Volume 1 - Who Have Seen Again Chapter 193 - Where the Profit Lies (1)
On the next road, Shen Rui and Shen Jue were very silent, which was too surprising to guess. If this is the case, Shen Rui's identity is inevitably embarrassing.
Shen Jue looked at Shen Rui and stopped talking, squeaked and whined for a while, but couldn't help but ask, "Brother Rui, what if there is really such a thing?" ”
What to do?
Although when Shen Rui woke up, the Sun family had passed away, and there was no trace of intersection, and he couldn't talk about the relationship between mother and son, but he couldn't deny that he had lived peacefully in the Ming Dynasty in the past three years, and he was a son-in-law who came to stretch out his hands and eat to open his mouth.
is now the heir who fell from the sky, and it is also because of the relationship between the Sun family and the second room.
But for the sake of the so-called "dignity", it is also a joke to give up the Yanai of Shangshu Mansion and continue to talk to Shen Juren and Zhang Laoan.
If you ignore it and pretend to be deaf and dumb, you will be a son of man in vain.
Suddenly, Shen Rui was really in a dilemma.
According to his thoughts, it doesn't matter if his second wife is happy or not, she is an aunt and not an old lady. The kinship of later generations is thin, and the so-called family members are just direct blood relatives from the upper and lower levels, and uncles are all relatives; But now it is the Ming Dynasty, and living with the ancestral family is considered a family, not to mention that the eldest master and the second master are siblings.
Xu immediately avoided that the second wife knew about the relationship between Shen Rui and Mrs. Sun, that is, he knew that the second wife would definitely not be able to accept this relationship.
Then, as long as Shen Rui enters the second room, this relationship will always be revealed.
That is, they hold the idea of "raw rice cooked and matured"?
Shen Rui shuddered for a moment, glanced at Shen Jue and said, "I'm also confused...... I always think this sounds a little ridiculous, but it's not impossible. All of a sudden, I don't know what to do?? ”
Shen Jue twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, "You can't ask the elders?" This is unfounded, and it involves Aunt Yuan, which is not something we should ponder. If this is the case, Uncle Cang and Aunt Cang will never keep hiding it from you, and they will have to make it clear to you one day......"
Shen Rui thought about it, but still felt that it was inappropriate, shook his head and said: "You can't be confused, let's see if you can ask the eldest uncle in two days......
Mrs. Sun's blessed land is in Changping, next to the blessed land of the second room of the Shen family, and there is a sacrificial village with dozens of hectares of land
Dozens of hectares of Zhuangzi in the south of the Yangtze River is nothing, but in the land of Gyeonggi, powerful people gather, so the whole Zhuangzi is considered a big village. That is, because it is registered as a sacrificial field, and there are the blessed lands of Shen and Sun, no one occupies it. Otherwise, after the death of the third master, with the age and grade of the eldest master and the second master at that time, they may not be able to keep this Zhuangzi.
Now the head of the village is Zhou's mother's second son, Tuesday, in his early thirties, with a garlic nose, and his face is honest. Although this sacrificial village is not a place with a lot of oil and water, and the family cemetery is located, there must be a thoughtful and careful place to become the head of the village here this Tuesday.
Yesterday, the Xu family had already sent someone over to spread the word, and the courtyard where the couple would settle down for Shen Rui and others on Tuesday had already been cleaned up.
Unlike the increasingly hot and dry city in Beijing, March in the suburbs of Beijing is quite cool.
The others were okay, Shen Qin got out of the carriage, and he was overjoyed: "I finally saw the green ...... in my eyes"
They went to Beijing in March, and in addition to being in Shen's house, they also went out and went to Lu a few times. Compared with Songjiang, there are many houses and people in the capital, but the dry climate in winter also makes them unable to adapt to the young people who were born in Jiangnan and grew up in Jiangnan.
Now that winter has passed and spring has come to an end, the capital seems to have begun to bring water vapor, and it no longer makes people feel so dry.
Because this Zhuangzi is a resting place during the sacrificial sweep, it is not big, and there are only three entrances. At the foot of the mountain, except for the two two-entry courtyards where the Zhuangtou steward and others lived, the rest were the houses of the villagers' tenants.
