On the eleventh night of the first lunar month, there is a light snow flying, although it stops in the early morning, but push the door to look, but see the green tile covered with white, Wuke frost, a cool air of forest hits the face, with the breathing quickly invades the lungs, people can't help but shiver, the winter of Jinyang, go more slowly, even though it has been spring, but for the land of Jinshuo, the season of the east wind to send warm birds and flowers seems to be far away.

She heard her young granddaughter complain about the snow and the cold, and said with a smile: "Ruixue is a good year, after this spring is a snowfall, this year must be a good harvest." ”

Although Taiyuan Liu is a family, although these noblewomen and noblewomen do not know how to handle the crops, at most they are raising sericulture in the back garden to meet the customs, but as the housewife of the Chen family, they understand that the harvest is also extremely important to the family, otherwise only relying on the income of a few sons is not enough for a large family to eat and drink, what spare money to pamper and pamper?

Chen didn't mean to blame her granddaughter, the girl was still young, she had just enlightened, and she didn't understand that these were common sense, so she just smiled and said, and then explained to the nurse: "The sky has not warmed up, but I am not in a hurry to describe it, and I have to carefully frostbite my hands, but I still have to urge a few girls to behave etiquette, and sit for two hours every day, and I can't be lazy." ”

Suddenly, I remembered something, and asked my daughter-in-law to come over and ask: "It's been a busy day, and I don't have time to ask how the nineteen families of Zuoshanfang are doing, although the child in Qingyang doesn't speak so neatly, fortunately, his body is still strong, and he will be more diligent in the future, and he can also support the door for the nineteen women." ”

It turns out that this Zuoshanfang, there are a lot of Liu clan people, Chen's mouth of the nineteen families, and the grandson is not out of the five suits of the clan, although Liu 19 and the patriarch Liu Ren is the same generation, but the difference is nearly 30 years old, is the youngest of Liu Ren's generation, Liu 19 Jinshi and the first, but only one county order, there is only one daughter under the knee, not married, Liu 19 died of illness, his wife Yan advocated to let her daughter recruit a son-in-law, but the clan did not agree, decided to pass a son and nephew in the Qingzi generation to Liu 19 to inherit the incense, Yan was a little reluctant, Chen wasted a lot of persuasion, and chose Liu Qingyang, the youngest son of Liu Nineteen's brother, for her, but as soon as the New Year was busy, he didn't care about promoting the succession.

"The daughter-in-law naturally didn't dare to be careless about the things that the Ah family confessed, but ...... I went to Uncle Nineteen a few times, but my uncle seemed to be ...... did not give the concubine a word of accuracy. ”

Chen's brows frowned: "She is too confused, if she was a virtuous woman, she should have taken the initiative to take a concubine for Uncle Nineteen, and she would not have let Uncle Nineteen cut off the incense, but the son-in-law is only a thing that only those small families have, our family is the head of the Taiyuan Mansion family, and we can't tolerate this." As he spoke, he was about to put on his feet, and asked the servant woman to bring a coat to wear, seeing that he was going to Zuoshanfang.

The daughter-in-law hurriedly advised: "The Ah family is also anxious, although the snow outside today is not deep, and the road is inevitably slippery, let's go another day." ”

At this time, Zhen came to say hello again, and when he saw Chen's posture as if he was going out, of course he asked two questions, but it happened that she also lived in Zuoshanfang, and her heart moved, so she instigated again: "Uncle and aunt, don't worry, this matter, it's no wonder that Uncle Nineteen has reversed herself, this paragraph, the eldest sister-in-law has not gone to Nineteen Uncle's place, Xu is also for this matter, Nineteen Uncle and Mother are afraid that they don't take a fancy to others, not necessarily." ”

Liu Qingyun is the eighth in the clan, but he is the eldest son in his room, and the eldest sister-in-law that Zhen said can only be Mrs. Zhen's eldest daughter-in-law, Jiang.

"Qingji's daughter-in-law has always been unconcerned about the affairs of the clan, how can she ......" Chen looked at his daughter-in-law suspiciously.

Zhen then said: "After all, the eldest brother is the son of the sect, how can the eldest sister-in-law really not ask about clan affairs, hasn't my uncle heard that my aunt took the initiative to hand over a post to the Jin palace after the New Year, and the day before yesterday, the princess of Jin actually sent a reply post and invited my aunt to go to the palace for a while." ”

Chen's eyebrows were frowning, but he didn't say much because Zhen was in front of him.

Zhen was also able to observe the face, seeing that Chen's face was unhappy, she didn't delay much, and after a few polite words, she said goodbye and left, and when she got into the ox cart, her joy finally couldn't help but fly up her eyebrows.

