Chapter 153: Brother 2, don’t you like Miss Shang?
Shen Ruyi didn't know about the evil thoughts of her cousin and second brother. She played with the little rabbit with her brother, and then took her brother back to take a nap.
The next day, Qin Beiyu led his men out of the capital. He had to eliminate the dangerous elements of the Ghost Six Gang.
The leader of Guiliutang committed murder and arson and all kinds of evil as soon as he received the order. This is absolutely not allowed in the territory of Daqin!
After Qin Beiyu left the capital, Wei Wanlin was temporarily in charge of the Qin family army camp. After Wei Wanshan came back, he was indeed promoted to general for his meritorious service.
Although the general is of the second rank, there are indeed very few who can be called second rank generals in the court of the Qin Dynasty.
Wei Zhendong was really proud of himself. His eldest son was promoted to the rank of general, and his second son was promoted to the rank of general. His Fuguo Mansion really felt like the God of Land farted. He was very arrogant!
After the morning court session, Wei Zhendong returned home. His mother was there with Shen, who was taking care of her pregnancy!
When Wei Zhendong came in, he asked, "Yu'er, do you feel better today?"
The woman's complexion looked better, at least a little rosier. She said embarrassedly, "Well, it's better today. There's no more bleeding."
Wei Zhendong grinned and patted his chest: "That's good... That's good! The prescriptions given by the two imperial doctors are really accurate!"
Little Wei Wanqian knocked on the door, and Shen Ruyi came in from behind with a bowl of medicine.
Both children personally prepared medicine for their mother, which shows that they are really worried about their mother!
Wei Zhendong took the tray from his daughter's hand with a distressed look on his face: "Ruyi, there are people below to do this job, why are you working so hard? Just stay with your mother!"
Shen Ruyi smiled and put her scalded hands behind her back: "It's okay, my brother and I don't have much to do, we just want to make medicine for mother so that we can feel at ease!"
The old lady of the Wei family smiled and said, "The children are all filial, which is a good thing! The county lady is so lucky that her children are all filial."
Shen smiled lovingly: "Well, Ruyi and Wanqian are both good children!"
Wei Zhendong brought the medicine bowl over, tested the temperature, and then brought it over himself, feeding the medicine soup to his wife bit by bit. Shen didn't want him to feed her the medicine and wanted her to drink it herself, but he refused.
Wei Zhendong looked at his mother and said, "Mother, the second son Wanshan is back. Do you and the county lady have any idea about finding him a girl from a certain family?
Our family is going to arrange Wan Lin's wedding in June, and I want to arrange Wan Shan's wedding by the end of the year. When Wan Chong comes back, I can arrange his wedding, and then I can breathe a sigh of relief. At least I won't let Linglong down.
Linglong once said before she died that she wanted me to find wives for my three sons so that they could live a good life! "
The old lady of the Wei family looked at her son and her daughter-in-law lovingly and said with a smile: "I have discussed with the county lady, and there are two families in Beijing who have daughters of good families whose age and personality match those of our Wanshan.
One of the merchants was a wealthy family in the capital, and his family had been running a bookstore business for generations. The other two shops were inn businesses. The merchants' ancestors had been officials, but no one in recent generations had been an official.
There is also the young lady of the Ministry of Personnel’s Zuo Cheng Wu’s family. She is also seventeen years old. It is said that the family she was engaged to had an accident, so she took the initiative to cancel the engagement.”
Shen nodded: "Yes, the girls from these two families are from lower-class merchants, but they are said to help the family manage the household expenses. They are capable of taking on responsibilities and letting go of things.
Although the little girl from the Wu family is a little taller, she is said to have a bad temper, but she is very pretty! "
Shen Ruyi nodded: "Grandma, mother, I think these two little girls should be allowed to be seen by my second brother himself.
There will be a temple fair on March 16th. If they can come out, let my second brother go to the temple fair to take a look. If we like the one, we can decide which family to marry, isn't that good?"
Wei Zhendong smiled and said, "My daughter is really smart and cunning! She is really like the county lady, smart and kind!"
Shen said embarrassedly: "My husband, you always flatter me and spoil my daughter. Look, all her little lips are pouting."
Little Wei Wanqian was unhappy: "Humph! Daddy never praises Wanqian for being smart, but Wanqian is also very smart. My second brother wants to get married, so Wanqian wants to go and see which sister is better, and then let my second brother marry that sister as his second sister-in-law!"