Shen Rui and the others naturally went to live in the main house and settled in the front yard.
I went out of town in the morning and sat in the carriage for an hour and a half, and it would be noon at this time.
After Shen Rui and the others finished freshening up, lunch was ready.
At this time, in addition to the river fresh, there are also all kinds of wild vegetables in the mountains, many of which have never been seen or rare in the south, but they have eaten a few round bellies of the clan brothers.
Although he said that tomorrow was the day of Mrs. Sun's birth, Shen Rui still called Tuesday and proposed to go to Mrs. Sun's tomb to have a look.
Although Tuesday was the first time I saw Shen Rui, I knew that this was the heir of the eldest lord's house, and the future family members of Shangshu Mansion dared to be the slightest bit lazy, so they naturally responded in a hurry.
Shen Jue and Shen Qin had nothing to do, so they also followed Zhang Luo.
Because he knew that the tomb of the second master was adjacent to the grandson, Shen Rui asked someone to divide the prepared sacrifices into a basket, so that people could carry them and go up the mountain together.
The cemetery of Sun and Shen is at the southern foot of the mountain, only a few zhang away, there is only one grave on one side, and there are six or seven graves scattered on the other.
The two cemeteries were very well groomed, and there was not a single weed on the graves.
Even Shen Qin, who loves to talk the most, also closed his mouth at the moment.
Shen Rui first went to the tomb of Mrs. Sun and stood up, and saw that the tombstone read "The Tomb of the Deceased Brother Sun Gong Mengsheng", and the inscription below was "Brother Shen Jun Weeps".
Compared to ordinary tombstones, this place is simpler, and there is no year of birth and death.
Shen Rui had to open his shirt and kowtow three times in front of the tomb.
Looking at the Shen family cemetery again, the top is the grave of the old lady in the second room and the old lady of the original match, and the husband and wife were not buried together. After the old lady in the second room left that year, he never came back, needless to say that it was a well-dressed mound.
Below, on the left side is the tomb of the eldest master and the second grandfather of the second room, one of the two brothers was sixteen years old and the other was fourteen years old when the accident occurred.
On the right is the tomb of the three-room old lady and the three-room old lady, and the husband and wife are also their own graves. This is strange, the old lady in the second room and the old lady in the second room were not buried together and still have a relationship, after all, the old lady kept his hand on the Shaw family and repeated after hearing that the Shaw family had a son, which had hurt the father-son relationship between the husband and wife; The three masters and the three old ladies were not buried together, so I don't know what the reason is.
The third grandfather's grave was the first time, and there was a small grave, in which the eldest daughter of the third grandfather was buried, who died of illness at the age of eight, which was considered a martyrdom; I heard that the other second daughter, who was between the second and third masters, died before she was eight years old, and she didn't even die, so she didn't treat the tomb.
A few more empty places, there is another grave, needless to say that it is the tomb of Shen Luo.
Although Shen Luo died at the age of 18 and was less than 19 years old, due to folk customs, the man had already married and the woman had promised to marry, so the grave regulations were different from those of the two uncles and grandfathers.
Standing in the second-room cemetery, Shen Rui couldn't help but be frightened.
The children and grandchildren are multiplied, and there are more than one generation after another, but here in the second room, it is just the opposite.
If there is no Matsue family, there is nowhere to find an heir in the second room, but there is really no successor.
Shen Qin, Shen Bao and others, looking at these graves one by one, remembered the boiling secrets of the second room in the past, and their hearts became heavy.
Shen Bao didn't care, thinking of his own family, if it wasn't for his father to give birth, there would be a bunch of concubines, and the situation of the eight-room grandson branch would not be much better than the second-room. Regardless of whether my father can successfully pass the Jinshi examination, only the bloodline reproduces here, which is considered to be sorry for the ancestors and ancestors.
Shen Qin had a fever on his face, and he was a little ashamed inexplicably.
If the eldest and second masters had no accidents back then, they had already married and had children, and their children and grandchildren were full, how could the bloodline of the second room be so thin?
