Chapter 740: Shen Zhen
How did Shi Nian not know? He also thought of this, so he couldn't make up his mind for a long time.
He was restless in his heart, he had never dealt with the affairs of the women in the family, and his eyes were even darker at this time, he turned around and patted Shi Qingqian on the shoulder: "Xiao Qi, you know that my brother has never known how to deal with this, I know that you have been smart and clever since you were a child, can you come up with ideas for your brother?" ”
"Brother said this, my sister won't take a concubine or marry a wife...... Shi Qingqian looked embarrassed, and couldn't bear to let her brother fall into this difficult situation, her eyes rolled around, and said, "Brother urged me, I can only come up with three ways to ......"
"Sister, say it quickly!" Shi Nian's eyes lit up, and she confidently looked forward to the solution she came up with.
Shi Qingqian took a step back slightly, half-hung his head and said, "The first thing is that my brother simply forgot about the four girls of the Cen family. There are people who are sad in the big house, and there are even more people who are weak and uncompetitive, and my brother can still be a bodhisattva to save the world? ”
Hearing this, Shi Nian couldn't help but show a disappointed look on his face, "How can this be done?" Not to mention that I have to try my best to take care of this matter when I see it, even with the talent of Miss Cen Si, I can't let her be buried like this. ”
"Then the second one, it is the elder brother who goes to fight with the second lady to marry the fourth sister of the Cen family," Shi Qingqian knew that his brother was not a cold-eyed bystander, and said, "It's just that my brother must be cautious, so my brother's future is that he has calculated narrowly for himself." The Cen family treats the fourth sister Cen badly, and the reputation of the fourth sister Cen Xiaoniang's biological mother is even more unclean, I am afraid that there will be no power of the Cen family to help her in the future, if the fourth sister Cen is his wife, his brother's reputation will also plummet. ”
Again, this is the truth.
How important was fame to the ancients? For ancient women, reputation was a more important thing. No matter whether the four girls are good or bad, having a notorious little lady can make her unable to hold her head up for the rest of her life.
Although it is said that the second lady is a small family ethos, it may not have been taken into account at this level. If the eldest brother of the Qingjun family really marries such a woman with a bad statement as his wife, it will inevitably be affected, and even the concubine may not be able to choose the one he likes in the future.
Shi Qingqian also dared to say this because his brother was more pity than liking the four girls of Na Cen.
Shi Nian stopped talking.
It makes sense, it really makes sense.
He is a scholar, not the kind of merry man who indulges in color, he is naturally a reasonable person. No matter how much I feel sorry for the four girls of the Cen family, I won't really joke about my future at will. In particular, Shi Qingqian's words woke him up and made him see more clearly.
Shi Qingqian saw Shi Nian's expression and knew that he couldn't spare his future, so he smiled a little and said, "Brother, the third way is to take a concubine." It's just that maybe the fourth girl has to suffer some grievances, and to the outside world, she said to the outside world that the fourth girl Cen is very talented and the family is not living well, so my brother accepted her. When he really wants to discuss marriage, he says that the position of the wife in the family has always been reserved for those who are really worthy...... Maybe no one will think that the elder brother is a concubine first, and maybe some people will think that the eldest brother is upright. ”
After all, it was the norm for men in the ancients to have three wives and four concubines, and as long as they did a good job externally, they would not cause too much trouble. It's just that Miss Cen Si's little mother is really tricky, has a bad reputation, and has been suffering for many years, how can she be cured in one day?
"Xiao Qi, you're right," Shi Nian finally nodded, and there was some light flickering under his eyes, "Then I'll go to my mother to plead my case!" ”
"Hey, wait brother!" Shi Qing hurriedly grabbed him, "I don't support this method, after all, Miss Cen has a little lady who has done ugly things, and it will more or less affect my brother, I think my brother should think about it again, and now I want to think about it in other ways, wouldn't it be better to include it after my brother has discussed it?" ”
"Right...... Yes, yes, yes......"
Shi Nian nodded again and again, there were too many things he had been exposed to at one time, and he didn't even feel so difficult during the scientific examination, "Xiao Qi, what do you say is the best thing to do?" ”
Shi Qingqian has only just come into contact with this matter, no matter how smart she is, it is impossible for her to come up with a perfect plan in such a short time, but the eldest brother is the most heartless in this kind of thing, and Shi Qingqian also feels a little helpless to worry about his brother's affairs like this:
"Brother, don't embarrass me, even if you find an opportunity, give me some time...... If you want to come to the Cen family to enter Beijing, I can invite the Cen family to come to the Yao'er 100-day banquet, and it is good to contact and contact again when the time comes. It's just that my brother has to figure out for himself whether the four girls of the Cen family are really suitable to be my brother's concubines," Shi Qingqian sighed and said, "I know that my brother has always been kind-hearted, so don't take a concubine because of pity." ”
Sometimes Shi Nian really wants to sigh to his sister, "Xiao Qi, I think I have read a few more years of sage books, but sometimes I am not as flustered as my sister A little girl can figure it out......"
"The authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear. I can't look at everything clearly, but it's because it's my brother's business that I can settle down and think about it. Shi Qingqian smiled at him, "Brother should hurry up and go back to the second lady's words, if yes, if there is anything wrong afterwards, my sister is willing to contribute her strength to help my brother." ”
Shi Nian patted Shi Qingqian on the shoulder gratefully, then turned around and walked towards the courtyard wall of the second room.
Seeing Shi Nian's hurried footsteps, Shi Qingqian couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
He is his own brother, it's not good to say that he is not good, but Shi Nian also has a little pedantic - no, it's not right to say that, this kind of situation is really nothing remarkable in this era, it is normal to take concubines, and it is even more understandable to look at the other party's family background and birth.
At this time, it reflected Shen Shu's goodness - Shen Shu never had such an opinion, what family background, what background, what concubine room, Shen Shu didn't even look at it. gave all his favor to Shi Qingqian alone - if she is a favored concubine, he will redouble his care, if she is down halfway, Shen Shu will also hold her hand through this life.
Thinking of this, the corners of Shi Qing's lips hooked up a smile.
I am really fortunate in three lives.
