If Shen Zhu's body and demeanor are slightly similar to Shen Luo, then Shen Quan is similar in words and deeds.

Because of this, even if Shen Quan stepped forward to greet everyone, Shen Qin, Shen Zhu and others also visited one after another, the third master and the third wife were in a trance for deep thought, and the smile on the eldest master's face was also a little bitter.

Shen Zhu was beside him, and he had been paying attention carefully, and when he noticed the abnormality, he couldn't help but mention it in his heart, and he became more and more jealous of Shen Quan.

In the eyes of Shen Rui and Shen Jue, it was the elders of the second room who treated the nephews too coldly.

Except for Shen Jue and Shen Rui in the fourth room of the sect, because the elders and the second room have an old relationship, they seem to have a smiling face, and the children and elders of the other rooms are a little perfunctory.

Shen was completely silent, but he was hesitant in his heart, after all, it was a long way to come, and it was not good to resign immediately. However, the attitude of the elders in the second room in front of him is really uncomfortable.

After seeing the ceremony, the Xu family ordered Guan to take the sons of the Shen family into the guest house to freshen up in advance.

In the living room, there are only a few old men and wives left.

The third old man said: "Sister-in-law, why did you let Brother Rui go to the guest house?" My room has already been cleaned up. ”

The third lady looked at Xu and was puzzled.

Xu sighed secretly in his heart, when the third master said that he was married, with Xu's meaning, he wanted to tell him a wife who could be in charge. In the future, the third master doesn't have to worry about housework, and his wife will take care of him neatly. has an heir, has a rigid mother who teaches by word and deed, and does not need the third master to involve too much energy.

The eldest man felt sorry for his younger brother, afraid of saying that his high-spirited wife was urging his husband to be motivated, and did not care about his younger brother's body. In accordance with the wishes of the third master, he found the eldest daughter Tian who was quite famous in Confucianism.

Tian's qin, chess, calligraphy and painting are proficient in everything, and he is cultivated from three from four virtues when he is young, and because he is the eldest daughter, he will also be considerate and take care of people. After marrying into the Shen family for more than ten years, the Tian family and the third master are also in harmony, and they raise their eyebrows. It's just that the husband and wife, because they have always been protected by a long house, and they are both unsociable, they are a little naïve.

"The family is not happy now, and after the matter of Brother Rui, I am not in a hurry to bring it to the table for the time being. Brother Rui also arrived at home and would not let him go back. Xu said to the third master and the third wife: "Your second sister-in-law will never make a fuss in vain, and things will always settle down one day." When the time comes, this time in the province will make Rui Ge eye-catching, which makes her angry with Rui Ge in vain. ”

Although the third master and the third wife were a little reluctant, they had always been obedient, and when they saw their sister-in-law speak, they also nodded in response.

The eldest lord frowned beside him and said: "I know what the second family wants, a few days ago, the young daughter of the Cheng family of Shuntianfu died of illness, and she got the news and wanted to marry Brother Luo." ”

When Xu heard this, he couldn't help but be furious: "Does she really want to force Sister Ying to death?" ”

It is not uncommon to marry children who have not married and died young. It is really not appropriate to mention it at this time. This is said to be a yin marriage, and it is also necessary to have matchmakers, and the two families will also move around as in-laws in the future, but Shen Luo and the He family have already had a marriage contract and passed the marriage book, if they are married to Yin at this time, they must first withdraw from the He family's relatives.

As soon as the incident comes out, whether it is the little lady of the He family who guards the "widowhood" or is divorced by the dead, this matter will make the world chew again

The eldest man said: "I have already scolded the second child, and the second child didn't know about it before." For the sake of the last incident, he had already gone to He's house to ask for sin; If he makes trouble again, what face does he have to meet Master He? ”

The second master and Master He are both Hanlin officials, of the same grade, and they are in-laws, and they have been old friends for many years.

