Sheng Mingzhu was silent on the side, now that her father is marrying a wife, she can't control her head.

"Mother forgot, although Wan Zheng is sick, I have not separated from her. How can a man who has a wife stop marrying again? Sheng Qian stood up from his position, afraid that he would have a dispute with Old Taijun Song if he continued to talk more, so he was about to leave, "Father, it's getting late, there will be an assessment in the academy in a few days, and there are still many things that have not been explained to Lingzhu, so I will go back first." ”

Old Man Sheng nodded and did not stop him.

"The matter of marriage is the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker."

Mrs. Song said, "Wan Zheng is already seriously ill, and I am afraid that she will not be gone soon." She entrusted me to find you a good one, and as your biological mother, I can't watch you have no owner. ”

Sheng Qian turned his head and looked back at Old Taijun Song, his eyes were obscure, "She is your niece." He never figured out what kind of person his mother was, he used to think that she valued Song Wanzheng - but now he can't see through it.

After that, he hurriedly left the house, Sheng Mingzhu said goodbye to Sheng Laoguo, and hurriedly followed Sheng Qian.

The two did not leave the house, but went to the small Buddha hall in the house.

Walking all the way to the depths, the Shengguo Mansion is the Guogong Mansion after all, there are rockeries and strange rocks everywhere, and there is nothing desolate. When I went to the small Buddha hall, I saw a little bit of civil engineering. Zhou was picking up Buddha beans outside, and when he saw Sheng Qian coming, he didn't react for a while, and after a long while, he was shocked to report to the Song family in the house.

Sheng Qian's heart was pricked by a needle, but he didn't go in when he got to the door of the small Buddha hall, Sheng Mingzhu looked at him from the side, and she hadn't seen her mother for almost a year. Zhou, who had just gone in to report, appeared at the door again, "Master, come on." ”

There is a strong smell of sandalwood in the small Buddha hall, Sheng Qian looked to the side, and it was all sandalwood Buddha beads that had been strung up, and they were all from afar. Is she doing all these days?

"Why did you think you came to see me today?" Song stood in front, his originally slightly blessed face was thinned, and the whole person looked a little slender. Sheng Qian looked at her, time will slowly cover up the feelings that people once put in their hearts, but he used to treat her as a sister.

"I'll get you out of here in a few days."

Song looked at him suspiciously, "Why?" ”

Zhou pulled her, no matter why the old man wanted to send them away, if he could go, he would leave quickly. Now she can survive the days of this small Buddha hall, but this lady's body is getting weaker and weaker, and I don't know how long she can survive-

Sheng Qian didn't speak, Song thought for a while, and then said, "The old lady wants to marry your stepfamily?" ”

Sheng Qian still didn't speak, but the Song family had already identified this answer in his heart. She knows very well what kind of person Mrs. Song is, she can't say likes and dislikes, she just values everything in the Sheng family more than anything else, and she is used to the feeling of holding everything in her hands. Song thought for a moment, "If the old lady wants to marry your stepfamily, I am indeed in her way, but I don't want to leave the house." ”

"There is no hope for a woman to live, it is better to die clean."

Sheng Mingzhu stood behind him and did not speak. She is also not suitable to speak, after all, no matter what reason the Song family has harmed her mother, and now she does not mention the matter of revenge, she can't be generous enough to lend a helping hand to her. Only looking at the two of them from a distance, the Song family also looked at Sheng Mingzhu.

"Mingzhu doesn't like me, and Liu doesn't like me either. Brother Qian, don't ruin your current family because of those feelings when you were a child. ”

Song said.

Sheng Qian looked back at his daughter, and then looked back at the Song family, he thought a lot, "Sister Wanzheng, maybe it was me who was wrong in the past." I thought a lot, before you saved my mother, and protected me since I was a child, until you passed the year of marriage for various reasons, I obeyed my mother's words to marry you, but never gave your husband's care. ”

"My fault."

Song's eyes were slightly red, and Sheng Qian said again, "The big mistake has been made, and I can't make up for anything." Her young years were spent in the deep courtyard, "Go outside and take a look, maybe there will be a better scenery, if it turns into a pile of dry bones, do you still want to stay in the Sheng family?" ”

Song hung his head and didn't speak for a long time.

——

As a housemother, the Song family has lost Sheng Qian's trust and has no children.

Originally, Mrs. Song didn't take the third room in her eyes, but now that the third son has been promoted to Shangshu, it is not good that the backyard is always hanging. The Song family can't have children, which means that there is no son-in-law in the third room, not to mention that there is no son-in-law and no successor in the future. Speaking of the third room now, more and more people are in front of them, and she, as a mother, can't watch her son have no one in the backyard.

The Song family can't be the main mother, so it's a little in the way. After all, Mrs. Song is also a woman, Song Wanzheng is her niece, and she wasted a lot of effort when she made this decision - she has two sons, and the eldest son can't see anything capable here, and the brother Lin who gave birth to is still young and can't see anything.

Song Yu is a noble daughter carefully raised by the Song family, and among the sons and daughters of the Song family, which one is not a stunning talent in Beijing. This is the mind of Mrs. Song, and she is also thinking about Sheng Qian's reputation - she originally sent Ni Zhen'er to get some medicine to corrupt the body in Song's food every day, so that she would not be too painful when she died.

Song is her niece in the end, and if she can live, she won't want to let her live. It's just that Sheng Qian is already a scholar now, if he marries again, if someone else finds out that the Song family is still alive, sue him for stopping his wife and remarrying, it will inevitably be another trouble at that time. It's just that when Ni Zhen'er went again the next day, the small Buddha hall of the Song family was already empty, and no one could be found.

