For the elderly, six years have passed in a blink of an eye; For a teenager, six years is a long time, which makes the memory a little blurred.

With the sacrifice of the young people of the Shen family, the older ones may still remember the benevolence and kindness of the Sun family; If you are a little younger, you don't really remember this "four-room aunt" and "four-room uncle".

The impression left is that this clan elder is not fortunate or unlucky, but fortunately, as the daughter of a businessman, she married into a big family like the Shen family, and sat firmly in the position of the main mother for 30 years; Unfortunately, it is here, there is no mother's family as a backer, and people only give birth to a son in middle age, but the person is gone, and the biological son inherits the incense.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Shen Rui and no longer felt that he was the "tall" and unapproachable heir of Shangshufu, and muttered in their hearts that "the four rooms were pitiful in the past", but they became more and more close.

In contrast, everyone looked at Shen Jin, the eldest son of the fourth nominal son of the "dove occupying the magpie's nest", and they were questioning and picky.

For Shen Jin, regardless of the reaction of others, since preparing for this small sacrifice, he has mourned his mother-in-law wholeheartedly.

The more he saw the hot and cold world outside, the more Shen Jin was grateful to the Sun family for their tolerance and kindness.

He knelt next to Shen Rui, knelt respectfully in front of Sun's tombstone.

Shen Rui glanced at Shen Jin and wondered in his heart. In the previous life, my sister inferred that the Sun family had no children or had children who died early, so the dowry would not be left to the children and grandchildren, but now Shen Jin is recorded in the name of the Sun family, how did this gift come about? Did you change history, or did you change the four rooms?

Now that I have come to the Ming Dynasty, will the genealogy of five hundred years later still be recorded in the previous life?

Shen Rui couldn't be sure in his heart.

Shen Jin saw that Shen Rui was stunned, but when he missed Sun's heart, he hurriedly helped his arm, and said in a low voice: "Second brother, don't be sad, now that you have succeeded in your studies, your family affairs have been decided, and your mother has knowledge, and she is only grateful." ”

Shen Rui glanced at Shen Jin, and when he saw his weak scholar who was powerless, he was a little worried, and said: "Even if Brother Jin is dedicated to his career, he must cherish his body in order to last for a long time. ”

Shen Jin nodded vigorously and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I will definitely live up to the expectations of the second brother."

He swore like this, Shen Rui couldn't help but regret that he had said too much.

In the Ming Dynasty, where "everything is of the highest quality, only reading is high", it is common for people to lose their bodies for fame, that is, among the heads of the Shen family, there are not one or two who die young because of reading.

The brothers of various clans, the reason why they don't want to see Shen Jin is that Shen Jin is too good at reading, and the fourteen-year-old Xiucai is also a "little three-yuan" student, and he belongs to the "children of other people's families" in the mouths of his parents; The second is to look down on his background, more or less for the sake of not offending Shen Rui.

In their opinion, Shen Rui was robbed of the position of the eldest son, even if he succeeded to Shangshufu later, he could not erase the former enmity, and he must regard Shen Jin as an enemy.

I don't want Shen Rui to treat Shen Jin closer than others, but it seems that he doesn't care about his previous suspicions, and he is quite concerned about Shen Jin.

In this way, even if it is on Shen Rui's face, no one will give Shen Jin a look without interest.

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, don't say that Shen Jin is now named under the name of the Sun family, and he is the eldest son of the fourth family; is that Shen Jin is still the eldest son of the fourth room, and his status is not much lower than others.

Even if the clan brothers bite the "distinction between the concubines" and want to belittle Shen Jin, they have to see if they have that ability

Even if Shen Jin is a concubine, her biological mother was born in a scholarly family, and her biological uncle is now an official, and she has become a showman, and she is a leader among her peers.

Now that the children in the clan studies have also grown up, everyone knows that people can't live as they want, otherwise they wouldn't all come over to get close to Shen Rui and Shen Jue brothers.

