(I came back just after 11 o'clock. I will update it later. Please check it out tomorrow!)
…
Sheng Changquan hugged Sister Zhuo and brought her closer to Madam Wang, so that the little girl could see the jade pendant more clearly and satisfy the little one's curiosity.
However, because Hai Chaoyun didn't say anything, the little guy only dared to look at the jade pendant pitifully, but he didn't dare to move it, or even touch it!
Seeing this, Sheng Changquan shook his head with pity and patted the little guy's back with his hand to comfort him. At the same time, he also opened his mouth to clarify the relationship between the two.
"The jade pendant in front of us is only single-color, but in terms of quality, it is incomparable with the legendary jade seal passed down from the country."
"In the classification of jade hearts, their status is very different depending on the color. Among them, the more colors, the more precious the jade heart is."
"Often, this difference in color can make a world of difference!"
"So, don't think of this thing as too precious. The single-color jade heart is not that exaggerated."
Although Sheng Changquan explained it this way, no one believed it at all.
Except for Sister Zhuo who doesn't understand because she is young, others, even Wang Ruofu, can guess the value of this jade pendant, knowing that it must be expensive.
Although it is far different from the jade seal, what is the jade seal of the country?
That is the supreme treasure that has represented the orthodoxy of humanity since ancient times. What can compare with it?
What's more, the materials of this jade pendant and the jade seal passed down from the country can be regarded as "learned from the same school". They are both carved from the same jade heart. To a certain extent, they are on the same level.
Therefore, this jade pendant will naturally not be as "mediocre" as Sheng Changquan said.
"alright!"
And just when everyone was immersed in this inexplicable shock and somewhat silent, Sheng Hong suddenly spoke.
"Since Chang Quan has said so, my wife, just accept it!"
Sheng Hong took the jade pendant from Mrs. Wang's hand, then walked to Sheng Changquan, put it around Sister Zhuo's neck, and said: "From now on, let Sister Zhuo wear it happily." , she is not allowed to take it off!"
"In this way, it can be regarded as a little kindness from Changquan, my uncle!"
Sheng Hong waved his hand and said decisively to Hai Chaoyun: "Besides, we are all one family!"
"It's just a jade pendant. No matter how much you cherish it, it's nothing!"
"hehe!"
"Yes, that's what Father said!"
Sheng Changquan continued to hug Sister Zhuo, smiled, then bumped the little guy, and followed Sheng Hong's words and said: "Second sister-in-law, you don't have to be polite. We are all a family, and there is no need to use those false etiquette." !”
"What's more, based on the relationship between my second brother and I, this jade pendant is nothing at all!"
On the side, Mrs. Wang, who heard Sheng Changquan talking like this, smiled and narrowed her eyes unconsciously: "Well, Changquan is quite a sensible kid!"
Mrs. Wang was secretly satisfied in her heart and thought Sheng Changquan was very good.
In her opinion, Sheng Changquan spoke like this because he knew how to advance and retreat, and knew how to measure. He was not like Sheng Changfeng in Linqi Pavilion, who always aimed at Sheng Changbai, eager to surpass him!
Although Sheng Changfeng had always suffered a disastrous defeat against Sheng Changbai, seeing that her son had such an "enemy", and that the mother of this "enemy" was also her own "enemy", Mrs. Wang naturally disliked seeing her "enemy" mother and son. of.
"Then...if that's the case!"
"Then I will thank the seventh brother on behalf of Sister Zhuo!"
After Hai Chaoyun hesitated for a while, he finally agreed.
There is no way, this jade pendant is really extremely precious, especially for children.
After all, a jade heart nourishes and protects people better. For children who are prone to die young, this jade heart is indeed more protective.
Of course, there is such a statement, but it is impossible to verify whether there is any basis for it.
But judging from past examples, all children who wear jade heart ornaments can indeed grow up healthy and rarely suffer from disasters.
"Ahem!"
"alright!"
Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was gradually improving, Sheng Hong couldn't help but start to speak: "Now that Chang Quan has returned, our family can be considered reunited!"
Although, at the moment, there are only so many people in this room in the Sheng Mansion in the capital.
