Chapter 407: Heart Disease
Who is the eldest brother of the Shen family, although Xu Xun, who has only seen him, knows very well.
Shen Guang only married a wife, did not take a concubine, has a son and a daughter under his knees, Shen Ke was not weak in the crown in Jinling, where talents gathered, even passed the county test, the government test, the hospital test, all of the rankings are among the top ten, although the head of the township test is a kick in the door, but it is just a subject to the halberd to return, and it is nothing to put in the talent-rich Nanzhili. However, maybe it's because he reads too much, maybe it's because the shrewdness is all attributed to his father, and the dexterity is taken up by his sister, and he has always had a bit of a nerdy atmosphere. But compared with Shen Guang's sleek sophistication, Xu Xun has a better impression of him.
Knowing that the Zhao family forced her sister to marry and coveted the Shen family's property, Shen Ke and Shen Guang had a dispute, and insisted that the marriage contract could not be annulled, and she wanted to go to the yamen to complain, but Shen Guang was imprisoned in the ancestral hall for reflection; After the Zhao family made up his mind, he planned to connect with his classmates in Yingtianfu to make trouble, but before he could contact the two of them, he was locked in the house by Shen Guang; After Shen Yue threw himself into the river on the Wende Bridge, he went crazy and personally led his subordinates to search along the entire Qinhuai River for three days without sleep...... He also learned all this from Chen Lu later.
Now that we have seen each other after more than a year, although Shen Ke was in a hurry just now, he was very incoherent when he spoke in a hurry, but at this moment he saluted and thanked him, and then explained the reason why his father did not come out, Xu Xun couldn't help but feel that Shen Ke was a little less roundabout than before, and a little more calm, thinking that it was also the growth of the family after the great changes. At this moment, seeing the little girl squinting at him, he naturally wouldn't let his eldest brother bend his waist like this all the time, and immediately helped the person up with both hands.
"The family doesn't talk about two families, Miss Shen has been so wronged, I just do my best, and I can't talk about it." In front of others, Xu Xun could only put away the intimate title, and then said to Shen Yue with concern, "Since your father is sick, let's not talk here, hurry up and go in to see if it's serious." β
Shen Ke saw that his sister was also biting her lip and her face was anxious, so she didn't say anything else at the moment, and nodded heavily. However, walking on the road, I saw Xu Xun leisurely greeting the old eunuch in a red robe, but instead of being arrogant, the other party said good things with a smile on his face, and the middle-aged palace maid in a purple shirt and red dress next to Shen Yue supported her diligently, saying something If there is anything bad about Master Shen, just say that there are precious medicinal materials in the palace, he unconsciously had a thought in his heart.
My father's illness this time, in addition to the cold and hard work that came all the way by land, I am afraid it is more of a heart disease!
Although there was no one in charge of things in the family, Shen Yue stayed at home, and Zhu Ying was still in the inner courtyard, so as soon as the father and son of the Shen family came to the door, the two girls who were usually quite defensive against each other combined, thinking that it was too late to make temporary arrangements, so the surname Suo welcomed them to Shen Yue's courtyard. And when they learned that Shen Guang had been infected with the wind and cold for more than a day, the two of them brought people to serve one another, and the other ordered someone to ask for a doctor, which was a long time. At this moment, seeing a large number of people coming in, and the two were about to report after saluting, Xu Xun shook his hand, and sure enough, the next moment, Shen Yue rushed into the West House with her skirt. Seeing that Shen Ke followed, Eunuch Qian and the people of the palace also entered the room with low eyebrows, Xu Xun made a gesture for Ruyi to follow and take a look, but he beckoned to Zhu Ying.
The two of them walked out of the main room, and the cold wind was howling outside, so Xu Xun motioned for Zhu Ying to follow him into the West House to talk. There was originally a girl in the room who was cleaning up, and seeing that Xu Xun obviously had something to ask Zhu Ying, she immediately saluted and avoided it. At this time, Xu Xun sat down on the circle chair in the center and asked in a deep voice: "After the Shen family came, tell me everything one by one." β
For this young master, Zhu Ying didn't even dare to have the slightest disobedience, lowered her hand and lowered her head to think for a moment, then she said softly: "Master Shen and Shen Gongzi are in the main hall, Miss Shen entered the palace one after another after receiving the order in this courtyard, and only then did she come to the door." Because the master and the young master are not there, and Miss Shen is not there, so I invited my sister Ruyi to go to the door, and the two sides recognized that Master Shen was not very good, or Shen Gongzi said that Master Shen was sick on the road, and the slave maid immediately went to ask people to ask for a doctor. β
Not long after hearing that it was the will issued, the father and son of the Shen family came to the door, Xu Xun lowered his eyelids, and he couldn't see much joy and anger on his face, but he knew in his heart that it would not be such a coincidence. Calculate the calculation, when the East Factory and the West Factory asked people to visit Nanjing one after another, the Shen family got the news. At that time, it was already winter, the canal was frozen and it was not good to take a boat, and even the New Year was outside in a hurry, which was extremely rare for the world's heaviest nostalgia today. Besides, Shen Guang is already nearly fifty years old, and in this kind of cold and flu, he may lose his surname and hurry up, and his heart is about to have mixed feelings. When he arrived in the capital, he was timid, but Shen Guang, who was a father, hesitated and didn't dare to come to the door to recognize him, which was probably the biggest surname.
