Two ships when I came, and six ships when I came back. If it’s an official posture, then Yushi can immediately roll up his sleeves and rub the ink and write the reference book. Fortunately, Minglan and grandmother are just going to relatives, Beijing. The letter said that Sheng Hong is still an excellent performance appraisal this time. He has already made up for the Ministry of Industry Physician. He is the chief manager of the Qing clerk. His rank has not changed, but he is a Beijing official.
Since I want to settle down in the capital, I simply move the things from the old house to decorate, plus the food and clothing items given by Sheng Wei and Uncle Erniu. There are dozens of boxes of silk, satin, leather, and velvet. The grandparents said goodbye to their relatives and boarded the boat.
Actually, Ming Lan is quite strange. Her father has been trusting the relationship for a long time. He also has a good political record. He thought that he could get into the head of the six ministries, at least the Ministry of Justice. Popular units, the current emperor has been in power for more than 20 years. The construction of palaces and temples has been completed early. At this moment, the Ministry of Industry is peaceful and idle like a nursing home. How could Sheng Hong go there? Minglan asked Mrs. Sheng this way, and the old lady asked back: "Mingya feels it herself?"
Ming Lan rolled her eyes. Mrs. Sheng is an advocate of interactive inspiring teaching. She rarely tells Ming Lan why or how to do it. Ming Lan always thinks about everything by herself. Ming Lan thought about it and said:" The saint is getting old and his position is unknown. Now the capital is turbulent. If you really go to the places where you rob your head, you may get into trouble; Daddy is really smart."
The old lady Sheng smiled and stroked her granddaughter’s hair, nodded her head approvingly, Jiang Bo was smooth, the ship was steady, she only swayed slightly and she was very comfortable. During this time, she played with Pin Lan in Youyang and Minglan. In one place, the grandfather and grandson didn't talk very well, and they spoke again after getting on the boat.
"Stupid boy, who is not clever in the officialdom? Especially in the capital, the water is muddy, but some people are greedy and think they are smart, thinking about taking the opportunity to bet on the throne, but the palace How weird, it’s better for your father to be so clumsy.” Mrs. Sheng leaned on a bed covered with a blanket, and talked to Ming Lan leisurely, “Shi Cai, what did you say when you said goodbye to Pin Lan? Cuiwei said you didn't sleep well last night."
Ming Lan thought about it and said honestly: "After my name is Pin Lan, don't want to scream at my cousin Tai Sheng. It's a little more quiet and stable, my aunt will not like it." Mrs. Sheng glanced at Ming Lan. , Said leisurely: "You are so worried, your aunt likes girls the most refreshing and spicy, how can you not like it?"
Minglan sighed and said, "I love being a niece; if I am a daughter-in-law, it is hard to say." There is no mother-in-law in the world who likes to see her son become a wife's slave.
The old lady Sheng frowned and said: "What daughter-in-law? You are a girl, Hugh is so nonsense."
Ming Lan hurriedly said: "My grandmother and I can't say anything, and don't go outside to say that Pin Lan and Tai Sheng's cousin are a natural pair, and anyone who has eyes can see it."
The old lady Sheng seemed a little interested when she heard this, she sat up slowly, staring at Minglan and smiled: "From the point of view, Brother Tai is really a good boy. There is a wealthy shop and no brothers. Come to fight, there are a lot of people on the ground that Youyang see him. In the past few days, your aunt really loves you, and many of the babies at the bottom of the box are reluctant to give it to Pinlan, I am afraid they will all fall into your pocket."
Ming Lan looked into her grandmother’s eyes, and said seriously: "Aunty treats me well, most of it is thanks to your grandmother. No matter how stupid her granddaughter is, she won’t be so arrogant, Pin Lan and cousin Tai Sheng I grew up together, that... uh, childhood sweetheart."
The old lady Sheng was slightly surprised. She saw Minglan's eyes clear and bright, and she didn't hesitate at all. The old lady smiled and said, "You see it? Not stupid."
Ming Lan is very ashamed. If it hadn't been for an eavesdrop that day, she had been eating and having fun with Pin Lan these few days, but she wouldn't have thought of it.
The old lady Sheng was sitting up half-length, Ming Lan hurriedly took a big pillow and stuffed it behind her grandmother. She also consciously retracted into her grandmother’s mattress. The old lady put her arms around her granddaughter’s small shoulders and said: "This Put Yue at your uncle's house. You have watched a lot and listened a lot, and you have seen a different world. Is there any realization?"
Ming Lan leaned on her grandmother’s soft belly, lying very comfortable, and lazily said: "At first, I didn’t understand, but now I understand. When I was at home, I heard that Sanfang’s family was very unhelpful. My uncle’s house is very helpful, and I don’t know what’s good or bad. Later, when my granddaughter saw him, he looked down on Sanfang. What is strange is that the uncle’s family seems to have tolerated it from time to time. , I never forgot to invite them out; I just thought about it at that time, obviously the aunt didn’t wait to see them much, why didn’t she stay far away?"
