Shen Tingyi and Shen Tinglan felt that this was a big deal when they saw the old lady's frowning and drooping eyelids. I heard the eldest brother kneeling in the ancestral hall again...... Then it's even bigger.

You know, the eldest brother is the mother's heart. To put it mildly, it is really the children and grandchildren of the mansion combined, they are not as good as a big brother, and their status in the mother's mind is important.

But the eldest brother with such a face, after returning from home for more than 20 days, he was greeted not by his mother's shush and warmth, but by being punished to kneel in the ancestral hall......

Shen Tinglan didn't dare to say anything, let alone plead with his eldest brother without knowing it. He obediently responded, then glanced at the second brother, and hurriedly went to the ancestral hall to find the eldest brother.

Along the way, Shen Tinglan was wondering what the eldest brother had offended his mother for. Shure, he thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but pause in place.

Originally, he was the only one in the family who knew that the eldest brother was going to marry Cousin Sang. He is the only one who knows that Cousin Sang is pregnant.

Before the eldest brother went far away, he didn't care, he just thought that the eldest brother was assigned by His Majesty to go out on an errand.

It also happened that just before the eldest brother left Beijing, there was some rumors about Prince Rong's embezzlement of disaster relief funds. It's because he always thought that the eldest brother was going to picket the officials who drank soup below.

But what if the eldest brother didn't go on an errand this time, but went to visit his cousin?

At the time of such a big case, it is possible to let the eldest brother leave Beijing for so long, I can't say, it should be the day of my cousin's birth, right?

Thinking that Cousin Sang gave birth to the eldest brother's child, Shen Tinglan's already slightly frowning brows couldn't help but jump hard and wrinkle tightly.

He couldn't tell what it was like, he just felt empty in his heart. It seems that there is something that originally belonged to him, and it has nothing to do with him anymore.

Thinking of my cousin's birth, and then thinking of my eldest brother having an heir, I will definitely not tell my mother. The mother was so angry that she even drove the eldest brother to kneel in the ancestral hall, which seemed to make sense.

Shen Tinglan walked to the ancestral hall like a wandering spirit, and really saw that the eldest brother was still kneeling upright. He shouted "big brother", and then said, "Mother asked you to go over." ”

Shen Tingjun replied and slowly stood up straight.

After kneeling all night, my knees were a little numb and painful, and as soon as I poked out my feet, I couldn't walk.

Shen Tingjun slowed down, and put another stick of incense on the ancestors, and then turned around and left with Shen Tinglan.

On the way, neither of the brothers spoke, but in the end, Shen Tinglan couldn't help but be curious, and opened his mouth first, "Has Cousin Sang already given birth?" ”

Shen Tingjun "um" for another life, and then said, "I have a son, and the mother and son are safe." ”

Shen Tinglan breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart sank to the bottom. He forced a smile and said hello to his eldest brother, "Congratulations to eldest brother." ”

Shen Tingjun glanced at him sideways, and the smile on Shen Tinglan's face almost didn't hold.

The brothers didn't walk quickly, but they approached, and soon saw the Heyan Hall close at hand.

Shen Tinglan finally called the eldest brother again and asked the question that had been held in his heart for a long time. “…… When is the eldest brother going to marry Cousin Sang? ”

Shen Tingjun looked over, and Shen Tinglan lowered his head slightly. "I told my eldest brother before that I would let my eldest brother relax the deadline, and let me think about Zhou's stay again. In the past few months, I have thought a lot about it, and I have also carefully observed what Zhou has done......"

Shen Tingjun said almost firmly: "You want to keep the Zhou family." ”

Shen Tinglan seemed to have no face to see his eldest brother, his head hung lower, and he was even more depressed. "I know that Zhou's thousand is not good, ten thousand is not good, but she is really attentive to Rong An. I thought about it carefully, if I reconcile with the Zhou family, it is impossible for my mother not to let me remarry, and when I welcome the newlyweds into the door, what should Rong'an do? ”

As soon as he thought of his son Yin Yin's appearance of calling his mother, he felt heartbroken. And if it is possible, how can he be willing to let his son be at a young age, and he will not have his mother to take care of him?

Zhou's is not good, but if he knows it with emotion, moves with reason, and tells her all the stakes, he thinks Zhou's will change somewhat. It is said that he teaches his son in front of the hall and his wife on the pillow, Zhou's has this character, he only cares about dislike as a husband, but he doesn't want to persuade her more and let her correct it, then his husband is also unqualified.

After all, he has to try hard, otherwise, he will be a little unwilling to break up this family like this.