Now that Shen Rui is willing to get close to Shen Jin, others are also obedient, and they call "Brother Jin" one by one

Shen Jin is not an ignorant character, he was not close to his brothers before, firstly, because he was concentrating on his studies and had no intention of using it in interpersonal relationships; The second is that he is a young man, somewhat arrogant in his bones, aware of his family's pickiness about his identity, and does not like to stick to the cold faces of others.

Now that Shen Rui is the bridge, the brothers in the clan took the initiative to show goodwill, and Shen Jin also took it.

Shen Quan thought about his old feelings, and he had long seen Shen Jin's current situation in his eyes, and he couldn't bear it in his heart. Seeing that Shen Rui seemed to have the intention to promote the relationship between Shen Jin and his clan brothers, Shen Quan was happy to see it happen, and he also played a side drum on the side.

All of a sudden, everyone's atmosphere was warm.

Shen Bao has a generous temperament, and has a bit of inner show, when it comes to calligraphy and painting, he can also talk to Shen Jin together, and said: "A few days ago, I saw a brother's painting in a certain world. ”

Shen Jin smiled lightly: "It's just what I did when I was playing with my classmates in the early years, which made Brother Bao laugh." ”

Only Shen Qin is jealous and hateful, because he has a deep prejudice against Shen Jin in his heart, he is always far away, and only talks to Shen Jue.

There is also Shen Zhu, although he also came with the brothers of the clan today, but he was not as publicized as he was back then, mixed in the crowd, and was speechless. The clansmen who flattered him in the early years are now lukewarm.

Who made the separation of the three rooms the year before last unfair, so that the other heads of the house were mostly respectful of the three-room master. can be unkind to siblings who depend on each other, let alone ordinary people? There is also the fact that Shen Zhu is in the capital, which has gradually spread, making everyone jealous.

In addition, although Shen Zhu is a talent, he is not good in the annual exam, and his future is uncertain, so everyone can't help but feel a little contempt in their words and deeds.

Seeing that Shen Zhu was in an embarrassing situation, Shen Quan hesitated for a moment, but did not step forward.

The third room is now under the idea of the second room, and it is better for him to stay away. Otherwise, with the cheekiness of the old lady in the third room, he will not be able to directly cling to the second room, and he may have to hold on to the close relationship between the fifth room and Brother Rui, and it will be difficult to turn back for the fifth room.

Although Wufang is not afraid of him anything, where is the old man's generation, and the dispute is uncomfortable

When the group returned to the city, it was time for lunch.

Guo had already ordered the kitchen to prepare a vegetarian table, and Shen Jue didn't need to shy away from it, and all the brothers of the clan left food in the fifth room.

After lunch, everyone dispersed.

Shen Jin did not go back, but was left by Shen Rui to speak.

Shen Rui thought about the events of his previous life, and he was a little shocked that he was not sure whether history would follow the trajectory of his previous life or whether there would be changes.

Did Shen Jin become an official and ask for a gift from his mother-in-law, or did he die childless and early, which made the Sun family cut off the incense?

For others, no matter what, it is incomparable, but for Shen Rui, it is extremely important.

"I shouldn't be talking too much, it's just that the third brother and Shen Zhu are the same age as Brother Jin, and they are going to get married this year, shouldn't Brother Jin also think about starting a family here? Starting a family, starting a family, having a sister-in-law at home, arranging trivial matters, and Brother Jin can not be distracted by general affairs. Shen Rui took Shen Jin to the guest house, sent others down, and the two brothers talked.

When Shen Jin heard this, his face couldn't help but turn pale, and he said with a wry smile: "The old man and the new wife are not in Songjiang, and no one is in charge of this matter......

