I have a role in the heavens

Wang Ruofu also came from a famous family, and his father was honored as a grand master and worthy of enjoying the imperial temple. Why didn't he know how to treat guests? How could he really dislike the relatives and friends who came to visit him? Otherwise, the spit from the outside world would drown him, too. She quite regretted what Meng Lang said just now, so she nodded to Liu's mother, knowing that she had said something wrong, with a look of regret on her face.

Mother Liu nodded with satisfaction. She had been getting along with the eldest lady for a long time, and she also knew that although the eldest lady came from a famous family and was a bit domineering, she had a good temperament. She rarely punished her servants, and the relationship between Liu's mother and the eldest lady gradually became deeper. She took great care of the eldest lady Wang Ruofu on weekdays, checking for and filling in the gaps.

"Madam, since it is an old relative who comes to visit, or from the old lady's side, as the mistress of the Sheng Mansion, you should also go and see her. No one can find fault with her!"

Liu's mother saw that Wang Ruofu was a little lost, and knew that she was frustrated because she had not been with Sheng Hong for a long time, so she continued to remind her.

Wang Ruofu's eyes flashed brightly, he clasped his hands together and said in surprise.

"Mother Liu, you are right. As the head of the Sheng Mansion, I should meet the old relatives of the Sheng Mansion. It shows more importance. I will go right away!"

Wang Ruofu didn't wait for Liu's mother to answer, and walked quickly in the direction of Shou'antang. Liu's mother looked at the irritable lady with both laughter and tears, and had to trot to keep up. At the same time, she reminded the lady not to be rude and pay attention to her bearing as a wife. .

"Mother, this is a letter written to you by Aunt Li from Yangzhou. Do you need your son to open it for you and read it?!"

Sheng Hong came to Shou'an Hall, and after greeting Mrs. Sheng first, he reported the matter reported by the steward to his mother, took out the letter, and asked Mrs. Sheng hesitantly.

Although Sheng Hong is the head of the Sheng Mansion, he is not the legitimate son who crawled out of Mrs. Sheng's belly, but a concubine. Because Mr. Sheng spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, Mrs. Sheng's legitimate son died young, and Sheng Hong's mother was also killed. Mr. Sheng was harmed by his beloved concubine. Thanks to Mrs. Sheng's love and care, he grew up healthily. Later, after Mr. Sheng's death, he hired famous teachers for Sheng Hong to give lectures. Only then did he pass the imperial examination and revive the family business. Therefore, Sheng Hong treated His aunt, Mrs. Sheng, also respected her very much and treated her as her biological mother.

Old Mrs. Sheng looked graceful and wealthy, with extraordinary demeanor and the air of a noble daughter. Although her hair was gray, her face was still rosy, her body was healthy and strong, and her voice was loud and clear. She reached out her hand to signal to Sheng Hong and handed over the letter. come over.

"No need, Yangzhou Li family, if they hadn't visited me, I would have forgotten that I still have this relative. I had a falling out with the Hou Mansion, so I also lost contact with this concubine. I just heard that she was with my husband. After his death, he returned to Yangzhou with his children, and there was no correspondence between them for decades!"

At that time, Mrs. Sheng was the legitimate daughter of Yongyi Hou Mansion, and she was also loved very much. Unlike Li Zhan's grandmother, who was a concubine, she was a beloved daughter of heaven. Fortunately, the old lady was also a knowledgeable and reasonable person at the time, and she was a concubine. They got along harmoniously and there was nothing dirty, so I was quite happy to hear the news about my concubine.

Fang's mother took the letter from Sheng Hong's hand, took two quick steps, opened the letter, and handed it to Mrs. Sheng.

Although Mrs. Sheng was already in her 60s, she was both sharp and clear-sighted and did not look old at all. She couldn't wait to unfold the letter. It is inevitable for people to miss their childhood when they grow old, so she was very excited about this sister's letter.

Mrs. Sheng gradually frowned as she read the letter, a layer of mist appeared in her eyes, and she looked much sadder.

Seeing his mother's expression, Sheng Hong didn't dare to speak. He just waited quietly. The entire Shou'an Hall was silent for a while.

Old Mrs. Sheng folded the letter carefully and put it back into the envelope again. There were tears in the corners of her eyes. She reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes and said with a sad face.

"Aunt You has passed away for more than three years, and I didn't even know about it in Yangzhou. I really shouldn't have!"

Seeing that his mother was sad, Sheng Hong did not dare to be careless and quickly advised her.

"Mom, it's all my son's fault. He was working in Yangzhou and never visited his aunt, so that's why this happened. Please don't be overly sad, please forgive me and accept the change!"

This is an era where filial piety is greater than heaven. Sheng Hong naturally takes all the blame on himself and does not dare to be careless, for fear that Mrs. Sheng will be too sad and will be upset.

"Your aunt's family has all passed away, leaving only your cousin Li Zhan, who has only one child. This poor child has been living alone at the age of eleven or twelve, and only now comes to visit. I don't know how many crimes he has suffered?!"

Mrs. Sheng had a look of distress and love on her face. She stood up anxiously and was about to walk out of the house to personally greet her grandnephew who had come to visit her for the first time. There was a bit of guilt on her face. Mrs. Sheng had been hurt because of her relationship with her. The Hou Mansion severed the relationship. Although they knew that this sister, an orphan and a widower, lived alone in Yangzhou, they never moved around. I didn't expect that so many things happened in the Li family. Otherwise, why would I have to move around to help? How could a minor be allowed to do so? The child lived alone for three years.

Sheng Honglian quickly stood up and bowed to persuade.

"Don't be anxious, mother. I have ordered the steward to invite Zhan'er to the house. He will be outside the hospital in a short while. As an elder, you should wait a moment, otherwise he, a child, will be easily frightened by you!"

Mrs. Sheng stopped when she heard this. She thought that as an elder, she had never seen a child. It would be bad for the child if she went to greet the child with a large number of people. After all, there is no reason for elders to welcome younger generations. It would be better to go there in person. Shouantang is waiting, it doesn’t take much time anyway.

"Then just wait!"

After all, Old Mrs. Sheng was a person who had seen the world. A woman with an unusual demeanor, she calmed down her excitement and sat back on the chair with a calm expression. She only glanced out from time to time, which still showed that Old Mrs. Sheng Inner expectations.

Sheng Hong felt relieved. He should not be too emotionally unstable when he is old, so he stopped his mother. Seeing that Mrs. Sheng had returned to her usual shrewd calmness, he sat back in his seat and waited with the old lady for this... My cousin Li Zhan whom I have never met.

Li Zhan looked at the Jiangnan-style courtyard in front of him and couldn't help but nod. It was peaceful and quiet, suitable for the elderly to live in, and was good for the body.

The steward led Li Zhan outside the Shou'an Hall, stopped, bowed and shouted loudly into the hall.

"Madam, sir, the guests have arrived!"

Mrs. Sheng did not wait for her son Sheng Hong to speak and gave instructions directly.

"Invite my grandson in quickly!"

After hearing Mrs. Sheng's order, the steward moved his steps and led Li Zhan into the Shou'an Hall. He bowed to Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Hong who were sitting in the hall, then took two steps back and turned around to leave. Li Zhan was left standing alone in the hall, bearing the pain of the two people in the hall. Look carefully.

I forgot to post it after setting it up, sorry.
