498 [Visiting Relatives]
Zhengde twenty-one winter.
Huang Ke is sick.
It's old, it's inevitable, and it's estimated that time is running out.
Wang Yuan took his wife back to her parents' house to visit, holding his son Wang Su in his hand, and Huang E was still pregnant with one in his belly.
"Brother-in-law, second sister!" Huang Qiao was in charge of greeting. After this product took the initiative to resign, he has been taking care of his parents at home, reading poetry and books in his spare time, occasionally going out to participate in literary meetings, and living a more chic life than being an official.
Entering the room, Huang Ke was lying on the bed, and Mrs. Nie served him to take medicine.
"Ruoxu and Mei'er are here, sit down, sit down!" Mrs. Nie greeted warmly.
Wang Yuan hurriedly saluted and asked about his father-in-law's condition.
Huang Ke smiled: "It's okay, it's just that I'm getting older, and the old bones are a little disobedient." ”
After chatting for a while, Huang E followed his mother to talk privately, and Wang Yuan talked to his father-in-law about the court.
As for Wang Su, playing with his cousin Huang Ruohuai, the two boys are of the same age, and they are both quite smart, and they are both the seeds of the next generation of reading.
After some time, Huang Yu and Huang Feng's two brothers-in-law went home.
Huang Yu has already married and had children, and he was easily admitted to the lifting of people, and most of them will be able to be a jinshi in the future.
Huang Feng is a little worse, at the age of sixteen, he is barely a talent, and his qualifications for the imperial examination are really limited, so he will take at most one person in this life.
Huang Feng was at the dinner table, and suddenly said: "Brother-in-law, do you know the science of ballistics?" ”
Wang Yuan almost choked on the rice, and said with a smile: "It's just a parabolic movement." ”
"No," Huang Feng said, "the study of ballistics is divided into internal ballistics and external ballistics. Although the internal trajectory is very short, only from the breech to the muzzle, the force is very complex. ”
Wang Yuan was surprised: "Who is studying this?" It's quite expensive. ”
Huang Feng said: "Master Lin." I have already worshipped Master Lin as a teacher, and studied artillery with Master Lin, and the study of ballistics was proposed by Master Lin. ”
Wang Yuan smiled bitterly: "Master Lin is really ...... It's really worse than me. ”
Bachelor Lin is Lin Jun, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy and the head of the house. After this thing came into contact with physics, he didn't want to persuade the emperor anymore, and spent all day studying cannons at his own expense at the Institute of Physics. He is 75 years old this year, and not only did he study mathematics and physics, but he also started his own ballistics.
It's pitiful to see that the dean of the Hanlin Academy, the big guy who wrote the holy decree to the emperor, is actually a cannon casting master!
Huang Feng said excitedly: "Master Lin took a few of our brothers and sisters and is currently improving the Furlong machine gun. Once the improvement is successful, the problem of insufficient air tightness can be solved, and it can be eroded for dozens of miles at that time. ”
Wang Yuan could only say: "This is a military weapon, if the silver is not enough, you can go to my house to withdraw it." ”
Huang Feng said: "Enough, Master Lin is rich." ”
Of course there is money, this old gentleman can make his own cannons to play, can he be a poor money master?
In the evening, Wang Yuan took his wife and children and returned home before the curfew.
As soon as he arrived at home, the servant said, "Master, my aunt's house has sent someone to report the good news, and it has been two hours." The young lady gave birth smoothly, and the mother and child were safe. ”
Wang Yuan was quite happy: "At this moment, there is already a curfew, let the person who announces the good news rest in the house, and give him some reward." ”
The younger sister Wang Wei got married three years ago, and her husband is Yang Rui, a disciple of the School of Physics. Jinyi Wei, his father is Jinyi Wei Qianhu. Yang Rui has been admitted to the lifting of people, but unfortunately he will try to be the first twice in a row, and his character is relatively upright, and he studies physics all day in addition to reading.
The next day, Wang Yuan took Song Ling'er again to visit the little sister who had just given birth.
