Female Official In the East Palace - Chapter 199
Rong Da’s longevity material was prepared many years ago. When he passed away, Rong Sheng endured his grief and immediately organized the funeral.
Rong Xin didn’t want to interfere in the affairs of his younger brother’s house, so when Rong Sheng and Ye’s husband and wife came to ask for instructions, they only said: “This family wants your husband and wife to support it, and it’s up to you to decide. If there is a problem that cannot be solved, it is not too late to ask me again.”
“Sister is right.”
Rong Xin had noticed before that Rong Yu’s daughter-in-law had been busy with her, and when she saw her face pale, she said: “Shuyu has just given birth, so go back to the house to rest first, so as not to fall ill. .”
Zheng Shuyu hurriedly said: “My grandfather died, how can I go back and be lazy?”
“I told you to go back, no one will say you are lazy.” Rong Xin said, looking at the two elders, Rong Sheng and Ye Shi, and the old lady Ding Shi, who was ill at this time In bed, I can’t handle this at all.
Ye’s is not really a bad mother-in-law, but she was really busy before, so she could only let Zheng Shuyu go out of the house to serve the old man when she was in confinement.
At this time, when Ye Shi heard Rong Xin’s words, he immediately said to Zheng Shuyu: “It’s fine if you have me outside, you can go back to the house to take care of the children.”
Zheng Shuyu was embarrassed to leave and hesitated.
Rong Xin thought that a female family member of Ye’s family, and the guests who came to pay homage, she was really too busy, so she changed her mouth and said: “I’ll help my younger brother and sister cook together, and Shuyu will go back and raise it. When you really need the eldest grandson’s daughter-in-law to come forward, come out again.”
Having said this, Zheng Shuyu could no longer refuse the kindness of the elders, so he went back to her and Rong Yu’s house.
Ye thanked: “I haven’t experienced this, and I feel much more at ease to have my sister to help.”
Rong Xin saw that her face was also very bad, so she turned to Rong Sheng and said, “Mother also needs someone to look after her, so let’s hire a few helpers, so as not to exhaust the whole family.”
Rong Yu said: “I’ll go down the mountain to find someone.”
“Rong Jing, let’s go.” Rong Xin said to Rong Sheng and his son, “I have something to tell you.”
After Rong Jing left, Rong Xin asked, “Have you asked Rong Jing? Shun Tianfu Township Test Fraud Case, are you sure he wasn’t involved?”
“No, as soon as the fraud case came out, Renzhao Academy strictly investigated the students in the academy.” Rong Sheng said without concealment, “The only connection between Jing’er is that there is a cheater. The candidates are former classmates of Jing’er, but after Jing’er was admitted to the academy, she seldom returned to the capital and had not been in touch for a long time.”
Rong Yu asked nervously, “Aunt, will it affect Jing’er’s future?”
As soon as Rong Yu heard it, he repeatedly said that during the heat of filial piety, he would stay at home with his younger brother in peace and filial piety.
When Rong Sheng and his son, together with Ye Shi, were busy, Rong Xin pressed his eyebrows and went to take care of his mother Ding Shi.
But it is not a bad thing to think about, there is no need to live as an indifferent person.
After Rong Da’s obituary was sent out, people began to come to offer condolences one after another, and the fastest ones were the Rong family’s relatives, the Zheng family.
Zheng Shuyu’s mother also came to visit. Rong Xin had seen her when the young couple got married, so seeing her at this time is not unfamiliar.
However, Zheng Shuyu’s mother was very cautious when facing Rong Xin. She probably listened to what Zheng Shuyu said, and came to express her gratitude to Rong Xin.
Rong Xin just smiled and turned to Ye Shi to entertain, and then she found that Zheng Shuyu’s mother relaxed visibly.
“Aunt.” Rong Jing walked in in a hurry and whispered beside Rong Xin, “The servant of the Prince of Xi is outside, saying that the Prince of Xi has arrived at the foot of the mountain, and then he will come to worship.”
Rong Da’s white affairs, after the hope that this county king came to pay homage, how could the Rong family afford it?
When Rong Xin greeted him and went out, Rong Sheng and others all walked to the door in a grand manner to greet the King of Xi.
“Your Majesty, why are you here?”
“I came to pay homage to your grandfather.”
Jingxi was dressed neatly today, and after explaining to Rong Xin, he nodded to Rong Sheng and the others, stepped into the spirit shed, took the incense, bowed, and then inserted it into the incense burner.
Rong Sheng is the head of the family, even if he is restrained in the face of Jingxi, he still steps up to thank him: “Xie Jun Wang came to mourn my father.”
Jingxi greeted a few politely, ignoring the rest of the guests, turned to Rong Xin and said, “If the lady officer Rong can spare time, it would be convenient for me to have a few words with you?”
Rong Xin nodded, led Jingxi out of the side door, stood under the tree, and said, “Your Majesty, please speak.”
“I came here at the behest of His Royal Highness. His Highness heard that the old man of the Rong family passed away suddenly, and ordered me to tell you that you can return to the palace after the affairs outside the palace are properly handled, and you should also pay attention to your health. .”
Rong Xin heard the words, and thanked her with very gentle eyes: “Please let the king of the county specially inform you.”
Jingxi slowly turned her back, faced the towering tree, coughed and comforted casually: “Rong female officer, condolences and change.”
Rong Xin was slightly blessed, “I’m fine, thank the king.”
