The Lan family is planning here, the Yan family, and Yan Shupeng are talking to their father Yan Yi. Yan Yi said: "What you told me before about Lord Wenhui recruiting you. I wasn't convinced at first. Just think it's you talking big. What kind of character is Lord Wen Hui, how could he fall in love with such a small gesture as you? In the past two days, I have been in contact with Lord Zhao, the husband of the county lord of Wenhui, and I mentioned this matter euphemistically, and the result is really the same as what you said. ”

Yan Shupeng couldn't help but smile slightly. However, in front of his father, he didn't dare to put pride on his face.

Yan Yi continued: "It seems that it is your creation that has arrived. In the past, I always thought you were too stubborn and refused to study as hard as your eldest brother. Besides, you are the second son, and you don't have to inherit the family business like your eldest brother, and the responsibility is heavy, so it comes with your temperament. If you like miscellaneous learning, I'll let you do it. Where did you think that these miscellaneous studies have now become your way to promotion? ”

Yan Shupeng couldn't help but say: "Father, there is nothing wrong with miscellaneous learning, and economic learning is also conducive to the national economy and people's livelihood, and the child thinks that it is no worse than the words of a sage." ”

Yan Yi said with a straight face: "Don't talk nonsense." In the future, if you really want to follow the county lord, don't talk nonsense like this anymore. You must know that in the future, if you follow the county lord, if you go to the capital, you will face the close ministers of the Son of Heaven, or the most powerful family in Dachu. Even entering the palace to meet the emperor, the crown prince is very likely. How can you be so indecent? ”

Yan Shupeng is in a daze, and what his father said is very true. Since ancient times, a companion is like a tiger, and you can't be careless.

Yan Yi watched his son be taught and said: "Even if you don't go to the capital, you go to the northwest." That's also to face people from all walks of life, and most of them are people in the officialdom, so you have to be more cautious and careful. ”

Yan Shupeng hurriedly stood up and answered respectfully.

Yan Yi nodded and said, "Since you are going to go, you should reply to the princess and his wife as soon as possible." That's it, I'll post tomorrow and personally invite Lord Wenhui to dinner, and we, as parents, want to express our gratitude. You should also go back today and consult with your wife to see how to go. What about your property in Qingyang City? Do you go first, and then move in a few years? Or go together. ”

Yan Shupeng hurriedly said: "We don't have any property, just some dowry shops and fields of the Wen family. None of this needs to be moved. Anyway, it's all running well. It's just a matter of collecting rent every year. It's some small business that we have done, and if we go, we can end it first. Wen said that if I left, she would stay behind to serve her father and mother. ”

Yan Yi waved his hand and said, "We are not old yet. No need for her to stay. Besides. We have your eldest brother's family by our side. And your brothers and sisters. If she can get out of the way, she'd better go with you. Wen is very virtuous, and she takes care of you. We are also reassured. That's what your mother meant. ”

As soon as he said this, Yan Shupeng was very happy and said, "Then follow the arrangement of my father and mother." ”

Yan Yi said: "Okay, you go back first, I want to post to the county lord and his wife." You husbands and wives also have much to discuss. Also, your business was dealt with as early as possible. By the way, in-laws, it's better for you to go and talk about it with Wen. ”

Yan Shupeng hurriedly responded.

Coming out of his father's study, Yan Shupeng only felt full of energy, and his future was bright.

Walked briskly back to his small courtyard, and as soon as he entered the door, his wife Wen had already greeted him, and asked with a concerned face: "What did my father say?" ”

Yan Shupeng hurriedly told his father Yan Yi what he said to his wife. Wen was overjoyed. So soon the husband will be able to have an official position. Or follow Lord Wenhui, what a good opportunity. No wonder when he was in his mother's house, his father thought that his husband was a talent. Sure enough, let her wait for the day when her husband will soar.

Not to mention, the father-in-law actually agreed to let him go to the northwest with his husband. That's a great thing. In the Yan family, although her mother-in-law treats her well. But she is the second daughter-in-law, and she is from a businessman's background, and some of the concubines despise her, and there are also those who oppose her. There is a mother-in-law above, a sister-in-law pressing, and a group of concubines watching below, and life is really uncomfortable. If you can follow your husband to other places, then you can be the master of the house and live a comfortable life, which is desirable to think about.

Wen said: "My father is right. Why don't we go back to my mother's house in the evening and talk to my mother's house. Also, our family's business is not easy to sell when we are eager, but my second cousin once envied our family's small business, so it would be better for us to ask him if he would accept it, and it would be good if he could give it to him. Also, tomorrow you and your father will have a banquet for the princess and his wife, and I will still pack up my things at home and see our servants, those who are to keep the house, and which ones are to go with us. Those who stay are also responsible for collecting rent from us, and they also have to make a charter. There are a lot of things going on, where is the time to go back to my parents' house, or tonight is a free time. ”

Yan Shupeng thought about it too. For a long time, everything at home was arranged by his wife. His wife was born in a businessman, and she has a lot of business talent, and she cooks the family well. Therefore, Yan Shupeng has a lot of respect for his wife. After listening to his wife's words, he hurriedly said, "Then so be it." I'll go talk to my father and mother, you get ready, and we'll go to my father-in-law's house. ”

After speaking, Yan Shupeng went out.

