Chapter 468: Great Change Will Come 4
Eight treasure dumplings, date dumplings, bacon dumplings, chicken dumplings, salty, sweet and sweet dumplings, triangular, square, all delicate and cute, the big one is just the size of a child's fist, and the small one is about the same as the thumb.
Brother Lu loves sweetness, holding half an eight-treasure zongzi, and eating it is fragrant.
Although the zongzi are delicious, the glutinous rice is not easy to restrain and the third wife only allows him to eat half of them.
The Dragon Boat Festival is a big festival, although Xiaozhong does not eat banquets, everyone is also eating in the upper room today.
The huge Shangshu Mansion, the east and west courtyards add up to a three-way five-entry mansion, more than 300 rooms, but the master who lives there is only the five people at the table, and there is no need to divide the table.
If Shen Luo hadn't died young, the Shen family would have grandchildren by now. If Shen Jue is still there, the family can be more lively, Xu's face is loving, but he always unconsciously remembers the past.
Xu looked at Shen Rui, the Shen family now looks at Shen Cang's funeral smoothly, where to go in the future, and how far they can go depends on Shen Rui. Compared with the death of the grandfather and the difficulties of the three Shen Cang brothers, now the situation is much better than that of the in-laws and relatives outside. Shen Rui is also a serious character, as long as there are no accidents, the second room will always be brilliant again.
At a wharf in the canal, sitting in the hatch of the ship, looking at the air dead wind lamp hanging outside, Shen Ling took a bite of the zongzi in her hand, and her brows couldn't help frowning. It's just that it's usually a small jujube glutinous rice dumpling, which is bought by an old woman who sells on the dock on the shore during the day, in order to have a scene, in the end, for the festival. However, the zongzi leaves are not well preserved, with a musty smell, and the glutinous rice is also old rice, which is not very strong. Compared with the zongzi that I have eaten at home, this one is really hard to swallow. This "home" refers not to the third room, but to the small family next to Shen Zhou.
Although Shen Zhou doesn't care much about general affairs, the personnel arrangements around him are all personally inquired about by the Xu family, and there are two mothers in the kitchen, one is good at managing the table, and the other is specialized in dim sum. In the past few years, Shen Ling's mouth has been raised.
"I can't wait to go back to Nanjing as soon as possible......" Shen Ling put down the zongzi and whispered in a low voice.
Thinking of his virtuous wife and Jiao'er, Shen Ling's expression eased, and her originally restless mood gradually calmed down.
has already made people inquire, Shen Zhu is on an official ship, the official ship has always been slow, chasing for a day without expecting to catch up, and it will be almost the same in three or two days.
Shen Ling didn't know that Shen Zhu got off the boat at the dock here because she was in a bad mood, and she was stranded on the dock today.
In the inn by the dock, Shen Zhu flicked the new clothes on his body and threw a piece of broken silver into Xiao Er's arms.
"Thank you, Shen Xianggong......" Xiao Er bowed and said.
At the door, there stood a young man in brocade clothes, with a fair complexion, thin eyebrows and thin eyes, and a folding fan in his hand.
"Brother Wu has been waiting for a long time......" Shen Zhu said with some apologies.
The young man glanced at Shen Zhu, covered his mouth with a fan and said: "Virtuous brother is polite, the ancients said that Zhilan Yushu, when I saw Shen Zhu, I knew that the ancients were honest and did not deceive me,......"
Shen Zhu's waist is more valuable, and he said humbly: "Brother Wu's praise is false, Brother Wu's demeanor and demeanor are also rare in Zhu's life, and it is an honor to ......."
Shen Zhu is sincere compliment, this young man is handsome, delicate in conversation, and well-dressed. Not to mention anything else, the material on the body, which seems to be ordinary flat silk, is actually a rarity that is no less than a tribute, even Shen Zhu has only seen a safe and sound card that has not worn a small palm-sized piece on his waist, delicate as fat, and worth a thousand gold. The three-bedroom of the Shen family is also a rich family, and the supply of Shen Zhu is the best, and when I see this young man, I can't help but feel ashamed, which shows that this young man is rich and powerful.
"Respect people first and respect clothes", most people in the world are like this, and Shen Zhu is not exempt from vulgarity.
Shen Zhu was not so much attracted by this young man's demeanor and demeanor, but rather impressed by this wealth and had the idea of clinging.
Shen Zhu's heart became earnest, and he looked down at his clothes and blocked his heart. He came out in anger yesterday, and even the little guy around him left behind, and he didn't have any luggage or anything, but he didn't look embarrassed because he had a few Zhuang tickets on his body. I had a hangover last night, and my Confucian clothes were so bad that I sent the inn junior to buy a set of ready-to-wear clothes, although they were also silk clothes, but they looked shabby.
The young man didn't seem to notice Shen Zhu's embarrassment, and said warmly: "It was the younger brother who pulled Brother Shen to eat and drink yesterday, so that the virtuous brother was delayed to board the boat this morning...... If the virtuous brother doesn't dislike the vulgarity of the younger brother, go with the younger brother......"
This young man's face was full of sincerity, Shen Zhu was intentionally clinging, and pretended to shirk two sentences, and then responded.
One time later, the two arrived at the dock and boarded a building boat.
Looking at the more gorgeous cabin, as well as the courage to dare to sail at night, Shen Zhu became more and more sure that this young man's identity was extraordinary, and he was unwilling to show his cowardice, so he had to take out the glory of his ancestors and the current clan power and talk about it, what is "after the bachelor", "Songjiang's first surname", "full of Confucian shirts", "brothers and sisters".
