Except for bidding a farewell to ancestors when getting married, a woman could not enter the main hall of the ancestral hall.
Thus, the so-called being grounded in the ancestral hall for one month was actually letting them stay in the wing of the ancestral hall for one month.
The ancestral hall of Sheng Family was extended and renovated just two years ago. Because it was guarded and maintained by specific servants, it looked new.
Even if the wing was rare to be used in a year, it was carved and painted with beautiful displays inside.
However, there were only some equipment for sacrifice, spare incense burners, and four treasures of study here. As for bedding, dressing table and so on, those were not available.
Fortunately, Senior Master Sheng cared about her granddaughters’ fragile health and ordered someone to spread a pile of straw on the ground as a bed for them.
The spoiled sisters tried so hard to unf
Sheng Weiqiao and Sheng Weiwu didn’t know that they were going to be in big trouble. After eating, they negotiated to copy the book, “Although grandfather will not be pitiless to lock us here for a month, if we didn’t copy the book even once, it would make him embarrassed. Should we do it?”They routed out Four Self-accomplishment Classics for Women, ground the ink, laid out the paper, and began to copy.At dinner time, the servant sent vegetable and tofu dishes with rice again. This time, they didn’t taste the food as delicious as last time, so they were careless when copying the book in candlelight after dinner.“What are you here again?” they asked. Seeing Sheng Shuihe coming with a food container, they put down the writing brush and said simultaneously, “We have told you that we will not eat anything sent by you!”“My sisters, relax!” Sheng Shuihe said pleasantly, “This is not prepared for you. I have nothing to do, so I intend
So, hearing the “brothers” that the sisters repeated one after the other, Sheng Shuihe sat back reluctantly, “You are not kids anymore and there are no servants around us. Although I am your biological elder brother, it is still not good to spread it out and make other people know. Remember, it’s between us.”What Sheng Weiqiao and Sheng Weiwu wanted was to let him stay to embolden them, and therefore they were so subservient to him and nodded their heads in a hurry. Absolutely, they had the same idea in mind: when the servant delivered the food at dawn, you would be useless. Then just see how we would fix you!!!However, the night was long and boundless. They just looked at each other and didn’t know what to do. Sheng Shuihe wanted to go to sleep, but he had been shaken awake by these two sisters. He asked these two sisters to sleep, but none of them dared to close their eyes although they were already too sleepy.After dawdling like this for
If it had been before, the two sisters wouldn’t surely have feared. Especially that Senior Master had set one month for them last time, but he cut it down to ten days to half a month now. Evidently, he had compromised!But still scared by the experience last night, let alone being locked in the ancestral hall for ten days to half a month, they couldn’t endure staying there for a quarter!Hearing that, naturally they pleaded. But the more they pled, the surer Senior Master Sheng was that they were lying in order to evade the punishments. He said, “You’ve ruined my birthday banquet and shamed Sheng Family! With such a big scene caused, I didn’t beat you or throw you out. Instead, I just sent you to the ancestral hall to copy books for two days, but you still want to bargain? Do you really think that there aren’t any disciplines in our family?”After saying that, ignoring the explanation and the cry of the two sisters, he commanded, “Drag them to
When Xu Baomo was still excited about his plan, Sheng Shuihe said apologetically, “Grandpa, thank you for your kindness. I know I should accept it, but I still have some injuries, which may become the burden of Brother Xu. So, I’m afraid that I can’t accept that.”Senior Master Sheng was hardly back from the last trip, so he did not know Sheng Shuihe’s injury. After hearing this, he was surprised and said, “How did you get hurt?”“It was a misunderstanding. Thankfully, all the scabs are growing, and I guess it won’t take too long to heal.” Sheng Shuihe replied with a smile, “There is no need to worry, Grandpa!”Senior Master Sheng felt that he did not want to answer the question or he didn’t want to answer in public. So, he gave his grandson a meaningful look, touched his beard, and said to Xu Baomo, “Well, I really want to treat you well, but my grandson still has some injuries. You may need to stay with us for a couple of days!”
“How dare you hit my Second Sister?” Sheng Weiwu saw her stop. She looked back as well. When she saw what had happened, she rolled up her sleeves and prepared to hit her with rage. Even Shen Jiuniang who didn’t want to get involved was amused because of this scene, “No wonder that Grandma didn’t let her mother marry into Sheng Family. There would be no more good days in Sheng Family if she were here!”This was just a five-year-old kid. How could she be brought up like this? We could see what kind of person her mother was from her kid!“You can leave now since you are all busy! Seventh Sister, you are so young that you can’t hit her hard. You had better let me do this.” Sheng Weirao wasn’t angry anymore when she had heard her words. Nobody in Sheng Family didn’t know Sheng Weiqiao’s status.Even Old Madam Ming needed to spoil and indulge her and didn’t dare to say harsh words to her! How dare Sheng Lianlian hit her with a stone? This little kid
When communicating with Sheng Shuihe that day, were there any flaws shown by me?Xu Baomo’s head moved back a little with a guilty conscience as the eyesight of Sheng Lanci seemed to indicate: “Stay away from my daughter”, “I have seen through your intention” and “I will kill you if you continue to seduce my daughter”. He thought that it was the first time that we had spoken without the third person! How could it be possible that I was caught by her father? And her dad would keep an eye on me?Was that because the future father-in-law was well-informed and knew my true colors in such a short time?!Xu Baomo had a premonition that his legs would be cut off by him….But the truth was—After a while, the father and daughter said goodbye to Xu Baomo. On their way back to Spring House, Sheng Weiqiao complained, “Dad, could you please don’t think each young man with me has a crush on me, Okay? It’s so embarrassing!”
