Pastoral affairs

If Mrs. Xu had been prepared, it would be easy to talk about this matter, but in a hurry, you have to look for someone with good character, not bad background and status, and you have to be of the same age, and you are willing to offend Feng and Wang Guogong. There are very few people in the Qin family who are engaged.After a few days, Nie Qiuran agreed to help talk about Xiang, which was considered to be the return of Qin Huai's favor at the beginning, but the Xu family did not find anyone to engage him, so Nie Qiuran was willing to talk about Xiang, but in the end, it was the daughter of the Qin family who wanted to talk about it. It's only when they go out for a kiss, otherwise, Nie Qiuran is willing to help, and he can't find an excuse.

Mrs. Xu was used to being flattered and fawned on in Dingzhou, but she didn't expect to feel aggrieved everywhere after entering Beijing. First, she hit a wall on Cui Wei, and now even Mrs. Feng wants to step on her. The feeling in Mrs. Xu's heart Naturally, one can imagine.She was so angry that her teeth were itching now, but there was nothing she could do.It was too far away from Dingzhou, Mrs. Xu was so busy that she sent a letter back and met her in Beijing.

After a period of time, Xu was haggard physically and mentally.The Xu family refused to help this time, so the Xu family has tasted the taste. She claims to be from a family of officials, and she is usually superior to others, but she didn't expect that she would have to bow her head in front of the Duke's mansion at this time. The feeling in her heart is natural No need to mention it.

At this time, Mrs. Xu got angry with anxiety. On the contrary, Cui Wei had a good time during this time. With her children, her mood was somewhat different. Compared with the uncertainty about this strange time and space before, Now that she has children, she feels that her heart has settled down. The Xu family came to ask her for help. For Qin Huai's sake, she also agreed. She thought it would be difficult.But unexpectedly, when Feng Shi heard her mention it, he agreed happily. After Cui Wei asked someone to reply to Xu Shi's side, he didn't take it to heart. Ready to provoke Cui Jingping's daughter-in-law.

She has no shortage of money now, and she has lived in Beijing for another year, and she has become familiar with the scene in Beijing, and Luo Xuan is behind her.It's not difficult to find a wife for Cui Jingping, most of them are people who want to cling to the powerful and want to get in touch with them and send their daughters here. It's just that Cui Wei looks down on such people and is afraid of getting into trouble. .

A few days after the children's full moon, the weather gradually warmed up.It's just that Shangjing is originally located in the north, which is much colder than the south. Therefore, in March, it is colder than in January and February in Xiaowan Village in previous years, and no one in the house dared to remove their jackets.Two nannies and a group of maids hugged the baby and played with Cui Wei. The newborn baby really looks different every day.It looked like a small lump at the beginning, less than two months old.It has only been two months, and it has already grown into a jade carving.

Cui Wei hugged her daughter in her arms, seeing that she was sleeping soundly at the moment, she couldn't help but poke the child's face lovingly, and there was a girl on the other side jokingly said: "The little lady looks so good, but she is not as good as the old man." Somewhat alike." The two children are a bit like Nie Qiuran, but they have worked hard to have a child, but they are not like themselves.Cui Wei was also a little depressed when she heard people say this.Suddenly the corner of his mouth twitched.Several people in this room were chatting gossip, and the atmosphere was harmonious, but for some reason, the topic came to Mrs. Xu.

Recently, the Qin family has gained a great reputation in the capital. The news that the Xu family wanted to marry their daughter in the capital spread all over the capital overnight, making a fool of themselves and being ridiculed.Cui Wei was very clear in her heart, she knew that Xu Shi was being punished by someone, and she didn't know who she offended secretly, deliberately punishing her like this, now Xu's reputation of disliking the poor and loving the rich has spread all over the capital, How could she find a good son-in-law for her daughter all of a sudden, she was crying until tears were shed. The servants around Cui Wei knew this matter very well, and they also knew that the person Xu's disliked before was It was Cui Jingping, so he deliberately took this matter to tease her:

"I heard that Mrs. Qin has found a son-in-law who suits her wishes recently. I heard that a supervisory envoy named Lu Jin in Yushitai has proposed marriage to Mrs. Qin, and it is said that Mrs. Qin has already agreed." The girl in the house It's okay to inquire about these things. Besides, Qin Shuyu's marriage has been spread all over the capital. Few people don't know it. Many people know many details very well, but Cui Wei's eyes are on a pair of eyes. Regarding her children, she deliberately didn't want to hear about the affairs of the Qin family, so it was the first time she heard such a statement at this moment, and she was immediately stunned.

"What? Miss Qin was actually promised to Lu Jin?" Cui Wei also lived in Beijing for a year, and she has heard of Lu Jin's reputation, but this reputation is not a good one, but rather a bad one. up.This Lu Jin was originally a Jinshi in the seventh year of Zhengde. He was upright and serious. His family was very poor since he was a child. He was brought up by his widowed mother. , and very stubborn, he can't see some private matters, even if there is some petty filth among his colleagues, he has to speak out, so he offended many people, and finally he couldn't get along in the Imperial Academy, and was kicked out.