Shen Tinglan's thoughts were not spoken, but the look on his face brought out a little.

Shen Tingjun understood everything about him, so he looked at his gaze and felt a little more pity.

He spoke, "San Lang, don't say something too early, maybe you will change your mind later...... Your mind is good, but it also depends on whether the Zhou family is worth it. ”

Shen Tingjun looked in the direction of Heyantang, and said in a distant voice: "Li Cheng came back from Huizhou a few days ago, and he brought some news, you may be interested in knowing." ”

Shen Tinglan didn't know who Li Cheng was, but if he thought about it, he could know that this should be the eldest brother's right-hand man. Although I don't know what news Li Cheng brought from Huizhou, and what secret things he discovered. But since the eldest brother specifically pointed out "whether the Zhou family is worth it", then I think that the matter is related to the Zhou family, and the Zhou family, I am afraid that he has done a lot of evil.

Shen Tinglan's heart fell straight to the bottom, and he stalked his throat, and only after a long time did he reply with one word, "Okay." ”

The brothers entered the Heyan Hall in silence, the old lady was having breakfast at the moment, and Shen Tingyi was sitting next to him drinking tea.

The two greeted each other, and waited patiently for the old lady to finish breakfast, and then everyone moved to the flower hall.

The old lady opened her mouth and called to Dalang, "Do you know that you are wrong?" ”

Shen Tingjun bowed his head and said, "The child has already reflected on it and knows that he is wrong." In the matter of the Sang family, I did have a lot of outrageous and inappropriate, I owed her, and I treated her slowly. ”

The old lady breathed a sigh of relief visibly with the naked eye, "You don't have to worry about anything from childhood to adulthood, and your mother is even more proud of you, but you are very wrong in this matter." Fortunately, the child doesn't care about you, and is willing to give birth to the child...... Since you know that you have done her wrong, you will treat her more kindly. ”

"The child knows."

The mother and son were talking as if no one was talking, but the two people sitting next to them were silent together.

Shen Tinglan had already known about the relationship between the eldest brother and Cousin Sang, so he was not surprised. And Shen Tingyi was simply shocked and had lost his language ability for a short time.

If Shen Tingyi hadn't reacted to the "Sang family" when the eldest brother mentioned "Sang's" before, what kind of person was this, then when the old woman mentioned "twisting the moon" - no matter how forgetful Shen Tingyi was, he quickly remembered the person Sang Twisting the moon. When he heard about giving birth to a child or something, Shen Tingyi's hands trembled, and he couldn't breathe.

So, if he expected it to be true, it should be like this...... The eldest brother will have an affair with the daughter of the Nasang clan due to fate, and eighty percent of them are coerced and seduced by the eldest brother. And the woman is not to blame in the past, the child who was pregnant with the eldest brother not only did not beat the child, but also gave birth to the child!

Shen Tingyi was frightened, and trembled and picked up the tea next to him. He urgently needed a little more tea to suppress his horror now.

Shen Tingyi and Shen Tinglan were as quiet as chickens, and the old lady said Shen Tingjun, and then turned to Shen Tinglan, "San Lang." ”

"Mother, my son is here." Shen Tinglan looked at his mother who wanted to speak and stopped, but he actually had a premonition in his heart that his mother was going to say something. He was also mentally prepared, so he said, "Mother, if you have anything to say, just say it." I am your own son and know that you are the most impartial person. What you can say must be something you have thought it through. Speak, and the child listens to you. ”

The old lady sighed, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red.

Her San Lang is also really filial, but he insisted on marrying the Zhou family at the beginning.

Since he insisted on marrying, the sins created by the Zhou family, the two of them should pay it back together.

The old lady trembled and said, "San Lang, your eldest brother is going to marry a wife, the house is compact, and my mother is going to separate you from the Zhou family, what do you think?" ”

Shen Tinglan hadn't spoken yet, but it was Shen Tingyi, and he couldn't sit still at all.

The old lady deliberately let San Lang and the Zhou family move out, and specially named the eldest brother to marry a wife, so it is obvious that either San Lang and the Sang family have a discord, or the Zhou family and the Sang family are not on good terms.

It is impossible for San Lang and Sang to have a disagreement, after all, San Lang is also a humble gentleman, and he has no grudge against Sang, how can he offend Sang?

If it's not San Lang, then the designation is Zhou's.

Thinking of the Zhou family being sent to the family temple before, and not long ago, Cousin Sang, who had been living in the Hou Mansion, suddenly moved out of the Hou Mansion......

Stone hammered!

It was specified that Zhou did something sorry for Cousin Sang. Thinking of it again, Sang's inexplicably has a skin-to-skin relationship with his eldest brother...... It's hard to say, there are some things that really can't be said.

