Time passed quickly, and it was mid-October in a flash.

The autumn wind is rustling, and the tree shadows are few.

Shen Zhen had just had breakfast when she heard loud noises coming from outside. Shen Zhen put on a cloak and walked outside the door, and saw her father with a dozen or so holding knives, wood, axes, ink, and ropes. The Ziren (craftsmen), who came to the west wing.

Shen Wenqi said to a square-faced Ziren, "Make the base here higher, preferably two feet."

Ziren said, "I remember it."

Shen Wenqi nodded and said again, "I'm going to turn the empty yard in the northeast into an ancestral hall, and you'll take someone to measure the heights, depths, squares, and circles later."

The square-faced Ziren scratched his temples and said apologetically, "I'm in a hurry to come out today. The brothers only brought ink and rope, and forgot to bring a ruler."

Shen Wenqi said: "It's okay, I have a ruler in my study, I'll bring it to you later."

The Ziren said "yes" twice, and then said, "Does your lord have any other requirements?"

Shen Wenqi was silent for a while, he looked around, his eyes finally fell on the north wall, which was the closest wall to Bei Ya Yuan where Shen Zhen lived.

Really low.

Lu Yan's old lotus words entered Shen Wenqi's ears again.

Shen Wenqi paused and said to Ziren, "The wall in this yard should be rebuilt with rammed earth."

He wanted to see who else could climb through the wall he built by himself.

Hearing that her father was going to build the wall again, Shen Yan couldn't hold back and laughed with a "poof".

She could guess who the wall was built for with her eyes closed.

Jing Zhaoyin, who is in charge of Chang'an's public security, was also guarded as a thief one day...

Shen Zhen's little face blushed completely, she pushed Shen Yan with her arm with a guilty conscience, "Sister is smiling."

Shen Yan glanced at Shen Zhen narrowly, "What do you think?"

Shen Zhen was speechless and turned back to the yard.

After half an hour, Aunt Zhang opened the curtain and walked in.

Shen Zhen's biological mother passed away, Shen Wenqi did not marry another, and there was no mistress in the family, so Shen Wenqi had to invite an aunt from the palace to teach Shen Zhen's wife the rules.

Shen Zhen got up and said, "Aunt Zhang."

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "Yesterday's ten-color paper, but it's ready?"

Shen Zhen said: "It's done." After that, Shen Zhen handed the ten-color paper to Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang looked at the flower paper in her hand, both in color and pattern, and nodded with satisfaction, "Your hand is really clever."

Although she came to teach the rules on the order of the prince, but after getting along these days, she also fell in love with the lady in front of her from the bottom of her heart.

Because of this liking, Aunt Zhang is also very attentive when teaching people.

The art of literary play, the art of tea, dew, and wine, the art of letterhead, the art of women's red, the art of music and dance, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is taught by all.

Aunt Zhang looked at Shen Zhen and said, "I'm going back to the palace tomorrow. I'm here today because I have something to tell you."

Shen Zhen said seriously, "Auntie, tell me."

Aunt Zhang first took out a list from her cuff, "My lady, look at this first."

Shen Zhen took it, opened it slowly, and then couldn't help but widen her eyes, "This, what is written here is all about the Lu family..."

Aunt Zhang smiled and said, "What I want to tell you today is the Lu family."

There are many doorways in the marriage of high-level families, but how can only those young girls who deal with wives of internal life do it

Lu Yan is the heir of the Duke's Mansion, and the only son of the current Princess Jing'an. When the little lady marries him, she is the patriarch of the Lu family.

Entering the Lu Mansion with two eyes in the dark is naturally impossible.

Aunt Zhang said slowly: "There are currently three rooms in Duke Zhen's mansion, and the one in charge of the house is the big one, that is, your future in-laws, Duke Zhen and Princess Jing'an. Look at this again, the second master of the Lu family. Lu He married the daughter of Shangshu Youcheng, and next to him was the third master Lu Can. He married the wife of the Wen family, the largest cloth merchant in the Jin Dynasty. Oh yes, Meng Zhaorong in the palace was the niece of the Wen family. "

"Among the same generation, Lu Yan has two brothers, Lu Ting and Lu Ye, and two younger sisters, Lu Wei and Lu Heng..."

