Chapter 9 The Good of the Family

It's good that Mrs. Sun didn't mention it, but at this mention, the smile on Song's face changed to sorrow.

The Song family let out a long sigh and said, "I'm afraid this family business will not be done." ”

Hearing this, Yu couldn't help but look at Song in surprise.

In this Fenglin County, the Fang family and the Qiu family are also about the same family, the difference is that the Qiu family is an old family, and since the establishment of Great Chu, it has been running from the famous family all the way to the ordinary eunuch house.

Fang's family is from the small eunuch step by step to the Wang clan, today's head of the family Fang Jin is talented, with the champion talent to be appreciated by the first emperor, and then into the court to discuss politics, and because of the courage to speak out, by the first emperor's favor.

Since the two Qiu Fang families are from the same place, they often have contacts, and they can be regarded as good families, so it is logical for them to get married.

It's just that the Qiu family has not decayed that day, and Fang Jin has not yet won the champion, but Fang Jin's father, Mrs. Fang, wants to take advantage of the momentum of the Qiu family to get married to this family business, and Mrs. Qiu also wants to have one more helper, so he immediately agreed to the Mandarin Alliance.

Unfortunately, there were no men and women among the children of the two families, so they had to order this doll for their grandchildren.

Until now, the feng shui has taken turns, the Qiu family has fallen, and the Fang family has prospered.

Because Fang Jin was the favored minister of the first emperor, most of the children in his clan were taken care of by him, but all those who had meritorious fame entered the court and became officials, and they became more and more powerful.

Later, the first emperor died, and Fang Jin, as the minister of Tuogu, had to give the little emperor a little face, which became more and more glorious.

So, now it's the Qiu family who is rushing to get married.

Fortunately, Fang Jin is a filial son, although the two old ladies have passed away, they still recognize this family business, but the Fang family is not the little eunuch of the past, they are much richer, and their vision is naturally high

So Qiu Rucheng had to study hard until he finally won the promotion last year.

Qiu Jing knew that with his son's age and knowledge, this person was a little reluctant, so he intended to let his son dive into learning for a few years, so that he could have a good ranking in the future palace examination.

In fact, Qiu Jing still has an idea in his heart that is not for outsiders: in a few years, it will happen to be the little emperor's pro-government, if his son gets the emperor's green eye, he may not be another party in the future.

Therefore, Qiu Rucheng did not participate in this year's Spring Festival, and the next palace examination will not be until three years later.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is also a great thing for a teenager to lift people, and they also think that it is a very face-saving thing to have a young and promising uncle.

But in the eyes of the Fang family, they feel that it is not enough: the wealth of the Qiu family is not as good as before, although Qiu Rucheng can recommend officials from others, but such a family must be some officials who are not in the stream, and I am afraid that the career will not be smooth in the future, but if it is a Jinshi and the first, it will take at least another three years or even longer, and I don't know if the Miss Fang family can afford to wait.

Song concealed his son's dilemma, and sighed: "Originally, his father planned to let Cheng'er not have to rush to the palace examination, but to study for a few years to make some mentors and friends, temper and precipitate his knowledge, so that his career will go more smoothly in the future." In addition, Cheng'er is a lot older, and it is time to start a family, and become a family with responsibilities on their shoulders, so that people can concentrate on learning more steadily. But now it seems that the Fang family has other ideas, and Cheng'er doesn't want to delay other girls, for this matter, I am really sad, for the sake of the friendship between the two families, we have to bear this charge of unfilial piety. ”

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel heavy in their hearts, the Qiu family is indeed not as good as before, for decades, others rushed to the Qiu family to marry their daughters, and now the Qiu family doesn't talk about it.

There are also people who are angry at the people in the crack of the Fang family's door, and bluntly say that it is just like this, anyway, Brother Cheng is young and talented, and he is a man, so he can afford it, so he just depends on how the Fang family goes to the Qiu Mansion to be soft.

