Chapter 4 Going Out (Asking for Recommendations and Collections)
It turns out that Ming Jue has always known these things!
Since he knew, she wouldn't hide it from him anymore.
"When the Marquis of Yongding returns to Beijing in a few days, I will take the marriage left by my father and mother when he was alive and go to make it clear to the Marquis that we will withdraw from the marriage. This marriage must be withdrawn. ”
It's best if my sister can think like this.
It's just that the woman comes forward to withdraw from the marriage, which has an impact on the woman's future marriage and reputation!
He didn't want his sister to be married in the future.
For the sake of his sister's lifelong events, it is necessary for him to persuade her.
"Sister, your life's major events are related to your life, you still have to think about it carefully. Don't take your sister's life for the sake of your brother and this dilapidated Sheng family mansion. ”
If you don't get married, what else can you do?
Could it be that if you really want to marry into the Yongding Marquis Mansion, you will not only be insulted by Shi Quan, but also by Mrs. Yongding Hou?
She didn't want to live like this, she didn't want to live like this at all.
This kind of life is no different from what she is now.
"Don't persuade me anymore! I've figured out what to do, and I have my own idea in my mind. ”
"But sister, when your parents were alive, they set the marriage of the Yongding Hou Mansion for you, just hoping that my sister would marry into the Hou Mansion and live happily for a lifetime, and there was someone who could be entrusted for life. If you divorce the Hou Mansion like this, I am afraid that you will go against the wishes of your parents. Ming Jue said intermittently.
In his heart, he was thinking about his sister and Na Shiquan, and he would get married as soon as possible.
But he wanted Shi Quan to take the initiative to bring up the matter, not his sister.
My sister brought up this matter, but I was afraid that my sister's reputation in this life would be ruined.
"Mingjue, my sister told you something. My marriage contract with Shi Quan was only made by my parents at the time. Now that the parents are gone, this marriage can be withdrawn. ”
"Now that the Marquis of Yongding is becoming more and more prosperous, even if I get married, can I sit on the wife of the main family? Rather than being angry with his mother-in-law and husband-in-law, this marriage contract might as well be withdrawn. ”
Sheng Mingyu said this, and Mingjue still understood a little.
Now the entire Sheng family still needs her sister to preside over the overall situation, and this marriage is still a good retreat, a good retreat.
After Mingjue left, Sheng Mingyu went to the study, she vaguely remembered that her mother said when she was alive that she had hidden a treasure map in the crack of the wall of the study.
It is a treasure map of the previous dynasty.
It was passed on to her grandmother, who passed it on to her mother, who brought the Sheng family.
Worried that this treasure map would be coveted by the gangsters, her mother hid it in the crack of the wall of the study.
But after all these years, no one has taken care of this study, and it is already dense with cobwebs.
In the study, there are many books, and some of them are long-lost ancient books.
The price of these ancient books on the market is worth hundreds of taels.
The reason why Duchess Sheng Guo wants to go to the Sheng family's mansion more is nothing more than to get these ancient books handed down from their ancestors.
But as long as she is there for a day, the idea of the Duchess of Sheng Guo will not be implemented for a day.
After rummaging in the study for a while with an oil lamp, Sheng Mingyu buckled many cracks in the wall, but never found the treasure map hidden in the cracks in the wall.
Instead, she found a few ancient books that were hidden in the cracks of the wall, and she opened them and looked at them, all of which were hand-copied Taoist collections, a copy of "Taishang Xuanmiao Sutra", and a "Taishang Qingming Sutra".
Today's officials are obsessed with cultivation and are bent on immortality, and maybe they have two hand-copied scriptures that can help them in the future.
Sheng Mingyu brought the two scriptures back to his room, and after reading them carefully, he found that these two scriptures were both scriptures copied by Zhang Tianshi, a real person who had attained the Tao in the previous dynasty, and Zhang Tianshi copied them with blood.
Zhang Tianshi was a true person of the previous dynasty, who lived in seclusion in Zhongnan Mountain all the year round, and I heard that he lived for more than 200 years.
Under a pine and cypress tree at the foot of Zhongnan Mountain, the feather becomes an immortal. Outsiders spread the word to him like a god, but Sheng Mingyu read the scriptures he copied by hand with blood, and he was just a long-lived cultivator.
is not as divine as the folk legend, Zhang Tianshi is a Da Luo Jin Immortal who can kill demons and eliminate demons.