After that instigation, the next day Zhen went to see Mrs. Mao again, and presented the plan of the husband and wife, Mrs. Mao really did not blame her for her ineffective work in the Jin Wangfu last time, according to her husband, he also succeeded in convincing Mao Fuyin, and the next thing depends on the Chen family's efforts.

When the New Year is celebrated, relatives and friends walk around, and of course several children of the Chen family will come to visit their aunt, and the matter of lobbying the Chen family to help the Taiyuan Liu family stand on their feet has actually been carried out.

Taiyuan clan to Liu, Meng, Zhen, Zhu as the head, the Chen family was not more prominent than the four major families, nearly 30 years, the clan has not a single official worship center, these ten years, even the Jinshi is difficult to come out of the last one, it is really declining, but the Chen woman in the name of virtuous and chaste, once even got the Mingzong praise, Chen women are not lacking in marrying into the world's high-ranking people, so with the help of these in-laws, the Chen family can occupy a place in the second-rate family.

At present, the Jinyang Chen family, only Chen Junjun's maternal brother is holding the position of assassin history, which is the most important position in a class, but Chen Tingshi's eldest son has not been admitted to the Jinshi examination for many years, and he has to transfer to the Ming Jing, which is already in his thirties, and he has just been born, and he has not yet been officially conferred, not to mention Chen Junjun's other nephews, which are even more poor.

Because of Mao Wei's explanation, when he visited his aunt this time, he played with his lips and tongues: "Although Aya is the assassin of Raozhou, he suffers from no one in the court, and after this term, I don't know if he will be free, if Aya can't go further, the children of the family will have a more difficult career in the future, and it is not easy, we have won the attention of Mao Fu Yin, if Mao Fu Yin can carry a few points, Aya is expected to be promoted to Beijing, my aunt can not be confused, although Princess Jin was born in Jing Zhaoliu, but she is a woman in the back house, It is because of the rhetoric that she won the love of the Queen Mother, for the major affairs of governance, where can she compare with Mao Fuyin and other important ministers in the court? His Royal Highness the King of Jin is a person who does not learn and has no skills, so he can't count on it, Xue Shaoyin proposed that the new system can hurt the interests of all the clans in Taiyuan Mansion, and there may be a lot of chaos, if Taiyuan Liu is involved...... I'm afraid that Qingcheng will also be affected. ”

Although the Chen family abides by the rules of etiquette and settles in the inner house, and never points fingers at foreign affairs, but the matter of the new policy is related to the interests of the Liu and Chen clans, and at this time, I heard that even the eldest son Qingcheng, who has a bright future, will be affected, and he is inevitably anxious.

However, this time I heard that Mrs. Zhen actually took the lead in dealing with Princess Jin on her own initiative, and it seemed that she had plans to meddle in family affairs, so she was a little panicked, and as soon as Zhen left, she couldn't help but complain about her daughter-in-law: "You don't know anything about these two things, if it weren't for Qingyun's daughter-in-law to come and inform you, we would still hide it in the dark, sister-in-law is really, she is not in good health, she has been bedridden for so many years, and she doesn't even know much about clan affairs, and where do you know these powers, just looking at Jing Zhaoliu's current power, and the status of Princess Jin is noble, so she rushed to flatter and flatter, As everyone knows, this will bring much disaster to Taiyuan Liu. ”

Where can I still sit still, and I hurriedly rushed to see Mrs. Zhen.

Although several old brothers of Liu Ren's generation have been separated, but Chen's husband Liu Ling because he was born with Liu Ren's mother, so the two families actually live next to the wall, ordinary people don't even need to go through the gate, walk through a corner door and then pass through a flower garden, Chen wants to go to the long house, even the car and can not be prepared, sit on the shoulder and pass, the long room many servants and maids have always been respectful to this de facto clan woman, put it in the past, is to Mrs. Zhen's residence, and there is no need to pass it on, but today Chen was stopped by a steward servant.

"Princess Jin sent a medical officer, who is consulting her wife, and asks the prince to wait for a while."

The medical officers of the Jin Palace's Mansion actually came to the door in a big way?! Chen only felt a sudden surge of anger in his heart, and saw Mrs. Zhen's eldest daughter-in-law Jiang come forward with a smile, so she didn't care about the idleness, and stretched her face and said: "Qingju is an official outside, and you are left in Jinyang, just to honor Aunt Weng, you know that your sister-in-law is not in good health, and you don't persuade your sister-in-law to recuperate, but you have to be tired and busy by your sister-in-law, after this toss, if your sister-in-law aggravates her condition, isn't it that your daughter-in-law is not filial?!" In addition, how can the medical officer be allowed to enter the room to consult the sister-in-law, and spread the word, the sister-in-law's reputation is dirty, and it is a shame for the Taiyuan Liuqi clan! ”