Wen settled down, pressed the joy in his heart, called the personal maid, ordered to bring some gifts, and sent the companion to go back to his mother's house first, inform, and called the nurse to come over, brought the three children with him, looked at it, and put on the clothes for going out, and was ready to stop.

Just getting ready here, Yan Shupeng had already come back and said, "I have already told my father and mother. My mother also brought some oranges and pastries to my mother-in-law. The carriage is ready. Let's go out. ”

Wen Shi hurriedly said: "Thank you mother for your thoughtfulness. We're all ready too. Let's go. ”

After speaking, he took the child out of the house with Yan Shupeng and got into a carriage to go to Wen's maiden house.

Wen's maiden family was a silk merchant in Qingyang City. In the past, he was a silk merchant who was bigger than the Lan family, and he opened silk shops all over Huzhou Province. Most of the silk business in the world is monopolized by silk merchants in Suzhou Province. Most of the silk sent from Suzhou Province to Huzhou Province was for the Wen family. Therefore, the Wen family is the largest wholesaler of silk and satin. The other small wholesalers all had to get Suzhou silk to the Wen family. Otherwise, they can only buy local silk and sell it. Back then, the Lan family still had to rely on the Wen family to give them a little business, so that they could gain a foothold in Ancheng. But later, the Lan family climbed to the Xiao Chen family by chance, became a big silk merchant, and also mastered the sharp weapon of cotton cloth, and now he is the largest cotton cloth merchant in Dachu, but his business in silk has shrunk a lot. Because the Wen family has always had a close relationship with the Lan family, they have also received some cotton cloth business from the Lan family, and they have made a lot of money in recent years.

However, now the Wen family sees that the Lan family, who once relied on their snort, is now extremely rich and has become a big businessman who plays a pivotal role in Dachu, and their eyes are also very hot, and they are especially envious of the good luck of the Lan family, how did they climb to the Xiao Chen family? When Chen Yuanheng was a assassin in Huzhou, the Wen family did not stammer, but Chen Yuanheng dealt with the past in general, and people in a province were stammering, where could Chen Yuanheng pay attention to everything. Naturally, it can't compare to a family like the Lan family that has been following from Ancheng.

Because of this, the Wen family attaches great importance to the marriage of the family, and pays more and more attention to the girls who have married with the scholars. When the Wen family married the Yan family, the Yan family was still a small family, and the Wen family just fell in love with Yan Shupeng's talent and talent to marry his daughter with a rich dowry. However, I didn't expect that later, the Wen family did not get involved with the Xiao Chen family, but the in-laws Yan family got into the Xiao Chen family, and they were prosperous all the way, and they were promoted from the local level to Qingyang City.

Of course, with the help of the Thorn Shi family, the Wen family's business in Huzhou is getting bigger and bigger. In particular, the relationship between the Yan family and Huang Xunji is very good, so the Wen family also got in touch with the Huang family under the guidance of their in-laws, and the business was done in Heyangzhou. In recent years, the Wen family's business has been getting better and better, and the family property has become more and more, but they have not been rich or unkind, but under the leadership of their in-laws, they have done a lot of good deeds, whether it is a hospital or a Yangshan Hall, there are a lot of donations from the Wen family. In Huzhou Province, it has also created a reputation for benevolence and charity.

While the Wen family is getting richer and richer, they pay more attention to the Wen family, and give a lot of gifts and money to the Wen family and his wife every year. For Yan Shupeng's son-in-law, he is even more important. He also takes care of the business of the Wen family and his wife, and often takes the Wen mother and son back to their parents' house to live. Therefore, there are a lot of exchanges, today, the Wen family sent the dowry over to say that the husband and wife would come over with their children in the evening, and the Wen family was not surprised, because there were many such situations, so they stayed at home and waited.

Not long after, the Wen couple took their children to Wen's house. After the Wen couple met their parents, the Wen family did not say anything, but Yan Shupeng told him that he was recruited by the county lord of Wen Hui and was ready to take his wife and children to follow the county lord of Wen Hui.

As soon as he said this, the old lady of the Wen family was taken aback, he didn't expect it to be such a big event, the old man of the Wen family couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly called his sons, uncles and sisters-in-law from all over to discuss the matter. For a while, the Wen family moved, the main courtyard was very busy, the Wen family lived together, although the eight heads of the house were separated, but they all lived in an alley, and at this moment the long house came over as soon as they greeted it.

It was Yan Shupeng who was confused by such a big battle. (To be continued......)
