Chapter 33 People are poor and short-sighted

A capable official of Qingping, a hero of troubled times? It seems to be similar to Cao Cao's prosperous and capable ministers, and the heroes of troubled times, this criticism, for Chen Mo, can indeed boost his reputation, after leaving Xu Shao's mansion, Chen Mo found that his luck had risen a little, a full ten points, but this luck, Chen Mo always felt a little empty.

"Childe, why are you so worried?" After Juan'er came out with Chen Mo, she looked at Chen Mo's preoccupied appearance, and was a little puzzled: "Then Mr. Xu didn't comment on the son?" ”

"Yes, and the review is not bad." Cao Cao sighed on the side: "It's just that for your son-in-law, this comment may not be a good thing. ”

"Brother Meng De also saw it?" Chen Mo looked at Cao Cao with some helplessness.

"Well, virtue is not worthy, Xu Zi will thief this old man very much." Cao Cao nodded and smiled.

"My son-in-law is erudite, and the head of the family once said that the talent of a son-in-law is rare in the world." Juan'er looked at Cao Cao dissatisfied, looking like a little dog who protects the master.

"Virtue is not worthy, not talent." Chen Mo rubbed Juan'er's head and smiled.

"Childe is filial piety and is quite famous in Dangli." Juan'er said dissatisfied.

"This virtue, not only virtue, the most important thing is the family background, I first came to Luoyang, I have no reputation, and my performance in Taixue is mediocre, but now I have a comment similar to Brother Mengde, there must be people who are not convinced, and then, I am afraid that it will not be peaceful." Chen Mo stretched his muscles, but the depression on his body had already dissipated.

"That Cao Gong ......" Juan'er looked at Cao Cao curiously.

"Brother Mengde's father, Song Gong, is the official worship of Taiwei, the head of the three dukes, in addition, the elder brother is also friendly with the Yuan family, and he has a reputation for political achievements, I don't have these." Chen Mo smiled, but he was not too discouraged in his heart, since he had already received this comment, he would find a way to convince people, it was not his style to complain about the sky.

"Although there are some philistines, but it is precisely this principle that the virtuous brother can see it, and he will be relieved to be a brother." Cao Cao laughed when he heard this.

"Whether you look at it or not, what should come will always come, since you can't stop it, you can only face it, and you just happen to see this young talent in Luoyang." Chen Mo smiled.

"It's good if you can understand, this Luoyang is indeed prosperous, but there are some things that you have to move forward and can't avoid." Cao Cao patted Chen Mo on the shoulder and said earnestly, he is a person who has experienced it.

"No matter what, thanks to my brother for today's help." Chen Mo nodded, hugged his fist at Cao Cao and said, if there is no Cao Cao today, he will really touch it, and he may not be able to get Xu Shao's comments, it is more likely to be taken away directly, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, a dignified and famous person, not everyone is qualified to offend.

"With a lot of effort, if the virtuous brother really doesn't want to go, this ...... How about Chun Man Lou? In the end, Cao Cao squeezed his eyebrows at Chen Mo and said.

"This ......" Chen Mo shook his head with a wry smile and said, "In that place, the family teacher has instructed you to go as little as possible." ”

The most important thing is that it is too expensive, Chen Mo has all his net worth now, and he may not be able to make a game, not to mention that there are drunken activities, how much does it cost, so far, Chen Mo is not embarrassed to ask.

"Ziyuan is too rigid, this is not in a hurry, another day, another day." Cao Cao laughed, he didn't care, people are not romantic, he Cao Mengde has passed and stands, he is still romantic, his little brother is good at everything, just like that Zang Ziyuan, old-fashioned, in this regard, it still needs to be well edified, seeing the mention of Zang Hong, Chen Mo was a little unhappy, Cao Cao changed the topic in a timely manner and said: "You go to visit Lu Gong, the worship is too expensive Lu Gong generally will not accept it, but don't go empty-handed." ”

In fact, this kind of thing is very common, although Lu Zhi is a little high-minded, but he is not unsympathetic, but he will not accept too expensive gifts, but if he really leaves empty-handed, Lu Zhi will naturally not say anything, but how to say it...... People are really willing to make friends, not to see how valuable your gift is, but whether you have the intention.

"Understood." Hearing this, Chen Mo nodded, in the Han Dynasty, and even in the surrounding Xiongnu and Western Regions, it is a relatively common custom to exchange courtesies.

"Today is my brother and Ben Chu still have an appointment, so I will leave, if necessary, you can ask someone to come to Chun Nuan Pavilion to find me, these days will be there most of the time." Cao Cao obviously didn't have Chen Mo's fetters in this regard.

"Childe, where is the Chun Nuan Pavilion?" Juan'er asked curiously.

"Qinglou." Chen Mo said goodbye to Cao Cao and said casually as he walked.

"Is that place really as good as those people say it is?" Although Juan'er often hears people talk about it, she doesn't think that Qinglou is better than ordinary post houses.

"It varies from person to person, some people like it, and naturally some people reject it, but for most men, it's really good, and the reason for rejection is mostly just ......" Speaking of this, Chen Mo paused, not knowing whether to continue talking, for him, he drank too much that night, although his consciousness was clear, but his body was numb and did not obey the call, in fact, if he wanted to say what kind of experience he had, he didn't think it, but aside from this, the style of Chun Nuan Pavilion and the thoughtful service were incomparable to other places.

"Why?" Juan'er looked at Chen Mo curiously, not understanding why she suddenly stopped talking.

"No money." Chen Mo sighed, he didn't think it was in Dangli before, but after arriving in Luoyang, Chen Mo began to deeply understand the importance of money, in fact, he also intended to invite Cao Cao back a few times, but he was shy in his pocket, and the place where he could afford it was not as good as a place like Chun Nuan Pavilion.

"Hmm." When Juan'er heard this, she thought of other questions, nodded in agreement, and said: "The pork in Luoyang City is twice as expensive as Dangli, and the slave maid is thinking about buying some chickens to raise these days, which can save some." ”

Zang Hong treats Chen Mo well, but Chen Mo is not good at taking too much, and his own mother also relies on teachers to support him, even if Chen Mo feels that some necessary expenses are inevitable, he doesn't want to talk to Zang Hong, Juan'er knows this, so Chen Mo's daily use, Juan'er also helps save as much as possible.

Chen Mo glanced back at Juan'er a little weirdly, what they said didn't seem to be the same thing, right? Why does this girl in Qinglou think of pork?

"So, poor ghosts like us still don't have to wander around the streets, and we can't afford to buy them when we see them." Chen Mo felt that he should find a way to find some financial resources, but who should he find to fund himself? That's a problem.

But what we have to think about now is to go to see what gift Lu Gong will give tomorrow, the expensive ones can't afford them, and the cheap ones can't be used, so I only have one afternoon, so let's go back and ask the steward.
