Chapter 440 Brother and Sister

Chapter 440 Brother and Sister
"My husband, what are you doing?" Yu Wenjun asked while sorting her clothes in the bedroom.

"Having a feast with my disciples." Xun replied.

Yu Wenjun nodded, and then asked, "Jiangxia, will these students become officials and generals in the future?"

Xun thought for a moment and said, "Most of them are like that. Talented people become officials, those with average talents become minor officials in the shogunate or counties, or work as clerks in the army. Those who are really unfit for the job can only be captains or deputy captains in the army."

Yu Wenjun first said "Oh", then asked: "Jiangxia, how do you know so clearly?"

"I don't know how many people in Henan are paying attention to Mr. Chen." Xun smiled and said, "In the past two years, I'm afraid even the things Mr. Chen did when he was a child have been dug up by people. What secrets can there be?"

Yu Wenjun was thoughtful. It seemed that the martial arts students from Liang County were very important to her husband, and could be called a pillar of support.

Come to think of it, if these more than 10,000 Silver Spear Army were destroyed, it is hard to say how many people in Henan would still support my husband.

"Then do you want to--" Yu Wenjun said hesitantly.

Xun looked at her puzzledly.

Yin saw through it, nodded slightly, and said, "We have to think of a good way, but don't make it too obvious."

Xun also thought of it, and she looked at Yin with jealousy.

Yin lowered her head, her face flushed, her small hands pinching the edge of her skirt, not knowing what she was thinking.

Yu Wenjun was silently sorting out her clothes, her mind wandering.

Suddenly, the hand stopped.

There are two red military uniforms, both with the word "Xun" embroidered on the chest, but I don't know where it came from.

There was also a blue robe, beautifully made from the finest materials, but it didn't fit particularly well and was definitely not from home.

Yu Wenjun's nose felt sore, and she silently said in her heart: "I am a wife, I must be generous! I must be generous!"

But as I thought about it, I felt more and more sad.

She was only sixteen years old and had not yet learned how to better control her emotions. For a moment, she felt her head buzzing and felt very uncomfortable.

She felt she had gone too far.

Nowadays, every scholar has three wives and four concubines. There are also many who keep hundreds of concubines and indulge in sexual pleasure all day long. Aren't their wives very generous? They don't even ask about their husbands' unruly behavior. Isn't this what mothers teach women to be generous?
But she found it really difficult.

She just wanted to throw herself into her husband's arms, let her husband pamper her and love her, and it would be best if she stopped flirting with other men outside.

"Pu Tao, go to the warehouse and get some valuables and give one to each of your husband's disciples." Yu Wenjun suddenly said.

"What property do you want to take?" Xiao Yu asked.

"Take it from the dowry I brought." Yu Wenjun calmed herself down and said, "A new disciple will be rewarded with a piece of brocade, and an old disciple will be rewarded with a piece of silver."

"Okay." Xiao Yu immediately left to take care of it.

Xun, Guanqiu and Yin all fell silent.

Compared with Yu Wenjun, they have more resentment.

This year a pond was dug in the palace for people to bathe, and Mr. Chen liked it very much.

When bathing, they took turns stripping naked and entering the pool to scrub Chen Gong, but Chen Gong never touched them. Occasionally, he would take advantage of them and make a few jokes, but that was all.

Wenjun often deliberately passed by the bathhouse, and her pretending to be magnanimous was really ridiculous.

Everyone has his or her own sorrows.

After sorting out the clothes, Yu Wenjun went to the study and sorted out books and manuscripts for her husband.

There was a bamboo box on the ground next to the table, with wooden slips stacked in the box. Yu Wenjun had sharp eyes and saw a small box.

She hesitated for a long time, picked up the box, opened it, and saw a piece of jewelry inside.

The jewelry is a jade bead ring with a distinct Western style. Inside the ring is engraved the words: "I don't have the wings of a phoenix, but our hearts are connected. To my beloved wife, Wenjun."

Yu Wenjun picked it up with trembling hands, her face flushed, as if she was struck by great happiness.

The phoenix is ​​a mythical bird in ancient legends, colorful and extremely beautiful.

Tongxi is a strange beast in the "Book of Han". It has two heads and is also known as Tongtianxi.

These two lines of poetry use a very clever allusion, which means that although they cannot fly together like colorful phoenixes and accompany each other all the time, the husband and wife have a mutual understanding and can feel each other's longing even though they are in different places.

Her eyes narrowed again and she smiled with a little crescent shape. The slight bitterness from before had long since disappeared without a trace.

She looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. She reluctantly put the ring back and put the bookcase back to its original state. Then she didn't tidy up the study room, lifted her skirt and quietly slipped out.

Along the way, he couldn't help but smile, and his mood couldn't be better, until he saw his brother Yu Liang coming to visit him.

"Mrs. Yu." Yu Liang bowed respectfully.

"Brother." Yu Wenjun shouted happily.

Yu Liang was helpless, but also very happy.

My sister's marriage to Mr. Chen was a political one, but as a brother, I was very happy to see that my sister was as happy as if she was soaking in a honey pot.

Who says that political marriages cannot bring about a loving couple? Some people can experience happiness between husband and wife and gain boundless wealth. This is fate.

Yu Wenjun led Yu Liang to the side hall, ordered the servants to bring tea and wine, and then asked, "Brother, are you not going back to accompany your sister-in-law?"

Yu Liang glared at her and said pointedly, "Who is like you, always talking about your husband? You've been married for almost a year, when will you give birth to a child?"

When Yu Wenjun heard this, her face first turned red, and then she frowned.

