The current Longfu temple fair is different from the major temple fairs in the capital during the Spring Festival that Shen Rui has seen in later generations. The temple fairs of later generations are mainly based on "eating, drinking, and playing Tesco", and now the temple fairs are more meaningful to worship the Buddha.

However, because it is during the New Year, there are many people who burn incense and worship the Buddha, and there are also various businesses outside the temple, which is similar to the Buddha's birthday temple fair that Shen Rui saw in Songjiang before, but the scale is much larger.

Shen Jue begged Shen Qi, saying that he would come to the temple to meet and understand.

Thinking that the official heir day was not far away, Longfu Temple was in the main workshop, and Shen Jian was a little more indulgent to his younger brother, so he responded to his request.

However, Shen Jue's suggestion that he brought Shen Rui and Shen Dong out, was rejected by Shen Ji.

Three and a half children, their own sons are not sleek, and the two younger brothers are new to the capital, how can Shen Ji let them go out with peace of mind.

After breakfast in the second year of junior high school, Shen Ji brought Shen Jue, Shen Rui and Shen Dong out.

There are dozens of temples in the capital that are full of incense on the first day, although Longfu Temple is famous, there are many people gathered, but it is not as chaotic as imagined.

Renshoufang is considered to be a square close to the imperial city, and the people who live here are mainly wealthy and official eunuchs, and ordinary people mostly live in the outer city from the southern city circle

When you come to the temple fair, you have to burn incense and worship the Buddha, even if Shen Ji is a Confucian protégé, today he also "follows the customs".

Thousands of pilgrims gathered outside Longfu Temple, and the novice monks brought novice guides to line up to burn incense.

Shen Rui and others also went over to line up, and it took more than an hour before and after half of the incense fell before they finished burning the incense and squeezed out of the crowd.

The first half of the street in Longfu Temple is full of all kinds of food stalls, Shen Ji is also a teenager here, naturally he will not rigidly not allow a few small ones to eat outside, but the cold wind is fierce outside, where dare they stand directly in the wind like others to eat, they have to pack one stall after another, and get a lot of snacks and snacks that have never been seen in the south and bring them back.

The group returned to Shen Ji's house early.

Ordinary uncles and sisters-in-law also need to be avoided, but the eldest son of the eldest grandmother is half a year older than Shen Jue and Shen Rui, and the age difference is too much, Shen Jue and Shen Rui are young, but there is no need to avoid too much.

The grandmother directly asked people to heat up the snacks and snacks, and set up a table in the warm pavilion of the upper room, and called the two uncles and several children.

Milk fruit, butter fried noodles, beef, rye nest head...... These or the food that came from the Mongols were not available in the south, and even the Shen Dong brothers were also the first to see them.

It's that the grandmother said before, let everyone taste it, and the province can't eat it at dinner, but as soon as the grandmother leaves, everyone has a few chopsticks and a dozen servings of various foods, and they also eat seven, seven, eight, eight.

In the end, whether it is cakes or fried fruits, the taste is not new, but in order to be soft and delicious, sugar is put in, and children love to eat it. A sweet-loving person like Shen Jue is even more like a mouse falling into a rice tank.

Shen Rui has no love for sweets, chewed half a strip of beef, and slowly dealt with half a bowl of butter fried noodles.

Shen Jue couldn't hold it anymore, and he was so angry that he held it up in the end, and rubbed his stomach crookedly to the side.

The two little girls of the Shen Machinery family looked at the rules and ate like Sven. Even if he didn't eat much, his eyes were still a little unaverted, but seeing that Shen Jue's uncle had run out, Shen Rui's uncle also ate noodle tea one by one, Shen Dong followed and put down the chopsticks, and the two little sisters also put down the chopsticks.

Shen Ji's second daughter, Sister Hui, is only six years old, but she is more lively than her sister Sister Ning.

Seeing Shen Jue's uncomfortable appearance on his face, Sister Hui leaned over and patted his stomach gently: "Fifth uncle, fly in pain, fly in pain"

Shen Jue was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and touched his stomach, looking a little stunned.

Shen Dong was beside him and scolded his sister: "How can you do it with the fifth uncle?" ”

Sister Hui was taken aback, and tears began to roll in her eyes.

Shen Jue laughed repeatedly, reached out to pick up the little niece, put it on his lap and said, "It really doesn't hurt, Sister Haohui, pat the fifth uncle again"

When Sister Hui heard this, her eyes lit up, she stretched out her little fat hand, and patted Shen Jue's stomach twice: "Fly in pain, fly in pain, Fifth Uncle doesn't hurt anymore"

The room was full of immature children's voices, as well as Shen Jue's cheerful laughter.

When the grandmother came in, she saw her little daughter sitting on Shen Jue's lap, and said with a small mouth: "Mother touched me like this...... It really doesn't hurt anymore, didn't the fifth uncle say? ”

Grandma shook her head and said, "This kid is really crazy...... Come down, don't make trouble with your fifth uncle" The latter sentence was said to Sister Hui with a straight face.

Sister Hui got up and down from Shen Jue's knees, stuck out her tongue, and whispered, "I didn't make trouble with Fifth Uncle...... I love my fifth uncle, just as my mother hurts me...

This little girl's "unashamed" sentence made everyone laugh out loud.

Grandma Mechanic stretched out her finger and pointed at her little daughter's forehead: "Talking nonsense again, you are a niece, you should honor your fifth uncle, your fifth uncle has your grandfather and grandmother." ”

Listening to the children's words, Shen Rui's heart was much happier when he heard it. However, when looking at Shen Jue, Shen Jue still noticed his strangeness.

