Chapter 58: The Peak of the Mountain (2)
Cheng Xuan had only seen the warmth of other people's homes, and he thought that he had felt it in Gu Pan, but it was only later that he ......
Thinking of this, Cheng Xuan smiled and said, "I originally thought I was pitiful, until I met Yishan, their family was the real calculation." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Imagami knew what it would bring him to give such a big false name to a baby, but he still put him on fire. This is a warm and affectionate relationship compared to our family. ”
Shen Jinyu laughed when she heard this: "People like you, even if they are miserable, they can't get our sympathy, this is pitiful." But are you planning together because of the same sickness? ”
Cheng Xuan nodded with a wry smile and said, "Because we are all outcasts today, especially now." ”
Shen Jinyu asked curiously: "Then now that you are at home, do you have any plans?" ”
Cheng Xuan said: "The wood in the mountains yesterday will end its life if it is not; Now the master's goose is not dead. Where will the gentleman be? ”
Shen Jinyu smiled: "I said it last time, do you remember?" ”
Cheng Xuan nodded and said, "If your grandfather has been doing this safely for more than twenty years, presumably such a road must be safe." The descendants of the Cheng family have always only joined the army, and the side is farming, and now we are afraid that we will also change. ”
Shen Jinyu suddenly remembered that there were very few relatives in Cheng Xuan's mansion, it stands to reason that they want more sons and more blessings, and they shouldn't be the only ones who want more than that, she asked the doubts in her heart, Cheng Xuan thought for a moment and replied: "This question is very complicated, and it starts from the Cheng family following Gaozu many years ago. ”
When he saw Shen Jinyu looking at him, he smiled and said, "Anyway, I'm free, so I'll tell you about it." ”
"Cheng's county looked at Handan, and when it was first decided to start an incident, it was unknown whether it would succeed or fail, so the ancestor decided to divide the family, and the ancestral house of the family was left to the son-in-law, and the family property was divided into two parts, and the eldest son took half of it, and the rest was divided equally among everyone. After that, the part of joining the army is all voluntary, you can get the family property, live in your hometown, or join the army. ”
"When Cheng Jiajun first became an army, he suffered a loss of grain and grass. The three armies did not move the grain and grass first, so later my grandfather discussed with the head of the Cheng family, and after the separation of the side family, he mainly engaged in farming. ”
Shen Jinyu was puzzled: "Even if you focus on farming, it is difficult to solve the problem of grain and grass in wartime?" It is difficult for farmers to hoard grain in their homes, and besides, even if they do, the sky is high and the road is far away, how can they be transported to the past? ”
Cheng Xuan nodded approvingly and said: "At that time, I only said that I wanted to farm to protect the fundamentals, but later I found that it was really difficult to hoard grain, not to mention transporting it, and it was even difficult to preserve it." ”
"So the head of the family at that time made the most important decision, it was this decision that made Gaozu feel that my Cheng family was loyal, and at the same time allowed my Cheng family's army to be guaranteed food and grass. That is, at that time, except for the sacrificial fields, all the other fields and industries were sold, and the entire village was divided into several groups, and most of them moved away. ”
Shen Jinyu suddenly said: "No wonder you King Cheng can be hereditary!" Gaozu has only laid down the country, naturally afraid of imitation by future generations, you will break up the village, which is equivalent to removing the foundation, and indeed avoid the troubles of Gaozu, so where did your people move to? But isn't the Cheng family scattered in this way? ”
Cheng Xuan said: "Basically, except for the place where King Yuexiu is located, the rest of the possible conflicts are Lingnan and Northwest, and the Cheng family moved over and changed the local surname, which can be regarded as a new life." But each family is a wine merchant, all over the northwest, so it is natural to hoard grain. It is also very convenient to transport to the battlefield, and now they are gradually developing to the Lingnan generation, and if there is a problem with food and grass on the march, we still have the last record to use. ”
Shen Jinyu was silent for a while and then asked curiously: "Then what is the meaning of the prosperity of the family, you did not glorify the lintel, but let the clansmen leave their hometowns and live incognito?" ”
Cheng Xuan smiled and didn't answer her question, but asked, "According to what you can see, my Cheng Mansion's life in Beijing can be talked about luxurious?" ”
Shen Jinyu was a little surprised, and thought about it carefully, not to mention comparing with Sang Tian or the Han family, even compared to when she was a child, she could only be regarded as passable, originally in the first year she lived here, if she and Fluttershy's clothes were according to the rules of Gongzhong, although they were not simple, they were not luxurious.
Cheng Xuan saw that she didn't answer, and said with a smile: "They moved to the northwest, the local population is sparse compared to the capital, but they are looking for a livable place, and there are few wars, even if there is a famine, the business income in our capital can ensure that the life of the clansmen is good, not inferior to my capital Cheng Mansion, or even better." Although I am not the head of the Cheng family, I also have to protect them without worrying about food and clothing. ”
"Divide the family, the son-in-law gets a reputation, but also a responsibility, I want to continue the Cheng family in the name of King Cheng, although they are uprooted from their hometown, but they live a safe life, as long as they can live a good life, what does it matter if the surname is not Cheng?"
Shen Jinyu was speechless when she heard this, feeling that he was right, and it seemed to be plausible.
She thought for a moment and asked, "Then what are your plans for the future?" ”
Cheng Xuan smiled confidently: "If you are poor, you will be good alone, and if you are good, you will help the world, now that my Cheng family is lonely, of course, it is to revive the Cheng family, the hard work of the ancestors cannot be wasted, as for the future." ”
He didn't say any more, his smile full of hope for the future and his ambition for power.
Shen Jinyu didn't ask again, Cheng Xuan has always been forbearing, she has never seen such an expression, but she also understands the attraction of the word power to Cheng Xuan.
It was getting dark, and they were ready to go down the mountain.
The mountain is not high, but Cheng Xuan is afraid that it will be too dark Shen Jinyu is not good to walk down the mountain, and several times he stretched out his hand to help her, but he failed again and again.
Cheng Xuan touched his nose awkwardly and muttered to himself, but Shen Jinyu didn't hear clearly and asked, "What did you say." ”
Cheng Xuan coughed dryly twice and said, "It's nothing to worry about, let's go down first." ”
Shen Jinyu didn't know why Cheng Xuan was suddenly embarrassed now, she stopped and asked seriously, "You can say it now." ”
Seeing her serious expression, Cheng Xuan smiled and pinched her cheek and said, "I said, your uncle robbed you too early, if it were now, I could justifiably lead you down the mountain." ”
Although Shen Jinyu has known Cheng Xuan for a long time, it is the first time that she has made such an intimate action with feelings, she opened Cheng Xuan's hand and turned around, Cheng Xuan was a little remorseful, was she too frivolous and abrupt the beauty.
When he was still annoyed, Shen Jinyu turned around, stretched out his hand to hold Cheng Xuan with a red face and said, "Uncle Shi is not too early, even today, I can lead you down the mountain." ”
Cheng Xuan's heart was touched by the feeling of being taken care of, like a seed encountering a fine spring rain and being gently watered.
On his way to Beijing, he had seen Shen Jinyu's gentle but firm refusal, mellow but cold. She used etiquette as a shield and kept a safe distance from the outside world, but today she removed her armor herself.
Like is like, don't want to refuse and welcome, don't pretentious, don't twist and pinch, this kind of Shen Jinyu really makes Cheng Xuan like it very much.
