Chapter 30 First acquaintance with Sheng Hong
Yuan Wenshu and others were standing outside the main gate of Zhongjing Bo Mansion, Yuan Wenchun suddenly spoke, "By the way, Sanlang, you are now at the door, you are qualified to be a halberd, right?"
"It's true. I am now a hereditary count and have military power. I can indeed arrange five pairs of halberds on both sides."
After hearing Yuan Wenchun's words, Yuan Wenshu remembered that at that time, the two sides of his Earl's Mansion could be lined up. You should know that this is not a show that ordinary people can use. First of all, the Yuan family does not have it.
If you want to be a halberd, you must first have a title, or a hereditary title. Then you must either be a frontier marshal or have military power in this capital. The reason for this is that when the founding of the country, all the nobles led the troops, and the hereditary titles did not reflect the pomp of this halberd, so a restriction was added to have military power in the capital.
The podium of these halberds was immediately established. You must know who could stay in the capital to lead troops when the country was founded. Except for a few frontier marshals, they must be the one who can fight the most and win the holy heart.
As for the regulations of this halberd, the Counts are five pairs, the marquis are six pairs, the dukes are seven pairs, the kings are eight pairs, the crown princes are nine pairs, and the emperors are twelve pairs.
Yuan Wenshu was just saying this, but he saw a person coming out of the door. He looked like a middle-aged man in a bookish spirit. He looked like a handsome man when he was young.
At this time, the second sister-in-law was stunned when she saw the visitor and bowed, "Father." The second brother also reacted and said, "My father-in-law."
As for Yuan Wenchun, he seemed much more casual, but he was absolutely thoughtful and praised: "Uncle Sheng".
At this time, Yuan Wenshu knew that the time was coming for performance, so he bowed and said, "Is this the uncle of the Sheng family, the second sister-in-law's father, and the nephew Yuan Wenshu is polite."
After hearing Yuan Wenshu's words, the expressions of the people were different. Yuan Wenchun and the other two frowned and were a little surprised, while Yuan Wenshao and the other two were surprised.
Especially her second sister-in-law Sheng Hualan was a little overjoyed, because in her opinion, the reason why Yuan Wenshu respects his father so much is for her own sake.
So while she was happy, she felt grateful to the third uncle who was not very familiar with. That's right, she was grateful to him for respecting his father.
You must know what my father is doing, and is building a mansion for this third uncle. Although it was the court's decree, it was a little embarrassed. Now that Yuan Wenshu said this, the embarrassment ended before he could get up.
Sheng Hong was stunned when he heard the name of this man and his name, but immediately reacted and said, "It turns out that the owner of this mansion, Bo Zhongjing, has arrived. The subordinates are in trouble to welcome him." As he said that, he was about to salute. What's the point?
Yuan Wenshu quickly turned sideways and gave the gift out and immediately said, "Uncle, don't be so disgusted. Since you are the father of your second sister-in-law, then you and my family are in-laws. You are so polite, your nephew can't stand it. You should call me Sanlang, it sounds more pleasant."
After being polite for a while, finally, Sheng Hong changed his name to Sanlang. Yuan Wenshu felt relieved. This person is famously petty. If he had the title of the count in front of him today, he would not have wanted him to help in the future.
Then several people went into the mansion together for a tour, Yuan Wenshu said to Sheng Hong: "Uncle Sheng, I want to visit your mansion tomorrow. I wonder what you are thinking?"
"Oh, of course I welcome you, then I will wait for Saburo in the mansion tomorrow."
"Then I'll bother my uncle."
After saying that, Yuan Wenshu said to Yuan Wenshao: "Second brother, why don't you go to your uncle's house with your second sister-in-law today? So I'll come back together tomorrow?"
Yuan Wenshao understood as soon as he heard this, his younger brother gave him enough face. He actually didn't want to go there, but since he met him and didn't go to visit him, he seemed ungrateful and disrespectful to his father-in-law.
But that was just Yuan Wenshao's self-conception. In fact, Yuan Wenshu was eager to go there quickly, but it was not good that he seemed too enthusiastic, so he could only show that he had to go there by giving his second brother face.
At this time, Yuan Wenchun also realized that Yuan Wenshu was giving face to the second wife, so he put away some small thoughts.
Of course, there are always many smart people. Sheng Hong and Sheng Hualan are not fools, but they are also very happy that Yuan Wenshu can give face, but it is only because it can be seen from this that Yuan Wenshu and his eldest son-in-law (official) are really good.
After a while, Yuan Wenchun and Yuan Wenshu went back, and Yuan Wenshao and his wife had to wait for Sheng Hong to take office.
On the way back, Yuan Wenshu said to Yuan Wenchun: "Do you know how many in-laws there are in Beijing? I might as well take advantage of the holiday and visit it, so I can save trouble?"
Yuan Wenchun really confirmed at this time that his younger brother really didn't want to go, but because of the second wife, he had to go, so he quickly explained: "Our family in Beijing is worth going to the Sheng family. When our family was searched, no one of the people had helped them, but they had long been broken."
When Yuan Wenshu heard that it was a good thing, he would save a bunch of messy Yuan relatives from asking for him.
I went back to the mansion and told my father and mother about what happened today. Although Mrs. Yuan complained a lot, I felt a little happy to see Sanlang having such a good relationship with his son.
After a night like this, Yuan Wenshu got up early the next morning and prepared the gifts and some precautions he brought. Just as Mrs. Yuan was about to send someone to ask him to go, Yuan Wenshu was confused and went to Mrs. Yuan's room to greet him and then sat down.
Madam Yuan said, "Sanlang, you should be more careful when you go to the Sheng family this time and avoid the six girls of the Sheng family."
"Huh?" Yuan Wenshu heard that something was wrong. I went there for her. Why did I go away from her?
"Oh? Why is this mother?" Looking at Yuan Wenshu's puzzled look, Mrs. Yuan spoke: "You just returned to Beijing so I don't know,
Some time ago, there was a lot of controversy in Kyoto. The six girls of the Sheng family and the young master of the Duke of Qi's mansion made a lifelong decision."
"I was discovered by the Princess Pingning of the Duke of Qi's Mansion. I broke it apart and even beat the book boy who grew up with Duke Qi to death."
"So the sixth girl of the Sheng family is not well-known now. Don't get involved with her. Sanlang Sanlang? Did you hear that?" Grandma Yuan looked at Yuan Wenshu in a daze and pushed him.
Yuan Wenshu replied perfunctorily: "I know my mother."
Then he left Madam Yuan's yard and returned to his room. At this time, Yuan Wenshu had time to think about this matter and came back late, so all his previous plans were invalid.
Now she was heartbroken. Later, Gu wasted his energy and made her heart recover. It was now her turn.
Now Yuan Wenshu's mind was in a mess, and he was thinking of a solution, but the news was too sudden and he had no good idea for a while, so he could only take one step at a time.
