Shen Tingjun's departure seemed to take away all of Sang Zhuyue's heart.

She once again regained her previous lazy appearance, and the most common thing she did every day was to sit under the window and "read." , the whole person seems to stay at home, but the soul doesn't know where to fly.

Sang's father and Sang's mother were not worried when they saw this.

They were even more worried that Shen Tingjun would not be able to say goodbye to the Wu'anhou couple in the capital, and they could not let them gladly agree to Shen Tingjun's family affair with his daughter, and in the end, his daughter's expectations would be in vain.

Really, the two of them hope that this thing can be done, but they are also afraid that it will come true. For this reason, he is worried and frowning every day, as if he is more worried than Sang Xuanyue.

On the evening of this day, Sang's mother couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, so she reached out and pushed Sang's father beside her.

Father Sang immediately responded: "What, can't you sleep yet?" ”

Father Sang didn't fall asleep either.

In fact, since Shen Tingjun returned to the capital, his heart has been raised. It is not obvious during the day, but at night, he can't open his eyes that are obviously sleepy, and as soon as he lies on the bed, the whole person is ruthless. I can't control the thoughts in my head, and I just can't sleep.

Father Sang got up and put on his clothes, and by the way, he brought a cup of warm water and handed it to Mother Sang. When Sang Mu is upset and irritable, she will have an internal fire, and her mouth will be dry.

The two old husbands and wives have been together for half a lifetime, and Father Sang knows this very well. Therefore, the room is always prepared with tea for the fire. Especially these days, these teas have not stopped. Otherwise, the bubbles on Sang Mu's mouth would have risen.

Sang Mu drank some water and lay back in the futon.

Sang's mother couldn't sleep, so she couldn't help but ask Sang's father: "Do you think that can be done?" ”

Father Sang naturally hoped that things would come to fruition, but if things didn't work out......

That's nothing. When the ancestors of the family did that thing, they didn't think that they could get any reward from the imperial court. I do it purely because of personal interest. It's just that the more time I do, the more the "picture" becomes more and more substantial, and the thing becomes more valuable, and I dare not show it to others when I am free.

But no matter how valuable it is, it is of little use to them, and it can only be a waste in their hands. On the contrary, it was the "picture" that came into the hands of the imperial court, and it might be of great use.

Speaking of the "picture", it is not something else, but a map of the distribution of minerals in the territory that the Sang family has been painting for generations.

Because most of the ancestors of the Sang family were uninhibited, they were unwilling to be constrained by officialdom, but preferred to travel in the mountains and rivers, be booksellers and open bookstores.

In this kind of comfortable days, the footprints of the Sang family ancestors gradually spread across most of the Qin Dynasty. At that time, it was not the Qin Dynasty, and it would be more accurate to say that it was the previous dynasty.

In the end, the ancestors of the Sang family also discovered an iron ore vein by mistake, but at that time, the court was turbulent, the eunuchs in the court were in power, the people were struggling to make a living, and natural and man-made disasters continued.

In view of this, the Sang family naturally did not dare to tell the news of the minerals. I am afraid that I will annoy a certain force and be retaliated against.

Because he found the first mineral, after the ancestors of the family were curious, he walked through the places written in the ancient books, and the rest of the places that seemed to have minerals or minerals. Sure enough, mineral sources such as silver ore and aluminum ore were discovered.

In this way, the ancestor's interest grew, and the drawings were filled with more and more abundant.

This protracted affair gradually developed into a family business. After that, when all the heads of the family go out to meet friends, play or go to a feast, they will go to the neighborhood to find out. As a result, the drawings are even richer.

And as the contents of the pictures were filled with more and more, the preciousness of this thing gradually became inmeasurable by gold and silver.

The Sang family also felt that things were hot and wanted to hand them over.

But first, there is no way, and second, they always think that there are always places in this country that they have not yet traveled. Hopefully, when they visit all the places, they will be able to find more minerals...... It is with this kind of "perfection" and "perfection" mentality that this mineral map has been left in Sangfu and has not been handed over.

But in the past two years, Sang's father's heart has become heavier and heavier.

First, it is natural to come because it is the Ming Jun today, and now the four seas are leveling, and the Haiyan River is clear, which is suitable for digging ore veins and greatly improving the national strength; Second, isn't this the moon joining the army and embarking on a career in office?

No matter how parents do not envy their rights, their children are also their weakness.

The Sang family has no backer in the officialdom, but Sang Father doesn't want his son to have too hard a career in the official career, so Father Sang thinks that if he hands over this thing, he may be able to get the good above.

