Although Shen Simin was cold, he never rudely treated the second room, so Fahrenheit went with him.

The two of them went out of the Bishui Courtyard and went to Lingzhou Garden.

Shen Simin took Du Jun to greet Shen Guanyu in Yaori Hall.

Shen Guanyu was very happy to see Du Jun, but Du Jun was also angry, and he responded decently and generously, showing everyone's style.

Just without saying a few words, Du Jun began to cough. At first, he forcibly endured one or two sounds, but then he seemed to be unable to hold back, so he could only cough continuously.

Seeing this, Shen Guanyu couldn't help asking, "What's wrong?" ”

Shen Simin couldn't help but reddened his eyes when he heard the question. Shen Guanyu asked again, and she raised her head and said, "When Brother Jun entered the mansion today, he entered the door with a potted plant for his father, and accidentally bumped into Sister Yan'er, and was pushed down in the muddy water by Sister Yan'er. Brother Jun walked to Lingzhou Garden with a body of cold water and caught a cold. ”

"Sister Yan'er?"

Shen Guanyu frowned and was silent, "How could she treat Brother Jun like this?" ”

"I don't know." Shen Simin smiled bitterly, "Maybe it's unintentional?" As he spoke, he picked up the tea that had been dried and handed it to him.

Shen Guanyu took the tea, groaned, and then looked at Du Jun, but said softly: "It's cold and frozen, it's easy to catch a cold." Your mother said that you walk around every day, how can you do without a good body? It just so happened that the day before yesterday, Rong Guogong next door gave me two martial arts booklets, which are for physical fitness, and I practice against the above movements every morning and evening, and it will be beneficial for a long time. You take it! ”

Du Jun hurriedly pondered: "Jun'er thanked my grandfather!" ”

Shen Guanyu smiled and nodded, here Shen Simin stroked his son's arm, smiled gently, and took him to say goodbye.

Back at Lingzhou Garden, Du Jun asked his mother, "Why didn't my mother go on?" ”

Shen Simin sat down on the soft couch, groaned, looked at him and said, "Your grandfather is a very powerful person, some things need to be said to others, only two words are enough in front of him." You have to remember to contact with the strong, the more you want to show it, the more you have to stop in moderation. ”

Du Jun frowned and nodded: "Mother means that we don't have to care about today's affairs?" ”

"No, it's not that I don't care." Shen Simin retracted his gaze, "But that's not the point. Do you know why I brought you to Jingshi? ”

Du Jun thought for a while, "It's for the future of the child." ”

"To be precise, it's for the future of the Du family." Shen Simin's brows furrowed deeper, and his expression became more melancholy, "The Du family is a huge family, and now only your father is in charge. And my father is already thirty-four this year, although he is well educated but has very little qualifications, and the Du family resisted the Zhou family in every possible way, so he will definitely not get a good future.

"This time I went to Beijing to report on my work, I guess most of them were also sent to other places to be a sixth- or seventh-grade magistrate. Later, it will be too late for him to shine. It is impossible for the Du family to regain its prestige in your father's generation. But it can't always go on like this, in the future, the ancestral industry will be passed on to your uncle, and our house, as well as your cousins, must shoulder the heavy responsibility of revitalizing the Du family. ”

Seeing that his mother said so solemnly, Du Jun couldn't help but be stern, "Isn't our family planning to support the Zhou room anymore?" How to go down this road again? ”

Shen Simin sighed, then shook his head with a wry smile: "It sounds good to say that it is one of the four great families, but the Du family has only been an empty shell over the years." There are no protégés and no scholars, although they do not worry about food and clothing by relying on their ancestral business, they have actually become squires and others, so if they go on, how can they be worthy of the family education inheritance of so many generations of ancestors?

"The Zhou Chamber has been established for more than ten years, we are planting the land of the Zhou Chamber, and drinking the water of the Zhou Dynasty's royal soil, and it is useless to mention the solar terms at the moment. And not only our family, but also the Xie family and the Qiu family have faintly had such thoughts in recent years. Last year, two cousins of the Xie family were admitted to the birth test, and one of the Qiu family's side branches also participated in the examination.

"Although they are not descendants, this is a move to ask for directions. If my guess is correct, when the next session is examined, the Xie Qiu family will definitely have descendants of the two families to take the exam. In this case, how can the Du family lag behind? Because of your grandfather, your father became the first person in the three families to receive the imperial grain of the Zhou family, so you should naturally catch up. ”

After listening to this, Du Jun couldn't help but feel awe-inspired, "I thought that my mother had urged me to study since I was a child, and sent me to travel around Huizhou just to dote, but I didn't think that there was such a deep meaning in it." So what should children do now? ”

Shen Simin stroked his shoulder and said proudly: "You are a smart child, I naturally want to show you a clear path." Do you know what you have more than the children of the Xie Qiu family? It's the Shen family's big backer! Now your maternal grandfather is an important minister in the court, and your two uncles are in the Ministry of Rites and the other in the Sixth Branch, both of which are important positions. Your second uncle is even more talented and knowledgeable, and is deeply appreciated by the emperor.

