Chapter 268: The son travels thousands of miles and the mother is worried

Although the capital is about to be moved, Nanjing is still a prosperous and peaceful scene. To this day, many court officials still believe that this golden ancient capital of the Six Dynasties is the most suitable place in the world to be a capital. However, Zhu Di has a temper that even nine oxen can't control.

, those officials who dissuaded and opposed the move did not end well, and they had no choice but to watch various ministries move north one after another. Therefore, in order to stay in Nanjing, many people even often went to the East Palace and the Chengguo Palace.

In comparison, Zhang Zhuo, the magistrate of Jiangning County, is only a seventh-grade sesame official, and he does not have to worry about jumping up and down like other officials. He is the only one in the imperial capital, where everyone is a superior official, and he spends more than half of his days away from home for socializing.

, this county magistrate is really in trouble. If he had not had a strong backing, and had Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, to take care of him in many ways, just because he was an official for the first time, people would be able to find a lot of mistakes.

In the Ming Dynasty system, any official who did not live in an official house in a public house, but lived in a public house on the street, had an eighty stick. Therefore, he and Sun naturally lived in the Jiangning County Yamen. Since they were under the emperor's feet, the Jiangning County Yamen was also higher than usual.

The county government office was more than twice as big, and there were many buildings in the back office, which could easily accommodate all the family members and servants. Without her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, the Sun family lived a comfortable life, that is, the concubine Hongluan

When she was diagnosed with pregnancy last time, she felt quite annoyed, but it passed in a moment.

Zhang You and his wife are very affectionate, and they know that Mr. Sun is very ambitious and has limited vision. Therefore, most of his son's work as an official is hidden from his wife. Even if there is a letter, he will read it in the study first, and then go back and pick out what he can say to Sun.

Mrs. Sun told the truth and concealed countless things one after another. Therefore, Mrs. Sun only thought that everything was safe when Zhang Yue was in office, and had no idea that troubles had happened to the Du family and the Meng family. She only took care of the housework and took care of her daughter, and was cautious.

As a housekeeper, he rarely interacts with other women's families.

On this day, she and her two girls, Zhenzhu Shaoyao, were sorting through several pieces of silk and satin, preparing to make two new bellybands for their daughter. Suddenly, she heard a young daughter-in-law calling outside the door: "Madam, outside

My uncle is here and said he opened the envelope specially to see my wife!"

Upon hearing this, Ms. Sun was immediately stunned. Her ancestors were also from a family of officials. Although her father was not an official, his family was still well off and was considered a wealthy family in Kaifeng Mansion. That was why she married the Zhang family in the first place. However, her father passed away.

After that, the two brothers divided the family property, but no one paid attention to her sister, who was not popular in the Zhang family. It wasn't until her husband and son passed the imperial examination and had a good background, that they often sent people to send them things.

But the friendship between them has long since faded.

Putting down a piece of cocoon silk in her hand, she couldn't help but sneered: "You came here especially to see me? Think about where they were when I was worried about Brother Yue's illness? Where were they when I was frustrated at home?

Where were they when I went home to beg them to try to help me? Now they came all the way from Kaifeng to see me, but they were nowhere to be seen!"

Pearl Qing knew that Mr. Sun was talking angrily, so she quickly stood up and persuaded her: "Madam, since it is my uncle who came here from Kaifeng, no matter what the reason is, you should meet him, otherwise it will not be nice for others to gossip. If

If it's not a big deal, the wife will agree to it; if it's something difficult, the wife will push it away, and no one else has anything to say. The eldest wife and the second wife's parents' families are both well-known and wealthy, and they are usually very helpful to them. Now the master

The young master has already achieved success, so why not help your mother-in-law's family?"

"I'm afraid they won't be able to help Liu Adou!" Mrs. Sun said this, but her heart was still moved by Pearl's words. She glanced at her sideways and smiled, "Since you said that, just talk to her.

I'll go out to meet him together. I'll stay here and pick the two peony ones that are the best and have no threads. Wait for me to come back and start sewing again."

Shaoyao quickly agreed, and Pearl followed Sun out of the house with a smile. Since this was a relative of the family, Sun asked to meet the guests in the small flower hall. She followed the corridor to the end of the field, and as soon as she stepped into the threshold, she saw the first person on the left.

Sitting on a chair was the eldest brother Sun Fengwei. He was wearing a Weiluo Huayang scarf on his head, a trendy blue gauze shirt, an azure ribbon tied around his waist, and a pair of dusty black-faced cloth shoes at his feet.

He looks much older than he did a few years ago.

Seeing Mrs. Sun come in, Sun Fengwei was stunned for a moment, then stood up to greet her with a smile on his face: "Third sister."

When Mrs. Sun thought about the past, her teeth itched with hatred. At this moment, she just agreed lightly. Seeing that Sun Feng was still sitting alone before he made a move, she couldn't help but frowned. She was from a womanly family, and when she saw her own brother

Of course it doesn't matter, but why would you meet an outsider for no reason? Then she asked with a sullen face: "Brother, you came here as soon as you came, why did you bring someone else with you?"

"How could he be an outsider? This is our cousin who has never been born in the fifth service, our fourth brother Sun Fengjia. You met him at home when you were a child. How could you forget?" Sun Fengwei said as if he didn't notice Sun's cold look.

He winked at the man below, "Fourth brother's family has always lived in the western Zhejiang area. He happened to meet me when he went to Henan a few days ago, so I was thinking of coming to the capital to see you. In fact, I had already

I just wanted to come, but you also know that my family has a large population, and there is a lot of food, drink and chewing..."

