Hearing this, Feng Shi hurriedly said: "It's really eyeless! It's so hot, where can I tell that kid to wait outside? Why don't you hurry up and invite Xing'er in?!"

While talking, he straightened his clothes, lowered his voice and said to Sheng Weiqiao, "Bacheng is here to ask Rao'er." ”

Since the old lady Sheng forcibly divided the second room, because he was in a hurry with the Bai family's new funeral, the children of the second room all need to keep filial piety, and the people in this room have less contact with the ancestral house.

Especially Sheng Weirao and Sheng Weixing from the Bai family, even if they return to bed after leaving Daxiang, they can't come over...... Of course, this is not because they have an opinion on the big room or the third room or the old lady Sheng, but mainly because of the death of the Bai family at that time, Sheng Weirao and the old lady Ming completely tore their faces.

Fortunately, Mrs. Ming is not the kind of person who is narrow-minded and even holds grudges against her relatives, although she has not seen her for three years, she still thinks about these grandchildren. Therefore, when he went north to Chang'an with Mrs. Sheng before, he forcibly brought Sheng Weirao over.

In fact, at that time, Mrs. Ming also wanted to take Sheng Weixing with her, after all, Sheng Weixing was three years younger than Sheng Weiqiao, and she was also thirteen this year.

If Sheng Weirao marries in Chang'an, he can also personally send his sister out of the cabinet.

Anyway, they were all their own boats and their own people along the way, and it didn't matter how many people there were.

But the old lady thought so hard for the sisters and brothers, but it made the sisters and brothers who quickly matured after the Bai family went feel embarrassed, so Sheng Weixing resolutely refused to go north.

At this time, Sheng Weixing came over, and there was no need for Feng Shi to remind him, Sheng Weiqiao actually knew his intention.

After a while, the sixth son of the Sheng family walked in and greeted him with some sneer.

"Sit down!" Feng Shi beckoned to him, and instructed his subordinates, "Bring the gushing melons and fruits and black plum drinks, and the black plum drinks will relieve the heat on hot days...... Go and wring the handkerchief again, and wipe the sweat from this child's face!"

Taking advantage of this situation, Sheng Weiqiao looked at Sheng Weixing carefully, speaking of which, before she went north to Chang'an last year, although she went to the second room to say goodbye, she mainly went to see Sheng Weirao at that time, and Sheng Weixing happened to be not in the house at that time, so she didn't take a look.

In this way, their cousin and brother have not seen each other for more than a year.

Sheng Weixing is a little taller than last year, I don't know if it's because of this, but he looks a lot thinner, his biological mother Bai Shi, who married into Sheng Mansion by virtue of beauty and means, of course his appearance is not bad.

Even after the Bai family went, I didn't know if it was my sister's admonition, or if there was actually no environment for him to show off, the whole person seemed a lot more wooden, and people at this age were a little dull.

Seeing Feng's warm reception at this time, he was a little nervous, stammered a few words, then looked at Sheng Weiqiao, and said, "Third sister, fourth sister has a little time to go north......"

"Don't worry, the fourth sister is very good!" Sheng Weiqiao hurriedly said, "Have you seen the letter written by my grandfather?" The fourth sister is now also the county lord, and her title is 'Fuchang', we often go in and out of the palace, and the queen mother and queen mother have met these nobles more than once!"

When Sheng Weixing heard this, he showed a clear look of joy and said, "So it's true? Uncle and aunt sent someone to us to talk about it before, but we all felt that it was impossible to ...... after hearing it."

"What's impossible about this?" Feng Shi replied with a smile, "Rao'er's child has always been well-behaved and sensible, and it is reasonable to be appreciated by the nobles of the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother. You're just so happy that you can't believe it?"

In fact, having said that, everyone knows in their hearts why the second room can't believe it, in the final analysis, it is Sheng Weirao's early experience, most of the people who know in the know subconsciously look down on her a few points, and naturally feel that the imperial court canonized Sheng Weiqiao, Sheng Weiwei and even Gongsun Yingjiang, who is not related to the Sheng family, as the county lord, how can even Sheng Weirao have a share?

