Chapter 088: What Did He Fancy About?
After Zheng Rong inquired from Li Su, he had already stretched his neck to look, and when Song Xiang came back, he immediately pulled her into the backyard.
"How?"
Song Xiang smiled: "What do you think?" ”
"I'll see it!"
Song Xiang sat down with a smile and continued to pick up medicine: "People and I are not a couple. ”
Hu Yan's wife in his previous life was also picked by Mrs. Hu for him, she was the young lady of the Xie family, and after Du Yuyin was picked by herself, the couple became very good.
Song Xiang didn't think that she would be sorry for anyone if she followed the general trend and was with Hu Yan, after all, rebirth was also arranged by God, and she didn't take the initiative to sabotage it, so she didn't ruin anyone's marriage.
Otherwise, if she couldn't marry anyone who had a wife in her previous life, wouldn't she only be a sister-in-law?
But after all, because the two families are too familiar, knowing that he has a wife who he likes, he doesn't want to join in the fun.
Zheng Rong felt a little pity, but she firmly believed that her daughter was right and that marriage depended on fate, so she happily decided to go with the flow.
Hu Yan turned around and went home, but someone here had already returned to Hu Mansion to reply to Mrs. Hu's words.
Mrs. Hu ate a cup of tea, watched Hu Yan come back with the medicine, and when he finished speaking, she looked at him with a smile: "How is Miss Song?" ”
"She helped out in the shop. It seems that there are quite a few people who patronize it. ”
Mrs. Hu said, "I'm asking what you think of her?" ”
Hu Yan recalled: "It's good! It's really good to work, and at first glance she is the one who will run the house. ”
Mrs. Hu nodded: "How does that girl feel about you?" ”
"I don't know. Anyway, the son was polite and not rude. Speaking of this, he said to himself: "I didn't expect her to farm, my son hasn't seen how the villagers farm." Mother, do you think it would be too presumptuous for me to say that I want to go to the countryside with Miss Song? ”
Mrs. Hu glanced at Chunniang and said, "It's a bit presumptuous. ”
Hu Yan sighed, a little disappointed, but soon drank tea, and it was all right.
Mrs. Hu thought for a while, and then said: "However, you can also try to ask Mrs. Song to see if it is appropriate to do this, if the other party finds it inconvenient, forget it." If it's convenient, I'm not opposed to you going for a walk. After all, being familiar with agriculture and mulberry will also be good for you to enter politics in Japan. ”
Hu Yan was happy: "My son thinks the same way, Mr. Guozijian always said in the past that I have enough knowledge, but I don't know the people's livelihood and economy, which will inevitably be unfavorable for the scientific expedition in Japan." - Miss Song is very generous, and she is very comfortable talking to her, and I will go to their medicine store when I go back! ”
And when he had said that, he went out rejoicing!
The words that Mrs. Hu wanted to say were swallowed in her throat, and she held her breath for a long time before turning her head to look at Chunniang: "Did he take a fancy to Miss Song, or did he take a fancy to Miss Song's family?" ……”
……
This year, the wind and rain are smooth, except for a small area of locust plague in Shudi, the Quartet is calm and peaceful in all directions. The yamen were idle, so they tightened the rule of officials, and in the past two months, several cases of official embezzlement have been discovered. Lu Zhan refused to miss every interrogation, and he was bound to seize the time to get close to government affairs.
During this time, he also wrote some articles, and he also received a lot of praise in the yamen.
At the end of the day, he looked at the confession in his hand and had some doubts, so he asked the official to go to Lu Zhengfang to get the case file, but the official came back and said that Master Lu had pressed it first.
Lu Zhan guessed that it was Lu Chongfang who took the official frame, so he personally went to the official office of Dali Temple and said his intentions.
