[Red Mansion] Marrying a wife like jade

When Shen Yue heard that Shen Shi was here now, he still wanted to spend money to avoid disaster and write off all the things he had done. He was amused by him: "Actually, you did nothing wrong. This land should really be in the mansion." Shen Shigang With a sigh of relief, Shen Yue said: "Because you are a slave, a slave cannot have private property!"

As soon as Zhu Xin's words fell into his ears, Shen Shi knew that he might not be able to do it as a housekeeper, so he couldn't help but said to Shen Yue: "Uncle, you can't let the sand know, but you should know the reason why clear water ponds don't raise fish. Which family in each mansion is as innocent as ours? Which one is a servant who does not think that he will be able to do it one day, even the old house, the big housekeeper..."

Over at the old house, Shen Yue's eyes froze, his intuition was indeed correct.I just don't know if it's just the slave who is greedy for money, or someone is deliberately trying to trick the scholar's house.

"You think that one day you can no longer be a servant, I can understand. Our family has never treated the servants harshly. If you ask for it, not only will you not be worth money, but you will not say what you have earned over the years, and you will also be rewarded. An family's silver. As a housekeeper, you shouldn't be ignorant." Shen Yue's voice was colder, and his solid heart sank even deeper into the darkness.

What Shen Yue said was the truth, Shen Shi couldn't refute it at all, and it was only his own greed to find out the root cause.Shen Shi wanted to understand, his body softened, and he looked like he was at his disposal.

What's the use of dealing with him alone?Fortunately, Shen Shi was asked by Mrs. Shen himself back then, and he has nothing to do with the people of Shen's residence. Otherwise, Shuang'an and the others would not be able to find out Shen Shi's mistakes so easily.Shen Yue asked people to lock Shen Shi's mother-in-law directly into the firewood room, and he brought people to the scholar's mansion.

In the study, Xueshi Shen and Shen Xin didn't look very good-looking.They always thought that their family was upright, but they didn't expect that after investigation, the masters were all law-abiding, and these slaves were using the name of the mansion to do illegal things.

Among them, the one who did the most evil was the butler who usually looked at the honesty.What they checked was exactly the same as what Shen Shi knew, which made Xueshi Shen drop his glass directly.Shen Yue went out in person to ask someone to serve tea to the grandfather again, and persuaded him: "Fortunately, I found out early, so I just send such a slave who bullies the master to the official."

Xueshi Shen took a look at Shen Xin, and remained silent for a long time.Shen Xin sighed lightly: "Send off to the official, how can it be so easy? Nowadays there are quite a few people who are staring at the position of Grand Master's chief assistant."

That's right, if the chief steward is sent to the government at such a juncture, someone will definitely impeach Shen Xueshi for his illegal slavery, and even those with dirty minds will think that this scholar's mansion is pushing the chief steward to take the blame.

"That Shen Shi, what are you going to do with it?" Bachelor Shen didn't say how he would deal with the big housekeeper, but instead asked Shen Yuelai.

Shen Yue had already made up his mind about this: "Send off the master's property to the official." It's only [-] acres of land, even if the Shen family pushes the housekeeper to take the blame, it will be regarded as a joke - in Daiyu's dowry, Zhuangzi is Starting with [-] mu, would you care about the tax on this mere [-] mu?

Hearing him speak so easily, Xueshi Shen himself sighed: "This old house is not as well-prepared as yours."

Seeing that the old man felt lonely, Shen Yue persuaded: "It's just that when my father was a foreigner, he experienced the chaos caused by the people in the father-in-law's house, so the two houses cleaned up the servants several times, and treated them not harshly, but they didn't treat them harshly. indulge."

Shen Xin took a deep look at his nephew, this was probably the difference between his experience of wind and rain and the experience taught by others.Back then, Shen Ren, who was a brother, had to take a job abroad for the sake of his family. Although it was a bit risky, it was more rewarding than himself who stayed in Beijing.

Shen Xueshi also had the same sigh as Shen Xin, now he began to feel that it was right or wrong to keep the eldest son by his side all the time, relying on the power of the family to make him smooth sailing?The eldest son is like this, what about Chao'er?Ever since Yue'er returned to Beijing, he discovered that the two children behaved differently. Shen Yue was obviously much more mature than his eldest grandson, and his behavior was much more prudent and considerate.

