On August 13, Shen Mingjun and his wife returned to Ninghua with Shen Yun and Shen Yier, which was the first time that the couple returned to their hometown after Shen Xi won the top prize.

The old lady asked Shen Mingxin not to do carpenter work in the first two days, and went to the south gate of Ninghua City to wait, this was for fear that Shen Mingjun's family of four would arrive in advance, but Shen Mingjun and his wife were delayed on the road, originally said that it would arrive at noon on August 13, but when the sun set, the couple was late, which disappointed the guests waiting in the courtyard of the Shen family.

When the carriage of Shen Mingjun and his wife arrived at the door of Shen's house, firecrackers rang out, and the Li family personally took the Shen family out to greet them, and the welcome to the youngest son and his wife was even grander than that of Jianzhi County.

The Wang family next to him smiled coldly and muttered: "It's just that Zhuangyuanlang's father and mother are here, and he himself may have forgotten that it is our Shen family!" ”

Shen Mingjun drove to the door of the house by himself, helped his wife and children get out of the carriage, Li stepped forward with a smile, held his son's hand and asked, "My son, are you back?" ”

"Mother."

Shen Mingjun hurriedly knelt down and saluted his mother.

Li hurriedly said: "No need to be polite, get up and talk, there are not so many rules in my own family, let me see my grandson, I haven't seen him for a few days, and he has grown so tall...... Oops, it looks like his brother......"

Zhou hurriedly pulled his son: "Don't call grandma yet, forget what my mother told you?" ”

"Grandma...... I want grandma ......."

After saying that, Shen Yun was so frightened that he hurriedly hugged the old lady's leg, and it was obvious that the "grandma" he said was not the same thing as what Zhou asked him to say.

However, Shen Yi'er next to him raised his head, looked at Li carefully, didn't mean to see anything at all, and stepped forward and said, "Hello, grandmother." ”

"Little Nini is so good, how old is she?"

The Li family has always had a bad face for the daughters and granddaughters of the family, but who called this the little granddaughter of the house?

The first house has a champion father, this is the champion sister, and in the future, there will be a brother to support her, which son of a dignitary family will not come to the door to kiss? Can such a "daughter" be compared with those girls whose lives are cheaper than grass?

"I'm four years old!"

Shen Yier reported her age.

"That's good, that's good."

Li caressed Shen Yi'er's little face lovingly, with indescribable love.

This made the Qian family in the second room look very uncomfortable, and muttered: "I have never seen a girl in the family who hurts so much, is it a wild girl who is popular......

Shen Mingjun and his wife helped the old lady into the courtyard from left to right, and many guests came up to congratulate him...... Knowing that the father and mother in front of him are the champions, they don't stammer now, and when the champion takes his father and mother into the capital, there is no place to stammer.

"The Shen family is really auspicious, it must be the ancestral tomb with good feng shui, so this is the champion."

"Shen Zhuangyuan is now a member of the sixth rank in the court, and he will definitely live in the first rank in the future."

The praise and compliments were endless, and Wang spared no effort to correct it beside him: "It's not the sixth grade, it's from the sixth grade, and I only work in the Hanlin Academy, and I can't compare with the county master." ”

Zhou was very unhappy when she heard Wang's words, but she is now not what it used to be, and when she saw her sister-in-law, she didn't have to send money to others with her face to spend, she didn't dare to spend money before, for fear that someone would target her, and she was afraid that all the rooms in the family would be jealous and red-eyed, and now she has no scruples about spending, who called my son the champion Lang, and even the prefect who was high above did not dare to offend the Shen family?

"Sister-in-law is wrong, we just received Xiaolang's family letter, saying that he has been promoted to Zhan Shifu Right Chunfang Right Zhongyun, and the official of the Hanlin Academy continues to work in the past, but now he is responsible for teaching the prince to read, and he is already a member of the six products." Zhou said with a smug face.