——

It didn't take long for the news of Song's death to spread.

Sheng Qian's original wife is the Song family, and many people in Beijing know that when he first returned to the house, the old lady Song also reported that the Song family was infected with a bad disease, and there were some sores on his face, so he couldn't go out to meet guests. It was the news of this lady that came from Jingzhong Shaoyi, and it was not until today that she died suddenly, and everyone remembered the original wife of Lord Shangshu today.

There are also many officials who have moved their minds. Sheng Qian has just passed the year of establishment, and he is not very old, and now he is originally married, and there are only two girls in the house, so it is not a loss to marry the daughter of the family as a stepfamily. Most high-ranking officials think so, not to mention some low-ranking officials.

In the past few days, the number of people visiting Shangshu Mansion has doubled compared with before, and most of them are housewives with their daughters who are suitable for marriage. Because there is no housewife in the house, Yun Niang, as a concubine, is not easy to handle the attitude of these women.

There are even some princes and nobles who come with their daughters, and those who come to the door today are the mothers of the Zhao family and the daughters of the Zhao family. The ancestors of the Zhao family were also born in the military, and they were also the founding heroes of the Great Wei Dynasty.

When the daughter of the Zhao family was born, she was named the county lord because of her father's military exploits, but when she was young, her eyes were too high, and she was too rude, and she has not married until she is twenty-five years old. If you can't be high, you can't be low, and you don't want to marry some older people as your stepfamily, and a good wealthy lady has become a big problem in the family.

In the past few days, Mrs. Zhao heard about the idle affairs in Beijing, and only then did she learn that the wife of the lord of Shangshu Mansion had gone, and she happened to come over a few days ago to take a look, and the door of Shangshu Mansion was hung with white silk, which can be regarded as a sure thing. I had some plans in my heart, and I asked Yinzi to draw a portrait of Sheng Qian to show her daughter.

Sure enough, the daughter who had been biting and not letting go suddenly moved, although she was still a little dissatisfied with him being a widower.

As soon as the concubine of the Zhao family walked into the hall, she looked back and forth. Song is Sheng Mingzhu's nominal mother, and others came to visit her in such a name, and she naturally wanted to receive her as a junior, so she said a lot of things to Mrs. Zhao's daughter-in-law.

The concubine of the Zhao family got the idea of marrying in the future, but she picked her nose at the concubine and concubine in front of her. That Sheng Shangshu looks like a good family background, at her age, if she finds such a husband, it can also be said that it is a good home, and the only dissatisfaction is the concubine in his house.

Thinking that he is going to marry in the future, his posture is high, and there are many difficulties in his words, so that it doesn't look like he came to other people's houses as a guest, but as if he came to find fault. Yun Niang changed the tea for her for the third time, but when she saw that she was embarrassed again, she didn't wait anymore, and slapped the tea on the table, "If Miss Zhao thinks that the tea is not very suitable for you, please go back, and the hot tea in Zhao's Mansion is more suitable for your taste." ”

Then Miss Zhao frowned, "You are just a concubine, which concubine dares to make such a mistake to the guests of the main family?" If you are spoiled, beware of me telling Shanda. ”

However, the raw guests who just met were like the housewife of the Sheng family. The mother and daughter of the Zhao family are simple-minded, and they are not as good as the low-level officials who came to inquire a few days ago-

In the past few days, he has encountered many such things, and Sheng Mingzhu has been too lazy to deal with it from the beginning to now. In addition, the Zhao family had no close contact with the Sheng family in the past, and his father was also a lonely minister, so there was no need to have a good relationship with other courtiers, "Then there is no reason for any guest to go to the Lord's house to point fingers, golden branches, send guests." Tell the porter that the person surnamed Zhao will not have to welcome people again in the future. ”

Miss Zhao immediately stood up from her chair, "You are so rude and willful, you really look like your master, not like a noble girl, but like a folk shrew." ”

Sheng Mingzhu smiled, "Yes, it's really not good to be rude." When I first entered Beijing, I was advised by the police, don't be rude in the future, and restrain your temperament, otherwise it will be bad for the young lady of the Zhao family, who will not be able to marry until she is twenty-five years old, and she will be as rude as a folk shrew. ”

Miss Zhao has a bad temper, and she was about to have a seizure by such a stalk, and Jin Zhi had already brought someone to see off the guests.

No matter how brutal it is, he is tall after all. Mrs. Zhao and Miss Zhao couldn't do the kind of thing that tore apart with others and ruined their faces, so they finally glared at Sheng Mingzhu and left.

Yun Niang's head is quite a headache, there are a lot of people who have come to the house recently, and there is no one in the house, and this is the most ugly one out of the house. She is already a concubine, if the attitude of the guest is like this, she is still like today, and Huang's mother next to her came over and rubbed her forehead for her, "The news that Mrs. has gone in the past few days has spread, and it was simple in the old man's room in the past, and it is estimated that there will be many people who will be tempted in the future." ”

Yun Niang's hand moved slightly, she knew that Sheng Qian was sad, after all, not to mention the relationship between husband and wife, he and the Song family grew up since childhood. But she really has no relationship with the Song family, and now that she has passed away, although she also has some feelings in her heart, she is more relieved - she knows Sheng Qian's feelings for her, and she also knows that if her identity is mentioned as the main room, she will be criticized, but she still has some dreams.

Not only for himself, but also for his daughter.
