Chapter 105: First Meeting
Lu Bu seemed to have found someone to talk to, and in the next few days, he often went to Chen Mo for various reasons.
In general, Dong Zhuo is good to Lu Bu, but firstly, Ding Yuan's matter made Lu Bu morally in a position of being scolded, and secondly, Dong Zhuo took Lu Bu with him in and out, preventing several assassinations, which made people even more disliked Lu Bu.
Now Lu Bu's situation is that the scholars don't want to see him, but the generals of the Xiliang Army are jealous that Lu Bu is favored by Dong Zhuo and also excludes him, and he must be uncomfortable in his heart, and Lu Bu is too high-profile.
Chen Mo occasionally nodded, for example, the next day, Lu Bu asked Dong Zhuo for leave and went to worship Ding Yuan, on weekdays, he was much more low-key, and even Dong Zhuo's guard, Lu Bu also asked Dong Zhuo to let him and Huaxiong take turns.
Hua Xiong is a fierce general under Dong Zhuo, and has followed Dong Zhuo for many years, but as soon as Lu Bu came, it felt as if Hua Xiong was alienated, and he naturally felt uncomfortable, and now Lu Bu asked Dong Zhuo for his life, and Dong Zhuo also agreed, in this way, Hua Xiong inherited a favor from Lu Bu, and Hua Xiong, as a veteran under Dong Zhuo, was the first warrior under Dong Zhuo in the past.
In fact, the cards in Lu Bu's hand are good, but they don't know how to use them, a very interesting person, obviously wants to be close to Chen Mo, but he doesn't take the initiative to speak, most of the time he pretends to meet by chance, and then it is logical to be a peer, he doesn't like it much, but he doesn't hate it, he is arrogant, but he is eager for the recognition of others.
"People are like this, you have to think about the problem from the perspective of others, Wen Hou, you are brave, but you are powerful, except that the soldiers under your command feel happy to fight with you, for others, whether Wen Hou is strong or weak, it doesn't matter, and now you are valued by the Taishi, the position is high, and you disdain others, but you make people admire you, how is it possible" Luoyang has a fine snow, not big, but they are all raised and kept going, the two walked in the snow curtain, Chen Mo said without a match.
"That's too much for you to say." Lu Bu can really feel that everyone's attitude towards him has changed in the past few days, but when talking to those people, the generals are better, and talking to the scholars, a word is tired, but Chen Mo, a marginal person, is also twisting and turning, but it is not annoying.
"Officialdom no, getting along with people, that's it, something that doesn't violate principles, it's sometimes better to take a step back than not to give an inch, Wen Hou is powerful with fists, in fact, there is no need to change too much, if you are really like me, I'm afraid you don't have this world-class bravery." Chen Mo smacked his lips, turned his head and glanced at Lu Bu's arms, which were several times thicker than his own, even if they were hidden in his clothes, he could feel the amazing explosive power, if Lu Bu was really like an old fritter in officialdom, when he arrived on the battlefield, would he still have that kind of invincible spirit, it is estimated that it is difficult.
"That's a good thing," Lu Bu said proudly.
Chen Mo: ""
This man cannot boast.
Seeing that Chen Mo didn't speak, Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "This doesn't seem to be the way to Zangfu. ”
"Visit Cai Weng." Chen Mo nodded and said.
"You go, that old man" Lu Bu heard this, turned around and walked in the other direction, Cai Yong spoke, sometimes it is difficult to understand, Lu Bu and Cai Yong have no friendship, and they don't want to go.
"If you have nothing to do on weekdays, you can come to Zangfu, I've been very idle recently." Chen Mo looked at Lu Bu's back and suddenly smiled.
"I'm very busy, I don't necessarily have time, if I have time and happen to be passing by, I'll go and see." Lu Bu paused pretending not to care, didn't look back, and continued to stride away.
This kind of character Chen Mo shook his head, didn't evaluate, and continued to walk towards Cai Yong's mansion, he has a lot of close relationship with Cai Yong, he will go to play chess when he has nothing to do these days, and have a meal by the way, but today, it was Cai Yong who took the initiative to invite, Chen Mo felt that he should have gone earlier, although it was okay to talk, but Chen Mo always felt that Cai Yong had been a little too enthusiastic about himself recently.
"The virtuous nephew came just in time, let's sit down first." Cai Yong was obviously quite happy to see Chen Mo, and waved at Chen Mo and smiled.
"Disturb Cai Weng." After Chen Mo was polite, he went straight to the table, but saw that there was already a woman in the banquet, although he had not seen it, but looking at his figure, it was the woman who stroked the qin in the pavilion that day.
Seeing a straight face today, Chen Mo feels very beautiful, but it is not enough to be amazing, the most attractive thing is the quiet and elegant temperament on her body.
With a slight salute, Chen Mo didn't look at it much, he went straight to the table, staring at a woman he didn't know was very rude, Cai Yong obviously regarded him as a close person, this time it was a family banquet, and maybe there were other meanings in it, but people want to be close to you as their own, and it is rude for you to treat this place as your home.
"This is my daughter, named Yan, and her age is similar to that of a virtuous nephew." Cai Yong introduced the two of them: "General Chen is a young hero, both civil and military, and his name should have been heard." ”
"The sound of the little lady's piano is moving, and Mo is very admirable." Chen Mo smiled at Cai Yan and praised him.
