In the past, Shen Weiqing didn't like to talk, but now he has a lot of words, so the voice of the little guy is all over the road.
He would stick to Mu Linting and ask many things, and he would tilt his head and talk to the little boy about the outside world, how powerful his father and father were, and how big their family was...
Although the little boy couldn't speak, he would stare at Shen Weiqing motionlessly, and open his mouth silently at Shen Weiqing, which meant that he was listening carefully to Shen Weiqing's words the whole time.
Seeing this, Shen Chenyu felt resentment in her heart, and always felt that after only two years of seeing each other, his son was hooked away by outsiders. The key is that the other party is still a mute, black and thin, and looks like a clown.
Compared with his family's cute little meat buns, Shen Chenyu felt indescribably aggrieved when she thought of what would happen if she developed into a childhood sweetheart in the future.
Mu Linting and Shen Chenyu had a tacit understanding. Although the two had no verbal communication, Mu Linting still guessed his thoughts.
In fact, Mu Linting felt that Shen Chenyu was thinking too much, Shen Weiqing was only five years old this year, and that little boy was at most six years old. It is said that boys and girls do not sit at the same table until they are seven years old. Children at this age do not have any gender awareness, and it is the time when they are most innocent and like to make friends.
For those things that Shen Chenyu is worried about, these two little guys don't understand at all now, it seems too early for Shen Chenyu to worry about it now.
Although Shen Weiqing is a little brother, Mu Linting doesn't want to restrict him too much, but wants him to grow up like a boy.
He has no way to change the world, the prejudices and constraints towards his brother, but he is unwilling to kill Shen Weiqing's freedom because of these.
But even if Mu Linting thinks this way, he will still educate Shen Weiqing that men and women are different from brothers. He doesn't need to restrict the other party's freedom, but he still needs common sense and his brother's self-esteem and self-love.
...
When Shen Chenyu and the others left the small village, they chose a relatively short path and planned to return to Xiling Village from this path, but unexpectedly met bandits?
Shen Chenyu and their carriages and horses were bought in a small town. Because most of the people who take them are old and weak women and children, when choosing a carriage, I deliberately choose a more comfortable one.
It was probably because they were from a wealthy family, and there were only two men in the carriage, and one of the two men was a little old man, so this group of bandits was so bold.
Originally, Shen Chenyu didn't want to go to war, thinking that if the problem could be solved with money, he didn't want Shen Weiqing to see bloody scenes.
But what Shen Chenyu didn't expect was that the bandits not only wanted to rob money, but also wanted to rob sex. What's even more ridiculous is that the person they want to rob is not Mu Linting, but Shen Chenyu, a handsome and handsome man.
Shen Chenyu felt offended, and even wanted to jump off the carriage and fight them desperately for a moment.
A bandit yelled loudly: "Don't think that you tried to cover up the pregnancy mole, we brothers can't see that you are a brother."
"That's right, we brothers have seen a lot of brothers like you pretending to be men. You are so beautiful and you are showing off everywhere, so don't blame us for taking advantage of sex. Who told you to be dishonest? At home?"
Shen Chenyu gritted her teeth when she heard the words, whoever said good-looking is a brother, how can this group of people judge people by appearance like this?
Just when Shen Chenyu was about to jump off the horse and let them see his skills, Mu Linting rolled up his sleeves and beat them all down. Although Mu Linting also thought that Shen Chenyu was pretty, he couldn't allow others to lust over his man.
Because of the delay in catching these bandits, by the time they arrived at Xiling Village, almost five days had passed.
Mu Linting ordered several bandits to be sent to the government, and when they finally returned to Xiling Village, they found that the entire Xiling Village had changed a lot. There are not only a few more workshops in the village, but the overall size of the village is much larger.
Especially the jinshi stele at the entrance of the village, the three big and conspicuous words on it are exactly his name, Shen Chenyu was suddenly a little speechless looking at the name.
