Chapter 297: Kyoto Anecdotes
No matter what this Mrs. Chen meant, in this case, Shen Muqing couldn't promise anything. The update is the fastest and the fastest to the eye
She smiled: "Buying a house is a big deal, and it's not easy for me to make decisions." Let's wait until we go back and discuss it, our grandfather. ”
"That's, that's." Mrs. Chen hurriedly smiled and agreed, then turned her eyes and said, "Have you ever heard of a grocery store called Tongyuansheng?" ”
Wang Wenhui's shop? How to talk about this!
Shen Muqing smiled: "I've heard of it." The things in this shop are very good, mandarin fish, anchovies, sea cucumbers...... There are living creatures. Unlike some shops, it's all dry goods. ”
Mrs. Min quickly glanced at Shen Muqing from the corner of her eyes, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Our family also orders from Tongyuansheng." ”
Mrs. Chen covered her mouth and smiled, and said in a low voice: "Do those ladies know that Tongyuansheng, something big has happened in the past few days!" ”
Shen Muqing, Shi Jingshu and Mrs. Min were all stunned, and their eyes showed curiosity.
Mrs. Min Liu frowned slightly when she saw it, and wanted to say something to stop Mrs. Chen's gossip, and thought that she was just a guest and should not take care of other people's private affairs, so she lowered her head and drank tea gently.
Mrs. Zhao turned her eyes and took everyone's expressions in her eyes. She showed a knowing smile and said, "Marquis Dingyuan moved to Tongyuansheng to live!" ”
Everyone was stunned.
Liang Bogong moved to live in Tongyuansheng...... Could it be that he left the Liang family...... But he is a family member, how can he leave...... Did you quarrel with Feng...... No, although Liang Bogong hasn't met a few times, this person is very good to his brother and should be a filial person, how could he make the move to live in Tongyuan. Doesn't he know that in this way, the conflict in the family will escalate? Isn't there anyone around him who reminds him...... Or, is it what Wang Wenhui means?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head.
How could such a smart person as Wang Wenhui do such a thing...... Definitely not her!
The more Shen Muqing thought about it, the more confused he became, and he wanted to ask Mrs. Chen what was going on, but he didn't know where to start.
"How so?" Shi Jingshu came back to her senses, "Master Hou is doing this, don't you want to bear the name of unfilial piety?" ”
"Alas!" Mrs. Chen sighed, "If that's all there is to it, then it will be easy to do." As long as the Hou Ye comes forward to explain casually - or say that Tongyuansheng is close to the yamen, and it is more convenient to move there, he will return to Nanxunfang on his holiday; Or maybe the child misses his mother and takes him to live there for a few days...... It's all settled. ”
The people in the room nodded.
"Who knows, yesterday afternoon, the third wife of the Liang family brought a group of people to smash Tongyuansheng to a pulp. He also crossed his waist and shouted on the street. said that the Liang family was not separated, and Liang Bogong did not support his mother and brothers, and took the money from the public middle school out to do business for the Wang family. only cares about their own house, regardless of the life or death of others. Watching the bustling crowd blocked the streets. I heard that at that time, Mrs. Hou hid in the shop in shame and never came out, so that her brother and daughter-in-law scolded a dog. Many people in the Imperial Court are also discussing, saying that the first emperor should not have let the concubine inherit the title in front of the concubine, which made the Liang family indistinguishable, and the dignity and inferiority were unknown...... Some people also threatened to join Liang Bogong. said that he had no ability to educate, his wife left home first, and he abandoned his mother and brother later, and he was a person who was unfilial and unfilial. As he spoke, he looked up and looked outside, "As for whether those imperial histories are involved in the Liang family, there should be news when they go down." ”
Wang Wenhui's business money was simply lent to her by herself, how did it become Liang Bogong's money...... Fortunately, Wang Wenhui was "ashamed to hide at home and didn't come out", if she came out to argue like this, I was afraid that she would become a laughing stock in Kyoto - what was her intention to borrow money from her divorced brother-in-law to do business with her sister-in-law who had left home?
Once he fell into it, how could the Xiao family and the Shen family be spared......
She couldn't help but look nervous, and her waistcoat was cold.
Mrs. Min Liu was full of unbearable when she heard this.
What woman is not full of joy and anti-expectation when she gets married! Who would have thought of abandonment and renunciation...... But Providence plays tricks on people, and nothing in the world is perfect. What's more, she is her daughter's aunt and grandmother, and if she hurts her face, she hurts her daughter's face, and she hurts her own face......
"I've heard people say, how can this Liang family have been meritorious for generations, how can they be so poorly educated?" Mrs. Min Liu smiled, "It's okay to ignore such people." After speaking, he glanced at Mrs. Min.
Don't listen to indecent things, don't look at indecent things......
In Mrs. Min's gaze, Mrs. Min's face was slightly red.
"Yes." She smiled, "It's the Feng family, and they don't have much to do with the Liang family." ”
Mrs. Chen nodded: "Last month, Princess Fuhua held a banquet at home, and I didn't see anyone from the Liang family attending. ”
Shen Muqing was a little surprised when he heard this.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Chen even walked into Princess Fuhua's circle...... It's not easy.
Mrs. Min Liu said busily: "I heard that Princess Fuhua's family often holds banquets and invites some female relatives to chant poems against her, but is there such a thing?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Mrs. Chen said with a smile, "Princess Fuhua often holds poetry meetings at home. Mrs. Min Roku is from the south, and you don't know much about the situation in Kyoto. The people in the north all believe that 'a woman's lack of talent is virtue', and put women's needlework first. However, the people in our south are different, and they pay attention to 'proficient in poetry, piano, calligraphy and painting', so they rank literacy and writing first. Although this princess Fuhua is in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, she has been studying with the princes since she was a child, and she is very accomplished in both books and paintings. That's why I held this poetry meeting, which has the meaning of meeting friends with books and paintings. In the past few years, the atmosphere in Kyoto has changed, and people with surplus money like to let the girls read some books and know a few words. ”
Shen Muqing faintly heard people mention this matter - it was said that Princess Fuhua often invited female dependents who came to Kyoto from the south to be officials to her home as guests, but she didn't know that there was a poetry club. Speaking of which, she has never received an invitation from Princess Fuhua.
