rich concubine

Chapter 926 Just living simply
A truly strong family will not care about glory for ten or several decades.

Retreating is to hide one's edge, rather than to be a lowly person. This is an attitude, an attitude that can be seen by the superiors.

The Chang family has been a loyal minister for hundreds of years, and has even achieved some great achievements. I think when the Qi State did not do anything, the people of the Chang family supported it with the highest voice.

It's a pity that the Chang clan has never had such ambitions. They have been pure ministers all their lives and have never thought about climbing to higher places. They don't covet that position, and they don't want to enjoy the loneliness and coldness of high places.

It can also be said that the biggest enemy of the Meng family at the time may not have been the former Qi state, but the Chang family. At that time, the Chang family held military power and had great influence in the government and the opposition. If there was a real competition between the two parties, it would surely The one who suffered heavy losses would be the rebel army at that time, the Meng family.

Just when everyone thought there would be a tough battle between the Chang family and the Meng family, at this time, the Chang family chose to retire and disappeared without a trace almost overnight, and no one knew their whereabouts. , but their legends are still circulating in the world.

People at that time probably never thought that one day the Chang family would come back, and the Chang family's girl might marry the Meng family's son.

……

After retiring and separating from the entire court, life at home has become much simpler. Everyone's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. They used to work hard for the court, but now they have more time to cultivate their own hobbies.

The atmosphere that was taken away from the officialdom slowly disappeared, and everyone became an ordinary and ordinary person.

However, when they stepped out, their aura couldn't be concealed. After all, a person with infinite dignity and supreme glory, no matter how low-key he is, his temperament is still there.

Now, returning to the capital, returning to my hometown, returning to a familiar territory, smelling the familiar smell, I will face more challenges, and my heart will naturally fluctuate.

For the older generation, coming back is to provide for old age. It has nothing to do with political intrigues or interests. They just want to live peacefully for the rest of their lives.

But for the younger generation, life has just begun, and they will face more things. And what they are facing in life now will not slip away quietly as time goes by, and will find them accurately. Everyone puts the power of decision in their hands. Some decisions have only one answer.

The generation stuck in the middle cannot stop. They provide for the elderly at the top and pave the way for the children at the bottom. They are even a hundred times busier than the younger generation.

Of course, working hard outside and making a living is generally a man's business. The daughter's family should just enjoy the days of being a girl at home and continue to maintain their unrestrained and free habits.

Ming Sihui's life is much simpler. Her parents-in-law do not need her to take care of her, her husband is not around, and she has no children. She only needs to take care of herself.

But... even she herself was surrounded by a lot of maids. She wanted to take care of herself, but when she turned around, she found that she had already been well taken care of.

It can be said that for so many years, she has no goals and nothing that she wants to accomplish. Even if she had, she knew the result from the beginning. What she thought was unfinished was actually impossible to accomplish.

It’s hard to imagine a person who has no purpose and is just living. How can he persevere in such a life?
