Chapter 686, the Rootless Man!
Chapter 686, the Rootless Man!
Not tall and thin, not fairy-like, not gloomy and cold or majestic---- his figure was a little chubby, his skin was a little dark, and his smile was a little wanton and lewd.
Very ordinary old people, exactly like those old people seen in the fields of the village.
However, this old man is not ordinary at all.
Will be blessed!
The grandfather of the general's order, the helmsman of one of Yanjing's largest wealthy families.
The wisdom of the ancients coined the words 'rich rival country'.
We often use words like 'rich to rival the country' to describe a person's wealth, but most of the time it is actually a 'praise' for that person. Because most people's wealth cannot be defeated, it is also extremely rare in the entire human world to be truly able to defeat the country---- and the Jiangjia belongs to one of them.
In "Dream of Red Mansions", in order to describe the wealth of the three major families, he also made up a few sentences like this: Jia is not fake, Baiyu is a horse for Tang Jin, Afang Palace is 300 miles, and he can't live in Jinling. The East China Sea lacked a white jade bed dragon king to invite the king of Jinling----
The generals did not use white jade as a hall and gold as horses, they couldn't do such a vulgar thing. However, the wealth of the Jiang family is far from being comparable to the three families of Jia, Shi and Wang.
No one in the outside world knows how much wealth the Jiang family has. I'm afraid that the 'wolf king' of the Jiangjia family doesn't know, right?
"That's a good feeling. The gentleman smiled and said, "I haven't eaten your leek dumplings for some years." ”
"That's because you, a distinguished guest, don't come to the door easily. Jiang Xifu said with a smile: "What do you say there is to guard in Yanziwu? So a group of high-ranking strongmen are here, who can still bully them? Do you have to let you stay there like an old hen guarding the cubs? I said you, when you are fine, you also go out for a walk, run more to Yanjing City---- you are gone?"
"Am I not here?" said the gentleman with a smile. "An old friend is an old friend, whether you come or not, if you can't see it, you still be a friend. ”
When Jiang Xifu and Mr. were talking, they had already walked out of the vegetable patch with a basket.
He handed the basket in his hand to the tigress and said, "Take the vegetables and wash them, then put a few more eggs and fry them together, chop the filling to pieces, put more sesame oil---- and I'll make noodles in a while." ”
The tigress left with the basket and cleaned her hands at the faucet in the corner of the yard.
The gentleman pointed at Fang Yan and said, "Fang Yan." ”
"Oh. There were waves rolling in Jiang Xifu's eyes, and peace was restored in an instant. He looked at Fang Yan with interest and said, "Let's eat dumplings together for a while, young people can eat a few more bowls-----"
Fang Yan smiled and said, "I will work hard." ”
Fang Yan didn't expect that he would come to Jiang's house to eat dumplings, and he didn't expect that Jiang's dumplings were quite delicious.
The tigress fried the dumpling filling, and rolled the blessing and dough into the dumpling skin. Not soft or hard, moderately thin and thick. As soon as you bite into it, your mouth is full of oil, and the green breath of leeks and the aroma of eggs are completely integrated, which is more delicious than the star chefs outside.
The gentleman ate a small bowl, and he also ate a small bowl of Xifu.
After the two of them ate the dumplings, they each took a bowl of dumpling soup and drank it in small sips.
Fang Yan ate three bowls in a row, and when he ate the second bowl, he felt almost full. The tigress asked him to eat another bowl, and he thought it would be okay to eat another bowl.
Mr. dared to eat it, and he was not worried about the poison in this dumpling.
Jiang Xifu looked at Fang Yan with a smile and said, "It's good to be young." When I was younger, I could eat five bowls---- but it wasn't like that, it was a big bowl bigger than that. Every bowl is sharp, and that bowl has to be filled with dozens of dumplings, right? Dip it in chili oil and mix it, and then drink the soup after eating the dumplings. ”
Mr. glanced at Jiang Xifu and said: "It's like how much you suffered and how tired you were when you were young, when I met you, you were still a playboy brother----- you ate dumplings with chili oil because you were tired of eating delicacies from the mountains and seas to improve your taste." Your ancestors have a foundation, and you can't squander it in ten lifetimes. You can't fool me about this kind of thing. ”
Jiang Xifu laughed and said, "It's strange to say. Our family has been a general, and we have also been a great Hanlin, but we have never been a peasant---- but I still like the life in this countryside. I like to plant some flowers and plants, plant some fruits and vegetables, make dumplings and eat them by myself---- and step on the dirt with my feet, which makes people feel steady. ”
"Your heart is steady, but other people's hearts are not steady. The gentleman said with a sigh.
