Chapter 652: A defeat is like a mountain
Cheng Sixun said such things when he was in his early eighties, and seeing that Wang Fulin and his party actually accompanied him, Aunt Cheng wanted to speak and stopped, but finally did not speak. And Cheng Shihong frowned, but he didn't care that it was his cousin in front of him, and he was furious.
"The patriarch of the Cheng clan in Zhukou has always been public, in the past, those people didn't say a word of justice to you when they were the patriarch, and you didn't stand up and speak up, although I became the patriarch, it was not easy to say anything, but today I endure it, I will not be surnamed Cheng! If the son doesn't teach, the father's fault is true, but where do the three brothers really regard you as their father? If it weren't for you, the three of them would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago, how could they study, so how could Wang Shangning have today? He went to the Jinshi under the name of Cheng Shangning, and when the official became older, he recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors at the instigation of those people in the Wang clan, which is okay, after all, blood is thicker than water. But you have raised the three of them, and one of the three of them should be left for you to be your son, right? ”
In front of everyone's eyes, Cheng Shihong's voice suddenly raised an octave: "I think that they didn't have descendants and heirs to the Cheng family at the beginning, how could this natural thing not work on the three of their brothers?" The son doesn't think the mother is ugly, the dog doesn't think the family is poor, they dare to use this reason to arrange Qiu Feng, how can they put it on themselves, they dare to dislike the stepfather's family does not have many fields and property, and they recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors, and even a son is not willing to be placed under your knees as heirs, don't you just feel that you can touch Wang Shangning's light with a Wang character? Do not do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and if you don't understand this truth, you will read all the books to dogs! ”
This old patriarch of the Cheng clan is really strong in combat!
Even if it was Wang Fulin, he couldn't help but be a little amazed at this moment. He himself is very good at fighting with words, so he naturally has a feeling of sympathy for this kind of talent who can catch the idea as quickly as possible, even if it is enough for someone to be his grandfather. Therefore, seeing that Wang Youmin, who was quite familiar with him, looked like he wanted to find a crack to drill down. The old man on the side, who was not very familiar, had already moved two steps quietly, with a posture that I was not the Wang family, and I drew a line with him, Rao is that he followed Cheng Sixun, completely to see the excitement, and finally had to cough.
"Old Patriarch Cheng. Please be merciful. Wang Fulin saw Cheng Shihong temporarily stop talking angrily, and then he spoke, "There is no need to mention the past, as for Qiu Feng's matter, how about we go to the old patriarch's house in a while?" However, I went to see the old lady Xun before, and sat down and talked for a while, and I really admired his old man's righteous behavior for decades. Old Patriarch Cheng just said that in the past, the patriarchs of the Cheng clan did not speak fairly to Old Lady Xun, but I also have to be upset about this. With the virtue of the old lady Xun for more than 40 years of righteousness and not marrying, how can he ask the court to express his righteousness! ”
“……”
When Wang Fulin mentioned this matter in front of Cheng Sixun before. There was a strange silence, and at this moment, he threw out this proposal at the gate of Wang's house, which was also extremely lethal. The people of the Cheng clan in Zhukou were all stunned, Yin Shoushan almost didn't bare out of his eyes, and Wang Youmin quickly realized the mystery after being at a loss at first. He almost subconsciously shouted: "Wang Fulin, you have ill intentions, the imperial court will not approve it!" ”
"Will the imperial court approve it? That's something that you didn't know until after the play, so why do you assert it now? Say I'm ill-intentioned. Oh, the three generations of your Wang family have inherited the grace of the old lady Xun, so that they can have the scene of branching out now, but now they think that he is not even worthy of a righteous husband? You think that the grace of more than ten years of nurturing is only based on the seal of a deputy director of a pedestrian. Can it be completely clean? ”
Wang Fulin asked three questions in a row, and seeing that Wang Youmin was speechless, he didn't pay attention to this guy anymore, and turned to look at Cheng Shihong. Seeing that the old patriarch of the Cheng clan seemed to have just woken up from a dream, he immediately invited him to his home to talk in detail. He beckoned the others to join him, and then pressed Cheng Sixun to the slide pole and walked together. After a while, a large group of people disappeared outside Wang's house.
Faced with this scene, Yin Shoushan glanced at Wang Youmin, who was stunned, and originally wanted to go in and talk to Wang Shangning, but he changed his mind after a while, so he simply called his relatives who came with him and chased after the previous group. After all, he was already at a loss in his heart, wondering if he was going to visit Wang Fulin, and now that the main man happened to appear in Zhuchuan, how could he not seize this opportunity?
