Fierce “Husband”

In the Wei family of the Marquis of Hengyuan, also after the New Year's Eve dinner, Wei Hongru, the direct son of Marquis Hengyuan, and the second son Wei Hongwen were talking in the study room. Marquis Hengyuan is a hereditary title. Although Wei Hongru is a direct son, Marquis Hengyuan has a large number of wives and concubines, and there are many children, including four elder brothers. The Marquis of Hengyuan has not yet presented the emperor's invitation to seal the prince, Wei Hongru - Tian is not the prince, and his position will be unstable one day. Wei Hongwen and Wei Hongru are the brothers of the milk compatriots. Wei Hongwen is very business savvy, and he has done a good job in the business entrusted to him by the Marquis of Hengyuan, much better than other brothers. But the business of Hengyuan Hou's Mansion is not solely controlled by Wei Hongwen, and he is only a part of the business of Hengyuan Hou's Mansion.

Wei Hongwen needs to win the business of Hengyuan Hou's mansion to help his elder brother win the throne, and Wei Hongru also needs to rely on Wei Hongwen's ability and his status in the Hou's mansion to help him. Since the two shopkeepers in Yongxiu County discovered the strange man, Wei Hongwen's business has expanded, especially the set of "Jadeite Stone" pendants of string beans, Wei Hongwen has privately ordered someone to engrave them according to them. A large number of pendants will only be launched in response to this year's imperial examinations.

And the jam he got through the strange man and following the man's advice, the chrysanthemum tea with a small amount of chrysanthemum tea was so-called "repackaged" and then took the "high-end route", plus the rare and precious gold wire Huang Ju, not only made him a lot of money, but also earned a lot of fame and attention, so he was also praised by the father of the patriarch. Originally Wei Hongwen was very happy, but now he is not happy anymore.

The benefits he got from the strange man now seem to be just petty troubles, but the real big head has not fallen on him at all. They directly climbed up to Jiang Kangning, the adopted son of Weng Lao, and Jiang Kangning successfully led the way. Catch up with the old man, the emperor and the queen. Now the business of tea and wine is in the hands of the queen, not to mention that he is a second son who has no power in the Hengyuan Houfu. How can Wei Hongwen not be angry, Wei Hongru is also quite annoyed.

Wei Hongru also has the business of the Hou Mansion in charge, but his main energy is in the court, and he is in charge of a lot of business - part of it is the part that is in the hands of his mother, and the business of the Hou Mansion is mostly concentrated around the capital. He called his younger brother to the study because of the new tea and goat milk wine that has been making a lot of noise in the capital recently and the recent big trends in the capital.

Wei Hongru asked his brother, "What are your plans?"

Wei Hongwen said with a sullen face: "As soon as the new tea and new wine came out, the tea and wine in my hands were scarce. Now people in the whole capital are staring at the new tea and new wine, and it will not be long before all the prefectures will know about it. Once the amount of tea and wine in the hands of the queen can keep up, our loss of tea and wine business is small, and I am more worried about those gangsters taking advantage of this to make trouble. Wei Hongzheng is still running on me in front of his father today. ."

Wei Hongru said coldly: "Isn't what he expects most is that you and I are wrong?"

Wei Hongwen said angrily: "Wei Xiu is too short-sighted, he underestimated the farmer. When the golden daisy came out, he should have visited him in person to get closer to the farmer, but he just asked Xu Jin to come forward, otherwise he would not It will let Jiang Kangning take advantage of the loopholes. With Lao Weng behind Jiang Kangning, is my Hengyuan Houfu bad? The Jiang family has long since fallen. If there is no Weng Lao, what would Jiang Kangning and Jiang Kangchen be? If not Wei Xiu is too arrogant, and we won't lose the opportunity. Now that the emperor and the queen are intervening, it is very difficult for us to share a piece of the pie."

Wei Hongru said: "The emperor is short of money, and the court is even short of money. Now there is such a big-money business, the emperor will never let go. I just don't know when the emperor is going to let the Ministry of Household intervene, and now I don't know how many people are staring at this fat man. Poor." After pondering for a moment, he said: "This is the end of the matter, even if you kill Wei Xiu, it will not help. You might as well go to Xiushui Village in person after the year. Although the emperor and the queen have intervened, I, the Marquis of Hengyuan, are right. That farmer is also kind, although this kind is a little small, but it still has to be used when it should be used.

You are the second son of the Marquis of Hengyuan, and you came forward in person. That farmer is just a strange farmer, and he doesn't dare to refute your self-esteem. Hengyuan Houfu does not compete with the emperor for profit, but you must get some tea and wine. As long as you do it well, you can not only stabilize your position in the manor, but the most important thing is that you can be involved with the queen. Since there is such an opportunity, we must seize it. If you can get the support of the Queen, the Marquis of Hengyuan will not fall into the hands of others.

