Zhao Yi raised his eyelids and glanced at him and said: "Uncle Dian, there is no need to hide it in front of me. What is the relationship between our two families? Outsiders don't know it, but we don't know it?"
If they don't hold swords against each other, there is peace.
Zhao Dian shook his head and said, "I don't think it's because outsiders don't know about it, not even the husband himself knows about it."
He said: "The eldest gentleman and the eldest lady have done many wrong things, but there is a husband above them. The husband loves Sanniang, and Sanniang also respects him. She is willing to cultivate him for him. Why does he do that?"
Why can’t you help Sanniang for Master Lang’s sake?”
"Master Lang hopes that your brother and sister can put aside their past grievances and start over." Seeing Zhao Yi lowering his eyes and not speaking, Zhao Dian paused and glanced at the servants in the room. When they left, only the brother and sister were in the room.
After three people, they said: "Da Langjun, Second Lady, Fourth Lady, don't you have any brotherhood for Third Lady and Er Langjun?"
The expressions on the three people's faces changed and they all lowered their heads.
There are some, but not many.
Zhao Dian didn't know much, but he just pretended not to know and continued to say with a sad face: "Master Lang and the ancestors are not on good terms. The two brothers often quarrel, but no matter what, the ancestors still put the whole family and the Zhao family together."
Leave it all to Master Lang."
"The eldest master and his wife had such a trouble with Sanniangzi, but the master still valued Sanniangzi and was willing to invest all his resources in her, giving up his own son and choosing his grandniece." Zhao Dian asked: "Is it possible that in the end, Lang
In the Lord’s heart, aren’t sons closer than nieces and nephews?”
Zhao Yi said with some resentment: "I know what you are going to say, everything is for the clan, right? In my grandfather's heart, the six members of our family combined are not as important as the responsibility of the clan leader."
Zhao Dian had many words stuck in his chest. He only regarded them as unintentional angry words. After all, his mother had just died, so he was silent for a while, regained his composure and continued: "Dalangjun, you
The family is both prosperous and destructive, especially in these troubled times, without the protection of the family, no matter how noble he is, he will be hijacked by the rebel army like a piece of grass."
Zhao Diandao: "Have you forgotten the royal family who died outside in the battle of Luoyang?"
"Aren't their status noble? Aren't their family assets rich? But how many princes and grandsons died outside this time?" Zhao Dian lowered his voice and said: "If the Sima clan is strong, who can kill them and who dares to kill them?"
"Don't think that Master Lang is partial to the Third Lady, and don't think that the family is favoring her. Now, she is the courage and armor of the Zhao family, and Zhao is her pair of wings, and you want to be a wing on her wings.
Feather, not only are you protecting her, she is also protecting you."
"Otherwise, the feathers will fall off and fly alone. They may fall to the ground at any time and be crushed into the dust." Zhao Dian said seriously: "What Master Lang is doing now is to make these feathers more lush. It is not only to protect the Zhao family, but also to protect the Zhao family."
You."
Zhao Dian looked sad, "How could you misunderstand Mr. Lang because of this?"
Zhao Erniang took two steps forward, her eyes were red and she pulled Zhao Yi's sleeve, "Brother, we listen to my grandfather."
Zhao Siniang also nodded repeatedly, pursed her lips and said, "Brother, my grandfather loves us more than the third sister. The reason we are like this now is because the third sister is better than us. This is not love, but respect."
Zhao Yi was even more embarrassed, so was it because he was inferior to Zhao Hanzhang that his grandfather gave up on him and chose her?
Zhao Siniang encouraged him: "As long as the eldest brother is more powerful than the third sister, my grandfather will rely on the eldest brother as before."
Zhao Erniang hesitated for a moment. She didn't think her eldest brother could compare to Zhao Hanzhang, but she still nodded and nodded to Zhao Yi, "Yes!"
Encourage people first and then talk.
Zhao Yi lowered his eyes and did not make a decision. A servant came over to report: "Master Da Lang, the stewards of the third and fifth rooms have come to carry out the funeral rites. The fifth master will bring people over tomorrow to set up a mourning hall for the eldest lady."
The servant lowered his head and said: "The fifth master said that although the person has not returned, the soul must be called back, so he asked the steward of the seventh master's family to invite the Taoist priest of Qingchen Temple to come and perform rituals, and to set up the spiritual place for the husband and the girl.
It is also good for us to keep vigil and fulfill our filial piety."
Zhao Yi's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears fell to the ground drop by drop.
Zhao Dian breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and said in a gentle tone: "Da Langjun, the third lady asked you to take the exam..."
Zhao Yi said with red eyes: "I know, I will take the exam."
Zhao Dian couldn't help but smile and said "Okay" repeatedly, "Then I will go and reply to Master Lang right now?"
Zhao Yi nodded with red eyes.
Zhao deliberately suppressed the news and waited for a while before sending the information to the Zhong family in Nanxiang County.
When the Zhong family heard about Wu's illness, they felt weird for a moment. Why was he so sick?
But seeing Zhao Hewan crying sadly, he carefully read the letter from the Zhao family, saying that Wu had contracted wind and cold during the migration. In addition, she was frightened in Luoyang, and her health was already poor, so the disease could not be cured.
The Zhao family said that after Wu fell ill, she was specifically told not to tell her family because she was worried about delaying her eldest daughter's marriage. Therefore, the Zhao family hoped that the Zhong family could comfort Zhao Hewan and not make her too sad.
The weird feeling in the hearts of the Zhong family disappeared in an instant, which makes sense. Not to mention the current world, even in the peaceful years, there were many people who died just because of a cold.
People at that time loved to eat Wu Shi Powder, why?
It’s not just because I firmly believe that Wu Shi Powder can treat and prevent wind and cold.
Wind-cold is the disease that is most likely to kill people and kills the most people in this era.
Zhao Hewancai had to observe filial piety less than a month after marrying into the Zhong family. Fortunately, she was a married woman and only had to observe mourning for one year.
However, Zhao Yi and Zhao Erniang and Zhao Siniang wanted to keep their filial piety. Those who wanted to tell Zhao Erniang that they were in love with each other could only stop with regret.
After the funeral, Zhao Yi took Zhao Dian and others to Chen County, while Zhao Erniang and Zhao Siniang stayed in Xiping to observe filial piety. There were clansmen taking care of them here, so they were not afraid.
Nowadays, the Zhao family's culture is quite good. Even if there are occasional weirdos like Zhao Hu, they can't get past the big tree of Zhao Song and cause great injustice to the clan members.
So Zhao Yi went to Chen County with confidence.
Zhao Ming also received a letter from Zhao Hanzhang, and she asked Zhao Ming to find a room for Zhao Yi to live in her home. "The eldest brother is going out for the first time, and he is inexperienced, so he must be frightened. The mother in the family is weak and her health is always poor.
It was difficult to take care of him, so I troubled Uncle Ming."
Zhao Ming snorted, threw the letter aside and said, "She does feel sorry for her mother."
Changqing knelt down and sat aside, cooked a bowl of tea for Zhao Ming, and asked: "Then... do we need to arrange a room?"
"Clean up the guest house, and when their master and servant arrive, you can take them in." Zhao Ming lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "That's fine, I have only seen that child three times. Since he is here this time, I will
Take a careful look."
He said: "Erlang is still too young. I hope his son will..." And who knows whether his son will be like him?
So if Zhao Yi is worthy of training, he can give it a try. He is not very old and Zhao Ji has not raised him well. He will start to straighten himself out from now on.
