In the morning, Shen Mingqing came out of the courtyard of Mrs. Han, the old lady, and ordered to prepare the car and go to the Big Buddha Temple outside the city.

A few days ago, Fu Wanniang sent a letter to her, and today she and her family are going to the Big Buddha Temple to pray for blessings, and invite her to come over and talk and play.

Fu Wanniang is Shen Mingqing's handkerchief friend since childhood, and the two have nothing to talk about, and they have an excellent relationship.

Fu Wanniang just became married to Zhou Yanyao, the eldest grandson of Zhou Annian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, last fall.

The Fu family is a big family in Huaidong, and the Zhou family, which is a big family in Huaixi, is a family of friends, and everyone in the Zhou family treats Fu Wanniang very well.

But no matter how good it is, marrying a wife and being a girl still can't be compared.

Shen Mingqing hadn't spoken to Fu Wanniang for half a year, and at this moment, he couldn't hold it back.

Shen Mingqing sat patiently in the car, and when he entered the Big Buddha Temple, the Fu family had just arrived at the Big Buddha Temple, and Fu Wanniang was still following everyone to bow and pray in the main hall.

The mother-in-law let Shen Mingqing into the resting room, drank half a cup of tea, and heard a sound of footsteps outside, Shen Mingqing hurriedly put down the cup and welcomed out.

Fu Wanniang followed behind the old lady and lady of the Zhou family, and when she saw Shen Mingqing, her eyes were full of joy.

Shen Mingqing hurriedly stepped forward to say goodbye, the old lady stretched out her hand to pull Shen Mingqing up, and said with a hearty smile: "You haven't seen our Wanniang for a while, right?" It just so happens that you accompany her, go over there to pick up the Fu Dou, and talk well. ”

The old lady said as she smiled and motioned to Fu Wanniang, "Talk to the eldest lady well." ”

Fu Wanniang smiled, lowered her hands and stopped, watched the old lady and the lady enter the wing, and then went into the two wings next to Shen Mingqing.

"This Fudou belongs to the old lady?" Entering the wing room, Shen Mingqing pointed to the half-human-tall Fudou basket in the middle of the room and asked.

"Hmm." Fu Wanniang motioned to the girl to put some Fu Dou on the kang table, and served tea and snacks, and the two sat opposite each other, and they didn't pick up Fu Dou for a while to talk.

"How sick is your old lady? He said he was going to make him a minister, have you heard? Shen Mingqing said with concern.

"It's ...... sick," Fu Wanniang dragged a long voice, "That's it." Zhishi's matter, where do you need to say! I've thought about it a long time ago, the old lady seems to have been on several folds, saying that she is seriously ill or something. ”

"Your old lady is only in her early sixties, why do you ...... Is this really going to be refunded? Shen Mingqing frowned.

"Our old lady," Fu Wanniang moved forward and approached Shen Mingqing, "I fell ill after Aunt Shan's death, and it is not appropriate to say that she is sick, according to our lady's words, she has lost her spirit." ”

"You old lady is really, this big family, with children, daughters, children and grandchildren, can't you still have a favorite? What about you old ladies? I saw that her complexion was fine just now. Shen Mingqing also moved forward.

"Our old lady can't open it anymore for a long time, and when Aunt Shen fell ill, our old lady also let us prepare for our old lady's funeral.

Our lady, on the other hand, sulked a little, but only a little, a little!

Our old lady said that it was okay for the old lady to give office, saying that our master had been outside for ten years, and the old lady had stepped down this time, and the next one would be good for our master to make an errand in the sixth department. ”

Fu Wanniang said, laughed, and sat up straight.

"Yes. Then have you heard that Lord Qin recommended my father to take over as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Shen Mingqing also sat up straight.

"What about Tobe?" Fu Wanniang was surprised.

"I just want to take the household and put it in the hands of the prince."

"What does the emperor mean?" Fu Wanniang said with concern.

"It seems that the emperor should have said nothing.

It's yesterday's incident, as soon as my father went back, he asked me to hurry into the palace to ask Niangniang to see Niangniang, and said that Niangniang told the emperor that it was not appropriate for him to be transferred to the Ministry of Rites.

I went out to the second gate, and I heard from the little maid that the Ming book was scattered and went to Prince Rui's mansion first, and I must have gone to find my sister-in-law. Alas. Shen Mingqing frowned slightly.

"The last time you told your mother about the court, didn't you say that your mother lost her temper? And what about this time? Fu Wanniang frowned.

"Well, I went, but I didn't say a word.

First, Niangniang was most tired of our family taking the emperor's door from her, and it was useless to say it. Also,"

Shen Mingqing paused and lowered his voice, "My second uncle's matter, my mother is very angry, saying that the second uncle is innocent, and my mother-in-law should not push the second uncle to die because the second uncle was not born to her."

Think about it, although Niangniang is also surnamed Shen, with our family, the three clothes have gone out, my wife is so unreasonable and only talks about intimacy, what will Niangniang think? Alas. ”

Shen Mingqing let out a long sigh, "When I first heard about the assassination of the prince, I mentioned it in my heart, and I felt that I was afraid that it would be inseparable from our family, but I didn't know until the second uncle was escorted away, and I didn't know ......."

"It's not something you can talk about, it's not your fault, don't think about it." Fu Wanniang reached out and pressed it on Shen Mingqing's hand.

"Can't stop thinking about it. Niangniang loves to talk to the second aunt, and summons the second aunt into the palace three or four times, and summons the aunt once or twice.

When Ah Niang and her wife entered the palace to talk as children, Niang Niang often said that the second uncle was capable and understood, so that my father had something to discuss with the second uncle.

Now, the wife pushes the second uncle out to die, what will the mother think?

I can't even think about it! Shen Mingqing pounded the kang table at once.

"There's no way around it anymore. Then don't think about it, what else can you do? Fu Wanniang moved over and hugged Shen Mingqing.

Shen Mingqing leaned on Fu Wanniang, and it took a while to straighten up, and choked up, "I'm fine." ”

"Didn't you often say that it wasn't your father who was in charge of the household, it was your second uncle, and now, your second uncle is gone, and it's good for your father to go to the Ministry of Rites. No matter what, the Ministry of Rites is not like the Ministry of Household Officials. If you can't control it, nothing big will happen. Fu Wanniang sat back and sighed.

"If only my father had this self-knowledge, and there is a book." Shen Mingqing smiled bitterly.

Fu Wanniang was silent for a while, leaned forward, looked at Shen Mingqing and said, "I heard that your father knelt at the door of Prince Rui's mansion that day, and I didn't sleep all night, what are your plans?" ”

"I don't know." Shen Mingqing's tears fell, "It's already an extremely difficult thing, but," Shen Mingqing looked at Fu Wanniang, "Now you have to do your best, don't you?" ”

"Ugh." Fu Wanniang let out a long sigh.

The two faced each other, silent for a long time, Fu Wanniang asked in a low voice, "What about Niangniang?" Can you see something? ”

Shen Mingqing shook his head and sighed heavily, "The second uncle died in the case, and what about the eunuchs, what can Niang Niang say?" What can there be? I didn't dare to say a word, not even a word closer to it. ”

"This matter of the son of the world is really stupid!" Fu Wanniang clenched her fists and slammed the kang table.

Shen Mingqing's face was pale and he didn't speak.