Wei Zhendong laughed loudly: "Hahahaha...what do you know, little kid?
Otherwise, let your second brother take you out to play on the day of the temple fair. Your eldest brother is probably busy during this period!"
Shen Ruyi thought about it and felt that it was right. She smiled and said, "Then let my second brother take me and Wanqian to the temple fair on March 16th. Then we can run into the two young ladies from the Shang family and the Wu family!"
Shen smiled and said, "Then let Uncle Wu go out and spread the word that all the children in our family will go to the temple fair on March 16th. I guess all the girls who are interested in other people will go there by then. Let's go and take a look at Wanshan!"
After Shen finished taking the medicine, she yawned a little while later. The old lady hurriedly came out with her grandchildren and told Wei Zhendong: "You should be alert during your nap. If the county magistrate needs to drink water or work in the fields, you should help him.
As a husband, you have to take responsibility at this time, don't you understand?"
Wei Zhendong deliberately widened his eyes and responded to his mother's instructions: "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely take a nap with my eyes open. I can take responsibility!"
Shen Ruyi and Wei Wanqian couldn't help laughing. The old lady of the Wei family hit her son's shoulder hard and said, "I told you to be naughty!"
The children ran out laughing, the old lady followed them out, and Wei Zhendong also grinned.
After the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion released the news, many families in the capital city knew that the Duke of Fuguo's Mansion was going to find a little girl for their second son, Wei Wanshan.
Wei Wanshan came back from the military camp in the evening. When his family told him the news, he frowned. What Wei Wanshan had been thinking about day and night was actually his stepsister. However, in this era, it was against ethics to covet one's own sister.
Alas! He really could only bury this bitterness deep in his heart!
He knew that if Prince Qin Beiyu took a fancy to Shen Ruyi, no one could snatch her away from him. Qin Beiyu's status was there. He was the future emperor. Could you snatch the girl he liked away from him?
Moreover, Qin Beiyu and Shen Ruyi are cousins who are a perfect match. Moreover, Lady Shen of Fulu County has made contributions to the Qin Dynasty, so it is most appropriate for her daughter to marry the future crown prince.
The royal family has had this custom since ancient times. Just look at the Crown Princess, that is, one's own aunt, she is the descendant of a loyal and brave person, and one's own great-uncle is a meritorious minister of the court!
And the Crown Prince's Consort is also a descendant of a loyal and good family. Their ancestors made contributions to the Qin Dynasty. The mother of the young county princess Shen Ruyi built dams for the court to provide disaster relief and donated grain and money. Isn't this a huge contribution?
Wei Wanshan thought over and over again, and he really didn't dare to speak out his extravagant hopes for his sister, so he could only bury them deep in his heart!
In the blink of an eye, it was March 16th, and Shen Ruyi's arm had completely healed. During this period, she had been doing rehabilitation and exercise.
Today she brought her younger brother and followed her second brother to the temple fair to see if they could participate in a riddle-guessing game and win some prizes for fun!
Early this morning, the two girls, Shen Ruyi and Fu Wanying, were dressed up. They had simply dressed up today and did not dress particularly formally.
Because today the two older brothers in the family are going to take them and Wei Wanqian to attend the temple fair.
Shen's pregnancy has been stable during this period and her mood has improved a lot. Wei Zhendong has now become a good man who takes good care of his wife every day.
He was worried that his wife would frown, and now that his young wife was pregnant with his child, how could he not be happy? He was already in his forties, and he was going to be a father again, hehehe! It was all thanks to his wife's youth!
The couple looked at their five children and reminded them again and again to be careful and told Wei Wanshan to take good care of his younger sister and brother.
The five children, big and small, came out of the Duke's Mansion and strolled towards the street of City God Temple. Soon they separated, and Wei Wanlin took his fiancée to see the flowers.
Because the weather in the capital is suitable in March, young girls and boys all came out to visit the temple fair, and it was indeed lively today.
Suddenly, Uncle Wang who was standing in front of Shen Ruyi turned around and shouted, "In front...the lady from the merchant is in front."
Wei Wanqian, Shen Ruyi and Wei Wanshan quickly turned their heads and looked forward, only to see a tall girl, as thin as a bamboo pole, but with a quite delicate face. She was looking at jade pendants on the street with her maid!
Wei Wanshan took a look, turned his head away and didn't look anymore!
Shen Ruyi and her brother looked at each other. It was over! The second brother didn't like the young lady from the merchant business.
