Guo's sentence stunned everyone when they heard it.

All the young people of the Shen family couldn't help but look at Shen Rui, the "Sister Sun" who could make the Guo family so moved, except for the late aunt of the four houses, there was no one else.

Shen Rui couldn't help but squint his eyes, didn't he say that there was only one huge rich father in the Sun family, who had already passed away, and there was no one else? Who is this woman in front of you? can marry a woman, even if it is not a close relative, it is almost the same, why haven't you heard anyone mention it?

And Zhu Yunming and Wei Xiao, who were standing behind the Xu family, were also surprised in their hearts, before coming to Songjiang before, they only knew that their aunt was going to visit the Zong family, and they had never heard their aunt mention anything.

I listened to Xu's words: "It is the old body, when I sent Min Niang to get married, Mrs. Hong was still a bride in a red dress, and it will be thirty years in a blink of an eye, and the children and grandchildren are full, you are a blessed one." Speaking of the most gloomy, there was a little bit of amazement.

Guo Shi choked and said: "Sister Xu is late, Min Niang has been gone for three years. ”

Xu sighed: "She is too stubborn. If you send me news as soon as possible, you won't let Brother Rui suffer the sin of the future. Speaking of this, he glanced at Shen Rui lovingly and said, "Brother Rui is very well educated, you and Shen Li have bothered." ”

Guo Shi lowered his head to wipe away his tears and said, "I didn't do anything, Brother Rui has been guarding filial piety in the Zen Academy in the past few years, and Brother Li will take care of it." ”

The door was not a place to speak, so Guo welcomed Xu into the private room.

Sister Fu is four years old, which is the age of being lively and active, and she is impatient to wait inside, so she has already run outside the screen to wait. However, "Hulala" came in and frightened the little girl, and she hurriedly ran behind Guo's family, revealing half of her little head, looking at Shen Rui, and whispering: "Second brother Rui......"

Shen Rui smiled at Sister Fu, and when Shen Jue saw this, he teased in a low voice: "Sister Fu remembers Brother Rui, don't you remember the fifth brother?" ”

Sister Fu looked at him twice, and Fang whispered: "Fifth brother......"

Looking at such a white and lovely little girl, Xu smiled lovingly: "This is your little girl?" It's younger than her nephew. ”

When Sister Fu heard the adults speak, she was already standing next to Guo Shi honestly.

Guo Shi listened to Xu's words a little strangely, but thinking that she still knew Shen Li, he thought that she had inquired about the affairs of Songjiang before she came, and knew the situation of each family, so she pulled Sister Fu and said: "This is my old girl, who gave Min Niang a contract girl, if she hadn't given half her life to give birth to her, she wouldn't have used Min Niang's half of life-saving ginseng."

Obviously, she felt deeply guilty about this matter, and after several years, she still looked gloomy when she mentioned it.

Xu shook his head and said, "You think about it too much, it's all fate." Although ginseng is a good thing, sometimes it can save emergencies, but it is not a cure-all. Min Niang was good friends with you before her death, and she was willing to give you ginseng, and if you think about it so much, it will be difficult for her to live in peace. ”

Guo Shi wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "It's me who was rude."

As soon as the young man of the Shen family was waiting to give the Guo family a gift, seeing that the greetings between the two elders had come to an end, they all stepped forward and said, "My nephew has seen the eldest aunt (eldest uncle), please let the eldest aunt (eldest uncle) be safe." ”

Guo Shi hurriedly shouted, glanced at Xu, and said to the young men: "This is the maiden family of Brother Rui's mother, you should call Aunt Xu......"

Without waiting for the young people to salute, Xu shook his head and said, "Although I am considered to be Min Niangniang's family, they should not call me aunt, but should be called aunt or aunt."

When Guo heard this, his face was puzzled, and he really didn't know where this title began.

Xu smiled slightly and said: "My maiden name is Xu, but she is also the wife of Shenmen, and my sister can be called the old sister-in-law." ”

Zhu Yunming and the others knew the identity of the Xu family, of course they would not be surprised, and several Shen teenagers were a little dumbfounded.

