Chapter 262: The Imperial Mansion

Shen Muqing stuffed the purse to the people in the Internal Affairs Office: "Father-in-law, don't dislike it. ”

Putting the purse into his arms, he took the opportunity to pinch it - hard, and the smile on his face was more sincere: "Mrs. Xiao, the miscellaneous family will leave." ”

"Father-in-law, go slowly!" Shen Muqing politely sent it to the door.

Turning back into the courtyard, the eldest lady was standing in the middle of the courtyard and looking around.

"Mu Qing," seeing Shen Muqing come in, the eldest lady smiled with satisfaction, "This yard is good." Not to mention anything else, just the two locust trees in front of the door, I am afraid that there will be a hundred years of prosperity - the royal gift, after all, it is different. ”

Shen Muqing smiled slightly.

The three-entry house in Nanxunfang, which was given by the emperor to Xiao Sa, is lined with green trees, with the unique seclusion and profundity of the old house. There are many old houses like this in Kyoto, but with the "Goshi" and "Minami Kaorubo", this house has become a little different.

"Now that we have the key, let's choose a nearby auspicious day and move in!" Shen Muqing helped the eldest lady to the main room, "Do you think this arrangement is good?" ”

The corners of the eldest lady's eyes were slightly wet.

This is treating her as a serious mother-in-law!

"I'm still living in the West Wing...... When the children are older, it's time for me to go back to Jinzhou! ”

Not to mention returning to Lincheng, but Jinzhou.

Young couples and old companions, such a big wife made Shen Muqing feel sad.

She smiled: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law are here, I am a little smaller here, and the white paper shop can also live in people." I counted on you to be my companion, and if I said that I was going to leave, my heart would be cold. ”

The eldest lady smiled and nodded, but did not promise whether to stay or go.

Xiao Sa didn't care about him when he was young, he passed him on to others, and when he was older, he became a high-ranking official, and followed his son to rely on him...... Shen Muqing could guess the eldest lady's thoughts.

"There is a long case of sandalwood here, a black lacquered Taishi chair here, and then a green official curtain is hung...... The east side is warm, and the second room can be used to entertain guests, and the corner room is used as a sleeping ...... You have been in the south for a long time, and you are used to sleeping in the bed, and you will be vacated to make a warm pavilion behind the eight-step bed, and when the weather is too cold, you will be crooked......" Shen Muqing pointed there, Ying couldn't help nodding, and secretly wrote it down.

The eldest lady looked at Shen Muqing with a smile and listened to her arrangement.

"Do you think that's going to work?" Shen Muqing saw that the eldest lady had been silent, and stepped forward and said with a smile, "If you are not satisfied, just say it, otherwise, you will be the one who suffers." ”

The eldest lady took Shen Muqing's hand: "I am very satisfied." You are very attentive, and my hobbies are all in mind. ”

"That's good!" Shen Muqing said with a smile, "Let's go to the west to have a look, and arrange a study room for you in the second room on the west side, and make the room a guest room!" ”

The eldest lady nodded: "It's all up to you." ”

The two of them preliminarily determined the furnishings of the house, it was already noon, and the two rushed back to Shen's house in Shihua Bridge and went to say hello to Shen Zhen first.

"The house should be good!" Shen Zhen said with a smile, "In the past, the emperor gave Chen Nan, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, to live, and I also went there, and then Chen Nan Zhishi, I didn't expect the emperor to give you a house." ”

"It's all thanks to the blessing of my father-in-law." The eldest lady smiled, "I can also live in Nanxunfang." ”

"What blessing do you want me?" Shen Zhen said with a smile, "That's Xiao Sa's ability, the house given by the emperor, looking at it all over the court, that's one of the few." ”

Shen Muqing smiled and took a black lacquered box to Shen Zhen: "The title deed of the house." ”

Even Shen Zhen is rare now: "I really didn't expect that the emperor would give you this house." ”

"No, we were shocked when we saw this title deed!" Shen Muqing smiled, "That's fine, so that I don't live there unsteadily." ”

Shen Zhen laughed.

The atmosphere in the room became relaxed.

The eldest lady smiled: "I discussed with Mu Qing to choose an auspicious day to move over these days." The in-laws are well-educated, please give this yard a name and a plaque! ”

"Move in so soon!" Shen Zhen was a little surprised, "It's better to move after the summer!" ”

He was reluctant to be lively and pink, and the lovely Ziyang.

The eldest lady can understand it when she thinks about it, thinks about it for a while, and says with a smile: "The end of July is Yueying's third birthday, and in early September, Ziyang is going to be the first birthday......"

When the child is one year old, he wants to worship his ancestors, but he can't worship the ancestors of the Xiao family in the Shen family!

This is the eldest wife's idea, and Shen Muqing wants to move out as soon as possible, but she doesn't want to intensify the contradiction - since Aunt Chen knew that Ziyang had been sealed, she fell ill, Shen Muqing and Dashe both went to see her, she lay on the bed with a plaster on her sideburns and hummed, and said that she had a hard life, but she had no hope for a son......

Shen Zhen also knew, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.

