Extra-years of experience

In the fourteenth year of Renjia, now the emphasis on agriculture and water conservancy, the world is peaceful, Daxia is prosperous and strong, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which is more prosperous than before.

"Ho, ho!"

In the early spring, there were two horses galloping on the official road, not far behind, followed by several horses, all of whom were men in short suits.

"Minzhe, let's go back to Beijing quickly, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with my aunt's birthday if we delay." On a white horse in front of him, a fair-skinned and handsome young man persuaded the young man running beside him.

The young man who was called Minzhe turned his head and smiled heartily, and said: "Brother Nian, don't worry, let's catch up, let's go to my mother's hometown to take a look, she hasn't been back for more than ten years, let's bring back the specialties here, she is happier than anything else." ”

"Okay!" Xia Mingyan smiled helplessly and said, "I knew you wouldn't give up." ”

"Hehe, you don't know about me, you just want to go back to see my eldest sister earlier." Zhuang Minzhe looked at him with a smile, paused and said: "But Brother Nian, you still have to give up, my mother said that I don't want the eldest sister to enter the palace, and besides, she is married, and Liqiu will be married." ”

Xia Mingyan was a little lonely, and the bright girl appeared in front of her, smiled lightly, and said, "Don't talk about this, let's hurry up!" ”

Seeing this, Zhuang Minzhe just sighed.

He is the eldest son in the family, the eldest sister Yuan has been married to the eldest son of Jingguo Mansion two years ago, Xia Mingyan has a noble status, although he is a childhood sweetheart with his eldest sister, but it is also Lang You's sister unintentionally, eldest sister, what I like is Qi Feng of Jingguo Gong.

In the past ten years, the Zhuang family has made meritorious contributions to the emperor's ascension, because of Qin Ruwei's identity, he has won the emperor's favor, and Zhuang Churan is a meritorious minister, so over the years, he has sat in the position of the left minister.

But no emperor likes to have a courtier, so there is a left minister, and naturally there is a right phase, balancing the political situation in the court, and according to Zhuang Churan and Qin Ruwei's ideas, there is no need for greater power to attract the emperor's suspicion.

Xia Mingyan is the crown prince, because of the nurturing grace of the year, he respects Qin Ruwei, and he also has a soft spot for Sister Yuan, which is extremely unfavorable for an emperor, otherwise, in the future, this Great Xia, will it be the Xia family's or the banker's?

Therefore, the dealer does not need to push a queen up, and after experiencing the cruelty of seizing the heir back then, Qin Ruwei is even more reluctant to let her daughter take one step like Princess Ren and now Empress Xiaoxian, counting ten steps.

The Jingguo Mansion has always been a royalist, with strict family rules, and only men who have no children can take concubines, and their family is simple. Now Qi Feng, who is married to Sister Yuan, is the champion of Renjia for 11 years, who is gentle and elegant, and has extraordinary literary talents, and has been invited to be the son of Jingguo Mansion this year.

Sister Yuan has been pampered and raised, her temperament is hearty, love and hate, in fact, she is not suitable for the royal family, and Qi Feng's temperament is just complementary.

What's more, the Jingguo Mansion can be regarded as Qin Ruwei's mother's family, they know each other well, and the portal is quite good, which can be regarded as a good marriage.

Xia Mingyan didn't know, but he was unwilling in his heart.

He has been guarding the people who grew up, and in the blink of an eye, he is almost someone else's wife.

"Ho, ho!"

Putting aside the troubles in his heart, Xia Mingyan rode forward.

Zhuang Minzhe sighed, what if he was unwilling? The eldest sister is about to get married, and on the Beijing side, I'm afraid that this year will also choose the crown princess!

Shili Tunzi, because of a noble person like Qin Ruwei Zhuang Churan, has long been no more than half of the people who moved here back then, because it is their hometown, the road is very spacious, and a Wenwu Temple has been built, this inscription is still Zhuang Churan himself, and the incense is quite prosperous.

Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan came to the front of the village, and a large archway had the words Shili Tunzi written on it, and they couldn't help but smile at each other.