Cai Yan bowed his head lightly: "The general is also a sound law"
"I don't understand." Chen Mo shook his head and said with a smile: "This is also the place of admiration, which can immerse people who don't understand the rhythm of music in the next place, Xiao Niang has surpassed the limit of skills in the piano art, Xiao Niang is similar in age to me, but can reach such a realm on top of one, it is really admirable, he will be the piano everyone one day." ”
"The general has an overreputation." Cai Yan shook his head lightly and said: "The general's chess skills, calligraphy and painting have all been mastered, and my father rarely praises people, but what Yan has heard in the past few days is the name of the general." ”
Speaking of which, there is some resistance in it, Cai Yong is about to praise Chen Mo to the sky, this is too much, but it is easy to lose people's favor.
Chen Mo looked at Cai Yong suspiciously, and had nothing to say about what he was doing
"It's rare to see a young hero, and the old man is also a talent." Cai Yong smiled and said: "By the way, the virtuous nephew can have a marriage match"
"There is a concubine in the family, and the marriage needs to be agreed by the mother." Chen Mo shook his head.
Cai Yong nodded when he heard this, it should be so, who didn't have the words of the concubine.
"If the general has a family affair one day, but the woman asks the general to get rid of the concubine before he can get married, the general is willing" Cai Yan suddenly asked.
Chen Mo looked at Cai Yan suspiciously, didn't think much about it, shook his head and said: "Although my concubine is a lowly person, she is a friend in distress, and no one will take care of her even if she abandons it, but as far as Yu Mo is concerned, her heart is uneasy, and this kind of woman is undoubtedly a jealous woman, even if she compromises and marries home, he will have a restless house in the future." ”
"The general is like this for a concubine, is it not worth it" Cai Yan was a little curious, in this era, it is very common for concubines to give each other away.
"Opinions are different, sometimes the background is not chosen, and this is not the problem of the concubine, if there is a woman who has not yet started, she will meddle in family affairs, this is a loss of virtue, and a woman is willing to not abandon when I am down, under the fence, it is the concubine, when the power is abandoned, in order to seek wealth and nobility, it is not as good as the beast." Chen Mo smiled.
At first, it was just Cai Yan's curiosity to ask, but Chen Mo's answer was somewhat contrary to today's concepts, and the conversation between the two began to extend from the concubine's question to the female commandment, and then he was no longer confined to a certain book, Cai Yan also experienced for the first time that his father was erudite, Chen Mo was familiar with reading thousands of volumes, and his arguments often made people feel refreshed.
"Since my brother is so erudite, he has good attainments in chess, calligraphy, and painting, why don't he learn the piano alone", Cai Yan and Chen Mo are a lot closer, and the title is also called brother under Cai Yong's suggestion.
"When the master plays the piano" Chen Mo couldn't help but think of Zang Hong when he showed himself how to play the piano, rubbed his eyebrows and said: "It's a little not very elegant, so I always think that playing the piano is like this." ”
Zang Hong is not proficient in music, in order to raise Chen Mo's interest, he pretended to be elegant, but his attainments are obviously not as high as Cai Yan's, so pretended to be a posture, and the sound is not aesthetic, not to mention, and after playing a few times, not only broke three strings, but his fingers were also bloody, and since then, Chen Mo has no interest in learning the piano.
Although Chen Mo said it tactfully, Cai Yong could probably guess that it would be very embarrassing for Zang Hong to make a talented and studious disciple avoid a subject like a snake and scorpion.
"I really haven't heard that Zi is good at the way of music and rhythm." Cai Yong couldn't help but laugh.
A family banquet can be regarded as a pleasure for the guests and hosts, and Cai Yan's abundance of learning also made Chen Mo a little surprised, he has the help of systematic immortals, and he has the ability to never forget what he has learned today, this Cai family girl is born with the ability to never forget at the same age as herself
After the banquet, he played a few games with Cai Yong, Cai Yan was playing the piano beside him, but he enjoyed it quite a lot, and it was not until night that Chen Mo said goodbye and left.
"What do I think of this son" After Cai Yong asked the steward to send Chen Mo away, he looked at Cai Yan and asked with a smile.
"As my father said, he is very knowledgeable and funny." Cai Yan said while playing the piano.
"If my father chooses him as my son-in-law, my son would like to," Cai Yong said with a smile.
Cai Yan thought about Chen Mo's posture at the banquet just now, Chen Mo naturally didn't think much about it, but Cai Yan went to see Chen Mo with the purpose of teaching her husband, and when she heard this, her face was also a little red, and she said in a low voice: "Brother may not be willing." ”
"I have my own father." Cai Yong said with a smile.
"The matter of marriage is decided by the father." Cai Yan lowered his head very low.
In fact, the marriage of these years is basically the words of the matchmaker of the parents, there are not many men and women who can meet before they get married, like today, Cai Yan personally teaches the old man, it is even rarer, it can also be said to be unique, if you want to fall in love for a period of time, it is basically impossible.
"Then the Father will go and speak in a few days." Cai Yong shook his head and smiled, in the past two years, in order to help his daughter recruit a satisfactory son-in-law, Cai Yong has lost a lot of gray hair.