The third old man and the third wife heard this for the first time, and the third old man said: "If it takes three years and five years, the second sister-in-law's proposal is quite valid, and now it is mentioned that this is to make a feud with the He family?" ”

The third wife hesitated: "If you are really worthy of a yin marriage...... Next, do you have to pass the step-grandson and inherit the Luoge incense? ”

The eldest lord nodded and said: "The second family has this intention, it's not that the second child didn't agree." The second child is also a person who wants to look at the fifth, and he really wants to pass on the milk doll, who knows how to stand or not......"

In the southwest courtyard, the second wife held a handkerchief, covered her face, and cried to her husband.

The second old man had a bun wrapped around his head, half leaning on the bed, looking at his wife, with a little helplessness on his face.

The thirteen-year-old lady is cute like this; The twenty-three-year-old lady is so coquettish; Thirty-three-year-old little lady, such pear blossoms with rain is still charming; The half-old woman of forty-three years old is so young and girlish, but it makes people's scalp tingle.

The innocent and romantic, delicate and tender little cousin back then, is it really the person in front of him?

The husband and wife will be thirty years, and after seeing the shallowness and smallness of the wife, thinking of the dignified and beautiful figure, the second master is not unrepentant. It's just that the person is chosen by himself, and the one on his feet is grinded by himself, where does he have the qualification to regret it, the only thing he can do is to grit his teeth and insist, and be a "loving" couple with his cousin, otherwise his persistence back then would become a joke.

Fortunately, a son was added later, and the second master put all his thoughts on his godson.

Although he has not been forgiven by his father because of his unfilial piety, he continued the bloodline of the second room. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. In this way, he, an unfilial son, still has merit to the second room.

The second master only thinks that if he raises his son well, he can have the face to ask his father for his guilt when he goes underground, who would have thought that there would be such a change.

Today, when the Xu family returned, the second master did not pretend to be sick and did not greet the eldest sister-in-law, but he was really sick and weak.

On the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the second old man was depressed, went out of the city to the tomb, poured himself a drink in front of the grave of the old father and the eldest son, ate half a jar of wine, and saw the wind again. For fear that his family would be worried, he didn't dare to come back, and lay in the outer courtyard for three days before coming back, still lacking in spirit.

Knowing that the Xu family arrived home in the afternoon, the second master sent his wife over, who would have thought that she would make such a fuss again.

Seeing that his wife was dressed in a vegetarian body, the second old man frowned, his eyes showed a little pain, and then he said: "Don't cry about the marriage, even if you grind the eldest brother and sister-in-law to respond, I won't respond."

His voice was not loud, but his tone was resolute.

The second wife couldn't help but be stunned, holding a handkerchief, looking a little sluggish.

She has a delicate countenance, and has always cherished color the most, and if she is over forty years old, she has not looked like a woman in her thirties; But the sallow face under the eyes, and the fine crow's feet at the corners of the eyes, it is difficult to hide the old state.

The second master couldn't help but soften in his heart, and said: "If you want to marry Brother Luo, don't be in such a hurry." After a few years, I will find the right person."

The second wife cried again: "Brother Ke Luo is underground, how lonely and lonely is no one to accompany him?" The slut of the He family refused to be martyred by her husband, and did not allow our brother Luo to find another wife? ”

The second master looked straight at the second wife and said coldly: "If you are really reluctant to Brother Luo, why don't you and my husband and wife accompany him?" ”

The second wife was choked, looked at the second master like a ghost, and said: "In this world, there are only husbands and wives who are martyred, where are there children who die and parents are martyred?" ”

The second old man lowered his eyelids and said: "The closest person in this world is the relationship between father and son, mother and son, if Brother Luo really wants someone to accompany him, he must hope that the most important thing is also his parents." ”

The second wife was a little stunned, and after a long while, Fang Yin sobbed and said: "Don't scare me, my lord, Brother Luo is the most filial, and I must hope that the master and I will be safe...... How can we let Brother Luo go uneasy......"