"That's a good thing!" Mrs. Min Liu's eyes flashed with surprise, "A woman can understand reason when she reads." Princess Fuhua can lead the atmosphere of Kyoto women to study, which is really a good thing of great merit. ”
Mrs. Chen nodded: "So as soon as I received the invitation from Princess Fuhua, I brought the two daughters of the martial arts scholars of the Hanlin Academy...... The two girls of the martial arts family are in the limelight at the poetry meeting. She covered her mouth and smiled, "Speaking of which, the Twelve Fuhua Princesses will have a banquet again next month, and I will talk to the princess when the time comes, and everyone will go and have a good time!" ”
This Mrs. Chen, there is always a "surprise" for everyone!
Mrs. Min smiled and drank her tea, but did not make a sound. Mrs. Min Liu said: "We will return to Zhoushan at the beginning of next month, but I am afraid that we will have a regret." ”
Mrs. Chen's gaze fell on Shen Muqing's body.
"My aunt is here, but I'm afraid I won't be able to get out." She looked embarrassed, "I can only talk about it later." ”
Mrs. Chen couldn't help but be a little disappointed, and said with a forced smile: "Since Mrs. Xiao has something to do during this time, then I can only wait for a suitable opportunity." ”
Shen Muqing thanked Mrs. Chen, and a little maid came in and said, "The banquet has been arranged, please move the ladies and wives to the flower hall." ”
Everyone stood up with a smile and went to the flower hall.
The wine and food prepared by Aunt Chen are naturally rich, but they are not as exquisite as Mrs. Chen's. She seemed to know everyone who came, and she could talk to everyone. Shen Muqing thought of Shi Jingshu, who had just persuaded a few people in the house to participate in the poetry meeting, but only missed the cloth clothes...... I couldn't help but feel a little wary in my heart.
When she returned home, she told Xiao Sa what happened: "...... I asked my aunt afterwards, how did this Mrs. Chen and her meet? The aunt said that they met when they went to Hu Xin's house to drink his grandson's engagement wine. Xiao Sa, I always feel that with Mrs. Chen's status, the communication is too wide. ”
Xiao Sa's expression also became a little calm: "You should be careful about this matter." I'm afraid it's related to the emperor's housework! ”
The emperor's housework? There is no trivial matter in the royal family, what household chores can he have?
"Is it for the sake of the reserve?" Shen Muqing couldn't help but blurt out.
"You're a little smart." Xiao Sa smiled and pinched her face, "Now the princess in the palace is being favored!" ”
Wang Guifei gave birth to a son last year.
"But the queen and the emperor are a couple in distress......"
Xiao Sa's eyes were gloomy, and he didn't want to talk about it: "In short, you won't go out in the future!" ”
Shen Muqing believed Xiao Sa's judgment and nodded again and again.
The next day, he called Yinliang to find out about Yuansheng: "...... Let's see what happened to the Liang family? How did they provoke the third wife of their family to scold the street on West Street. ”
Yinliang left in response, and the person who Xiao Sa had arranged to monitor Xiao Cheng came back: "...... Uncle Cheng had just left the city gate, and he listened to the tone of the entourage and wanted to go back to Yangzhou. ”
In the end, I still chose to go to Yangzhou...... I just don't know if Xiao Zhao will leave the Cao Gang to Xiao Cheng!
Shen Muqing sighed and called his mother in: "Go to the eldest lady and report to the eldest lady." ”
Mom answered.
Xiao Sa arranged to spy on Xiao Cheng's little servant, but he looked like he still had something to say.
"What's wrong?" Shen Muqing smiled kindly, "Is there anything wrong with Uncle Cheng, you might as well say it directly." ”
The little girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Grandma is really a god, I do have something to say." ”
Shen Muqing ignored his flattering words and said with a smile: "What happened?" ”
The little maid groaned: "Aunt Lu is with Uncle Cheng!" ”
Shen Muqing was not surprised by such news.
"Knowing that the eldest lord and the eldest lady are in Kyoto, the eldest lord also opened conditions for Aunt Lu to choose, Aunt Lu made a fuss, and Uncle Cheng persuaded her for a long time, otherwise, she would have found her home a long time ago."
I think so.
Cha Xiu lost his mind, and Xiao Cheng was not crazy.
Later, Uncle Cheng told Aunt Lu that whether he went to Lincheng or returned to Yangzhou, he would listen to Aunt Lu. When Aunt Lu heard this, she hugged Uncle Cheng and cried, and said: It's because of her bad life, she married a negative person, and even the children suffered...... He also said, and said...... "The little guy vomited for a long time," and also said that let Uncle Cheng return all the things of the Xiao family to the eldest master, and don't want a penny of the Xiao family, even if he goes to Yangzhou to eat bran vegetables, he will never step into the city half a step. ”
Shen Muqing smiled bitterly.
Xiao Cheng is actually a very similar person to Xiao Sa in essence, in the face of family affection, the two of them regard materials and things relatively lightly...... Cha Xiu said this, but I was afraid that Xiao Cheng would really return all the things of the Xiao family to Xiao Zhao...... However, Xiao Cheng is also a capable person, he doesn't seek to be rich and rich, he lives a life, I believe that Xiao Cheng is still no problem...
