The Historian of the Red Chamber has a daughter

Everyone in the historian family was looking forward to it, but after Shi Nai was buried, there was still no news.Shi Wang's and Shi Wei's hearts gradually sank to the bottom, and their hearts were cold.There was no news from her natal family, and Shi Wang was so anxious that she wanted to find Shi Xiangyun for news. Shi Ziren tried to persuade him again and again, but he couldn't persuade him.

"Brother Ren, what are you stopping your mother from doing? It's about the succession of our family's title. You don't care. Is it wrong for your mother to care?" Shi Mi said angrily.

"Third Uncle!" Shi Ziren roared, "The succession of titles is a major matter for the imperial court. How can the eldest sister, a housewife, know this?"

"Big Brother is right. If you ask me about such a thing, Third Uncle is looking for the wrong person." While speaking, Shi Xiangyun walked in, "However, I just received a letter from Beijing, and there may be something you want to know. So I specially sent it to you." Shi Xiangyun took out a piece of letter paper from his sleeve and handed it out.

Shi Wei couldn't wait to take the paper over, and when he saw it carefully, Shi Wang's family also came up to it, and Shi Ziren stood aside with his hands down helplessly.

Shi Xiangyun smiled, smiled at Shi Ziren, and then went back. She asked someone to copy the letter paper again, so take it for them!

Shi Mi read the letter, fell down on the chair, and muttered to himself, "It's over, it's over! It's all over!"

Shi Wang had only glanced at it a few times, but never read the whole thing. Seeing Shi Wei like this, he was horrified, so he quickly grabbed the letter paper and read it carefully. After reading it, he also fell down on the ground in frustration, "How could Like this? How could it be like this?"

The letter fell to the ground, Shi Ziren picked it up, looked at it hastily, and said in the letter that someone sued Baolinghou Shi Nai in front of the Holy Majesty, accusing him of embezzlement, embezzlement of military expenses, and neglecting human life while in the southwest. Angry, because of the historian's past achievements and the death of Bowling Hou, he only took away Bowlinghou's title and did not pursue other people.

After reading it, Shi Ziren smiled, "That's good, the dust has settled, mother, can you feel at ease in the future? We can live in peace in the future."

Shi Wang couldn't stop crying, yes, the dust has settled, the title that the master has worked so hard for all his life, is finally gone.Shi Wang raised her head and wanted to say something, but she saw Shi Mi's face was ashen, as if she was mourning her concubine, and her heart suddenly became strangely balanced. Yes, the matter of her own family has been settled, but the third family's It's still an unknown number, the third child must be more sad than himself now!

This person, sometimes we have to compare. If a person is sad and sees someone who is sadder than himself, maybe he will feel much better.Shi Wang is like this now.Seeing that Shi Mi was even more sad than her, she felt a lot better.Yes, my family's affairs are a foregone conclusion. Fortunately, Brother Ren is an adult, and his homework has always been good. He has hired a famous teacher to teach him since he was a child. Just take advantage of these few years of filial piety to study his homework well. Maybe he can bring new homework to his family by then. hope.But the old three's family is different, the husband and wife are divorced, and Yi brother is young, what will happen in the future is really unknown.Thinking about it this way, he was much worse than his family.

Shi Wang's mood improved a lot, she wiped her tears with a handkerchief, "Brother Ren, since this is the case, the imperial decree may be coming in a few days, let Uncle Zhong and the others get ready!"

Shi Ziren nodded, "Don't worry, mother, I know." Seeing that Shi Yu was still there in a daze, Shi Ziren helped Shi Wang to go forward, "Don't worry, mother, after three years, I will definitely earn an order for my mother and come back. , in the future, we will not rely on anyone, I will rely on my own efforts to let you live a good life."

At this time, Shi Wang was like enlightened, her previous confused thoughts disappeared, she nodded, "Brother Ren, it was my mother who was confused in the past, and the things I stole were never my own, only obtained by my own ability It's yours. Brother Ren, from now on, our family will depend on you."

Shi Ziren nodded, "Mother, it's good if you can think about it. From now on, you just need to treat the eldest sister as usual. The eldest sister still has a good impression of us. As long as you maintain it with your heart, it will be useful in the future." , we don’t need our eldest sister to bother to support us, as long as she helps us when we are in trouble. Do you think so?”

Shi Wang nodded, "I know, it's just your sister, alas, she is still spoiled by me, she has to figure out a way to keep her going like this, in case she offends your elder sister one day, then What can I do?"

"Tomorrow, let's invite a foster mother for my younger sister. My younger sister really needs to be disciplined. The eldest aunt is not a good-natured person. If my younger sister continues to behave like this, even if she marries into her grandfather's house, she will not be able to live well in the future." It's easy." Shi Ziren said.

