The eldest cousin of the year also left home at this age, and when he returned home later, the family could only identify him from his appearance.Wen Siyuan said earnestly: "You have to respect the big house, they are responsible for protecting the entire Wen family."
This is also why Dafang has been the patriarch of the Wen clan for generations, and only the peace of the Wen family can have the development of the Wen family. ”"The fourth uncle was rejected by the emperor because he violated the ancestral teachings of the Wen family, supported the prince, and got too close to the prince" Wen Siyuan looked at the long night outside, "Your fourth uncle is not greedy for ink. ”"What" Wen Lingyou's eyes were about to fall out, "But the fourth uncle is indeed in love with the dark building." ”Where did the money come from, 100,000 taels of silver at a time, this is not a small amount, even if the Wen family has a rich family business, when the five rooms were divided, and the second to fifth rooms each received 100,000 taels of silver, most of the money went to the big house.This is the old Hou Ye Wen Qing when he was alive for them to divide a few rooms, saying that the big house pays the most for the family, and he is the patriarch, so he should only be more protective.Wen Siyuan wanted to talk about it.Wen Lingyou woke up like a dream and said, "My son understands, the money was given by the prince." ”Wen Siyuan nodded with satisfaction, "Sometimes, there are some things that you don't have to say, you just need to understand it in your heart."
The matter of the fourth room was decided by your grandmother after consulting with your uncle and your father.Only in this way can you remove your fourth uncle from the competition for the prince.For our Wen family, the truth is hidden in our hearts, peace is the most important, our Wen family has been loyal to the emperor and the people of the world for generations, and we don't have to pay attention to the rest.As long as you know this, even if you are really wrong, you will not be ashamed. ”"If loyalty to the emperor and loyalty to the people can only be chosen for one time, how should the latter be chosen?"
The latter is the Great Loyalty, and the former is the Little Loyalty. ”"My son understood.The meaning of the existence of our three rooms is to help the long-term family from generation to generation and be the strategist of the long-house.But they can't let the other people see it. ”Today, Wen Siyuan felt that he should tell his eldest son the truth.Back then, their father, Wen Qing, chose the eldest son among the five sons to support the whole family.became the helmsman of the clan, and chose the most suitable strategist Wen Siyuan for the eldest son, and cultivated their brothers from an early age.Long room, three rooms.One martial arts and one literature, the military holds the military power, and the text is the assistance.Wen Lingyou said: "This is also my grandfather's arrangement back then" "No, this is what the Queen Mother and your grandfather meant." ”The long room is from the martial arts, the third room is from the text, the Wen family has this literature and a martial arts, and they will definitely be able to go further.Wen Lingyou looked at the chessboard, stumped, undecided, and settled again.Catching up with Wen Siyuan's appreciative gaze, he smiled slightly, "My sister is now studying in the palace, and I don't know if I will return when I take a break." ”"When she enters the palace, she has to serve the princess, and she is rarely idle."
Wen Lingyou said again: "Ling Shu and Ling Shi will get married in the future, and they will also be arranged by the big house, I heard that the second sister-in-law and the eldest aunt have been preparing dowries and dowries for their three sisters and brothers recently. ”It was not the children of the long house, and the fourth room was confiscated from the family property, and there was nothing, even the good land and shops that were originally separated were gone.But the dowry of the three children cannot be less, nor can the dowry be less.Wen Siyuan said: "Your grandmother has spoken, and the dowry and dowry of the three of them are all from the accounts of the Wen family. ”Wen Lingyou said: "Today, my mother received a banquet post from the palace, inviting my mother and sister to the banquet. ”He froze for a moment, "Dafang didn't receive the post.There is no second room, it is the "big house" that chooses the concubine for the two princes, and only has three sisters-in-law; Wen Zhiyuan's eldest daughter in the second room has been out of the cabinet, and there is a young daughter who is only twelve years old; is also the daughter of the third room, Ling Shu, who is at a good age.Wen Siyuan said: "Shu'er will not be chosen." ”Wen Lingyou looked at her father quietly, her eyes full of admiration."
The emperor will not let any prince marry a girl from the Wen family."
The Wen family had an agreement with the Murong royal family, which began when Wen Rushan left home at a young age, and maintained the best peace.They just can't get married, even if in the eyes of many people, marriage is the best way, but in the eyes of the Wen family, it will make them lose their original intentions.When Wen Siyuan's father and son were gossiping, Jiang Ruoning in the palace finally drew the map of Emperor Zhengxing's expedition to the northwest, she put down her brush and shouted: "Xiao Gaozi called Yulan and Ling Shu and asked them to help me refer to the details, what is special about this painting compared to the triumphant northwest map." ”Xiao Gaozi sat on the Taishi's chair and dozed off, and was called by her to respond loudly, and ran to the west side hall with all his energy.Xue Yulan and Wen Lingshu are reading a book and doing needlework.Xue Yulan's female popularity is excellent, a few days ago, Jiang Ruoning found a picture of a cat playing koi, which was very smart and interesting, Jiang Ruoning asked Xue Yulan to embroider it for her, saying that it would be made into a screen.Xiao Gaozi called the two of them, and Xue and Wen ran to the main hall and saw a completed painting in front of Jiang Ruoning.Standing at a distance outside the zhangxu, the visual impact is more dazzling, tragic, vicissitudes, tragic, the ruthless sprint of the battlefield, the realism of the characters above, the expressions are different, there are loud shouts, some look up and cry, some sink in the fight, the pain of the enemy, the heroism of the emperor, the high-pitched bravery of the generals are all jumping on the paper.Xue Yulan stared at the picture for a long time: "I haven't seen it for a few days, so it's done, this painting is more charming than the triumphal picture, and the hair, beard, and eyebrows are more realistic than the previous triumphal picture." ”"I have integrated the gongbi painting skills taught me by Mr.
