Chapter 288: Zi Dynasty
Mother Liu followed behind Shen, the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, knowing that this was actually a sign of her wife's happiness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Now that the situation in Xiyin is turbulent, the Liang family and the Shen family are constantly doing things one after another, and the burden on the Shen family is really not light, and if this situation happened before, it is really hard to say what the result will be.
After all, if it was before, it would never be possible for the lady and the third lady to get along so well, and now the lady can let the fourth master stay in the Zhendong General's Mansion, stay in a place where no lady can see, and come to the Shen Mansion to serve the old lady without any scruples, and the role played by the third lady is not ordinary, and even cannot be ignored at all.
Because if it weren't for Liang Cheng, then Liu's mother estimated that Shen would never believe anyone so unscrupulously.
If it goes too far, even Liang Sixuan and Shen are not at ease.
Liang Sixuan, he is a virtuous minister, a good minister, a loyal minister, and even it can be said that he is the most filial son, but as for whether he is a qualified father, then the Shen family doesn't want to say anything.
At least at the moment when Xiyin is in turmoil, the Shen family knows that the first place his heart will be placed is the court.
Therefore, Liu's mother knows that in fact, at present, the person who shares a big burden for the Shen family is Liang Cheng.
It was because of her that the Shen family was able to stabilize the big rear that had always made her a little constrained and unrelieved, so that no matter what, as long as she left her, she felt that there was nowhere to put her young son, and finally handed it over to Liang Cheng with peace of mind.
It was precisely because of Liang Yuan's existence that the Shen family was able to breathe a little sigh of relief when the huge turbulent waves hit one after another, so that he could stop and rest.
And all of this, if it was really put in the past, then Liu's mother would never dare to imagine it.
After all, even if you don't talk about the cold relationship between Shen and Liang Cheng before, even if it is only about Liang Ming's attitude towards Liang Yong, then it is impossible for Shen to hand Liang Yong into Liang Yong's hands.
The peace of all this now, it can really be regarded as hard to come by.
Although Liu's mother gradually became the housekeeper of the Shen family after Shen's mother's incident.
But in fact, Liu's mother has been with Shen's side for a long time, and Liu's mother is no stranger to the things between Shen and Liang Cheng, a mother and daughter.
In the Zhendong General's Mansion, Liu's mother is also an old man.
Therefore, when she saw that Shen's family, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong's mother and son could get along like this, Liu's mother was deeply touched.
But this feeling, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong obviously couldn't feel it now, otherwise the two of them, one big and one small, would not have followed Shen to the inner courtyard while still grimacing at each other.
And it was because of the obvious improvement in Old Madam Shen's condition at this time, and the atmosphere in Shen's mansion gradually became clearer, otherwise how could Liang Cheng and Liang Yong dare to mess around so casually.
"Moke, Yong'er!"
But just when Liang Cheng and Liang Yong were frowning each other, a call suddenly came from the front, and the two of them, one big and one small, were immediately stunned.
"Second uncle." But after seeing that the person who called them was Shen Yunlang, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong immediately ran over with a smile, and after bowing obediently, the two surrounded Shen Yunlang one left and one right.
"Why are you coming over now, didn't you just hear from the eldest brother two days ago that you were preparing to compile a book with the second prince."
Shen was also happy to see Shen Yunlang here.
But when he thought of the recent matter of compiling books and revising history with the second prince Qi Cheng, and the people who were so busy with the group, the question that would appear here at this time, the Shen family was a little surprised.
"It is a great pleasure in life to study and write with people who are knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but if the other party is just a person with no ink on his chest, his experience is a little sad."
Shen Yunlang's words were extremely unkind, and he directly classified Qi Cheng as a person who had no ink.
But this may have been said before, but how can it be said so nakedly now.
You must know that after the death of Emperor Wen and Qi Huai has become the abolished prince, Qi Chengke is the rightful heir to the first throne.
Although it is now due to the stalemate of the war with Houshu outside Shanhaiguan, it should have been delayed seven days after Emperor Wen's death, Qi Cheng's new emperor's letter and announcement to the world were postponed.
But despite this, at this time, the second prince Qi Cheng and the second princess Yang had already entered the East Palace, and even Liang Cheng knew that now Concubine Meng had already prepared the enthronement ceremony of the second prince Qi Cheng in the Ministry of Rites.
Then this also means that there is no need to wait long at all, and Qi Cheng will become the new emperor of this country.