In the name of "Cang", there is only one person in the Shen family, and that is Shen Cang, the second-room eldest man with the highest official quality in the entire Shen family.

Shen Rui also showed a little surprise on his face, but he seemed to understand a little in his heart, since the Sun family was born in a businessman, why did he get the Zongfang grandfather to be the matchmaker back then, and she has also been protected by the Zongfang grandfather many times over the years, it turns out that she has a relationship with the second room in the capital. And this relationship should be extraordinary, and the Xu family, who was the eldest daughter-in-law of the second room, personally went to Songjiang to marry.

However, as the wife of the Shen family, when she arrived at Songjiang's house, she only showed the identity of Mrs. Xu, not the daughter-in-law of the second room, and no one recognized it in Songjiang, which shows that the relationship between the second room and the Songjiang clan was more distant and unfamiliar.

"Cang, Cang's sister-in-law...... I didn't know the identity of the eldest sister-in-law, and the concubine was rude, so I asked my sister-in-law to forgive her sins. Guo's heart was also surprised, and he got up to see the ceremony again, between the concubines of the same clan, the sister-in-law is the honorable position, and the number of rites is heavier.

Xu also got up to return the salute, and then pulled Guo to sit down and said, "It's not strange if you don't know." At that time, Xianweng was alive, so I was the daughter-in-law, and I had to obey. I also ask my brother-in-law not to bother me with hiding my identity first. ”

Guo remembered the past, the female relatives of the clan thought that Sun was a merchant woman, and she was jealous of her rich dowry, and she didn't say sour things when she received relatives, or this Xu family's mother-in-law came forward to give everyone a big face, and Fang protected Sun. Who would have thought that she would be a lady in the second room.

The second-room dignitaries did not start from Shen Cang, and the third master also achieved a high-ranking position back then. The eldest daughter-in-law who married this will naturally not come from an ordinary family, no wonder the Xu family was young back then, but she was imposing. The female relatives of the ridiculous clan were frightened by Xu's momentum in person, and later said that it was the merchant woman who was rampant, reckless and rude, and did not know the etiquette

The Xu family immediately revealed their identities, and the young people of the Shen family stepped forward to greet them in order according to their years, and Guo introduced them on the side.

"This is my third son and brother."

"This is Brother Qin, the second master of the seventh room, and the second uncle is in line."

"This is Brother Bao of the eight-room old man, and the uncle is ranked fourth."

"This is Brother Jue, the eldest master of the sect, and his uncle is ranked fifth."

"This is Min Niang's son Brother Rui, and the sister-in-law just saw it."

Everyone bowed in turn, and Xu took the gift from the servant woman and handed it to everyone himself. Exactly the same Nanyang jade Ping'an brand. Although Nanyang jade is not as valuable as mutton fat jade, the color of a few pieces of Ping'an brand is pure, the emerald color is warm, and it looks like it is not an ordinary object.

Sister Fu'er's gift is different from her brothers, it is a gold-inlaid treasure bat pendant.

Seeing this, Guo Shi hesitated and said, "This gift is too heavy, her little family ......."

She originally thought that with the relationship of the Sun family, Shen Rui's gift should be the most important, but she didn't expect that it was Sister Fu who got the big head.

Xu smiled and said: "This thing is in line with Sister Fu's nickname, and it is also related to Sister Fu." After that, he took a brocade box from the servant woman's hand and pushed it to Guo's side: "I, as a sister-in-law, saw my brother-in-law when I was newly married, and I should have prepared a congratulatory gift. Because there were many people at that time, it was not cheap, so I thought about making up for it this time. I thought it would take two days to see my brother-in-law, but I didn't expect to see it today, so don't be too thin. ”

When Guo Shi heard this, he couldn't help blushing a little. When I saw the Xu family back then, it was true that she was a bride, but now that she has her grandchildren, she also receives the wedding gift, which is really indelible. She knew that the Xu family treated her closely, because it was for the sake of the late Sun family, and she also helped Shen Rui take care of the industry, otherwise she would not have made a special trip to prepare a gift, that is, the treasure pendant that Sister Fu had gotten, and she had prepared it in advance.