"Alas, it's all children's business----" said Jiang Xifu. "Is it worth taking out of your mouth?"
"It's really a kids' thing. The gentleman said. "Children's things don't have to be small. At least, I'm quite passive. ”
The gentleman held the bowl with one hand, pointed at Fang Yan with the other, and said, "Look, everyone has come to the door, can you do it without giving an explanation?"
"Then give him an explanation. Jiang Xifu said.
He drank most of the bowl of noodle soup in one gulp, then put the big bowl on the stone table, beckoned to Fang Yan, and shouted, "Young man, come here." ”
Fang Yan hurriedly stuffed the last dumpling in the bowl into his mouth, threw the rice bowl aside and walked over to the two old men.
Jiang Xifu looked at Fang Yan and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten enough?"
"I'm full. Fang Yan chewed the dumpling in his mouth and swallowed it quickly.
"It's good to be full. Jiang Xifu said. "You're visiting my house for the first time, and if nothing else, you'll have to be fed up for dinner. Now that we're full, let's get down to business. ”
Fang Yan knew that the main topic was coming, so he didn't answer, waiting for Xifu to continue.
Jiang Xifu looked at Fang Yan and said, "Long Qianxiang said, you came to the door, I have to give you an explanation---- what do you want?"
"My father died tragically, Huacheng is in distress, I want justice. Fang Yan Zhengse said.
"Well, it's all made by that kid in our family?"
"That's true. Fang Yan said. He was afraid that he would be fooled and did not want to admit the disgusting things his grandson had done. In his heart, his family can do anything. Not to mention such a small thing as lying. "I think many people can testify to this matter----
"It's not about doubting your character. I have also heard some ----- about what that kid did" Jiang Xifu smiled and waved his hand, and said: "If the general orders back, it will naturally be to dispose of the general's family." But you also know that since the general ordered him to go to Huacheng, he has never returned---- so how can I give you an explanation?"
"So, is the Jiang family ready to deny it to the end?" Fang Yan said with a sneer. He knew that things would not be so easy to solve, and now the family really began to quibble.
After the failure of the encirclement and suppression at the top of the First Sword Peak, the general's order did disappear without a trace. Of course, his disappearance is aimed at outsiders like Fang Yan, if even the generals themselves or the old man will not know the whereabouts of the general's order, this is to fool people as idiots.
Is Fang Yan an idiot? Fang Yan will only eat for nothing.
"Don't be impulsive. Don't be impulsive. Seeing the anger on Fang Yan's face, Jiang Xifu comforted and said: "Young people are angry---- I can understand your feelings, but the truth is true." I know, I'm telling you that I haven't seen a general's order, and you won't believe it. However, I really haven't seen it, let me drag him out and cut him down, I really can't do it---- but the family is to be faced, and we won't do that kind of thing that goes unpunished for wrongdoing. ”
Jiang Xifu thought for a while, looked at Fang Yan and said: "I can't find the person, if you can find it, I will let you deal with it--- but the Jiang family also has to express a position on this matter." Well, I'll expel that bastard boy from the Jiang family and remove him from the Jiang family's family tree, what do you think of this punishment?"
“-----”
Expelling the general's order from the general's family and removing the general's family from the genealogy of the general's family is not a serious punishment.
If the general order is no longer the general's family, then he will no longer be able to use the resources of the general's family and become a wild dog without power.
If the general order is removed from the family tree, then he will not be able to enter the ancestral hall and tomb of the general family after his death.
That is to say, after the general's order, there will be no father, no mother, no relatives, no ancestors, and he will become a rootless person.
Thinking that there would be no 'roots' in the future of the general's order, Fang Yan's heart was still dark.
However, this kind of punishment is not of much significance to Fang Yan.
The general's family can expel the general's order from the family tree, then they can also recruit him back---- even if the general's order is no longer returned, the general's order is no longer the general's family?
At that time, there was no identity restriction, and there was a general order secretly supported by the resources of the general's family, wouldn't it be more like a fish in water to do more things?
However, Fang Yan still has no way to refute Jiang Xifu's proposal---- when he can't find the general's order, people have already given such a lot of sincerity, what are you not satisfied with?"
Fang Yan pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Isn't that a way to prevent the Jiang family from reuniting?"
"I can't blame others. Jiang Xifu looked at Fang Yan with a smile on his face, and said pointedly: "Everyone should pay for the stupid things they have done, what does Fang Xiaoyou think?"
"Yes. Fang Yan pretended not to hear the deep meaning of his words, and said with a serious face: "The general's order will definitely die." ”
Leaving Jiang's house, Mr. looked back at the closed wooden door of Jiangjia, sighed softly and said, "Jiangjia has murderous intentions against you." ”
