Chapter 454: Admitting Mistakes (Third Update, Qingxin Alliance Leader)
"This marriage, the Liu family regretted the marriage first, my Shen family did not tell the government is already benevolent, and now the county lord is here, please give a comment!"
Li respectfully saluted the county magistrate, meaning to let the county magistrate say a word and cancel the marriage.
Our Shen family is different now, even the county order is coming to the door in person, how can it be that you, a little Liu family, want to play a prestige? I just don't want your daughter, let your daughter be an abandoned woman without passing the door, bear the infamy, and never get married for the rest of her life!
Let you blind guys bully our Shen family again, is it really my Shen family that is still as easy to bully as before? Just a person who dares to show off his might?
The county magistrate was stunned, and came to congratulate the new champion, but he actually encountered the matter of the complaint, but he didn't know if it was in line with the rules in this private courtyard? looked at Hu Dianshi next to him at the moment.
In such a remote and small county, it is the power of the county and the chief bookkeeper to do it, and observing words and colors is the most basic skill.
Hu Dianshi hurried up to the front to teach the opportunity, now the Shen family is not as good as before, even if he sells personal favors, he can't let the county order refuse, and in the current situation, it is most appropriate to act cheaply, and the people seem to want to see a drama of "Xie Yuan's family was withdrawn from marriage by the market, and the champion refused to marry in the blink of an eye".
Zhixian listened to Hu Dianshi's words, and nodded with a smile: "Since the Liu family regrets the marriage first, the fault lies in the Liu family." The official sentenced this marriage to be abandoned, and the Liu family not only returned the Shen family's bride price, but also doubled the compensation! ”
The surrounding onlookers all shouted: "The county lord is wise." ”
It has been a few months since the county order arrived in Ninghua County, and he has never been supported by so many people, and he himself feels that his face is bright, which not only saves the face of the Shen family, but also wins the support of the people, why not? He glanced at Hu Dianshi with approving, thinking that he would go back and give him a little benefit, but in a blink of an eye, this thought flew out of the clouds.
"The magistrate returns to his home......"
With the announcement of the head of the team, the Shen family and the guests of the banquet sent the county master and Hu Dianshi out of the door.
The county order turned around in three steps, and when he arrived at the entrance of the alley, he greeted the Li family again, and then got into the sedan chair and left.
Opposite to the official sedan chair, there is a sedan chair parked not far away, and the sedan chair driver is standing next to the sedan chair, looking at the entrance of the alley. Behind the sedan chair, there is a large group of porters, and the red, green, and green dowry is several zhang. But because he didn't get the permission of the Shen family, whether it was a sedan chair man or a bearer, he didn't dare to send the sedan chair and dowry to the Shen family.
"Mother...... Why don't we bring people in? Qian looked at the sedan chair over there, and there were so many dowries, thinking of his son's marriage, he couldn't help but say a word to Li.
Li sneered: "Is the words of being a mother the wind in your ears?" Even the county respected this marriage, even if San Lang marries someone again in the future, he can't have anything to do with the Liu family...... Go back, there's still guests at home! ”
Suddenly, the Li family had a little more prestige than Mrs. Command, and even ignored the Liu family's wedding team, and returned to the Shen family's courtyard with his family.
Qian looked at the wedding sedan chair in the distance, and felt pity for a while, in fact, she didn't agree with this marriage from the beginning, because she felt that her son was not very capable, and he should be the right person, and he should find a daughter from a small family, and he should not be greedy for the woman's marriage.
Who knew that the Li family was very insistent and wanted to find a rich gentleman's daughter as a daughter-in-law for San Lang, and specially told the matchmaker not to let the matchmaker tell the other party that the Shen family Saburo was actually a white ding who worked as a coolie, otherwise there would be no such temporary change of hexagram.
The Liu family's withdrawal from the marriage is actually the Li family's "self-inflicted blame", if it were not for Shen Xizhong's champion, the Shen family's dumb loss could only be admitted, not only San Lang would not be able to get a daughter-in-law for the rest of his life, but even the Shen family's nephews would have extra difficulties in marrying a wife in their later lives.
