Chapter 12: The Servant and His Family

The snow in Layue can't hide the prosperity of Luoyang.

Chen Chen sat in the carriage and opened the curtain to see the bustle in Luoyang City, feeling a little gloomy in his heart.

Who would have thought that in a few months, troubled times would arise?

Who would dare to think that a few years later, such a prosperous Luoyang would be burned?

The powerful and vast empire of the Han Dynasty, before it fell apart, still showed people with his unique style and spirit.

Chen Chen looked at the porters and pawns walking on the street.

What is the peaceful and prosperous world in their eyes?

"When we get to the Cai family's house, we will send the prepared books to the hall together."

Chen Chen explained to Uncle Chen that today he was ordered by his father to go to Cai Yong's mansion to seek the name of a disciple, whether Chen Chen loves Jingyi or wants to achieve a good name, Cai Yong is a good choice.

"Okay, young master."

Chen Bo nodded, today he and Chen Chen were in the same carriage, driving the coachman of his own Hou Mansion.

Chen Xian didn't come with Chen Chen, saying that he was exercising Chen Chen, but in fact, he went to live a two-person world with his wife.

"Sugar man! A pair of five dollars! Freshly baked, sweet! ”

Chen Chen was about to lower the curtain when he heard someone on the street corner not far away who seemed to be selling candy.

He doesn't know if there are sugar people in the Han Dynasty, but five dollars a sugar man is not cheap, you know, an adult man finds a restaurant to have a full meal, which is almost thirty yuan, this small piece of sugar people, worth five dollars, it seems that this small snack made of sugar, because of the cost of sugar, can be regarded as a light luxury consumer goods.

"I'm going to buy a candy man."

"Okay, young master."

After informing Uncle Chen, Chen Chen slipped off the carriage, went to the sugar man stall to buy a few pairs of sugar people, and took clean silk and wrapped them.

"Uncle Chen, you can help me put it away when I store this sugar man in the car, and I'll give it to Cao'er to taste when I get back home tonight."

Chen Chen handed a pair of candy figures wrapped in silk to Uncle Chen, and then hid another pair of sugar figures wrapped in silk silk in his arms, Cai Yong was not the only one living in Cai Yong's mansion.

"Okay, young master."

Uncle Chen maintained a warm face for many years, took the sugar man handed by Chen Chen, and carefully stored it in the carriage, which was for Cao'er, Chen Chen and Cao'er were both grown up by Uncle Chen, and Cao'er was like a daughter to Uncle Chen.

As Chen Chen's personal maid, Cao'er rarely has the opportunity to go out to play on the street, and this sugar man rarely has the opportunity to taste it.

Uncle Chen put away the sugar man, and was about to raise his head, when he found a sugar man that was not wrapped in silk stopped in front of him.

His expression froze, and he looked up in surprise and saw Chen Chen with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Chen, you can taste it too."

Chen Chen looked at Uncle Chen's expression and laughed secretly in his heart.

Uncle Chen has always had a warm face, but there is never too much change in his expression, and even when he is in danger, he is still like that, as if this has become a mask for his life.

Uncle Chen watched him grow up, and he wasn't watching Uncle Chen grow old.

If he didn't look closely, it would be difficult for him to find that Uncle Chen's eyes already had fine lines at the corners of his eyes, and there was a slight white light at the roots of his hair.

"Okay...... Young Master......"

Uncle Chen took the sugar man, and quietly looked at the delicate little sugar man in his hand, he didn't know what to say for a while, and he didn't know what to do.

It seems that since Chen Chen began to speak, he has been able to say less and less, and he seems to have only said "Okay, young master" for the rest of his life.

He looked up again at Chen Chen, whose eyes were shining, looking forward to eating the candy man, and his heart was inexplicably comforted.

Because Chen Chen's eyes are smart and have real emotions.

Uncle Chen is different from Cao'er, he used to be Mrs. Chen's servant, and he often went out to run errands, so he could naturally see more of the world.

In her spare time, Cao'er just sits in the courtyard and looks at the flowers and plants, looking at the square sky surrounded by the courtyard wall.

Chen Bo has been in and out of many families, and has been in contact with many rich and noble families, he knows the treatment of a real servant, and he also knows that it is the status quo of the entire Han Dynasty today, and the servant life is cheap.

There are only three members of the Chen family, and their attitude towards servants is completely different from that of the world.

Strict with family rules, lenient than others.

The subordinates of the Chen Mansion seem to be regarded as real family members by the Chen family, and over the years, the servants of the Chen Mansion have rarely changed.

What's more, the Chen family gave them the opportunity to read and write, and Mrs. Chen asked the servants in the family to be uniformed in shifts, so that they had more leisure time to improve themselves. The head of the Chen family would take the time to teach them personally, and even the young master would come to help them and teach them some knowledge.

If the Lord is like this, what more can a servant ask for?

Uncle Chen, pinched the candy man in his hand tightly, he poked out his tongue, and began to lick the little sugar man slowly one bite at a time, it looked a little clumsy, but Chen Chen smiled happily.

Because he saw Uncle Chen's smile.

It's not a warm mask-like smile, it's pure happiness.

"Let's go."

After explaining to the driver who was driving, Chen Chen also held a pair of candy figures, one old and one young were in this carriage, tasting the freshly baked sugar figures, looking at each other and smiling.

Luoyang City is very large, and Luoyang City is also very small.

The distance from Chen's Mansion to Cai's Mansion is not close, but the time of a candy man is about the same, he took a silk silk and wiped his mouth, Chen Chen and Uncle Chen got out of the car together, Uncle Chen was carrying a small package in his arms, and the master and servant explained to the coachman, and climbed the steps of Cai's Mansion.

Knocking on the door of Cai's mansion, Uncle Chen put a big coat on Chen Chen, waiting for Cai's response.

"Childe, do you have a post?"

The door of Cai's mansion slowly opened the opening that allowed one person to enter and exit, and a gatehouse walked out of it and saluted Chen Chen and the others.

Uncle Chen took out a prayer note from his cuff and handed it over.

"Please wait."

The porter took the post, respectfully replied, turned around and entered Cai's mansion, and estimated that he had gone to find Cai's family.

After approving the big gun, it was not cold, Chen Chen stood at the door of Cai's mansion and waited quietly.

What kind of person is Cai Yong?

A simple bachelor's degree?

Not necessarily.

Cai Yong, when he was young, was also a person full of legends like Liu Bei.

When Liu Bei was serving as the prime minister of the plains, he was assassinated by the local tyrants, but the assassin was impressed by Liu Bei's personality charm and did not kill him, and told him the situation.

When Cai Yong was exiled to Shuofang, Qiu Jiayangqiu sent someone to assassinate him, but when the assassin was dormant and observing, he was moved by his personality and not only did not kill him, but also told him that someone wanted to kill him.

Yang Qiu bribed the local officials again, wanting to poison Cai Yong, but the person who accepted the bribe sold Yang Qiu with his backhand, reminding Cai Yong to be cautious.

What would it be like to be such a university scholar with such a peculiar personality?