This young man was really full of admiration, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he said kindly: "The Songjiang Shen family, who has admired the name for a long time, is worthy of the head of the Jiangnan Shi clan......"
Shen Zhu and Yourong said: "It's just a family heirloom." ”
The young man's expression flashed, and he said: "Brother Xian is humble, Songjiang is already a rich land, and the Shen family has been inherited in Songjiang for several generations, this background is not comparable to ordinary gentry......
Shen Zhu smiled "haha": "It's just that there are more acres of land and more clansmen." ”
What is the second room of the book and the sacrificial wine, the bachelor of the ninth room, the champion of the fourth room, the prefect of the sect room, and the subordinate official of the East Palace of the fifth room...... Shen Zhudu nodded triumphantly
The young man's mouth was full of praise, and after listening to it, he couldn't help but ask, "I don't know which room is in your sect's mansion?" ”
Shen Zhu paused and said: "The younger brother is a third-room grandson, and the clan, the second room, and the fourth room are still five-service relatives, but the first grandfather died in the prime of life, and the father of the family is the eldest brother, in order to take care of the three younger brothers, he delayed his schooling, fortunately, he is good at general affairs, and he has also accumulated a family business, and his life is smooth, he can't be said to be one of the best among the clansmen, and no one dares to underestimate it." It's just that after a few uncles got older, they were bewitched by others and made a scandal of dividing the family and fighting for property. In the end, I was already embarrassed.
"The human heart is not ancient," the young man sighed.
Shen Zhu didn't feel that he was a fool, but really felt that Sanfang's current situation was because of several uncles. The eldest brother is like a father, although his father did not run the business himself, but if he did not have a scholar to support the door and sit in the family, how could several uncles expand their business without worries? The other heads of the house also have bad intentions, otherwise they would not have instigated several uncles to divide the family and property. In the final analysis, it's just a peep at the three-room industry, and the four-room Shen Yuan colluded with the He family, isn't it just to encroach on the three-room industry?
It's just that he remembered that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, so Shen Zhu didn't say anything about the intrigue in several rooms, and only attributed the fault to the He family, and even the culprit who "instigated" several uncles to split up became the second master of He.
As for the reason why the He family targeted the Shen family, it was naturally that the He family had been pressed by the Shen family because he was a servant of the court, so he bullied the Shen family after the death of Shangshu, the second room of the Shen family. However, the Shen family is the Shen family, even if there is no Shangshu, there are other people, so Shen Li came forward to "contain" He Dongsheng, which made the He family have to restrain his words.
With disgust for the He family, Shen Zhu said that the He family became a "nouveau riche".
Speaking of the second master He, Shen Zhu was also full of contempt: "In vain, he was born in a scholar's family and did business, but he thought he was righteous with a few coins, and now the eldest master of their family is willing to bow his head and turn big things into small things, otherwise the two families will have to calculate it carefully......"
It was getting late, and Shen Zhu didn't rest well for two days, and his face showed a dull face, so the young man said goodbye.
Going around to a cabin at the back, the young man looked respectful and whispered through the door: "Lord Wang......"
"Come in," came a lazy voice from inside.
The young man pushed the door open and entered the cabin. This cabin is as big as the cabin where Shen Zhu lives, the lights are bright, and next to the coffee table in the middle, there is a person sitting with a palm-sized purple clay pot, slowly pouring tea.
The man was twenty-five or six years old, and said casually: "It's just a sour ding who doesn't know the world, why did it come into your eyes?" ”
The young man's face was full of brilliance and said: "Lord Wang, this Shen Zhu is not just a showman, this person is not only interesting, but also a fortune boy."
Only then did the man raise his head, with a little interest: "Fortune boy? ”
"This is the descendant of the Songjiang Shen family, and it is said that Su Song's literary style is prosperous, and this Shen family is really amazing. There are more than 10 people from the Shi clan, and there are only four or five Beijing officials...... It's a pity that Shen Cang, if he hadn't died of illness, he would have been able to serve for another ten years in the Shang Shu position......" the young man said.
The man sneered, "You are greedy, this is what people want, and wealth is not wanted?" ”
The young man nodded and said, "The prince started to raise people a few years ago, and he needs silver everywhere, and the Shen family has a hundred years of history, even if it is far away, it is worth planning...... As for people? As long as you get on the prince's ship, there will be one more help in the king's capital......"
The man had no choice but to say, "Since you have taken a fancy to it, arrange it, but don't show your tracks outside......"
The young man said: "Don't worry, the people on the side of Taihu Lake have been raised for several years, and they are just a small fight, and this time I went to Songjiang to train soldiers...... If it goes well, there will be no need for the palace to bother with the funds over there in the future......"
Hearing the word "training", the man became solemn and frowned: "I thought you were going to make a small fight, this is going to make a big fuss?" Matsue Mansion is not a remote place, and there are guards stationed around it, so it's too risky......"
The young man said: "Don't worry, the prince is ...... by the sea."
The man still frowned and said, "In the name of a wolf?" The shape of the Japanese is different from that of the Han people, and it is inevitable that people will see one or two ......"
The young man's eyes turned and said, "Isn't there another He family who is-for-tat with the Shen family, and when the time comes, there will be some heads and tails pointing to the He family, and naturally someone will cover up this matter for us......"
The man's expression deepened, and he thought for a while and said, "Don't move lightly, or send someone to Songjiang to find out the bottom." Songjiang is rich, so he may not have chosen the Shen family...... If the He family is safe, it would be good to choose the He family......"
The catastrophe is coming.
