The next morning, sure enough, someone came to visit Shen Hongjun, and Shen Hongjun greeted those people in the front yard, and set up a banquet to entertain those people at noon.

The Yunxue sisters were idle, so they played with Yun Zhen in the backyard. Yun Zhen led the boys in the yard to have a snowball fight together, and Yun Xue and the others watched from the side, clapping their hands from time to time. Xiao Yunxia was so excited that she was jumping and jumping there, "Second brother, hit him hard, hurry up." She shouted at Yun Zhen.

Yun Xue was also very happy when she looked at these children who were playing crazy. It's all a group of children, who are supposed to be playful, but they are all sensible and considerate, and they help the family work every day, and it's really hard for them. "If my father and mother were still here, I would be happy to see them having so much fun." Yun Xue sighed.

"Yes, if my father and mother were still here, I would be very happy to see us all grown up. It's just a pity that they can't see it. Eldest sister, you see that Yunxia is four years old, in that situation, we were all worried, what if we can't survive? Unexpectedly, Yunxia not only fed, but also grew so well. This is all the credit of the eldest sister, and we will never forget it. Yunni also gave birth to infinite emotion.

"What are you talking about, I'm your eldest sister, and these are what I should do. I just hope that you are all safe and sound, and I can be regarded as living up to my father's expectations. Yun Xue shook her head and shook off the sadness in her heart.

Yun Zhen was already covered with snow at this time, and the boys who had a snowball fight with them were even more embarrassed. When Yun Xue saw it, she hurriedly shouted to stop, "Okay, let's stop, look at you one by one, the snow at one end." Hurry back to the house and clean up, dry your clothes, and watch out for a cold. ”

Compared to the children in the backyard, the front yard is a different scene. Shen Hongjun prepared a banquet, and invited a singer to entertain the state officials who came to visit.

"The lower officials and others took the liberty to visit, but instead of blaming, the general gave them a warm welcome, which made the lower officials and others ashamed." Lord Zhizhou Tong smiled all over his face, and first made amends.

"What do you say, Lord Tong, General Ben is here this time, and he still needs the help of adults. When an adult came to visit, Shen greeted him, where is there such a thing as blame? Shen Hongjun smiled slightly, "Come, my lords, Shen Mou respects you." This place is just a place where Shen rests by chance, it is very simple, and I hope you don't dislike the light drink, please drink this cup full. So saying, he drank the wine first.

Officialdom has always been just talking about people and talking about ghosts. Although Shen Hongjun is young, he has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he is naturally experienced in this, and he will never go wrong. For a while, everyone in the room was smiling, and there was a burst of high-minded talk, but it was very lively.

At this time, Shen Liang and the others were naturally outside to talk to the entourage of those officials. Some of them inquired about the things in the other courtyard. Shen Liang has been following Shen Hongjun for many years, and when it comes to dealing with people, he is even more leaky, where will people inquire about it?

One of the attendants saw the situation and knew that it would not be enough, so he excused himself by going to the toilet and went out. This man was quite clever, so he casually found a boy from the yard to lead the way, and then gave this kid some loose silver.

In this courtyard, in fact, Shen Hongjun has only come three or two times, and there is only a housekeeper staring at him on weekdays. The subordinates inside were not from the Shen family, but were all bought locally later. So these people are not very familiar with some rules. Seeing someone rewarding, the boss of the little guy is so happy that he will naturally answer whatever people ask.

The man inquired for a long time, and finally figured out who lived in the backyard, and then gave the little man a piece of silver, and then went back to the house.

The banquet in the front yard was not over until the end of the day, and the officials had left. Shen Hongjun drank a little too much, and leaned back on the chair with his head propped up.

"Childe, why are you bothering to accompany them here? With your identity, being willing to see them is already a big face. Shen Liang sent the guests away, and when he entered the house, he saw the situation in front of him, and hurriedly helped Shen Hongjun back to the bedroom.

"There are so many of us coming, and people eat and feed the horses, don't we all have to come out? No matter how tired I am of these people, I have to maintain them on the surface. Otherwise, these people will play tricks behind their backs, and our soldiers will suffer. Shen Hongjun shook his head and said.

After all, the north does not need the south, and in winter, the army naturally cannot live in tents, but must live in houses. This can only be arranged with the cooperation of local officials, so Shen Hongjun is willing to give face to these people.

"This time, we came here, in addition to clearing out bandits, we also want to garrison this place to prevent the other side of the river from coming to make trouble again. I'm afraid we will have to stay here for a long time, and we must make friends with these people, otherwise once the supply of food and grass is insufficient, it will be delayed. Shen Hongjun staggered back to his room, "I'll sleep, you don't need to call me for dinner." You go to the back and talk to Miss Han and them, just say let them feel free tonight. ”

After Shen Hongjun finished speaking, he fell asleep while lying on the kang. Shen Liang hurriedly found the quilt, covered Shen Hongjun, and then instructed a few small people outside to be careful.