"I don't know if the fourth sister didn't come back with the third sister this time, how long will she stay in Chang'an?" Sheng Weixing thought of this, and his joy for his sister to be crowned the county lord suddenly faded a few layers, and he asked half expectantly and half nervously, "Do you have a return date?"

After saying this, without waiting for Sheng Weiqiao to answer, he said in disguise, "I have never been separated from the fourth sister for so long, and I am a little worried about her in my heart." ”

Sheng Weiqiao heard that what he really wanted to ask was actually Sheng Weirao's marriage, did he have any eyebrows?

"I don't know about that. It's just that although Sheng Weiqiao also hopes that Sheng Weirao can find a reliable and open-minded husband in Chang'an, Sheng Weirao's marriage, at least before she comes back, has not been skimmed, and there is no good news for Sheng Weiliang at this moment.

I had to say truthfully, "When I left Chang'an, my grandfather didn't say the exact date of return. ”

There is no mention of Sheng Weirao's marriage, which is obviously gone.

Sheng Weixing suddenly showed a look of disappointment.

"But it's hard for my grandfather to go far away, and he also takes his grandmother with him, I think the two of them are old, it's inconvenient to go out, and they go to Chang'an now, why do they have to stay for a few more days?" Sheng Weiqiao comforted euphemistically, "Besides, the second brother and the fourth sister have also made a lot of friends in Chang'an these days, but they are not lonely." ”

This means that there is still hope for Sheng Weirao's marriage?

Sheng Weixing didn't know if his cousin said this purely to comfort himself, but this made him feel a little better.

In fact, when Mrs. Ming wanted to take Sheng Weirao to the north, Sheng Weirao didn't want to go, because she didn't have any hope for her marriage.

But it was Sheng Weixing's bitter words and even tears of persuasion until she nodded, he didn't want his sister to marry in Nanfeng County or nearby, it was not that he was afraid that Sheng Weirao's reputation would tire him, mainly because he had heard Sheng Weirao's words in private in the past few years, and he didn't want his sister to live in such an environment in the future.

"But if my sister marries Chang'an, she will be far away from the protection of the family. Sheng Weixing thought silently when he left this day, "I still have to work harder to study...... In the future, I will be like a big brother...... It's like the king of Mizhen County, all the way to Chang'an, when the time comes, my sister and brother will be reunited, and I can support my sister while staying away from these ups and downs here!"

…… The mother and daughter who stayed in Chengchuntai were discussing: "The sixth brother looks even more indifferent to last year now, isn't he doing well in the second room?"

Feng Shi sighed and said, "Your second aunt is gone, your second uncle hasn't married until now, and De'er hasn't married! Who do you say is in charge of the backyard of the second room now?"

"What about the two aunts?" Sheng Weiqiao said in surprise, "Have they been grinding the sixth brother?"

Although it is said that the second room has been separated, but it is also in the county town, with the power of the Sheng family in Nanfeng County, the movement of the second room, what do you want to know here and can't be inquired about?

If Ruoliu and Fuyan's concubines dared to do something to their non-biological sons-in-law, Old Lady Sheng, Old Lady Ming, and Sheng Lanci and his wife, it would be impossible for anyone to allow them.

"It's not about grinding. Feng said, "First, it is definitely not as comfortable and comfortable as when your second aunt was there, and second, you also know that your second aunt still had Rao'er...... So in the past two years, Xing'er has been studying at home, with neither companions nor friends. De'er is a kind-hearted person, and because of Rao'er, she still has a sense of regret for their sister and brother. But De'er was originally not good at words, and the two brothers were together, and they couldn't say two words all day, didn't they become more and more silent?"

After thinking about it, he said, "Because De'er is the eldest son of the second house after all, your grandfather has spoken before, asking your second uncle to gradually hand over the property to him to take care of." So when De'er was in Nanfeng County, he didn't have much time to stay in the house, he ran here and there, and had to deal with many stewards, shopkeepers, and village heads. ”

"As for the line...... I think he's mainly locked up at home, and he's too ruthless!