Oh, right!
In fact, those still in Bianliang City include Lin Sushuang from Lin Qige and Sheng Changbai who has not yet returned from office.
Others have not returned yet.
In fact, the Sheng family, including Mo Lan and Ru Lan, were in Dingzhou and not in the capital.
As for Sheng Changfeng, he went to pick up his two younger sisters.
That's right, the two orchids at this time should also be rushing to the capital, and they may be back in the next few days.
Because Mo Lan and Ru Lan were going to Mrs. Wang's natal Wang family, if they returned to Bianjing, even if they were protected by someone from the Wang family, they would still be a little unsafe on the road.
At the very least, Mrs. Wang, Sheng Hong and others were worried, so they sent Sheng Changfeng out to prepare for him, the elder brother, to bring back the two sisters.
As for why Sheng Changfeng was asked to go, there was nothing that could be done about it. In the Sheng family, Sheng Changfeng was the only one who had free time. The other two were imperial officials and couldn't get away at all.
And the reason why Mo Lan and Ru Lan are asked to come back quickly is because they are not too young anymore, and their marriage must be arranged before the year, otherwise, the Sheng family will have to go to the Yamen. Come on, pay the stipulated "late wedding fee"!
This money is a small thing, but the reputation is big. If people find out that the two girls of the Sheng family have not yet left the court, it will be ugly.
Even if there is a reason for the incident, and it is because the palace draft delayed the girl's time to choose a husband, it still cannot be justified. The world will only say: "If this is the case, then why can't a girl from your Sheng family get married?"
"Thinking about it, I'm afraid it's because of your Sheng family's own fault, right?"
"Otherwise, why don't girls from other families have such a thing?"
"..."
As soon as these words were said, the Sheng family was really speechless, that's why Sheng Hong spoke like this.
After Sheng Hong said something to everyone, he turned around and bowed to Mrs. Sheng in the hall, and respectfully asked for instructions: "Mother!"
"It's getting late now, so let's go have a meal!"
After hearing what Sheng Hong said, Mrs. Sheng suddenly felt a little hungry, so she nodded slightly and said, "That's fine!"
"In that case, just ask someone to pass the food on!"
Mrs. Sheng raised her head and looked at the large family. She found that almost all the family members were together, and she couldn't help but said: "Today, everyone will eat in my Shou'an Hall!"
"This way, everyone can have fun together with me, an old woman!"
Mrs. Sheng smiled and waved to Sheng Changquan, gesturing for him to bring Sister Zhuo over.
"Haha, by the way, let Sister Zhuo and I, an old woman, have a good kiss!"
Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but smile and thought to themselves: "The old lady really likes Sister Zhuo!"
…
Dinner is over.
Everyone saw a look of distress on Old Mrs. Sheng's face, so they all hurriedly asked her to leave, preparing to leave a quiet environment for her to have a good rest.
Seeing this, Mrs. Sheng would not refuse.
So, after getting the old lady's permission, everyone went out.
Among them, Mrs. Wang and her daughter-in-law Hai Chaoyun stopped Minglan and pulled her towards Wei Ruixuan.
"Come on, tomorrow, tell me what happened with Youyang?"
"What happened at your uncle's house?"
"..."
There was excitement that could not be concealed in Mrs. Wang's tone.
It seems that she is happy?
Minglan suspected that she might have understood it wrong. Mrs. Wang could not be so happy about something happening to her uncle's family.
After all, if something happens to Sheng Wei's family, Sheng Hong's family will also be affected.
Let’s not talk about anything else, let’s just talk about the cost of living in Bianjing City for the second room of the Sheng family. What will we do then?
If something really happened to uncle Sheng Wei, then Sheng Hong would no longer be able to maintain his "not greedy for gold". After all, if he doesn't have enough to eat, how can he have any moral integrity?
With Sheng Hong's temperament, how could he not be greedy?
therefore.
"Madam, what do you think?"
Minglan thought for a long time, and finally decided to test a few words carefully.
"Madam, are you concerned about uncle's family affairs?"
Minglan finally carefully changed her story and said directly: "Actually, nothing happened to the uncle's family. It's just that Sister Shulan and Renhe have separated."