Since this matter was just a cup of tea, when Wang Shangning got the news and asked people to come out to inquire again, everyone was gone, and Wang Youmin could only be asked to go in for questioning. Hearing the cause and effect, Wang Shangning did not get angry, nor did he sigh for a long time, but directly closed his eyes and leaned on the Taishi chair, which made Wang Youmin's heart furious.
"Uncle's ......"
"Although I have long known that your grandfather is not a material of officialdom, I didn't expect him to do such a stupid thing back then, but he still doesn't know how to reflect and converge after so many years, and he really lives more and more." The words were heavy, but Wang Shangning's tone was quite calm, but the people close to him could still clearly hear the trace of coldness in it, "I want to see, when he knows that Wang Fulin even forced his father to come out, and even the patriarch of the Cheng clan in Zhukou was alarmed, and it attracted the anger of the Cheng clan, how did he end this scene!" ”
Thinking that Wang Shangxuan, who was the third in line at the beginning, refused to remain surnamed Cheng and continue to be Cheng Sixun's son, and then when he proposed to succeed one of his sons to his stepfather as the heir, Wang Shangxuan refused, and this time he was even more stupid to meddle in the matter of Aunt Cheng's widow and heir, how could the Zhuchuan Wang family be forced to such a point by Wang Fulin all of a sudden?
"Send for your grandfather, and let him come back at once, wherever he is. Also, find someone to find all the people who can speak to the Zhuchuan Wang clan, and tell them that they cried and shouted that I, a Jinshi, must recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, and now if I really make a disturbance about my righteous husband, they are all laughing stocks! ”
Of course, Wang Youmin can understand the matter of looking for his grandfather, but he really doesn't understand the second half of the sentence. After all, Cheng Sixun married a widow, if this can be regarded as a righteous husband, the standard of the imperial court is too low, right? However, when he saw Wang Shangning's cold eyes, he didn't dare to argue for half a word, and hurriedly retreated.
"If you marry a woman who remarries. It is naturally difficult to make the court express its righteous husband. But if one of the stepsons he raised was admitted to the Jinshi, and then he had no heirs, he regarded his stepson as a son, and never remarried or took concubines. has been righteous for decades, so why is it not a righteous husband? There are very few righteous husbands in the imperial court, and most of them are under thirty years old, but if you count according to the actual time, how many people can match the old lady for more than 40 years? Therefore, this matter is promising, and it is at least worth fighting for. ”
When he said these words in front of Cheng Shihong, Wang Fulin glanced at Cheng Sixun, and then looked around at the other Cheng clansmen present. Seeing that most of the faces of the older generation were delicate, but most of the younger generation like Aunt Cheng's nephew nodded their heads in agreement, he said with a smile: "I know that the marriage of the old lady Xun back then had attracted a lot of criticism in the clan, but after all, it has been so many years, and his heirs and grandchildren have all been selected by the Cheng family, and now they are even more affectionate." At present, Lord Shoufu is rectifying the study and politics. Cheng Xiangyuan wants to go to school, and he doesn't rely on talent to learn. And it depends on luck, so if you can have a good look, not to mention special graces such as grace and shadow supervisors, at least, you may be able to add some benefits during the Tao test. This is also a good thing for Cheng. ”
Cheng Shihong was very willing in his heart, but he still asked Cheng Sixun: "Brother Xun, what do you think yourself?" As long as you agree, I have no opinion on this matter! ”
"yes. The important thing is what you think, old lady, if you want me to say it myself, you can fight for this matter. ”
Seeing that everyone was gossiping, most of them agreed, and only a few were cautious, but that caution was only worried that he would fall out with his stepsons, Cheng Sixun couldn't help but sigh, and then said with a wry smile: "I've been guarding it for so many years, I have no desires and no desires, it doesn't matter if I have a watch or not, but after all, Xiangyuan is still young, if it can really be beneficial to him, I am willing to give it a try." It's just that I hurt a lot of people because of my insistence back then, but now I want everyone to run for me, I really can't stand you. ”
Wang Fulin saw Cheng Sixun standing up tremblingly, and actually saluted deeply to the four people, and he couldn't help but have mixed feelings. It is said that the mother is strong when the son is the son, but in fact, why is the father not like this? When the Cheng clan stepped forward to support Cheng Sixun and said comforting words, he noticed that Aunt Cheng's nephew frequently looked at him, but when his eyes were at each other, he hurriedly dodged away a little unnaturally. Knowing what was going on, when everyone sat down again, he put Qiu Feng's matter on the table again.
