Chapter 148: Fu Ling goes south

Shen Zhen was still a far-sighted person in the end, and he quickly understood Shen Muqing's worries.

He was a little sad.

The daughter was first for his wife, and now for him......

The next day, Shen Zhen called Aunt Chen, Shen Muqing, and Dashe to the study, and arranged the affairs of the family in front of the three of them.

"My family's annual expenses are now between 1,200 and 1,500 taels. Mu Qing's dowry and companion room were given to her when his wife was there, and the sixteen shops in Jiangnan were also given to Dashe when his wife was there, and these were not moved. The family is also the old house of the petrified bridge, because it has been passed down from generation to generation, I left it to the big house. ”

As he spoke, Shen Zhen set his eyes on Aunt Chen.

"I didn't let you take care of the house before, firstly because you didn't have the mind of your wife, and secondly, because I didn't want the house to grow longer than the woman's hands. I still think so. But Mu Qing pleads for you, let me hand over the house to you, and hand over the big house to you to take ......"

Aunt Chen couldn't suppress her surprise and looked at Shen Muqing with her mouth open.

Because Shen Zhen was speaking, Shen Muqing. He smiled kindly at her.

"In the future, you will be the housekeeper. But Dashe handed it over to Mu Qing. brought, and in the future, he will also live with Mu Qing in Tingyuxuan. ”

"Sir!" Aunt Chen burst into tears and was very excited.

But Shen Muqing was dumbfounded.

Give the house to yourself......

Shen Zhen ignored the two and continued: "Including. The sixteen shops that were allocated to the house will also be under your control. Mu Qing lives at home and gives 400 taels of silver to Gongzhong every year, but she bears the monthly rules for accompanying the room, clothes for the four seasons, and rewards, and the people are also assigned by herself, so you can't move. ”

Aunt Chen nodded as she listened.

"After a hundred years, if you want to stay in the Shen family, Dashe will also treat you as an elder. kind of treat. You go west and be buried in the ancestral grave in Taicang. If you don't want to stay in the Shen family, you can leave with our Shen family as relatives in the future. I believe that both Mu Qing and Dashe have this mind! If you agree, I will ask Mr. Min and Master Yuan to write a note in the afternoon. ”

Aunt Chen hid her face and cried.

This time, it was the real tears.

Da She didn't seem to understand when she heard it, and looked at Aunt Chen with a worried face.

Shen Muqing thought that from now on, this villain was his own responsibility. , my heart softened, I stepped forward and hugged Dashe, and persuaded Aunt Chen: "Auntie, don't cry, be careful to scare Dashe." ”

Aunt Chen raised her head, a smile bloomed on her tearful face, and said to Dashe: "Don't be afraid, Auntie is happy." You have to listen to your sister in the future. ”

Dashe looked at Shen Muqing timidly.

Shen Muqing smiled at him.

"Sit down!" Shen Zhen instructed Aunt Chen and Shen Muqing with an indifferent expression.

A few people sat down again.

Shen Zhen said: "Me and Mu. Qing sent his wife's coffin home. During this period, the affairs of the family were in charge of Wang's mother. ”

Then he looked at Aunt Chen: "You give me a good time to think about it at home behind closed doors, and copy the "Female Commandment" ten thousand times." After calming down, I took over the housekeeper. ”

He looked at Dashe again: "As for Dashe, send it to Mr. Min - Mr. Min's younger brother is studying in Kyoto, and I have asked him to enlighten Dashe." ”

"Send Dashe to Mr. Min?" Looking at the big house like bean sprouts, Shen Muqing was very surprised.

Aunt Chen also looked at Shen Zhen with tears in her eyes.

"A loving mother is a loser!" Shen Zhen disagreed.

At this moment, neither of them can say anything.

But the kind of care that Shen Muqing showed immediately won Aunt Chen's favor.

When Shen Zhen received Mr. Min and Master Yuan, Aunt Chen came to thank her.

Shen Muqing let out a long sigh: "I don't know if it's right or wrong to do this!" ”

Aunt Chen said: "Don't worry, girl, I will never do that foolish thing again." ”

Shen Muqing smiled and nodded.

Aunt Chen hesitated for a moment and said, "I won't marry again...... For a hundred years, I will guard the big house, and I can also be buried in the ancestral grave of the Shen family in the future, and enjoy the offerings and incense of my descendants...... I've got enough! ”

When she said this, she had tears in her eyes - she was really moved.

Shen Muqing couldn't help but smile bitterly.

After all, there are a few people like Shen Zhen, Li and himself who don't care about the ancestral tomb incense...... Speaking of which, Shen Zhen is still very powerful, and a sentence that allows her to enter the ancestral grave of the Shen family has already made Aunt Chen feel at ease.

However, when she knew that Shen Zhen decided to be buried with the Li family in the ancestral tomb of the Li family in Xiangshan...... What kind of expression will it be?

Maybe it's because I'm overthinking.

Aunt Chen married Shen Zhen to rely on, but now that everything she hoped for has come true, there is no regret for her......

******

After sending off Mr. Min and Master Yuan, Shen Zhen showed Aunt Chen and Shen Muqing the notes he had made, that is, something similar to our will today, and finally solemnly put it in a small box with a black lacquered flower and bird pattern.

Aunt Chen was satisfied, and the next day she began to copy the "Female Commandment" without leaving home.

Shen Muqing was busy packing up his things, and on March 14, Shen Zhen sent the pitiful looking at Shen Muqing's house to Mr. Min's house in Tianjing Hutong.

After Shen Zhen left, Shen Muqing went to the tea shop in the white paper workshop, told Zhou Bing about his whereabouts, and asked him to take a good look at the shop.

