The wife of a woman collecting herbs cannot be bullied

Chapter 428

The next day, Shi Chuying received a post for a banquet before waiting for the news of coming to the Lin family.

Shi Chuying repeatedly read the big red stamped post in her hand twice, and couldn't help but wonder, which is this 'Lianzhou Mengfu'?Why never heard of it?What does their child's full moon have to do with our house?
Even she, the mistress of the house, didn't know, and the girl beside her was even more confused.Shi Chuying had no choice but to hold up the post and ask someone who was leaning on the couch in front of the window to read the military book: "Who is this Meng family? Does it have any relationship with our family? I don't remember this family in the past. of."

The post was brought back by Chu Xu not long after he went to the front yard early in the morning, saying that it was sent directly to his grandfather.Don't ask who he is asking.

Hearing her question, Chu Xu took his eyes away from the book of war and thought for a moment, Yingying should have memorized all the meritorious dignitaries in the capital and the first-class families, but Yingying may not be clear about these second- and third-rate so-called centuries-old families.

Thinking of this, Chu Xu waved back his servants and waved at Shi Chuying: "It's a long story, let's talk slowly."

Shi Chuying walked over slowly, Chu Xu helped her sit down, took the post from her hand, and pointed out: "The Meng family in Lianzhou is a big family in the northwest, and it has lasted for hundreds of years. A first-class noble family for hundreds of years, but it is still very famous in the northwest.

The ancestors of the Meng family used to be elders, but they weakened in the previous dynasty. However, in recent generations, the descendants of the clan have shown signs of rising, and several imperial examinations have given rise to Jinshi.Now there are children who are officials in Beijing, even if they only reach the sixth rank, it is not easy. "After all, there are more honorable families in the capital than dogs, so being able to gain a foothold is considered a skill.

"The current head of the Meng family is Meng Chang, the former servant of the Ministry of Rites who has already retired. Mr. Meng was a Jinshi during the Xiande period. He went from official to minister of the Ministry of Officials. Although he left the field with the Supreme Emperor, he still has some contacts. Therefore, , as long as the children of the clan are promising, they should be able to make further progress in their official careers."

Shi Chuying gently caressed her stomach, which was a new habit she formed, thinking about what Chu Xu said in her heart.Then I heard Chu Xu say again: "Speaking of it earlier, our ancestors before the Supreme Emperor were indeed more enthusiastic about these literati families than the meritorious dignitaries, so that the ancestors of the Meng family had no friendship with our ancestors. strangeness."

After all, they are authentic princes and grandchildren, who wouldn't like to associate with them?If there is no major change, friendship must always be maintained.

"...The old man and our grandfather are also old acquaintances, and the two sons of the old man, Meng Dian and Meng Jia, were also Jinshi during Xiande's reign, and they were relatively close to uncle, father and third uncle. Zhi was demoted to nobility, and the Meng family did not follow suit, but kept a low profile."

This kind of people and things are the most rare, but it is not surprising, after all, no one can ask people to be as high-profile as before, isn't that just playing against the boss?No one has the guts.Including their family, those who have families and clans must always consider the interests of the family first in everything. It is not bad to think about maintaining friendship when a certain family is at a low point.

Both Shi Chuying and Chu Xu could understand this.

Therefore, Chu Xu said: "It is enough for you to know a little about the past. As for this post... I heard what my grandfather said. The second master, Meng Xin, who is now in the third room of the Meng family, passed away a few years ago. , so far there is no continuation..."

Shi Chuying couldn't help staring at Chu Xu with wide eyes, "You mean, grandfather wants to marry the Meng family? Then how old is Second Master Meng? He hasn't remarried for several years..."

Hearing her series of questions, Chu Xu couldn't help but tapped the tip of her nose, and said, "You really care about that Second Master Meng. It doesn't matter how old he is!"

Shi Chuying slapped it with her hand, and said with a smile: "The kitchen must have knocked over the vinegar jar, the sour smell is sour..."

"Cough!" Chu Xu gritted his teeth and gnawed her on the cheek, "Just talking!" But after thinking about it, he explained: "Meng Erye is twenty-six this year. Your husband doesn't know anything else."

Shi Chuying was fascinated after hearing this, and couldn't help but lightly beat her waist a few times. Seeing this, Chu Xu hurriedly asked, "But is your waist sore?"

"Well, I haven't been sitting for a long time now, I just want to lean on it to be more comfortable, and it will be comfortable for a while if I really lean on it." Shi Chuying came back to her senses and couldn't help complaining.

As Grandma Zeng said, she is considered lucky. Many pregnant women are not at home when their husbands are pregnant, and they all rely on one person to support them. The hardships involved are beyond words.

Chu Xu had already spontaneously moved behind her, gently kneaded her waist, and asked, "How is it? Is it more comfortable?"

Shi Chuying felt the heat from Chu Xu's palm, as if drinking honey water in her heart, she looked back and smiled, "It's much more comfortable."

Then he went on to say: "Sister Man is the only one in our family who wants to be a relative, right? Does Second Master Meng have any heirs? Also, if Sister Man's body wants to have children, I'm afraid it will take a while for her to take care of her. Can't wait."

Chu Xu let out a 'hmm', thought for a while, and said: "With the nourishment of your medicine and supplements for the past six months, Sister Man's body has recovered quite well, and it will be almost healed in another year or so.

After all, she is a girl's family. Although my grandfather picked her up, how many years can my grandfather take care of her at this age?
To be honest, if one day her grandfather went away, although she had her own father and elder brother, she would always have her sister-in-law, nephew and niece, so she would feel uncomfortable after all.It's better to find a good family and remarry while my grandfather is here, and I will have someone to rely on in the future. "

"So, grandfather is also here to see the marriage for Sister Man this time?" Shi Chuying couldn't help being surprised.

"Half and half. The situation in Beijing is unclear now. My grandfather left me here, so I naturally want to hide. It's common sense to look at others along the way."

Shi Chuying took Chu Xu's hand, wrapped it around her waist, and leaned against him, letting his breath wrap her, sighed comfortably, and said, "Then... the Meng family knows that Sister Man What about her past? Also, how did Second Grandma Meng get there? Did any of her children stay? No matter how bad our Sister Man is, she is still the daughter of the clan, and even if she remarries, she has to choose carefully, so as not to hurt others even more if she doesn't do well in the future."

Shi Chuying has read a lot of house fighting stories, and it is inevitable to think about her conspiracy.

"You're right. Grandfather also wanted to know more about it. So, since we've been lately, I have to trouble Ying Ying to take a look.

After all, women have to spend their whole lives in the back house, and men can only find out about the things in the back house.If you want to know some details, you will have to work hard. "
