Chapter 156: Remembering the Family Tree
It's the middle of May, and for most of the month, the front dynasty and the harem have been quite calm, and the harem concubines and princes are busy with the Empress Dowager Ciyi's disobedience, and they haven't paid too much attention to the things on the side.
The scene that happened in Kunning Palace earlier has been forgotten, at least Concubine De and Concubine Xian don't think about it anymore.
And Concubine Mu and Concubine Rong, after hearing the news that Lingzhi, the palace maid of Chunxi Palace, died of a sudden illness, they just laughed at it. What should be done has been done, the effect that should have been gradually presented, and the rest is only to wait for it to continue to ferment and expand, and what do you care about it?
So they also continued to be busy with the removal of clothes.
"Li" cloud: "Sacrifice in the old period, rite also; Expect to get rid of mourning, and the way is also. ”。
In addition to serving the declining people, the removal of the service at the end of a year is also the way to be, except for the harem concubines and princes, it is a big deal, they have been filial piety for the Empress Dowager Ciyi for a year, and May 18 is the day of the removal of the service.
Before that, there are still a series of rituals and rituals to do, in fact, since the beginning of May, these concubines and princes have been busy.
The Shen family is also paying attention to the matter of the prince's removal from the service, but what they care about is not the matter itself, but speculating on the situation that may arise after the removal of the service, so as to deal with it in advance.
The removal of the concubines and the prince means that the marriage of the princes can be put on the agenda, and the marriage of the three princes is the most urgent, not to mention for the time being, which is related to the Shen family, that is, the five princes have always been interested in Shen Ning, I don't know if the five princes will have more actions after the removal of the clothes.
All of the above are within the scope of Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing's thinking, and they also feel a little worried about the next situation.
Now the trend of three adult princes has been formed. Each of them has its own supporters and forces, and it is really very difficult for the Twelve Princes to ascend to that position.
Fortunately and unfortunately, the Twelve Princes are still young, and their mother family has no power, and in the eyes of many court officials, he is not even qualified to compete for the throne. This also invisibly facilitated the Shen family's actions, and facilitated the Shen family's strategy of keeping their eyes on the ground.
Since meeting Ying Nantu at Tianning Temple. Shen Ning has never gone out, he goes to Jianhuatang every day as usual, goes to Mingxuan to greet Shen Yu's family, goes to Shen Zejing's study to listen to Shen Zejing talk about the affairs of the court, listens to the second brother Shen Yuhong talk about the things in the flow of things, and listens to the sisters talk about new things. Life went by to the fullest.
The royal family still did not hold the Flower Dynasty Festival this year, because the eldest princess Shuhe had been in poor health, and the concubines of the harem were busy removing their clothes. No one came out to take charge of the affairs of the Flower Dynasty Festival.
The suspension of the Flower Dynasty Festival disappointed some of the girls of the ambitious Jingzhao officials, who had learned outstanding talents such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but could not perform in front of the royal family, which was quite a bit of a pearl and dust.
If you learn the art of grace, you can't make the most of it with the emperor's family. No wonder these girls are so disappointed.
There is no need to participate in the Flower Dynasty Festival, nor do you need to participate in those useless talent competitions, and the girl of the Shen family is still very happy about this.
The unique teaching content of the Shen Family Women's School. As a result, these girls have greatly increased their knowledge and vision, and they have a deeper understanding of their own talents and talents.
Apply. They learn these skills in order to be able to settle down in the future, not to compete in the flower festival, and this kind of consciousness is shared by these girls, and it can also be said that these girls are progressing.
Among them, Shen Mi's change is the most obvious, she was originally introverted and shy. Now it has become much more lively, thanks to Shen Zeyuan's dedicated teaching. Since Shen Mi showed her talent in mathematics and accounts, Shen Zeyuan has given her more internship tutorials, so that she can get in touch with real ledgers and specific business affairs.
For this reason, Shen Zeyuan also asked Shen Mi to disguise himself as a boy and went to Longjingzhai to contact the details. Of course, there are not many times like this, only once or twice a month, such a thing, of course, is hidden from Aunt Li, and Shen Mi also knows that if Aunt Li knew about this matter, she would definitely strongly oppose it.
Shen Mi's contact with business affairs naturally couldn't hide from Yan Shang, who was following Shen Zeyuan, although he didn't know why the elders of the Shen family would let a little girl like Shen Mi contact these business affairs, but as Shen Mi's cousin, his feelings were complicated.
At the beginning, he objected to this matter, thinking that it would damage Shen Mi's reputation, but Shen Zeyuan told him that Shen Mi's talent was extraordinary, and it would be a pity if he didn't focus on cultivating; Later, Shen Mi's performance impressed Yan Shang, and he didn't mention anything against it, but secretly gave Shen Mi a lot of advice and help.
Many of the masters in Jianhuatang have changed, for example, Fan Lao of Jinshitang has resigned at the beginning of this year, after all, he is old and just wants to tease his grandson at home, in fact, he can teach the little girls in the Shen family for a year, it is also for the sake of Shen Huashan's face, it is not easy.