Mrs. Sun shook her head and said: "Marriage is good for two families, not for grudges, if the two families really consume like this, they will live up to the friendship of the two old ladies in vain." The Fang family may not mean this, otherwise her daughter would not have waited until now, and her daughter is indeed very good, Sister Song should ask someone who can talk on both sides to ask. ”

Mrs. Zhu obviously couldn't let go of the quarrel between her mother and daughter with the Yu family, so she took advantage of the topic at this time and snorted coldly: "What kind of good daughter can such a rich and bully family raise?" A generation of good daughters-in-law, three generations of good descendants, Sister Song is not smart and confused for a while, marrying such a rich and noble family, but wronged Brother Cheng in vain. ”

As if she hadn't heard Mrs. Zhu's voice, Yu Shi still drank the tea indifferently, she did not participate in this conversation, because she was a little unsure of Song's intention to do so.

The benefits of marrying the Fang family to Qiu Jing's family are immeasurable.

Fang Jin, as a celebrity around the former emperor, has also managed a lot of contacts over the years, although the new emperor ascended the throne to avoid the edge of Liu's relatives, his power is still not to be underestimated.

If Qiu Jing can marry the Fang family, he will definitely be able to take advantage of Fang's progress and go further in his career.

Qiu Rucheng was a young man, and he must participate in the palace examination in the future to become a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, with the support of his father-in-law and his biological father, the future is unlimited.

Qiu Rucheng's background is not bad, he is talented, and he is still a young newcomer, and compared with the children of the capital family, he is not inferior.

Those children of the family have too many rich and noble days, most of them are rich and honorable, fighting cocks and walking dogs, but if they really think about their daughters, they will not ruin this family lightly.

Therefore, no matter how high the Fang family's vision is, unless they marry the royal family, they will not skip Qiu Rucheng lightly.

Yu Shi felt that this matter was strange, and on the basis of not understanding the situation, it was better to remain silent, so as not to say too much and make more mistakes.

As the saying goes, "I'd rather demolish ten temples than destroy a family", although the ladies in the house persuaded the Song family to explore the Fang family again, they couldn't help but guess in their hearts: The Fang family is afraid that they don't want to marry this family, although they have not performed three books and six rituals, but because of the words of the two old ladies, they don't want to bear the infamy, so they make it difficult for Qiu Rucheng in many ways.

The eldest grandson of the dignified Qiu family, who is young and a good person, is still looked down upon by the Fang family, and his own son does not expect to marry the daughter of a famous family.

In this sluggish atmosphere, Qiu Yuqing walked over with the young ladies, and Song and the others were busy smiling.

It is not difficult for the ladies to see that the smiles on the faces of Qiu Yuqing and the others are reluctant, just because they are tired of playing, and secondly, they are all pampered daughters in the family, and there will inevitably be some friction when playing together, and if you want to ask, you have to carry people.

Therefore, after smiling and asking a few words about the scenery in the garden, Song asked the little girls to play and rest in the room, and they were taken care of.

After a few words of gossip, Song said with a smile: "A few days ago, my lord said that our Qiu clan ancestral hall has always been overhauled for thirty years and fifteen years for minor repairs. ”

The ladies couldn't help nodding and sighing, time flies so fast, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye.

I still remember fifteen years ago, after the overhaul of the Qiu family's ancestral hall, although they could not enter the ancestral hall lightly, but they could see its grandeur and magnificence outside, and they could guess how solemn and exquisite it was inside, which was the pride of all the Qiu family, and they were naturally honored as the daughters-in-law of the Qiu family.

Moreover, all the Qiu family members are convinced that the ancestors of the Qiu family can feel their filial piety, and they will surely bless their descendants to be rich and prosperous again.

It's a pity that soon the war came, the Qiu clan ancestral hall was also damaged, and then fortunately the first emperor was wise, and the people were able to live a peaceful life again, but for various reasons, the ancestral hall in the next few years, only intermittently repaired a few times, and now it is becoming more and more decadent, and there is no complaint that the Qiu family is declining more and more.