Aunt Zhang talked for a long time, Shen Zhen's expression changed from shock to admiration, and finally a buzzing sound appeared in her ears.

After talking about the general situation of the Lu family, Aunt Zhang took out another picture booklet and handed it to Shen Zhen, "My lady, look at this again."

Shen Zhen didn't think about it, opened it and took a look, her face blushed inch by inch.

It's all about... men and women.

Shen Zhen's clear and translucent eyes are naturally deceptive, and this red-faced appearance, in Aunt Zhang's eyes, is the appearance of her daughter's family without personnel.

Aunt Zhang has taught many ladies, and knowing that they are shy now, she said to herself, "Don't be shy, lady, you need to understand this sooner or later, you have to ask if you don't understand, I'll tell you the truth. In other words, if the son of the Lu family is someone who knows how to hurt people, it will be fine, if not, if the wife gets married, she will have to suffer some hardships."

It is true that Lu Yan had already let Mrs. Shen eat this hardship once.

Aunt Zhang looked at Shen Zhen's thin skin and tender flesh, and couldn't help but sighed, "Miss, remember, you have married the first night, but you must not let him come, if it hurts, don't bear it. Come on, you must say it, this kind of thing, you really have to endure it, it will be difficult to speak again."

Shen Zhen nodded knowingly, "Remember."

Aunt Zhang then whispered: "The prince will be twenty-five next year, and there is no child under his knees. The most important thing for a lady to marry is the heir. After each time, remember to raise your legs and waist, so that you can easily conceive."

Shen Zhen knew that the child was important, and when she heard this, she raised her head and asked earnestly, "Auntie, how long will it take..."

Aunt Zhang smiled, "Just as I was about to tell the lady, the lady asked. It will be fine in a quarter, a quarter of an hour. If you can't stand it, you can ask Lang Jun to help."

Shen Zhen's small hands suddenly clenched into fists.

After talking about the same room, then you have to start saying things that women all over the world find harsh.

Aunt Zhang said softly: "When the lady has a body, she can't serve the prince in close proximity. At this time, if the lady sees who is good around the prince, she should take the initiative to ask for a concubine, and he will accept it or not. If you bring it up, the lady will be considered a worthy name."

Aunt Zhang continued: "Although the eldest son does not have a proper concubine, there may be girls around him who serve him all year round. After the lady enters the door, you can observe it. If there is a favor, the lady does not have to wait for pregnancy, and give it to her earlier. It's good to be an auntie."

Hearing this, Shen Zhen was stunned for a moment, then nodded stiffly.

After Aunt Zhang looked at her, she knew that she didn't understand the way inside, so she explained: "Although women should not be jealous and have tolerance, but if they really enter the deep house, they still have to have two skills. , if you named 'them', it is equivalent to detaining 'them'. You must know that the concubine is no better than the servant girl. Once the independent courtyard is alone, you can't serve the prince at any time. Can the lady understand? "

Shen Zhen took a long breath, "Thank you aunt, I will definitely keep it in my heart."

Aunt Zhang has been dealing with women all her life, inside the palace, outside the palace, I have never seen anything, read countless people, how can I not see Shen Zhen's character, hesitated again and again, or said something inappropriate "The lady looks at Langjun, but you can't just look at the skin. You have to know how many people have spent their lives knowing their faces and don't know their hearts. They look at serious people at home, and they can't say that there is an outer room hidden outside. Yes, but the lady has to be careful."

Aunt Zhang's words were a bit troubling.

Shen Zhen didn't know if there was a little girl beside Lu Yan, and she didn't ask, but Shen Zhen knew that he did it.

After Aunt Zhang left, Shen Zhen lay all over on the bed, Shen Hao entered the room, saw mixed joy in her eyes, and guessed what Aunt Zhang had told her today.

Before leaving the cabinet, there was such a thing.

