Volume B Chapter 27 The parents have shortcomings (Fourth update!)
Feng Ziying did take half-day leave and went home.
Ordinary scholars are basically not allowed to ask for leave, but Guan Yingzhen himself is very strict with others and himself, so it is impossible to ask for leave, so after students get used to it, no one will ask for leave.
Entering the city from Liulangzhuang, where Qingtan Academy is located, Feng Ziying started her journey early, and within two hours she had already entered Fengcheng Hutong, where her home was located.
After being away from home for more than a month, Feng Ziying's living habits have not changed much, except for waking up half an hour earlier in the morning.
He was still warming up with a set of Taizu Changquan and dancing with a gun and a stick. This attracted many scholars to watch, but over time, everyone became accustomed to it.
This exercise habit is still retained, and Feng Ziying knows that this is probably the only thing she can do in this time and space to make her body stronger and not be taken away by a cold.
Of all the good things, it is not as good as your own good health. This is the capital of revolution. No, it is the capital of a beautiful life in the future.
The Ming system was inherited from Zhou Dynasty, and most of the square system in the capital city remained unchanged. For example, Fengcheng Hutong, where Feng Ziying's family was located, belonged to Xianyi Square.
Fengcheng Hutong is not a very nice place. In front is Fenzi Hutong, which you can tell just by the name. Behind it is Bingmasi Hutong, where Xicheng Bingmasi is located. Further north is Xiyuan Goulan Hutong.
The name is not that nice.
So Feng Ziying also complained to her father. After all, he was also the Shenwu General's Mansion, so why was he caught between Fenzi and Goulan? What do you mean?
The old man turned him back with just one sentence. The Xicheng Army and Horse Department and the dignified government offices were all living openly between these two alleys. What could you not accept if you live in a general's house with no official title?
It would be great if the emperor can give it to you. In the past Ming Dynasty, this was also the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion.
Besides, whether it’s a fan or a check-in, it’s all a matter of the past Ming Dynasty. Even though the name is there now, they don’t do this anymore, right?
Ningrong Street is not a good place either. It is close to Brown Hat Hutong and Baihu Temple Street, and there are one, two or three alleys. Is this where you want to play mahjong?
Just thinking about it makes me feel better.
When I go home, I first have to meet my parents, and then my aunt.
The absence of her father gave Feng Ziying some bad premonitions. Why has her father been socializing more recently after being idle for so long?
My mother was here, wiping her tears again, and her aunt was with her. With such energy, Feng Ziying felt that she hadn't been so worried after a year away, right?
More than a month has passed, and for the big and small Duans, it does feel like a long time has passed.
It seemed that in the past month or so, his son seemed to have jumped up again. His calm aura was much deeper than that of more than a month ago. It was not until Feng Ziying said goodbye that Duan asked her sister: "Wanqin."
, do you think Ziying has changed a bit?"
"Sister, do you also feel this way?" Little Duan also felt something. She put one hand on the pillow on the kang, "I always feel that Ziying has changed a lot since she came back from Shandong. Feng You said that Ziying fell ill after arriving in Linqing.
It burned for two days, and I was so confused that it made me feel anxious. Fortunately, God bless me, and I can turn the bad luck into good luck. If Ziying can find a good time, she should be lucky..."
"...a few days ago, I went to Jishan Temple to burn a few sticks of incense and donated some sesame oil money, just to bless our Ziying. We don't ask him to pass the imperial examination, but we only ask him to be healthy and help us.
May the Feng family renew their incense as soon as possible..."
Mrs. Duan grew up with Feng Ziying. Mrs. Duan also knew that her son was even closer to his sister than to himself. Especially when he was a child, he almost stayed in his sister's house. Whenever he got into trouble, he would always run to her sister's house first.
.
"But this kid seems to be determined to study." Duan also sighed, "Ziying is becoming more and more independent. I'm afraid he doesn't like to listen to our words anymore. The master also said that there are some things he should listen to.
I heard what Ziying said, but according to what he said, we have to wait until he passes the Jinshi examination before we can talk about the marriage. Then when should we wait? Even if he is twenty years old, he may not be able to do it. This matter is not up to him. "
"Sister, are you talking about the affairs of Duke Rongguo's house?" Little Duan was obviously interested, "I happened to meet the girl of Lord Rongguo Jia in Jishan Temple, and she followed her mother to burn incense. Look at her appearance.
He's quite handsome, and his body and bones seem to be fertile. Mr. Xing also said a few words to me, so maybe they really mean it."
"Is she really fertile?" Mrs. Duan pondered. She was indeed dissatisfied with a concubine, but if she were a legitimate daughter, given the current gap between the Jia family and the Feng family, she might not be able to live happily with a new wife.
Well, if she is a concubine, she will naturally not cause trouble so easily.
And for the Feng family, nothing is as important as renewing the relationship as soon as possible. This is also an important reason why Duan cannot tolerate Yun Chang, who is too charming and enchanting in her eyes. If her son is really broken at a young age,
Then the issue of heirs will become really troublesome.
If it weren't for Feng Ziying's strong objection and the master's gentleness, she would have sent Yun Shang away long ago.
"Well, I asked the aunt in the nunnery, and she said that her body, with its thick bones and thick flesh, seems to be easy for children to have children." Little Duan also knew what her sister was most concerned about.