Now that the queen is looking straight at the farmer, Xu Jin's status is now low, but his friendship with the farmer needs to be put to good use. In my opinion, after the third year of junior high school, you can go to Xiushui Village. According to your identity as the second son of the Marquis of Hengyuan, you will visit in person. Jiang Kangchen has now become the confidant of the queen, and I think the emperor also intends to cultivate him into a royal merchant. Jiang Kangning is also the magistrate of Yongxiu County. His two brothers can be said to be at the right time and place. After you go, you should try your best to befriend Jiang Kangning. "

Wei Hongwen nodded: "Jiang Kangning is still somewhat capable, and it is best to use it for us. As for the farmer, his temperament is a bit tough, but he is only a mud-legged person. Even if Jiang Kangning is a backer, It's not as good as our Hengyuan Hou's Mansion. It's like a tiger with you. The queen has never come out, and his body is not tough enough. If he is smart, he will definitely not refuse me. Maybe Jiang Kangning relies on this tea and wine. The identity of the county magistrate was snatched away."

Wei Hongru shook his head and said: "Isn't it that Jiang Kangning recognized the farmer's husband and wife as his righteous brothers? Although the Jiang family has collapsed, Jiang Kangning is now only a county magistrate, but he has Taishi Weng behind him, so we can see that The farmer is not a fool. You must remember to be more courteous after you go there. If you need him the next day, you will be courteous to him one day."

"I know."

Wei Hongwen did not expect that a small farmer would bring him such a big trouble. Whether it is the jade pendant of green beans, or jam, chrysanthemum tea, golden silk chrysanthemum, because the number is limited, although Wei Hongwen has the intention to expand his business, he does not take Shao Yunan too seriously. It also arranged for people to study the production methods of jam and chrysanthemum tea. As for the golden silk imperial chrysanthemum, as long as I get the seeds for him, are you afraid that he will be short of it in the future? To him, Shao Yun'an was at best a peasant man who was a little smart and a little learned. Then Shao Yunan is only sixteen years old, and he is still a husband and wife, so what amazing things can he do?

Xu and Zeng's subordinates are willing to treat Shao Yunan with courtesy, and they are not stingy when they give money each time, so Shao Yunan must be wise. Besides, it is also his good fortune and blessing to be able to have a relationship with his Hengyuan Hou Mansion, and to be able to do business with Hengyuan Hou Mansion. But Wei Hongwen never thought that he would be wrong. The farmer was smarter than he thought.

Wei Hongwen couldn't get a cup of tea and wine directly from the queen, so he could only find a way from Shao Yunan. Although Wei Xiu is the big shopkeeper in charge of all the business of the Nanfu Palace. But now that Wei Xiu is sent, his identity is not enough, so this trip must have Wei Hongwen himself.

When he decided to hand over the tea and wine to Jiang Kangning, Shao Yunan thought that there would definitely be a reaction from Manager Xu. Shopkeeper Xu didn't look for him a few years ago, I'm afraid the news hasn't spread so quickly, but shopkeeper Xu will definitely come to him after the year. Shopkeeper Xu didn't even want to let go of the Roujiamo and Chuanchuanxiang businesses, so how could he let go of such a lucrative tea and wine business.

But Shao Yunan didn't feel guilty at all. To put it bluntly, the business is his, and he can do it for whomever he wants. He has no direct business relationship with Shopkeeper Xu, or the big boss behind Shopkeeper Xu. He hadn't even seen each other's face, so why should he ask them to do any business he had. As he said, he didn't know the big owner of Hengyuan Hou's mansion, he only knew Jiang Kangning. The shopkeeper Zeng bought the jade green beans, which seemed to cost a lot of money, but in fact they made a higher profit. Jiang Kangning's kindness to him and Wang Shijing is real. Now that he recognized Jiang Kangning as his righteous brother, there was no reason to turn his elbows out.

Chinese New Year is all about eating and drinking. Old Cen and Mrs. Cen are getting old. Without Shou Sui, the others almost stayed up all night, even Jiang Moxi refused to sleep, which surprised Jiang Kangchen and Jiang Kangning. When the Chinese New Year came, Shao Yunan cooked a large pot of cabbage and pork dumplings. The three children should be willing to go to sleep after eating dumplings.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, the Wang residence was quiet. Wang Shijing slept peacefully with his arms around Shao Yunan; Jiang Kangchen slept relaxedly with his son in his arms; Jiang Kangning slept sweetly with his outlook on the future; Wang Qing and Nizi slept soundly in their respective beds, perhaps eating in their dreams what a treat. Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu had already woken up.

