Although the conditions for the imperial examination are now relaxed, the concubine can also be a student. However, at the beginning, the Zhong family insisted on not allowing a few of them to enter the department, and their brothers also broke off their hearts all the way to the imperial examination. Song Anyuan and Song Angu did not have a scholarship, and since then they have also accepted their hearts and minds to be white, but Song Anrong is quite able to understand some literary meanings, and has always refused to quit. Moreover, reading is only to serve the country, and ordinary people go to school and have their own series of books to gain fame, such as the Four Books and the Five Classics, such as the Analects University. Since Song Anrong did not take the road of the imperial examination, in addition, he wanted to read some books of leisure and leisure, and gradually had some unique views on love.

Mortals who can write may not be able to draw. I can draw, but I may not be able to write. Such a person may have some skills, but he cannot be honored. Only those who can write, draw, and write, and can combine the three together, can be called everyone. Song Anrong is now a master of calligraphy and painting.

It is because his calligraphy and paintings are very sought-after, and many people come to buy them.

At the beginning, the second room of the Song Mansion was left in Beijing, and all I wanted was to frame some calligraphy and paintings for the purpose of making a living. Who knows that if you have the intention to plant flowers, you can't do it, but you can't plant willows without intention. A calligraphy and painting can easily cost dozens of silver, and it is enough to chew it for several days when it is opened once a day. When the year was about to be counted, after removing the rent and some purchase costs, he actually made a net profit of more than 3,000 taels of silver.

Su Shi saw that Zhen had exchanged the silver tickets for a few large ones to bring back, and said with a smile: "It can be seen that we are right to go to Beijing, although I accidentally left you in Wuling Mountain and made you suffer some suffering, but if there is no suffering, now there are a lot of silver tickets?" In the poor village of Hui County, the tenants who are only renting a few tens or hundreds of taels of silver all year round are enough for what? ”

Now that he has made some money, Su asked to rent a small building behind this shop, and moved Zhenyuan Zhenyi to live in the back, thinking that as soon as the spring is opened, he will ask Zhenyuan about a good family matter.

During the Spring Festival, every household keeps the New Year, and Song's framing shop is also the same as other shops, closed for 15 days, waiting for the Shangyuan Festival.

They went back to the Song Mansion with their family, but the Zhong family contracted the wind chill due to the cold weather, and now they said that they were sick, and only the Shen family and Song Angu were outside. At this time, Su Shi had a business to make money, and rented a new small building, and lived very comfortably outside, when he heard that Zhong Shi felt cold, remembered her bad temper, and was afraid that Zhong Shi heard that he was coming to grab and serve in front of the bed, so he was so frightened that he changed his face. Then I heard Shen's joke that now it is all Zhenxiu who takes care of it in the house, and the heart of the suspense is relaxed again. Brought a few Zhenyuan Zhenshu to the easy-going house to see the Zhong family.

Because the room was too big to be hot, Zhong now moved to the kang in the innermost small warm pavilion. When she was young, she had a hidden disease in gynecology, and now that hidden disease has recurred, it is unbearable. Su Shi entered the door with a few daughters, and first smelled a peculiar smell, because he saw Zhong leaning on the pillow on the kang and half crooked, it was inconvenient to show it, and the workers with a few daughters were knocking on the ground to wish him a good time, and then he got up and stood on the edge of the kang and asked Zhong with a smile: "The ancestor looks at Zhenxiu and is serving him with all his heart?" ”

Zhong glanced at Zhenxiu, who was rubbing his shoulders and pinching his back behind him, and said, "I'm just afraid that I won't die early." ”

Su Shi was used to hearing these cold eyes, and at this time, the shop run by her husband and daughter was booming, and she didn't care about her stabbing herself, so she sat on the edge of the kang and said: "Their filial piety is all first-class, Zhenxiu is more filial than others, which shows the blessing of the ancestors." ”

Zhong said coldly: "I can also be called blessed? ”

After she finished speaking, her face changed abruptly, and she waved her hand: "What are you doing in this mansion all day?" Hurry up, hurry up, go away! ”

Although Zhong has always had a bad temper, he has never been so angry. Su Shi hurriedly saluted and said, "Since the old ancestor is in a bad mood, my daughter-in-law will take a few daughters to the outside world." ”

She took Zhen Yuan out of the easy-going house, but still went to Shen's place, and after complaining about what happened, she heard Shen sigh: "Now I don't know what's going on this day, our Concubine Rong has been favored in the palace smoothly, and when she is old, she was snubbed by the saint." Therefore, the ancestors are also a little troubled now. ”

Su Shi hurriedly asked, "Why is this?" ”

Shen lowered his voice and said, "Don't tell it, it's still a secret, and I only found out when Zhenyu came back and said it." It turned out that in May last year, when the ancestor was on his birthday, Du Yu, the son of Du Guogong's mansion, escaped from prison and was full of turmoil, and after he escaped from the capital, he somehow met Yu Yichen, the chief eunuch of the East Palace Prince, in the Ganzhou area, and the two also fought each other. It is said that the two fought because they wanted to grab a piece of something with a pattern, and the jade father-in-law went on the order of the prince, occupying the right reason and the strength of the people, who knew that he had not beaten that Du Yu, and asked him to snatch the treasure map. ”

Then Gonggong Yu returned to the capital, and naturally reported the matter to the East Palace, and the East Palace reported it to the Holy Lord. The saint was furious and ordered Du Guogong to remove Du Yu from the position of son, and this matter should be over here. Who knew that in October, someone saw him haunting the area of Huixian County, which had become a scorched earth, and the letter spread to the East Palace, and the East Palace sent people to chase him, all the way to Liangzhou. After arriving in Liangzhou, Gonggong Yu personally went to ask our King Ping to mention people, but King Ping refused.