When she received Shen Xi's letter from home before, she spent a lot of effort in order to remember Shen Xi's official title, and she was awkward at first, but she was wrong when she said it, so she kept it in her heart all the time, and then asked Hui Niang and Xiaoyu from time to time to ask them to correct it, and now she finally said it clearly, not stuck at all.

The old lady was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "It's only been a few days since I took office, and I'm in the sixth grade?" ”

Zhou helped the old lady and said with a smile: "I came back this time to give you good news." ”

"Yes, yes."

The old lady smiled from ear to ear, "Qilang, he really has the ability, he is a big official in the capital, you little ones learn more, and you will have a future in the future, Qilang can help you more in the court!" ”

Dalang Shen Yongzhuo took the lead in saying: "What grandmother said is true. ”

The Shen clan and the neighbors are all sighing that the Shen family is really a harmonious family.

Wang's heart is called a hate, even his son seems to be confused by the people in this room, no matter how capable he is, can he remember you, the eldest brother? Why didn't he win the champion and write back immediately, saying that he would arrange an errand for his peers and nephews in the family?

Qian muttered there: "Didn't the two of them come back for the Mid-Autumn Festival?" How did it become the Annunciation? ”

The Wang family and the Qian family glanced at each other, they used to be enemies, but now they are more and more pleasing to the eye, they are still their own sisters, and now they want to join forces to deal with the common enemy of the Zhou family.

"Let's go to the ancestral hall first."

As soon as the old lady said a word, the house would follow suit, and even the guests followed the Shen family to pay their respects.

Zhou said: "Let the prime minister go, the concubine is waiting outside." ”

The old lady said: "A good daughter-in-law raised a champion for my Shen family, the ancestors are grateful that they will not dislike you as an outsider, go in together, and when you die in the future, the tablet will also be enshrined." ”

Both the Wang family and the Qian family are dissatisfied, why can a woman's tablet be enshrined in the ancestral hall? I've never heard of such a rule!

But the old lady's position in the family is now more and more consolidated, and it seems that no one can shake the authority of the old lady except for the Zhou family, but now the old lady is helping the Zhou family establish her prestige, and the Zhou family can't be angry with her mother-in-law at all.

Therefore, even if the Wang family and the Qian family are indignant but there is nothing they can do, now the Li family is not to say that they are in charge of their own family, the entire Shen family, including the previous main line and side branches, regard the Li family as the "main house" of the Shen family, and they may be elected to let the Li family come out to be the head of the Shen family, and now they come out to challenge the authority of the Li family, and they will inevitably die an ugly death.

The family is prosperous, but the Li family has two sons, Shen Mingyou and Shen Mingtang, who are not there, one is missing, and the other accompanied the young master of the Wang family to the capital to catch the exam.

Shen Mingwen, Shen Mingxin, and Shen Mingjun entered the ancestral hall together and kowtowed, and even the Zhou family took their son in to salute, and then they came out, and the Li family announced the banquet.

The Shen family's family banquet was much more lively than before.

In the past, even if the Shen family had any happy events, they wanted to marry a daughter-in-law to welcome a kiss, and the guests who came just casually gave a salute and then waited to eat and drink, but now the Shen family is the champion, don't you give some gifts, are you embarrassed to visit in the future? If you encounter something difficult, you want the Shen family to come forward to help, and if you don't have a good impression, can someone come forward?

Therefore, now that the Shen family is holding a banquet, although it will also lose, it will not be as outrageous as before.

In addition to encountering big things, he also spent a lot of money to buy land from the neighbors and expand the Shen family's mansion, in addition to the north and south courtyards, and expanded several side courtyards on the east and west sides, so that each house of the Shen family basically has its own yard, even if the son gets married, there is a place to live, and the Li family is determined to let the Shen family develop in this big family way forever.

The Li family sat at a table with several heads of the Shen family and side branches, along with the three Shen Mingwen brothers, as well as the Zhou family, Shen Yun and Shen Yi'er.

