Chapter 122: Genealogy
"This ...... I will definitely try my best to ......" Liu Ruoxi thought about it, then nodded, and then chatted with Aunt Jin again, and inadvertently asked Mrs. Liu, and talked about Liu Yujiang and Liu Da/Grandma, "If Auntie has the opportunity, also pay attention to it for me......"
Aunt Jin saw that Liu Ruoxi agreed, but she just asked her to help listen and pass on some news, so she naturally agreed. Their mother and daughter are in the Liu Mansion, although they have the support of Master Liu, and they are fine in front of Mrs. Liu, but the rest are almost difficult to move an inch. can help Liu Ruoxi, Liu Ruoxi will naturally not treat her badly, and their mother and daughter's life will be much better.
After chatting for a few more words, Aunt Jin said that the hour was not early.
Liu Ruoxi didn't stay deeply, but just gave Layue a look. Layue turned around and went into the back room and took out a small brocade box.
"This is a pair of bracelets that I used to wear when I was a child, so let's wear them for my fifth sister to play with." Liu Ruoxi said.
Inside the brocade box, there is a pair of red gold shrimp bracelets, which are slightly small, and they are indeed something worn by little girls. Aunt Jin excused herself a little and happily accepted it.
Seeing that Aunt Jin and Liu Ruochan were gone, Liu Ruochan asked Layue to bring the two strings of beads, played with them in her hand for a while, smiled, and let Layue put them away.
"Girl, if you accept this gift like this, things will definitely be done?" Mama Chang said.
"Naturally, yes." Liu Ruoxi nodded, confident, "It's just a matter of asking my father to say a word." ”
……
On the other side, Aunt Jin took Liu Ruochan back to her courtyard, and Master Liu was sitting on the couch, looking at the scrolls. Seeing the two of them coming back, Master Liu put down the scroll and looked at Aunt Jin with an inquiring meaning in his eyes.
“…… That's it. "Aunt Jin didn't want to show her joy outside, but when she came to Master Liu, there was no taboo. The corners of her eyes and eyebrows came out with joy, "The third girl is really a smart person." ”
Aunt Jin asked Liu Ruochan to sit in front of Master Liu. Don't look at Master Liu, who is not smiling at the other children, but is very kind to Liu Ruochan. Liu Ruochan is also very close to Master Liu. The three of them sat on the couch, and Aunt Jin took out the bracelet given by Liu Ruoxi to show Master Liu.
"I also gave Chan'er this, saying that she wore it when she was a child."
Master Liu saw it and nodded.
"The work in the second room has always been generous and generous, and there is never a shortage of etiquette." Master Liu said, and asked Aunt Jin, "What did you say?" ”
Aunt Jin told Master Liu about the conversation with Liu Ruoxi.
"Bright kid indeed." Master Liu said, "But." According to you, she might not have agreed. ”
Liu Ruoxi only said that she would do her best, but she didn't do everything.
"When I came out, I called Chan'er's fifth sister......" Aunt Jin told Master Liu, "With the master here, if she is willing to help say something, is there anything that can't be done?" ”
"That's right." Master Liu smiled, "Don't talk about this for the time being, it's leaking the news." I'm afraid it won't be easy to do then. ”
"The slave knows how powerful." Aunt Jin said, "The first time I met, the slave thought she was a cool and capable person, but I was afraid that she was better than ordinary men." The slave is in this big house. I also need some help, and Chan'er...... The master can't guard the slave and Chan'er all the time. ”
"I know." Master Liu sighed lightly and raised his hand to touch Aunt Jin's cheek.
Aunt Jin leaned into the arms of Master Liu. Master Liu did not hesitate to spend gold and silver, and Aunt Jin's face is completely good now. If you don't look closely, you won't be able to see the slightest scratch mark.
"I'll do it for you."
……
The next day, Liu Ruoxi freshened up. I went to Mrs. Liu's house, and Mr. Liu was also there. Liu Ruoxi took out all the girls she was waiting for, and told Second Master Liu and Second Mrs. Liu about Aunt Jin coming to give gifts.
"You promised?" Second Master Liu frowned slightly.
"Well, yes." Liu Ruoxi nodded, "Dad, don't be angry first." Dad, think about it, although it was Aunt Jin who opened her mouth, is this only what Aunt Jin meant? ”
Second Master Liu is also a smart person, and when he heard Liu Ruoxi say this, he understood.
"You mean, your uncle ......"
"Uncle is not easy to speak." Liu Ruoxi said, "In this matter, we don't need to do more, as long as the ancestral hall is opened, Dad will mention this, and the rest will be handed over to the uncle." ”
Master Liu is now the head of the family, as long as Master Liu can mention it, Master Liu will naturally take advantage of the situation to get things done. However, to mention such a sentence, it is not necessary to be a "nobleman".
Second Master Liu is now going to be that nobleman.
"It's also a good thing for everyone." Mrs. Liu said. The only scruple may be that Mrs. Liu will be unhappy. However, according to the rules of the Liu family, it is understandable to do so. "If I miss this time, I am afraid that I will not be able to open an ancestral hall for them again."
