Chapter 1071: Thoughts
Hearing what his father said, Yu Xin finally understood. This is a series of eliminations and fights, trying to cover up the things that are not good for Qiao'er under Shen Hao's fierce power. At that time, even if those young people who coveted Qiao'er knew about the not-so-nice name of Naturally Charming, they would not dare to publicize it, after all, they would look ugly.
"But father, what if Shen Hao loses?" Yu Xin also experienced difficulties from the bride's family when he got married, and he still has lingering fears in recalling the feeling. I understand, what should I do if I am caught off guard?
This is no joke, if the groom gets stuck in the marriage process, that would be a big deal, especially for a person like Shen Hao, who doesn't look good in face and inside, and it is not impossible for him to walk away in a fit of embarrassment. At that time, Shen Hao doesn't have to care about his reputation, it's not good anyway, but what about the Yu family? What about Yu Qiao?
Looking at the worried expression of her eldest son, Yu Shu felt a little dizzy. It was really not a matter of attitude, but of his own limitations, and he was really stupid.
"Hey, who do you think Shen Hao is? Or do you think those officials or boys who are still in school have great abilities?
In this world, there is no one who can climb from the humble end all the way to the position of a fourth-rank official. What's more, it is a place where Xuanqingwei is on the line of life and death. That Shen Hao murderer has a bloody reputation, but who can do anything to win him?
If Shen Hao is compared to jackals, tigers and leopards, those eager kids outside are nothing more than a group of lambs that haven't even grown their horns.
So you're still worried that Shen Hao won't be able to cope with the mere customs here? "
Yu Xin just shook his head again and again. I also thought in my heart that I was really concerned about it before, and I was still worried about a hungry wolf being turned over by a group of lambs, which is also funny.
Seeing Yu Xin's expression, Yu Shu could only sigh, and didn't expect the other party to comprehend much on his own. I can only say again: "Besides, let me remind you again that two days later, Qiaoer officially entered the Shen family. The relationship between this is not just Qiaoer himself changing, but our entire Yu family's identity is also different." There is a huge change.
From now on, whether we like it or not, we will all be regarded as hardcore players in Shen Hao's line. Afterwards, Xuanqingwei and Junwu will show more kindness to us, but the corresponding civil servants will begin to deliberately and slowly alienate us.
My position as the grand sacrificial wine will come to an end in a few years. None of the family, including you, is expected to be an official, so it's okay for everyone to settle down in their own yamen, and it's not ugly to mess around.
But if the family wants to make further progress in the future, it is only possible if they are attached to Shen Hao. If you can't turn this corner, forget it, remember what I said, be aware of it, and follow suit in the future.
remember! "
Yu Xin didn't mind his father's bad words, he knew how much he knew, and he could be an idle official if he was an official, otherwise he would feel that he couldn't handle things. Anyway, I can do whatever my father asks me to do, and I can't suffer.
What's more, if Yu Xin wants to come, there will be a black flag battalion commander as his son-in-law in the future, so what does it matter if he is alienated by those civil officials outside? Who would dare to mess with their Yu family?
Without much ambition, the mentality is naturally easy to be satisfied.
As for whether Yu Xin is stupid or not? It depends on how you think.
With all the worries in his heart gone, Yu Xin naturally couldn't stay and chat with his father all the time. A big family event was coming soon, and he was very busy. After saluting, he left the study and was about to go to the back kitchen to have a look. Today, more than a dozen cooks were called in to help, and the big banquet the day after tomorrow was the Yu family's arrangement for their own daughter, and it was also a scene to show their strength in front of the Shen family. Can't go wrong.
Yu Xin left, but Yu Shu continued to sit and drink tea in the study with tea. He didn't need to worry about the past and the future. What he needed to consider was the changes that the entire Yu family had to deal with after his granddaughter got married.
Just as Yu Xin thought, having a wolf as a son-in-law can indeed make most people fearful, even fearful. But a wolf is not a dog. If you want to get along well with it, you must be careful.
In addition, Yu Shu is also thinking about how to help his future grandson-in-law. If he can make it to a higher level, then the Yu family will naturally be able to rely on him to rise to the top after a hundred years.
The reason why Yu Shu asked his granddaughter to betroth Shen Hao in the first place was not only the granddaughter's natural charm, but also Shen Hao's two advantages in the officialdom. First, although the reputation is not good, it emphasizes credibility and nostalgia. Second, there are very few women around him, except for the barbarian female slave at home, he only has an affair with a singer.
Emphasis on credibility and nostalgia made Shen Hao's character very distinct. He was bloody and cruel to the outside world, and he also had a kind of old-fashioned and stubborn protection for his own people. In Yu Shu's view, this is the quality that a head of the family should have.
And the latter "few women", which is rare in the officialdom of Jingjiu Dynasty. Especially someone with real power like Shen Hao. Even if you don't get married, who doesn't have a concubine outside? Even Yu Shu himself, and his son, were not as romantic before they got married? This is an "elegant interest" even in literati circles.
Some people talk about love, and after getting married, they take the outer room home to become a concubine. More is a clean break, it seems very ruthless.
After all, what is the outer room in front of the "good family" represented by the main wife?
The three female slaves in Shen Hao's family are not considered human beings and can be ignored. Even if Shen Hao dotes on the three female slaves again, it is impossible to get seeds from the fox girl. What is the identity of the remaining diva? With the status of the Yu family, not to mention crushing one's heart to death, at least it can suppress the other party to the point of prostrating on the ground and not daring to look up.
The combination of these two reasons means that Yu Qiao's child will definitely be Shen Hao's most suitable heir in the future. Correspondingly, the Yu family can get the most benefits as a natal family.
This is also the reason why Yu Shu is already helping to consider how to promote her future grandson-in-law before her granddaughter officially married. The purpose is to make the granddaughter and the Yu family more important in the heart of the future grandson-in-law.
Of course, these little calculations that are not on the table are also Yu Shu's helpless actions. If he had a good-for-nothing heir under his knees, he wouldn't be able to put the treasure on a person with a foreign surname.
The Yu family is busy here, and the Shen family in Xin Liangcheng is also busy.
According to the procedures stipulated in the wedding booklet, Shen Shi should welcome the bride from Qizhou to Huixinliang City, and then follow the etiquette on the Shen family's side, such as worshiping the hall and worshiping the ancestors. and the wedding reception in the evening.
Even compared to the ostentation of the Yu family, the ostentation of Xin Liangcheng is even bigger. The person who directly helped to hang the red sprinkler on the street was not some government servant, but the Black Flag Camp of Xuanqingwei!
Even before the big wedding was held, crowds of people of all kinds who wanted to come over to "mean meaning" and at least leave a name card were already wandering around Shen's house, looking for an opportunity to hand in the generous gifts in their storage bags. go.
Finally, with the consent of Shen Hao, all those who came to give gifts and did not have a wedding invitation were invited to leave. They even sent an elite from the Black Banner Battalion of the Small Banner Battalion over to the Shen family to prevent accidents.