Wufang has a champion here, his parents and younger siblings are also soaring in the Shen family's status, Wang is very angry that his son can't sit at the main table, and just sits down and nags: "My eldest man is the eldest grandson of the eldest house!" ”

"Mother, don't talk about it." Shen Yongzhuo looked embarrassed, and his wife Lu Shi next to him lowered her head, not wanting to get involved in family disputes.

Wang said angrily: "How can you not say it? In the future, maybe the house will become the head of the family, what is your status in the family? It's also that you have no talent, even if you don't win the top prize, you should be a talent early and go to the exam like your father...... When the exams come back, we can split up and pass! ”

When Qian Shi heard this, he said in a sarcastic tone: "Yo, sister-in-law, this is thinking about the separation of the family, have you asked your mother?" ”

Wang glanced at Qian in annoyance, and thought, aren't we two of the same heart, why did we have infighting in a blink of an eye?

Qian is not stupid on this issue!

My husband is gone, and my son doesn't have a student, so I can still follow the Shen family to eat and drink spicy food without separating the family, and there will be nothing left after the family is separated. Even if I don't accept it, I have to be kind to the five-room couple, and if there is an old lady for a day, maybe my son can go out with Qilang and be a little official!

Fortunately, this table is full of women and children of the Shen family, and the third daughter-in-law, Shen Sun, is honest and will not stir up trouble. But at this moment, Shen Sun's face was a little worried: "I don't know when my father-in-law will come back, I will ask my younger brother and sister in a while, if Qilang's family letter mentions his third uncle." ”

During the banquet, the guests all came to toast the old lady and Shen Mingjun and his wife, Zhou didn't drink, so he needed Shen Mingjun to block the wine, Shen Mingjun was not a good drinker, and after a few glasses, people couldn't sit still.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Li hurriedly asked Zhou to add food to Shen Mingjun, and said to the guests: "Oh, it's not early this day, you have eaten the food quickly, and it will be difficult to walk when it gets dark." ”

After all, the banquet didn't last long, and a neighbor who was in distress and just gave a few eggs asked, "Old lady, does the Shen family want to hold a banquet during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" ”

Wang stood up and said disdainfully: "If you want to set up a family banquet, you give such a little gift, what's wrong with eating it?" ”

Li Shi said angrily: "Shut up! ”

When holding a banquet, generally speaking, women are not allowed to interject, and the Li family, as the head of the family, rarely speaks on such occasions, let alone the Wang family.

Shen Mingwen looked at his face and said, "Mother, you dissipate your anger." ”

"Don't care about your daughter-in-law, is this where she speaks? Our Shen family is not as good as before, of course the Mid-Autumn Festival will set up a banquet to entertain guests, Mingjun, the banquet the day after tomorrow will be in charge of you and your daughter-in-law, and none of these other sons and daughters-in-law will make your mother worry. ”

Li scolded Wang in front of the guests, this kind of thing has happened before, but it has never made Wang unable to come to the stage like today.

Wang's face was ashamed, didn't I just say a word for my family and scold those scoundrels who ate and drank for nothing? Mother, you treat me like this, but when our husband and wife and mother and son don't exist?

Wang sat down and began to wipe her tears there, and her daughter-in-law Lu quickly handed over the handkerchief: "Mother, you can relax." ”

"What's relieved, this ...... We just can't get by. ”

Wang continued to shout in front of the guests, and simply broke the jar, "Xianggong, since this family can't accommodate us, then why do we stay here?" We're going to split up! ”

"You...... You repeat! ”

Li's eyes widened, and he glared at Wang with a furious expression, clenching his fists and about to hit someone at any time.

Wang sneered: "I just said, how is it?" Separation! Be sure to split up! You, a mother, have a biased heart, and have always been oriented towards your youngest son, and now all the neighbors are commenting on it, how can there be no distinction between such a family? ”
