"Greetings to the old lady. The maidservant is Chun Xing next to the third grandma in Congyunyuan. The third grandma is not feeling well this morning. She will kowtow to the old lady when she feels better."

Master Chen has three sons and five daughters. The eldest son, Chen Ping, married Jia, and had two sons and one daughter; the second son, Chen Shi, married Yan, and had two daughters; the youngest son, Chen Zhan, married Lu, and had three sons and three daughters. .

Among the five daughters, except Miss Qi who is Xingqi, the others have all been married.

Married daughters have their own rules in the husband's house. The three daughters-in-law, five grand-daughter-in-laws, the unmarried Seventh Miss, and other granddaughters in the mansion have to go to Minghui Hall to pay their respects to their wives every three days. people.

Hearing this girl's words, Chen Ping's wife Jia quickly put down the teacup, and asked anxiously: "Your grandma is the most healthy, why is she not feeling well all of a sudden, did you see a doctor?"

"Back to grandma, the doctor has already found her and said there is nothing serious, but the third grandma used too much ice last night because she was greedy for cold, so she will be fine after a few days of rest and taking two doses of medicine."

This summer is hotter than in previous years, and the price of ice in Shengjing is rising steadily.

Although Mr. Chen is a high-ranking member of the imperial court, he is from a humble family. His ancestors all lived in the fields and had no savings. The family's expenses depended entirely on the little salary.

But Chen Zhan's wife, Mrs. Lu, is rich, and her natal elder brother is in Yushitai, and has served as a patrolling censor, which is highly valued by the emperor.

After Lu entered the door, someone counted with their fingers, and the silver building of the Zhuangzi shop in her hand added up to ten thousand taels of silver. Except for the old lady Shen Huan, she was the richest in the entire Shangshu Mansion.

Otherwise, it's impossible that everyone will soon no longer need ice, and she can catch a cold if she uses it too much.

The corners of Jia's lips drooped, and the anxiety on his face turned into worry: "You don't stop some third grandmas, women are delicate and easy to accumulate cold air. The cold air is too severe, and it's not good to get hurt."

"The third grandma is usually in poor health. If she doesn't take good care of her, she will have a long time to live."

Chun Xing clenched her hands: "What Grandma said is that the servants are not thinking carefully."

"Okay," Shen Huan, who was sitting at the top, said, "Go back to your grandma, your body is the most important thing, and it's the same when you come to pay your respects at another time."

"Yes, the slaves retire."

Shen Huan is an elder, and the rest of the people who spoke were respectful and solemn, no matter what their thoughts were.

Shen Huan looked at them: "Because I'm here today, I have something to tell you, and I want to hear what you think."

"The empress dowager celebrates her birthday, and she intends to add joy to the occasion, to enrich the harem with draft girls for the emperor, and the decree will be issued soon."

"Miaoyi and Tingfang Huiru in our house are all of the right age. What the master means is that if you don't want to enter the palace by draft, you can just book the marriage according to the candidate he likes."

Chen Miaoyi, Chen Tingfang, Chen Huiru, the three young girls did not expect that the topic would fall on themselves, they raised their heads and opened their mouths in the same way, not knowing what to say.

Yan Shi was top-heavy by this good news, and said nervously: "Entering the palace is a great honor, a great joyous event for a glorious family, Ting Fanghuiru must enter the palace!"

When my mother spoke, Chen Tingfang and Chen Huiru naturally didn't have the part to talk, they only said that their mother was in charge.

Shen Huan looked at Chen Miaoyi: "Where is Miaoyi?"

Chen Miaoyi squeezed the handkerchief: "I, I am the same as Ting Fanghuiru."

They all have their own ideas, so Shen Huan told them to prepare for the next few days without saying anything else, and quietly nominate for the show.

After the greetings, the dark female relatives dispersed, and Shen Huan stood, opening her arms to make it easier for the nanny to undress herself, and put on a more quiet and homely amber gown with a stand-up collar and an ash gray horse-face skirt.

The weather is hot, and the materials used are all light and thin gauze, which is cool to the skin and flesh. After taking a sip of sour plum juice soaked in ice, Shen Huan feels refreshed all over, and said to the nurse: "Nurse, you can take someone with you later. Go to my private treasury, find some things that my daughter can use, divide them into three parts and send them to Miaoyi Tingfang, and Miaoyi's place will get [-]% more."

"Old lady..." Mrs. Wu hesitated, "My lord is already the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, and the three of my daughter, granddaughter and granddaughter are drafting together, which is really quite powerful."

Shen Huan: "As the saying goes, the grace of birth is not as great as the grace of nurturing. I have neither the grace of procreation nor the grace of nurturing their brothers and sisters."

"He is here, I am the old lady of the Chen family, if he is not here, I am nothing."

"Nurse, what I said is useless, and I don't want to say it."

Taking him with him since he couldn't speak, the heart of the nanny who had spent most of her life on him was about to break.

Mrs. Chen Fangyue is a son of a poor family. Before Tanhua in high school, he married his wife Zhao and gave birth to Mrs. Chen Ping.

The Zhao family was arranged by Mrs. Chen's mother. An ordinary girl in the town, Chen Fangyue took the imperial examinations for so many years. She was the one who ran the family and took care of her parents-in-law.

Chen Fangyue took him to Shengjing after he was in high school. Ten years later, because of his poor health in the early years, he passed away after a cold.

Shen Huan is the continuation of Chen Fangyue. For 20 years, she has no son and a half. Chen Fangyue raised the concubine Zhou's child with him, which is now Chen Miaoyi.

Otherwise, Chen Miaoyi from the concubine would not even be eligible to participate in the draft.

But it's just a name. The three sons in the family are all older than him, 43, and he is only 37.

The more the nanny thought about it, the more uncomfortable she was, and after a while she choked out a sentence: "Master and wife are confused, they shouldn't have agreed to Chen Fangyue's marriage proposal back then!"

"Father and mother just don't want me to be like duckweed in the future, with nowhere to go."

"Master Chen... gave me a place to stay."

The golden crow slowly hangs down to the west, and the last ray of sunlight disappears.

However, the summer heat did not disappear much, and people were still sweating profusely.

Shen Huan lay on the edge of the tub, exposing her entire back and neck, and nurse Wu wiped him with a soft towel.

Shen Huan is different from others, her chest is flat, and her lower body has both men's objects and women's secrets.

After wiping his body, Mrs. Wu changed him into a thin silk undershirt and underpants, and said to him, "Your maidservant went to the stove to have a look, but things are still warm."

"Well, nanny, take some more, I want to use it with you." Shen Huan suffered from summer, and the weather was too hot to eat. Now her stomach is empty, and she has to eat something to fall asleep.

He had just walked out of the screen in his underwear and underpants when Chen Fangyue, who hadn't returned home for half a month, walked in suddenly.

Chen Fangyue is 62 years old. He is neither tall nor short.

Compared with him, Shen Huan looked quite different.

The 37-year-old Shen Huan has a thin neck and thin back, a thin waist and round hips.

He seems to have been treated particularly favorably by the years, with fair skin, slender eyebrows, a gentle and tall nose, thin and affectionate lips.

He also has a pair of eyes that Chen Fangyue, who has read a lot of poetry and books, can hardly describe. They are as pure as a childish deer, charming and pitiful, but as clear as ice and pure as jade.
