bsp; Chapter Twenty-Eight: Shen Xun

"What's the bad deal?" Shen Xun enlightened his son lightly, "It's all said, there are differences in the clan, and there is a little misunderstanding of Zangfeng's daughter-in-law, you are worried that there is a conflict between the two sides, so go over and explain to Zangfeng's daughter-in-law." As for whether Zang Feng's daughter-in-law cleared up the misunderstanding with the people who invited you over today, or whether she had a bigger misunderstanding after knowing this, it was all their business, what did it matter to us? We are not the owner of the valve, and naturally we will not go beyond the matter of the owner of the valve, so what can we do if we can't mediate except for a long sigh? It's just that the same people of the Shen family, do you want us to see the cracks in the clan's life but don't ask, just like outsiders? ”

He squinted his old eyes and said, "This thing is over today, and you will see it in the future, you should salute and salute, you should greet and greet, even if they ignore you, it is also that they are small and unreasonable, and they can't rely on you!" ”

…… Although Shen Donglai, who had a bad habit but really didn't have any bad intentions in essence, felt a little stressed and muttered, "This ...... It's not good to look up and see what you look down, right? ”

"You really don't want to go?" Shen Xun coaxed him for a moment, and when he saw that this son still looked like he couldn't stick to the wall, he was also a little impatient - he had three sons under his knees, and he wanted to give this opportunity to the more stable eldest son. But Mrs. Huo had a sister-in-law with Shen Dong, and when Wei Changying sent someone to hint, the old lady was also there, insisting on giving this opportunity to her own son...... Although Shen Xun's jealousy of his old wife is not as good as Wei Huan's for Old Madam Song, he has been together for many years, and he always has a love between husband and wife, but he can't resist Mrs. Huo's entanglement, so he agreed.

But he didn't want the other two concubines to dream of something, Shen Donglai hesitated like this, so he said hesitantly: "Then think about it, I'll give you a cup of tea!" If you look forward like this again, I will send someone to call your eldest brother and let him go!" When your mother asks, you don't want it yourself! ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to call his eldest brother over, Shen Donglai was shocked: although he was a gentleman, Shen Xun did not allow Mrs. Huo to tell him in advance about this incident, but since he was a child, he deeply understood all kinds of embarrassments after his concubine became the eldest son and his sister-in-law became the second son. I can't say that I have always been resentful of this eldest brother, and I was given a little mention by Mrs. Huo, and I was always on guard.

Originally, he didn't think that this opportunity was good now, but when he heard that if he didn't want it, he would leave it to his eldest brother, so he was a little flustered, and said: "Father, the child just wants that Wei is just a woman's family, and he is still the child's niece in terms of seniority." In the past, there is a difference between men and women, and it may not be convenient to see her; Second, the child is an uncle who goes to tell his niece, which is ...... It's really undignified! ”

"Now the entire three circles of Xiliang City are full of people who seek medical treatment from the little divine doctor, then Wei's identity is noble enough, not to mention that now that there are so many people, the little divine doctor has no intention of leaving Mingpeitang for treatment." Shen Xun kicked him angrily, he didn't even bother to stroke his beard, glared and shouted, "Now it's not quite a person with status and status, even Shen Youyi and his wife are difficult to see, they are all introduced by ordinary servants!" Not to mention Webster! You are afraid that you will delay your father's illness, so you go in person so as not to ask for medicine, this is filial piety, why is it inconvenient to see her?! As for what you said after meeting her, do you want to say it to the outside world? Again......

Shen Xun is a disciple of the Shen family, and he also went into battle when he was young, and he learned some slang between the ranks, and he couldn't care about Sven of his children when he was angry, and roared, "Didn't Lao Tzu remind you repeatedly a long time ago - who said that you went to snitch?!" You were dragged over by those messy things to discuss it today, knowing that they all had a bit of a 'misunderstanding' with the Wei family, and were worried that the clan would have a rift because of this, so in the past, I gently reminded that the Wei clan is still in harmony with each other! ”

The more Shen Xun thought about it, the more angry he became, looking at the second son who couldn't help but smile at him, he simply stood up and lifted the corners of his robe, kicked him seriously and staggered a few steps, and said hatefully, "Something that doesn't fight for anger!" The three turns and nine bends of the powder head in the hook bar are proficient in everything, and they are so stupid in serious matters! I really don't know how Lao Tzu can have such a stupid son as you! ”