"Well, tell me, why don't we go to your elder sister? She should be able to help with such a small matter!" Shi Wang said.

"You can ask your eldest sister, she should agree." Shi Ziren nodded.

Shi Wang untied his knot, and regained his usual shrewdness, "Oh, I always feel sorry for your father. If I had known this, I might as well have told your eldest sister the truth earlier! In this case, your father can also Take it easy."

"It's all in the past, let's not talk about the past, what matters in the future." Shi Ziren said with a smile.

Shi Xiangyun soon found out about Shi Wang's change, and there was no other reason, because Gu Yu came back, "Didn't I ask you to stay at home for a few more days? Why did you come back so soon?"

Gu Yu approached with a smile, "My mother said that the girl is kind, so she let me go back and live for a while. But my mother said, let me come back to serve the girl quickly, and I can't be lazy."

"As soon as you came back, it became lively, and you know everything." Li Xia smiled and gave Shi Xiangyun a cup of tea, "But, girl, do you think the second wife really wants to understand?"

Shi Xiangyun smiled lightly, "Second Aunt has always been a very shrewd person, but she was just confused for a while before. In fact, it is strange, the Jia family is like this, and so is the Shi family. The man is confused, but the woman is very shrewd!"

Li Xia sighed: "I don't know what happened!"

Shi Xiangyun shook his head, "Most of the official families are like this. The yin in the inner house is prosperous and the yang is weak. Most of the men are raised in the hands of women. No matter how smart the women are, they are trapped in the inner house. Wisdom is also limited. Since men’s families are not good enough, they place more hope on women, so they spend a lot of effort to raise their daughters. Such a situation has been formed over time and in circles!”

Li Xia nodded, "Young lady is still smart. No wonder, these aristocratic families are getting worse day by day, but poor children come out in large numbers. However, I believe that the future children of the young lady will not be like this, the young lady is so smart!"

"My child?" Shi Xiangyun smiled, "It's so far away! Why do you think about it so much!" She had never been a mother in her previous life, so she really didn't know what it would be like to have a child.

"It's so far away, the girl is about to reach the age of Ji, and she should get married after she reaches the age of Ji. After all, the king of Anjun is not young. Speaking of which, we should also get ready. The girl's dowry, should I go to the Zhang family in Jiangnan to get it?" Are you back? Where did Nanny Wei keep the dowry list? I remember it was in that nanmu box, right?" Li Xia suddenly remembered.

"Am I still short of those?" Shi Xiangyun remembered that he was quite rich.

"Which girl's dowry was not saved when she was young. Some things can't be bought with money. The wife is from Jiangnan. People in the south pay attention to ten miles of red makeup when they marry their daughters. When the wife got married, she wore ten miles of red makeup. It was very dazzling. What? There are. Although we have tidied up a lot over the years, we still lack some. The girl married into the royal family, although she can't marry into the Qi Palace with most of the Lin family's wealth and glory like Princess Qi, but neither It will be too bad." On this point, Li Xia is particularly stubborn.

"Hehe, hehe." Shi Xiangyun could only smirk.Come to think of it, the nuns think the same way!

Sure enough, in the evening, Li Xia discussed this matter with Li Momo and Wang Momo, and Li Momo and Wang Momo agreed with this matter very much. After the discussion, it was decided that Wang Momo would bring the dowry list and personally go to Jiangnan for a visit. trip.

"Mother, you can go there. If they give you something, they'll bring it back. If they don't, then forget it. Anyway, I'm not short of those." Shi Xiangyun smiled and asked, the benefits from her properties over the years It was enough, not to mention that these were just superficial things, and the things her father left her were enough for her to spend a few lifetimes.

"What did you say, Miss? Naturally, the wife's dowry is reserved for the girl, and the Zhang family only keeps it temporarily. Now that the girl is about to leave the cabinet, the Zhang family should naturally return it to the girl." Nanny Wang said solemnly.

Shi Xiangyun smiled. She was not very optimistic about this matter. From the disappearance of the Zhang family for so many years, it can be seen that the Zhang family did not attach much importance to her and her mother.Otherwise, after all these years, I have to ask someone to come and take a look!But Li Xia also said that her mother's dowry was very rich back then, so the Zhang family should have attached great importance to her mother, but they have never ignored her all these years.

A possibility suddenly popped up in Shi Xiangyun's mind. Could it be that the Zhang family knew the real cause of his mother's death back then, but because of the situation at that time, they couldn't seek justice for their daughter, so they had to settle for the next best thing and take back all their daughter's dowry. He refused to stay to benefit the Shi family.

As for themselves, their feelings may also be very complicated. On the one hand, they belong to the Shi family, but on the other hand, they have the flesh and blood of the Zhang family. Under such contradictory psychology, they simply ignore themselves.

Shi Xiangyun sighed, if this is the case, how should she face the Zhang family?