However, Qian's mercy quickly evaporated.
Thinking that the little son of the old family won the champion, according to the Li family, the little son is prosperous, and the whole family of the Shen family will follow the glory, and in the future, the Shen family can only pick the fat and choose the thin, and no one will dare to regret it when it comes to the end! With Shen Xi becoming an official, the Shen family was officially promoted to the official eunuch family, and if there was anything that mattered, he only needed to submit a letter to the yamen, and the government would naturally handle the matter properly.
On the high entrance of the hall, the good news of the champion of Shenxi High School was hung, and everyone would congratulate them when they saw the good news, whether they knew how to read or not.
The Li family stood in the main hall in the front yard, and the people of the Shen family's main line and side branches all regarded her as the head of the family, and the words of congratulations were like a surging river, flattering the Li family all over the body.
Li's eyebrows danced and said: "My grandson is the champion, and he will never forget the Shen clan, and the archway of the champion in the coming day will be erected, and the glory of the ancestors will not be a problem, and it is not necessary that the names of the children of the same sect will be engraved on it." ”
Shen Mingwen cleared his throat and reminded: "Mother, the archway is set up by the government, let's not count." ”
Li's face turned sharply, and she glared at Shen Mingwen coldly, if it weren't for the presence of all the guests, she would have slapped this uninteresting eldest son with a wave of her hand.
The old lady wants to show her majesty in front of the Shen clan, you are sincere in making the old lady not come to the stage, right?
"Auntie, don't be angry, what Mingwen said is also right, it doesn't matter whether the name of the children of the same sect is engraved on the archway, the important thing is that the nephew won the champion and can shadow my Shen family."
The people on the other side of the Shen family's big house hurriedly spoke.
To say that among the people of the same clan of the Shen family, the relationship with the Li family is not bad, it is a big house, every time the Li family enters Ninghua County, they will live in the big house, and people do not dislike her to disturb. Since the same sect has helped, now people want to ask for a return, who made everyone surnamed Shen?
Anyone surnamed Shen next to him, regardless of how many generations he has a relationship with Shen Xi, the new champion, will follow the help.
Li said: "This is natural, but now my family Qilang is an official in the capital, and the mountains and rivers are far away, but I expect that when he becomes an official in a few years, if I and my sons and nephews go to the yamen, I just have to ask him to help settle down in the yamen." ”
Li's words made the Shen people present excited, and someone hurriedly said: "That's good, with Auntie's words, I'll rest assured." Let's go, go out for a banquet, the Shen family doesn't have enough tables here, just go to the other people's houses of the Shen family to get it, even if our Shen family is down, this celebration banquet can still afford it......"
The courtyard is lively, and there is still an endless stream of people who come to give gifts.
Li Shi took the time to pull Shen Mingxin's sleeve and said, "Fourth, don't patronize and go out to greet people, go back and pack up, tomorrow you accompany your mother to Fucheng, bring more gifts, and thank your mother's family for ......."
Shen Mingxin said: "Mother, everyone is a family, and the old man and his daughter-in-law don't need your thanks." ”
Li suddenly wiped away tears: "Mother feels sorry for them, all these years...... Mother's all thoughts are on your eldest brother, even Qilang is studying, I told Mr. Su, just barely fool the past, let Qilang recognize himself, take a break from school early and go home to learn carpenter work with you, just have a craft to support himself in this life, anyway, he already has a child daughter-in-law, marries a wife and has children, and lives a stable life, who knows...... Alas! It's only been a few years, and it feels like it's gone in the blink of an eye, and your eldest brother isn't even a lifter, why did Shichiro win the top prize? ”
Only then did Shen Mingxin know that the old lady was desperate for the sake of the old family, and she actually went to Shen Xi's enlightenment teacher Su Yunzhong to make it bad.
