leave.
There were only two sisters and brother left in the house, as well as Jueluo Shi.
Shu Shu took some deed papers, handed them to Zhuliang, and said, "They were the shops sold by the Ministry of Revenue last year. I bought two of them, and they were placed directly in your name, and they will be used as wedding gifts for you."
Zhu Liang hurriedly waved her hands and said: "No, no, eldest sister, it's not easy to make this example."
It would only be fine if there were only a few brothers, but Dong E's family had many brothers.
If you give away property like this, most of your sister's dowry will be returned.
Shu Shu stuffed it into his hand and said: "Keep it well. This case was not started by you. Fusong is my brother and you are my brother. I have prepared two properties for him and two properties for you. Don't complain."
I just feel sorry for you."
Zhuliang still refused to accept it and said: "My cousin and I are different. My cousin's family is not rich, but I can divide the family property."
Shu Shu hummed and said: "Stop nagging, you are a sensible brother, and I am just a partial sister? Isn't that more? In the future, mistress and mistress will also have the same kind of preparation for their wedding. It is just for them, not for two."
A shop is a shop and a small house, just like Fusong."
Except for Zhuliang, everyone else will move.
The house in the Bo's Mansion was given to Zhuliang, and the house in the Dutong Mansion should be reserved for the youngest son Xiaoqi, in addition to Qi Xi and his wife's retirement.
After all, when Xiao Qi came here, his title and status were no longer relevant, so he suffered a lot compared to his brothers.
Zhu Liang then took the deed and said with a bit of embarrassment, "Sister's dowry will all be spent on us."
Shu Shu said: "What's the point? You are all my biological brothers, not others. Besides, 'a good man doesn't eat the food of the separated family, and a good girl doesn't wear the wedding clothes.' My sister is well off, and she doesn't need these few dollars."
…”
Although Zhuliang was the eldest son, he did not receive much favoritism, he was also kind-hearted, and he did not pay attention to money and titles.
If someone is selfish, he will treat the properties of Dong E's family and Mrs. Bo as his own private property at any cost, and will not allow his brothers to get involved.
Shu Shu was wary of his mistress, but he had an ambitious father-in-law.
As a result, there is no need to be on guard now.
After Zhu Liang left, Shu Shu asked Jue Luo, "Is there any sign of mistress' marriage?"
Jueluo said: "Fujin, the prince of Shuncheng County, proposed the three-part marriage over there, but I declined it. It's not suitable. We have already made an agreement with the Norob family. There is no need to marry two cousins in one family..."