Under such a premise, Shen Yunlang actually said so arrogantly and directly? Liang Cheng no longer knows whether to say that her second uncle has no heart or is too open-minded.
Frank can be said to be open-mouthed, although the Shen family is still rich and noble, but they can't take the initiative to fight with the new emperor like this, I don't know if Qi Cheng didn't like his second uncle like this, so he would rather let go of such a big talent, and instead went to Tai Academy to find some young handsome talents who know the times and are obedient.
"Second brother, why are you like this again, have you forgotten what you promised your mother yesterday?"
And the person who obviously thinks the same thing as Liang Cheng is the Shen family, and there are some things that Liang Cheng can't say, but the Shen family is the one who can speak freely, so not long after Shen Yunlang's words fell, Shen said to him with a frown.
"Of course I remember."
But it was only after the Shen family mentioned Old Madam Shen that Shen Yunlang, who was still an extremely sad appearance of a dashing literati, suddenly fell silent for a moment, and then replied in a deep voice.
"Since you still remember the second brother, it's good."
As soon as Shen Yunlang saw Shen Yunlang's expression, the frowning brows that were still frowning suddenly relaxed, but they formed the opposite situation with Shen Yunlang.
"Mother's disease, second brother, you should also realize that your mother is already an elderly person, even if she has always been very strong, but in fact, my mother is working hard for our failure to be children. Although our brothers and sisters are so unsuccessful, we can't share the worries and worries of our mothers until now, but at least we can no longer drag our mothers back. ”
Shen Shi looked at the stubborn character of the literati in front of her, who had already been a deep-rooted brother, and persuaded him with some bitterness.
And Shen's words also made Shen Yunlang silent for a while.
It wasn't until Liang Cheng and Liang Yong next to him were a little nervous that Shen Yunlang let out a long sigh.
"Mingyue, it's because my brother is not as good as you!"
"Second brother, don't say that."
But unlike Liang Cheng and Liang Yong, the Shen family, who stood in front of Shen Yunlang, has always been extremely calm.
"If you talk about the world, then whether it is the second brother or the eldest brother, I am naturally ashamed of myself, but in the matter of motherhood, Mingyue can naturally still say a sentence or two, second brother, you can just not think I am annoying."
"Seventh sister, can you stop sarcastically mocking me, okay?"
Shen Yunlang looked at Shen Shi a little helplessly and a little funny, and Shen Shi also smiled at this time, but when the two people with such similar and beautiful faces smiled like this, the impact that could be caused to people was not so simple.
Therefore, when Shen and Shen Yunlang looked at each other and smiled at each other, they did not notice that next to them were two frozen stone sculptures, one large and one small, had already appeared.
"Second master, Miss Mingyue, why didn't you come in, the old lady has been reading you all morning since we came together! Hurry in, it's cold outside, second master, you better go and say hello to the old lady first. ”
When they met Shen Yunlang, in fact, Shen and Liang Cheng and their party had already arrived outside Old Madam Shen's courtyard.
Therefore, at this time, when Li's mother had just opened the courtyard door and was about to go out, but immediately saw Shen and Shen Yunlang not far from the door, she hurriedly stepped forward to greet her, and then invited them all into the courtyard.
"Mother Li, don't be polite, Mingyue and I have just arrived, is she still awake now?"
Mother Li has been following Old Madam Shen for many years, whether it is in the Shen Mansion or in front of Shen Yunlang and the Shen family, she has a good weight and status, so no one here dares to really accept her courtesy.
Even when Mother Li suddenly appeared, Shen Yunlang and Shen were the first to turn sideways, and they did not accept Mother Li's rules and great gifts.
"The old lady is still awake, and the old lady's spirit has been very good these days."
"That'll be fine."
Shen Yunlang and the Shen family talked to Mother Li like this, and the people had already put their minds on Mrs. Shen again.
I don't know what my grandmother's condition is now.
Although Shen was optimistic, Liang Cheng was still a little worried.
But due to the current situation, Liang Cheng couldn't speak rashly, so she could only quietly lead Liang Yong to follow behind Shen and Shen Yunlang, and walked towards the courtyard full of cold plums together.
Mrs. Shen loves plum blossoms, so in this courtyard, there are plum trees with a dark fragrance all over the line of sight, among which the red plum trees that are as red as fire and red as blood are about to occupy half of the entire huge courtyard.
It's like fire!
"These red plums are still blooming so well."
"What Miss Cheng said is that the old lady has always liked these red plums the most, so how can we accidentally offer these little ancestors."
