Chapter 55: Elders



[Chapter 2, Volume 2]

Section 90

"So the eldest cousin is here too?" Wei Changying knew that Song Zaitian had also come over, but he was going to meet Shen Zhou today, but he was too nervous to forget Song Zaitian to the clouds, and at this moment, he was reminded by Mrs. Song before he quickly glanced at it, and saluted respectfully, "I often hear my mother talk about my uncle and two cousins, but I used to be young and no longer remember." I thought we would see each other later, but I didn't think I would see my eldest cousin soon. ”

Although Wei Changying was closer to Song Zaitian than when he met Shen Zhou before, this did not offend Shen Zhou. After all, Wei Changying has not yet left the cabinet, even if she is already considered a member of the Shen family according to her name, Shen Zhou has just said this, but she is also a little reserved before officially entering the door, which shows the dignity of the Wei family's daughter.

What's more, Shen Zhou is her elder, and it is the first time they have met, with Wei Huan and Mrs. Song here, Wei Changying talks too much, but it is not dignified enough. Song Zaitian and Wei Changying are the same generation, they are cousins, and Mrs. Song said that Wei Changying had seen this cousin in her infancy, and at this time, the appropriate intimacy can further show Wei Changying's generosity and good at receiving things.

Wei Changying slipped away, and caught a glimpse of his eldest cousin's long eyebrows, bright eyes, demeanor, and extremely strong bookish atmosphere between his eyebrows, and he could tell at a glance that he was a child of a scholarly family. Dressed in a light scarlet brocade robe, wearing a soft veil on his head, a jade belt around his waist, and a wrench on his thumb - sitting dignified and respectful, but without losing the closeness to the Wei family, the bearing of everyone's children, although there is no demeanor that attracts attention, but it is also impeccable.

According to the usual teachings of Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song, such a person may not be obvious, but he is extremely rigorous, has plans and ideas for everything, and does not like to be disobeyed. Wei Changying thought: This big cousin doesn't know if he looks like that stubborn uncle?

Although Wei Changying speculated that this eldest cousin was not really a good talker, Song Zaitian was very kind at the moment to let his cousin get up, and said with a smile: "Cousin Lao asked, my father often misses my aunt, speaking of which, when I first saw my cousin, my cousin was not yet full of weeks, and in a blink of an eye, she was about to leave the cabinet, and time flies." When I came to Fengzhou this time, my father also told me to bring a makeup dowry for my cousin, which was regarded as adding makeup to my cousin in advance. ”

His words are gentle and his demeanor is soft, and he is very easy to make people feel good, and he is a model of a brother who loves his younger brothers and sisters. was just mentioned in public that he was out of the cabinet, Wei Changying's white and tender cheeks were still dyed with a layer of crimson, and he turned his face away slightly, and when he glanced at the hall, Mrs. Song laughed out at the right time: "Yu Wang is polite, you kid has worked hard all the way." ”

He called Wei Changying to stand behind him.

Wei Changying regretted that he couldn't leave yet, but he still maintained a dignified attitude on his face, and stood in the past according to his words. Before she stood up, she listened to Wei Huan open her mouth and said to Shen Zhou: "This war in the north of the state ...... a day."

But the business was not finished yet, and I didn't know why I called Wei Changying over to meet first.

Taking advantage of the situation, Wei Changying looked at Shen Zhou quietly.

The future uncle was about half a hundred years old, and his face was as heroic as his voice. Speaking from the heart, Shen Zhou can be regarded as having good facial features, wide eyebrows and a square mouth, but the lion-like flamboyant beard, bronzed complexion, and the soaring murderous aura between the eyebrows, although convergent, is still difficult to conceal - when it comes to Xingtou, he excitedly rolled up his sleeves, and he didn't even care about the tea stained on the placket, this kind of roughness and informality are far from the elegant and fair-skinned handsomeness advocated in the current door valve......

Wei Changying, who was deeply influenced by the mainstream aesthetics of Valve, and whose judgment of men has always been compared with Wei Zhenghong's appearance and bearing, fell into deep regret after seeing the uncle's appearance clearly.

…… Forget it, anyway, I didn't expect Shen Zangfeng to like me very much.

Husband, as long as you can be beaten by me!

She comforted herself so much.

Because of this huge disappointment, Wei Changying didn't even have the heart to listen to the elders, until it was almost time to hold the lamp, and the servant came in to say goodbye, which woke her up: "Song Changshi and his son Song Duan have gone to the front yard and asked to see the angel. ”

Wei Changying was stunned, and saw his grandfather caressing his beard with an indifferent expression, with a hint of a smile, and said, "Ah, I think they are done...... That being the case, what about ...... What does Danxiao think? ”

Danxiao is Shen Zhou's character, according to the rules of the elders calling the name and the words of the peers, Wei Huan naturally called it so to show respect for the angels. But although Shen Zhou is also half a hundred years old, he is not as old as Wei Huan in terms of generation, and the two families are about to become in-laws, so he is not at all serious, and he is busy and humble: "Wei Gong called my name." Then he replied, "It is getting late now, and I am very sleepy, and I am afraid that I will not be able to make the decree." As...... Please Song Changshi simply wait for one night, and then announce the will of their father and son tomorrow? ”

Wei Huan smiled calmly and said, "As it should be, you are still in a hurry today, and it is too late now, and it is not beautiful to make a hasty announcement...... Song Han and Song Duan are both reasonable people, and they will not be surprised. ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Wei Huan bowed to the hall: "Go." ”

The subordinate who came in before to ask for instructions understood, bowed down and said, "The little one is going to tell Song Changshi and his son." ”

Hearing this, Wei Changying somewhat understood......