"Although the Shen family's identity is still a little embarrassing, it has gradually faded under the management of your grandfather and uncle over the years. Some time ago, your grandfather took the initiative to give the virtuous to Liu Ge Lao in the cabinet dispute, this move not only gathered popularity for the Shen family, but also stabilized the Shen family's position in the court, and the Shen family will inevitably be like a rainbow in the future.

"Jun'er has such a unique condition, so she naturally has to make good use of it. Don't mention the matter between you and Sister Yan'er, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan, your second uncle loves this daughter very much, we can't get along with her, it will inevitably cause your uncle to be annoyed, and we are already guests after all, complaining too much in front of your grandfather will only make him think that you have a low vision. ”

Du Jun nodded as if he didn't understand, and then said: "But even if I am good in the Shen family, it will only be a little time, and I am still young, how can I get my grandfather's attention for a long time?" ”

"That's what I'm here for!"

Shen Simin stood up, looked out the window at the dark night and said, "I will find a way to enable you to stay in the Shen family until you take the exam and get a good rank!" After saying that, she looked back at him, stretched out her hand and took him under her arm, and said, "Although my mother was once the master of this place, she is now a guest after all, and I was not worried when your grandmother was not sick, but now—in short, you must be obedient, and do not cause trouble again." ”

"The child knows."

Du Jun agreed, and when he lowered his head, he remembered Shen Yan's cold face, and couldn't help but droop his head down again.

As soon as the mother and son spoke here, Shen Mi and Hua came to visit Du Jun.

Hua picked out a lot of cold warding pills, and Shen Simin thanked him lightly and accepted them. She and Shen Mi didn't seem to have anything more to say, of course, maybe it was because of Hua's presence, so the two sat down and said goodbye. Hua Shi never saw Shen Simin have any love for that incident during the day, and he admires her a little.

The next morning, she said to Shen Yan: "No matter what your aunt thinks of me, but I finally let people see a little bit of the wife of the family, and those in our family - your eldest aunt is better, although she has no bad intentions, but she always has some small calculations, and she can't be on the table." In the end, your aunt walked out of the Shen family, and the background is different. ”

After speaking, he added: "Of course, I'm actually not a celebrity lady." "The temper is too big.

Shen Yan held the porridge bowl and looked at her: "It's good that you know." ”

After speaking, she thought about it seriously, and she really didn't have a deep impression of this in-law who was far away in Huizhou, and only vaguely remembered that a few years later, their family also had children who became officials, and the three families of Du Xie Qiu were admired by the world's scholars with their style and integrity, and finally they were gradually assimilated, of course, this is the inevitability of history, and no family can be loyal to a certain monarch until the family loses its children and grandchildren.

Unless, of course, self-poke.

After two generations of emperors and more than ten years of being a citizen of the Zhou family, it is only a matter of time before the children of the three families of Du Xie Qiu who are full of poetry and books should take the exam.

However, she doesn't remember where Du Ruchen's official position has become. But what is certain is that it must not be a prominent official position, otherwise how could she not be impressed?

But judging from the fact that Shen Guanyu had already worshiped Shangshu in his previous life and was ranked among the ministers, it should be very easy for him to promote his son-in-law.

And Du Ruchen should also be a well-educated person in theory, why wasn't he brought up? Shen Simin is Shen Guanyu's only daughter, judging from the appearance of the past two days, it is indeed dignified and atmospheric, the Du family's family style is also very upright, and Du Ruchen's character should be reliable. It is speculated that Shen Guanyu will never suppress his son-in-law because of some inconvenient reasons from them.

On the contrary, the four families have always had a close relationship, not a hostile relationship, and he should in turn greatly help the Du family to become a help for him and the Shen family in the court, only in this way will the Shen family gradually form its own power in the court, and thus become deep-rooted. Since Du Ruchen has not been reused, what about the rest of the Du family?

In her previous life, the focus was not on the court, so she really can't remember it.

Fahrenheit patted her on the head, "What are you doing in a daze?" ”

Shen Yan raised his head from the porridge bowl: "Why hasn't my uncle entered Beijing yet?" ”

When Fahrenheit heard this, he also paused, folded his hands, and said, "Hurry, right?" I will come to Beijing before the twentieth day of the lunar month. ”

Shen Yan nodded. She had to do her best to start with her uncle to achieve the goal of protecting the Hua family first.

The matter with Du Jun passed like this, and Shen Yan did not meet him for a few days later. The Shen Mansion is so big, as long as they don't make trouble themselves, except for the times when they walk around each other, the relatives who come actually have little to do with each other. Shen Yan still followed Gu Song to catch birds in the woods, and then took a bamboo cage and went to the hillside behind Xiangguo Temple with Lu Silan to release them.

Gu Song doesn't like to play with children other than her, I don't know if it's because of cleanliness or arrogant temperament, which makes her a little helpless.

She still hopes that he can have more friends, and then be able to take over the position of Rong Guogong freely in the future and take care of this ancestral business. Because in the future, if he takes a capable wife, he is only afraid that he will be a little aggrieved if he is not good at expressing himself, and if he takes a weak wife, neither of them has any means, how can they support this business?

Shen Yan felt that she was a little too worried about him, but she couldn't help it, who made him her friend? R1152