It is not written in the scriptures of slaying demons and demons, but it is written about alchemy.
Sheng Mingyu could read and write, and she thought that if she could copy some of the words in this scripture and sell them to those cultivators who were obsessed with Taoism, she might be able to make some money.
After all, Zhang Tianshi's alchemy is now the only one for her.
Three days later, Sheng Mingyu's body was completely well.
Somehow, since her soul arrived in this body, no matter what kind of injuries she suffered, it always healed very quickly.
Today, I accompanied Sheng Mingyu out with peace of mind to sell the silk handkerchiefs and other embroideries embroidered by Sheng Mingyu a few days ago.
Sitting in the carriage, Anxin picked up a pair of tiger head shoes made by Sheng Mingyu, and couldn't help but admire.
"The girl's craftsmanship is getting better and better, and the tiger head shoes are getting better and better. It's just a pity that the girl can't keep it. ”
"It doesn't matter, if we buy these tiger head shoes, we can also buy some silk threads and come back and make something else."
They came to the embroidery village on Danyang Street today to sell embroidery, and Sheng Mingyu's grandfather's Xu family was also on this street.
The Xu family is a family with military merits, although in this dynasty, the status of military attaches is not as good as that of civilian officials, but the power of the Xu family is also very great.
Now the Xu family is in charge of Sheng Mingyu's uncle Xu Dingyuan.
However, Xu Dingyuan, and her mother Xu, are not siblings of the same mother, Xu Dingyuan was born to a concubine, and her mother was born to an old lady of the Xu family.
Because there is no direct blood relationship, Xu Dingyuan rarely cares about their sister and brother.
When he sold a basket of embroidery, he exchanged it for ten taels of silver.
Sheng Mingyu didn't dare to spend these ten taels of silver, but even if he went to the street, he still had to buy something.
Let Anxin guard the silk cloth purchased in the embroidery village in the carriage, Sheng Mingyu got out of the carriage and went to the restaurant to buy two catties of sauce elbows and some side dishes.
Because of lack of money, Ming Jue and her rarely go to the restaurant.
Looking at Ming Jue's body, which was thinner than his peers, Sheng Mingyu wanted to buy some meat and go back to Ming Jue to eat and make up for it.
After buying the sauce elbow, Sheng Mingyu found that his carriage was gone.
On the way to find the carriage, Sheng Mingyu went to Puji Temple, which was not far from Danyang Street.
The Dizang Pavilion in Puji Temple also provides for her parents' spiritual seat, and she bought a few handfuls of incense with half a hanging money in front of the temple gate, preparing to enter Puji Temple to worship her parents.
Today is not the temple fair of Puji Temple, and there are few people outside the temple gate.
But not far from the Puji Temple, I saw a large group of people gathered there, as if they were watching something lively.
No matter what time or dynasty, what ordinary people like to do on the street most is to watch the excitement and join in the fun.
There are many people around, which proves that the liveliness there is the best.
Even if she went to the street, she simply went over to see what was going on.
Approaching the lively scene, I only heard a gentle and complaining voice. The voice was familiar, like someone she knew.
When I got closer, it was the eldest girl of the Xu family, Xu Min.
At the moment, he was sitting on the ground crying into tears, a man and a woman stood beside him, the woman was wearing a green shirt, combing a falling horse bun, and wearing the most fashionable accessories in her hair.
Xu Min is the eldest daughter of Uncle Xu, married to the second son of the Shouchun Bo family, and Xu Min is the person with whom the Xu family has the best relationship with her
When her parents died, among the people who came to mourn from Xu Fu, only Xu Min secretly stuffed her with a silver ticket of fifty taels and comforted her, not to be overwhelmed by grief, to cheer up.
Only when she cheers up, the Sheng family's mansion will not be taken away by others.
When Ming Jue was seriously ill, she went to Xu's Mansion to ask for help from several uncles, and before she could enter Xu's Mansion, the maid-in-law who was waiting in Xu's Mansion drove her out.
When she returned to the house, Xu Min, who was already married at that time, got the news and rushed to help her hire a doctor and give her silver.
Those people who helped him when he was in trouble, Sheng Mingyu remembered clearly.
It was then that she really saw clearly who was worth associating with and who was not.
Seeing Xu Min sitting on the ground, crying more and more sadly, Sheng Mingyu pushed away the people around him and squeezed in.
In the blink of an eye, she came behind Xu Min. However, she did not rush forward to get closer to her, but looked around.
