Chapter 608: small feudal superstition
Mrs. Hou was ill. She was already getting old and angry frequently. She soon felt uncomfortable and couldn't get up.
She closed her eyes and leaned weakly on the head of the bed. She felt resentful towards her two daughter-in-laws, and wanted to take this opportunity to punish them. Don't think that her mother-in-law would have nothing to do with them once she had gained a firm footing. Even if they become grandmothers, they are still her daughter-in-law, and they still have to be respectful in front of her mother-in-law.
"Oh, why does my heart hurt so much? What about the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law? Let them come and take care of me." She has already thought of many ways to torture people, and she can't wait.
Qin Yushuang is so shrewd, she has been on guard against her for a long time, and she fell ill before Mrs. Hou fell ill.
Su Shi didn't want to be sick, but she didn't dare to pretend to be sick. After being tortured by her mother-in-law for a day, she gritted her teeth and blew a cool breeze for half a night, and fell ill the next day as she wished.
Only Mrs. Liu suffered, and three of the four daughters-in-law fell ill, so she was the only one who came to take care of her mother-in-law.
When the two sister-in-laws were making a fuss before, Mrs. Liu was frightened, fearing that their fourth wife would be affected, but as expected, she was caught in a catastrophe.
But she also breathed a sigh of relief, it's okay to be sick, it's okay for her to work hard, as long as it doesn't affect their father.
Ms. Hou didn't bother Qin Yushuang and Su's, and the bad breath in her heart couldn't come out. Instead, she was overwhelmed by them, and her condition became worse.
"My leg hurts, go and call Aunt Ding to rub it for me." Madam Hou ordered in a vicious voice.
Master, for the sake of the eldest son, she gritted her teeth and endured it. The second child's... a concubine's daughter-in-law, can't she handle it?
As soon as Aunt Ding arrived, she was ordered around by Mrs. Hou, and she didn't even think about it when she was free for a while, but Mrs. Liu felt relieved because of her.
What about the Su family? She doesn't care. As a concubine, it's right to serve the mistress sick, so you can make troubles, and Aunt Ding is not her own mother, so she doesn't feel bad at all.
Su Shi doesn't care about Aunt Ding, Wen Chengyao feels distressed! That was his biological mother. After half a lifetime of hard work, he was abused by his aunt. How could he feel at ease? After all, isn't it to blame the Su family? If she is not sick and takes good care of her sickness, can the mother-in-law transfer her anger on the aunt?
The couple in the second room quarreled again, Su Shi was so angry at the man during his illness, his chest felt tight, and he was almost out of breath. She thought she had avoided the big pit in front of her, but who knew if she walked forward, shit, it was still a pit!
The Marquis of Wu'an frequently invited doctors to come to the door, and outsiders noticed that three of the four mother-in-law and daughter-in-law fell ill.
So gossip spread outside, is old Wen's Feng Shui bad? Is there something wrong with the ancestral grave? Or hit something? Otherwise, why is it that no one else's family has an accident but his family has an accident?
Yu Zhi heard He Xiaodie relaying the exclamation of outsiders in a straightforward tone, and almost laughed out loud.
It is obviously a fight between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so what does it have to do with feudal superstition?
Wen Xizhou listened to it, and he was thinking: Mother’s illness has not been good, and the cause of the disease has not been found out. Is it because of these problems?
So the officials of the Hanlin Academy discovered that Wen Shizi had become diligent. He used to come in late and leave early because of family affairs, and asked for leave every now and then. Now it's the other way around, every day he is the first to come to the Hanlin Academy, and the last to leave, sitting in front of the case and studying hard every day, and he doesn't even have time to gossip with others.
What happened to Wen Shizi? Could it be... is there going to be some action on the top?
Colleagues got important news in advance, but you don't know, who can sit still?
Everyone looked at each other, secretly had an idea in their hearts, and began to study hard.
You roll, I roll too, and everyone rolls together, so that you won't be afraid of being left behind.
Well, it would be great if we could know what books Wen Shizi reads. He has someone above him, so he must be right to follow him.
Finally, someone secretly flipped through the books he had put upside down on the table while he was not in the room. Several people came over to take a look, "The Book of Houses", "The Book of Burial", "The Book of Shaking the Dragon", what the **** is this?
I also saw a few books in the back of the table case, "Eight Houses of Mirrors", "Yang Zhai Ten Books", "Boshan Chapter"... Most of these books have never been seen before, but they can guess the contents inside.
Just because they knew, how many people looked at each other in blank dismay, Wen Shizi read these books every day? Are you planning to go to Qin Tianjian? In addition to the Qin Tianjian, the imperial court may probably use these, and the other ministries don't need them at all!
Just then, Wen Xizhou came back.
The few people around his table were particularly embarrassed, and one of them said embarrassedly: "Sorry, we didn't intend to touch your book, we are really curious..."
Wen Xizhou was startled, then smiled, "It's nothing, they are all books from our Imperial Academy, everyone can ask each other for advice."
Seeing that he was not angry, the others started to talk more, "These books are relatively unorthodox, why would Wen Shizi want to read them?"
Wen Xizhou's smile remained unchanged, "I'm more interested in these recently."
interested? Several people looked at each other in blank dismay again, as expected of someone who can take the No. 1 Scholar exam, their thinking is different from others.
I am ashamed of myself, I am ashamed of myself!
Several people shook their heads and dispersed with emotion, but the smile on Wen Xizhou's face still did not fade, he picked up the book that was turned upside down and continued to read. He has seen enough, he can find someone to look at the Feng Shui in the mansion. He didn't understand anything before, and he didn't know that others lied to him.
Yu Zhi was in a good mood watching Hao Daer tossing around, moving a table today, digging a lake tomorrow, and adding a weird bottle to the shelf the day after that... After all the tossing, he went to the family to toss about the ancestral grave, and still A quiet room was set up in the yard to house the shrine...
Whoops, her elder son has become a little feudal superstition.
Yu Zhi let him toss around, and occasionally asked a few questions, made one or two suggestions, but didn't tell him that his father had already tossed about what he was doing, and it was useless.
Children, filial piety is commendable! Much encouragement isn't it?
If you don’t check, you don’t know. If you check, you will be shocked. The prince looked at the thick stack presented by the dark guard, feeling rather complicated.
The younger brother of the Sixth Emperor who only started working last year, the courtiers have a very good impression of him. He is polite and virtuous, he is a sage, he behaves well, he is humble and stable, and he has a good relationship with several important officials in private... I thought it would be harmless My good brother, I didn't expect...
It can only be said that there are no simple people in the royal family. The sixth emperor has such great ambitions from such an early age. He is not like him. If his father didn't urgently call him to Beijing, he would still want to guard the border for the rest of his life.
He thought that his position as the crown prince was still secure, but the sixth emperor did not change his ambition, quietly accumulating strength, thinking that one day he would be able to pull him off the horse and get up on his own.
It was he who underestimated this good brother.
