Chapter 128 Dong E 1 Family
Yinreng was so anxious at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, while Hezhun Yierha felt like a fish in water at her own small family banquet.
Fu Cha Qina, as expected of a descendant of Shaji Fu Cha clan, is very fertile.
She married Peng Chun at the age of sixteen. Now she is thirty-six years old and has five sons and one daughter.
The eldest son Zengshou, who is seventeen years old this year, has been appointed to a vacancy in the Imperial Guard Department. He is tall and is about 1.85 meters tall.
The second and third legitimate sons were twins, Erdenbu and Erhe, fourteen years old. The two brothers looked very similar.
The only one who can be distinguished is the second son, Erdenbu, who likes to read and wear elegant plain clothes.
Erhe is a man with a disabled body but a strong will. He is less than five feet tall, but he firmly worships his father. It is unknown how advanced his martial arts are, but his skin is a solid wheat color.
Folgon, the fourth legitimate son, but actually the fifth son, loved freedom by nature and had very positive ideas.
Although he is only ten years old, he went to study in a private school in the Jiangnan area five years ago. He likes to travel around in his spare time. It was Fu Cha who forced him to come home for the Mid-Autumn Festival reunion this year and bombarded him with letters every day.
The youngest son, Feng, was born at the age of eight, only two years older than Hejun Yierha. He did not inherit too many genes from his parents, and just like his name, it was probably just a lucky addition.
But Tiantou probably also understands how he should survive, so Fengsheng is the sweetest one in the family.
Peng Chun had no concubines, but only several concubines. It was only during the years when Fu Cha was pregnant with twins that Peng Chun neglected to give birth to a boy.
The fourth child, twelve years old, was named Achuhun, which literally means that he hoped the child could get along well with everyone in the family.
His mother was not promoted because of giving birth to a son. After all, the Dong E family really did not lack sons.
Fucha treated that princess with thunderous methods as a mistress, but never treated Achuhun harshly. She only strictly distinguished between legitimate and illegitimate children in terms of rules.
There is not much significance in distinguishing between legitimate and illegitimate daughters; it is more about favoritism and so-called dignity.
But my son is different.
Whether the Qing Dynasty entered the Pass or not, sons were related to tribal inheritance. The so-called not caring about the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children was simply because in the past on the grasslands, if a family had one male alive, it meant there was an extra possibility of continuation.
Otherwise, after entering the Pass, when those princes asked to be named Crown Prince, why didn't they look for a son born to a princess, but had to look for a son born to a wife, or at least a son born to a concubine?
The more peaceful the world is, the narrower the path to military merit that transcends class becomes. The so-called "legitimate and illegitimate" distinction will gradually become history, just like the cycle that occurs in every dynasty.
People have always been able to weigh the pros and cons. When external threats are gone, they will naturally consider internal struggles.
Since the eldest wife could give birth, the family would naturally not be involved in the issue of "the mistress's jealousy leading to the loss of offspring", so there was no bad reputation of the Fucha family among the nobles in the city.
What legitimate wife could give birth to five healthy sons like this? Wouldn't she provide for them and treat them well?
After all, concubines and princesses are not considered presentable, so what difference does it make whether they give birth or not?
The social situation where a mother is honored by her son has laid a solid foundation for the stability of Fucha's position as the mistress of the family, and there is no "old lady or ancestor" in the family who does not envy Peng Chun for having such an excellent legitimate wife.
……
He Junyi'erha looked at the family sitting at the table and thought about something far-reaching.
The family was led by the youngest boy, Fengsheng, who talked about the interesting things he had experienced in school. His brothers then made associations or reminisced, and the atmosphere was very lively for a while.
Even the illegitimate son Achuhun smiled sincerely in this happy atmosphere.
Born in the Dong E family, he was allowed to go to school, and was arranged to be taught by a formal martial arts master, and a plan was made for the imperial examination.
People are all made of flesh and blood. With proper innate education and cooperation from the family, good children can be raised even if they are not biological children or even if there are deliberate differences in treatment and status.
Her parenting experience in her previous two lives taught her this truth.
Raising a child is far more important than giving birth.
The happy Dong'e family run by Fu Cha satisfied the greatest fantasy of men of that era.
He had three or two beautiful concubines, and they lived together with his wife until old age, respected each other like guests, and had many children and grandchildren.
A smart woman, no matter what era she is in, will always make herself feel most comfortable and get the best treatment.
Such a Fu Cha made He Zhun Yierha admire and feel proud.
After all, that was her mother in this life.
A son is honored by his mother, and Fucha's upbringing is the innate business card written on her and Zhun Yierha's faces.
The family sat together, looking at the moon outside, some drank, and some ate mooncakes.
It was at this time that He Junyi Erha spoke up.
"Speaking of which, since we are talking about careers, why not listen to the first-hand information I brought from the palace?"
Zengshou knew his sister's true ability. He was on duty in the palace and was responsible for picking up and dropping off Jun Yierha and Zhun Yierha from the palace. Every time he returned home, he had seen the gifts prepared by the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother.
So he nodded immediately and said,
"Okay, sister, please tell me quickly."
Seeing their eldest brother speak, and seeing Peng Chun suddenly change from his drunken state of looking at the sword by lamplight to sitting upright, the other boys subconsciously focused their attention.
"The Russian bandits have become increasingly rampant in recent days, and war is imminent.
After the New Year, I'm afraid that His Majesty will have to organize the army again and launch a thundering attack on Tsarist Russia.
Ama will be among them, but my idea is that as Fourth Brother moves forward, you should all take this opportunity to do your best.
It will not be so easy to get military merits in the future. Only those who are not afraid of death in Mongolia will make some noise. "
Achuhui thought about his age, but felt a little confused. He asked,
"But little sister, at my age and with my limited knowledge, what can I do?"
"We have done a lot. The Qing Dynasty was able to enter the country. We need to be more free and bold in our thinking."
The key words "and Jun Yi Er Ha" aroused the interest of the whole family. She continued to preach.
"Starting a war is just the beginning.
The supply and transportation of food and fodder during war is a science.
When two armies are at war, intelligence and how to use troops are a test of vision and strategy.
How to deal with the aftermath of the war, how to agree on the future master-servant relationship between the two countries... and so on.
These are all opportunities.”
He Zhun Yilha's speech really opened the minds of these young people, and even the younger Folgon's eyes lit up.
"So, my second and fourth brothers, who are already good at studying, you can definitely learn Russian and Latin, right?
Or, take advantage of this opportunity to carefully study the geography and history of Tsarist Russia. Marching and fighting are all about swords and sabers, but the key to victory or defeat is often hidden in history books. "