He is a businessman, and the court doesn't care if he is rewarded or not.

But if the court remembers the moon because of this, will the son's road to the ascension be smoother?

The son is killing the enemy outside, if it is for the sake of their Sang family's meritorious face to the court, can they not let their son do those things that are too dangerous?

It's a pity that this drawing hasn't been handed in yet, and the bastard boy in Fuyue has found a good daughter-in-law for himself. And the daughter-in-law's maiden family is very powerful, and her father is even the commander of the Minzhou Navy who controls the power of a naval army.

At this time, it seems that it is unnecessary to hand in this drawing because of the moon.

Sang's father was still hesitating, whether to hand it over or not, should he discuss it with his son and let the Chang family hand it over on his behalf......

Who knows, there is Shen Tingjun and the twisting thing again.

It was also because of this incident that Father Sang's original hesitant mind suddenly became firm.

The mineral map must be handed over, even if it is for the sake of the daughter.

Although they are not optimistic about Shen Tongjuan and their daughter's family affairs, what if?

To tell the truth, Shen Tingjun is such a wishful son-in-law, he really looked around the whole Daqin with a lantern, and he could only find such one.

If they don't have fate, now the two are fateful, but because of their humble family background, there are all kinds of difficulties in this matter.

Then he will smooth out this difficulty and let the two match.

Father Sang said softly: "The ancestor didn't want to exchange that mineral map for benefits, but if we can make our family profit from this drawing, and make the family affair between Screw and Shen Tong become logical, I want to come to the ancestor is also willing." They must also want to screw it well, hoping that her wish will come true. In this way, what they did before can be regarded as a blessing for future generations. ”

Mulberry's father babbled about these things and didn't, but Mulberry's mother didn't speak, but just listened to him quietly.

She knew that Father Sang's mood should be complicated and ruthless at this time.

The ancestors of the Sang family were all casual and arbitrary people who did not admire rights. They are not interested in being a ruler, and they despise those false fame and fortune. But now for the sake of his children, the husband has to calculate the benefits that the court may give. This is contrary to his usual conduct in the world, and even more contrary to his own nature, and therefore, the husband is definitely in a bad mood now.

But children are debts owed by their parents in their previous lives.

What about the parents who endure the marriage of their children and are full of sorrow?

Sang's mother gently stroked Sang's father's chest and whispered, "We've done our best, so don't think about it anymore." The family affairs of Shen Tong and Shen Tong only depend on their lives. ”

Father Sang said, "We've come here, we've already walked half the way. I just want to contribute to this again, and I don't know where to use it. After that, I'll leave it to Shen Tong for judgment. He said that he could convince his parents, so let's wait for Wu'anhou and his wife to come to Jinju. If they come, let us marry with joy. If you don't come...... Let's just assume that there is no such thing. ”

Sang Mu replied with a low "yes".

The smell of the New Year is getting heavier and heavier, and the mulberry mother is getting busier and busier.

In the past few years, because Qing'er is young, Sang's mother has to spend a lot of energy on him, and Sangyue can't see that his mother is too hard, so he gradually takes over most of the affairs of the house, so that his mother can have more time to rest.

And this year, Sang Xuanyue was obviously a little absent-minded, and Sang's mother couldn't bear to work her daughter, and she also thought that her daughter couldn't stay at home for two years, so she wanted her daughter to be relaxed. Therefore, she took over all the affairs of these festivals again, and was busy all day long.

Sang Xuan didn't find out about this at the beginning of the month, but every time he went to ask his mother for peace, he saw a lot of stewards around his mother. She realized later that the New Year was over, and the family was busy again.

Look at my mother's voice a little hoarse because she arranged too many things. She kept drinking throat tea, but the situation did not improve in the slightest. Looking at the tiredness on her mother's face and a few silver threads on her head, Sang Xuanyue suddenly felt guilty and distressed in her heart.

These days, her heart is full of Shen Tingjun, but she can't even remember what her parents looked like. She is so unfilial, let her weak mother insist on supporting her sick body to deal with these miscellaneous things, is she really worthy of being a daughter?

Sang Xuanyue's mind suddenly cleared up, and then she cheered up and coaxed her mother to rest, while she herself was as busy as a spinning top, opening up all the things she could handle inside and outside the mansion.

