What he said was even more sudden, and the attention of the whole family was attracted.

Liang Peng looked at the two cheap brothers and the cheap father beside him, and found that they were all waiting for him to speak, so he continued, "Father mentioned in the letter that the situation in Beijing and China is tense.

So my son felt a little regretful when he saw that the second and third younger brothers had already been named on the gold list but had never dared to become an official.

He felt that they shouldn't just waste their time like this, so the son thought of asking the second and third younger brothers to go out of Beijing to practice for two years.

Let's arrange a place that doesn't attract people's attention. After a few years, the situation in Beijing is stable, and the second and third younger brothers can return to Beijing.

At that time, it happened that they also had qualifications, and the rest could be arranged easily. "

Master Shi Hou pondered for a moment and said: "It's good to ask them to go out temporarily to avoid the limelight. But in this way, if the two saints have anything, it will all be directed at you."

"My son made all the noise before. It is reasonable to ask the two saints to come at me. Long before my son did anything, he thought that all the consequences would be borne by himself." Liang What Peng said was very righteous.

Lord Shi Hou is also very satisfied with his great son who is still so capable and responsible.

But he opened his mouth and said to his sons: "As far as I want, it's good to ask the second child to go out to avoid it. As for the third child, I think it's better to go to the Hanlin Academy. It's not bad to let him study for a few more years there."

After finishing speaking, he deliberately said to the third son Shi Ding: "Leave you in the capital, and ask you to enter the Imperial Academy. The main thing is that sentence, 'If you are not in the Imperial Academy, you will not enter the cabinet'.

In the future, both of your elder brothers will have titles, and although your own official career is supported by them, it still depends on your own ability.

So I still want you to stay in the Imperial Academy for two years.

If Beijing is not stable enough after two years, it will not be too late for you to go out again.

When the dust has settled by then, it's up to you to stay where you want.

As for asking the second child to take a post outside Beijing now, one is that he doesn't need to enter the Imperial Academy for qualifications.

Another one, it is impossible for the two of you brothers to enter the Hanlin Academy together.

In this way, both of you brothers will lie dormant first, so that you can avoid the limelight and not attract people's attention. "

Shi Nai and Shi Ding hurriedly stood up, saluted Master Shihou respectfully, and said, "It's still the old lady who is considerate, and the sons will obey the old lady's orders."

Seeing that the two sons had no objections, Lord Shihou said to Liang Peng again: "As for the boss, since you have returned to Beijing, what are your plans next?"

Liang Peng also replied without hesitation: "My son is planning to complain to Lord Long Live. He said that he was a little tired after being outside for more than a year, and his old illness almost relapsed. He needs to take care of him for a while."

This decision is really a bit beyond everyone's expectations, but it seems reasonable after thinking about it.

Master Shi Hou seemed to be able to understand and respect the elder son's decision, so he said: "That's fine, it just depends on whether Lord Long Live agrees."

Of course Emperor Yongzheng could agree, and he agreed very happily.

It's not that I heard that Shi Aiqing worked so hard because she was out of Beijing on a business trip that she almost caused her old illness to recur, and even specially rewarded her with a lot of medicinal materials and imperial physicians.

Both the father and son of the Shi family were sick and began to recuperate behind closed doors.Therefore, all kinds of entertainment outside, as well as people who came to visit, were all rejected.

Especially Ji Kanghou, the great historian, but the Lord Long Live personally ordered him to cultivate his body well.Therefore, those people really didn't dare to bother them very much.Most of them called the steward and gave some gifts to show their condolences.

Since it is to keep healthy, then you can't go out and run around more.In order not to be caught by others, it would be troublesome to sue another bully.

Therefore, Mrs. Xu Li, Mrs. Ji Kanghou, had to handle some necessary social activities on behalf of her husband.

There are actually not many officials who are acquainted with Liang Peng, but the two have only returned to Beijing not long ago, at least some old relatives and friends still have to visit.

Not to mention other places, Liang Peng's two cheap brothers did it for him.It's just that she was originally from Xu's natal family, so she always had to visit the door in person.

This time Xu Li sent the greeting card back to her natal home by herself, and after returning to Xu's home in a car, she was criticized by that cheap stepmother.

It is said that Xu Li's reputation of being jealous outside has spread from Jiangnan to Beijing, making others think that the girls in Xu's family are all jealous wives.He also said that she had ruined the reputation of the Xu family girl in this way, so she had to find a way to remedy it.

Xu Li just bowed her head and listened silently, but kept complaining in her heart.What is the remedy? Remedy, if I take the initiative to give him a few concubines, then I am not jealous.

Then those few cheap siblings were not idle, saying that Liang Peng would rather use his own merits to give his daughter a dignified status.So unwilling to pull out his relatives.