In the final analysis, it was the Shaw Brothers who were too bad back then, harming the eldest master, the second grandfather, and the third grandfather.
Because of the former status of mother and son, it is not easy for the third master to take revenge except for exposing the harm of the Shaw Family.
It's ridiculous that after listening to this past, I still feel that the past is over, and I need to take care of the people in front of me, and I also feel that Shen Yan and the Shen brothers are also the grandsons of the second house, and it is okay to return to the Shen family. It is not too much for them to ask their father's and ancestors' ashes to be put into the ancestral grave of the Shen family, after all, the dead are the greatest.
Just looked at the two-room cemetery in front of me, the large and small graves of the martyrs, who could say that the dead were great?
If one day Shen Yan and the Shen brothers' fathers and ancestors really want to enter the ancestral grave of the Shen family, then the third master will crawl out of the grave angrily?
The atmosphere became a little heavy, it was not a serious sacrifice day, Shen Rui and the others simply bowed in front of the tomb of the third master, and then went down the mountain.
On the way down the mountain, Shen Qin couldn't help but speak: "If the eldest master and the second master are alive, the second room person Ding must be no less than the sect room......"
There are four brothers and nephews of the patriarch of the clan, more than a dozen children and nephews, and there are dozens of cousins and cousins in Shen Jue's generation.
Here in the second room, if the Shaw family didn't harm the two stepsons back then, the old lady in the second room had three sons in front of him, plus Shen Yan and Shen Zhizu, a total of four small rooms, which have multiplied to this day.
If there is no one in the second room, even if Shen Luo has an accident, there will be no heirs from other rooms.
"Harming others and harming oneself can be said to be like this," Shen Jue snorted coldly.
Although many people in the clan sympathized with Shen Yan and Shen, and felt that the second room should not be bothered with them, and they should be allowed to return to the sect, Shen Jue did not see it that way. Everything has cause and effect, just like Sun's accumulation of virtue and good deeds, good fortune should be repaid to Shen Rui; Shen Yan and Shen brothers have no clan to return, such as rootless duckweed, it is also the result of the evil deeds of the ancestors.
Could it be that the Shaw Brothers harmed two lives in vain? Just two tears before death can erase all the previous sins?
Thinking of this, thinking that Shen Rui had praised Shen Yan in private, Shen Jue looked at him and said, "Brother Rui, if Shen Yan wants to return to the sect after his career in the future, will you help him speak?" ”
Shen Rui shook his head and said: "I have no qualifications and no position to help him speak, but the eldest uncle, I will not nod this in my lifetime."
"Marrying a wife and marrying a virtuous woman is this truth, a woman is not virtuous, and it has harmed several generations," Shen Jue said indignantly
Shen Qin and Shen Bao all echoed, and Shen Rui thought of Zhang Lao'an in the second room.
Even if Shen Jin is better at reading than his peers, with such a grandmother and Shen Juren, the father of hypocrisy and immorality, it is really difficult to hold up the fourth room.
The appearance of Xu's family and the second room is also a relief for himself. But if you should ask, you still have to ask......
Songjiang, Shen Juren's house.
Shen Juren accompanied He Wuniang to "go back to the door", and only Zhang Laoan and Shen Jin were at home.
Shen Jin came over and mentioned to Zhang Lao'an that he wanted to leave for Nanjing at the end of the month.
Zhang Lao'an was surprised: "The township test is in August, and it's not too late to set off in June, isn't it too early to go at this time?" ”
Shen Jin shook his head and said, "It's not early, I tried it a few days ago, and some of my classmates have already set off...... There are many academies in Nanjing, and there are many famous Confucians, so grandchildren can just go to find teachers and seek advice......"
Zhang Lao'an is still not at ease: "It will take more than half a year to ......go this time," Speaking of this, he frowned and said: "But the He family or the He family's companion has neglected you?" Do you want to go to Nanjing early? ”
Shen Jin hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No...... The grandson had long wanted to talk to his grandmother, but a few days ago the family was busy with happy events, so the grandson postponed it until today......