Shen Donglai felt that the force of the kick on his body was not too big or small, and he was worried that his father would kick down all the way and deliberately avoid it, he knew that although his father would be unhappy, he was not angry yet - but if he didn't know how to resign to Ming Peitang, his father might be angry.

smiled at the moment: "Father, please calm your anger, my father has taught me a lesson!" The child went to change his clothes and went to find his niece Wei! ”

Although he was beaten and scolded by his father when he was at home, and even the new robe was kicked by Shen Xun, if it weren't for the absence of others, it would be really embarrassing. But Shen Dong came to Mingpeitang without such trouble, and Wei Changying, who already had a great reputation outside, greeted the second gate very politely: "I don't know if my uncle is coming, my niece is late, and I hope my uncle will forgive me!" ”

When Shen Donglai faced his father at home, he was a "female streamer", and he seemed to look down on Wei Changying very much. When he really saw the face of this nephew and daughter-in-law, he seemed more restrained than Wei Changying - this is also for a reason, he has been pampered since he was a child, so he has always been idle. There is no great evil, but it is inevitable to commit a crime on the greedy flowers.

Xiliang is the Sangzi land of the Shen family, the villagers in the township, and it is necessary to expect the common people to actively join the army to ensure the safety of Xiliang, because the elders in the clan have always restrained their children from making too many mistakes in the Xiliang territory...... Xiliang is not as good as Fengzhou, which makes people angry and resentful, and Li Shu can only accept it in addition to moving elsewhere.

The people in this place have fought with Qiu Di for so many years, and they are all fierce and brave. There is also Qiu Di watching from the side, which really makes people anxious, and the people drag their families to go to the Di people to beg for a living, and turn around and lead the Di people to slaughter the children of the Shen family; If someone with a heart knows that if you go to the court to participate in a book, the Tao is in the Shen's fish and meat township, which makes the people of Xiliang uneasy, and they want to abandon the Great Wei and go to the barbarians...... The Shen family is in trouble!

And if you don't defect to the Di people, it's not true that people will have no life, so they have to lie down. For example, there are many easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack terrain at the junction of Great Wei and Qiudi, because of the continuous beacon fire for a hundred years, these places are barren except for some towns and forts as strongholds on both sides. There may also be some people who are bandits, thieves and farmers.

The so-called bandits, thieves and farmers are like this: Xiliang has been burning for many years, it is not easy to cultivate, and there is little fertile land, and most of them are still in the hands of the Shen family, and the common people can't survive for various reasons, so they simply brave the beacon fire and run to these places to reclaim - although there is no good land in these places, but fortunately, it is not under the control of the government and the Shen family, and there is no need to pay taxes.

Well, that's when farming is busy......

Idle, these people occasionally form groups similar to Xiang Yong, looking for an opportunity to do something without capital......

Of course, the west is cold and bitterly cold, and there are not many merchants, and they don't dare to dry up and fish. This unprofitable trade is probably going to the rich who persecuted them in the past. On the other hand, the government has to collect taxes, and the landlords are mainly tenants...... The horizontal and vertical sides are definitely not to be dealt with!

Speaking far away, let's get back to the topic - Xiliang, where the folk customs are so fierce, and the gentlemen like Shen Donglai don't dare to do things like robbing the people's daughters indiscriminately. didn't even dare to rob a people's girl, but it is conceivable that Shen Donglai's temperament is really not bad...... Partial guard Changying is young and beautiful, she is bright and beautiful without fat powder, and now her husband is far away in Di Realm, worried that he will be underestimated by the clansmen, and he is very careful in and out of dress every day, and is surrounded by a group of handmaidens who are quite beautiful compared to ordinary people.

Shen Donglai usually likes to look at beauties, if he sees such a pink head in the goulan field, he is afraid that he will not even be able to walk, and he will be hung up and beaten by Shen Xun, and he will have to find a way to kiss Fang Ze! However, others are not shameless enough to have a dirty heart towards their niece and daughter-in-law...... So every time I see this nephew and daughter-in-law, it's not good to see more, it's not good to look at it, it's really a little helpless. As an elder, of course, it is not good to show this kind of helplessness inexplicably, so I have to say little, always be vigilant, don't make a fool of myself, doesn't it seem restrained?