Lu Chongfang smiled: "The mood of the prince who wants to be motivated is understood, but it is not appropriate to venture just now, I heard that others have been under the yamen for a few days, and the prince is still staying in the yamen, which is not good, and it is easy to hurt the body." ”
Lu Zhan laughed: "Is it that the lower officials are not good at academics and have caused trouble to adults?" ”
"How so?" Lu Chongfang hurriedly straightened up: "The seriousness and carefulness of the prince is admired from the bottom of my heart, but the identity of the prince is different after all, so it's better not to bother too much." ”
The emperor asked Lu Zhan to come to watch the government, which was clearly to let him go up and study, but when he came to Lu Chongfang, he couldn't work hard because of official business!
Lu Zhan sat upright for a while and came out with a fan.
After returning to the public case, he thought about it and passed Yang Xin in: "The case of Zheng Chuanyi, a wealthy man in Tongzhou, who accepted bribes from Jiang Xing, a wealthy family in Tongzhou, and corrected his brother Jiang Wang's will to seize the family property, you can go to Tongzhou to inquire about it and tell me." ”
Yang Xin got the order and went.
Lu Chongfang didn't let Lu Zhan "work too hard", but Lu Zhan had to win the emperor's trust and trust. Since the case file was not given to him, then he went to check it himself.
But Yang Xin had nothing to do before he came back, so he had to go home first.
As soon as I arrived at Yanzhao Palace, I saw Su Rui, the maid of Qiwu Palace, coming: "Shizi, the princess will go to Fuyun Temple tomorrow to offer incense, please go with Shizi when she arrives." ”
Lu Zhan thought about it, and when he went to the Yamen, Lu Chongfang still had to stop him, so he should come down.
The incense had to be entered early, and Lu Zhan got up to freshen up at dawn, and waited in the end door.
The mother and son were already ready, and after a while, Princess Jin also came out, with only Yingniang and two maids and eunuchs by her side.
Before going up, she glanced at Lu Zhan up and down, reached out to help him brush his clothes, and then went up.
Fuyun Temple is a nunnery, which was first used to place the concubines in the palace in the previous dynasty, and then changed the dynasty, and there were officials and dependents who became monks here, and it gradually became an ordinary nunnery.
Princess Jin believes in Buddhism, often practices here to live, and also gave Lu Zhan when he was a child in Fuyun Temple a name charm, Lu Zhan also has to call the temple Guanyin Bodhisattva godmother.
After entering the temple to worship the Buddha, the host led them to the meditation room, and when the tea was served, Lu Zhan saw the futon that had been laid out and said, "Could it be that there are still guests?" ”
Princess Jin said: "Last time I went to a banquet at Shen's house, I made an appointment with Mrs. Shen to come to Fuyun Temple to relax, and she would bring her concubine over." ”
As he was talking, the eunuch came in and said, "Princess, Mrs. Shen has arrived first, and she has just chanted the scriptures in the Buddhist hall in the east, and she has come over now." ”
Princess Jin nodded and said to Lu Zhan: "You go to the east Buddhist hall and pick out a few Buddhist scriptures for me." ”
Lu Zhanxin said that the name of the Shen family has often been heard recently, and he said yes in his mouth and went out.
I met a graceful lady under the door, and I recognized it as Shen Yijun's wife, and when she saw the salute, she also returned the salute.
Yang Xin waited under the door, and when he saw him come out, he took out the file and gave it to him, and said: "It is indeed Jiang Wang's wife who sued Shuntianfu in Tongzhou, this woman only has a five-year-old son, has thousands of acres of fertile land, and has five shops.
Among them, there is a restaurant, two gold and silver shops, the profit is very rich, and there are tens of thousands of taels of silver, part of the family wealth is from the ancestral industry, but most of it is earned by Jiang Wang when he was alive.
Jiang Wang's previous wife only gave birth to a daughter and was already married. The house-filler, who was married after her daughter got married, gave birth to an only son at the age of forty.
Jiang Xing is his only younger brother, and he is also in business, but his family property is far inferior to that of his brother. But in the early years, after Jiang Wang lost his wife, he ran out to buy and sell, and once put his daughter in Jiang Xing's house for foster care.
"Now, Jiang Xing is insisting on making a will in the name of raising a daughter for Jiang Wang in the past, and he is writing it to pass on eighty percent of the family property to himself."