The husband's parents are naturally warmly hospitable, and the younger sister has only given birth to a child in the past three years after marriage, and they dare not take a concubine for their son. As long as Wang Yuan does not fall, Yang Rui will not be able to take a concubine in his life, who makes the status of the two sides so disparity.
The daughter of Li Xian, the first assistant of the Chenghua Dynasty, was miserable, and she actually married Kong Hongxu, the prince of Yansheng.
That Yan Shenggong likes to play SM, and illegally sheltered more than 40 Lehu women at home, and accidentally strangled four of them. The daughter of Shoufu is so beautiful, she is married to such a husband, and it is sad to think about it in ordinary times.
Li Dongyang still doesn't believe in evil, he has three daughters, two of whom died young, leaving only one daughter, and married another Yan Shenggong. A few years after getting married, I died of illness when I went back to my parents' house to visit relatives, and I don't know if I usually have a good time.
If you really want to marry a girl and a sister, it is better to choose a small family.
"Is my sister okay?" Wang Yuan asked.
Wang smiled and said, "Okay, my in-laws love me very much." ”
Song Ling'er said directly: "If you don't like it, come to the house and say it, and your sister-in-law will get justice for you!" ”
Wang Wei's mother-in-law, Fan, was standing next to her at the moment, sweating on her forehead when she heard it.
The flat wife in Wang Shangshu's family has long been famous in the capital, who doesn't know, who doesn't know?
Song Ling'er brought a maid from Guizhou, with a big waist and a round waist, and more than a dozen personal guards, all of whom were men who had seen blood. On weekdays, when she was idle and bored, Song Linger took her maids and guards, rode horses and galloped around the suburbs of Beijing, and often went to the Nanhaizi royal hunting ground to hunt.
Last year was even more interesting, a group of thugs in the capital kidnapped women, and the woman escaped and shouted for help. It happened that Song Ling'er rode by, and after asking about the matter, she immediately took the maid and the guards to kill, hacked two to death on the spot, and carried the bloody head, and went through the streets and alleys to report to the official in Shuntianfu.
threw his head at the mansion, so frightened that the soap official trembled, Song Ling'er rode a horse and shouted: "Yan Song come out to try the case quickly, you Shuntian Mansion Yin is confused, there are such villains in the capital who don't know, just go home and plant sweet potatoes!" ”
This incident is known all over the city, and it is said that Wang Erlang's wife is a well-known heroine. Even, Song Ling'er led troops to quell the chaos in Guizhou, and the fact that he once commanded tens of thousands of troops has spread quickly in the capital.
Poor Yan Song has become a folk tale background board, and is even nicknamed "Sweet Potato Mansion Yin".
Wang Wei saw that her mother-in-law's face was embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law doesn't have to be careful, my sister is very good at her husband's house." ”
Song Ling'er said: "Forgive them and don't dare to bully you!" ”
Fan hurriedly smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, madam, please rest assured." ”
Song Ling'er gave up and ran to tease her newborn nephew, but as soon as she got started, the baby cried.
Fan felt sorry for his grandson, and he didn't dare to step forward to stop him, so he could only stand there and be anxious.
Staying at home for a meal, and finally sending this living ancestor away, the whole Yang family breathed a sigh of relief.
At the end of the year, Huang Ke resigned due to illness, and Li Qi, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, followed suit.
Lin Jun also jumped out to join in the fun, he was busy improving the artillery, how could he have the leisure to take charge of the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Room?
At this time, Zhu Houzhao's anger also dissipated most of it, and seeing that Huang Ke was really sick, and the other two were also old, they simply agreed.
The three major job vacancies immediately strained the relationship between Wang Yuan and Yang Tinghe.
Wang Yuan recommended Wang Zhan, the left attendant of the military department, to take charge of the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Palace. He also recommended Wang Yangming and was transferred to the head of the household department. Recommend the book again, and transfer to the Ministry of Engineering.
Yang Tinghe recommended the right capital Yu Shi Jin Xianmin, who was in charge of the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial House. Recommend Zuodu Yu Shi Pengze, transferred to the head of the household book. Recommend Wang Jun, the left waiter of the Criminal Department, and transfer to the Ministry of Engineering.
They all want to promote their own people, and no one wants to let go!
