22 15 Conscription

In fact, Cai Yong has always felt a little regretful, he is so old, but he doesn't have a son yet, so he only has a daughter to talk to.

When most people come to visit Cai Yong, they persuade Cai Yong to take more concubines and have more children, so as to continue the incense.

But Cai Yong thinks that some things are destined by God, if God is destined to have no son, no matter how much he takes a concubine, it will be in vain, of course, this also has a little to do with Mrs. Cai's relatively strong position.

There is no son, his daughter is also a human being, he will not treat his daughter harshly because he has no son, this daughter is still his heart, he only had a daughter in his forties, of course he is a baby, so he often takes his daughter with him to play the piano for her, at this time, it is also a rare time for Cai Yong to relieve the depression in his heart.

Naturally, it was the same today, but as I flicked and flicked, a servant came over, and my face was embarrassed.

"Master, there's a fight outside."

"What?"

Cai Yong stopped playing the piano and looked stunned: "Fighting?" ”

"Yes, master, they fought over who delivered first and who delivered later."

The servant looked embarrassed: "Master, the front yard is a little out of control now, otherwise, you will go and take a look?" ”

Cai Yong shook his head and sighed, looking helpless.

"These posteriors, don't know how to study hard, they know how to be opportunistic, I praise them 10,000 words, if they don't have real talent and real learning, sooner or later they will be exposed, they really don't know how to improve!"

"Who's to say it isn't? Every day, so many people come to deliver articles, not to mention the master, those of us who are servants also feel embarrassed, no, not only are there people fighting outside today, but there are also children to deliver articles, it's really a bad day. ”

The servant inadvertently said that Cai Yong was surprised.

"Boy?"

"Yes, if you have not tied your hair and crowned it, you must be a child."

The servant replied like this, which made Cai Yong feel a little crying and laughing.

"This kind of thing is actually called the boy has learned, but since it is the boy who comes to deliver the article, there must be some fame, isn't it that a few boys who have just entered Taixue are anxious to become famous?"

"The person who came is a very handsome young man, I don't know if it's a boy who is too learned."

Cai Yong suddenly became a little interested.

"Go and show me the boy's article."

"Huh? The master, the ...... of those who are fighting at the front door."

"Still don't understand? How can they make trouble for the sake of succession? It's obviously to force me to go out to meet them, so that I can give me the article directly, you go to the official and call the northern lieutenant to deal with this matter! Drive them all away! ”

The servant suddenly realized.

"I see, the old servant understands, and the old servant will deal with it."

The servant then left, leaving Cai Yong to shake his head with a smile, looked at his daughter who was being held by his wife, and said helplessly: "It seems that the interest in playing the piano today is going to be gone." ”

"Who made her husband famous?"

Mrs. Cai was also relieved on the side: "Even the boy who just came to Luoyang to study knows the reputation of his husband, and he wants to ask to learn from his husband, which is a good thing." ”

"What's good? I was disturbed even by the interest of playing the piano, and besides, where did they fancy my talents? It's just my reputation, I want to praise them through my mouth, so that they can double their worth, so that they can ask for land and ask for help, where do they want to study? Alas......"

Cai Yong shook his head helplessly, and suddenly remembered Cao Cao again.

"When Meng De was the lieutenant of the north, he managed this area very handy, and ordinary people didn't dare to come to the mansion to harass him, but it could be regarded as a period of peace, but when Meng De left, these people came again, and they did whatever it took to get me out."

"Who made her husband famous?"

Mrs. Cai repeated.

"yes, who called me famous?"

Cai Yong smiled self-deprecatingly.

After a while, the servant came running again and brought a wooden box.

"Master, this is the article delivered by the boy, there are three copies in total, and there is also a famous thorn."

Cai Yong nodded and picked up the famous thorn.

"Yingchuan Guo Peng? Yingchuan Guo's? Guo Peng...... Guo Peng...... Oh! Come to think of it, is it a filial son who chisels ice and fishes in the winter to worship his mother? ”

"Fishing in the ice to worship my mother? And what's going on? ”

Mrs. Cai lives in the inner mansion and has never heard of this matter, but Cai Yong has heard of it.