In terms of quantity, Senior Master Sheng had five grandsons, even not including Sheng Shuihe whom he hadn’t met back then!But in terms of talents and qualifications, these five grandsons together were not as good as one Xu Baomo of Xu Family, okay?!How could he reply?He felt that he was fortunate enough that he didn’t bring his grandsons to Xu Family!While Sheng Lanci heard this, he had no other choice but to comfort Senior Master Sheng, “Uncle Xu was old, so don’t make a fuss about it with him. Just tolerate him and let it go… Besides, when you compared your sons several years ago, I made you feel proud, didn’t I?”“You call that old guy younger uncle, but not elder uncle. I am older than him anyhow! Why should I tolerate him?!” Senior Master Sheng roared to his son because his son just spoke for the person out of his family but not for his father. Then he became angrier, “It is just because I have never lost in
Though just rejected by her crush, at her grandmother’s request, Shen Jiuniang would have to make a match for her crush and her cousin; meanwhile, she would have to prevent another cousin from getting into the way. Such a mission was too cruel. But unable to tell the truth, Shen Jiuniang made up an excuse to deal with Old Madam Ming and accepted it with pain!But Old Madam Ming had only told Shen Jiuniang about her consideration with no one else included.So, on the day when they set off, seeing Shen Jiuniang in the troop, Sheng Weiqiao’s eyes dilated instantly, which made Shen Jiuniang stressed.She hastened to pull her cousin aside and explained seriously, “Big Weiqiao, it’s not like what you think! I’m not here for Young Lord Xu in the slightest. It’s because grandmother asked me to come!”For God’s sake, though her family status was far from an equal of Ningwei Marquis, she was brought up with indulgence and pampering. Would sh
Shu Zhaoyi lost her soul and returned to the Xuanjing Emperor placed outside the bedchamber, and was about to go in to see how the Xuanjing Emperor slept ... After she came back with the Xuanjing Emperor, because she was anxious to go to interrogate Meng Guiyu alone, she excused herself to drink wine to drown her sorrows, and left the Xuanjing Emperor after she got him drunk.This moment back can not help but go in to see, who knows just to the door to see the two chamberlains eyes and nose guarding.Seeing Zhaoyi come over, their faces all changed, and they bowed tremblingly, saying, "Long live the Empress!""There are people inside?" Shu Zhaoyi asked with a raised eyebrow when she saw that despite their respectful attitude, they never had the intention to give way.The two chamberlains looked at each other, with trepidation in their eyes, knowing that the Shu sisters were in great favor and neither were good-tempered.Especially at this moment, the ne
Shu Zhaoyi's expression was harsh, but Meng Guiyu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice, "Back to Lady Zhaoyi, I really didn't know about Your Highness's suffering at all!"He glanced at Shu Guifei's remains on the door panel not far away, "As for why His Majesty and Lady Zhaoyi found that Lady Guifei was missing, they issued an imperial edict for the forbidden army to search everywhere, and in the end, it was me who sent Lady Guifei to His Majesty as well as to Lady Zhaoyi.... Ma'am, I reported up before that Lady Guifei wasn't personally found by me, but was reported up after his men found it. personally found, but rather after my men found it and reported it up, I went to see it!""After all, I have been favored by the two empresses and have joined the forbidden army as the Grand Commander of the forbidden army. When the forbidden army discovers a clue, it is natural to report it to me first, and then I will convey it to His Majesty and you, Your Highness!"