On this day, everyone did nothing, and it just passed.

On the morning of the fifteenth, Shen Hongjun got up refreshed, and after cleaning up, he was about to go to find Yunxue.

At this time, Shen Zhong came in from outside, "Childe, the families of several state officials came outside, saying that they came to visit Miss Han." You see, what to do? Shen Zhong handed the post in his hand to Shen Hongjun.

Shen Hongjun frowned, "Where did they find out that Xue'er is here?" It's really pervasive. It's okay for them to meet Yunxue, and they won't give up. Moreover, Yun Xue should slowly learn to contact these people. Although the name is not justified now, but because of this, there is no need to care about any rules and regulations, no matter how good your love is. ”

After thinking about it, Shen Hongjun felt that it was more appropriate to go and talk to Yun Xue by himself. So he led Shen Zhong to the backyard to find Yun Xue.

"What? You said that the dependents of some officials are coming to see me? Why? I'm just a peasant girl, maybe they're all Mrs. Fate, and they've come to see me? After listening to Shen Hongjun's words, Yun Xue felt a little inexplicable.

"They want to show me favor through you. So you don't have to care about anything, just put the shelves high and talk to them casually. Shen Hongjun said with a smile. You will be my wife, husband and wife, you will have to help me hold these people. ”

Yun Xue can't help it, she actually understands many things. Shen Hongjun brought a large army here, and everything such as eating and drinking had to be done with the cooperation of local officials, so he must not offend these local officials. And these people want to climb up to Shen Hongjun, and they will have a care in the capital in the future, so they work harder to please.

"Officials protect each other." Yun Xue muttered, and then asked, "Then where do I meet them?" ”

"It's in the living room of Liuyun Pavilion, you don't need to talk too much nonsense to them, just let them come in and sit down and have a cup of tea." Shen Hongjun saw that Yun Xue did not refuse, he was in a good mood and smiled like a fox.

Yun Xue nodded, and then asked Rulan to go to the front to greet the guests on her behalf, and asked Rumei Ruju to prepare tea and snacks, etc., and she sat in the living room and waited.

Shen Hongjun is a man, and when a female family member visits, he is naturally not good to be present. So he went to Yun Zhen and their side to discuss the matter of suppressing bandits with Yun Zhen.

Yun Xue was sitting in the living room and heard the sound of Ruju's voice at the door, so she stood up and walked a few steps outside. At this time, Rulan led a few ladies to come in from outside, and Yun Xue stepped forward in a few steps. "When the distinguished guests came, they did not come far to greet them, but the little woman was rude."

The four or five women who came in were of different ages, the oldest looked to be forty years old, and the youngest was probably about twenty-five or sixteen years old. They are all gorgeously dressed, full of pearls, and the whole body is magnificent. There are also two girls around each person, both of whom are also good-looking and gorgeously dressed.

"Ladies, please take a seat." Yun Xue smiled and gave everyone to their seats. The key is that these women on the other side are all the wives of officials, and if they don't have orders on their bodies, Yun Xue really doesn't dare to let these people salute her. Although Shen Hongjun said that he wanted to put up the shelf, he couldn't go over the line. She didn't salute these people, but she couldn't let the family salute her, so she took the lead and arranged for everyone to sit down.

Several women looked at Yun Xue carefully at this time, and couldn't help but be surprised. The woman opposite, about sixteen or seventeen years old, was tall, slender, with a goose egg face, long eyebrows and sideburns, plump red lips, and a pair of almond eyes, clear and bright, with a bit of majesty. The corners of the eyebrows and eyes have a little fortitude that does not belong to women, but it makes the whole person more and more heroic.

Although this woman's clothes are very ordinary, she doesn't even have pearls on her head, and she can't catch up with the girls around them. However, the momentum of this body is no worse than that of these officials and wives, but it makes a room full of jewels, which makes this woman feel refreshing and elegant, and her temperament is refined.

Among the women, the eldest couldn't help but nod secretly. If it weren't for such a unique woman, it would be difficult to fall into the eyes of General Zhaowu. "It's me who is presumptuous, but I heard that my sister is here, so I thought about coming over to meet me, and I hope that my sister Haihan is." At this time, Mrs. Tong was glad that she came in person, and did not let the concubines and aunts in the family come over. In that case, you will offend people.

Yun Xue looked at the woman who spoke, just now Shen Hongjun took the post and told her something. The person in front of him should be the wife of Lord Tong, Huang. "What did Mrs. Tong say? The little girl came to the state city for the first time, and she was not familiar with the places, so she did not visit the ladies' house, and I hope that the ladies will not blame her. ”