This person is indeed talented, and he is not very old. Emperor Zhengde cherished his talent and couldn't bear to send him back to his hometown, so he saw his character and sent him to the Imperial Envoy Taizhong.Originally, the supervisory envoys were generally reporting the faults of bureaucrats and dignitaries, and giving opinions to the emperor. It can be said that they are the eyes of the emperor.Although the official is not big, he is only from the fifth rank, but because he can directly sue the imperial court, his status is quite special.Emperor Zhengde saw that Lu Jin was extremely resolute, he would rather give up than give up, and he was not afraid of offending the powerful, and he was not afraid of death. He should have been a good material to be an imperial envoy. It's also bad here.

Lu Jin is stubborn, he doesn't know how to turn, he is upright, he has never accepted bribes, I am afraid that in the entire capital, he is the only one who dares to claim a clean reputation. I don't know him very well, and he often has a straight face and is unreasonable. No matter who is caught by him, he will go to the front of the palace. Because of Lu Jin's lack of oil and salt, many people in Beijing People hated him deeply, there was no dignitary in Shangjing who had not been joined by him, as long as there was a slight mistake, even if a servant under the door committed a crime, Lu Jin would also play in front of the hall, causing everyone a headache.

At the beginning, Emperor Zhengde punished a few nobles who committed crimes. He was quite proud of his decision in his heart, and he had to reward Lu Jin once more, but he was pushed back by Lu Jin's righteous words, making him so embarrassing. The son was a laughingstock in Beijing, and everyone called Lu Jin a black dog behind his back, to the effect that he would bite anyone he caught, and he was ruthless.

The current emperor also has a headache for this person. Lu Jin doesn't care, as long as the other party makes a mistake, he will intervene. Some people are clearly comforted by him, and he has to pretend not to know about some things. The trouble made everyone feel awkward, not to mention the fact that the emperor is getting old, he just wants to be calm, and he doesn't want to make trouble all day long, and in the end he doesn't like to wipe Lu Jin's ass anymore, instead he decided to monitor it in the future The imperial envoy came with the decree that he was not allowed to enter the palace without important matters related to the military and the country, which made Lu Jin calm down a lot, but everyone in Beijing still hated him, but this person behaved righteously, sat upright, and had a great reputation. It's not easy to play tricks behind his back, so there is nothing he can do about him.

Cui Wei actually admires this person very much. After all, she can not be greedy for a penny, and her personality is not afraid of power and life. She cherishes her life very much. Here, Lu Jin didn't let her go because she admired people like Lu Jin in her heart. After she became pregnant, Lu Jin read a book. Cui Wei gritted her teeth once when her children received silver and other things at the full moon, and secretly married ministers.

"Isn't it Lu Heimian? I heard that this Lu Yushi is now in his thirties, and he is more than half older than the little lady of the Qin family. It's really a pity for the little lady of the Qin family." Everyone saw Cui Wei After answering this question, he was immediately refreshed, and started talking again: "But I heard that he has only a widowed mother, and life is very difficult now, and he has not married a wife yet." Lu Jin never corrupted in his life, He doesn't collect money behind his back, even if he can live in the house that a fifth-rank official should have, but the annual salary is not enough for the family's expenses. I heard that the mansion can't even support the servants and maids that should have been separated from the palace, so there is only one around. His long-term follower for many years, Mrs. Lu's mother Hou, is now old enough to wash and cook by herself, and her life is really miserable. How can anyone marry into such a family.

The girls started talking one after the other, laughing as they spoke: "Now the young lady of the Qin family is out of luck. The servant girl sees that she has a dignified appearance and a good temperament. I can't find any young man." Come on, I want to talk about going to Lu's house." This servant is a third-class girl who waits in the house, and when she spoke, many people also laughed.Cui Wei didn't bother them, and let them gossip, but Bizhi interjected: "I think Mr. Lu is not bad, he is nearly thirty years old, but his family heard that he only has one concubine and no eldest son." It is not easy to be born at his age, and he is very clean and self-sufficient!"

Bi Liu just laughed: "I have no money and can't afford it!" These words made everyone laugh again.Cui Wei's expression gradually became dazed. Qin Shuyu, an innocent and lovely girl, should be married to a man who is extremely rigid and not young enough to be her father. It is indeed aggrieved.Moreover, Lu Jin had to be raised by a widowed mother. Generally, such a man, especially one with a resolute personality like Lu Jin, is absolutely filial to his mother, and his temperament is serious. A lively and lovely girl like Qin Shuyu would marry Going to such a family, I'm afraid you have to suffer a lot.

Although Lu Jin is an upright person, to put it nicely, such a person has strength of character and principles, but to put it bluntly, he is ignorant and stubborn. If he becomes an official, it will be of great benefit to the common people. But if he is a husband and a family member, I am afraid that the people will think of him well, but the family will have to suffer. (To be continued.