Guo sighed secretly in his heart, and he couldn't refuse, so he had to get up and thank him.

I can't complain that the Xu family said that the Sun family is stubborn, the Sun family has a rich dowry, and the scenery at the beginning of the days of the four rooms, but later because there are no children for many years, there is no one in the mother's family, and there is a lot of pain inside. Later, with Shen Rui, there was a mother-in-law who didn't like her, and life was not much better. If she had brought out the big Buddha of the second room lady as a backer, she would not have ended up like this.

After the Xu family saw the Shen family, he beckoned a few nephews to come forward to give Guo a salute.

When Guo heard the surnames of these three people, he remembered that the three masters in the second room only had one single seedling, and couldn't help but ask: "Sister-in-law, is this a relative of the province in the south?" Why didn't you bring Brother Luo back? ”

Although Shen Luo is the only son of the second master, because the eldest master of the second room has no heir, and he has no intention of choosing an heir from the clan, there has long been a rumor that Shen Luo will have a third room in the future. Songjiang each room lamented that the second room was rich and noble, but the blood withered, and the third room only guarded a man, but after the eleventh year of Hongzhi's township test, after the news of Shen Luozhongju was sent back, everyone had less cool words. What if there is only one man in the third room, he was lifted at the age of sixteen, and even if there is only one child and grandchild in such a good way, it is not disgusting

When Xu Shi heard this, he looked stunned, and said softly: "I haven't reported to Songjiang before...... Brother Luo, Brother Luo is gone in September......"

When Guo heard this, he was shocked.

The young men of the Shen family also looked at each other, obviously shocked by this news.

Although they have never seen Shen Luo, the clan brother, they have heard of the big name for a long time, the fourteen-year-old Xiucai, the sixteen-year-old lifter, is one of the most outstanding children of the Shen family's jade generation. And because he is the only grandson of the late grandfather in the second room, he will not be able to concurrently serve his uncle in the third room in the future, and his wives and concubines are in groups.

The atmosphere in the room was silent, Xu sighed, and said to Shen Rui: "Isn't Brother Rui worried about Xizhe's words?" Your brothers go out to eat tea and write, and you don't have to pestle here. ”

Everyone was surprised by Shen Luo's untimely death, but it was not sad to say that it was sad. The clan brothers, who had never met before, would obediently retreat to the outside world if they were heartbroken and hypocritical.

But Guo's family, because she is also a mother, and she has children and grandchildren outside, she is worried, and she can't hear such news, and her eyes are already red. has the heart to open his mouth to comfort one or two, but Shen Luo is not an ordinary man, he is the only heir in the second room. Since he died young, the second room was cut off from the bloodline, such a major event of the collapse of the sky and the earth, everything is empty, and there is only silent weeping.

There were already small servants outside who bought back pen, ink, paper, inkstones and other things, but Shen Rui also lost interest in letting Zhu Yunming write.

The second room is in Beijing, although few people return to their hometowns, but because the Shen family has children in the capital, the news of the two has not been cut off. Xu has an old relationship with Sun, so he has ignored himself in the past three years, is it because he knows his situation and does not need to worry, or is the relationship with Sun not so close?

If Shen Luo is still in the second room, and this backer comes out, Shen Rui is still willing to get close to one or two; But now that Shen Luo has died young, and the second room is broken, if he is close to the Xu family, he may be regarded as a suspicious person.

Thinking of this, Shen Rui's eyes widened suddenly.

Second house heir? How can the second room be broken?

Thinking about Brother Shen Yan, he looked at Shen Quan and Shen Jue again, and Shen Rui's eyes were dark.

In his previous life, he was the grandson of the second house, and the second house has been passed down to modern times. It is that the stars of Songjiang are scattered all over the place, and some of the houses have even broken off the inheritance early, and the second room is all there.

The one who inherits the bloodline of the second room must be the heir selected here in Songjiang, who is it who has become his ancestor?