"Heli?"
As soon as she heard these two words, Mrs. Wang's eyes lit up and she immediately became energetic.
"Quick! Minglan! Say it quickly!"
"What's going on here?"
…
On the other side, Sheng Hong took Sheng Changquan to his study.
"sit down!"
After the two of them arrived in the study, Sheng Hong stretched out his hand and motioned for Sheng Changquan to sit down.
"Yes, father!"
Sheng Changquan first bowed his head respectfully, and then followed Sheng Hong's wishes and sat on the chair in front of him.
This chair is placed in front of the desk, but it just happens to face the chair behind the desk. The two chairs are one behind the other, so the owners can talk face to face.
Sheng Hong's study is not small in area. Not only is the layout elegant, but the style is also quite casual.
It seems to be somewhat elegant.
"Quan'er!"
Sheng Hong walked behind the desk and sat safely on another chair. He looked at his own son and asked: "Quan'er, in the past six years, you have followed your teacher and you have been to a lot of places." Place."
Although this sentence seemed to be doubtful, Sheng Hong's tone was an affirmative statement.
Come to think of it, Sheng Hong must have thought about this issue many times.
"Have you continued to study in the past few years?"
"You didn't leave the article behind, did you?"
A few sentences in a row showed Sheng Hong's inner nervousness.
As early as six years ago, Sheng Hong already knew Mr. Zhuang's plan, and also understood that he wanted to educate and practice, and wanted to teach Sheng Changquan the principles of life in this experienced way.
However, he also had a word with Mr. Zhuang first, asking him to do this experience on the premise of ensuring Sheng Changquan's study enthusiasm.
Moreover, he must not be allowed to degenerate in the imperial examination, otherwise, even if he becomes a man again, it will be of no use.
After all, what is the use of a scholar if he cannot pass the imperial examination?
At the very least, this is the case in the Sheng family. If he fails the exam and fails to pass, then this person will really be a waste in Sheng Hong's eyes.
"Father, in the past six years, my son has indeed traveled to many places with his teacher, and has seen a lot of people and the world..."
Sheng Changquan honestly repeated his experience again, and finally said: "However, my son's studies have not fallen behind!"
"In fact, because of my experiences over the years, I have gained more insights into life, and I feel that I have improved a lot when writing articles."
Sheng Changquan said this confidently, which comforted Sheng Hong on the side.
"If that's the case, have you ever thought about the next provincial examination?"
At this time, Sheng Hong still didn't know what Sheng Changquan's plan was and whether he would participate in this provincial examination, so he asked him this question.
"Father, this is natural!"
Sheng Changquan said without thinking: "My son has decided to participate in this year's Qiu Wei!
…
(Change first and then change)
…
"oh?"
"Participate in this Qiu Wei?"
Hearing this, Sheng Hong felt happy immediately!
He raised his head and glanced at his son in front of him, his eyes narrowed slightly unconsciously, as if there was something a little strange about him.
"What does Quan'er mean by this?"
"Is it possible that he is sure to pass the exam this time?"
Sheng Hong secretly guessed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He just lowered his eyelids slightly to hide the fluctuations in his heart.
As a strict father, Sheng Hong naturally wanted to show his emotions and anger, so he continued to keep his face straight, stared at Sheng Changquan with a serious expression, and asked: "Changquan, what do you mean by this? Do you Are you sure you can go to high school?"
Sheng Hong was happy in his heart, but it was the opposite on his face.
He frowned and said angrily: "If you can't do it, you don't have to be so anxious!"
"Don't be impatient about what my father told you in the letter before. It would be bad if your literary fortune is set back because of a small loss."
Although the Confucian school claims that it does not talk about strange powers and chaos, and does not believe in those gods and ghosts, this group of people believe in literary fortune and feel that if a person can always be in power, then his literary fortune will be extremely high. Good, you can accumulate sufficient foundation and win again and again.
But similarly, if a person's momentum of victory is interrupted, then that person's literary fortune will take a sharp turn, and he will not be able to regain his former glory.
In the same way, if Sheng Changquan's momentum is interrupted, can he still win Jieyuan?