When her husband came back, he picked her up like a hungry wolf and stripped her naked, but she never got pregnant. It seemed that she had to stick to her husband all the time, and she liked to stick to him anyway.

"Let's not talk about this." Yu Liang paused, and then said, "Why did Mr. Chen call his disciples to a banquet today?"

Yu Wenjun came back to her senses from her reverie and asked with a frown, "Brother, why are you asking these questions?"

Yu Liang almost held his forehead and sighed, "I have recruited soldiers for Lord Chen several times. The Silver Spear Army has always been different from other troops. They don't want scattered soldiers from the imperial guards, bandits, or nobles. They are all newcomers who know nothing. Even the officers are all students of Lord Chen. Outsiders can't get in, let alone know the inside story."

Yu Wenjun listened quietly, feeling a little uneasy subconsciously.

Yu Liang glanced at his sister and whispered, "You are their teacher's wife. Sometimes you should care about the private affairs of your students. Are their parents alive? Are they short of money? Are they married? You can ask them all."

Yu Wenjun hummed and said, "Just now I asked Pu Tao to pick up some gifts and give them to the guests at the banquet."

Yu Liang glanced at his sister approvingly and said, "That's right. Take your time, don't rush. You are their master's wife, you must live up to this title and let them always recognize you. In this way, the benefits are unimaginable. No one can predict what will happen in the future, but the Silver Spear Army is the decisive force, and no one can be their opponent."

Yu Wenjun said "oh".

But to be honest, she found it a bit troublesome.

Snuggling in her husband's arms and enjoying his favor is her favorite thing. Is it necessary to make so much trouble?

Furthermore, hehe, "My beloved wife Wenjun".

No one else had this honor, especially the owners of the red and blue robes - well, the one who gave the red robe might be Empress Hui Yang, and who gave the blue robe?
Yu Wenjun's thoughts had already flown to other places.

Yu Liang was still chattering: "It is normal for a teacher's wife to prepare gifts for her students during festivals. Even Mr. Chen would not say anything. You are only sixteen years old. You have a long time to live. If you persevere for decades, who can shake your position? In the future, the officers of the Silver Spear Army will only have one teacher's wife, and that is you. Do you understand?"

"Oh." Yu Wenjun held her chin with her slender hand, her beautiful eyes staring at the dust in the air. Her face turned red from time to time, and no one knew what she was thinking.

Yu Liang was furious when he saw this. Why is my sister so stupid?
With such a huge advantage and a guaranteed win, if you still mess up, isn't that unfair?

"What did Mr. Chen and his disciples talk about at the banquet today?" Yu Liang looked around and asked in a low voice.

Yu Wenjun came back to her senses and remained silent.

Yu Liang said she was stupid, but that was not true. In fact, how could a woman who had been educated by the aristocracy be really stupid? It was just that Yu Wenjun was too lazy to care about those things.

She was just a sixteen-year-old girl, greedy for her husband's tenderness, her mind full of love, and she really didn't want to intrigue with too many people.

To some extent, she is an unqualified mistress, with no dignity and no means.

The mistress of the Shao Mansion now is Shao's mother Liu rather than her. She is a real water balance master and knows her limits. Without her mother to help watch over Huang Mao's family, the family would have been in chaos.

But then again, people always grow.

Yu Wenjun has changed a little since she first got married.

Especially on the day in the hot spring, she smelled the scent of another woman on her husband. For a moment, she was struck by lightning.

It's amazing that Huangmao keeps doing evil and makes the innocent and kind girl grow up passively.

"I don't know what I said." Yu Wenjun shook her head and said.

Yu Liang said in a tone of regret: "You've been married for a year, and you don't have any trusted servants?"

Yu Wenjun lowered her head, feeling a little sad.

"The New Year is coming soon. It is your duty as a mistress to show kindness to the servants. You should take care of it yourself." Yu Liang sighed and said, "Since you are married, you are naturally a wife of the Shao family, but your parents and siblings are also relatives. At the critical moment, only your relatives can help you. Think about it carefully."

"Yeah." Yu Wenjun responded softly.

"My foolish brother brought some gifts. Send someone to collect them later." Yu Liang stood up and said, "There are many things to do before the New Year. I won't delay any longer. I'm leaving now."

Yu Wenjun stood up and walked her to the door.

When she returned to the side hall, she was somewhat distracted.

He thought of the military uniforms one moment and the ring the next, and his expression became extremely conflicted.

The sky quickly darkened.

The students drank for the whole afternoon and then dispersed, supporting each other.

Footsteps sounded outside the side hall.

"What are you thinking about?" Shao Xun hugged his little wife and asked softly.

Yu Wenjun's tears flowed uncontrollably. On one side was her husband, and on the other side were her relatives, which made her feel very annoyed.

Shao Xun knew that Yu Liang had just been here, and after staring at his wife's expression, he had some guesses in his mind and felt that it was time to use a big move.

He gently kissed away the tears from his wife's eyes, then took her hand and said, "I have a gift for my favorite person."

Yu Wenjun's head buzzed and she followed Shao Xun in a daze.

My nose felt a little sour, and the grievances in my heart were finally released. Joy grew from the bottom of my heart, and there was only my husband's figure in my eyes.

Shao Xun was alert.

He was a little scared because he had told so many lies.

However, his foundation is constantly being strengthened, so he may not need to worry so much in the future.

Wenjun was young, innocent, and extremely attached to me. I didn't need to pay any price to make her heart completely tied to me.

But Shao Xun always felt guilty about deceiving the little girl.

It seems that there are too many women who I feel guilty about.
