Chapter Twenty-Seven: Hope at Home

Wen Hao is the eldest son of the second room and the only son of the second room, but he is a concubine. At the beginning, because the second lady of the second room only had one daughter Wen Jin for many years, and she had never given birth to a son, the old lady Li had no choice, so she explained to the second lady and gave one of her maids to the Li family, the son of the Li family, to the second master Chen Yuanluan as a concubine, that is, Aunt Li. Aunt Li was also very competitive and gave birth to a son. The only male in the second room, because he was born to the second lady's own henchman, the second lady is also very loved, and he has been recorded in his name since he was a child, and he is considered a son-in-law. I also raised it myself. It looks okay now, but Chen Zhaonan just dislikes him for being a little stupid, and if he pins his hopes on him in the future, it won't work.

Chen Zhaonan shook his head and looked at the grandchildren of Dafang. Wenchang and Wensheng are both concubines, their mothers are not from high backgrounds, but they are all stirring up the family, and the eldest Chen Yuanfeng spoils his aunt, so these two concubines are used to being abnormal.

Only the eldest son and grandson, Chen Wenqi, originally because he was a grandson, it was inevitable that he would be more spoiled, and most of them would be gentle. But Chen Wenqi's mother has never been favored by her husband, she is stupid, and she is often bullied by several concubines, so Chen Wenqi not only has no squishy atmosphere, but also has always been very calm, and people have strategies, there is no way, such a wonderful father and mother can only cheer up, or else, maybe she has been bullied to death by several aunts.

Chen Zhaonan looked at his eldest grandson with a satisfied expression. This is the hope of my own branch. Since the two sons have no hope, while they are still alive, they must plan more for their grandson. In this way, this branch of oneself should still be saved. Moreover, Bai Yuying, the daughter-in-law married by this grandson, was born in a family and is very virtuous, and the two of them will definitely be able to revitalize the family business in the future.

Chen Zhaonan decided on this day that he would no longer waste his mind on his two incompetent sisters-in-law in the future, but concentrate on planning for his grandson Chen Wenqi.

Chen Zhaonan thought to himself. Suddenly, I heard the voice of my grandson Pei Jingzheng: "Grandfather, I heard that the overseas scenery is completely different from ours in the Central Plains, and I really want to open my eyes." ”

Chen Zhaonan smiled: "It's not easy. As long as your parents agree, you can take your third uncle's merchant ship to your Wenjun cousin's place for a few days without any cost. Originally, reading thousands of books, traveling thousands of miles, and learning together was to travel the world to grow. Look at your third uncle, now he is famous, a large part of the reason is because he left the capital and traveled all over the world when he was not as old as you are now, not only to our Chen family's clan land. I have also been to the clan land of the Bai family in the northwest, the Wang family in the southwest, and the clan land of the Li family, so he is very popular. Get things organized. ”

Tian Jingye and Pei Jingzheng's eyes lit up. Tian Jingye is more quiet, and Pei Jingzheng is a fiery character, as soon as he heard it, he became interested and asked: "Grandfather, really?" Did the third uncle really go to these places when he was young? It's remarkable. ”

Chen Zhaonan smiled and said, "If you don't believe it, you can ask your third uncle." ”

This matter, not to mention that Tian Jingye and Pei Jingzheng didn't know, even the four brothers of the Chen family heard about it for the first time. Therefore, Pei Jingzheng hurriedly walked to his father and asked his third uncle Chen Yuanheng: "Third uncle, my grandfather said that when you were young, you traveled all over the world, and even went to the clan land of the four families, right?" ”

Chen Yuanheng has not yet answered. Pei Jian'an had already said to his son with a smile: "This is a true thing, I was still in the army in the southwest at that time, and when I heard that your third uncle had arrived at my camp, I was surprised, why did such a son and brother leave the capital?" I also went to the remote place in the southwest. It can't be a runaway, right? I hurriedly wrote a letter to your grandfather, but it turned out that your grandfather had gone out to practice. At that time, I still admired your grandfather, who was so decisive and willing to let his third brother travel around the world, how dangerous it was, he was still so young, he was not as old as you are now, and he didn't have a family. ”

It turns out that my father knows about this. Pei Jingzheng asked: "It turns out that at that time, the third uncle was still in my father's army?" ”

Tian Zhenbian said: "I also know about this matter, at that time, I and Yuanfang had just been married, and Jingye had just been born, and the third brother came to bid farewell to Yuanfang, and Yuanfang was still very worried and sent some coils. At that time, when it came to this matter, my mother said that if the third brother could have the perseverance to go out and practice, his future achievements would be limitless. At the beginning, when the emperor was still in the palace, he was still an ordinary prince, and he had traveled all over the world and also visited the clan land of the four families. Therefore, later, the current emperor was able to stand out among the princes, become the crown prince, and finally sit in the world. ”

These juniors don't know about this matter. Tian Jingye asked his father: "Father, it turns out that the emperor's uncle once traveled all over the world?" As a prince, how did he get out of the capital? ”