Before a few people entered the village, someone surrounded them. The expressions of each of them were as if they had been beaten with chicken blood. It was obvious that they had recognized Shen Chenyu.
"My God, it's really Yulang from the Shen family. I haven't seen him for a long time. I don't even dare to recognize him now."
"Bah, bah, Yulang of the Shen family is also something you can call him. Now, if you want to call him Mr. Shen or Zhuangyuan Shen, is there really no big or small?"
"Ah, yes, yes, you can't call me like that anymore, I have to call you my lord, I have to call you my lord!"
Because Shen Chenyu didn't wear official uniforms, and everyone was from the same village, many people didn't know the rules at all. When they realized something was wrong, they felt that it was too late to make them kneel down.
Fortunately, Shen Chenyu didn't seem angry, but just kept smiling at them with a good temper. Who knows who said something among them, and everyone remembered Mu Linting's identity.
I heard that Mu Linting's official position is higher than that of Shen Chenyu, and now he is a general of the second rank, holding the military power of a hundred thousand troops in his hands.
The people who had tripped Mu Linting before didn't know whether it was out of guilt or fear. When they saw Mu Linting who was full of evil spirits, they couldn't help but knelt down with a plop.
When one person kneels, there is a second person. In addition, Mu Linting's aura is really great, and soon there are people kneeling in front of him. In addition, Mu Linting had just won the battle, and the rumors about Mu Linting among the people were miraculous, so they were even more afraid of Mu Linting.
Seeing this, Mu Linting didn't say much to them, so he followed Shen Chenyu back to the old house. The two first went to visit the old lady, met Uncle Shen and Uncle Shen in the eldest house of the Shen family, and then met several members of the Shen family before returning to their home together.
The house in my hometown has been unoccupied for a long time. Although the big house has been helping to keep it clean, when they stepped into the courtyard, the two of them still felt a little strange.
After Dafang's workshop got bigger and bigger, he also helped to expand the yard. The small attic at the back of the yard was built by someone from the Shen family.
The two of them looked at the house in front of them, and felt mixed feelings in their hearts for a moment. Compared to the complicated moods of the two of them, Shen Weiqing on the side didn't feel anything. When they were still living in their hometown, Shen Weiqing was still a little bun, so his impression of this place was very vague.
Compared with the old houses in Xiling Village, Shen Weiqing still has an impression of the houses in Liangzhou Mansion. In his impression, the house over there was huge, much bigger than the ones he had in the village and the ones here.
Shen Chenyu didn't have time to feel more emotional, and took the two children to meet the elders of the clan in the afternoon. In the next few days, Shen Chenyu was very busy. He had to be busy with the genealogy of the youngest son at home, and also went to the town to meet some old mentors. After all these are done, the Shen family will open an ancestral hall to worship the ancestors and so on.
When worshiping ancestors according to the rules, only males can enter the ancestral hall. But because of Mu Linting's different identities, even the official position weighed heavily on Shen Yu, so Mu Linting also went to worship the ancestors.
Since the youngest son is going to be on the family tree, he needs to be given a name. Shen Chenyu's generation was a family member, and Shen Chenyu didn't change his name, but his youngest son wanted to be with the younger generation.
Below the family is the sub-generation, and now Shen's children in the sub-generation already have two children. According to the ranking, Shen Chenyu's youngest son is the third.
Zizi, in fact, is a good name. But as a husband and wife named Fei, they finally let the youngest son choose by himself. Since one sub-character has already been determined, it is enough to just use the younger son to grab another character.
The little guy caught it himself, and caught a chasing word. So he had the name Zizhui and Shen Zizhui.
Although this name is not as nice as Shen Weiqing, but because the little guy caught it himself, Shen Chenyu didn't plan to change it for him.
