Meng Zhen is still very confident in her younger brother, Meng Qi, this kid looks like a gentle and humble little scholar, but in fact, this kid is a real sesame-stuffed white skin bun.

In addition, he has learned martial arts from Su Shen and Meng Zhen for so many years, and when the idlers want to gnaw him as a soft persimmon, he will definitely be able to break off a few teeth of the other party.

As for those who rely on the power of their families to do mischief in the country, this kind of person Meng Qi may not be able to deal with it himself, but there is not Li Zhengshan standing behind him.

With him supporting Meng Qi, no one in Beijing dared to use the word "power" to bully Meng Qi.

After all, when it comes to power, except for His Majesty the Emperor, there is no one in this capital who can compare to the Qin Palace.

Although the crown prince is said to be the prince, he is in a high position and has a lot of scruples.

On the one hand, the development of the other princes' power was largely restricted by His Majesty the Emperor, and on the other hand, they did not have the accumulated military exploits of the King of Qin.

And Li Zhengshan is the only son of King Qin, not only the future King of Qin, but also deeply trusted by the emperor, and is the object of the crown prince and other princes.

With him protecting Meng Qi, unless the powerful children of the capital are blind, no one dares to trouble Meng Qi.

The two said that they would send Meng Qi to Guozijian to study together when the time came, and then they began to discuss inviting a cultural lesson for a few little children in the family.

Yan Zhenwu and Hao Mengyun's eldest son has reached the age of enlightenment, and the other children in the family will grow up one after another in the next few years.

In this way, Meng Zhen is not about to start thinking about the master's affairs.

In addition to teaching children to read and write, the master of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and female celebrity cooking, Meng Hao also plans to invite some to come back and raise them according to the children's preferences.

She doesn't plan to train her daughter to be an all-rounder, and she doesn't want Xiao Nianhe to earn her back the title of a "talented girl" in the future.

Not to mention a few kids, whatever they like to learn, Meng Zhen will let them learn.

Those who don't like to learn, except for martial arts and reading and literacy, which are mandatory, Meng Zhen will not force them to learn.

After all, just reading and practicing martial arts, the children are busy enough, and Meng Zhen doesn't plan to add too much burden to the children in other aspects.

Her children, she only hopes that they can live in this world safely, safely, and healthily.

She hopes that they will have a strong heart, a strong physique, and the ability to make a living, as for those icing on the cake and the like, Meng Zhen does not force it.

Su Shen and Meng Zhen agreed on this point, both of them had lost their loved ones, and for them, nothing was more important than a family reunion and peace and security.

***

Time came to the day of Su Shen's rest, and the Su family was full of guests on this day, and it was lively for nearly a day.

These colleagues of Su Shen have a completely different way of having fun than Meng Zhen and their female dependents.

People don't listen to dramas or books, and during the nearly one day spent in the Su family, these people either got together to discuss ancient books and classics, or you and I entertained themselves with wine and a couplet.

Meng Zhen didn't show up all day, and she appointed Sister-in-law Guo and Cedar as the general leaders, and asked them to work together to ensure that the guests in the front yard had food, drink, and a place to rest.

Of course, she didn't forget to let people guard the second door between the front yard and the back yard to prevent all the disgusting things that could happen.

This is an important lesson she has learned from her own experience of attending banquets several times.

The prosperity of the capital is indeed prosperous, and the wealth is also really rich, but the more prosperous and rich the place, the more bad things are so many that people can't count them at all.

Meng Zhen is already one of the few officials and family members to attend banquets, and since she entered Beijing, she has only attended about seven or eight banquets at Su Shen's colleagues' homes.

But even so, Meng Zhen still saw all kinds of unsightly things in these banquets.

What maid takes the opportunity to climb into bed, what guest looks ugly by covering his face with wine, what one or even a few girls who come to be a guest are calculated openly and secretly by the host's family or others who also come to be guests......

Meng Zhen is thoughtful and skilled, plus there is Shen Wutuo by her side. The subordinates who taught her to protect her at any time, although there were many calculations against her, she had never suffered a loss or fallen into a pit.

Not only has she never suffered a loss or fallen into a pit, but Meng Hao even saved two poor girls who were calculated.

However, after all, she only went to other people's houses as a guest, and the chance of occasionally running into these dirty things was too small.

More often than not, it was only after the incident that she and most of the guests heard from others such as "who and who and what happened".

Meng Hao doesn't know how others feel every time they encounter this kind of thing, but she really hates this kind of so-called "banquet" where things always happen.

That's why Meng Zhen attends these banquets less and less.

"If you don't want to go, you don't have to go again." When she talked to Su Shen about her true feelings, Su Shen chose to indulge her daughter-in-law very much.

In his words, "You have to take care of this big stall at home every day, take care of your two children, and run those industries in Ninghai County, if you don't feel tired, I will be tired for you." ”

"Besides, this officialdom should have been handled by me, even if there was no so-called lady communication with them, your husband's errand would not be unbearable."

In Su Shen's view, the so-called lady communication that is prevalent in the capital today should actually be regarded as an extension and expansion of officialdom strictly speaking.

The wives who are not much different in status or who are not in harmony with each other in the family openly and secretly compare, show off, fight openly and secretly, and by the way, they also try their best to convince those who are much higher than their own family, or step on a few feet whose status is far inferior to their own family.

These things were simply boring in Su Shen's opinion.

And he felt that he was just a gentleman, and it was too much to socialize with a lady.

Rather than letting his wife accompany others with smiles and say good things as a low-level official, and being bullied or excluded by others, Su Shen is still more inclined to work hard by himself.

He wants to rely on his continuous efforts to shelter his wife and children from the wind and rain, and he wants Meng Zhen and their children to live comfortably.

Compared with trampling Old Man Su and others under his feet forever, and realizing the so-called "ambitions" and "ambitions" in the mouths of his colleagues, Su Shen feels that supporting his wife and children is the biggest motivation for him to continue to climb in the officialdom.