Tian Zhenbian said: "This matter, in fact, I don't know, it was all your grandmother who told me, at that time, when the emperor's uncle went out to travel the world, I was not yet born." Hehe. Your grandmother said that at that time, the emperor was very wise and agreed to the emperor's request, allowing him to travel in micro-clothes and experience more. At that time, your grandmother, as his own sister, was also very worried, and in the two years that the emperor traveled, your grandmother lost ten pounds. ”

Chen Zhaonan knew about this matter, and Chen Zhaonan said: "I know about this matter. At first, the emperor was not taken seriously among the princes, but after the experience, he was calm and decisive, and he was deeply favored by the emperor, and finally became the prince. ”

Pei Jingzheng said: "In this way, when the emperor was a prince, he could put down his honor and go out to practice, and my generation should also follow the footsteps of his predecessors, eating, drinking and having fun in this capital all day long, how boring it is, and there is no growth." ”

Chen Yuanheng said with a smile: "Well, it's good that my nephew has this idea, if your parents are willing, you can just celebrate the New Year, wait for the river to thaw, rush to Shanghai City, play there, and then follow my family's merchant ship to your cousin on Yizhou Island to play." Give your cousin a favor, too, who is now busy and has no helper. ”

Pei Jingzheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he didn't dare to speak, he really looked at his father. Pei Jian'an remained silent, and Pei Jingzheng's eyes dimmed. For this father, Pei Jingzheng is still very afraid. Tian Jingye also looked at his father with bright eyes. Tian Zhenbian said: "Actually, I have already talked to your mother about this matter, and your grandmother has also agreed. It's just that you're worried about your grandmother's health, so you drag it out, and if your grandmother is better in the spring, you can go and give your cousin a help. ”

Tian Jingye was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Thank you, father." ”

Pei Jingzheng saw that a sissy like Tian Jingye could go out to practice, but he could only stay at home, and couldn't help but look at his father very resentfully. Pei Jian'an saw that it was almost gone, and said to his son: "Actually, I have just told your third uncle that you will also go to Xinguang City to experience and experience, but although your cousin is a younger brother, he is now the lord of a city sealed by the imperial court, a member of the first grade, you can't ignore it, you can go to help, you can't add to the chaos, you must respect your brother, listen to his dispatch, if you can't do it, you are ready to put your brother's shelf, you don't want to be embarrassed as soon as possible." ”

Pei Jingzheng was overjoyed and said: "Father, don't worry, I know how to be measured, and I dare to make a military order, if I don't listen to my cousin's dispatch, I will definitely be dealt with by military law." ”

Pei Jian'an smiled and stroked his beard. Chen Wenqi couldn't help but look at his father when he looked at the heat of his eyes. My heart was gloomy, how could my father be like my cousin's father? His father has always been mediocre and has no ambitions, this is okay, he has always doted on his younger brother, and he has always been very cold to himself, how can he let him go overseas too.

Besides, I know what is going on at home. My family didn't look down on the third uncle's family before, and often bullied their family by relying on the fact that they were the elders. Even when he was a child, he was ignorant, and he often bullied Wen Jun and Wen Lin. Now, Wen Jun is already the lord of a city, but he has not achieved anything, why is he embarrassed to defect to Wen Jun?

Chen Zhaonan saw the gloomy look of his eldest grandson, and nodded, this child is not satisfied with the current life of fine clothes and food, but also thinks about the future, this heart is much stronger than his two sisters-in-law, and he must be well arranged.

They were talking here, when suddenly another maid came in and said: "Report to the old lady, the old lady has asked me to pass the word, lunch is ready, please take the old lady, aunt, and young master to the flower theater in the garden for dinner." ”

Chen Zhaonan hurriedly took a group of people to the Flower Theater.

Everyone on the female side's side gathered around the old lady and went to the flower theater in the garden, the family sat down, the hot earth dragon that had been born in the house for a long time, the middle of the room was empty, and a group of female music and dance performances began.

Everyone ate this meal very happily, and the three brothers of the Chen family and the two brothers-in-law also drank very happily.

After the meal, everyone talked for a while, and the eldest and third masters of the Chen family sent Chen Yuanru and Chen Yuanfang's family back respectively. For dinner, Chen Yuanheng ate it at his home.

After eating, Chen Yuanheng, Bai Shi, and Wen Hui said that the two brothers-in-law had to send their sons to Xinguang City for training. Bai smiled and said: "That relationship is good, it's rare that they are all willing to give it." Wen Jun was lonely there, and it was just right to have these cousins to help, first, he had a helper, and secondly, he had relatives. Speaking of which, we Wen Jun and Wen Lin were often bullied in the house when they were children because of our involvement, but his two cousins helped them every time they came. Especially Jing Zheng, who has been chivalrous since he was a child, often helps Wen Jun beat Wen Qi and Wen Chang. ”

Wen Hui didn't know about this, it turned out that her cousins were not close, but her cousins were very good to her brother. It's really a big family with a lot of strange things.
