lnmao.org, do you know the fastest update? Do you know? It should be the latest chapter of Green Fat Red Thin!
Chunwei is usually in mid-February. This year, due to the poor dragon body of the emperor, it was delayed until early March. Changbai and Qi Heng set off in February and a half. Since he left, the Wang family burned incense and worshipped Buddha and Taoist temples every day. The room was filled with smoke. Outsiders saw it and thought that Shengfu was on fire, which almost attracted the watering team. Every time Ming Lan went to Wang's place to ask for peace, his eyes were flushed. Sheng Hong initially reprimanded a few words of ‘the child is not talking about strange things’, but according to reliable information, he also secretly worshipped twice.
This kind of test takes three days in one test, and every test is like a crime. After passing the test, you have to peel off. As soon as Qi Heng leaves the test room, he is carried back sideways by the servants of the Qi State Government. Chang Bai is strong. Stepped onto the carriage with his own feet, and then was picked up by Changwu, who was a teacher in Jingwei Wushu, to rest. Therefore, it was a good news to arrive one step earlier than the candidates, and Changbai won the fifth place in the second class.
Wang was overjoyed, and immediately wanted to set off firecrackers to disperse money and shemi, so Sheng Hong hurriedly stopped--Qi Heng fell off the list.
Fortunately, Master Qi, he knows that the first time like Changbai is rare after all, most of the candidates are only the second or third time, that is, they have been tested for more than ten years, but Princess Pingning's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
Qi's family has enough connections, even if you die, you must be clear. Old Qi Guogong consulted the examiner this time. The adult stroked his beard and tugged a few sentences, which roughly meant: The examinee kept things simple for the Chunwei exam. Since Qiuwei, he has been studying behind closed doors, and his family has been well. For fear that Dengzhou is not lively enough, he rushed back to the capital to celebrate the New Year. Let Qi Heng drink and go banquets and see the flowers for a month or two. It was lively enough, only the last half of the month. How can I pass the test if I am tempted?
Pingning County Lord regrets it, Master Qi slapped his legs to realize: No wonder Shengfu is so deserted and deserted during the New Year, that's why! I had known that I had let my son spend the New Year in Dengzhou, and I couldn't help but look at Sheng Hong differently-he was from a professional class and had experience in playing.
A few days later, the Hanlin Academy re-examination, Changbai was selected as the Shujishi, stayed in the library to teach editing, and took office in the next year. With this news, the marriage of Changbai brother is agreed. In the middle is the second young lady of the head of the Jiang Ninghai family, a scholarly family, with noble families, and both father and brother are officials in the court. Regarding these two events, Sheng Hong and Wang's reactions were mixed.
"It's rare for Brother Bo to do well in the exam. Why didn't he go to the deserted place of the Hanlin Academy to endure if he didn't let him go!" Wang cried and complained about Sheng Hong. An uncle led Bogeer to call the door and hand in a post to clear up the relationship, but he got a low-grade custard!"
"Women's opinion! What do you know, how clean and noble the Hanlin Academy is, and Brother Bo'er is still young, if he is released, he will be inferior!" Sheng Hong saw that he was demoted by Wang Clan Worthless and half-dead with anger.
Wang didn’t know what was so precious about the Hanlin Academy, only that it was true that the Hanlin Bachelor was poor, cold, and poor; but she also knew that Sheng Hong was more knowledgeable in this respect, so she stopped talking, but another One thing is more worrying.
"That’s all, we women do not understand, but I gave birth to brother Bo, I can always be the master of this matter of begging my daughter-in-law, now the master said he would not tell me, so please After Uncle Geng Shi went to talk about my dear, it was only then that I was a mother-in-law who knew which daughter-in-law was! Where did the master put me!" Wang felt more aggrieved, and kept his head down and wiped tears.
Sheng Hong sat at the kang table, took a famille rose with a bean green background into a kiln tea bowl and sneered, "Don’t think I don’t know, you have taken a look at your elder sister’s girl, if it’s not me Do it first, and I'm afraid you will invite your niece to stay here this month!"
Wang was utterly discouraged, and simply dropped the veil on the kang, and his eyes stood up: "What's wrong with Yuner? Knowing the book is reasonable, Xiuwaihuihuizhong, and the relatives of Bogeer's middle cousin, knowing each other. Yes, I see no better!"
"Yes! Knowing the roots and knowing the bottom!" Sheng Hong heavily paused the tea bowl on the kang table: "Don't say anything else, the eldest brother-in-law has such a good family background, now Guaner is not as old as I am, and he was his father Ding You a few years ago. , Actually Ding had several children. Yushitai participated in his filial piety period and was dismissed from office. He did not think about how to clarify the relationship and return to the court to make up for the vacancy. Comment on the political affairs! Do you want such an in-law?"