Shen Rui frowned and said, "Is Brother Jin really relieved to hand over the marriage matter to the master and the Shao family for arrangement?" ”

Because of Shen Juren's strange character, Shen Ruishi couldn't believe that he would find a good family for Shen Jin. That is a good thing for Sifang, but for Shen Juren, who now values money above everything, he may not be willing

Next year will be the year of the township test, and when Shen Rui is on the list, no matter how flawed his birth and reputation are, the matchmaker will also break through the threshold. If it really has to be delayed until that time, it is impossible to say that Shen Juren will sell at a price, and directly find a merchant for Shen Jin to be his father-in-law, which can not only earn a large dowry, but also press the other party's identity, so that the other party cannot take over the housework.

Shen Jin's expression became more and more bitter, and he sighed faintly and said: "The marriage event is the words of the matchmaker at the behest of my parents, where is there room for me to speak?" ”

Shen Rui hesitated for a moment and said, "Can't you let Zheng Zhizhou help find a candidate?" If he opens his mouth to protect the media, I'm afraid the master won't be able to say anything......"

If Shen Juren hadn't come out and had his back on the Shen family, he might not have put a Zhizhou in his eyes; But Shen Juren is now out of office, and he knows the severity of the situation, and he may not dare to offend Uncle Zheng.

It is impossible for Shen Rui to come forward and confront Shen Juren for Shen Jin, there must always be someone to take care of Shen Jin, and he is really delayed by Shen Juren's selfishness.

Shen Jin raised his head, his face full of surprise: "I...... I...... Is it okay to get along with the Zheng family? ”

After all, Shen Jin's nominal family is already the Sun family, not the Zheng family. Even if there is no one in the Sun family now, Shen Jin needs to avoid it, otherwise in the eyes of others, he will be "ungrateful".

Shen Rui said: "The most continuous thing in this world is blood kinship, the elders of the second room can't help but be close to the clan, how can Brother Jin isolate his flesh and blood for the sake of false fame?" ”

Even if Shen Jin doesn't take the initiative to contact Uncle Zheng, what can he do? He was raised by Ji Lu to take over the Zheng family, and when the time comes, can he still let the Zheng family and his brother break off contact?

Shen Jin's face turned red, and he said with a few moments: "I'm not for fame...... I'm afraid that I'm going to be insatiable, and I've become a villain who doesn't want to give up anything......"

Shen Rui frowned and said, "Brother Jin thinks that Mrs. will remember you back then, just to make you make a choice?" Don't talk about the deep love of flesh and blood, just talk about cause and effect, even if Aunt Zheng's family was poor and had no dowry in the past, she could be the identity and appearance of the daughter of Xiucai, and it was not difficult to marry Lu to be the grandmother, the reason why she was committed to the side room was to support the widow and young brother, which was not a great favor for Zheng Zhizhou? Now that Zheng Zhizhou is already an official, mentioning his nephew is just a gesture, and it can be regarded as a return for the good results of the year, so why not? ”

In fact, although Shen Rui didn't see Zheng Zhizhou, his impression was not good.

If Zheng Zhizhou had a heart, would he ignore Shen Jin, the only nephew?

Shen Jin sneered: "After my aunt went to Shanxi the year before last, she sent a steward over there and wanted to pick me up north...... It's just that at that time, I was bent on preparing for the township test, and I didn't want to make any extraneous branches, so I declined the kindness there...... Later, I learned that I had not yet decided on a marriage, and the uncle of the Zheng family also wrote to me to marry my cousin, but I was afraid that the door would be inappropriate, the household was wrong, and I was afraid that the Zheng family would anger the lord and cause another incident, so I politely refused the matter......"

Shen Rui looked at Shen Jin, half speechless.

Isn't it true that you read books and become a nerd? The biological uncle can't take care of it, and the partial birth is counting on the biological father who is not very good, isn't it stupid?

Although Shen Jin said this with a sneering face, his eyes were clear and there was no remorse.

Shen Rui has a little sincere admiration, although Shen Jin's behavior is a bit "pedantic", but it is quite principled, he is not a mercenary person, he can be called a "gentleman......