Shen Yan patted her head, "What's the matter, don't want to marry?"

Shen Zhen closed her eyes in despair, and said sincerely: "Marriage is a lot of work, just thinking about it makes me tired."

She has to serve her in-laws, deal with the relationship between her sister-in-law, and take care of her sister-in-law.

And that person still needs to inherit the title of the prince. In the future, she will also be in charge of Zhongfu, give birth to a child for him, and have to give birth to a son, and when she is born, she will have to give him a concubine... After taking a concubine, the concubine will be reborn. If you have a concubine and a concubine, you must also take care of her...

The little lady seemed to have lived a miserable life in her mind.

Thinking of this, Shen Zhen said thoughtfully: "As of now, I finally understand what the second sister said."

"Which one?"

"I envy Shen Hong." I envy that Shen Hong can marry a wife without marrying out.

Shen Yan couldn't help laughing at her, "Where did you go to comfort me two days ago? I told you long ago that being a girl at home is the most comfortable thing." These words were really Shen Yan's heart. She married Li Di, but it was low, but even if the rank was very different, during those four years, she had to serve the Wen family every morning.

Shen Hao sympathetically touched Shen Zhen's soft hair and said in her heart, "May you marry him and not suffer the grievances I have suffered."

Shen Zhen kicked his legs on the couch, and then remained motionless, like a salted fish resigned to his fate.

Shen Hao patted her bulging buttocks and said with a smile, "Zhen Er, do you want to go to the street with my sister?"

Shen Zhen rolled over and sat up, "Yes."

Following Shen Sanniang's "seeing through life", Lu Sanlang finally kicked the first iron plate in his life.

Lu Yan frowned and looked at the file in his hand, rubbing his brows from time to time.

Recently, the Ministry of Industry expanded the city gate, and Jingzhao House was supervised by it. Although Shen Shangshu never felt sorry for him, he could see that his father-in-law had a lot of opinions on him.

At this moment, Yang Zong walked in in a hurry, handed over a list, and said, "Sir, Honglu Temple has just presented the list of the kingdoms coming to court."

Lu Yan took it, browsed through it very quickly, found the Uighur, and stopped.

Sure enough, everything in front of him was completely different from what he had in his dream.

Princess Yonghe is impressively listed.

"Go." Lu Yan got up.

Yang Zong frowned and said, "Where is the master going?"

Lu Yan said: "Go and send a message to Lord Shen."

Lu Yan rode his horse to Baoningfang, but as soon as he arrived at the Shen residence, he heard the constant sound of axe chisels, and when he turned his eyes, he saw a dozen Zi people building walls with rammed earth.

He paused and clenched the list in his hand.

This late autumn wind is really cool.

Yang Zong whispered from the side: "My subordinates knocked on the door?"

Lu Yan took a deep breath and made a low "um".

Shen Wenqi was drawing the drawings of the ancestral hall in the study, and the servant knocked on the door.

"Come in."

The servant bowed and said, "Sir, Jing Zhaoyin is waiting to see you outside."

Shen Wenqi paused, "Who?"

"Jing Zhaoyin."

Shen Wenqi put down his pen, "Hurry up and call someone in."

Lu Yan was brought into the study, he bowed and bowed, the word father-in-law circled on the tip of his tongue, and said, "Sir Shen."

Shen Wenqi glanced at him, "It's not facing up here, sit down and talk."

Lu Yan's Adam's apple moved, "Junior is here today because he has something to tell Lord Shen."

Shen Wenqi smiled and said, "Sanlang can say it directly if he has something to say."

With a word of Saburo, Lu Yan's scalp was numb again.

He hurriedly handed over the list in his hand, "This is just sent to the younger generation by Honglu Temple. At the end of this year, Princess Yonghe will return to the court."

The voice fell to the ground, and the sound of the axe suddenly stopped.

Shen Wen hurriedly picked up the list in front of him, his eyes fixed on the lower left corner, but he couldn't help it for a long time.

When I looked up again, I couldn't help but soften Lu Yan's gaze...