"Here we are."

Behind him, the horses of the guards followed, each following behind his master.

"The head of the village is not wider than the official road, and there are many people, so don't startle people or hit people, get off your horses and go in slowly." Xia Mingyan commanded lightly.

"Yes."

Everyone responded in unison, and the movements were uniform, and two half-grown teenagers who were exactly the same stepped forward to help Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan take the reins.

"You're good." Zhuang Minzhe smiled and said, "Mama Yangliu also lived here with her mother back then, you can also take a good look at it, and go back to tell her about it, I think she is also very happy." ”

Zhao Yi and Zhao Er glanced at each other and responded with a smile.

They are twin sons, and their mother follows Mrs. to serve, so they naturally follow the young master.

The group slowly walked into the village, and it really attracted side eyes, especially Xia Mingyan and Zhuang Minzhe, they are both children from the pile of wealth, although the clothes on their bodies are not luxurious, but they can't stand their outstanding temperament.

If you want to say that Xia Mingyan is a humble gentleman like jade, then Zhuang Minzhe is as bright as the sun, he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, his skin is healthy wheat, and because of his long years of martial arts, his physique is also stronger and better than that of ordinary people of the same age.

These two people also followed the master to learn martial arts, because they wanted to go back to Beijing to give Qin Ruwei He Mangchen a hurry down the mountain, passing through Changping, thinking that Shili Tunzi was the place where she had lived for 20 years, so she took a look.

"This village looks more prosperous and lively than the ones I passed by." Zhuang Minzhe smiled at Xia Mingyan and said.

"Ouch, you don't know this little brother, our Shili Tunzi has a big official, and there is also a county lord, so this is a well-known feng shui treasure. In the past, there were few people in our ten-mile tunzi, but since we became a big official, many people have moved in, and now within a radius of ten miles, we have the most people in ten-mile tunzi. When an old man heard Zhuang Minzhe's words, he couldn't help but interject.

Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan looked at each other and smiled, didn't this mean his parents?

"Old man, do you think life is better now?" As the crown prince, Xia Mingyan naturally cares about the people's livelihood.

"It's better, it's naturally better, the emperor is a good emperor today, and the taxes are less, so let's live a good life, eat enough and dress warmly, how can we be sad? I just hope that there will be a good life every year. The old man smiled: "This day is better, the old people in our village have lived a long life, and my old man can live a few more years." ”

"Life will definitely get better and better, and the old people will definitely live a long life." Xia Mingyan said with a proud face.

"That's that, take your words, little brother." The old man stroked his white beard, looked at the two of them again, and asked, "You two young heads, what are you doing here?" Then he looked behind them at the men who were leading the horses, and looked suspicious.

"We also came here to see the hometown of the ** county lord." Zhuang Minzhe replied first: "I don't know if the old man can show us the way." ”

"Oh, do you see, then, that big mansion is it." The old man pointed enthusiastically.

The two of them followed his fingers and looked at a house with white walls and tiles in front of them, and they thanked them and walked forward.

"I heard my mother say that this is the first house she built after making money as a pancreato, and the significance is extraordinary." Zhuang Minzhe looked at the house in front of him, which was obviously a little old, and said to Xia Mingyan with a smile.

"Self-sufficient, my aunt is also good." Xia Mingyan made up a sentence.

Zhao Yi stepped forward and knocked on the door, and after waiting for a while, someone opened the door and looked: "Who are you looking for?" ”

Zhao Yi handed over the token and said, "It's the prince who came to the former residence of the county lord to take a look." ”

The man was stunned for a moment, and his eyes fell on the two teenagers behind him, one of them, his face was similar to Zhuang Churan, and there was also a bit of Xiao like Qin Ruwei between his eyebrows, and he hurriedly opened the door and said, "It's a small eye, son, fast forward." ”

Since getting married, Qin Ruwei has never come back to live in the house, Qin Daniu and they have not yet moved, they will also help watch, and later they also moved, the house was completely empty, and the backyard was given to the workers of the workshop, and two subordinates were invited to guard.

Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan entered the inner courtyard, someone brought water to freshen up, and after eating two teas, the two saw that it was still early, so they went out for a stroll again.

waved everyone away, only letting Zhao Yi and Kong Zhi, one of Xia Mingyan's personal guards, follow, and the two walked around the village to watch.

Although the two of them didn't bring many people, but the temperament is noble, and it is definitely not comparable to the crops in the village, this circle walked down, it actually attracted a lot of scrutiny, and even the admiring eyes of the girl, and some boldly threw purses at the two, making the two cry and laugh.

"In the end, it's not as good as Miss Jingzhong, but the folk customs here are more open." Xia Mingyan held the purse in his hand and joked.

"The girls in the peasant family are relatively simple, because the peasant family is busy, and there are no more rules and regulations than the other young lady, you just look at it, according to your identity, with your identity, it is impossible to match such a girl." Zhuang Minzhe looked at him and said, "I'm afraid that Jingli is also preparing to choose a concubine for you." ”

Xia Mingyan is basically the same year as Sister Yuan, and the age difference between the two is fifteen days, just a year-end birth and a year-beginning birth, but both of them are seventeen or eighteen, it's time to get married.

When he mentioned this incident, Xia Mingyan was a little depressed, and when Zhuang Minzhe saw this, he changed the topic and teased with a smile: "But although it is not possible to be a concubine, it is not impossible to be an ordinary concubine, the key is that you like it." ”

"you." Xia Mingyan glared at him, not as depressed as he was just now.

"Who are you?" Suddenly, Kong Zhi let out a loud cry and pulled the minds of both of them over.

It turned out that at some point, a dark-skinned middle-aged man stopped in front of the two, carrying a pair of baskets with seedlings on them.

Xia Mingyan frowned, because he found that this person's eyes fell on Zhuang Minzhe, and he couldn't help but turn sideways slightly.

Seeing this, the man reacted, but his expression was quite excited, he took a step forward, looked at Zhuang Minzhe and asked, "You, are you Wei'er's son?" ”

As soon as he said this, Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan both frowned in unison, knowing in their hearts that since this was Qin Ruwei's hometown, there were naturally people who knew her.

But Qin Ruwei's status is noble, not to mention her identity, she is already married to a wife, and this person should not call her by her name, that would be too rude.

"My mother is Zhuang Wei." Zhuang Minzhe didn't bother to bother with him, and asked lightly: "Are you?" ”

"I, I..." The man's originally excited expression dimmed, showed a wry smile, and asked instead of answering: "Your mother, are you okay?" Is she back? As he spoke, he looked behind him.

Zhuang Minzhe was displeased, and his voice became colder and colder: "My mother didn't come back, I just came to my hometown to see on her behalf." Saying that, Xia Mingyan left.

No matter who this person was, he didn't like an outsider to miss his mother so much.

The man watched them go away and muttered, "Your children are so old, they are so good-looking, if yes, if ... I'm always unlucky. ”

If those things hadn't happened at the beginning, would such a noble person be his son of Deng Fugui?

He turned his head and looked at the big mansion from afar, and there would always be the person's voice and smile in front of him, in the blink of an eye, more than ten years, how are Yiren?

No, she is naturally very good, look at her sons have grown so big, and they are still born like this.

Deng Fugui returned to his home, and the blind old mother was sitting in the courtyard scolding, scolding the Song family, scolding his son, scolding him, and scolding Qin Ruwei.

Such days are not a day or two, and now Mrs. Deng is becoming more and more ignorant, Deng Fugui is irritable, and the hatred in his heart has risen again, if it weren't for her, if it wasn't for her, how could it be like this today?

"You might as well be dead!" Deng Fugui walked up to Mrs. Deng and said suddenly.

Mrs. Deng's scolding stopped abruptly, and her cloudy eyes looked at him and slowly shed tears.

Deng Fugui pursed his lips and sighed, he knew today, why bother, why bother?