Liang Cheng saw the red plum blossoms that were blooming so vigorously and enthusiastically, but they were combined with some familiar pictures in the memory corner, so she suddenly felt a little touched, but she didn't expect to be heard by Li's mother so well, and she would answer so formally, which made Liang Cheng a little embarrassed for a while, she hurriedly said: "Mother Li doesn't pay attention to me, I just saw this red plum, and I was a little shocked." ”
"Where is Miss Ming, but this piece of red plum is not an old slave boasting, even if you look at the whole Jian'an, I'm afraid there is no place that can be better than them." Mother Li laughed loudly.
"Old thing, you like to sell yourself and boast."
But just after Mother Li was confident and just finished speaking, a basin of cold water suddenly poured down.
And in the entire Shen Mansion, it is not Liang Cheng who exaggerates, the person who dares to speak to Mother Li like this can't find the second one at all, except for her grandmother, Liang Cheng really doesn't know who else dares to lose Mother Li's face like this.
"Mother."
"Grandmother!"
The group of people who were in an uproar suddenly turned in the direction where the sound came from, only to see that on a side corridor, Old Madam Shen was actually supported by Si Yan and a few mothers-in-law, and she stood in the cluster of red maple flowers, and only wore a seemingly extremely thin eggplant purple thin cotton crane.
"Si Yan, what's the matter, how can you come out with your mother."
And after seeing the situation of Old Madam Shen clearly, the Shen family was the first to hurriedly walk over.
The slightly frowning eyebrows also fully showed Shen's unhappiness, but before she could walk in front of Mrs. Shen, Si Yan next to her said with a little crying and laughing: "Ouch, my aunt, you don't know the stubborn temper of our ancestors, she said that she wants to come out to breathe, which of us little ones dares to say a 'no', which of us can stop it." ”
Si Yan can be regarded as following Mrs. Shen all the way back to Jian'an, especially from Lanling, so after removing Mother Li, Si Yan can be regarded as the first person in front of Mrs. Shen.
At this time, although he was a little helpless, he was also full of intimacy.
"As fast as your mouth goes, I haven't said anything yet, but you're complaining."
And Old Madam Shen is really good to the people around her, but now she just smiled and glared at Si Yan, so she didn't say anything, but put her hand in Shen's hand that reached out to support her, full of wise eyes, and said to Shen with a gentle smile: "And you, don't always be surprised, my old bones are not old enough to move, why do you even have to ask others when you get out of bed and go out for a walk?" ”
"It's not that you can't say no, but you also heard what Elder Chen said that day, although your condition has indeed improved, but you still have to pay attention to it recently, have you forgotten?"
Shen personally helped Old Madam Shen to walk into the room without pretending to be someone else's hand, and said dissatisfiedly.
And as long as Old Chen is mentioned, Old Madam Shen has nothing to say.
After all, when it comes to who knows her old man's condition best, then Old Chen is naturally one of them, as a doctor that Old Madam Shen has always trusted for so many years, Old Chen's words are still very deterrent to Old Madam Shen.
"Alright, alright, let's go into the house first."
But just when the Shen family still wanted to nag Old Madam Shen a few more words, she couldn't be like today.
Shen Yunlang, who had been smiling and not speaking next to him, finally couldn't resist the rescue gaze cast by Old Madam Shen, so he spoke.
But the Shen family, who knows his mother and brother so well, how can he not know what is going on.
As soon as Shen Yunlang's voice fell, Shen immediately glared at his brother.
But despite this, it was indeed not appropriate for Old Madam Shen to stand outside for too long, so the Shen family took advantage of the situation to help Old Madam Shen into the house first.
"Grandmother!"
And when Mrs. Shen had just been helped by Shen Yunlang and Shen to sit on the kang herself, Liang Cheng and Liang Yong hurriedly gathered around her old man, shouting sweetly.
"Good boys, all good kids." Old Madam Shen was actually smiling when she saw Liang Cheng and Liang Yong behind Shen outside the house, and now she was even more happy when she saw the two people who ran to her side, one big and one small.
Especially when she looked at Liang Cheng, Old Madam Shen touched her head with love and said, "Mo Ke, my child, I have made you suffer because of my grandmother recently." ”
Liang Cheng hurriedly shook her hand and said: "Grandmother, don't say that, this is what Mo Ke should do, and Mo Ke hasn't been able to come to serve you yet, it's because Mo Ke is not good enough." ”
Liang Cheng straightened up, not daring to lean all her weight on her grandmother.
But he still didn't let go of Mrs. Shen's hand in his hand, and kept holding it, which made Mrs. Shen happy.