The prince of Yu came back to report to the East Palace and the saint, the saint was furious, and personally ordered King Ping to send that Du Yu back. Now their father and son are fighting, so angry that Concubine Rong also called the saint to alienate. The ancestor felt uncomfortable, and he was in a hurry. ”

Su Shi patted his thigh and said, "Du Guogong actually raised such a good son? ”

Shen said: "Who said it wasn't." Because he lost his mother's education since he was a child, Du Guogong invited him to be crowned by the son of the world early, and he knew that he was unlucky, and now the title still has to fall to the youngest son born by the stepfamily. Du Guogong is still the envoy of the ** festival, if he is obedient, what can't he get? ”

Su said: "If he harms King Ping and is punished by the emperor, he is really guilty and deserves death." King Naping had an incurable disease when he was a child, but it was cured by the medicine that Zhenyuan and his father begged all the way to the Western Regions. ”

As she was talking, Zhenxiu pulled the curtain and came in and said with a smile: "Why don't my sisters come to sit in my good academy for a while?" ”

Zhen Yuan said: "You are now close to your ancestors in front of you, how can we bother, let's go and get busy." ”

Zhenxiu dragged Zhenyuan and Zhenshu and said, "Because you are here, the ancestor deliberately gave me a half-day vacation and asked me to gossip with you." ”

As soon as her gossip was talked, Zhenyuan and Zhenshu refused to do anything, and they were finally pulled by her to the Good Academy. This yard now only lives Zhenxiu and a little girl Xiao Jiu, that Xiao Jiu is a little yellow-haired girl whose hair has not yet grown, in addition to stealing and hiding and sleeping all day long, she is greedy to look around for food, and her mind can be used to clean up the house.

Because Zhenyu's dowry is all new, all the old things in this house are still there, but they are dirty and messy everywhere. Zhenxiu lives here alone and has no scruples, the straps that wrap her feet are thrown around, her embroidered shoes are thrown everywhere, and the ground looks like she hasn't been wiped for many days. Only Zhenxiu didn't care, hugged a bunch of clothes on the small couch and threw them away, asked Zhenyuan Zhenxiu to sit down, and called Xiao Jiudao: ", go and pour two cups of tea." ”

Xiao Jiu scratched his fluffy head and went out half-asleep, and Zhen Xiucai said again: "Look at the spacious place I live now, right?" ”

Zhen Shu didn't say anything, Zhen Yuan said: "It's very spacious, but it's too cold." ”

Zhenxiu pursed her lips and said: "This house should be burned by the earth dragon, because the price of frost and charcoal is high now, and the ancestors are reluctant to burn it for me, but fortunately, I stay in the casual house all day, and I can't sleep here at night." ”

While a few were sitting, Zhenyi ran in and said, "You didn't call me." ”

She just went to the inner room to play with Changcan and Changgui, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Zhenxiu pulling the other two away. Zhen Yi saw a lot of clothes piled up on the bed, and jumped anxiously: "Sister Zhenyu actually left these clothes for the fourth sister?" ”

Zhenxiu said: "Isn't it? It's all mine now. ”

Zhen Yi threw off her coat and picked it up one by one and compared it to her body, Zhen Xiu knew that she had loved these since she was a child, and she no longer paid attention to her. Shaking his head and complaining: "Now the ancestor's temper is rushing, she is already uncomfortable in gynecology, and the fire on the kang is too big and burned, and she has not been out of the gong for many days." ”

She leaned in and whispered, "Do you know what I think?" ”

Zhen Yuan said: "What way? I must have told her to drink more honey or something. ”

Zhenxiu stretched out her fingers and bent the bend: "I buckled them off with my hands." ”

Zhen Yuan was so shocked that she fell back, and only after a while did she say, "Then your filial piety is really rare." ”

Zhenxiu stared at Zhenshu and said, "I heard that now you are working as a shopkeeper in the shop, but you have earned thousands of taels of silver?" ”

Zhenshu nodded and said, "Well, it's just hard-earned money." ”

Zhenxiu pursed her lips and sneered: "What is that worth?" Although Zhenyu is married, the belongings hidden in the hands of the ancestors are no less than this number......"

She raised her hand and held out two fingers. Zhen Yi also came over curiously and asked, "Twenty thousand?" ”

Zhenxiu said: "There, 200,000 taels, all of them are given by Concubine Rong over the years. I serve her well now, and when she dies, these will be my compensation. ”

Just after marrying a Zhenyu, it cost most of his net worth, if the Zhong family still has these numbers in his hands, it can be regarded as a huge wealth. Zhen Yuan asked, "Is this what the ancestor revealed to you?" ”

Zhenxiu said: "She hid it tightly, for fear that the fourth uncle and the fourth uncle and aunt would know about taking advantage, and I also quietly turned it over to find out." ”

The easy-going people are all people, although a Miao mother is gone with Zhenyu, and the remaining Lu mother's eyes are as sharp as owls, and she can let go of any movement. Yes, Zhenyuan persuaded: "What you have done for filial piety, not only me, but even Zhenshu Zhenyi will never be able to achieve it." It's just that now you have done your filial piety, on the other hand, you have to listen to Mo and ask, Mo always probes her family background and tells her to think that you are just trying to get her money, which chills you. Otherwise, your hard work will be in vain. ”
