Chapter 260: The Yuan Family

Seeing this, Lu Shuo couldn't help laughing, and his mood became better and better. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After a brief rest, a few people got up again and went on the road, and walked for about half an hour, and saw a five-gate and six-pillar stone archway standing in front of them from a distance.

This stone archway is built very tall, made of a whole piece of white stone, carved with exquisite pattern reliefs, looking solemn and solemn, but does not give people a heavy sense of majesty.

Lu Shuo came to the front and saw the words "University Scholar" engraved in the center of the archway at a glance.

These three words are upright and strong, and the carving is strong, and it is extraordinary at a glance.

Lu Shuo stopped, pointed to the archway with his finger and asked the white steward: "I heard that this stone archway was specially commended by the saint when my grandfather returned to his hometown to open the academy.

"Exactly!" the white steward smiled, "The old man of the in-laws won this honor at a young age, and he really envied many people......

Lu Shuo had long known that his grandfather Yuan Zhongdao was a legendary figure, but he didn't feel much at this time.

On the contrary, it was the words on the archway that aroused his great interest.

It seems that Emperor Hui Chong is also a famous calligrapher!

Because the time was still early, Lu Shuo and the others were not in a hurry, so they stood in front of the archway for a while, not only to rest their feet, but also to enjoy the intricate carvings on the building, but to kill two birds with one stone.

However, they didn't stand for long, just as Lu Shuo lifted the hem and was about to continue to rush to the academy, several people dressed as small servants suddenly came out from the right rear of the archway, and went straight to Lu Shuo.

Presumably my grandfather arranged for me to pick them up!

When Lu Shuo saw these people, he immediately had some ideas in his heart.

Really.

"Childe, but is Lu Shuo, the eldest son of the second room of the Jingguo Mansion?"

The leading little guy stopped in front of Lu Shuo, smiled kindly, and asked softly.

Lu Shuo nodded, and said, "It's down." ”

"The grandfather heard that the son arrived today, and arranged for the small one to wait here early in the morning, and now that it has finally arrived, the son will invite the small one to come!"

Lu Shuo nodded, and was just about to pick up the bookcase, but was dissuaded by this little guy's words.

“… Today's first family ceremony, tomorrow's school ceremony can be done, this is the grandfather's special instructions before coming..."

As soon as he said this, the first two little guys stepped forward and respectfully took the bookcase from Lu Shuo's hand.

Seeing this, Lu Shuo did not refuse, handed over the bookcase in a good manner, and walked to the right side of the academy with the little girl in front of him.

After getting off the avenue, I walked to the right along the three bluestone paved paths for a while, and then turned around a dense forest that pulled out new greenery, and the Yuan Mansion was close in front of me.

"This mansion is built in a strange way!"

When Lu Shuo saw the building in front of him, he couldn't help but admire.

The houses are built in a decent way, and there is nothing special about them.

The wonderful thing is that the combination of this building and the surrounding walls and other things, on the whole, there is a poetic sense of leisure and pastoral, which is pleasing to the eye, and makes people feel relieved.

The little guy who led the way explained with a smile.

“… This was built by the master himself after he returned to Taoshan, saying that he wanted to imitate Mr. Jingjie to enjoy the countryside..."

Lu Shuo nodded, although Yuan Zhongdao's official position is not obvious, he has always been famous, Lu Shuo has admired him for a long time, thinking that he will see him later, and he can't help but feel nervous and happy in his heart.

Lu Shuo watched as he walked, sighing again and again all the way, and when he followed the little guy to the Yimen, he walked forward without squinting.

Lu Shuo was brought in by the maid who came to answer him, and the white steward, Changfeng and his wife, and a few little servants were led by the little servants of the Yuan Mansion to Lu Shuo's residence first.

Lu Shuo straightened his waist and walked in without squinting, and as soon as he arrived at the weeping flower gate in the main courtyard, he saw two women and several subordinates coming over.

Both women were in their thirties and had beautiful faces.

Only one of the eyebrows was sad and sad, and he was only wearing plain clothes, while the other was square and elegant, and there was a bit of color between his eyebrows.

Seeing Lu Shuo coming over, the woman behind her softened her face and said with a smile: "This is Brother Shuo, you have a blessed face, and the old lady will be happy when she sees it in a while." ”

The plain-clothed woman only smiled when she heard this, but did not say anything.

"The eldest aunt, the second aunt. ”

As soon as he saw the words and deeds of these two people, Lu Shuo immediately identified the identities of the two of them, and Shi Li said to the two separately.

Grandfather Yuan Zhongdao had a great name in his life, did not accept a concubine, and had three sons and a daughter, all of whom were born to the He family.

The eldest son, Yuan Tong, was born frail and sickly, and died ten years ago, leaving only a son and a daughter under his knees.

A son is twenty-three years old, named Yuan Wenxin, and the poison in his mother's womb is as weak as his father.

Since coming to this examination room, it is the most exciting, so although he is full of talent, he did not respond, and now he has only won the fame of a showman.

Even so, no one dared to underestimate this troubled and sickly teenager! Just because he was as famous as his grandfather Yuan Zhongdao and uncle Yuan Da at a young age, he was known as the "Three Masters of the Yuan Sect." This shows the depth of his knowledge.

Yuan Wenxin is now married and has children, and now he continues to study with Yuan Zhongdao, preparing to inherit his grandfather's mantle and teach students in the future.

A daughter is a widow, named Yuan Wenqin, who is just ten years old, the same age as Lu Shuo.

Without a pillar and raising a pair of orphans and weak girls, there is no need to guess that this plain-clothed woman with a sad face is the eldest aunt Zhong.

The second son, Yuan Da, was born in the two lists, but like his father Yuan Zhongdao, he left early and returned to Taoshan Academy to study and teach, and now he is also full of peach and plums.

When Yuan Da was not in the first place, the Yang family had already married, and he came with the idea of being an official wife, but who expected that Yuan Da would be at home at a young age, and he would live in this small peach mountain to teach and educate people, and the Yang family really couldn't get used to it, so the husband and wife were quite disgraceful, and they were not harmonious.

Despite this, Yuan Zhongdao stipulated that men in the Yuan family were not allowed to take concubines before they were over forty, so although the husband and wife hated each other, the two sons and one daughter under their knees were all concubines.

The eldest son, Yuan Wenfang, is twenty-one years old, and is now a fellow in Bozhou.

The second son and the eldest daughter are twins, both seventeen years old.

The second son, Yuan Wentao, has won the fame and is still studying in Taoshan Academy, preparing for the exam.

The eldest daughter had married into his mother's maiden family, the Yang family, two years earlier.

The Yang family gave birth to two sons and a daughter, which is equivalent to a great hero for the Yuan family, which has no heirs.

Therefore, according to what the Yuan family revealed before Lu Shuo came, although the Yang family is not obedient to her husband, she loves to pinch the tip and be strong, and there are many provocations between Yu and the concubine, and the second elder of the Yuan family is quite tolerant and happy with her.

The third son, Yuan Zheng, needless to say, is now working outside, and he is the only one in this generation who is out of office, his two sons and one daughter, except for the eldest son Yuan Wenji, Lu Shuo is all familiar with him.