"Grandmother, Yong'er is here, here, why do you only talk to your sister." And just when Liang Cheng was gently crooked on Mrs. Shen's body, a certain little tiger on the side did not follow.
Although he was extremely sensible and did not dare to shake his grandmother with gravity, his voice was not restrained at all and began to complain loudly, which immediately caused everyone in the room to laugh.
"Just like you little trumpet, who can forget that you can't do it."
Liang Cheng smiled and stretched out her hand and tapped Liang Yong, but Liang Yong immediately took advantage of the situation and fell into the arms of Mrs. Shen, and shouted that Liang Cheng was bullying him, and he must ask Mrs. Shen to help him get angry.
For a while, the atmosphere in the room became cheerful, and everyone was amused by Liang Cheng and Liang Yong, who were about to fight.
Including Old Madam Shen, the room, which was originally full of medicinal smells, was suddenly filled with joyful laughter.
"What's the matter, how happy you are smiling."
But just when everyone was amused by the two people, one big and one small, a person suddenly walked in from outside.
"Second sister-in-law, you're here."
Old Madam Shen was surrounded by Liang Cheng and Liang Yongba, who were laughing, so the Shen family was now sitting on the Qishou Changchun mahogany nine chair quite close to the door, and as soon as she looked up, she could see the Yan family who had just walked in from outside the door.
"I just came back from Xiangguo Temple, and as soon as I got home, I heard that you had arrived."
Yan smiled and greeted Shen who got up and walked over, but Liang Cheng was surprised to find that no matter how they got along, there would still be some awkward and embarrassing two people, but they were very harmonious at this time.
The previous feelings of incompatibility are now impossible to find at all, which really has to be surprising, could it be that something happened during this time that she didn't know?
"Second aunt!"
But surprise is surprise, but Liang Cheng still led Liang Yong, stood up from the kang immediately, and ran to Yan's front to greet her.
"Okay, get up." Yan smiled and pulled Liang Cheng and Liang Yong up, and hugged one in one hand.
"It's strange to say, how Mo Ke and Yong'er are close to Zhuxiang, this is really rare." Old Madam Shen looked at the two people who were tired of being crooked in Yan's arms, and immediately said with some amusement.
But Old Madam Shen said casually, but Liang Cheng was slightly stunned when she heard it.
Also, speaking of which, when Liang Cheng was a child, the Yan family had already left Jian'an and returned to Lanling with Mrs. Shen, and by the time they came back, it had been more than ten years.
In the past ten years, Liang Cheng has never seen Mrs. Shen and the Yan family once, and she is close to Mrs. Shen, which can be said to be because over the years, Mrs. Shen has always been very concerned about her, and the letters have not been broken, but what should the Yan family say?
The Yan family is not like Mrs. Shen, who has never stopped in letters for more than ten years, and has been concerned about the recent situation of Liang Cheng and Liang Yong in letters, so how can these two people, one big and one young, be so close to the Yan family?
"That's not a nephew like an uncle, I don't know who it was back then, but I just saw my second sister-in-law once, and I begged my mother to propose marriage like that, and I was not ashamed."
"Ahem........."
Shen's smiling words instantly made Shen Yunlang blush.
On the contrary, it was Yan's face, although he also blushed slightly, but when Mrs. Shen was smiling, she stretched out her hand and scratched her sister-in-law like a very little daughter, and this action was just seen clearly by Liang Cheng on the side.
Similarly, this action also shocked Liang Cheng is almost stumbling, is this still her mother and second aunt?
Is this still the two people who were very embarrassed and awkward as soon as they met, or are those two people who only stare at each other as long as they meet alone?
Liang Cheng is now in a state of being a little stunned.
"Oh, by the way, Yun Lang, I almost forgot, Zichao is here. When I came back just now, I saw him outside the house, and when I asked, I realized that you ordered him to come over today, right? ”
Zi Chao? Liang Cheng, who was still in a daze, suddenly stiffened, and couldn't believe what she heard just now, was the word "Zichao" just said by the second aunt?
"Look at my memory, if you don't say it, I'll forget it." Shen Yunlang didn't notice Liang Ming's sudden look, he just patted his forehead and smiled: "It's true that I asked him to come to the mansion to find me today yesterday, and you also know that recently, because he was ordered by the old man of the concubine to study history with His Royal Highness the Second Prince, he has never had the opportunity to give a lecture to Zichao anymore, and it is rare to have time today, no, I will quickly let him come over." ”