In this case, the Feng family has no good way, because what Sheng Weixing lacks is a companion who seems to be about the same age as him, with the Sheng family's powerful position in Nanfeng County, the Feng family can get him such a group of followers, but there is definitely no sincerity in this way, and his character is also very questionable.

Feng himself has his own daughter to take care of, as the eldest daughter-in-law still takes care of the huge Sheng Mansion, and at the moment she is pregnant and waiting to give birth, even if she cares about her nephew, it is impossible to keep an eye on it all the time.

When the time comes, don't make a mistake in the situation, and bring Sheng Weixing, who is just taciturn now, to the devastation, I am afraid that the inside and outside will not think that her eldest aunt is good to her nephew, but suspect that she deliberately taught Bai's children to be abolished, such a thankless thing, where is Feng willing to do it?

Therefore, Feng Shi could only spread his hands helplessly at the moment, "I can only hope that this kid's hard work will be rewarded, and he will have fame in the future, and he will have more contacts with his peers, so he should be fine...... I heard the gentleman at home say that although his qualifications are only average, he is willing to work hard, and if he continues like this, the title of the gold list is not easy to say, but Xiucai should not be a big problem. He is still young, and anything is possible. ”

In the end, the Sheng family is one of the three powerful families in Nanfeng County, and the relationship with the government is good...... In the face of these things, during the scientific expedition, even if the officials in charge did not deliberately release water to the children of the Sheng family, at least they would not deliberately fall down.

When the mother and daughter were talking about family affairs, Rong Sleeping Crane and his party were on their way to Lingxi Mountain.

They were actually not as difficult as Sheng Weiqiao thought, mainly because they all gave up riding horses and chose carriages.

The glazed carriage has excellent lighting, but because the carriage is full of ice, the shade is as cool as autumn, and it is not in the same season as the scorching heat outside.

The people who made this trip, in addition to the guards and servants, were four magistrates including Rong Sleepy Crane, Li Shengxu, and the county guard, as well as Sheng Lanzi.

However, in the carriage at this time, only Rong Sleeping Crane, Li Shengxu County Shou and Sheng Lanzi were playing together.

This is something that can't be helped, the county guard and others are of course going to welcome the county king and the marquis, the problem is that this county king is the concubine of the king of Gaomi, and this kind of thing is a court fight, until the final situation is revealed, no one dares to pack the ticket. And these officials of Nanfeng County did not have the idea of taking risks, so they naturally stayed away from Rong Sleeping Crane.

If it weren't for the presence of a neutral and well-fed Yichun Marquis, the county guards would not even have invited them to travel.

So I didn't dare to be alone with Rong Sleeping Crane at this time, for fear of being misunderstood and taking refuge in King Gaomi in private, and then King Gaomi would fall in the future and be unlucky.

But they can't afford to neglect the identity of Rong Sleeping Crane, so they can't flatter Li Shengxu in a swarm and ignore him as a county king, right?

Then it can only be allowed to let Rong Sleeping Crane and Li Shengxu be together, due to the limited place for the carriage, Rong Sleeping Crane insisted on refusing to let Sheng Lanzi stay in the corner on the grounds that he had received the favor of the Sheng family, and there was only one vacant seat left, which was naturally the highest official county guard.

After playing a few words, the delicate and frail Li Shengxu was a little tired, so he shouted to stop, asked the little guy on his side to help pinch his shoulders, and closed his eyes by leaning on the car to recuperate, and Sheng Lanzi was afraid that at this moment, which of the three in the carriage was higher than his own status, and he didn't dare to make a sound.

Gradually, the county guard chatted with Rong Sleeping Crane, and the two of them were not afraid of having nothing to say, because just the discussion of classics, scriptures, and poems was enough to talk for a few days and nights.

But Rong Sleeping Crane was talking to the county guard, and suddenly the conversation changed, and he asked without warning: "Lord Luo, since General Zhou swept across the sea back then, Yu Xi has been very resurgent recently, I don't know what your lordship thinks about this?"