The eldest lady compared her heart to her heart and said with a smile: "We are also used to living here, I have my aunt as a companion, Mu Qing has Grandma Ren as a companion, and Yueying also likes to run in the back garden, where do you want to go." Now that the emperor has given the house, (I can't see clearly) I dislike us for relying on you to fight the autumn breeze and not leave! ”

Shen Zhen laughed: "I wish my in-laws were here to play the autumn breeze!" ”

"In that case, then we'll listen to you." The eldest lady smiled, "It's not too late to move after August 15." ”

Shen Zhen smiled and nodded: "I will also take advantage of these days to practice my hands and give you a plaque." ”

The matter was decided, everyone chatted a few more words, and Shen Zhen smiled and drove away: "Let's go to dinner." Don't hurt yourself for a windfall. ”

The eldest lady and Shen Muqing said goodbye with a smile and returned to listen to Yuxuan.

Mingxia was busy making people set the meal. After eating, Shi Jingshu came: "How is it?" What is the house like? ”

"Very good!" Shen Muqing invited Shi Jingshu to sit down, "Close to West Street, quiet in the middle of noisy, it is a place that money can't buy." ”

The eldest lady felt that they young people had something to say from young people, so after a few words, she said "tired", and asked the hosta to accompany her to rest, leaving Shen Muqing and Shi Jingshu to talk about themselves.

"Have you set a date to move?"

"I was going to move in the next few days." Shen Muqing told Shi Jingshu about the conversation between Shen Zhen and the eldest lady, "...... I'm afraid I'll have to move after August 15. ”

"It's fine." Shi Jingshu said with a smile, "Don't be so idle, accompany me to confinement before moving." I'm bolder, too. ”

"yes!" Shen Muqing responded with a smile.

Shi Jingshu's face showed hesitation: "Where is the house in Nanxunfang?" ”

"You want to ask how far it is from the Liang family, right?" Shen Muqing smiled, his expression was very calm, "Separated by two alleys - it is not far away, but it is not close." If we go to West Street, the Liang family passes through the alley where we live. ”

Shi Jingshu frowned.

"What are you worried about?" Shen Muqing said with a smile, "Our families live their own lives, is it because the Liang family is in Nanxun Fang, we have to stay away?" ”

"Aren't I afraid that Xiao Sa will feel uncomfortable?" Shi Jingshu smiled, "There are some things, don't be careless, it makes no sense for men to be jealous." ”

"You're talking about yourself!" Shen Muqing covered his mouth and smiled. After meeting Kyoto, she learned that Shi Jingshu was very fond of the flowers and plants around Ren Xiang.

Shi Jingshu's face flushed: "I didn't expect ...... either"

Shen Muqing sighed: "With you in my heart, I naturally respect you in everything." Without you in my heart, naturally everything has nothing to do with you. Sister Jingshu, brother-in-law is very good to you. ”

Shi Jingshu nodded, with a resolute look in her eyes: "So I want to live well with him...... Together for a lifetime. ”

Shen Muqing couldn't help pouting when he heard this: "The one in my family, I don't know when I can be transferred back to Kyoto?" ”

Shi Jingshu hesitated a little.

"Is there anything you can't say to me?" Shen Muqing said angrily.

Shi Jingshu laughed: "It's not that I don't want to say it to you, it's that I don't know what to say." ”

Shen Muqing raised his eyebrows.

"Xianggong said that Xiao Ye has not been three or five years, but I am afraid that it will be difficult to return to Kyoto."

Shen Muqing's eyes darkened when he heard this.

She didn't know.

Dai Gui is in Liaodong, Zeng Ju is in Xuantong, Xiao Sa is in Gansu, and there are Li Huan and Wang Tu in Kyoto. Although Dai Gui, Wang Tu and Li Huan have the merit of supporting the establishment, they are not as good as Zeng Ju and Xiao Sa after all, they have the grace of saving their lives and are their confidants. And Zeng Ju and Xiao Sa are different. Zeng Ju was born with meritorious deeds and a proud temperament, how can he compare to Xiao Sa, the two are of the same age, and they share weal and woe in Bahe...... The emperor agreed that Xiao Sa would go to Gansu, but he was afraid that he already had a plan in his heart. Without three or five years, how can you make a feat of becoming a marquis!

Shi Jingshu sighed: "The man is at the border all the year round, and he doesn't blame the Dai family for being thin." ”

Speaking of this, Shen Muqing thought of the Wei family: "Our two families are now under people's noses, and when their brother Bao celebrated his birthday, it was when the situation was unstable, and he gave gifts, but people didn't dare to go." I don't know how she's doing? ”

"Now that the general trend has been decided, you can just find a chance to take a look!" Shi Jingshu disagreed.

Shen Muqing shook his head: "You don't know. Now Xiao Sa and Dai Gui, one east and one west, what do we want between the two families depends on the emperor's intentions. ”

Ying Fan walked in with a smile: "Grandma, this is the account book of the warehouse over there in the white paper workshop." You see what we have to move, we need to prepare early. ”

Shen Muqing pulled Shi Jingshu to look at it together: "You can also help me come up with ideas!" ”

Shi Jingshu was very interested, the two of them picked and chose from the account books, Ying hurriedly took the notes, wrote down the things to be moved, what kind of curtain to hang in what room, what kind of bonsai to put in the corner of which room, and thought about what to buy, where to buy, and who to send to rest assured...... After four or five days of being busy, Yinliang took the list and started to get busy.

Shen Muqing wrote a letter to Xiao Sa every other day, telling him what was happening around him. Although Xiao Sa didn't reply so diligently, he didn't know anything about it, and he also told Shen Muqing what happened in Gansu. Although the two are thousands of miles apart, they don't have much sense of distance.
