Chapter 969 Aunt Kang is full of superiority!

Everyone got on the carriage and returned to the Sheng family. The men were drinking tea in the main hall, while the women went to the backyard to reminisce about the past.

The servants began to carry things inside one after another, and the stewards of each hospital were directing.

"That box contains Madam's favorite tea cup. No one can afford it if it breaks~"

"Oh!"

"Oh, you idiot, this is the eldest son's book. Check to see if there is any damage inside?"

"Are you blind? If you touch something in our Linqi Pavilion..."

The noisy sound outside made Yuan Wenshao, who was sitting on the chair on the left side of the hall, frown and feel even more unhappy. This was a bit too unruly.

Sheng Hong, who was in charge, also noticed something was wrong. There was a hint of helplessness in his eyes. He knew without guessing that his wife must have forgotten everything when her daughter came back.

So he quickly turned around and said: "Dong Rong, send someone to the backyard to report to the eldest lady!"

And here, Sheng Wei, who specially sent his younger brother to Beijing, was chatting with his niece and son-in-law sitting beside him, and never left his son.

"Zhongxuan, since my parents Wu came back last time, I have been playing with the sword you gave me every day. Usually it is very precious and no one else can touch it~"

"Uncle, it's fine if my brother Changwu likes it. That blacksmith shop has good craftsmanship. I'm going to ask someone to make a long gun later. When you leave, ask me to bring it to Changwu. If you join the army in the future, you should practice more with long handles. Device~"

"Okay, okay, cause trouble for you!"

"Uncle, you are too polite~"

Yuan Wenshao really likes chatting with Sheng Wei, probably because he has been doing business. He never lets his words fall to the ground, which makes you feel very comfortable.

With this person who is good at dancing and dancing around, the atmosphere in the room has never been cold, and we have a lot of fun chatting with each other.

As soon as Yuan Wenshao finished speaking, he turned around and saw the two brothers-in-law sitting opposite. Their behavior could be said to be completely opposite. From this, we can see the importance of education.

No matter how impatient and careless Mrs. Wang, her mother-in-law, was, she was also the legitimate daughter of a wealthy family, and her children were all good. She didn't see Chang Bai sitting there in a polite manner.

As for Sheng Changfeng, the daughter-in-law, although he is not a legitimate son in terms of clothing, he is already 12 years old at this time. His parents are both good-looking, so he is not much different. It can be said that he is a handsome boy.

But there seemed to be nails under the butt, moving back and forth to the left and right, eating a pastry and drinking tea. In short, compared with the brother next to him, he was almost blind.

After retracting his gaze, Yuan Wenshao shook his head slightly, and then brought up other topics.

"Father-in-law, after you come to Beijing, which academy do you plan to send Zicheng to? Don't delay your studies. Please tell me where your son-in-law can help!"

"Well, Zhongxuan is interested!"

Hearing what his son-in-law said, Sheng Hong was very happy as he stroked his beard.

What he is most proud of is his eldest son. He has been smart and sensible since he was a child, and he has been raising him with great care. This child has lived up to his expectations. In terms of his academic time, there is nothing to say. All the teachers he has taught have spoken highly of him.

I felt extremely proud of my upcoming arrangements, so my next words were a bit showy.

"We don't plan to let Chang Bai go to school. Zhuang Xuexue has agreed to come to our home as a private tutor, so that he can have a good environment at home~"

"Father-in-law, are you talking about Mr. Da Ruzhuang?"

"Well, that's the person~"

"Oh, it's not easy to invite him. As far as I know, Lian Guogong used to ask for a thousand qian a year, and Zhuang Xuexue didn't agree!" Yuan Wenshao also said this deliberately, and we just talked about it anyway.

As expected, these words scratched Sheng Hong's itch. Hearing his son-in-law's compliment made him feel elated, but he still pretended to be modest on the surface.

"It's nothing. My father once had an old friendship with Zhuang Xuexue, so he agreed to teach in a private school for a few years!"

A few people chatted for a while, and then a nanny walked in from outside.

He bowed and saluted: "Master, the food is ready. Madam, please come over and have a meal~"

"Okay!" Sheng Hong nodded, and then didn't think much about getting up and looking to the right.

"Brother, Zhongxuan, let's go over to eat. We must have two more drinks today~"

Because Yuan Wenshao and Hua Lan had already gotten married, it was considered a family dinner, so there was no rule that men and women could not sit at the same table. They all went to the dining room in the inner courtyard, where many people were already sitting.

Everyone has just met. The old lady and several young children are not here. Sitting next to the mother-in-law Wang Ruofu is a strange woman. She looks to be in her 30s, and she still has some charm.

Madam Wang stood up from her chair and introduced, "Zhongxuan, this is my sister and Hua'er's aunt!"

"I've met Aunt Kang~" Yuan Wenshao said and sat directly next to his wife.

Aunt Kang was particularly arrogant. She didn't stand up when she heard the greeting, but just nodded in response.

She felt that her mother-in-law's father was worthy of enjoying the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and her husband's father-in-law had been a second-rank official before. Being able to eat at the same table with a small eighth-rank official, she thought she looked up to him.

But Sheng Hong's face was not so good. He was a scholar and he was very strict about some things. If he had known that his sister-in-law would come over, he would not have made such an arrangement. After all, his eldest brother was still standing by.

Sheng Wei on the side reacted quickly and quickly made an excuse to leave.

This meal was an embarrassment, but Aunt Kang felt good about herself. She kept talking to her sister arrogantly, showing off how her family was doing...

Yuan Wenshao was still a little puzzled. He was not surprised that Aunt Kang came over. He was just wondering why she was alone. After thinking about it carefully, it made sense.

Uncle Kang's family background was also quite good. Before becoming an official, the late Mr. Kang was a second-grade minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and a high school scholar in the Taizong Dynasty. Since then, he had a prosperous career in officialdom.

As the only legitimate son of the Kang family, he was under the care of the old man when he was young. He was somewhat talented. He was a high school scholar at the age of 24 and ranked higher than Father Sheng in the imperial examination. At that time, ladies from famous families were vying to marry him.

But since his father passed away, this guy started to let himself go. Uncle Kang, who had never suffered any hardship, spent money lavishly every day. He carried countless concubines to the courtyard all day long. There were so many concubines and concubines that he probably couldn't recognize them all.

In addition to eating, drinking, having fun, and raising Qing Ke Xianggong, in more than ten years, all the wealth that Mrs. Kang had saved during his nearly 40 years as an official was squandered, leaving only an empty shell. He was a famous prodigal son in Bianjing City. .

Even Yuan Wenshao had to admire him. I heard that this man had to spend an average of 100 yuan a day before, which was equivalent to his salary for one year from the seventh grade.

That's not even the most important thing. He spent a lot of time and alcohol when he was worried. Of course, you could just do it secretly, and the censor didn't have time to talk to you.

Even if he got his concubine pregnant, it wouldn't be a big deal if he aborted the child ruthlessly. However, Uncle Kang was still a love interest and insisted on giving birth to her child no matter what, which gave the family's political enemies an excuse.

Therefore, even though the three-year filial piety period has passed, every time he wanted to come back, someone would join him. Even if the officials wanted to see Mr. Kang's favor again, there was nothing they could do, which resulted in him remaining idle to this day.

I was probably embarrassed not to come this time. After all, I looked down upon my father-in-law Sheng Hong the most before, but his family is getting better and better now, but his own family is getting worse day by day.