It is precisely because of this that Xueshi Shen put more effort into his eldest grandson after he became the head of the family, hoping that the eldest grandson can mature as soon as possible under his own teaching, and take on the responsibility of a eldest son, so as not to be doomed The side branch is compared.

But even if most of the hard work is devoted, the eldest grandson is still not as good as the second grandson.Shen Xueshi feels that it cannot be said that there is no role of the second son and Lin Ruhai in letting the second grandson go to Beijing alone to face the personnel affairs in Beijing early.Back then, when Shen Yue was ten years old, he borrowed paintings from the late emperor to appreciate him, and collected news from Beijing for Lin Ruhai. He solves it himself.

It was this kind of experience that created the current Shen Yue.Could it be that he should let his eldest grandson go out to practice?

This can be considered later, but how to deal with the slaves in this mansion has become an urgent matter.Shen Xueshi sneered in his heart, didn't he just fancy his position as chief assistant, so why not give it to you?I have a good grandson, and it is only a matter of time before the Shen family produces a chief assistant in the future.

But the second son is not here, so it is not good to say this in front of the second grandson.Although he also knows that his second grandson is not a person without ideas, and his ideas are often more sacred.

Shen Yue didn't know that Xueshi Shen had a decision in his heart, seeing that he was just silent, thinking that it was not good for Xueshi Shen to discuss countermeasures with Shen Xin here, so he asked them both to resign.Bachelor Shen didn't keep him, but let Shen Ren come to the old house after he came back from Zhuangzi.

Such a sentence, Shen Yue can still bring it.Who would have thought that Shen Ren didn't go back to the mansion alone, but took both Fang Shi and Daiyu back.Listening to him, the three old ladies and mothers had also returned, which made Shen Yue have to express his admiration for his father.

After talking about the cold and warm for a while, Shen Yue told Shen Ren and Fang Shi all about the situation he found in a day, and the problems in the scholar's residence.Even Daiyu felt terrified after hearing this: "It seems that it's better not to be lenient to the servant."

Faced with such a major event related to the future of the mansion, Fang Shi didn't care about his little awkwardness - Shen Renneng went to the village to pick up people in person, and Fang Shi's awkwardness disappeared without a trace long ago - just Urging Shen Ren to go back to the old house quickly.

Shen Yue still wanted to invite Shen Ren to eat before going, but Shen Ren himself couldn't wait: "Even if the family has been separated, can I lose a bite of food in the house?" He didn't even bother to change his clothes, so he drove back. Went to the Bachelor's House.

Who would have thought that Shen Ren really didn't have a meal in the scholar's mansion, and was directly shocked by what Shen Xueshi announced, and went back to his home dizzy.Fang Shi heard that he hadn't eaten yet, so he hurriedly asked the kitchen to come down quickly, complaining: "I have something to do, and I can't ignore my body, the master is more casual now."

Shen Ren looked at her blankly: "If I tell you what my grandfather said, you may not even be able to sleep." After speaking, he asked Shen Yue to come over quickly.

Shen Yue didn't expect Shen Ren to come back so fast, the food from the kitchen hadn't arrived when he came in a hurry, he wanted to wait for Shen Ren to finish his meal before talking, but Shen Ren couldn't wait, waved his hand to let everyone go down, and then whispered to Shen Yue and Fang Shi said: "Grandpa said he wants to beg for bones!"

Even if a thunderbolt fell directly into this room from the sky, it would not be as shocking as Shen Ren's words: Bachelor Shen, the chief minister of the cabinet who has just been in office for less than two years, actually wants to beg for bones ?

Shen Yue was more shocked than Fang Shi. Based on his understanding of Bachelor Shen, the old man was very satisfied with his position as the chief assistant, and hoped that he could reach or even surpass Grand Master Shen—after all, Grand Master Shen was begging for the bones, and he was not Not Shoufu.Moreover, the Shen family has always had a tradition of father and son supporting each other, now Shen Xincai is just a servant of the Ministry of Officials, not at the same level as when Grand Master Shen was begging for bones and Xueshi Shen was Minister of the Ministry of Households.