These days, this matter has been spread a lot in major families, and the elders of various families have intentionally or unintentionally used this matter to admonish their children, telling them to pay attention to learning Guo Peng.

This is indeed a good way to become famous, and now everyone is praising Guo Peng for being a filial son, and even Cai Yong has heard of it.

However, Cai Yong's way in this is also clear.

When he was young, he was also taught by the elders of the family to serve his mother when he was sick, and then he was rumored to "serve his mother without undressing and not sleeping for 70 days".

The villagers all felt that Cai Yong was very filial, so Cai Yong was able to become famous.

In fact, of course, Cai Yong was worried about his mother, and he had personally served the sick, but how could he not sleep for seventy days?

Three days without sleep is enough to cause a person to collapse, let alone seventy days, seven days without sleep is dangerous.

Because he has done such a thing himself, he has nothing to despise Guo Peng's actions, everyone does it, it is customary, and they are used to it.

Cai Yong just thinks that Guo Peng is very smart, and the Guo family's plan is doing well, so he has been praised and learned by major families.

It is estimated that a large number of "filial sons" will emerge in the future.

What would be his article like for such a person?

Cai Yong was slightly interested.

Then he looked at the three rolls of bamboo slips in cloth bags in the wooden box, one of which had the character "Cao" written on it.

"Cao? Isn't his surname Guo? ”

Cai Yong opened the cloth bag with some curiosity, took out the bamboo slips inside, unfolded it, and was stunned.

"It's ...... Mende's Letters? ”

When Mrs. Cai heard the word "Mengde", she came up to see it.

"What? Isn't that the boy's article? ”

"No, it's Mende's...... Referral letters? Guo Peng is Meng De's sister-in-law, and he is already engaged to the younger sister of Meng De's family, so Meng De wrote a letter of recommendation to me, hoping that I would meet him, saying that his talent and character are the best choice. ”

Cai Yong finished reading Cao Cao's letter of recommendation, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth: "Meng De has never recommended any outstanding offspring to me, this time, he actually recommended his sister-in-law to me first, it seems that Meng De likes his little sister-in-law very much." ”

Mrs. Cai thought for a while, shook her head and said: "Although the Yingchuan Guo family is a grammar official, he is also a century-old famous family, his family background is well-dressed, and it is okay to be a friend.

I think Cao Mengde also wrote a letter of recommendation to her husband for this reason, probably at Cao Song's behest, his father asked for it, how could Cao Mengde not comply? Husband, is such a person worth commenting on? Isn't it detrimental to his identity that his husband commented on him? ”

Cai Yong disagreed.

"If it was helpless, Meng De would not have written so carefully, between the lines, I can feel that Meng De is indeed attentive, no matter what his father is, Guo Peng can be treated by Meng De like this, he must have some ability, madam, do you say yes?"

Mrs. Cai looked helpless.

"My husband looks at it like this, and I can't say anything, but does my husband really appreciate Cao Mengde so much? What is so special about him? ”

"You can't talk about the outstanding, the heart of a child is really rare, I want to prove myself, I want to make a contribution, if this heart can be well guided, it will be fruitful."

Cai Yong put down Cao Cao's letter of recommendation, picked up another cloth bag with the word 'Guo' written on it, and opened it as he spoke: "In today's season, the world is declining, the children of officials and nobles are all for personal gain, and there are very few people who are dedicated to the public. ”

took down the cloth bag and took out the bamboo slips, Cai Yong untied the thin line and unfolded the bamboo slips.

"Fifteen from the army, eighty to return, the road to the villagers, who is in the family, from a distance is the Jun family, pine and cypress mounds are ......"

Cai Yong's complexion changed from relaxed and interested at the beginning to serious now.

"The rabbit enters from the dog's sinus, the pheasant flies from the beam, the atrium gives birth to the valley, and the inoue gives birth to the ......"

Mrs. Cai blinked, hugged her little daughter and came up to look at the bamboo slips.

"Chung Gu holds the soup, picks the sunflower and holds the soup, the soup is cooked for a while, I don't know who Yi'a is...... When I went out to look east, I burst into tears...... Stain my clothes ......"

For some reason, Cai Yong suddenly felt a great sadness filling his heart, and an inexplicable sour feeling swept over.