"If that's the case, it's not like the Feng and Jia families can't get married." Duan hesitated, "Wanqin, what do you think?"
"Sister, I'd better ask the master first. I think the master has been thinking about this a few days ago, but it seems to have faded a bit during this period." Xiao Duan thought for a moment: "If it is really possible, I can decide it as soon as possible.
Yes, you can get engaged first, and then you can consider getting married after two or three years."
Feng Ziying still didn't know that the "devil claws" of her mother and aunt had begun to extend to her marriage.
If he knew that his mother and aunt actually wanted to "sell" themselves to each other because they were attracted by Jia Yingchun's waist, fat buttocks and fertility, he would really go crazy.
He didn't even fall in love with Sister Lin of Jiangzhu Xiancao, but his mother and aunt actually fell in love with Ermu Jia Yingchun?
Uh, besides, Ermu Jia Yingchun is only eleven or twelve years old at this time, right? At this time, why do you think someone with a fat waist and a fat butt can have children?
Seeing Yun Shang with red eyes and hunched shoulders, Feng Ziying found that her heart actually hurt.
It seems that he has never had this feeling in his previous life. Why has he become sentimental in this time and space?
"Okay, silly girl, haven't I just left for more than a month?" Feng Ziying couldn't help but scratch the other person's nose, her hands were a little wet, and the little girl finally couldn't hold it back, and tears rolled down her face.
She wiped it with a handkerchief in embarrassment, and Yun Shang quickly turned her face away, "Ah, there's sand in my eyes."
Feng Ziying thought it was funny, wasn't this cover-up too clumsy?
But there seems to be some warmth surging in my heart, and I haven't felt this way for a long time.
"Here, the young master will help you blow." He took the girl's slightly thin shoulder and lifted the girl's pointed chin with the fingers of his other hand. Her clear and transparent eyes were as pure as a stream of autumn water, pink and tender.
Her cherry lips bloomed with a hint of red, but her face burned shyly, which actually gave Feng Ziying an urge to taste it.
I was shocked. It seems that I am only thirteen years old, right? I actually have such a psychological impulse. Is this okay?
If I let my mother know, I'm afraid no one can stop Yun Shang from being kicked out of the house, right?
Before the moment of hesitation had passed, a figure suddenly appeared at the door, "Master, are you back? You miss us so much! Ah!"
Suddenly, he saw the young master holding Yun Shang's shoulder with one hand and lifting Yun Shang's chin with the other hand, looking at each other. Ruixiang couldn't help but yell, "Oh no, how could he encounter such a thing with the young master?"
Thinking of this, Ruixiang wanted to dig out his own eyes.
The wife specifically told her to keep an eye on Yun Shang as "meritorious service", but Ruixiang knew the young master's temper very well, and from the looks of it, Yun Shang would have to take over the house sooner or later, and would become an aunt in the future, with the wife on one side and the young master on the other.
The person on the bed is half the master, so he can't afford to offend either side. Otherwise, he has to make sure that both sides are not human beings.
Without any time to think about it, Ruixiang said "Ah!", just waved at the door, and immediately jumped out without even leaving a word.
Yun Shang was anxious. If Ruixiang misunderstood this, maybe...
Seeing Yun Shang's cheeks quickly turning red and tears about to roll down, Feng Ziying quickly let go of her hand and pretended to be angry: "This Ruixiang is getting more and more ignorant of the rules. It seems that I really should report to my wife and send him to Zhuangzili."
, to save him from wandering around all day and not being able to stay in shape!"
Although she didn't believe that Feng Ziying would do this, Yun Shang was shocked when she heard Feng Ziying's harsh tone and immediately defended Ruixiang: "Master, Ruixiang is very well-behaved. He basically hasn't gone out for more than a month, just in the yard.
, I’m still reading a book if I have nothing to do.”
"Really? Then why didn't I see him when I came back?" Feng Ziying was still reluctant, "It can be seen that he is the same in front of others and the same behind others..."
"No, Master, it's really not..." Yun Shang was really anxious, but he caught a glimpse of the smile on the corner of Feng Ziying's mouth, and immediately reacted, pushing Feng Ziying shyly and angrily: "Master, you are so bad
Damn! I deliberately made Yun Shang anxious! Yun Shang won’t believe you in the future.”
The sentence "Future" made Feng Ziying almost choke on her own saliva. She quickly shook her head and changed the subject: "Yun Shang, where did Ruixiang go when I came back?"
"Youbo and Fourth Master Duan have returned from Datong, and Ruixiang has gone to Youbo's place." Yun Shang explained.
"Oh? My cousin and Uncle You are back?" Feng Ziying was delighted.
My cousin Duan Xigui is the son of my aunt's elder brother, and is considered my mother's cousin. He is almost thirty years old, only a few years younger than my aunt. In the past few years, he has been traveling between Datong and the capital. In addition to doing some business in Datong, he also has
Help the Feng family run some other businesses.
Feng You's being sent to Zhuangzi outside the city was just a formality to appease Duan's unhappy mood. Feng Tang naturally knew the choice in that situation, so Feng You soon went to Datong again.
"Well, Fourth Master Duan came back with Uncle You the day before yesterday." Yun Shang had regained her clarity and her face became lively. She walked to the outhouse and brought tea in for Feng Ziying, "I heard that Fourth Master Duan has gone.
A big deal has been made outside the Great Wall, and the master is personally taking care of it."