Wang was embarrassed, and sneered: "Even if the master thinks that the Kang family is defeated now, he should not go to the Hai family. Their family rules clearly order that their children and grandchildren can only take a concubine and be their daughter-in-law. It couldn’t be better, but what do you want for a girl like this? I heard that after Miss Hai Family went out, she disobeyed her mother-in-law for three days, and her husband was not allowed to accept concubines. Come in, how do the master tell me to be a mother-in-law!"
Sheng Hong scolded: "Nonsense! If not, how can our family get married with Hai's family! As long as you don't make troubles and stuff people into Boge's room, you will be fine if you be your mother-in-law!"
The couple had a big quarrel and broke up.
Wang was very unwilling, so he cried to the old lady Sheng, asking the old lady to make the decision for herself.
The old lady Sheng lay halfway on the soft couch, closed her eyes, listened to Wang's cries, patted her on the back lightly, and sighed: "Master is not a person who came from nowhere, so how is the Kang family now? Although the Kang family and my family are also related by marriage, they are not as important as Boge's future, and his wife should be cautious."
Wang knew that Mrs. Sheng looked at nothing against the world, but she knew in her heart. In addition to crying dizzy, she simply spread out and said: "...My eldest brother-in-law is too unbelievable, now my sister There are as many as a dozen concubines and concubines in front of me. I don’t know what rotten women give birth to every one, and the house is crowded! All of them need to be taken care of by their sisters, and they need to be married. Dowry, married couples need a dowry, and the brother-in-law will only be an official and will not make money. The sister’s dowry will not be paid in. If the sister refuses, those uncles in the clan who are not good at eating will say that the sister is not good! Now the Kang family is afraid that it’s empty. Fortunately, the sister’s son is still arrogant. A few years ago, he was given the head of the ceremonial department. As a younger sister, I have to help. Moreover, the Kang family’s family is not considered to be insulting our family. ."
The old lady Sheng looked at the smoke of a flower-patterned gold fragrance scattered all around, and sighed softly: "My wife is kind, but it's not pleasant to say that a sister can't kiss her son no matter what! ...I am also a mother-in-law, and I know my wife's thoughts, but I am afraid that the Hai family is so powerful that I will not be able to suppress my daughter-in-law in the future, eh—?"
The old lady Sheng's clear and sharp gaze swept over, and Wang's conscience was guilty. In fact, she and her eldest sister didn’t have a very good relationship. There were quarrels in her boudoir, but later the Sheng family and the Kang family disappeared. After the transfer, her sister often wrote letters lamenting and complaining. A few years ago, she started lobbying for marriage, and she was very comfortable with flattery.
The old lady Sheng looked at Wang's face uncertain, and lightly patted Wang's shoulder: "At the beginning, there were clan relatives from the Xu family who came to say kisses to the master, but I have all come back. Your Wang family and our family have never had any contact. But the old lady, I still begged you to be a daughter-in-law. At first, the old man was able to have a smooth career and benefited from a lot of his in-laws. You have children, and do housework. I dare to say today: I never regretted hiring you that day! Pity the world’s motherly heart, Boge’s future and his wife’s satisfaction, which one is more important?"
Wang was said to be flushed, thinking that his daughter-in-law was actually incompetent, so he got embarrassed, put away the veil and wiped the corners of his eyes lightly.
The old lady Sheng said again: "Don’t worry, Mother Kong once told me that the second lady of the Hai Family's character and morals are all excellent, and you will be able to make peace with you; Miss Kang She is the wife's niece, can she put on her mother-in-law's profile and be ruthlessly disciplined? Looking back at Changbai's prosperous future, the title of life is indispensable for the wife, wouldn't it be better?"
Wang’s heart was said to have been said, even after thinking about it, thinking of Sheng Hong’s simple and rude communication methods, he was aggrieved: "I am not an unreasonable person. If the master also told me like this, how can I get there? Eyes appeared in front of the old lady;... But what about Yooner? She is seventeen, and her brother-in-law now has no official position. Don't delay the child."
The old lady Sheng smiled, and lovingly took Wang's hand: "How does the lady feel about Brother Wu in the hall?"
Wang was stunned after hearing this: "What does the old lady mean...?"
The old lady Sheng said indifferently: "Although the Kang family is a family, the official now is just your nephew. When it comes to the wealth of the family, his wife knows better than me; your Uncle Wei’s family dare not say that the family is rich. But he is also wealthy and wealthy. His family has only two brothers. In the future, Brother Wu will have a separate family and have a surplus. You know the character of Brother Wu best as an aunt. You have been single in the capital these years. He is honest and motivated, and he has never had any troubles. It is also a good thing to kiss and kiss."
Wang hesitated: "But... after all, it's a merchant..."
