The afternoon sun has some warmth, the window of the study is wide open, the breeze blows, with a light fragrance of flowers, and Min Wei, who is sitting near the window, just quietly holds the book in her hand, the pages are slowly turned by a short and slightly fleshy hand, at this time Min Wei has grown a lot, although a little fat, but the eyes are still smart and black, the face is a little round, combed with a double bun, pinned with a few pink bead flowers, people have also grown a lot taller, no longer the Min Wei who was dressed in red with baby fat.

Although Min Wei is reading a book at the moment, she has thought a lot in her heart, she has been in this world for 5 years, if she is in her previous life, she is probably still running around the world at this age, playing around with her friends, in her previous life, every time Min Wei mutters the word "past life" in her heart, she will have a feeling of both nostalgia and helplessness.

Since she was able to speak when she was 2 years old, Lan's mother has been very careful and tireless to tell herself the family rules and genealogy of the Jiang family, and she has slowly figured out a qiē in this family, first of all, her grandfather, Jiang Yiran, is the seventh room of the Jiang family, he has two brothers before, Yiwen of the second room is the former patriarch, but he has been dead for many years, and there is also a five-room Yiwu, who was an official in the capital in the early years, and later returned to his hometown, usually meet in the clan and can't speak.

Then there is his father's generation, all of them are the Qinzi generation that begins with the word Qin, the current patriarch is his second uncle, the uncle is the grandfather's eldest son, the third uncle is the only son of the fifth room, it is said that he was originally a concubine, and then because the old lady of the fifth room really could not give birth to a son, he officially accused the ancestors before changing to a son, the fourth uncle is the grandfather's second son, his own father is the third, and he has a younger brother behind him, which is his sixth uncle.

The rest are those aunts, the old lady in the second room died early and only gave birth to a son, and then Jiang Yiwen did not remarry, so there was only one single seedling, although the old lady in the fifth room had no son, she gave birth to three daughters, namely the eldest aunt, the fourth aunt and the sixth aunt, Min Wei has not seen it, it is said that they got married when Jiang Yiwu was still an official.

As for the seventh room, the old lady has a total of four daughters, in addition to the fifth aunt who is twins with the sixth uncle and died early, the remaining second aunt, third aunt and seventh aunt are already married, these three Min Wei have seen it, married not far away, all near Huangzhou, every year when the old lady celebrates her birthday, they will come back to live for a while.

In Min Wei's generation, just as she said when she first met the patriarch, the patriarch said that the juniors of the Min generation are all from the seventh room of the Jiang family, and it is still the case, the patriarch has been married for many years and still has no son, and some people in the clan have already mentioned that he will succeed to a seven-room lineage, so as to take over the position of the patriarch, otherwise he will discuss a patriarch in the clan after a hundred years.

The third uncle of the fifth room does not like the fifth old lady, and the wife Xiao Lan who married him is the fifth old lady's own clan, although the personality is docile and the character is also good, but unfortunately the third uncle hates her very much just because she listens to the fifth old lady very much, let alone give birth to children, fortunately, the third uncle is only in his early thirties, so there is no need to worry too much about the heir.

The heirs of the seventh room are very prosperous, and the uncle and the sixth uncle are all descendants, the fourth uncle has a concubine, and the first eldest lady he saw was the eldest daughter of the uncle, not called Jiang Jing, but called Jiang Minjing, in addition to her, the uncle also has a son and a daughter, respectively, the eldest young master and the second miss, the sixth uncle has two sons, ranked third and fifth respectively, the fourth uncle has a son and two daughters, the second young master and the third miss are the concubines, and the remaining concubine is the fifth miss who is about a year younger than herself.

When I got to my father, it was the fourth young lady, that is, Jiang Minwei, and then the fourth young master, the sixth miss, and the seventh miss, although the father claimed that one son and three daughters were all descendants, but the real descendants on the family tree were only one of themselves, and the remaining three were all children of the Yao family, and the Yao family herself has not been able to record the family tree, she is just a concubine in the Jiang family, although her children are on the family tree, but they are all concubines.

And about this, I'm afraid it is Min Wei's most admired point for the Jiang family, the Jiang family tree must not be changed without permission, and the concubine is distinct, unless it is like the fifth room, how can you not give birth to a concubine, will hold a clan meeting and then personally accuse the ancestors before you can change the concubine to a concubine, and the rest as long as you start to remember, it is impossible to change it later.

It seems that the patriarch she thought back then was not the kind of old man who came to say that the family law and family rules could not be violated from time to time, but the Jiang family's family law and family rules were still very strict and clear, Min Wei was still thinking about these somewhat troubled family relationships, the door of the study had been gently opened, and then a very light voice was heard, "Miss, noon has passed." ”

Min Wei looked up, and what came in at the door was the Ruyi that the old lady specially pointed out to herself, as for Jixiang, when she was almost 3 years old, because she was not careful enough, she had a high fever and almost died in Jiuquan, Jixiang was directly killed by the angry old lady, and her family was all betrayed, Lan's mother and Ruyi were also beaten by the old lady, and Mo was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for 1 month.

He was hugged back to the old lady at that time, and later the old lady's health was suddenly not very good, so she had to send herself back to Mo's side, and Mo was afraid that something would happen to her daughter again, so she sent her wet nurse's Jiao's mother's granddaughter to Min Wei as a maid, and Min Wei named Rushu according to Ruyi's name.

Min Wei looked at Ruyi, who was always standing not far from the door with her head down, before suppressing the thoughts in her heart, and then said with a hint of coquettishness in the little girl's unique voice: "The chair is too high, I can't get down, Sister Ruyi, you can hug me." It's a pity that Min Wei's coquettish kung fu has not been practiced at home, Ruyi, who was standing far away, just hurriedly walked over, and then gently hugged Min Wei down.

Min Wei looked at Ruyi's expression carefully, during the whole process, her expression was always cautious and cautious, and all the movements were just right, a little less clever than the image she wanted in her heart back then, maybe the auspicious end was too tragic, so she would be very cautious, and when she was older in the future, she should be better.

While thinking in her heart, Min Wei arranged her clothes and hair as she wished, and then took small steps and walked out of the study, through the courtyard full of flowers, and then turned a few verandahs, and crossed a simple corner door, Min Wei arrived at the small courtyard with a decadent atmosphere that she had seen countless times.