Zhou Bing nodded again and again, and told her excitedly: "Everyone praises our shop for its elegance, and the guests who come are getting more and more generous!" It's definitely going to make money this year. ”

Shen Muqing was a little surprised.

At the beginning, she was doing the whole shop, because she felt that those shopkeepers followed her master into high-end places, and they were all broad-minded and elegant, so that people who came to drink tea felt more comfortable...... But I didn't expect it to invisibly improve the grade of the guests.

"Keep doing the business of a penny. No one is going to have trouble with money! Shen Muqing groaned, "This time, when my lord and I returned to our hometown, we will go to various famous tea shops to have a look." Let's see what varieties everyone sells and what characteristics they have......"

Zhou Bing was very happy to hear it.

Shen Muqing can put his mind on business like this, why worry that this shop can't be done!

******

On March 16, Mr. Ouyang invited Taoist priests and monks to do the work and pick up the remains of the Li family.

On March 17, with Li's coffin, Shen Muqing followed Shen Zhen south by water.

On the fifth day of the fifth month of the fifth month, they arrived at Elephant Mountain.

Xiangshan is a county town facing the sea on three sides, and the Li family is in a small town called Nanwan in Xiangshan, which is a family of generations of cultivation and study. In Li's grandfather's generation alone, there are seven brothers, and in Shen Muqing's generation, there are no less than 100 cousins and cousins, plus in-laws, there are countless of them. It's a real big family.

Shen Zhen returned to his hometown with the coffin of the Li family, and the people of the Li family were surprised. But Shen Muqing's honest uncle still warmly entertained Shen Muqing's father and daughter, on the issue of whether to let the Li family enter the ancestral tomb of the Li family, although he was clumsy and would not argue with reason, but said a very practical word: "No, just buy a piece of land next door, and I will help take care of it!" ”

Shen Zhen knew that his behavior was a bit shocking, and he could understand the Li family's decision. I bought a piece of land next to the ancestral grave of the Li family, and then picked the day of June 16 to break the ground for the Li family. Not only that, but he also asked someone to build a tomb for him next to the Li family.

Uncle Shen Muqing ran forward and backward on the side. Ask the person in the tooth shop to write the transfer paperwork, ask the feng shui master to look at the cemetery, ask the Taoist priest and monk to make the dojo, and ask the craftsman to level the land, plant trees and flowers...... Shen Zhen shook his hand and handed it all to him - Shen Zhen has lived in Nanwan Town for ten years, and has been in Zhejiang, I heard that when he came back, many young friends, classmates and officials from some other places in Zhejiang came to visit him.

Shen Muqing's cousin Li Wanyu was entrusted by Uncle Han to accompany her every day. The two of them either did needlework or went to the town for a stroll - half of them were surnamed Li anyway, and the other half were relatives of the Li family.

Once, she also went to the beach with Li Wanyu and Li Wanqing to swim in the water.

In Nanwan Town, no one knew that Shen Muqing had ever been married, and they all regarded her as a little girl. Her two personal maids, Yingfeng and Mingxia, didn't say anything, and called Shen Muqing "girl" in front of others.

Summer has passed, and all the skirts brought by Shen Muqing are short, but the skin is always not tanned, which provokes Li Wanyu to pinch her face and shout "unfair".

Shen Zhen took Shen Muqing to Hangzhou to make clothes, and Li Wanyu also accompanied him.

They rented a river house in Hangzhou, and after the New Year, they went to Jiangsu.

When they were in Nantong, they learned to make kites, when they were in Yixing, Shen Muqing pinched ten purple clay pots with his own hands, Shen Zhen also took them to Changzhou, where they bought more than 100 comb grates, and swam all over Taihu Lake, Slender West Lake, and Jinji Lake, and the spring water of Zhenjiang Zhongling Spring, Wuxi Huishan Spring, and Huqiu Hanhan Spring each hit a pot back, and finally encountered the first snow of winter in Nanjing.

Shen Zhen took them to live in the house of one of his old friends, Shizi Mo, a scholar of Yuanyuan Pavilion and a scholar of the Ministry of Officials.

The Shi family has planted tea gardens for generations, and Shen Muqing is very interested.

Shi Zimo asked his sixth-ranked granddaughter Shi Jingshu to entertain her and Li Wanyu - the Shi family's tea garden was managed by Shi Jingshu, who was not married at the age of twenty-seven.

Shen Muqing opened his eyes, followed Shi Jingshu to put on men's clothes and ran around the tea market in Jiangsu, and in the spring, he followed her to live in the tea garden, starting from picking tea, learning to understand tea from a new perspective.

By the time they left Nanjing, Lin Ruichun had already arrived at Shijia Tea Garden from Kyoto. He will follow Shi Jingshu for a year to learn how to grow tea, pick tea, roast tea and manage tea gardens, and then find a suitable place to plant tea in the south of the Yangtze River, so that Yiwen Tea House can sell its own tea, which can not only reduce intermediate links and reduce costs, but also ensure the quality of tea and cultivate their core competitiveness.

Shi Jingshu was very interested in her plan, and the two agreed that when Shen Muqing returned to Kyoto, she would visit Shen Muqing to see if they could do business together.

In the autumn of the twenty-first year of Anqing, Shen Zhen and Shen Muqing returned to the long-lost Petrochemical Bridge Pine Hutong.

When we meet, it's like a world away.

Especially Dashe, who is eight years old, if it weren't for Jinxiu holding him, Shen Muqing wouldn't have recognized him at all.

(Sisters, we'll see you at midnight...... (*^__^*) hee hee ...... ）