Xue into it, how about it, let's see it like this" Wen Lingshu said: "The style of this painting is very different from that one, and Princess Dekong also instructed her courtiers." ”"I heard that Concubine De Niangniang is going to hold a banquet in the future, so you have to participate in it too" Xue Yulan looked at Wen Lingshu.She is the daughter of a poor student, and even after Master Xue became an official, the life of the family was only slightly better than before.Wen Lingshu said: "At dusk today, the palace lady of Yonghe Palace handed over a message, saying that Concubine De Niangniang had made a post to her mother and courtiers, and the palace banquet was going to the day after tomorrow. ”Xue Yulan said with regret: "In this way, the courtiers can't participate." ”Jiang Ruoning said with some joy: "It's either playing the piano or dancing, the palace banquet last time, that is, Xie Qianyu's plum blossom picture is not bad, but she can't participate in it this time."
It's just right that Yulan doesn't participate, and when the time comes, she will accompany me to play outside the palace. ”There is a banquet in the palace, and the princess also goes to play outside the palace, how can this be Jiang Ruoning said: "Tonight, I will go to the west hall to rest, and squeeze with you, a few of us girls just happen to talk together."
Yulan and Ling Shu both told me some interesting things, well, I like to listen to them the most.Let's go, let's talk to ourselves. ”Jiang Ruoning entered the West Side Palace, served Gong E and prepared hot soup, and after washing his face and feet, Jiang Ruoning took off his robe and sat on the embroidered couch with only his middle coat, "Let me tell you what happened to me before, well, it's my life in the folk."
I live in Hetang Village, Renhe Town, Fengtianfu" Jiang Ruoning was lying on the bed, murmuring interesting things about the family, her grandmother who loved her, her uncle who was honest and honest, and her aunt who was careful in her calculations.After finishing speaking, she said: "I'm the biggest, I'll say it first, which of you two is the biggest, she will say it first." ”Xue Yulan raised her hand and said with a smile: "I'm older than Ling Shu." ”"Magnolia, say it quickly."
Xue Yulan said: "My hometown is Huizhou, the town is called Xingwang Town, our family lives in Xuejia Village, and all the people in the village are surnamed Xue.My grandfather was a showman, my grandmother could weave, and the female celebrity was also famous for her good fortune, but my grandfather didn't know how to farm, so he set up a private school in the village to earn some money to make a living.My uncle and father both grew up studying in my grandfather's private school, and my grandfather was especially patient and easy-going with other people's children.I also have an aunt, my uncle is a talent in Xingwang Town, thirteen years older than my aunt, repeatedly failed the exam, and later heard that my aunt can read and write, and can also weave cloth and become a lady.My uncle was not as smart as my father, and after a few years of studying, my grandfather was the master of the farming.My father kept reading it, and he used to say that he had what he is today because of the hard work of his grandfather, grandmother, and uncle.Every time he gets money, he will let his mother save it, and send it home every year around the Dragon Boat Festival and the New Year's Festival" Xue Jingting is an ordinary, but filial piety of the poor student, one person is out of breath, do not forget to pull to help the family, listen to Xue Yulan said, the life of the Xue family is a little better now, but Xue Jingting has worked hard for so many years, saving money, the Xue family only added twenty acres of fertile land, and the family has also been rebuilt from a thatched house to a brick house.Grandfather Xue still teaches in the village, but Uncle Xue occasionally goes to help.Uncle Xue's family has two sons and a daughter, both of whom are older than Xue Yulan, and the daughter is called Yumei, and her name was given by Grandfather Xue.The two sons have also married one after another, and Grandfather Xue's most common words are "You have to learn from your second uncle, study hard and glorify your ancestors." ”Wen Lingshu asked: "Yulan, what does your family do to make a living?"
"My father sells paintings, my father's paintings of flowers and birds are the best, and he will sell one painting every month, and a painting will sell for three or four hundred taels of silver, and when it is less, it is enough for our family to live." ”Wen Lingshu was lying on the bed, a little unimaginable, the family relied on his father to sell calligraphy and paintings for a living, what kind of life is this, a total of a few hundred taels of silver a month, and as little as seventy or eighty taels of silver, which sounds really small.She entered the palace as a companion, and her mother gave her a hundred taels of silver a month, and said that if it was not enough, she could make up for it.Xue Yulan continued: "My father is so capable, we have our own second-entry courtyard in the capital, divided into front yard and backyard, and there are five subordinates in the family, surnamed Xiao, who is a family, originally four people, the eldest son of the Xiao housekeeper is older, and my father bought a dignified girl to marry him as a daughter-in-law.I have an older brother, a sister-in-law, and two lovely little nephews.My sister-in-law is the daughter of my father's classmate and friend, and she is also a well-read and gentle child.My brother works as a shopkeeper in a bookstore in Beijing.I have an older sister, my brother-in-law is a young talent I knew when my father was in office, and my brother-in-law is a good man, and in two years he will go to Beijing to take the exam, and then I will be able to see my brother-in-law.I have a younger brother, who is two years younger than me, and is now studying at the Beijing Academy. ”To be continued.4209051:
