The winter of the seventeenth year of the Great Qin Yongping

Approaching the New Year, the plum blossoms in the backyard quietly bloom alone. It was rare to be at home, Shen Sicheng asked his mother to say goodbye, and talked to his mother again, before leaving the banyan garden where his mother lived at the urging of his mother, and walked forward along the back garden path, preparing to go directly through the second gate into the front yard study to deal with official business. At the beginning of this year, he was just transferred back to Kyoto from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he joined the Ministry of Industry as a Langzhong, and he had just entered the Sixth Ministry of Governance.

Mother is sensible and open-minded, different from ordinary women's families, talking with his mother, he still has three points of frivolity, self-contained heart, but he is stable again, holding the short beard that has just grown, and his expression is slightly revealed.

He is almost halfway through the age of Chinese New Year's Eve, and he has also achieved meritorious deeds, has a good wife, has four sons and five daughters, and is now full of children. He can have today, thanks to his mother's hard work, taking care of the housework, rectifying and maintaining the family property, taking care of relatives' contacts, providing him with education and reasoning, gaining academic fame, marrying a good wife for him, and spreading the branches.

Although the old saying goes, the son does not say anything about the father, but when he was a child, his father's failure made his family suffer a lot of twists and turns. The young father was mourned, but the father was just a noun, and these family businesses were also maintained by the mother and his wife.

To put it mildly, if it weren't for his father's early departure, according to his temperament of being idle, idle, and unproductive, it would be difficult to leave a tile to cover himself with him and his mother, not to mention that he could still have such a mansion with three entrances and three exits with a small garden across the courtyard in Kyoto!

Yes, his maiden is filial, and he should be! The Heavenly Family also advocates filial piety, and the Holy One also governs the country with filial piety. Now he can finally seal his mother, earn a life for her, and call him an old man, and call him an old lady at home, so that his mother's children and grandchildren can be around her knees in her later years, and she will be happy, which can be regarded as a little filial piety.

The faint fragrance of plum came, and he was also interested in looking for incense to track, and in the depths of the path, a clump of old plum forest appeared in his line of sight, which turned out to be the piece of iron plum planted by himself when he was a child.

Mother likes plum blossoms and is proud of Ling Ran, this piece of iron bone plum trees that are connected into a dense plum forest is still after his father's funeral, afraid that his mother will be sad, in order to relieve his mother's own hands. Now unconsciously, it has been twenty or thirty years of time in a hurry, the roots and branches of the old plum tree are vigorous, and in this garden, it has developed a solid foundation, which is really like him growing step by step.

Just as Shen Sicheng was admiring the proud plum and reminiscing about the past, across the crisscrossed and lush branches of the old plum tree, there was a noisy whispering sound from the corner, and he couldn't help but twist his eyebrows slightly when he was disturbed. At the end of the recent New Year's Festival, Mrs. is busy, and then this person who seizes the opportunity to be lazy will find a vacancy! It's just that some of the content from the wind made him signal the attendant to hold the inkstone and stop scolding.

"Sister Shuangzhi, Sister Shuangzhi, I really ask you to help, as long as an ordinary Ele size, our girl just wants to do her filial piety for her parents, you can help with this filial piety, please help!" A voice full of pleading voices came from far and near. The sound of hurried footsteps, one after the other, the figures chased to the other end of the little merlin, covered by the lush branches of the old merlin, but the two people at the other end did not see Shen Sicheng and his party here.

Looking through the faint gap in the plum branches, with the title in the words, Shen Sicheng thought for a while, and recognized that one of the maidservants wearing a pink bikina should be the big girl in charge of clothes and jewelry next to his wife, and the girl in the courtyard opposite who was wearing a whitish plain green jacket skirt was the girl from the courtyard He had no impression of it, and it sounded like a girl waiting next to his daughter.

This child is worthy of being his child, he knows filial piety so well, and there is a woman like this, Shen Sicheng, who attaches great importance to filial piety, is very satisfied. It's just that why wouldn't it be more convenient to ask her mother directly? Is there a shortage of money in the house? The big girl's dress was not as good as the poor people he saw casually, he remembered that his wife had always been well-managed, well-organized, sympathetic, and appreciated from top to bottom, so that he was very relieved even if he was sharpened by outsiders!

"Juan Bi, it's not that I'm ruthless and don't help, it's really unreasonable, the old lady's information, that's extremely important, entrust me that trusts me, I can't live up to this trust, these sizes, I really can't give it to you! What's more, you don't know the taboo of the old lady, the four girls were approved by the Taoist priest to hinder the parent, so don't bother with this thought! ”

This is Shuangzhi's arrogant refusal, but what he said earlier is quite reasonable, but he has lost his warmth, the other party is his own daughter, and he is not an outsider, why is it so delayed! Later, it will become more and more unseemly.

Four girls, four girls, Shen Sicheng groaned, this should be his second daughter, born near the New Year, named the four girls of Fang Nian! Mother and Mrs. said that the four girls were born prematurely and were not in good health, and they had avoided living in the boudoir since they were young, and they were busy after returning to Beijing, and it was difficult for them to enter the backyard during menstruation, and he had not seen this daughter yet!

"The girl was just born at the wrong time, just in time. She is a newborn villain, who can she hinder? The nonsense of such street wandering Taoist priests doesn't know that they were instructed and slandered by that person who has a bad heart! ”

"Otherwise, now the girl is also six or seven years old, although she does not meet with her relatives, in the end she lives in the same house, the old lady and Mrs. are not also healthy, and the young masters and girls are also healthy.

"What's more, after Mrs. has four girls, and then there are four young masters and five girls, a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, and the old lady and Mrs. Shun lì seal... Because of such a coincidence, we girls are so tired that we girls are almost banned from the building, isolated from the world, not seen with our relatives, and we are not as good as ... ”

The girl in the plain green jacket skirt is called Curly Bi, and she is a loyal cuckoo crying blood, but every sentence is true, he usually doesn't care about the inner house, the trivial affairs at home, and the upbringing of his daughter are all entrusted to his wife. Especially in recent years, he has been placed in a foreign place, and it is rare for him to come back after many years, so he ignores almost this second daughter who is not too impressed.