Zhuang Minzhe and Xia Mingyan stayed in Shili Tunzi for two days and left, when they came empty-handed, they pulled half a cart of things when they left, for no other reason, they only came on the first day, Zhuang Minzhe's identity has been spread in Shili Tunzi.

The farmers are very hospitable, especially knowing that he is the son of Zhuang Churan and Qin Ruwei, who came back to take a look at their hometown on behalf of their parents, they all expressed great joy, and repeatedly sent all kinds of specialties, saying that they wanted him to take them back so that Qin Ruwei and them could taste it and make a thought.

It is all the hearts of the villagers, although Zhuang Minzhe is the son of a noble family, but because he has followed his master to practice martial arts since he was a child, he has suffered hard, and he does not have the squeamishness of a noble son.

It was the second day of the fifth month of the fifth month when he returned to Shangjing, it was Qin Ruwei's Mangchen, Xia Mingyan wanted to go back to the palace to ask for peace first, and Zhuang Minzhe also rushed back to the house, and the two broke up at the city gate, just waiting for a banquet to reunite later.

Qin Ruwei is nearly forty years old, and she has been pampered all these years, so that her appearance is still young, and she looks like she has not yet arrived in her thirties, which makes many ladies in Beijing envious.

Qin Ruwei also has a set of maintenance, the diet is regular and light, the general lady is already devoted to the Buddha at her age, and the scriptures do not leave her hand, but she is not, although she occasionally recites the scriptures and copies the scriptures, but it is not often, but she has practiced modern yoga.

Practicing yoga, one can cultivate the mind, and the other can maintain the body shape, and with diet, there is no worry, and you will naturally be young.

She has been married to Zhuang Churan for nearly 20 years, and the two have always been in love, and the older other men look at their wives, the more their hearts and eyes glance at the young concubine girl.

Zhuang Churan is different, the older Qin Ruwei gets, the more closely he watches, in other words, at her age, she makes herself more stable and loved.

A woman has experienced the baptism of the years, and her gestures have her own charm, she can be gentle and elegant, quiet and indifferent, or generous and lovely. In terms of appearance, she remains young and ageless, and the bed is even more charming and charming, this is not something that a little girl can learn, how can Zhuang Churan not love it?

It is precisely because of this that who here does not praise her and envy her?

Noble status, both children and daughters, loving husband and wife, and no messy concubines at home, who has such a good life?

Qin Ruwei listened to the compliments of the lady below, kept a faint smile on her face, and said, "I am going to blush when you praise me, how can it be as good as you say?" ”

"It's not good, in this capital, if you want to say that it is enviable, the queen mother recognized the first, who would dare to compete with you for the second?" A lady laughed.

In fact, this is also a compliment to the queen, the queen is above 10,000 people, although it is enviable, but in the high wall, watching her husband spoil this today and that tomorrow, how enviable can it be?

Moreover, this year's draft is going to be drafted again, since he ascended the throne today, on the grounds that the state affairs are busy in northern Xinjiang and undecided, the United Communist Party has drafted a show in the fifth and ninth years of Renjia.

For example, if it is peaceful today, the country is prosperous and strong, and he is ready to choose a concubine for the prince, so there will be a big draft this autumn, and now the show girls are entering the palace one after another to learn the rules to be selected.

Qin Ruwei said a few words humbly, her eyes fell on the door from time to time, and she was a little depressed in her heart.

"Madam, the eldest young master is back." A girl quickly came in and reported: "I'm going this way!" ”

Qin Ruwei was overjoyed, stood up, and saw some young ladies present, and hurriedly asked someone to move the screen.

After the ladies were standing behind the screen, Zhuang Minzhe also walked in, and was very excited to see Qin Ruwei, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to say goodbye: "If you are not filial to your mother, I wish your mother a long life like a pine crane every year." ”

"Okay, okay, get up." Qin Ruwei personally helped him up, looked at it carefully, and said with red eyes: "I'm thin, but I can't eat well outside?" ”

"Let the mother worry, the child is not thin, and he is still strong." Zhuang Minzhe smiled, knowing that there were people standing behind the screen, but his eyes were not chaotic at all, and the ladies present looked at it and nodded secretly.