"Your Highness!" Meng Gui Yu's expression was somber, his eyes were also red, stepped forward and cupped his fists and said, "After I learned that Your Highness and her attendants had disappeared, I couldn't believe that Your Highness had been in an accident! However, the Queen Consort lived in the Qiongxue Palace and the left side of the inch by inch search down, the Committee did not see any silhouettes, can only be dispersed towards the distance. At this time to listen to the water division side of the report, said the spring wave lake floated up ... floated up a number of people, all for the palace attire, the leader of the even more expensive clothes extraordinary, I ... ministers eleven million hope that it is a mistake!""But the minister to the lake, personally saw this body pomegranate red dress shirt ... I remember, two days ago also see your concubine through ...""This must be which bitchy servant girl, stole this palace sister's robe!!!" Shu Zhao Yi covered
The sky was overcast as if it were night before the rain poured down.In the back room of the assassin's residence, the doors and windows were closed, and it was too dim to see the outlines of things.Yi Liu dressed in Xuan Shirt strong clothing, full head of green silk also with the same color of the handkerchief tightly wrapped up, foot soft sole light boots, quietly stepped over the scarlet ground tangled branches of lotus pattern unicorn play beads rug.The short sword in his hand was coated in black paint, dark and heavy that would not emit any reflections, best suited for the immediate environment.She narrowed her eyes slightly so as not to let the luster between the flow of her bright eyes be detected by her opponent.The thunder outside the house had been raging for a long time, and her confrontation with her opponent had lasted even longer.She's in no hurry.In addition to the fact that this was the Assassin's Palace, the home bas
Rong Sleeping Crane was busy smiling and greeted her, "Auntie! I disturbed you last night, are you resting well now?"Xuan Yu Feng first looked him up and down, saw his gray head and face, and his clothes were dirty, then said in a pleasant manner, "I am an idle person anyway, it is nothing to make a mess once in a while, but it is you ... how did you get this? How to make such a mess? I just saw with you a piece of over the guards, are good, thought you also safe and sound it!"Let's just say that he, "Auntie knows that this child of yours is both literate and skilled in martial arts. But the so-called not in his position does not seek his own politics, you now is not to the district Gongsun clan to sell their lives of the Wuyi camp leader, but the king of the big Mu County, is the husband of Qiao Er, lemonade father of the king! If it is because of the first to fight, there are any shortcomings, you call Qiao'er mother and son in the future how to do?""What's mo
"..." Rong Sleeping Crane froze and said, "Good girl, although Meng Boqin is gone, the Northern Border may not be peaceful ah! And you also know that I secretly came from the Western Border this time, so after settling your mother and son, I will talk to uncle for a few more days, and also have to hurry to return to the Western Border."Sheng Weiqiao said, "You have urgent matters, you go to the western border first! I'll go over slowly with lemonade, at most it's just a few more days of traveling."She frowned slightly, ''Before I left from the Western Frontier in such a hurry, the things I lost down were just that, Geun Li, Ju Li those people, and the twelve niang and whatnot ... I'm telling you, if it wasn't for the fact that you were in the way of Meng Boqin before, and you said that it was safest to take the sea route to leave, I would have wanted to go to the Western Frontier to witness it no matter what. I'd like to go to the western border to see them before I fe
"Think of the good in things!" The plan to use Zhao Shi as a front failed, Rong Yuhe could only go alone to face his wife's doubts, he was on his way to comfort himself, "I can't say that my daughter is worried and scared alone in the camp, and she is satisfied to see that I am well past it. Why is it that things are happening differently from what she told me before, and she's not in the mood to get to the bottom of it, so I'll be able to get by with a few perfunctory sentences?"With that thought he looked down at his neat as new robes, pondered for a moment, and decisively halted his mount!The left and right guards were instantly aghast, taking off the bow hanging on the saddle and nocking arrows from the arrow pot at their waist while asking in a low voice, "County King?""... "Rong Sleeping Crane looked at them as if they were enemies, the corner of his mouth twitched, and said, "It's nothing. Well, you guys stay here, lone go to the side forest for a bit!"
The green-clothed boy heard, a face of "difficult to say" expression, once again look at Zhao Shi, mouth vaguely said, "I do not know how to say ... anyway... several stewards feel very difficult to make a judgment. ...Several stewards feel that it's very tricky and can't make a judgment, so I can only ask the County King to personally decide!"Seeing this situation, Zhao Shi raised an eyebrow and said to Rong Sleeping Crane, "I'm about to go out to see how things are going underneath, you guys talk over here!"Just take the old maid and go.The room is left with Rong Sleeping Crane and the boy, that boy immediately swept away the calm in front of Zhao Shi's master and servant, said in a tone of excitement mixed with inexplicable excitement, "County King! To tell you the truth, you may not believe it: brother Ah Xi, he ... actually slept with the Empress!!!"Yung Sleeping Crane, who has taken a hundred and twenty-thousand percent care and is ready to receive
Zhao Shi sniffed, froze for a good while, before asking with doubts, "You ... you send all the horses of your Western Frontier elite cavalry over? Then what about the direct line that you single-handedly trained?"Not waiting for Rong Sleeping Crane to answer, he shook his head again, "Not right! You kid has always been treacherous, not taking advantage of others would be good, how could you do something so self-sacrificing?!"Mind electric turn, suddenly eyes bright, breathing are a little short of breath, eagerly asked, "I remember you promised Deng Chen Liyu to help him raise his son and grandson ...?""I'm not as old as his grandson, what do you mean by helping him raise his son and grandson?" Rong Sleeping Crane cried and laughed, "It's just a promise to shelter a few of his heirs."Zhao suitable toward him leaned his body, attentive to ask, "The previous dynasty has the emperor Na Ru Ru princess as a consort, when Ru Ru accompanied by 10,000 horses, tha