Mrs. Liu's ability should not be underestimated, otherwise, Mr. Liu would not have to spend so much scheming.
"I think, that day in front of the old lady said that Jiwen'er, everyone discussed opening an ancestral hall, I'm afraid that the uncle will think of this."
Second Master Liu thought about it and felt that what Liu Ruoxi said was right, so he agreed.
On this day, Master Liu, Second Master Liu and Master Liu Third gathered together to discuss the specific link of opening the ancestral hall and the list of guests to be invited.
There is still something that Second Master Liu doesn't understand, so he can only sigh that his daughter really guessed correctly.
On the day of the opening of the ancestral hall, Liu Ruoxi got up early in the morning, dressed neatly, and went to Mrs. Liu's house. A little girl brought Liu Yuwen over, Liu Yuwen wore a new dress today, and the clothes on her body, jade pendants, purses, fans, etc., were all dressed in the same way as several young masters of the Liu family.
Liu Ruoxi looked Liu Yuwen's whole body up and down, and nodded with a smile.
"Sure enough, it's a good pickup."
Liu Yuwen is about to become the heir of the second master and the second wife of Liu, although he has not yet entered the ancestral hall, he has moved from the front yard to the courtyard of the second master Liu to live. The people who should be served around have also been arranged.
It all happened very quickly, because everyone had been preparing for it for a long time.
The second master Liu selected two old ones from his personal long-term entourage, who were responsible for going out with Liu Yuwen and going to Zongxue to study, and also picked four small houses for Liu Yuwen, Jinmu, water and soil. The little girl who served Liu Yuwen was picked by Liu Ruoxi, and the second Mrs. Liu picked an older, most calm and proper girl from the second-class girl next to her, called Fang Qiao, and went to Liu Yuwen's house to serve.
"These are extremely reliable, and no matter how short they are, there is no hurry to add them slowly." Second Mrs. Liu said to Liu Yuwen.
The so-called people rely on clothes, Liu Yuwen has been dressed up like this, and he has lived in the Liu family for a period of time, he has long taken off his thin appearance in the past, carved in powder, and brought some baby fat, which makes people like it.
Second Mrs. Liu and Second Master Liu were very happy to look at it, and Liu Ruoxi was naturally very happy.
Master Liu San sent someone to invite Master Liu Er, saying that it was time to open the ancestral hall. Second Master Liu was busy dressing up, and together with Second Mrs. Liu, he led Liu Ruoxi and Liu Yuwen to the ancestral hall.
When I arrived at the door of the ancestral hall, after a while, Master Liu, Master Liusan, Mrs. Liu, and Mrs. Liu San accompanied Mrs. Liu, followed by Liu Yuxiang, Liu Yuhai, Liu Yuhai and several relatives.
Liu Yujiang was still "sick" on the couch, so he couldn't come. As for Liu Da/Grandma, Liu Ruoyuan and others, they were told by Master Liu that they didn't have to come.
As soon as Master Liu gave an order, the door of the ancestral hall opened, and everyone was about to go inside.
"The ladies are just outside." Master Liu said, "The second wife and the third girl can come in." ”
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Liu had to stand at the entrance of the ancestral hall. is also a female dependent, but today is the second room step-heir, so it is reasonable that the second wife Liu and Liu Ruoxi can enter the ancestral hall.
Everyone entered the ancestral hall and worshiped the statue of the ancestors, and after the cumbersome etiquette, Master Liu took out the family tree and revised it himself. Under the names of the second master and the second wife of Liu, next to Liu Ruoxi's name, the three words Liu Yuwen were added, and the blood line was drawn with indigo.
This is the rule of the ancestors, and it is not only the Liu family. The children and grandchildren of their own children are marked with a red line, and the heirs of the same clan are marked with a blue line, and the bloodline is clear and cannot be disordered.
After leaving the last stroke on the family tree, Master Liu raised his eyes and glanced in the direction of Second Master Liu and Liu Ruoxi.
"Second brother come and see." Master Liu put down the pen and asked Master Liu to come forward to read the family tree.
Second Master Liu saw that he and Second Mrs. Liu had Liu Yuwen under their names, and he was happy in his heart, and then looked at the names of Master Liu and Third Master Liu.
"Hasn't Chan'er been added to the name of the eldest brother?" Second Master Liu asked.
"It's not time yet." Master Liu said immediately.
"There is no reason to open another ancestral hall for them, so it is better to ...... it," said Master Liu, and saluted Mrs. Liu and asked Mrs. Liu's opinion.
"Instead of opening an ancestral hall in the future and mobilizing the people, it is better to write it together today. …… The name has been determined, and it conforms to the rules set by the ancestors. Master Liu said to Mrs. Liu.
"Rely on you." Old Lady Liu nodded.
"Yes." Master Liu saluted Mrs. Liu again, and then picked up the pen again, and next to his name, he added the words concubine and Jin's begonia, and then added Liu Ruochan's name under the names of the two.
After writing this, Master Liu also stretched his eyebrows. He finally finished a task on his mind. This matter has been stored in his heart for more than 30 years. (To be continued......)