Because of Zhibentang's calculations, Ruiyutang knew that Song Han and Song Duan had robbed the commoner Mo Binwei of the credit, but he couldn't make a statement, so as not to fall into Wei Qi's trap. But it is impossible for Rui Yutang to do nothing, especially this time it was Shen Zhou who came to Fengzhou to praise and appease the people - before Wei Changfeng escorted his two sisters back from Xiaozhushan, and then went to invite Deng Zongqi to Wei's house to recuperate, wasn't he immediately sent out again Corporal Lixian that Mo Binwei?

It's just that the truth is not exposed, Song Han and Song Duan are now considered to be heroes of great victory, it is said that after Shen Zhou announced the will to praise Wei Huan and Wei Shengnian, even if he did not immediately announce the holy decree of Song Han's father and son, he should call them to Ruiyu Hall to express a few words of condolences and encouragement first...... Even if Shen Zhou didn't bring it up, Wei Huan should bring it up to show that he, Shangguan, was not jealous of his capable subordinates.

This is also an opportunity to make Song Han and Song Duan's reputation go to the next level.

But Wei Huan wanted to talk to Shen Zhou and Song Zaitian in detail, because he didn't want Song Han's father and son to be in front of him, and he didn't want to fall into the name of snubbing heroes, so he ...... I'm afraid that they will either try to make something to stumble Song Han and Song Duan, so that they can't come before; Either they were simply sent out and could not find them "all the time"; Even when they came, they couldn't enter the Wei family...... All in all, it was Wei Huan who led people to find their father and son, but these two people were slow to arrive - of course, the responsibility lies with Song Han and Song Duan.

So Wei Huan, who was "kind" and "sympathetic" to his subordinates, in order to avoid the embarrassment of the scene, specially invited Shen Zhou to the back hall, called Song Zaitian to accompany his old wife, and called his granddaughter who had a marriage contract with the Shen family out to visit, in order to cover up Song Han's neglect of angels and ease the atmosphere.

This is also why after Wei Changying met Shen Zhou and Song Zaitian, she was not sent back to the Frost Court, but was left behind - and after leaving her, the elders did not mention the marriage contract or the matter of welcoming relatives, but immediately went to get down to business.

Calling her here is just a pretense to further prove Wei Huan's tolerance and maintenance of Song Han's father and son......

Just like Mrs. Song said before, the Jiangnan Song clan is one of the six valves in China, and the owner Song Xinping is known as a promise and has never changed. Such a person must do what he says, even if he knows that the East Palace is desolate and not a good match, how can he regret his marriage? ! Repentance of marriage is definitely not done by the Song family! The Song family has always been a talker-but, if Concubine Deng or someone else intervenes and lets Song Zaishui continue to marry the prince, there is no way to do it!

The Song family is also a victim!

The current situation is that Wei Huan spares no effort to promote Song Han and his son, but the father and son are not angry, such a late arrival is not only a snub angel, but also a loss of Wei Huan's face - even so, Wei Huan still called his granddaughter to round the field for them, such a good Shangguan can be described as benevolent and righteous - everything is Song Han's father and son are not good, maybe they are proud of their great achievements in the north of the state, and now they are starting to be proud and complacent?

Speaking of Wei Huan, an important minister of the country, he is helpless to return to his hometown to retire but catch up with such a shallow governor of the state......

This can be described as killing three birds with one stone, which not only won the time to communicate with Shen Zhou and Song Zaitian first; also smeared Song Han and Song Duan, shaking their impression of heroes in the minds of people who don't know the inside story; By the way, I also took care of my personal affairs - let my granddaughter meet the elders of her husband's family.

And there is a little bit of selfishness of Wei Huan here: whether Wei Changying's granddaughter is really virtuous and gentle, where does he not know? Although Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song are carefully taught, Wei Changying is not an obedient person! Now I have something to say, where does Shen Zhou still have the heart to pay attention to this nephew and daughter-in-law...... Take this opportunity to let this granddaughter who can't make him feel at ease......

In Fengzhou, it is natural that the Wei's valve is easy to deal with.

When she got up early the next morning, Wei Changying listened to Zhu Shi and Zhu Yan gossiping under the corridor, which was exactly what happened last night. She called the two of them to ask about it, and it turned out that now it has spread in the house, saying that Song Han and Song Duan are so bold, even the angels have become sluggish, and they have lost the face of the lord.

This is in the frost court, in the evening, Mama Shi told Mrs. Song that the rumors have spread to have a nose and eyes, and even someone has made up for the reason for neglect: Song Han and Song Duan have made great contributions in the north of the state, and they are very dissatisfied with Wei Huan not letting him participate in the greeting when the angel arrives, so that after Wei Huan took over the will to praise his father and son, he wanted to send someone to call Song Han and Song Duan to see the angel first, but this lift was regarded as a humiliation by Song Han, and he deliberately delayed until the lamp came over.

It's not over here, last night it was obviously Wei Huan and Shen Zhou who tacitly agreed, and sent Song Han and Song Duan away under the pretext that it was late and Shen Zhou was quite tired all the way. However, in the rumors, it became: "The angel hurried away during the day, and first read out the holy decree praising the lord and the third master, and he was tired." What's more, I waited for Song Han's father and son for a long time before, so I had to ask for a reason! I didn't want to be ordered to ask them why they were late, but the father and son were so majestic that they changed color on the spot and threw their sleeves away! ”