Zhuangfu's tutor is really not bad, look at this eldest son, he is spiritual, his character is good, and he has such a family background, I heard that he has been admitted to Xiucai.

The ladies who have young ladies of the right age in the family are secretly playing Xiao Jiujiu, not only that, but the ladies behind the screen are also looking through the screen with red faces.

Who doesn't want to marry a good husband, especially the family style and family background of the Zhuang family, Qin Ruwei is the county lord, but she has no shelf at all, and she gets along very well.

Qin Ruwei also knew that this was not a good time to get together, so she said: "Your grandmother has always been concerned about you, go and greet her, and your father is also accompanying the guests in front." After please, go back to the yard to freshen up and then go to the front to entertain guests. ”

Zhuang Minzhe smiled and agreed, and asked the ladies to salute before leaving.

As soon as he left, the screen was withdrawn again, and someone asked the ladies to go to the garden to play, and Qin Ruwei also asked Sister Yuan to lead him around.

The remaining ladies praised Zhuang Minzhe for a while, and then hinted at the family matter, which was nothing more than a decision on the family.

Qin Ruwei also had a draft in her heart, and replied on the grounds that he hadn't established a business yet and was slowly looking at each other.

are all people who deal with each other in the backyard all year round, and no one will say in public how their daughter matches your son, so they will go over.

Qin Ruwei's Mangchen is naturally lively, and there are rewards in the palace, and after a day of trouble, the family comes together to talk.

As early as when Xia Lanhao had just ascended the throne, Qin Ruwei had already given birth to a pair of children to Zhuang Churan, and was pregnant with two sons.

After Wei Xian was born, Qin Ruwei had nothing for many years, there were two sons left and right, Zhuang Churan didn't care whether she was born or not, Qin Ruwei also thought that she had three children, but who knew that when Renjia was ten years old, she was pregnant with another one, and she was thirty-five years old at that time, and she was also an old clam and a pearl.

The last child is a young girl, at this age, in the eyes of the ancients, she is an old woman, Zhuang Churan is too baby, and Qin Ruwei herself is a little pampered.

I don't blame them for being pampered, even Sister Yuan and her two sons are also very precious to this little sister who is much older than her, so the little girl Zhuang Jialin is a collection of thousands of pets.

Zhuang Minzhe only has a younger brother, and his little sister is also young, he can't spoil her, he throws her around her, and lets her ride and play as a horse, until she is tired and rests, and then sits down to talk to her father.

Zhuang Minzhe first talked about his days in the mountains, and then also talked about what he had seen and heard in Shili Tunzi, which made Qin Ruwei yearn for it.

"You keep saying that you can't wait until you're busy, so you will go back to your hometown with us, and I don't know when, I'm afraid that when you're free, I won't be able to walk." Qin Ruwei said angrily.

Zhuang Churan was naturally full of smiles.

Qin Ruwei asked Zhuang Minzhe a few more questions, and he answered them all, and he stopped talking.

Qin Ruwei was a little strange, and said with a smile: "What, what can't you say to your mother?" ”

Zhuang Minzhe laughed, scratched his head and said, "No, it's nothing, it's just a little tired." ”

At this time, it was also late at night, Qin Ruwei hurriedly drove him to rest, and after freshening up herself, she and Zhuang Churan leaned on the bed to talk.

"After a while, the children are so old, I haven't seen each other for the past two years, Brother Man'er is taller than me, hey, I have to admit that I am old." Qin Ruwei sighed.

Zhuang Churan hugged her and said, "What's old, in my eyes, you are still the same as I saw at the beginning, more beautiful." ”

"You're poor." Qin Ruwei glared at him with disgust, but there was a sweetness in her heart that she couldn't hide.