Looking at Wang's appearance, Mrs. Sheng raised the corners of her mouth slightly. She wanted to say a few words of sarcasm, but she held back, and said bluntly: "Brother Wu has been recommended to Zhongweiwei. When he took office, he had both official status and personality, and wealth and wealth. If it wasn't for the bad luck of the marriage, he wouldn't be able to say that he would be close. My old sister-in-law would not trust me. If the wife really feels bad, then forget it. , I’ll find someone to ask another girl separately."
When Wang heard this, he was anxious, and quickly said: "The old lady is in no hurry. I will write to my sister. This is really an excellent marriage. If I want to come to my sister, I understand."
As I said, I hurriedly left. Looking at Wang’s violent back, Mrs. Sheng let out a long sigh, and suddenly heard the wind moving from the curtain behind, and said, "Little things, enough to hear. , Not coming out yet!"
I saw Minglan rubbing her eyes, her little face was sleeping red and white, her cheeks still had a faint pillow print, she was only wearing a pink jacket with silk embroidered magnolia flowers, and she was kicking. Coming out of the back room, she threw herself into the arms of the old lady, and twisted and arched up the kang like a chubby squirrel. The old lady Sheng hurriedly stretched out her hand to embrace the little granddaughter in her arms, but said with a stern face: "Take you back to take a nap , I have to rely on me, but I was woken up."
Ming Lan put her arms around her grandmother’s neck and said in a glutinous voice: "Grandma, I want to have a new sister-in-law?"
"What kind of garlic is the little girl? Didn't you hear it all?" The old lady patted Minglan on the back.
Minglan blinked slyly: "Grandma, you actually came to Miss Haijia, right?"
The old lady Sheng gave Ming Lan a white glance, and she scanned the doors and windows from the corner of her eyes. Cuiping on the side understood that she turned around and went to inspect again. The old lady stroked Ming Lan's hair and said, "It's also your troublesome man. The daughter-in-law was a mother-in-law, but she came to bother your grandmother. It doesn’t matter if Brother Bo is the eldest son and grandson of our family, he can’t be taken lightly."
Ming Lan raised her smiling face, and the powder was pure and innocent: "Father and mother Qin Se and Ming, respect and respect each other like friends, must be very satisfied with the grandmother's ability to date."
The old lady Sheng sternly wanted to scold, but couldn't help but laugh first. She only pinched her granddaughter twice, shook her head and said: "Your eldest brother is much better than your father back then. , There is a dad who has just promoted to the fifth rank, a brother-in-law who is loyal to the Boss House, and a decent uncle. It is not to be underestimated that the scholarship of the Hai family is so delicate."
In fact, at the beginning, the Hai family was not optimistic about Changbai, and felt that the Sheng family’s family background was a little weak, but the old lady Sheng was very confident. The Wang family had hesitated about Sheng Hong’s marriage back then, but the old lady Dangsheng brought Sheng When Hong came to visit, the old lady of the Wang family immediately agreed as soon as she saw the gentle and gentle Sheng Hong in Yushu—the so-called mother-in-law sees her son-in-law, the more she looks at it, the more she likes it.
Mrs. Sheng is very experienced in operation. This time I asked the aunt of the Geng family to take Changbai to pay a visit. When Mrs. Haijia saw the upright and upright Changbai, she agreed with half of her heart, and she didn’t know that. Has Miss Haijia ever peeked through the curtain? If she did, she might have been hooked.
Of course, these Minglan don’t know, Mrs. Sheng said again: “Miss Haijia told me that Mother Kong told me a few years ago. De Rong’s merits are not bad. The men in the family don’t accept concubines, and even the daughters they raise can’t fit in the concubine room. Haimen girls are difficult to marry. But your elder brother is not afraid of this. All these years have shared a common room, what’s the name... um..."
"Called Yanghao." Minglan took it up.
The old lady Sheng said lightly: "This is okay. The other bad names are also called by your elder brother. What a girl is called a pig, wolf, chicken, and rat.... That sheep is no better than a middleman, It’s also a duty. It doesn’t matter if you want to stay or send it back."
Listening to the understatement of the old lady determines the life of a girl. Minglan gradually darkened her eyes. The future of a girl who has been taken by her host but has no status like Yang Hao is actually very worrying. They The best ending is to lift up the aunt. After giving birth in the main house, if the host's grace is still there, she can still have a child. If the host's husband and wife are harmonious, she will become a decoration from then on, and she will slowly stay young. The owner could not tolerate it, so he sent it out, or let it go, or matched it.
But what good person can you match? It's just the servants in the house, the mud worms in the market, the woodcutter in the mountains, the farmer in the fields, and any man with a family background who has the ability to beg and aunt will not want a broken woman.
But I can’t just tolerate it. Minglan knows that the tragedy of the old lady was largely the result of grandpa Sheng’s auntie. This kind of maid who served the young master since childhood was familiar with her The host has a deep friendship, and often has a strong position before the hostess enters the door, and sometimes even puts a cover on the new hostess.
Ming Lan asked herself: Will she deal with her opponent without hesitation?