Xu Xun interrogated Zhu Ying there, and Shen Yue, who had been reunited after a long absence, was also surprised to see his father's appearance. She was born with a strong surname, and when she learned that her father agreed to the marriage against her will because she was afraid of the power of the Zhao family, she didn't have much hatred, but she just made a ruthless plan, and when she reunited with Xu Xun after jumping on the Wende Bridge, she couldn't help but cry when she thought of saying goodbye to her family forever. At this moment, kneeling on the pedal in front of the bed, she listened to Shen Ke whisper about the passage of Beijing on this road, and heard her father squirm his lips and say sorry, she only felt that her nose was sour, and she couldn't help but hold his hand tightly.
"Dad, don't say it, I know, I know you're a last resort...... It's all my fault, I shouldn't have tossed around without leaving any information, so that you can keep your mind on your ......"
Although Nanjing and the capital are thousands of miles apart, since the Shen family has Fu Rong to take care of them, many news have also reached their ears one by one. First, Xu Liang successfully attacked the knight, followed by Xu Xun to be the official in charge of the army, and then led the troops to the banner to win, and he was named the earl, and he was the most trusted courtier in front of the emperor...... Shen Guang couldn't believe all the news, you must know that he never thought that the young man he looked down on at that time would be so brilliant in just one step to the capital. Even though Xu Xun had hinted that Shen Yue had not died in the past, he no longer had much extravagant hope in his heart.
But who would have thought that Xu Xun was serious when he went to the Shen family to admit this family matter, and even alarmed many big people to send people to Jinling to visit, and Fu Rong finally personally arranged for Chen Lu to pick a few people to escort his father and son into Beijing.
"Yue'er ......" held his daughter's hand tightly with his backhand, Shen Guangliang didn't know what to say for a long time, his eyes swept over the two eunuchs and palace people who stood together, as if they were not very inconspicuous, he said bitterly, "Your mother originally insisted on coming, but it was cold, your grandmother was sick again, and your brother spent an unknown amount of effort to persuade them to ...... at home."
"Grandmother is sick?" Shen Yue, who was kneeling on the pedal in front of the bed, suddenly widened her eyes and asked eagerly, "What is the grandmother doing now...... No, I'm going back to Nanjing, I'm going to see my grandmother! β
"Yue'er." Shen Ke saw that Shen Yue was full of panic, so he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "Grandmother is fine." If you want to go back to Nanjing, you are not in a hurry At this time, my father and I have already suffered enough when we rushed into Beijing all the way, how can I let you toss like this again? Wait until the spring flowers bloom and let's go on the road again, it's better to take a boat all the way than a bumpy carriage......"
"The Queen Mother has given marriage, how can she go back to Nanjing at this time!" Shen Guang reluctantly interrupted his son's words, took a breath, and then he said word by word, "If you can live well, your grandmother can rest assured." After marrying as the wife of the Xu family, you will serve your father-in-law and take care of your husband with peace of mind, and you don't need to worry about the affairs of the Shen family. Your brother is now able to take charge on his own, and I am still in my prime, so you don't have to worry......"
After hearing so much, Eunuch Qian was already convinced that there was no doubt about this matter, he glanced at the palace person, and saw that he was also slightly bowing, so he quietly moved back with him, and finally was about to dodge out, but unexpectedly, someone rushed in front of them and opened a curtain to come in, it was Xu Xun. Seeing that the three members of the Shen family in front of the bed over there didn't pay attention to this, Eunuch Qian smiled and bowed, and when he saw Xu Xun get out of the way, he immediately hurried out with the palace people.
Shen Guang on the bed didn't pay attention to the movement in front of the door, paused and then took his daughter's hand and said bitterly: "Yue'er, I was confused back then, and I caused you a lot of trouble in the future." After you marry Xu Xun, you must not rely on your past feelings to criticize him, what matters to a woman is to be supple, and besides, the head of the Shen family will be difficult to support you in the future......"
Before he finished speaking, Shen Ke in the back finally couldn't help but interrupt: "Dad, although the Shen family's family is far inferior to the Bofu, but everything has a reason, why is it difficult for us to support Yue'er?" Besides, if Xu Xun is such a person, he should learn to talk to the protagonists in the book of love and righteousness, marry a famous daughter and come back to be in charge, and then welcome the fiancΓ©e woman who was set in front of him home is considered to be full of affection, this can be regarded as a beautiful talk, where will he ask the queen mother to give marriage! β
"Well said!"
Xu Xun, who had been silent, finally praised it, and when he saw Shen Ke immediately turned his head, his face was a little unnatural, and Shen Yue wiped his eyes vigorously, and then turned around and said, "Why don't you speak out early, you want to be sneaky!" β
"Ahem...... cough cough ......" Shen Guang wanted to speak, but before he could say anything, he choked and coughed, and after several sounds, he barely stopped, but said in a deep voice, "How can you talk to your uncle like this!" β
Seeing that the little girl was reluctantly lowered her head as soon as her father said it, and Shen Ke hurriedly helped Shen Guang to sit up under his father's eyes, Xu Xun stepped forward slowly and said lightly: "Master Shen doesn't need to be harsh, no matter before or now, she has always talked to me like this, and I feel very comfortable listening." If I dislike the Shen family, or remember that the Shen family once wanted to regret the marriage, I wouldn't try to get the Queen Mother to admit this family matter, and you don't have to worry about the little things in the past. β