How could he be willing?Or did someone really intervene behind the big housekeeper, so Xueshi Shen had no choice but to retreat and show his bottom line to the world?

Obviously, Shen Ren didn't get much useful information, Xueshi Shen asked him to just inform him of his decision, and he would hand in the papers tonight, which happened to be handed over in the court tomorrow.

"Master, can you say how to deal with the housekeeper?" Shen Yue asked a question.

Shen Ren shook his head: "Grandpa said that we should wait until after begging for the bones before disposing of it."

It seems that Bachelor Shen is thinking of directly handing over the decision-making power to the present.

Shen Yue's heart was churning, even if he told himself that he reminded the scholar's office to check the slaves today, it was to prevent problems before they happen.The situation is a bit bad, and the Ministry of Academic Affairs finally took the initiative.But he always felt that if he hadn't been so sensitive, maybe Shen Xueshi would not have made the determination to beg for bones.With Bachelor Shen's way of checks and balances, even if the chief steward's behavior is really a trap set by others, Bachelor Shen can see through the tricks and save the day.

"Master," Shen Yue leaned down towards Shen Ren in a rare way: "Maybe my son talks too much."

Shen Ren was still a little puzzled, and Shen Yue told him directly that he had told Bachelor Shen that the reason why Shen's mansion is so clean now was because Shen Ren had to clean it up many times in order to prevent his servants from being bribed when he was working abroad.As a result, Xueshi Shen sighed very much, and then let himself go back home.

Shen Ren felt that what his son said was the truth. When his family was in foreign office, he had indeed cleared up servants many times, and faced crises many times. Shen Yue had to come to Beijing at a young age. Isn't it a good example?

For the nervous Shen Ren, Shen Yue felt that this was a kind of happiness, but he himself could not enjoy such a blessing.Daiyu saw that he had been depressed after returning to the room, and tried to get him to talk in different ways.

Shen Yuezhi sighed worriedly: "Yu'er, is it because I have too many things?"

Daiyu smiled lightly: "If you don't have too many things, you won't be Brother Ai."

That's right, if I hadn't done much, I wouldn't have persuaded Grand Master Shen to retreat bravely, wouldn't have improved the carriage, wouldn't have found high-yield crops, and wouldn't have tied my family to the First Prince, causing the Shen family to split up early .

Do you regret doing these things?Ask yourself, Shen Yue doesn't regret it, just like what Daiyu said, if you don't have to be so troublesome, he didn't even care whether Daiyu's fate was the same as in the original book, so is it still him?

Shen Yue, who wanted to understand, heard Xueshi Shen's impassioned speech in the court hall, saying that he was not strict in running his family, so that his subordinates committed illegal things. His eyes turned to him, but he was unmoved.

Today, I took another look at Shen Yue, who was standing in the corner of the hall, writing vigorously, and turned his head to Xueshi Shen who was kneeling under Majesty Dan, and said gently: "Scholar Shen is a normal person, so there is no need to be so sincere and fearful. The Shen family is a family of scholars, and they are always generous. People in the capital have seen it all. It is not your fault of lax family management, but your lack of human heart. It is also Shen Xueshi who is devoted to government affairs and neglects family affairs, so that the villain can take advantage of it."

Shen Yue, who deliberately changed shifts with others, quietly breathed a sigh of relief.With today's evaluation, even if someone still wants to use the matter of the housekeeper to attack Bachelor Shen, they should not dare to speak up.

Shen Xueshi did not get up, but bowed his head to the throne again: "The minister is old, and there are often omissions in his actions, so it is difficult to be the chief assistant. I also ask the sage to accept the minister's request, and choose another virtuous person to take the position of chief assistant."

So after three requests and three resignations, seeing that Bachelor Shen's attitude is firm now, I had to ask him to think about who can take over his class, and he can't go home to spend his life until the next chief assistant is confirmed.

After the imperial court was over, Xueshi Shen and other senior scholars were called to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to discuss who could succeed Xueshi Shen as the chief assistant.In fact, the Bachelor of Wenhua Palace had been the second assistant for a long time, and it was a violation of the norm for Shen Xueshi to pass him as the first assistant after observing his filial piety.Now that Xueshi Shen is begging for bones, it's the turn of Wenhuadian University scholar.