Hearing what Sun Fengyi said, Ms. Sun felt even more angry. At this time, Sun Fengjia stood up. He was wearing a sky blue wide-sleeved gauze robe and a dragon scale gauze scarf on his head, looking energetic.

She came forward neatly and politely to meet her. Mrs. Sun didn't know how smart this cousin she had not seen for a long time was, so she hurriedly returned the favor. After the two sides exchanged some polite words, she saw Sun Fengjia holding a cup from the small table next to her.

A red carved lacquer box comes.

"Third sister, I have been living in western Zhejiang, but I haven't been back to Kaifeng for a long time. You got married, had children, and all the important things have not caught up with me. It was also when I came back to Kaifeng that I bumped into my seventh brother, and then I realized that the two families are so close now.

.We haven’t seen each other for many years. This is my opinion. They are all specialties from western Zhejiang. Third sister, please don’t laugh at me and just pick some worthless things.”

She stretched out her hand to avoid hitting the smiling man. Besides, Sun only hated her brother who was not ruthless at first, and she didn't have any dislike for Sun Fengjia. Hearing his polite words, she quickly thanked her and motioned to the pearl beside her to reach out and take it.

The main seats in the west were seated. After the guests and hosts sat down again, Sun Feng couldn't help but say with saliva that his family was deteriorating and the cost of marrying his children was very high. Finally, he shamelessly said that the Sun family was very lucky.

"I didn't mean not to come to the Zhang family at the beginning, but I was really embarrassed because my family was in decline. The Zhang family is the number one family in Kaifeng, and the old lady is very well-behaved. Aren't I afraid of losing your face? Now

Both my brother-in-law and my nephew are promising. Third sister, you are sure to be an official wife. I am also happy for you from the bottom of my heart. I heard that my nephew is now favored by the Holy Spirit. He went back to Beijing a few days ago and now he is

I went to Qingzhou as an imperial envoy, and I will definitely have a bright future and rise in the ranks..."

Sun was quite happy to hear this at first, but when her brother got more excited and mentioned that Zhang Yue had returned to Beijing and then went to Qingzhou, her expression suddenly changed. A few days ago, a letter was sent from her son, and Zhang You also

After reading that letter to her, how come she didn't mention these things at all? Zhang You even said that his son did a good job in Qingzhou and was safe? For a moment, she felt so confused that Sun Fengwei said

She didn't listen to any of the compliments.

Sun Feng had not noticed that she was distracted, but Sun Fengjia was keenly aware of it. He was not just here to get married to this wealthy relative, but he also had something important to ask for, so he interrupted Sun Feng with a slight cough.

He praised her endlessly. Seeing that Mrs. Sun's face was stunned and that he might not be able to hear what he said, he simply stood up and bowed deeply to Mr. Sun: "Third sister, today I am coming to the house with my seventh brother. In fact, there are more

I am asking for help in a big matter, and I hope you can help me!"

Seeing that Ms. Sun was still stunned, Pearl quickly pushed her arm gently and reminded her in a low voice: "Madam!"

At this moment, Mrs. Sun's heart was filled with her son. When she came back to her senses, she saw Sun Fengjia bowing to her to the ground. She just came back to her senses and hurriedly stood up and said: "Fourth brother, please get up quickly. If you have anything, just tell me and I can help."

Of course I will help. It’s just that I’m a womanly person and never care about outside affairs. If there is anything really important, it has to be decided by my master.”

"Third sister, to be honest, I also just found out that my son and your son are both Jinshi in the same field, and they both took office in Shandong by chance. But he is impatient and arrogant, and his superiors, colleagues, and subordinates don't get along well. Before, he was

I was imprisoned because I did something wrong. I have spent countless efforts and have never inquired about his situation. Now I can only shamelessly ask you for help. I don't ask him to keep any official position or career.

As long as he can save his life, I, as a father, will be satisfied!"

Mrs. Sun never expected that Sun Fengjia would beg for this, and she was immediately at a loss. Now she was also thinking about her son, and she wanted to save him by herself. Sun Fengjia's son was imprisoned in the prison of Jinyi Guard, and his life and death were uncertain. Naturally, she was even more worried. However, Zhang Xin wanted to

Exonerating the crime cost the family a lot of effort. Even if she wanted to help, how could she have the ability?

After thinking about it, she could only say with an embarrassed look on her face: "Fourth brother, it's not that I don't want to help, it's really hard to do anything in Jinyiwei. My master is only a seventh-rank official..."

Before he finished speaking, Sun Fengwei on the side rushed to speak: "Third sister, don't underestimate your brother-in-law. When I was in Kaifeng, I once saw my brother-in-law eating at the same table as Yuan Qianhu from the Henan Health Center.

He looks very close to me. Yuan Qianhu is now the commander-in-chief of Yuan Dynasty. If his brother-in-law said a word, wouldn't this matter be easy to handle? Besides, the fourth brother will certainly not let you help for nothing. For the sake of his son, he will give all his heart to you.

Don’t hesitate to spend all your family property, fourth brother, don’t you think so?”

Sun Fengjia just wanted to grab the only life-saving straw at the moment, and simply took advantage of the situation and knelt down: "Third sister, I also know that this matter has a huge stake in it, but I hope you can save my son. If necessary, take care of it.

No matter how much it is, I will raise the money for where I want to go. I only have one son, and if he has any shortcomings, our husband and wife will not be able to survive..."

Faced with this pleading, Mrs. Sun suddenly thought of Zhang Yue who was far away in a foreign country, and couldn't help but feel like a knife was twisting her heart. Here, her cousin Sun Fengjia did everything to save her son, but what about her own son over there? Now she can