After worshiping the ancestors, Shen Chenyu donated a sum of money to the clan, intending to let the clan get a clan to learn it. Thinking of the passive situation in which he had to rely on others when he was studying, Shen Chenyu felt that it was best to have his own ethnology.
Most of the Shen family is now rich, and Shen Chenyu let them get a lot of sacrifice land before. The original 10-odd acres of sacrificial fields now cover nearly a hundred acres. Just the annual harvest of the hundreds of acres of sacrifice land, plus the sum of money Shen Chenyu gave just now, can completely set up a good ethnology.
When Shen Chenyu was discussing ethnology with the clan, many wealthy local businessmen came to visit one after another. Although Shen Chenyu is in the capital now, he is also the number one scholar there. Whether they want to make friends with Shen Chenyu or want to make a good impression on Shen Chenyu, these wealthy businessmen will come to visit with gifts.
The Shen family had held a running water banquet before, but since it was not held by the Lord, most of the people who came were acquaintances. Now that Shen Chenyu is finally back, the banquet that was missed before still needs to be arranged properly.
Fortunately, there is no need for my family to organize the banquet now. Shen Chenyu directly booked a restaurant in Qingcheng County, and left the rest to the restaurant.
The purpose of this kind of banquet is not only to celebrate, but also to receive gifts. Although Shen Chenyu doesn't lack these things, he can make many friends through this banquet.
The banquet lasted for six days, Shen Chenyu spent thousands of taels of silver, but got back ten times more than before. This is still on the premise that you can't accept too expensive gifts, otherwise you can get rich overnight just by receiving gifts.
Shen Chenyu's banquet was held in such a grand manner, it's impossible for the Shen family in Qingcheng County not to know about it. But because of Shen Chenyu's treatment of his parents like that, these people didn't dare to show their faces even though they were unhappy in their hearts.
Even some of the original owner's classmates, those who had bullied the original owner a lot, shrank their heads and dared not come out this time. I'm afraid that they will hit the wooden warehouse at this time, and Shen Chenyu will find revenge on them if she is unhappy.
However, no matter how they struggled one by one, many people in Qingcheng County knew about the enmity between them and Shen Chenyu.
Especially when Shen Chenyu sued her adoptive mother before, the Liangzhou government sent people to investigate at that time. Now Shen Chenyu is holding a banquet in Qingcheng County, but he didn't mention the Shen family in Qingcheng County at all. Many people understood Shen Chenyu's attitude.
So before Shen Chenyu thought of them, many people began to help Shen Chenyu vent her anger. Not to mention whether they really helped Shen Chenyu, or they just wanted to join in the fun, anyway, the life of the Shen family in Qingcheng County will be very difficult for the next period of time.
But Shen Chenyu didn't care about these things, after he was finally free, he was busy helping Shen Jiayao to look at others.
In fact, after Shen Chenyu was elected, the Shen family in Xiling Village made an appointment for Shen Jiayao. It's just a pity that before the two of them got married, the man made a concubine.
Shen Jiayao was spoiled by his aunt, and Shen Jiayue and Shen Chenyu only married one, so he unilaterally divorced without hesitation.
Uncle Shen also felt that the man's family was too much. Seeing that the two of them were about to get married, such a incident happened to embarrass them. Didn't this mean to make their Shen family ashamed?
If their Shen family was still the old Shen family, apart from honestly retiring the engagement after such a thing happened, they would not dare to complain to the man.
But later, Shen Chenyu passed the examination, and the Shen family in Xiling Village became more and more confident. Not only did they go to the man's house to make a big fuss, but they also quarreled with the Shen family in Qingcheng County later.
Looking at the Shen family in Qingcheng County, who was cowed by their fright, and recalling Shen Chenyu's father who was killed by the Shen family in Qingcheng County, the Shen family in Xiling Village only felt a sigh of relief.
However, although the anger was relieved by making a big fuss, the reputation of the Shen family as not easy to mess with has also spread. As a result, two years have passed, and Shen Jiayao still hasn't looked after him.