But the meaning of the saint is very obvious: if the Sacred Heart really intended for the University of Wenhuadian, it would not call these people together to discuss.So everyone in the hall kept silent.Now I have no choice but to name Bachelor Shen and ask him to name a candidate.

That is to say, when he made up his mind to beg for bones, Xueshi Shen certainly didn't want to offend this person. He only said that he didn't even see the housekeeper who had been with him for many years, so he didn't dare to say that he knew people, so he asked Sacred Heart to judge.Nowadays, it is not easy to criticize a person who is about to retire, so I have to ask all the bachelors one by one.It's a pity that these people are also old fritters. Once Tai Chi push hands came out, they still haven't got the answer.

The Grand Scholars didn't name the candidate, so now they can only let people go back and think about it, and said to Shen Yue who was called after him: "I can't let the ministers recommend it."

Shen Yue only thought that he was talking to himself, and lowered his head, refusing to speak.Seeing that he was silent, he suddenly asked him now: "What if Lin Ruhai is appointed as a bachelor?"

Shen Yue still lowered his head: "The sage has already made a decision in his heart, and I dare not say more."

Today, if you call him a cunning, you no longer make it difficult for him, but ask about the donated official exam.Now that the registration of donor officials is coming to an end, the applicants for literary talents are the least, and not many are produced, but there are more applicants for spelling and accounting, and the most are calligraphy and painting skills.

However, Shen Yue also made it clear to the present that there are many people here who are pretending to be fake: there are no criteria for judging calligraphy and painting skills. You say that his writing is not good, but Shen Yue has seen ugly calligraphy in his previous life.You say that he doesn't paint well, but others insist that the focus is on the concept, what should you do?

He frowned when he heard it today: "That's it, why do you have to come up with these two test questions?"

Shen Yue smiled like a bit of a thief: "Those people must be able to report one thing. Otherwise, they have to say that they have talents, but they didn't pass the exam in the court. Wouldn't it be more annoying? Although there are no What standard, but everyone is a scholar, and they can still tell the good from the bad."

When those people dare to write an ugly book for him in advance, he really dares to post it for them to see if the elders in their family can afford to lose this person.

Nowadays, it doesn't matter what method Shen Yue thinks of to torment those dandies, he has always been pragmatic, and what he dislikes the most is those people who use the banner of the family to make his country a mess.

Since Shen Yue has the means to deal with these people, let him deal with them. Although Shen Yue has to rely on his own support for him, but he is willing to support him, who dares to say no?This is the use of supreme power.For today, the most important thing is to solve the problem of power transfer that occurred after Bachelor Shen became an official.

The first decree is to replace Shen Xueshi as the first assistant by the University of Zhaowenguan instead of the University of Wenhuadian.This point is inspired by Shen Yue: as long as the power is in his own hands, it is not important who will be the chief assistant.

Therefore, the reason why there is no need for a scholar from the Wenhua Palace is because the hidden guards have already found out that the chief steward of the scholar's residence has too close contacts with the brother of the University scholar from the Wenhua Palace.The brother of a bachelor of yours has a close relationship with the housekeeper of another bachelor, and he has no dirty thoughts behind his back, so it's strange if he can be trusted today.

The second decree is to let Lin Ruhai enter the cabinet, a bachelor of the Jinjixian Academy, and still concurrently serve as the secretary of the household department.

Just when everyone was feeling sorry for the Shen family, and felt that Xueshi Shen's move of retreating into advance was useless - not only did he not retain much, even Shen Xin failed to make a further step.You know, when Grand Master Shen retreated bravely, the first emperor let Bachelor Shen directly join the cabinet.The courtiers once again realized that today's behavior is very different from that of the previous emperor. What he wants is actual performance, not some good looks.

Just when the door of the scholar's mansion started to be neglected, the people of Shen's mansion grew up in the scholar's mansion almost every day.The reasoning to the outside world is to accompany Xueshi Shen to relieve boredom, but who doesn't know, this is to announce to the outside, that even though Xueshi Shen has retired, the sons of the Shen family are not renounced.Don't look at the fact that the family has been separated, but what's the matter, they are still a family, and they have to face the wind and rain together, which is still not something that ordinary people can despise.

The most terrible thing is that today, Bachelor Shen is actually invited to be the chief examiner of the donors!

