On March 26, the ladies of the Zhen Mansion saw off Zhen Mingjie at the second gate, and the old man Zhen took several sons all the way to the dock, watching the three young talents who traveled together go far from the shore, their eyes were full of hope, they were all the hope of the Zhen Mansion.

With the departure of Zhen Mingjie, the second room also moved to Xinghua Hutong, the huge Zhen Mansion now has only a big room in the east courtyard, and only four rooms in the west courtyard, and the calm Zhen Mansion has returned to the peace of the past, and it seems more and more empty, although the old lady didn't say it in her mouth, but the hall that was a lot colder every day made the smile on the old man's face fade a little, so it became more and more important to Nannan, Li Yuanfang, the stepmother, seemed to have faded her mind about raising two children, and did not mention it again。 In this regard, Zhen Wanyi put her mind at ease, it is definitely better to follow the old lady than to follow the stepmother, as for the future, let's talk about it later, anyway, the old lady's body does not seem to be short-lived.

Now that the children who are about to reach adulthood in the house have been settled, the four wives and their daughters have also begun to prepare their own dowries, and their lives are plain and fulfilling. To Zhen Wanyi's surprise, Zhen Wenyi also came to Zhilan Courtyard every day to report. But if you think about it carefully, it seems that it should be, most of the new daughter-in-law's meeting gifts to her mother-in-law are clothes, shoes, socks and handkerchiefs made by herself.

Time spent the spring in such a quiet and quiet place, ushered in the hot summer, with the arrival of summer, the news of the capital also came, Mu Zigui lived up to expectations and won the Jinshi, the sixth place in the second class, and Zhen Mingjie and Qi Changming both fell off the list. After they arrived in the capital, the third master of the Zhen family arranged for these people to live in their own house and guide them attentively, for which Mama Rong and Mrs. Qi came to thank them.

Hearing this news, a few families were happy and a few were sad, Master Zhen locked himself in the room for one night, and when he came out the next day, he gathered everyone, "Now Brother Ming will not have a good effect when he comes back to study." I have written a letter to the third child, asking him to register Brother Ming and You Zhi in Guozijian, and go directly to school in early September. It's only been more than two months now, and I've asked the third child to stay in Beijing without going back and forth. ”

The fourth master and the fourth wife got up together and said, "Thank you, Dad." ”

Old lady Zhen waved her hand, "This is what I should do." If it is hot today, you husband and wife will work harder, go to the capital to settle Brother Ming's family affairs, and then let him study hard in the capital. ”

The fourth wife was overjoyed, glanced at the fourth master, and nodded again and again, "Okay, let's pack up and go to the capital." ”

The old man waved his hand, "After you arrive in the capital, you will first find a house, and in the future, Brother Ming may have to stay in the capital for several years, you have to make long-term preparations, find a bigger house, and find me how much silver to get." ”

The fourth old man hurriedly said: "Dad, how can I get the money to buy a house, my son has made some business in the past two years, and he still has the ability to buy a house, and then he will split up, and his son also has money in his hands." ”

The old man paused for a moment, and then nodded slowly, the money he took out when he split up the family last time almost hollowed out the family's funds, and now he is really embarrassed to let him take the money. "That's okay, but don't wronged the child. ”

The fourth room was being cleaned up, and the fourth wife leaned on the Luohan bed to recuperate, only Hui Xianglian Xiang and a few people were lightly facing the account, and Zhen Ruyi rushed over, "Mother, today my grandfather asked someone to bring news to the house, saying that he asked Xianggong to study at the third uncle, is it true?"

Zhen Wanyi helped the fourth wife sit up, and the fourth wife sighed, "It turned out to be the news that your grandfather brought you, which is naturally true, but what does your mother-in-law think?"

Only then did Zhen Ruyi notice the paleness of the fourth wife's face, and hurriedly said, "Mother, what's wrong with you?

Zhen Wanyi took over, "I got the news yesterday that my mother slept late, or caught a cold, and today she is a little hot." ”

Zhen Ruyi heard "ah" when she heard it, "Mother, you have to pay attention to your body, the sixth brother is still young, and there will be time in the future, anyway, he is already a lifter, it doesn't matter if Jinshi is a few years late, and our family is not a family that can't afford to study." My mother-in-law didn't sleep all night when she heard the news yesterday, and if she hadn't been able to get up today, she would have to come with me to thank her grandfather. ”

The fourth lady pulled a faint smile at the corner of her mouth when she heard this, and nodded, "It's best if you think like this." If you are fine, you can go back to serve the sick earlier, so that you don't have to worry about your family's affairs when you are away. I will go to the capital with your father after a while, and settle the family affairs of your sixth brother, you ask your mother, if you want to go with us and go to the capital together, if You Zhi is alone in Beijing, I am afraid that there will be someone to take care of by my side. ”

Zhen Ruyi bit her lip, "Well, my daughter will discuss it with her mother-in-law." ”

Zhen Wanyi sent Zhen Ruyi back, and looked at the fourth wife who was drinking medicine, "It's hard for the seventh sister on this hot day." ”

"Husband and wife are one, one is prosperous, one is lost, and now that You Zhi is off the list, her life will definitely be difficult. Even her awkward mother-in-law is enough for her. ”

Zhen Wanyi hesitated: "Will Mrs. Qi agree to let Seventh Sister go to the capital with you?"

The fourth lady nodded, "Yes, if the seventh sister can't say this bit of things well and can't do it, then she really doesn't want to live a good life." ”

Zhen Wanyi somewhat understands that what the fourth wife said just now is to let Zhen Ruyi borrow the momentum of the Zhen Mansion, and now Qi Changming wants to borrow the help of the third master of the Zhen family to go to Guozijian to study, then it is impossible to let Zhen Ruyi stay in Qinghe City, and it is impossible to let a young couple who have just married live separately and give Qi Changming a concubine, the worst result is nothing more than that Mrs. Qi and Zhen Ruyi go to the capital together. And Zhen Wanyi faintly felt that this idea was most likely to come true.

Sure enough, within a few days, Zhen Ruyi came to Zhen's mansion again and brought the exact news, "Mother, my mother-in-law said that she wanted Xianggong to study in the capital with peace of mind, so she planned to hand over the affairs of the family to a cousin to take care of, and then go to the capital with her daughter to take care of Xianggong." After all, my husband and I are both young, and we have my mother-in-law by our side to guide us, and our hearts are also steady. ”

The fourth lady nodded, "That's fine, we also need to clean up here, your sixth brother didn't bring many things when he went to the capital, we have to bring them to him this time, so I'm afraid it will take some time, you let your mother-in-law also pack up, no accident, we can set off in early July." ”

Zhen Ruyi was naturally grateful, and left the four-color dim sum and went back, and it was useless to eat the same as last time.

The fourth lady looked at it and nodded, "I used to say that among your sisters, the seventh sister is the most calm and thoughtful, but now I am really right, no matter how many things must be prioritized, I know that I will give face to my mother-in-law's family in my mother's house, and I will not lose my mother's face if I want to come to my mother-in-law's house."
