Volume 1: Who Have Seen Again, Chapter 320: The Darkness of the Golden Needle (5)

"Brother of the Six Clans is really good to talk to" Shen Jue has always been concerned about the "fake book", seeing that Shen Rui came back from Shen Li's house, he hurriedly came over to inquire, and heard that Shen Li had no intention of pursuing this matter, and he was a little angry.

Shen Rui glanced at him: "Then what do you think should be done with Shen Yan?" ”

"Even if you don't win fame, you always have to reprimand him before he is now a lifter, where can his livelihood be difficult? Regardless of his identity and being a gunman, he sold the article for money, this behavior is indeed contemptible," Shen Jue snorted lightly.

Shen Rui sighed: "You were born rich and noble, and you are not short of money when you are young, haven't you heard of the sentence 'bending your waist for five buckets of rice?'" No matter what the previous situation of Shen Yan's family was, they were already down-and-out when they were in Songjiang, and their family had no permanent property, so they depended on the Shen clan to live. Later, even if he won the lift, but he did not return to his hometown and lived abroad, the success of the lifter was halved. If he was rich, he would not still be a part-time gentleman at Nancheng Academy. ”

Shen Jue rolled his eyes: "Look at what the second brother said, it seems that the second brother is having a hard time......

Shen Rui smiled slightly, although he had never had a difficult life, he had seen many students from poor backgrounds in school in his previous life. They are more diligent in their studies, harder in their part-time jobs, and more sensitive in their dealings with others. Shen has the shadow of those students, but he is more calm and calm, and he does not feel sorry for himself and feel inferior and self-pitying because of the embarrassment of life. When Shen Rui was in Songjiang, the reason why he had a good impression of Shen was also because of his peace and calmness.

Shen Jue continued: "The poor have been poor, and the rich have been rich. Not all people in the world are poor, and it is better to be a down-to-earth person. Look at how their brothers are dressed, even if they are old clothes, they are also high-quality materials and fashionable styles, not much worse than us. Listening to Changshou, they are now renting two courtyards, and their families are also slaves and maids. Why is this all the trouble? Could it be that he worked hard to be a part-time master and a student in the academy, and he was a gunman with others, just for the sake of food, clothing, and pleasure? For someone else, at such an age, with such fame, isn't it time to concentrate on studying and go further, which is more important? ”

"Who wants to endure hardships if they can live a good life...... Besides, their ancestors were not abjectly poor, and they were rich in their early years, and they were not used to living a poor life normally......," Shen Rui said.

Shen Jue frowned and looked at Shen Rui suspiciously: "Why did the second brother say good things for Shen Yan?" This...... Wouldn't it be true that you were going to have a relationship with it? ”

Shen Rui shook his head and said, "I'm not speaking for him, I hope that Brother Jue can be more thoughtful in dealing with people." With different positions and different preferences, it is better to seek common ground while reserving differences in the affairs of others. After the hospital examination, you also have to have new classmates, among whom have different family backgrounds and different temperaments, can you still be picky? ”

Shen Jue laughed twice, and said uncertainly: "Second brother thinks I can really pass the hospital test?" ”

"You stay up from morning to night every day, isn't it just for the college exam? Why don't you have confidence anymore? Shen Rui said.

Speaking of which, compared with other candidates, Shen Jue has taken too much advantage. Who let him have a second brother of "Xueba", and also learned to "summarize, sort out, and summarize" this set of exam magic weapons that are common in later generations, but now they are amazing.

Shen Jue also thought of this, and immediately straightened his chest and said: "What the second brother said is that that guy Shen can pass the hospital exam, and I can't pass the ...... if it doesn't make sense."

Although Shen Rui cheered for Shen Jue on his face, he didn't know the bottom in his heart. He began to learn Shiwen at the age of twelve, and in order to prepare for the children's exam, he made thousands of Shiwen in two years, and read hundreds of Shiwen collections of various types.

In the final analysis, whether it is a current text or a strategy, it is all a format composition, and the jerky writing before is due to the fact that the new learner is not used to writing, and when practice makes perfect, the artistic conception will be much smoother. In addition, it is not difficult to figure out the style of writing that the examiner likes, or the magnificent atmosphere, or the righteousness of the country, or the literary style.

Although Shen Jue learned to do Shiwen for about the same time as him, he studied casually before, and the days of real hard work were only these few months. Even if Shen Rui taught his learning experience, Shen Jue's articles have spirituality, and the words and sentences are still a lot close to being coherent, and they are always a little stiff. This is also a matter of no choice, after all, it still takes a process of accumulation for this kind of format article to be caught.

It's just that now Shen Jue is bent on seeking fame and fame, and he forgets to sleep and eat, Shen Rui can't say these disappointing words......

The last time Shen Rui "invited" Shen Yan to have tea, it was ten days after meeting Shen Yan, and when Shen Yan sent someone to Shangshu Mansion to deliver a post, another ten days had passed.

This matter is related to the future of Shen Yan's brothers, even if they are in a hurry, they are their brothers, and it doesn't matter if Shen Rui is here sooner or later.

It's just that he thinks that Shen Yan is a person who knows how to see things, and if he drags on for so long, the purpose should not be to be like Shen Rui, it should be a difficult choice.

Before going to the appointment, Shen Rui also had a little curiosity in his heart, Shen Yan did he really make a choice?

It is still a teahouse in Chaoyangmen, and it is also the last window-facing private room.

It's just that there are no two little tails Shen and Shen Jue today, Shen didn't know about this date at all, and Shen Jue was immersed in preparing for the college exam, and he couldn't take care of anything.