“I am conveying it on behalf of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please don’t misunderstand the female officer.”
“Yes.” Rong Xin pretended to believe his words and said seriously, “When I go back, I will definitely thank His Royal Highness the Prince in person.”
Jingxi turned around, a little worried, “In that case, I’ll go back first.”
After he finished speaking, he took a step and walked away. Rong Xin slightly increased his volume and smiled: “Thank you the king.”
The corners of Jingxi’s mouth rose, and she led the guard away briskly.
The Rong family doesn’t have many relatives and friends, basically they are the contacts accumulated after coming out of the Hesheli’s house.
Just a quiet wake-up call is a lot easier.
On the fifth day of the cessation of the spirit, you elder brothers sent a few attendants to come to express condolences.
Rong Xin knew that they were looking at her and kept them in mind.
Rong Da’s cemetery was bought next to a village called “Xili” a hundred miles away from the capital. Rong Xin heard Rong Sheng say that his father Rong Da did not know where his ancestral home was, and their household registration had already been lost. In the capital, he can be regarded as a native of the capital. For the continuation of the Rong family in the future, he also bought real estate and land in this village.
Father and son helped the spirit to pass, Rong Sheng and Rong Jing stayed there to continue to guard the spirit, Rong Yu came back to take care of the house, and it would take five days at the earliest.
Rong Xin was not in a hurry to return to the palace, or to accompany Ding to say a few words, or to tease Rong Yu and Zheng Shuyu’s daughter.
Six days later, Rong Yu rushed back to Mount Renzhao and devoured a bowl of noodles before saying to Rong Xin: “Aunt, before my father bought the cemetery, he specially asked Feng Shui master to see it. The ancestral tomb of the Rong family, my father asked me to ask you, can you enter the cemetery of the Rong family in a hundred years? When guarding the grandfather’s spirit, we will build a tomb for you in advance that matches your grade.”
Where to be buried, Rong Xin had a plan, so he said to Rong Yu: “We, the old people around the Empress, have already asked His Royal Highness the Prince to go to Zunhua to accompany the Empress.”
Rong Yu didn’t dare to refute this, but he was a little confused: “But you are the aunt of our Rong family, how can you be immune to the incense of the descendants of the Rong family…”
Rong Xin doesn’t care about the incense, but the prince will make arrangements without the incense of the Rong family, so it might as well be a matter of course in the Rong family, so he said: “The clothes and crowns, as for the grade, it is not worth publicizing, erect a monument You can.”
Rong Yu nodded, raised his head, and asked expectantly, “Can my aunt name my daughter? Years return…”
“Name.” Rong Xin nodded, “Let me think about it.”
Rong Yu was overjoyed and said, “My father wants to build the Rong family tree, and he wants to ask his aunt for instructions. What is the order of the family tree?”
A word flashed in Rong Xin’s mind, and without hesitation, he blurted out: “Benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, trustworthiness, gentleness, respectfulness, thrift and yield.”
Rong Yu recited silently in his mouth, and repeatedly praised: “This cross is very good, and it can also be used as a family motto. When I meet my father, I will report it to my father.”
Since the genealogy of the genealogy was mentioned, Rong Xin naturally asked the daughters of the Rong family to sort by the generation, and said, “How about Rong Ren’an?”
This is the name of her daughter, which is a bit ugly, but there is Rong Xin’s expectation behind it.
“I hope that the family tree of the Rong family will include my daughter, and I will add one more to the family motto. As long as the Rong family has the ability, all children must read and read wisely.” Rong Xin stared at Rong Xin closely. Yu Yu said solemnly, “It is not a discussion, but it must be so.”
“This is the reward I deserve for helping the Rong family to change the family.”
Rong Yu had no choice but to say, “Don’t worry, aunt, I will report it to my father without a word.”
Ding was still indulging in grief, and her condition only improved slightly. Two days later, Rong Xin proposed to return to the palace. She was extremely reluctant and kept crying and asked Rong Xin if she could stay longer.
Rong Xin’s attitude was quite firm, standing in front of his mother Ding’s bed, and said: “It’s human nature for you to be sad when your father passed away, but you can’t spoil your body, otherwise you will suffer It’s still Rong Sheng and his son.”
“Don’t forget, the imperial examination cannot be done during the filial piety…”
Rong Xin’s words were implying to her that if she could not get through the lingering sickness in the end, it would most likely delay Rong Yu and Rong Jing’s participation in the next spring.
For Ding, the most important thing is always her son and grandson, so before Rong Xin left, she had taken the initiative to find a doctor for treatment and medicine.
Of course Rong Yu and Rong Jing will not be able to get the same degree, but Rong Xin believes that with Ding’s physical condition, he will be able to live for a few more years.
Candidates will be disqualified due to the fraud case, and the candidates in the following positions will be replaced in turn.
Rong Jing was raised from 21st to 15th.
How happy the Rong family is, Rong Xin doesn’t know, all she knows is that the elder brother used the fraud case to loot a bunch of officials’ homes.
In the ten or so days outside the palace, she was as busy as before when she was in charge of palace affairs.
It’s not a serious illness, or it’s a daily cough. After drinking the medicine and recovering, she has to cough a few times when the wind blows and it’s dusty or too dry.
The crown prince was worried about her going out, so that in November Kangxi went to Zunhua Ye Mausoleum, and Rong Xin was not able to pay homage to Nemin.