Sang's mother was naturally distressed when she saw that her daughter was so busy that her feet did not touch the ground. She wants to help her daughter and share some of the burden for her. But Father Sang said: "I think it's much better to be busy, so it's better to let her be busy." ”

He also said, "It's better for people to be busy, but when they're busy, they won't have time to think about those messy things, and they won't have time to hurt the spring and autumn and fall in love." ”

When Sang's mother heard this, this was indeed the truth, and because of this, even though she felt sorry for her daughter's tiredness, she was ruthless and didn't help her daughter anymore.

In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve.

Sang Fuyue was not at home, and the Sang family of four celebrated the New Year.

Fortunately, this year, Qing'er is a little bigger than before, and her mouth is sharper. The little guy doesn't talk much in front of outsiders, but in front of his closest relatives, he is like a little talker, chattering non-stop.

Sang's father and mother were very happy about this, and Sang Xuanyue also liked something. The three adults teased Qing'er to talk and have fun, and this Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was quite happy.

Wait until the night is over, and then go back to your room to rest.

Sang twisted the moon and touched the purse placed under the pillow, wanting to take it out and look at it, but finally stuffed it back.

In the purse is a mutton fat jade pendant, which is carved with a unicorn beast. The jade is transparent and moist, and the touch is warm and smooth.

This is the one that Shen Tingjun has always worn on his waist, because whenever he goes out, he always hangs this jade pendant on his waist, and Jinzhou even spreads the saying "Seeing jade is like seeing people".

In the days when Shen Tingjun left, Sang Twisting Moon always had to hold this jade pendant at night to fall asleep. But she was worried that she wouldn't sleep well, and she would get the jade pendant to the ground and break it in the middle of the night.

For this reason, she carefully braided a red rope, put this jade pendant on, and wore it around her neck.

But I was worried that Yu Pei would run out of her collar during the day and be seen by her father, and she said that she shouldn't accept things from foreign men.

In short, under all kinds of difficulties, Sang Xuanyue only took out the jade pendant and put it on when there was no one at night; And when she gets up early in the morning, she will take off the jade pendant in a precious way, put it in her purse, and stuff it under the pillow.

She didn't take out the jade pendant to wear it that night, because her overheated mind finally cooled down.

Once again, she solemnly and carefully thought about the future of her and Shen Tingjun.

He told her to wait for her, and prepare for marriage at home with peace of mind, saying that he would clear all obstacles. But is it really that simple?

He is the son of the Marquis of Wu'an and the next heir of the Marquis of Wu'an.

The Hou Ye and Mrs. Hou of the Hou Mansion, can they let him be so nonsense and joke about his life events?

Sang Xuanyue didn't know, his eyes became dazed, and even the beating heart didn't seem to be noisy and noisy in the past, but became quiet and quiet.

Sang Xuanyue and Sang's father and Sang's mother don't need to say their thoughts, only that Shen Tingjun, who was far away in the capital at this time, was a little drunk at this time because he drank a few more glasses.

Shen Tingyi and Shen Tinglan saw that the eldest brother was drunk, and actively wanted to personally send the eldest brother back to the courtyard to rest.

Shen Tingjun did not refute the kindness of the two younger brothers, but he did not let them support him, and the three brothers walked towards the Songbai Courtyard together.

On the way to Songbai Courtyard, Shen Tinglan couldn't help but be curious, and finally asked Shen Tingjun: "Does the eldest brother really have a favorite girl?" Is it a girl from Jinju or a girl from Beijing? You are not young, if the other party's family background and appearance and talent are worthy of the eldest brother, this family business should be opened up quickly. ”

Shen Tingyi also said: "It's time for the eldest brother to get married." The elder brother of the Liang family, Xu Shizi of the Marquis of Xinchang, and Wei Shizi and the county lord of Changrong of the Chengen Mansion, those of you who were used as companions for the prince in the palace have all become families. Only the eldest brother is still single. ”

Shen Tingjun chuckled when he heard this, and said casually: "The good thing of the eldest brother is also near, but the woman is a little younger, and I am afraid that it will take two years to hold the beauty." In this way, the second brother will have to wait patiently for another two years. ”

Nowadays, marriages are all in order of family, Shen Tingjun is the eldest brother, if his family affairs cannot be decided for a long time, then Shen Tingyi and Shen Tinglan under him have to wait patiently. When Shen Tingjun marries a wife and becomes a relative, the mansion can handle their family affairs.

Shen Tingjun's family affair has not yet been scored, but Shen Tingyi's family affair was decided two years ago. And he is over the crown, and the woman is also eighteen years old, so it is said that she can get married. But because there is a single eldest brother above, this family affair will have to wait for another two years.

I promise it's over this Monday, I promise!