The fat lady of Tianyi Pavilion, who taught these little girls how to match clothes and accessories, became the shopkeeper because of her promotion, and it was Liu Niangzi of Tianyi Pavilion who succeeded her in continuing her class, and she was also a kind person, and the little girls of the Shen family also liked her.
On this day, Shen Zejing took a break and went to Jianhua Hall to teach, for the progress of these little girls, Shen Zejing, as a teacher, also had a deep understanding, and felt gratified and felt a great responsibility, these little girls gradually grew up, and their teaching and placement became more urgent.
Although the Shen family puts most of their energy and resources on men, Shen Huashan and Shen Zejing will not ignore the influence of these little girls, otherwise they would not pay so much attention to the affairs of Jianhuatang.
"Yao'er, memorize the genealogy of the Zhou family." Shen Zejing clicked Shen Yao's name and began to assess their memorization of the family tree.
For more than a year, this assessment Shen Zejing has been conducted from time to time, because it is so important that they must be remembered at all times.
"The Zhou family is from the Runan Zhou family, but it is not a branch; The ancestors of the Zhou family moved from Runan to Lujiang County, Jiangnan Province when Taizong, and their descendants followed the fourth generation of Dayong Emperor Chengqian Emperor to start their careers, and now they have a history of more than 100 years, and they are called Lujiang Zhou; Zhou Junshan, the grandfather of the Zhou family. married the daughter of the Ding family of Lujiang, gave birth to a son Zhou Yangxu, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, Zhou Yangzhao, Lujiang County Order, Zhou Yangtao, gave birth to a daughter Zhou Yan, and a harem concubine...... Zhou Yangxu, gave birth to sons Zhou Xueli and Zhou Xiyi......"
Shen Yao brought together the genealogy of the Zhou family that he remembered, marrying a wife, giving birth to children, giving birth to daughters, and in-laws. They all said it clearly and clearly, and Shen Zejing nodded when he heard it. These genealogies are complicated, and it is difficult for these little girls.
"Jia'er, tell me about the genealogy of the Zhang family." Shen Zejing is still continuing to test the family tree, this time he named Shen Jia, Shen Jia has an extraordinary memory. Of course, there is no problem, and it has also been appreciated by Shen Zejing.
After studying what these girls had learned, Shen Zejing said, "The reason I asked you to memorize the family tree is because the family tree is very important. Through the family tree. You can know the origin and changes of a family. It is said that lineage, order, identification of relatives and relatives, respect for ancestors, and harmony of the clan are all secondary; More importantly, through genealogy, we can know the intricate and intertwined forces of a family, and we can know which family is related to which family, which family is old with which family, to what extent, and to what extent, and this is what I am about to teach: the connection between relatives and marriages. ”
In Jianhua Hall, the little girls looked solemn and listened carefully to Shen Zejing's explanation. Listen to the content that they won't be able to grasp for a while.
These contents will have to wait until they become housekeepers. It is not until they are exposed to communication that they will really experience it and use it.
After class, several little girls went to Shenning's Qingzhuju together, talking and laughing, which made Qingzhuju much more lively.
Since the establishment of Jianhua Hall. These little girls have more time in contact, and they know more about each other's personality and character, and they often meet for tea, embroidery, and discussion of classes after class, and their feelings are getting deeper and deeper.
"The content that my uncle explained today is very difficult, it has taken more than a year to memorize the family tree, and now I have to add the old relationship between the in-laws behind the family tree, I don't know when I will be able to memorize it." As soon as Shen Yao sat down, she began to say that she had inherited Shen Hu's fast words.
"Yes, I can't let my aunt and maids know, it's really hard work." Shen Wan, who was not very old, also echoed, and muttered a few other words, nothing more than saying that it was difficult and hard.
Shen Ning listened to the discussion of these sisters, and didn't care, smiled and told Chun Shi to pour tea for everyone, and then said: "Family tree is important, my father has said it, we have to be serious." ”
Shen Ning knew that Professor Shen Zejing had already taught the children of the Shen family these contents, and the teaching was more in-depth and more complex, and he took the genealogy of each court official to explain them one by one.
Now Shen Zejing also teaches these contents to the girls, although it is much more superficial, but it also shows how important these contents are. Only when the family and the male and the married daughter agree with the direction and beliefs will the family and the in-laws go further.
Shen Ning has long experienced this, this is a win-win situation, and of course I hope that these sisters will also know and pay attention to it.
Shen Mi, Shen Mei and others also agreed, since the class this year, they all know how important the content of Professor Shen Jia is, so even if they can't understand the content at present, they all keep it in their minds and keep it for future use.
Listening to the chatter of his sisters, and the expressions on their faces, whether firm or thoughtful, Shen Ning smiled.
These expressions, in the past year, Shen Ning has also seen many times, every time these expressions appear, these sisters' hearts must be more stable and thick, perhaps, the girl who went out of the Shen family will be like the girl from her grandfather's family in the future, when she talks about it, she will nod her head and praise it.
Thinking of this, Shen Ning couldn't help but admire his grandfather's vision and mind again, and set up Jianhua Hall, what a wise and long-term decision.