Although Aunt Cheng said in principle that she was already a married girl with a foreign surname, since she had returned to her hometown in her early years, not to mention that she had been widowed for many years and was a decent person, this time she almost made a big mistake just because she listened to Wang Shangxuan's words, and the other Cheng clan people had to help her speak, and even Aunt Cheng herself was flushed, and she apologized again guiltily. In such an atmosphere, understanding is naturally easy to achieve. Wang Fulin pulled Qiu Feng forward and greatly publicized it. In fact, there is no need for him to praise him, everyone knows Qiu Feng's experience, and they know that he is a showman, so this kind word is naturally like not asking for money.
You must know that now that Zhang Juzheng is studying politics as soon as he completes his studies, Xiucai is not easy to take the exam, such a young Xiucai has become the heir of Aunt Cheng, is it not a cheap thing to pick up for nothing?
So, when Yin Shoushan came over, it was just in time for this matter to be finalized, and he hurriedly took the initiative to intervene as this witness. After all, he is a lifter and an elder, even if he just appeared in the Wang family in Zhuchuan, of course Wang Fulin would not refuse this kindness sent to the door. Although this matter still needs to be entered into the family tree by the patriarch of the Qiu clan, which can be regarded as complete, the ancestors and grandchildren are satisfied with each other, and more than half of it has been completed by this point. Next, Cheng Shihong personally set up a banquet to entertain everyone, and Cheng Sixun even said that it was too late at the banquet, so he left Wang Fulin and others to stay at home for one night and then go back, and Wang Fulin readily agreed.
Taking advantage of Wang Fulin this time to bring Jinbao and Ye Xiaopang, Cheng Shihong took Cheng Xiangyuan from home again, and let several children of the same age eat and talk at the same table, which is naturally the idea of letting them enhance their relationship. As for Xiaobei, it is impossible for her to mess around in the pile of men, she was dragged by the old and young daughters-in-law of the Cheng family to change her clothes, and she had to mix with the third aunt and six mothers-in-law, and she was in the same mood as Aunt Cheng who was in a big mood today, and she was flattered a lot. After all, to a certain extent, Aunt Cheng is now picking up a talented grandson for nothing, but why didn't Xiaobei know that she had picked up a son for nothing before she got married?
On this night, the Cheng family of Zhukou greeted the distinguished guests with joy, and even Yin Shoushan, an uninvited guest, was cheeky to stay at Cheng Sixun's house, but the Wang family of Zhuchuan was really a dignified atmosphere. Wang Shangxuan, who stabbed the basket again, was already like a wilted dish under the repeated accusations of his brothers Wang Shangning and Wang Shangxian, and he didn't dare to say a word listlessly, and as for the elders of the Wang clan who gathered together, they also looked solemn. The discussion has already been discussed, but there is no good idea at all, even if someone has mentioned the in-laws of the Cheng family and the Wang family of Zhuchuan, but seeing that no one responded, he himself knew that he was silent.
After all, after Wang Shangning was admitted to the Jinshi, it was they who persuaded people from the Cheng family to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. This still makes sense, but he didn't leave an heir for Cheng Sixun, which is a loss of favor!
Hearing that someone was accusing himself again, Wang Shangxuan, who was also angry, finally couldn't help but pat the armrest and stood up and said, "Okay, it's all my fault, okay?" But you might as well think about it, if it weren't for Wang Fulin, would the Cheng family be so unrelenting? This guy is a disaster star, wherever he goes, he will be a disaster! Today, you want to calm things down, but you also want people to be willing to let them go, didn't you hear that they all want to give Cheng Sixun a righteous husband? ”
"Cheng Sixun is also what you can call?"
As soon as the words fell, Wang Shangxuan heard a louder slapping sound, and when he saw that it was Wang Shangning, he swallowed it back immediately when he reached the edge of his mouth. And Wang Shangning looked at those patriarchs and elders who were at a loss when things came to an end, and for the first time regretted that they were too single-minded to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. He rubbed his eyebrows, and then said: "It is said that the old man left those people in Songmingshan to stay at home for the night and then left, the matter has come to this point, and the bell must be tied to the bell, I and the third child will go in person, hoping to persuade the old man to come back." I was a little indebted at the beginning, and I can make up for my nephew, but please show some sincerity! ”
I think that when he was a high-ranking official outside, these guys were all wiped out, that is, he returned to his hometown in his prime, and the voice of the Zhuchuan Wang clan is also not small. You must know that as long as this matter is played, it is needless to say whether Cheng Sixun can get a table, but these people will immediately be regarded as cold and disrespectful by nature! Once defeated like a mountain, if this posture continues to develop, the downhill road of the Zhuchuan Wang clan is doomed!
As soon as he heard that the eldest brother wanted to see Cheng Sixun in person, Wang Shangxuan opened his mouth and wanted to object, but was glared back by Wang Shangning's vicious look, so he had to accept this fact with reluctance, but he hated Wang Fulin, who had nothing to do.
