So all the ladies agreed: "It's time for a serious overhaul." ”

Maybe with such a repair, the Qiu family will have their fortunes, and it is unknown if they are rich and prosperous again.

Song smiled again: "My lord said, this repair cost is naturally from the public, but a few masters in the clan mentioned yì, this time not only the male heirs of the Qiu family can donate silver to show filial piety, but also the female relatives of the family can also donate some silver taels, how much is not restricted, and then the name will be included in the book and passed on to future generations." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be moved when they heard this, who didn't have some dowry in their hands, as a daughter-in-law, they could leave their name for future generations, and it was worth some silver.

Seeing everyone's expressions, the smile on Song's face became brighter and brighter, and said: "Not only that, if there is a lot of donations, after the renovation is renewed, you will have to kowtow to the ancestors in the ancestral hall, this is the real glory." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be excited when they heard this, and the female dependents of the Qiu clan only had one chance to enter the ancestral hall in their lives.

The daughter-in-law who marries in will have a chance to kowtow to the ancestor at the ancestral hall, indicating that if she has the approval of the ancestor, she can be born as a person of the Qiu family and die as a ghost of the Qiu family. In the future, he was given an edict by the imperial court, and he only kowtowed to his ancestors outside.

Of course, the stepfamily didn't even have this only chance, and this was also to defend the noble status of the Yuan wife.

As for the daughters of the Qiu family, they can only enter the ancestral hall and receive the teachings of the ancestral religion when they are about to get married.

In order to reflect the authentic dignity of the lineage, the people who were originally from the distant branches of the side line and the concubines from the lineage were not qualified to kowtow to the ancestral hall.

It's just that today is not what it used to be, the descendants of the Qiu family who were officials and eunuchs back then, when they grabbed a handful, where would they see most of the side branches that were not in the climate?

But in this Great Chu Dynasty, the Qiu family has some signs of decay, and it urgently needs the support of capable descendants.

Therefore, the daughter-in-law and daughter of the Qiu family who live in Shunyang City are also fortunate to enter the ancestral hall once.

It is those concubines, with the power of the Qiu family, generally not better than the concubines to marry, but most of them are going to marry scholars, who can say who can say the life experience, and they may not be able to soar in the future, so they are also allowed to enter the ancestral hall to listen to the training before marriage.

Therefore, being able to enter the ancestral hall for the second time is really an unparalleled honor for the Qiu family's daughters.

It's just that this depends on the size of the purse, and everyone thought about it in their hearts, and their eyes quietly looked at Yu's: This is the rich man who really takes out a big deal.

Yu's face was calm, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he drank his tea calmly.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Yu Shi smiled and said, "This is indeed a rare opportunity. ”

Seeing Yu's attitude, everyone couldn't understand what she was planning, and the smile on Song's face only paused slightly, and then smiled and talked about other things, and everyone casually agreed, and this matter was put aside for the time being.

After saying some homely words, it was time for lunch, not to mention the delicious food, after the meal, everyone drank tea, Yu Shi agreed with everyone to go to her house tomorrow to enjoy the spring and play.

Because it is the meaning of accompaniment, after the ladies are polite, they have to put down the mundane affairs in the house and respond to the appointment, so they all say goodbye and leave.

However, Mrs. Zhu found an excuse to stay in Qiu Mansion for a while, and everyone didn't care.

Song sent off the guests, and walked to the main room with Mrs. Zhu, Qiu Yuqing and Qiu Yufeng talked freely in the courtyard.

Mrs. Zhu smiled and said: "Look at today's trouble, it's all my sister's, and I ask Sister Song not to blame." ”

When Song heard this, he waved his hand and smiled: "I know that you are the most straightforward and fast-talking, can you still take care of this idea after all these years of being a concubine? ”

Mrs. Zhu breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Sister Song is the most generous person, and my sister is really right." However, the Yu family always has a few dollars in his hand, and he always doesn't take his sister to heart, and his sister is complaining about his sister. ”

When the Song family heard this, there was coldness in their eyes, and they said lightly: "I was born in a family of eunuchs, and my makeup is not thin, and marrying into the Qiu family is also a good match, and it is not a high climb." And since marrying into the Qiu family, filial piety, harmony, love for the younger generations, and act fairly, for so many years, no one has been able to say a word about me, and now I am the wife of the imperial court. I don't know why Yu's businesswoman, why dare she despise me? You see that she is not pleasing to the eye, it is your business, don't pull people indiscriminately. ”

Mrs. Zhu's old face turned red, and she said for a long time: "It's me who is confused." Sister acts as a person, who doesn't praise and who doesn't praise, everyone only has reverence, then Yu Shi doesn't dare to disrespect his sister, but Ruyi's girl is too ignorant of the rules, our own family knows that this is Yu's will not teach her daughter, which makes outsiders see it, but it is to discredit Qiu's daughter. ”

Song's face softened, and he chuckled: "She is a child after all, since we are elders, we naturally have to tolerate one or two, as for outside, as long as we don't provoke her, I think she is still very measured." The other girls in our family, as long as they are humble and polite in their bones, they will be recognized by reasonable people, are they afraid of any tiredness?"

Mrs. Zhu nodded hurriedly and said, "What Sister Song said is true." At the end, he begged again: "I have something to do tomorrow, so I will go, and then I will ask Sister Song to help me play a round." ”

There is a farce of Yu's entry today, Mrs. Zhu is embarrassed to enter Yu's door tomorrow, and she doesn't want to be cheeky.

Song nodded knowingly and said, "This thing is easy to say, but how did you plan it?"

Mrs. Zhu was stunned by the question, and Song said: "They are all close relatives, and there is no deep hatred, but for a while, they can take a step back from each other, and they can act as if nothing happened." If you remember this hatred, you will be estranged from the Yu family since then, and if you don't go, if you still want to have contacts, you are embarrassed to go over, but Yufeng must go. Think about it. ”

Mrs. Zhu was dazzled by Yu's brilliance at that time, and she was jealous, and she also had the intention of currying favor with the Song family, so she was quick for a while, and she didn't want to make enemies with Yu's God of Wealth, so she said busily: "Then I will send Yufeng over early tomorrow morning, and ask my sister and Sister Qing to take care of one or two." ”

Song smiled: "You don't need to say it, it's natural." ”

Mrs. Zhu Song drank tea by herself, knowing that she should go, she hurriedly got up and said, "I think the car is cleaned up, and my sister will leave first." ”

Song didn't get up, just nodded and smiled: "When you get older, this body can't stand it, please forgive me for being rude, let Qing'er and the steward send your mother and daughter." ”

Mrs. Zhu hurriedly said: "Sister Song is going to rest quickly, I also come and go often, so I don't need to send it." ”

Song Shi said repeatedly: "How can this work. ”

In the end, it was the housekeeper in the Qiu Mansion who sent it out, and as soon as the carriage drove out of the Qiu Mansion, Qiu Yufeng said to his mother angrily: "The horse's fart slapped on the horse's hooves." Let's live our lives, isn't it good to get along on an equal footing, we have to meet the horse, and we are not ashamed. ”