What does it mean to support one's own relatives? Even if we pull them out, we should pull up the two Shijia brothers first.Where will it be your cheap relatives' turn.

And those of you who are locked in the backyard every day, how do you know that it is not so easy to be an official.

We worked hard to get to a high position, and then in order to pull you out, the Emperor Yongzheng will be treated as a clique and dealt with.Or maybe he told Mr. Kangxi that he didn't like it, so he made trouble for him.

Who will help us then?

Although I have long thought that returning to my mother's house this time will not be easy, and I have made sufficient mental preparations.But Xu Li really couldn't help being a little impatient when faced with these embarrassments and censures from her stepmother and several younger siblings.

Since it made her feel unhappy, Xu Li said unceremoniously, "We appreciate Madam's kindness, but you don't have to worry about our master.

Whether our grandfather accepts a concubine is entirely up to him.

And my parents-in-law are also watching there, if I am really jealous, even my parents-in-law can't spare me.

So don't worry, I have never ruined the reputation of our Xu family.It's better not to listen to those rumors outside. "

The cheap stepmother choked, and then she turned to the two younger siblings and said, "Our master just loves our eldest sister.

After our master himself became Lord Marquis, he had already told Lord Long Live that he must make contributions to earn a living for our daughter.

This time, our Lord has made a great contribution again, and Long Live Lord is fulfilling his previous promise.

Our master was not really happy until the imperial decree came down.Our father said that he was reluctant to let his daughter be wronged in the future. "

These words blocked the mouths of these brothers and daughters-in-law again.

Xu Li, who felt that her fighting ability was very good, was still in a very happy mood after returning home.

Liang Peng looked at her and said with a smile: "You have succeeded in pissing off people again. I guess those people are no match for you now."

Xu Li also sighed and said: "It's not how powerful I am, but how soft those people are. They just saw your high status and dared not offend me severely.

It is one thing to find an opportunity to run on me casually.This made me go back to the past so unceremoniously, and they might be ashamed to compete with me seriously. "

The two of them were chatting nonsense, but Liang Peng still leaned on the kang and ate some lotus seeds in his hands.Xu Li sat in front of the dressing table by herself, trying to quickly pick off all the pearls and emeralds on her head.

With the help of the maid, she tied her hair in a simple bun again.

Looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground and holding a large copper basin in front of her, Xu Li couldn't help but miss the bathroom she renovated when she was in Gusu.

Seeing his wife's awkwardness, Liang Peng smiled at the side, and when he saw his wife staring at him, he hurriedly said, "Let's change the bathroom in the yard later. At least it's convenient for us to use. Save every day." You have to ask someone to come in with a basin."

"I have to say hello to the old man, the old lady, the second bedroom and the third bedroom about this matter. If anyone wants to change it, then we can change it together. It just so happens that we can also get a floor heater..."

The nagging mouth did not stop, but it did not delay Xu Li's grooming.After wiping her face with a handkerchief, she began to sit in front of the dressing table again, using the bottles and jars she made to smear her face one by one.

Liang Peng looked at those bottles and cans that he would never be able to distinguish clearly, and began to complain in his heart.This woman will never forget to tinker with that face at any time, look at the pile on the table, it is no less than what she uses at home.

But on the surface, he still acted like he was listening to his wife seriously, listening to her talk about how he fought against the heroes in his natal family today.

After Xu Li finally packed up, the couple came to the main courtyard together.I plan to have dinner with the old man and old lady, and then bring the two children back by the way.

The couple entered the upper house in the main courtyard and finished their salutes to Master Shihou and his wife.Xu Li found that the two children were eating fruit with them, so she went over to help the two children to eat.

When Master Shihou saw his daughter-in-law coming, he took his son out for dinner.

At this time, it was Mrs. Hou who said: "You have been away for more than a year, these two children are often taken by your aunt to their Rongguo Mansion to play, and sometimes they also live there for three to five days.

Don't forget to go to your aunt's place to have a look when you two have time together.

Among other things, the two children were under her care a lot there. "

Xu Li quickly agreed, but asked curiously: "Why did you remember that Brother Hao and Sister Yun lived there?"

"It's not that our family has few children. At that time, the second and third children were not born. I'm afraid that the two children will be lonely at home, thinking of your aunt who has a lot of grandchildren.

Let the two children take a long time to play in the past for two days, and they can also have a companion. "

Well, this is indeed for the good of the two children.Even though Xu Li was a little out of touch with the Rongguo Mansion, she couldn't say anything.

She was about to go to Rongguo Mansion to visit her aunt two days ago, but Xu Li heard Xiangyun's childish voice saying, "Go to Rongguo Mansion and play with Brother Ai."