At this time, I heard the grandmother say: "Second Uncle Rui, Fifth Uncle, if you run out, go to the study in the front yard to find your eldest brother, and the eldest brother will come to you if he has something." ”

The two had finished eating, and a maidservant brought clean water, rinsed their mouths, and then left the warm pavilion and went to the study in the front yard together.

"But homesick again?" Shen Jue saw Shen Jue's dazed expression and asked.

Shen Jue shook his head and laughed at himself: "In the early years, I read that Yun Meisheng was not liked by his biological mother in the history books, and he hated him to death, and I still think it was an exaggeration...... When I grew up in the past two years, I realized what it meant that five fingers were long and short. I don't know if my eldest brother and second brother hurt them when they were young, I haven't seen them here......"

There was a sense of depression in these words, and Shen Rui said: "Even if you are a parent, you are still a human after all." As long as they are human, they have likes and dislikes, and parents in this world are just ordinary people, not saints...... My lord is not the same, he values the eldest son and disdains me, the second son."

Shen Jue turned his head and looked at Shen Rui, feeling that since Shen Rui had suffered a trial, this unfairness in his heart was nothing.

He said "Ha Lu Ha" twice, put his hand on Shen Rui's shoulder and said: "Listening to Brother Rui's words, one of us is hated by a mother and a father, but it is difficult to be a brother and a brother."

Shen Rui snorted lightly: "It's the second brother Rui in front of the person, and no one has time to call the title again?" You are not afraid to show your mouth in front of your eldest brother, be careful to be reprimanded again."

Shen Jue's face showed fear: "I haven't seen my eldest brother for a few years, my eldest brother is becoming more and more rigid, and I am really afraid of him."

When he came back last night, Shen Jue called Shen Rui "Brother Rui" casually, and was instructed by Shen Ji'er, and then asked him to copy the four words "brother, friend, brother and brother" a hundred times.

In the study, Shen Ji sealed the family letter that had been written.

The second old man returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, which is different from the eldest wife's return to his hometown and relatives. The eldest lady went back to Suzhou Province to pro-provincial relatives, and by the way, she went back to her home in Songjiang; The second master went back this time, in addition to worshipping the ancestors, he also finalized the status of the heir.

Zongfang was there, so it was natural to get the news first, so it was better to prepare early.

He rubbed his temples, and in his heart he was not only melancholy for his brother to become a clan brother, but also a little happy that there was a link between the sect and the second room, and it was even deeper.

Whether it's Shen Rui or Shen Jue, it's there every year, but it's thirteen years old, and when he is admitted step by step, it will take more than ten years of hard work, and the eldest man in the second room is more than half a hundred years old, just for the sake of his heirs and nephews, and he will also promote his nephews to do and strength.

Among the several jade characters of the Shen family in Beijing, Shen Li has his back to the Prime Minister's Mansion and does not need to borrow the power of the second room; Shen Qi is still a person, and he can't mention it if he wants to, and the rest of the candidates are him and Shen Ying in the fifth room.

Shen Ying is still in the Shuchang Courtyard, and there is still a year and a half left in the Separation Hall, so there is no need to mention it for the time being. In this way, the only candidate who can support the second room is himself. He is the grandson of the Shen family, the brother of Brother Jue, and it is a good thing for Shen Rui and Shen Jue to go further.

After the second master, he returned to Songjiang, and it stands to reason that Shen Jue and Shen Rui should also go back, but the eldest master means that the two little brothers are young and can't bear to travel long distances, so there is no need to go back.

But if this is the heir, there must always be someone and two novels.

Just thinking about his origin, a little servant came in and said, "Uncle, the second master and the fifth master are here." ”

Shen Ji nodded and called in.

Seeing Shen Jue grinning, Shen Ji couldn't help but have a headache.

Although this younger brother is lazy, he has always had an idea. He had also tested Shen Jue before, and knew that his younger brother was not interested in the second heir.

Now it is also taking advantage of Shen Rui's presence, Shen Machinery Fang Hao mentioned this matter to Shen Jue. Otherwise, there are only two brothers, and Shen Ji is really hard to speak. Otherwise, if Shen Jue is unwilling, should he persuade or not?

Although the two are siblings, because the age difference is too far away, Shen Ji has been away from his hometown for many years, and they are actually not close.

"Big brother called us, but do you have something to say?" Shen Jue saw that Shen Ji didn't speak for a while, but he felt inexplicable and asked.

Shen Ji came to his senses and pointed to the two chairs in front of the bookcase: "It's a long story, you sit first." ”

Shen Rui and Shen Jue sat down, Shen Jue was still confused, but Shen Rui had a faint score in his heart.

What can make Shen Ji so difficult to speak, apart from Shen Jue's succession?

It seems that the eldest man of the second room has already made a decision and chose Shen Jue as his heir.

Shen Jian should also know the identity of his little third-room heir, otherwise he would not avoid himself.

Seeing that Shen Jian wanted to speak and stopped, Shen Jue was a little uneasy: "What is the difficulty of the eldest brother?" What can't you say? ”

As he spoke, his heart suddenly hung in the air.

His face was white, and he stood up: "Big brother, but there is a letter from Songjiang over there, it won't be ...... It won't be ......"

Shen Ji was taken aback by his reaction, and when he realized what he said, he glared at him and said: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, and he doesn't want to be good and at ease during the New Year, everything is fine at home."

Shen Jue snorted lightly and sat down: "Who made the eldest brother look heavy and hesitated, but it seems that he has encountered something big......"
