128.Chapter 128
The news of Tian Kai's return home was reported by Xiao Zhong to Chu Hao.
After Xiao Zhong left the study, Ruan Bai was slightly surprised: "Isn't the relationship between Mr. and his family bad?" ā
Although he was surprised that after Tian Kaifu arrived in Xijing, he did not go home to live; But he thought it was an accompaniment this time, and he guessed that it was a bit exquisite. Besides, he has a lot of things to do, Tian Kaifu is not a child, it is impossible for him to stare at whether others are coming home or not.
Now that this matter actually needs Xiao Zhong to report to Chu Hao, it means that there must be something abnormal in it.
There were just the two of them in the study, and Chu Hao didn't have anything to hide from Ruan Bai: "Lao Tian likes men, you know." ā
"Hmm." The first time we met, we knew it. Don't look at Tian Kaifu's ordinary-looking appearance, but that look ...... He seduced Chu Hao at the beginning!
Chu Hao didn't quite understand why Ruan Bai's eyes became unkind, he moved his buttocks, and moved himself closer to the back of the chair without any reason, away from the increasingly ferocious Ergou, and cleared his throat before saying, "The Tian family is not as enlightened as our family. After Lao Tian knew that he liked men, he was also a little panicked, after all, this was unreasonable. ā
"Hmm." Ruan Bai himself fell in love with a man, but he didn't have an overly complicated psychological struggle. First, in his original society, the rotten culture was almost overwhelming; Second, his original profession did not pay too much attention to this aspect, and it was not easy to find a partner who was really old, where could he pay attention to what gender was not gender; Third, he picked it up for nothing in his life, and he has no parents and no children, so he doesn't have to worry about anything else at all. If you like it, you like it.
But in this relatively closed era, it is different. In fact, even in his original era, when some people realized their unique sexuality, many of them were panicked.
Lao Tian went back to tell his mother.
Ruan Bai's eyes widened slightly. He can imagine that when Tian Kaifu realized his sexuality, he must have been too old. When children encounter problems that they can't solve, it is a very natural thing to ask their parents for help. However, the final outcome must be ......
His mother couldn't accept that she had given birth to a son with an anomaly, and almost killed Lao Tian. He also committed suicide many times, but fortunately, he was found and rescued in time. For this matter, Lao Tian was almost expelled from the house, if it weren't for Lao Tian or my companion, it is estimated that Lao Tian would have been dead by now. ā
No bones? Ruan Bai couldn't believe it: "Mr. is their son-in-law after all, and he hits twice the most, can he still ......?"
"Yes. They do it. For the sake of the children who are disgraced by the family, don't do it. If you pay attention to some news, you will find that in those deep mansions, there are many violent deaths or deaths every year. Chu Hao stood up, walked to Ruan Bai, who was motionless, held his cold hand and rubbed it, "They couldn't deal with Lao Tian, so they beat Lao Tian's scholar to death in front of Lao Tian." ā
Ruan Bai hadn't experienced that personally, but of course, for a young boy, that scene was terrifying.
Especially the one who died was Tian Kaifu's scholar. In a family like theirs, a series of servants such as the scholar's servant and the servant have all grown up together. For Tian Kaifu, a teenager who has been away from home all the year round, the scholar may be closer than his family. But for a "mistake" of his own, he actually made his scholar lose his life, if his heart is a little weaker, it is possible to directly pervert and blacken.
"Then what is the gentleman going back for?" Even if he doesn't blacken, he will definitely keep his distance from such a terrible family. Could it be that now the Tian family can accept Tian Kaifu's "abnormality"?
"Oh, yes. The two of us are so married, I guess the Tian family will not treat Mr. so much, right? "In fact, Da Zhou doesn't ban men, but if you want to say how popular it is, it definitely doesn't. And there are only a very small number of men and men who are getting married.
Chu Hao shook his head: "There is probably a little bit of the impact of our marriage, but the most important thing should be Lao Tian's current status...... There is also the current status of the Tian family. ā
Relying on the foundation of the Tian family, it is amazing enough to be able to develop the family to the current situation. But the people's hearts are insufficient, especially Tian Kaifu's achievements are remarkable, but he didn't even let the Tian family touch a glass of sugar water. If Tian Kaifu is an outsider, it doesn't matter, but is Tian Kaifu an outsider? Are they willing to treat Tian Kaifu as an outsider?
On the other hand, if Tian Kaifu wants to continue to mix in the officialdom, can he really tear his face with the family? The importance of fame in these years can often directly affect a person's official career.
In the end, Chu Hao knew more about companion reading, and he speculated: "When Lao Tian goes back this time, he will probably get rid of the responsibility of the so-called eldest son and grandson, and exchange a certain amount of benefits for the distance between him and the people in the family." ā
It's almost like spending money to buy a peace. Ruan Bai figured it out, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he sighed: "This is really ......" is indescribable.
"Anyway, in the future, when the Tian family only begs Lao Tian, Lao Tian doesn't have to worry about them." Chu Hao summed up, he didn't like his daughter-in-law to pay attention to others, "Do you understand the thing you are walking in the world?" ā
"Hmm." Ruan Bai rubbed the corners of his forehead, and his mind was full of thoughts.