When Shen Rui arrived, Shen Yan was already there.

His expression was less peaceful and more solemn, and he said, "Hengyun is here." ”

It's still the same name, but the heat in the tone is gone, and only solemnity remains.

"Mr. Shen." Shen Rui's heart moved, and there was also a positive color in his expression.

After sitting down, Shen Rui found that there was not only a tea set on the tea table, but also a yellow rosewood box that was only one foot long, seven or eight inches wide, and two or three inches high next to Shen Yan's right hand.

Shen Rui's expression did not move, but he was surprised in his heart.

Although he proposed to "exchange" last time, it was more of a possibility to test a possibility, wanting to settle the grievances between the Shen Yan brothers and the second room, and he didn't think that he would definitely succeed. After all, this is the Ming Dynasty, and the concept of clan is different from that of later generations, and in the eyes of the world, the family is the foundation. A tree cannot live without roots, and a person is unstable without roots.

Shen Yan's face showed a bit of determination, and said: "Hengyun's words, I went back and thought about it for a long time, I really shouldn't have begged Shangshu Mansion for protection like that...... Our brothers, as constant production and micro strength, do not know where to serve Shangshufu. In addition to this status that is not embarrassing or embarrassing, our brothers have no one to vouch for. If you talk about white teeth and talk nonsense at Hengyun, saying things like how our brothers will get ahead in the future, how to repay Shangshufu, then we will laugh to death...... In this world, there are so many scholars who are old and have no hope of fame, even if our brother successfully passed the township examination and the hospital examination before, no one can say what it will be like in the future...... After thinking about it, it seems that the only thing I can get out of it is this......" said and pushed the yellow rosewood box in his hand to Shen Rui.

Shen Rui had a guess in his heart, but he was puzzled on his face: "This is?" ”

Shen Yan let out a long sigh and said, "This is the identity certificate of the ancestor......"

Shen Rui opened the wooden box with a hesitant face, and saw that there were several yellowed pieces of cotton paper inside. Among them, there is a letter of resignation with the year, month and day, a midwife's handprint to draw the birth certificate, a naturalization document indicating the time of birth, and a document signed by several elders and clansmen of the Shen family.

Nothing else, seeing one of the familiar names, Shen Rui's heart was solid.

These things were also quite effective more than 60 years ago, otherwise the Erfang Shu Branch would not have jumped up and down to support the Shaw Brothers to fight lawsuits and fight for industry; But more than 60 years later, the witnesses on these documents have long been gone, and the effect of these things is minimal, and the only role is not to make the Shaw family qualified to "return to the sect", but to let his descendants be sure that their identity is that they are the children of the Shen family.

This was indeed what Shen Rui wanted in the first place.

In the final analysis, the identity of Shen Yan's brother is a landmine, and more and more people know about it, and it will not affect the status of the descendants when it is revealed. Even if he and Shen Jue are heirs, even if they are not the grandsons of the second house, they are already orthodox in terms of etiquette, which is something that the Shen Yan brothers cannot shake even if they return to the sect.

However, the incident back then was a scandal in the second room, and it was exposed to cause criticism, and even the deceased third master was rarely taken out to talk about it.

Back then, because the main story location took place in Songjiang, even if the third prince had a drastic move, it was only known to the clan, not to others. Rao is like this, and the clan is dissatisfied with the third master's drastic methods.

Scholars pursue the "way of a gentleman", and it is the norm for a gentleman to forgive others and be lenient, and it is not for those who "repay grievances with straightforwardness".

To say that the story of the great-grandfather is too far away from Shen Rui and Shangshu Mansion, the third grandfather is Shen Cang's father and Shen Rui's grandfather, it really has to attract criticism, not to mention that the deceased is uneasy, even the living people will be affected, and it is not a glamorous thing for the family to have a wife.

In the Shaw family's vein, the matter of seeking "return to the sect" has been troubled three times, and Shen Ruishi is not willing to happen a fourth time. Even with the attitude of Shen Cang and his wife, it was in vain for them to make trouble, but it was annoying for this old thing to be revealed again and again.

The method of "drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle" is to go to the "reliance" of their self-righteous descendants.

Until he returned to Shangshu Mansion and went to the main courtyard with the Huanghuali wooden box, Shen Rui still had a sense of unsteadiness.

Shen Yan's practical knowledge is indeed worry-free, but his courage is also jaw-dropping.

The thoughts of the two generations of my father and grandfather said that they would give up, so decisive and courageous, what do you want to do in the future? It is said that great achievers have great perseverance, and this looks like it.

When he arrived at the main courtyard, Xu was so shocked that he didn't wake up when he saw these things.

Shen Rui thought about the name he had just seen on the paperwork, and was puzzled: "Mother, the great-uncle of the fourth room participated in the matter of the merge and supported the Shao family to oppose his grandfather, so how could my grandfather agree to allow my mother to go to the fourth room...

The great-grandfather of the fourth room is also a wonderful person, as the owner of the house, he inherited the family property and hundreds of hectares of fertile land, but he is a bad gambler, and he lost his family to the net, if he didn't die early in a short life, he couldn't say that the next step was to sell his wife and children.

As the cousin of the great-grandfather of the second room and the cousin of the third grandfather, it is too shameless to testify that although the son of the Shaw family landed after the great return, he was pregnant in the Shen family, but considering his gambling nature, it is not uncommon to see that Qian Yankai is willing to testify for the son of the Shaw family.

What is strange is that the third master, who has clear grievances, did not hold grudges back then......