While Shen Chenyu was drawing drawings for Shen Jiayu, she couldn't help shaking her head when she heard the words. He handed Shen Jiayue the few blueprints he had drawn, before he went to see Shen Jiayao.
Due to the improvement of the Shen family's family situation in the past few years, there are maids and women who have been taking care of Shen Jiayao, and Shen Jiayao has become much more beautiful than before. But this beauty can only be considered average, after all, Shen Jiayao's foundation has always been there, no matter how well raised she is, she cannot become a fairy.
When Shen Chenyu was worried about the other party's marriage, Chen Youli suddenly came to the door with a few classmates. As soon as Shen Chenyu heard that several senior brothers were coming, she immediately asked her servants to prepare good wine and food for them.
Then when the few people were eating and drinking, Shen Chenyu asked about their recent situation by accident, and looked at senior brother Lin Chengmo while asking.
After not seeing each other for several years, most of them have married and established businesses. Even Lin Chengmo, who was miserably failed in the rankings, has now been admitted as a scholar.
As soon as she heard that Lin Chengmo was not married yet, Shen Chenyu's eyes couldn't help but light up. In fact, Shen Chenyu really didn't want to be a matchmaker, but Shen Jiayao would call him brother no matter what, he couldn't watch the other party marry casually.
Knowing that women and brothers in this world are not easy, Shen Chenyu still hopes that the other party can marry a good man.
Lin Chengmo, who was inexplicably picked up for the marriage, looked at his junior brother with a blank expression, not understanding what Shen Chenyu was talking about.
"Hey, I'm dissatisfied with my brothers, my uncle's family has a brother..."
Shen Chenyu has never seen each other with them, and they have always treated Shen Chenyu very well. So even if Shen Chenyu became a high official, they still regarded Shen Chenyu as that little junior.
It is also because they know that they have good characters, and they are all rare and good-natured, otherwise Shen Chenyu wouldn't make up their minds.
Lin Chengmo's face was a little hot when he heard that, he was really not young among the few people. Shen Chenyu has two children now, but he hasn't had a shadow yet.
To be honest, if the in-laws were the Shen family, it would be a great thing for Lin Chengmo. But he is not the kind of person who climbs the dragon and attaches himself to the phoenix, and he can't sacrifice his marriage for his own future, so he was a little flustered when he heard Shen Chenyu's words.
"Junior Brother Shen, I... I'm not that kind of person, and I don't know if it's suitable."
Lin Chengmo was a little at a loss. While he wanted to explain that he didn't climb the dragon and the phoenix, he was also worried that if he directly rejected Shen Chenyu, it would appear that he disliked the elder brother of the Shen family.
Just as Lin Chengmo was explaining clumsily, Mu Linting walked in with Shen Jiayue and wine. Shen Chenyu didn't have too many rules in his hometown, and he never forbade Mu Linting to eat with men at the wine table just because Mu Linting was a brother.
When Mu Linting and Shen Jiayao came back, they were also called by Shen Chenyu. According to the rules, Shen Jiayao is not married, so it is not suitable to appear here at all.
But Shen Chenyu felt that the most important thing to see someone was Shen Jiayao. Otherwise, if the two sides are smeared, they will not know anything, and they will not be able to live a good life if they just go together.
Who knows who the other party is, if it happens to be the type you hate the most, it won't be a big deal for two people to look at each other and hate each other?
Anyway, Shen Jiayao's reputation is not good, if there is really no way to find a suitable one in Qingcheng County, at worst, Shen Chenyu will take him to the capital.
Anyway, the transportation in ancient times was inconvenient. Who would know his reputation if the sky is high and the road is far away? Shen Chenyu can say whatever he wants.
With such a slightly arrogant idea, Shen Chenyu specially asked Shen Jiayue to come over and have a look. What if... what if the two see each other right, then Shen Chenyu will solve a big problem.