Last night, Jiang Kangning told Guo Ziyu that his and his younger brother's household registration had been converted into slave registration, and that the household registration of the two was in his hands. Today, the two brothers are going to sign a deed of betrayal with the Wang family. After three years, they will be converted from slaves to good people and become villagers of Xiushui Village. Yang Tianwei died and Rong Yue was demoted. This really answers the sentence: "Good will be rewarded with good, and evil will be rewarded with evil. It's not that there is no reward, the time has not yet come]!

But if the two of his brothers hadn't met Shao Yunan, how would they know all this, and how could they really stay away from that sad place.

Guo Zimu cried very sadly. He always believed that the great changes in his family were caused by him. Guo Ziyu kept comforting him. Now, the two of his brothers have settled down. For the great kindness of Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing, the two of them could not repay them. They could only do things for Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing wholeheartedly, and let their husband and wife send them.

After Lao Cen and Mrs. Cen got up, they went to the kitchen to see what to eat, knowing that everyone must be sleeping. But he didn't think that Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu were in the kitchen. Seeing the eyes of the two brothers who had clearly cried, Old Cen was relieved. After Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu came over with breakfast and sat down, Cen said, "You two can settle down at An Ge'er. An Ge'er is a casual person, and Ishii doesn't have so many rules. I really need a neat person to help them with the housekeeping. After three years, Ziyu, if you want to continue your scientific research, feel free to come to the old man. Zimu doesn't have to hide his face. Nanfu, no one can trouble you."

"Thank you, Elder Cen."

Guo Zimu's eyes turned red again, and he lowered his head. Mrs. Cen said gently: "Yun An and the others are afraid to get up very late. Let's have dinner first."

Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu respectfully served Old Cen and Madam Cen with porridge.

If you don't cook on the first day of the new year, you have to eat what's left over from the previous day. The breakfast is the red bean porridge that Shao Yunan cooked in advance the night before. It has a unique flavor when served with bread and kimchi.

It was noon when the others woke up. It was still raining, and no one went out, just inside the house. Shao Yunan took out a wooden mahjong and three wooden dice. He first asked his three children—mainly Wang Qing and Nizi—how to play dice, and then let them play by themselves. The money for gambling was the candy they were given.

Adults, just play mahjong. There is no such game as Mahjong at this time. Shao Yunan said that after repeating the rules, he directly brought Old Cen, Jiang Kangning and Jiang Kangchen to the table, while others watched. The betting money is spiced peanuts.

Faced with this novelty, everyone's interest is high. Shao Yunan also specially reminded Jiang Kangchen that mahjong is very suitable for attracting feelings, and this card friend, after playing cards for a long time, will naturally become friends. Jiang Kangchen became a lot more serious after hearing this, saying that he must learn mahjong.

The freezing rain was falling outside the house, but the house was full of warmth, especially Old Cen's voice was the loudest. Shao Yunan was stunned. One is the dean of the college with a high reputation and a former fourth-rank scholar; one is the magistrate of the county, the proud disciple of the emperor, and the genius champion. Don't you know that you have no regrets when you play cards!

"Put it down, I want this card!" Shao Yunan quickly went to grab a piece of seven cakes that Lao Cen had just played.

"I don't show this!" Elder Cen quickly drew it back and looked at his card tangled.

"You have already typed it and put it down! You can't go back!"

"No, no, let me think about it. I haven't figured it out yet, it doesn't count."

Wang Shijing stretched out his hand to block Shao Yunan's card. Jiang Kangning, who was looking into it, calmly retracted his head, and said, "What are the rules of this Hu card? Yunan, please say it again."

Jiang Kangchen resisted the desire to peek at his younger brother's cards, but he didn't have time to pay attention to his son after thinking about how to play the cards. Guo Ziyu, Guo Zimu, and Mrs. Cen were onlookers laughing non-stop. How could this young and old play mahjong and even use it?

On the other side of the three children, Wang Qing and Nizi wanted to cry but had no tears. Wow, I saw Jiang Moxi was holding a precious mechanical bird in his left hand, and his right hand was as skilled as an old man shaking the dice cup.

Snapped!

Buckle down the dice, Jiang Moxi opened it, three dice, one with four, one with five, and one with six. Jiang Moxi's dull face was still dull, but his eyes had some shining light.

Nizi counted with her fingers tremblingly on the floor. After four plus five plus six was calculated, she swallowed and picked up her dice cup and dice. Brother Xi has fifteen o'clock, so it's hard to beat him. Woo - she's running out of candy.