The second master didn't speak again, but there was more mockery in his eyes.

This is his good wife, who can find a reason for herself to be justified no matter what she does.

It is true that she loves her son, but she also loves herself. It seems that she doesn't need to worry about her wife being depressed because of the loss of her son, she will always find something for herself to do.

Offended the eldest brother and sister-in-law today, tomorrow?

The second old man leaned on the head of the bed, and felt excited.

The worst outcome is nothing more than this, how bad can it be......

The southeast of the Shen house, the guest house.

This guest house is next to the front yard and is a triple courtyard.

Three north rooms, one with two dark structures, flanked by bedrooms, and a small hall in the middle. The three rooms in the east chamber are small study rooms, and the two rooms in the west chamber are the lower rooms of servants and maids.

Compared with the Jiangnan buildings with white walls and gray tiles, the buildings in the capital are more spacious, the openings are deeper, and the courtyards are also spacious.

There is a pomegranate tree in the southeast of the yard, and there is a pair of large empty fish tanks under the tree.

In the courtyard, Changshou, Liu Cheng and others sent Shen Rui and Shen Jue's luggage over with the servants in the second room.

Shen Rui is still in the same place with Shen Jue, and the two are placed in this courtyard, in addition to Dong Xi and Liu Ya to follow up and serve, Xu also arranged two maids and two mothers-in-law to take care of them.

Seeing that Dong Xi was going to take someone to dismantle the ceremony, Shen Rui hadn't spoken yet, Shen Jue had already instructed on behalf of the master: "Just pick out the covers and a few sets of clothes to come out, and the others don't have to wait for the time being, and then slowly clean up later." ”

When Dong Xi heard this, he looked at Shen Rui.

Shen Rui nodded: "Come as Brother Jue orders first." ”

Because Shen Jue didn't take the maid out, Shen Rui also asked Dongxi to help with the luggage and belongings on his side.

Dong Xi and Liu Ya took people to clean up the two bedrooms in the north room, and Shen Rui pulled Shen Jue down to the east wing study: "Brother Jue wants to go?" ”

Shen Jue nodded and said, "Why don't you leave?" Let's just make up the numbers, who is rare to be a cheap son with someone? Brother Rui just go with me, can the eldest brother and sister-in-law still be wronged, can't we? When the time comes, if you are really not used to living, you will go to the house of the brother of the six clans, it is better than being disgusted here."

Shen Rui hesitated: "But the matter of my ancestor's sacrifice ......"

The day after tomorrow is Chinese New Year's Eve, and tomorrow there will be a visit to the clan, and there is no reason to sacrifice under the New Year.

It's not easy to mention this in the first month, and it must be out of the first month at the earliest, so that the sacrificial ceremony can be performed.

Shen Jue frowned and said, "It's really not good, I'll come back after the first month." We are invited by Aunt Cang to be guests, and we are not here to be angry You look at the appearance of the second wife, as if she wants to eat people, if she really starts to go crazy and hurt people, wouldn't everyone be wronged? Even if it doesn't hurt people, that appearance is annoying, and we are not poor relatives who come to fight the autumn wind, why are we looked down upon? ”

Shen Rui shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that the eldest aunt won't respond."

Xu is a person with ideas, and it is strange that he can follow the wishes of several of their teenagers.

Even if Shen Jue has an eldest brother in Beijing, but since the young people were brought into Beijing by the Xu family, the Xu family will naturally take care of them, and they don't want everyone to have any accidents.

Shen Jue obviously thought of this, scratched his head, thought for a while, and said: "Since it's not good to say goodbye directly, then let's not say it directly, when the time comes, we will only ask the eldest brother to take us over to live and go out first." If you pick us up here, we'll go to the Six Clans' brothers' house again, anyway, they are all relatives, and they didn't go out to live......"

As the two were talking, they heard a voice outside the door: "Okay, I'm still worried about the two of you, you two are planning to slip away, but you don't want to take your brother to ...... together."