"Seriously, when did I tell a lie?" Zhuang Churan leaned into her ear and said, "Otherwise, I have been alone with you for so many years, and my eyes have never been reluctant to leave you." ”

"You're enough! are all old husbands and wives, and their daughters will be married in a few months, and they are still not serious. The more Qin Ruwei listened, the redder her face became, pinched him around his waist, and said: "Today, several ladies have asked about Brother Man's family affairs, the children are really old, and they are all going to become biological children, and we have become old men and old women." ”

"He's also sixteen, and he's not in a hurry, and he can see each other slowly." Zhuang Churan smiled and said: "Our children are all golden nests, and many people are fighting for it!" ”

Qin Ruwei sneered, but there was honor in her eyes.

Thinking of Brother Man's expression tonight, he asked again: "What do you say is wrong with this child, I look at him as if he has something on his mind!" ”

Zhuang Churan hesitated.

Seeing his expression, Qin Ruwei was a little suspicious, and sat up a little straight: "What, what's the matter hiding from me?" ”

"No, it's that I talked to a few generals about things in the army today, I see that Brother Man is very yearning, and when it comes to using soldiers, he is still the way, and several generals praise him for being a general, I see that he is very happy, and asked a few questions about being a soldier, I'm afraid that this kid wants to join the army!"

"What!" Qin Ruwei was shocked all of a sudden, her head was a little dizzy, and she couldn't help but hold on.

"Look at you, what's the hurry, I don't want to tell you that I'm afraid of you like this." Zhuang Churan hurriedly comforted her, and took the medicinal oil on the bedside to wipe her forehead.

Qin Ruwei grabbed his hand and said, "Being a soldier will not work." ”

Although she has two sons, who wants her son to run on the front line? How dangerous that is!

"Okay, okay, that's also a shadowless thing, let's talk about it." Zhuang Churan sighed and said, "We sent him to learn martial arts since he was a child, isn't it because he expected this day?" ”

"I sent him to learn martial arts, because I wanted him to be physically strong and strong, not to be a soldier." Qin Ruwei said: "Our family is rich enough, and he doesn't need to fight for any glory." ”

"Vile." Zhuang Churan held her hand and said: "Men want to set up a career, and they don't have to fight because of the wealth of their families, if you think like this, where will you put him?" Our children can't be wrecked! ”

Qin Ruwei was stunned for a moment, opened her mouth, and said after a while: "I just want him to be safe, seeing him marry a wife and have children, and have children and grandchildren, is this wrong?" ”

Zhuang Churan hugged her and said, "That's right, but we can't deprive him of the right to chase his dreams, besides, hasn't he decided yet?" ”

Qin Ruwei was silent, terrified in her heart.

Two days later, as Zhuang Churan expected, Zhuang Minzhe really put forward the idea of wanting to join the army, Mrs. Zhuang immediately objected and fainted when she heard it, although Qin Ruwei was not, her face turned pale and she voted against.

Zhuang Minzhe knew that this would be the case, but he did not change his mind, but knelt in the courtyard of Old Madam Zhuang for two days, and Qin Ruwei also knelt there, just begging them to agree.

Mrs. Zhuang was reluctant to let her grandson risk his death, Qin Ruwei was heartbroken, being a soldier was more difficult than taking the imperial examination, only Zhuang Churan and He Weixian were the only people who supported him.

Qin Ruwei finally didn't resist her son, and five days after the eldest daughter got married, she and Zhuang Churan personally sent him outside the Shili Pavilion, and with the brigade away, until there was no shadow in sight, she fell into Zhuang Churan's arms and cried silently.

The son is older, and he is no longer the babbling little guy, he has his own ideas, and he is getting farther and farther away from his parents.

"It's the eagle that should soar into the sky, and he'll be back." Zhuang Churan's eyes were also slightly wet, patting his wife's back to comfort her and comfort herself.

Qin Ruwei cried for a long time before she choked up with red eyes: "I regret it!" ”

Zhuang Churan sighed in her heart, she won't chase after her, right? But Qin Ruwei's next sentence made him laugh.

"I should marry him a daughter-in-law first, otherwise, this kid will go through the years, and I don't know when we will be able to hold our grandson!" Qin Ruwei's voice was resentful.

Zhuang Churan laughed out loud, hugged her face and kissed her fiercely, such a woman is his wife, what more can a husband ask for?