Shen Mingxin thought to himself: "According to what my mother said, if it weren't for Qilang following his parents into Fucheng, he would have taken a leave of absence from school to work as a carpenter with me at this time, and my Shen family would have to make a move, not to mention when someone would be among the jinshi and champions!" ”
Li Shi thought thoughtfully: "These old daughters-in-law follow the women of the Lu family to do business, there are too many rumors outside, I asked the old woman to ask his daughter-in-law not to do it several times, but he didn't listen." I'm afraid that the couple held a grudge against their mother and refused to let Qilang study, Qilang has the ability, they want to break up, and they are worried that their mother will not be able to cure them...... I'm a mother, I'm going to kowtow to them a few times, as a confession of mistake, let's just break up the Shen family......"
Shen Mingxin hurriedly said: "Mother, don't think about it, the old man and his daughter-in-law are not that kind of people!" ”
Saying this, Shen Mingxin himself felt that he lacked confidence.
In fact, he and Feng have been in the countryside for many years, and they have talked about family affairs more than once, and they all feel that the old lady is too biased, and the old and young of this family basically revolve around Shen Mingwen alone, first to take the exam, and then to take the exam.
Even if the Li family let Shen Yuan study, Shen Mingxin and his wife wanted to split up and work alone as soon as possible.
The fourth room is still like this, the other people's houses are doing big business in Fucheng, and they also use the money they earn to support the Shen family, even so they can't get the approval of the Li family, are people stupid and willing to live with such an old lady?
Now that Shen Xi has won the top prize in the examination, it is estimated that he will soon go to the capital to live a good life with his son, and he has not separated from his family, in fact, it is not much different from his family.
……
……
In the capital city of Tingzhou, Shen Mingjun and his wife are also holding a banquet to entertain guests at this time, whether they know each other or not, and whether they give gifts or not, as long as they come, they are guests, and the flowing water banquet is opened every day.
What's more, those gentry landlords, chamber of commerce colleagues, and Shen Xi's classmates who came to congratulate all gave generous gifts, and not only did not lose money by holding this banquet, but also made a lot of money.
In fact, his husband and wife really didn't plan to go to the capital to find their son to live, because they had inquired, even if Shen Xi was an official now, he was also an official in the "Qingshui Yamen" like the Hanlin Academy, and he didn't have much money to support Xie Yun'er, Lin Dai and a few girls or okay, but if he and his wife went again, it would be to cause trouble for their son.
In their minds, as long as their son is promising, it doesn't matter whether they can be by their son's side or not, they hope that their son can become a bigger official in the future, and no one dares to bully him wherever he goes, that's enough.
The flowing water banquet was held for three days in a row, and Hui Niang was also busy with it, inviting many people from tenant families to come over to help.
Now Hui Niang has bought hundreds of acres of land in Fucheng, and the Shen and Lu families can be regarded as big landlords, but the Shen family's land is temporarily under Hui Niang's name, which is also the Zhou family's fear that the land will be taken away by her mother-in-law.
After these three days, the excitement in Zhou's heart precipitated a little, and he began to think about something more practical, such as whether he should go back to Ninghua to report the good news to the old lady, or send some silver money to his son, so that his son can have some silver in the court?
After all these years of doing business, she didn't learn anything else, only that it was difficult to move an inch without money in officialdom.
Please give gifts for errands, give gifts during the New Year's holidays, and give gifts for red and white things...... Shen Xi has just become an official, he is young, he has no backers in the imperial court, if he doesn't even have money, who will help him and pave the way for his future career?
"Xiao Lang has just won the championship, he will be an official in the Hanlin Academy for a few days, and when he comes out of the Hanlin Academy, he may be a local parent official, and there are not many places where he really needs to use silver."
Hui Niang comforted Zhou's relaxation, but she was more thoughtful, in the past three days, she had already let people bet a boatload of tea to be shipped to the capital, and at the same time brought a box of silver to Shen Xi, no matter whether Shen Xi can use it or not, there is always a good case of silver.
