The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 18 Tool Man Shengyuan

"Sanlang, is it okay to just leave like this?" Zheng Shi and Sheng Xiangxun walked out of Anhe Hall hand in hand, seeing the light smile in the corner of his eyes, they couldn't help asking softly.

Sheng Xiangxun held Zheng's hand and shook it lightly, and asked with a narrow-eyed smile, "Lingniang is afraid that the old man will drive us out of the house?"

Mrs. Zheng knew that he was joking, but because the weather was very good, the sun was shining brightly and the spring breeze was warm, and her mood was also very light, so she deliberately joked: "I thought the sound of the Duke of Guo's rolling was very thorough."

Sheng Xiangxun smiled and looked sideways at his wife, who happened to look up too.

Everything is so just right.

Under the sun, her eyes were full of smiles, and his heart was also full of ripples.

"When my grandfather was around, he took over the title, and because he was afraid that he would be biased towards the Chang family and cause discord among his concubines, he forced him to make his elder brother the eldest son. Later, he was worried that his private treasury would only be given to the son of the Chang family, so he took it from himself. I allocated a large amount of property from the private treasury to me."

Sheng Xiangxun raised his hand and brushed the broken hair from Zheng's ear: "Grandfather said at the time that all the deeds of those properties were transferred to me, but he also said that if the family is not separated for a day, all the property will be returned to the public. .

Now that the Duke's mansion is full of descendants, everything needs money, you say... he can be willing to divide me out? "

"So that's how it is." Zheng was stunned to hear this, nodded slowly, then stared at Sheng Xiangxun who was still sighing with affectionate eyes, and asked extremely gently, "It's just that I and Sanlang have been close for twenty years. Zai, how come you never knew about this industry?"

"???!!! I can explain it!" Seeing his wife smiling so kindly, Sheng Xiangxun felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, and hurriedly raised his daughter's little hand to express his grievance, "Isn't that Do you want to give you a surprise when the family splits up in the future?"

Tool man Shengyuan kid: "..."

Tired!
Sighing, he looked up at the chubby paw being held up and shaken by his father. Sheng Yuan, who had already rolled his eyes once, couldn't hold back, and then rolled them five or six times.

Seeing how nervous Zheng was, she couldn't help covering her lips and chuckling.

She was just joking about what he said, but she could hear that his words were true, so she was very satisfied, and nodded: "Okay, then I will wait for the division of the family to receive the property."

Shocked by his wife, Sheng Xiangxun broke out in a cold sweat. At this moment, he said extraordinarily: "I'll give you the contract when I get back, and we can count and receive it when we move out tomorrow."

Zheng Shi smiled and nodded, not continuing this topic.

Seeing that his wife was in a good mood, Sheng Xiangxun heaved a sigh of relief, only to realize that he was still holding his little girl's fat paw.

Eh?Does this little paw feel good?
Look down!

Hey, although this little girl's little paws are not big, they are very fleshy. Look at the dimples on the back of her hand!
"Our little Jiu Niang is so lucky!" He held his daughter's little hand while beckoning his wife to come and see.

Sheng Yuan was so angry that she wanted to pull her father's ear, don't think she couldn't hear it, at this time they said that the child is fat is a blessing, her father said she is blessed, isn't it just laughing at her fat?

"You don't want to trick her!" Zheng's eyes were quick, and she wrapped the little girl's paws that were attacking her father, gave her husband a look, and then waved to Sheng Yuan with a smile, "Come on, mother hugs you."

Sheng Xiangxun had already felt the claw wind of the little girl's sneak attack just now, and he was terrified immediately, touched his ears, patted his chest thankfully, and then bowed his hands to Zheng: "Fortunately, Madam saved me, otherwise my husband's ears would be afraid." I’m going to suffer! Hey! I have nothing to show for my husband, so I can only respectfully invite my wife to visit the garden.”

He pretended to be a nerd and joked, and made Zheng itch for a while, and wanted to take over the conversation and communicate with him with acting skills, but when she just got excited, she suddenly saw her two daughters with big round eyes Look at it!
Holding one in his arms, leading one by his hand... What is this, this, what is this!
Hong Xiafei's cheeks were flushed, and Zheng stepped on her husband's foot angrily, then turned to leave.

"Oh, madam, go slowly, and wait for your husband."

It's fine if he doesn't say anything, but when he said that, Zheng's steps became faster.

Sheng Xiangxun didn't care, and chased after him with a smile.

Sheng Yuan originally thought that this visit to the garden would be in vain, but she didn't want her mother to walk in a direction that was not the way home: "..."

Hehe, the elders have deep routines, so she shouldn't take it seriously!

"Mother, why is my younger sister the third lady at home, but Sheng Jiuniang outside, and my grandfather wants to call us Nv Yingjun?" Sheng An couldn't help but see that everyone was silent, and asked his sister as an example. Puzzled, "I didn't realize it before, but now I see that everyone is shouting differently, and I feel a little confused."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zheng slowed down her pace, looked down at her second daughter, and smiled to explain her confusion: "Actually, more than ten years ago, Da Chu seldom referred to her as a lady, and they all referred to her as Miss, but A few years ago when Daqi returned to Chu, the customs there were different, and people used to call her Lady, so the people from the capital who brought her also called her again, and thus got the current mixed name.

Take your younger sister as an example, Sheng Jiuniang is the official address of elders, relatives, friends or people who have contacts, while San Miss or Sheng Jiajiu is the address of servants in the family or people outside when they have official contacts.

As for your grandfather’s Nvyingjun, that’s an earlier statement, and it’s more of a respectful name, such as Nvyingjun, Nvgongzi, etc... There are very few people who use this title now, and most people who admire the old days use it . "

Sheng Xiangxun followed up to answer the question: "Your grandfather is a person who likes retro. He calls girls in other people's families as female princes and female sons. It is even more so at home. It seems that calling him like this can make him more noble."

Hearing that Sheng Guogong likes to go back to the past, Zheng's first reaction was to think of Daqi's ethos, and he was a little worried: "Your Majesty has repeatedly stated that he does not like Daqi's legacy, but now the Dachu family is affected by that..."

Zheng's words did not continue until the end, but Sheng Xiangxun knew her worry very well. She was afraid that his father would also follow the so-called retro style that Daqi was touting. It would be terrible if the legacy was moved to the Duke's mansion.

"Don't worry, although the old man is in a daze with the surname Chang, he is very clear about big things, and he is especially good at guessing..." He pointed up with his hand, "This retro is a hobby, but he From the heart is instinct.”

Mrs. Zheng felt relieved, and when she was about to say a few more words, her second daughter asked curiously: "Father, what does Congxin mean?"

"..." Zheng wanted to laugh.

But Sheng Xiangxun just teased his daughter seriously: "Didn't you claim to be good at guessing riddles, guess what words can be combined with this?"

"Ah!" Sheng An immediately covered his mouth after reacting, and blocked the words he was going to say.

"Hahahaha." Sheng Xiangxun laughed out loud at Sister Anth's funny reaction.

"How can you tell your children this!" Zheng punched her husband dumbfounded.

The couple talked and laughed happily, but Sheng Yuan in their arms and Sheng An standing there didn't think it was so funny.

The two sisters looked at each other speechlessly, seeing "sympathy" in each other's eyes.

Fortunately, although the adults are naive, they walk very fast.

No, Sheng Yuan has already seen the chasing corridor in the grand garden of Duke Sheng's Mansion from a distance.