How many people secretly resent that today's actions are too wild and unconstrained. You let Bachelor Shen be the chief examiner, and you have already shown some intentions to let everyone know.Now it's all right, just start snubbing Shen's family, and you'll do this to everyone, no one will have the face to stick to it.

Those who complain about the present have never thought that if they were not too snobbish, they would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation.It can only be said that parents who can raise playboys have bear essence.

But there are no absolutes in the world, unexpectedly someone came to the scholar's mansion at this time, and directly sent the post of meeting to Daiyu.Looking at the post in her hand, Daiyu felt a little bit of old age, and said to Xueyan who reported the letter: "Please go to the flower hall."

Xueyan pouted a little angrily: "Such a person, why should grandma see her?"

Daiyu glanced at Xueyan helplessly: "The person who is about to get married, why is she still like this. She is always an old friend, and I also want to know why she treats me like that."

The old man who was brought to the flower hall looked at the almost unchanged furnishings, and sighed in his heart that things were right and people were wrong.Of course she knew that this flower hall must be cleaned from time to time and carefully everywhere: the pot of swaying orchids is definitely not the one from a few years ago, and the hanging curtain cage is not the one from back then.

But everything is as similar as it was a few years ago, it is obvious that the owner is a nostalgic person - if it is not for nostalgia, who would bother to find a bluegrass that looks like a few years ago, and a fabric that was popular a few years ago .

Now the only hope in her heart lies in the master's nostalgia.

"Madam Gu." Daiyu entered the door, and saw Mu Wan staring blankly at the decoration, and called out.

When Mu Wan heard someone calling her, she turned her head suddenly, and saw a fairy-like figure walking towards her slowly under the gentle support of a girl.She also got up slowly, showing a smile to Daiyu: "Yu'er."

Daiyu still smiled like that: "Madam Gu, please sit down." Her eyes couldn't help but look at Mu Wan: she was wearing a honey-colored long dress that was old and not old, neither ostentatious nor shabby, it still looked so comfortable.The stature seems to be a little taller than that of the boudoir, and the smile on the face is still as friendly as before.If you ignore the fine lines that have appeared in the corners of the eyes, anyone who sees them will give a thumbs up, what a decent young lady.

Daiyu looked at Mu Wan, and Mu Wan also looked at Daiyu.I saw that the person had a jade face, clear eyebrows, a slimmer figure than before, and a peaceful expression.At the first sight, I feel that the temperament is natural, and then I look at the appearance and temperament complement each other.With just that peaceful attitude, there are so many women in the world, high and low, who will be compared.Only a person with a smooth life and a considerate husband, who has everything delivered to him, and someone who is willing to do everything for him, can cultivate such tranquility.

Mu Wan sighed in her heart, and the smile on her face became even wider: "It was also in this flower hall back then, everyone was so happy. I don't want to think that years have passed, and there will be a day of gathering here." The words were natural, as if there were not a few years in between The estrangement of not meeting is normal.

Daiyu didn't expect her to say this first, and her expression was a bit perplexed: "Yes, since Mrs. Gu was overjoyed, she has less and less contact with everyone, and Zizhen and the others miss her very much."

Everyone knows why the contacts are decreasing.Mu Wan heard Daiyu say so bluntly, she couldn't maintain her smile anymore: "It's easy to exchange riches and wives, it's very human." The voice floated in the flower hall vaguely, and it didn't go for a long time.

Daiyu's expression is the same, is she blaming herself?She had already discovered that Mu Wan had resentment towards herself, so she thought it would be fine to stay away.I don't want to say such a thing face to face today, is this to blame the reason for the alienation on myself?

"Madam Gu's words are really reasonable. Isn't there another sentence, poor people in the downtown area are not asked, and rich people have distant relatives in the mountains, why don't Madam Gu say it together." Daiyu's voice was very cold.

Mu Wan suddenly came to her senses, she was asking for something today, why did she express such emotion, she hurriedly smiled again: "But due to the sudden change of the elders in the family, so I sigh, Yu'er don't care. "

But Daiyu couldn't smirk with her: "Madam Gu didn't think she came here to catch up with me."

Mu Wan took a deep breath, but the smile on her face remained unchanged: "It's just asking for something."