However, Cousin Sang couldn't afford to offend the Hou Mansion before, so she wanted to avoid it, but now the feng shui is in turn. Cousin Sang gave birth to the eldest brother's child, listening to that meaning, the eldest brother still wants to marry her, is it possible for the Sang family to endure the enemy after entering the door?

I already understood in my heart why the old lady made such an arrangement, and the old lady had already divided her own San Lang under the pretext of living in the house, so what was it for his son to stay in the house? If you want to divide it, you can divide it all, otherwise you will only divide San Lang out, and there may be many gossip outside.

Shen Tingyi stood up to speak, but the old lady waved his hand to let him continue to sit. Afraid that Shen Tingyi would be uncomfortable, the old lady also said, "Although you are not my own child, you are also raised by me." You've always been clumsy, but you know everything you know. The evil that the Zhou family did, I hid it from you husband and wife for the sake of San Lang's face, and I didn't tell you the truth, and now there is no need to say it. Only you should know in your heart that letting San Lang and his wife separate them is not that the house is really so cramped. ”

"Mother, the child knows." Shen Tingyi stood up and said, "It's just that you are still alive, and it is not like a single third brother to go out." The words of outsiders are already ugly, and the third brother is also a person who is on the path of officialdom, which is not good for his future. ”

"Then what's the solution, the sin he created himself, go back by himself."

Shen Tingyi knew that the old lady was angry, so he said, "Why don't you divide me too......"

Shen Tingjun didn't speak, but the old lady didn't follow. "Before the newcomer enters the door, he will separate you two brothers, and that ugly thing has to be said about the moon. Twisting the moon was already wronged, but she still brought the child into the door, so that she would be pointed at all the time. ”

What the old lady said was also the truth, and because of this, Shen Tingyi had to shut up and think hard.

But no matter how you do it, it doesn't work like this, and it doesn't work like that.

And so things came to an impasse.

It was Shen Tingjun who opened his mouth, and he advised his mother, "Don't worry, there may be other solutions to this matter." ”

The old lady asked him, "If you have something to say, just say it, don't sell it in front of your mother." A few of you are unconscious, my mother is really heartbroken for you. ”

"Yes, it's all children. You dissipate your anger and wait patiently, maybe after tonight, things will be different. ”

How could things have been different?

The old lady looked at her son suspiciously, and Shen Tingjun said firmly, "You believe me once." ”

"Then I'll believe you again?"

"Okay, my son will not disappoint my mother."

The three brothers dispersed like this, and when they walked out of the door, they ran into Shen Yuyao, who happened to come over.

Shen Yuyao's dress is showy, and people are also shy.

Shen Tingjun called out to his sister, who seemed to be very different today, and asked her, "What are you going to do with your appearance?" ”

"Oh, what can I do, big brother. At best, I'm just going out to my cousin for a walk. ”

Shen Tingjun frowned and looked at her, Shen Yuyao was shocked by the eldest brother's heartbeat, and hurriedly called her mother, while picking up her skirt and entering the flower hall to find the old lady.

The three brothers walked out together, and on the way, Shen Tingyi said that when Shen Tingjun was not at home, her mother arranged for Yao'er to see each other.

"Mother took Yao'er to Daxiangguo Temple a few days ago, and happened to meet the wife of the country's son who was supervising the sacrificial wine, and was taking the second son to pray for Buddha on the mountain."

The second son of the country's priest wine, this person was selected by Shen Tingjun to push his mother.

The young man was three years older than Yao'er, his appearance was middle-class, and the young man had a lively temperament, plus he was very knowledgeable, but he insisted on doing things. is also because his family is clean and his parents are sensible people, so Shen Tingjun chose him among many candidates, and asked his mother to take Yao'er over to see him.

Among the young masters and sons of the noble families in the capital, this young man can be regarded as outstanding, Yao'er can see it, and it seems that he has said it in the past.

That's the way it is, and the candidate was recommended by Shen Tingjun himself to his mother. But now that he sees his sister full of spring breeze, she seems to be going out on a date at any time, heh, he is going to find Lingwei to have a ghost, and he is designated to see Xu Shiheng.

Shen Tingjun, as an elder brother, suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Thinking of Xu Shiheng again, I feel that this young man is just mediocre in appearance, and his temperament is too lively, how do he and Yao'er live together? It's really a contradiction, let Yao'er coax him? Again, this person is too lively, I'm afraid that there are many ghosts, if he has something outside, and he comes home and wants to hide it from Yao'er, isn't it a concealment?