Wei Changying didn't expect him to think about this, but Shen Donglai was a person like an embroidered pillow, and he was also frightened by all kinds of methods to deter the clansmen these days, so although he called him "uncle" one by one, this clan uncle was still very jealous of himself.

Out of this consideration, Wei Changying's attitude was more respectful, and he heard Shen Donglai staring at the tea in front of him and whispered, "Come and do", without saying a word, he sent someone to ask Duanmu Xinmiao for a bottle of pills, God knows what kind of pill, and politely asked his uncle to accept it.

Taking advantage of the situation when the subordinates went to get the medicine, Shen Donglai was chattering and wandering freely in front of his father, almost holding back the so-called "words of hope for clan harmony".

Wei Changying thanked his uncle with a smile and promised to resolve the "misunderstanding" with these clansmen.

After sending Shen Donglai away, the Huang family asked the maids to retreat, and said to Wei Changying with a smile: "This is the future history of the Xiliang Thorn?" The servant looks good-tempered. ”

"It's because the fourth brother said that he has a good temper, so I asked my aunt to reveal the news to the people in front of Mrs. Huo, instead of just telling the fourth uncle." Wei Changying smiled lightly and said, "What do you want to do so capable?" Sensibility is the most important thing. "People who are too capable are always so disobedient, such as Wei Xinyong, who would dare to use him if he is not Wei Huan, Mrs. Song, etc., who dares to use him? Maybe one of them was accidentally calculated by him.

Again, the key is ...... Obedient!

This Shen Donglai is usually idle and has no talent, and his heart is not evil, just a very ordinary gentleman. From the fact that he was very restrained in front of his junior, Wei Changying deduced that this guy was not very bold. It is impossible for him to govern Xiliang well, but his father Shen Xun is a shrewd person, his own father and son, and he lives in Xiliang City, so it is impossible not to help his son...... Well, that's exactly what she had in mind as a candidate for state office.

Wei Changying is not worried that Shen Xun will instigate his son to cross the river and tear down the bridge in the future, Shen Donglai has this talent and skill at this age, if he is not born, it is impossible to be a state official or a county official. Shen Xuan can push him up, and he can also tear him down. Besides, there have been good news on the Di Realm these days, it is said that Da Dan Yu Mushuer hastily led his troops from Chinese New Year's Eve night to meet the battle after repeated defeats, and now he is no longer able to restrain his subordinates, and is fleeing all the way to the depths of the grassland......

Even if Shen Zangfeng will not be very important among the people who want to come to the imperial capital to report his success and invite merit after this battle, in Xiliang, his prestige and status will inevitably rise to a higher level.

As his wife, Wei Changying acted more and more after the good news, and no one dared to disobey him.

Shen Xun Danfan didn't faint, he would never do anything foolish.

Huang also smiled: "The fourth old lady and the fourth old lady are indeed reasonable people. ”

Since Wei Changying arrived in Xiliang, Shen Xun and his wife have been the most cooperative and friendly among the elderly. Therefore, after Wei Changying knew that her husband intended to replace Xiliang Thorn History, she suggested that Shen Xun should take over the responsibility of Thorn History.

It's just that Shen Xun's room can't be obtained for nothing - today's such a whistleblower, although it is said that the children of the family have already reported the incident to Wei Changying, but this is different from Shen Donglai coming to say it in person: before it was just a friendly scene, but this time it was to offend those who invited Shen Xun's room to discuss together.

Wei Changying asked Huang to take the initiative to hint at Mrs. Huo, in fact, she gave Mrs. Huo a choice: either follow the Yan branch, and Shen Xun will take over the position of Xiliang Thorn History; Either that, or they are still in the same group as they are in the other rooms...... Of course, Shen Xun and Old Madam Huo are very clear about the status of the Huang family in front of Wei Changying, this Aunt Huang has said so, if the two of them are not reasonable enough, the consequences can be imagined!

Simply now that the branch is in full swing, Shen Xun does not expect the position of the lord of the valve, follow the vein of the lord of the valve, not to mention in the future, now the idle second son is going to sit in the position of a governor, there is no reason why he should not be.

"Now just wait for the news from the imperial capital to come and send the current assassin back to be filial to his old father who has been sick until now." Wei Changying took a sip of tea, looked at the sky outside where there was still a little snow, and sighed lightly, "Xiliang is really bitter cold!" At this time, even if there are one or two spring snows in the imperial capital, it should be full of spring, right? ”