According to the emperor's little old man, that holy decree was a wedding ceremony for him. The name of the world sounds very big, and the official position is not small, there are four grades, or four grades. At his current age, he can be said to be the youngest four-rank official in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Walking in the world is not a title of white-collar salary, but has a certain amount of real power. According to the emperor's little old man, Feng Ruan Bai, an official position that had never been held before the Great Zhou, was determined after a series of discussions. Because when Ruan Bai was in the previous rotation, the value of the table was much more than they expected, and then there was no official position in the court that could make full use of Ruan Bai's talents, so after agreement, the scope of Ruan Bai's walking was expanded a bit, and he was encouraged to walk around, and as a benefit, he was able to bring his family.
To sum up in Ruan Bai's words, he has become the nominal director of the General Post Office, and then when he sees anything, he has the right to take care of it, and he can also directly report to the emperor 818.
But the scope of authority is so large, he doesn't know what to do at all! Zhou Da Mao didn't even reward Shang Fang's sword to him, and the stingy ghost drank cold water, hey!
Chu Hao looked at Ruan Bai and frowned, knowing that he didn't have an idea yet. This is normal, after all, even if Ruan Bai has more ideas, he is only sixteen now. And they've just gotten married, so how can they all contribute to business in a good time?
"Since it's the world walking, you might as well walk more and see more." Chu Hao seemed to casually mention yƬ, "It just so happens that we are all free during this time, why don't you take you for a walk around?" ā
Ruan Bai agreed: "Okay." "There is no talk of honeymoon this year, but there is still a wedding holiday. Everyone had the ambition to take over their work together, and for a few days the two of them had almost nothing else to do except roll the sheets, and there would be a big fight even when they entered the study......
Although the days of no shame and impatience are also very high, but as a teenager, is it really good to be so decadent? Well, he actually felt a little stuffy.
The result of sufficient manpower is that they only need Chu Hao to explain, and they don't have to do it at all, and someone will prepare something for them immediately.
There was only one rattan box in total, two clothes and two books in it, and a little loose change. There are daily miscellaneous items on the car, and then stuff the two dogs into the carriage, without anyone else following, Chu Hao directly acted as a groom and drove the carriage out of the palace.
The front and rear of the carriage are added to the left and right, and the windows and doors can be opened on all five sides, and Chu Hao did it in front, which did not hinder the communication between the two people. As soon as the carriage left Xijing City, Ruan Bai opened the door in front of him. The weather is not cold now, Ruan Bai sat on his stomach in the carriage, stretching out his fingers to poke and poke at Chu Hao's back.
Chu Hao slapped him lightly with his backhand: "Sit down, it's upside down for a while." With that, the carriage left the official road and turned onto a path up the mountain.
"Where are we going?" He originally thought it was in the suburbs, but he didn't expect to be walking for most of the day. I found a small town to eat for lunch, and the taste was ordinary.
"There's one of our Zhuangzi in front, take you to see it." is married, and he is also a person with a wife. In the future, all the housework at home can be handed over to Mrs. ~
The west is mountainous, and after half a day out of Xijing City, Ruan Bai has already seen the outline of the black and swarthy mountain with different heights. Some slopes can now be seen in the surrounding area, and the carriage is moving more and more into the mountains.
Ruan Bai felt a little strange: "How did you think of buying Zhuangzi in such a place?" "He is quite good at saving small coffers, but he didn't expect to buy Zhuangzi in this kind of corner. With Chu Hao's status and vision, he must not have been deceived, and Da Zhou has no crops adapted to the mountains, so he will buy Zhuangzi in the mountains, what is the special reason?
Chu Hao seemed to have sold the guanzi, but he didn't say: "You'll know when you arrive." ā
Ruan Bai was a little tired after sitting in the carriage for a long time, so he simply sat down next to Chu Hao and leaned on him: "How long will it take to arrive?" ā
Chu Hao was a little cold sweat by his series of actions, this road is not as good as being on the official road, let alone in the city, even if you are in the carriage, you can turn people upside down, Ruan Bai looks like this, he will fall down if he is unlucky, and he hugged him tightly and patted it first: "It is not allowed to be like this in the future!" It will probably take another hour. ā
The carriage was bumpy, and Ruan Bai looked around: "Is it expensive to build roads?" ā
In fact, this road now, aside from the official road, can be regarded as the best he has ever seen. Many mountain roads are simply stepped on by people, and this one can run a horse-drawn carriage.
"Expensive!" Chu Hao replied categorically, "I still built this road." It didn't cost much to buy the Zhuangzi back then, but I built the road, and in the end I spent enough money to buy two Zhuangzi. Now I have to hire someone to maintain it every year. "He was only a few years old at the time, and he didn't have much money at all; But if you don't let him buy it, then he won't do it.
"If it's so expensive, why do you have to build it so wide? Anyone can walk, but can you just ride a horse? "Isn't that what everybody does?
"No, it's so narrow, it can't carry goods at all."
Goods? A Zhuangzi in the mountains, what goods can be worth spending so much money?