The old lady Sheng patted Minglan's little hand and said: "Now you understand?"
"Yeah." Minglan rubbed her grandmother's belly, very kindly, and said: "Be strict with yourself and be lenient with others. All You Yang knows that the uncle's house is good, and he knows whether the three rooms are not. Everyone thinks it’s the fault of Sanfang."
The old lady Sheng nodded in satisfaction, twisted her granddaughter’s small face, and smiled: "You have been lazy since childhood and hated interpersonal relationships. I was worried that your temperament would be bad, but now I see you and understand mundane affairs. I am very happy. Ming girl, remember, the three rooms are no longer good, but the third old man is still there. It is said that he is a relative within two generations. If you really don’t ask about it, you only care about your wealth but don’t help. Don’t be said to be too poor and love the rich. Many merchants have unrighteous names, but your uncle is praised all over the county, but it costs a little bit of money, and it’s not in vain. Isn’t it better to have a good name and to be with future generations?"
Ming Lan knew that the old lady was teaching her, listened carefully, and interjected: "When Sister Shulan and I were leaving, Pin Lan and I were half-dead. The mother and son of the Sun family are so hateful, why should we leave half? After marrying with them, I thought about it later, if you really want to come over for the dowry, the grandson family will simply die, and they will definitely not reconcile. What should you do if you want to write a divorce letter? This is also the principle of ruining money and eliminating disasters."
The old lady Sheng stroked Minglan's soft temples lightly, and said slowly: "Yes, who is not angry with the family! There is no way, barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, peace and separation are easy, there must be a saying , Men have no virtue, mothers-in-law have no ability, this can't be said on the stage; my old sister-in-law has the means, moved with affection, understood with reason, lured with money, forced it to advantage, this kind All you need is to cut the mess with a sharp knife. After a day, I will send Shulan out immediately. When the gossip is gone, it will be fine."
Ming Lan nodded again and again, and suddenly got up and pouted: "But the Sun family is so hateful, it itches the teeth, just forget it?"
"The little girl is so angry!" The old lady Sheng said with a smile, "Your eldest aunt is not a vegetarian, but she can't do anything in a short day, and she can't show evil on the bright side. Other tribesmen make good friends, just wait for the future; but I see that Sun’s mother and son are foolish and greedy, maybe they won’t be able to get along without others doing it."
Ming Lan said happily: "Pin Lan agreed to me, and Sun Xiucai wrote to me as soon as he has a story, and I will read it to my grandmother at that time." The old lady Sheng scolded, "Naughty little girl, this I like quarrels and troubles, which is great! This time you can have enough with Pin Lan. I have never restrained you at all. When you get home, you have to converge."
Ming Lan hugged her grandmother's arm and Chen Ken promised: "Grandma, don't worry, I have seen the world this time, and I know a lot of people's affections, and when I go back, I will be fine and don't let you worry about it."
The old lady Sheng put her arms around her little granddaughter lovingly, and said leisurely: "There is someone to worry about, and the day will be better."
When we arrived at the Beijing-Tianjin Ferry, we disembarked and boarded the car, all the way along the official road to the capital. As soon as we arrived at the gate of the capital, there was a maid of Sheng’s servant waiting.
Speaking of a place like the capital city, there are hundreds of officials and powerful people on the ground. The price of real estate is not cheaper than that of Yao Yiyi's capital at that time, and it is more turbulent in ancient times. In addition to money, it also needs identity, especially those in prime locations close to the imperial city. , Those who are not noble in their careers, and whose background is not clean, are not allowed to live with money.
For example, a loan shark or a small boss of a meat joint factory can’t even use the Titanic to pretend to be money. The Sheng family is a merchant, but it’s not a good idea, but a few decades ago, the old grandfather Sheng took advantage of his ancestral grave to smoke his son. While exploring the flowers, with fame and cash, he bought a four-five-five-inclusive mansion outside Tai'an Gate. It was located in the upper middle and upper middle area. On the right was Linqingfang where scholars lived, and on the left was Banlazi's wealthy residential area. The opportunity to marry the daughter of Lord Hou, by the way, buy a garden after the mansion, and connect it after opening up.
In the same year or colleagues of Sheng Hong, many of them were from ordinary backgrounds who relied on imperial examinations, so they could only buy houses in the outskirts of the capital or in the hutongs at the corners. Sheng Hong became one of the few officials of the same level who owned garden houses; Ming Lan once again lamented the importance of reincarnation.
"The old man knew that the old man had such a house. He felt that it was not a poor family without a foundation and foundation, so he reluctantly agreed to marriage." Fang's mother bit her ear at Minglan.
Minglan sighed up to the sky: If a man wants to get married, does he have to have a house?
