"Uncle Su, our second brother Wuwei is blessed! Before this Taixue is completed, he is already the body of the Haoqiang clan! ”

After the caravan came to the manor and settled properly, I followed Uncle Su and the old man with joy to visit the whole picture of this Longxi manor.

At this time, Chang'an and Qin Chong were already under the command of the manor guys, catching chickens and ducks, killing pigs and sheep all over the mountains, and preparing the most sumptuous dinner for all the horses of the caravan since they went south to Jiangdong.

All of a sudden, the whole manor was full of chickens and dogs, and the voices were boiling, and there was a pastoral atmosphere of laughter and laughter.

"Yes, it's much better than Qingfengze Inn! In the future, if the lord is willing, all the family members of the Yi family in Khotan can all move to this Jiangdong. Isn't it nice to have beautiful mountains and clear waters! ”

Uncle Su smiled kindly, compared to the long yellow sand and barren land in the northern part of the Western Regions, this Jiangnan is picturesque, and it is simply a fairyland on earth.

"My mother definitely doesn't want to come! And grandma, she can't afford such a long-distance toss! And those relatives in the royal city of Khotan, hey! I can't leave them either! ”

The family moved east, and Uncle Su could think of it! I'm worried that my grandfather will be so hot in the future that he will really make such a decision.

"The young master is kind-hearted, if this is the case, the fate between our master and servant will be broken in this life! Hehe, there are nine out of ten guys in the team, and their parents are in the northern part of the Western Regions! ”

Uncle Su sighed, and while he was talking, the three of us had already walked out of the manor and came to a hill at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain.

The southeast is like a silver belt to the east to the river, and the towering blue-gray city wall of Jiankang is in full view.

"Uncle Su, I really don't think there is any benefit in this south, it is far less enjoyable than the vast sky and high ground in the northern land of our Western Regions! Of course, this beautiful woman in Jiangdong is unparalleled in the world! ”

Thinking of Liu Nan'er, the seventh sister of Xiapi Liufu, I couldn't help but feel my heart pounding.

On the day the caravan arrived at Longxi Manor, the grandfather and grandfather led several senior brothers to personally escort the seventh sister of the Liu family to Jiujiang Mansion in Tanzhou to worship and sweep the tomb of her deceased husband.

In the past few years, whether in Luoyang or Jiankang, the two brothers of Chang'an and Wuwei have been supported by Mrs. Liu.

As elders, grandparents and grandfathers also want to express their hearts in such a way.

"Young master, the thousands of acres of mulberry fields under this mountain are the property of our Longxi Manor!" The elder pointed to the flat fertile field at the bottom of the mountain and proudly introduced it to me.

It has not yet reached the solar term of the planting grass, the endless paddy fields are sparkling, and the mulberry forest on the bank of Longxi is green and verdant, like a cyan python, creeping between the ridges of the water town.

"Uncle! My family has so much land! ”

"Hey, young master! To tell you the truth, among the wealthy families around Zhongshan, our Longxi Manor is still just a small family! At present, there are only about 200 households and less than 1,000 farmers who have moved here from all over the country to rely on our family, and they live in those villages under the mountain! ”

I looked down the mountain following the old uncle's direction, but I saw that there were more than a dozen large and small villages in the high slopes of the paddy fields, which should be the living places of those villagers.

"My family is still a small family? How big should that big family be! "I was amazed.

"The power of wealth and goods is enough to rival the country, that is, the princes of one side! Like Mrs. Liu's house in Xiapi! Uncle Su said succinctly.

"The princes and ministers above the court are all from such families, and the seat of Emperor Sima must not be easy to sit on, right?"

"What the young master said is right, the minister is strong and the monarch is weak, and now this is the case in the Jiankang court, the affairs of the court and the central government are basically in the hands of the two major lords and scholars, Wang and Xie, and the emperor is an ornament!"

The elder family has lived under the Jiankang Imperial City for many years, and he also has a lot of understanding of the national conditions and customs here.

"Do you want to learn from Cao Cao, Duke Wei was the Son of Heaven to order the princes? The Hu people in the north are eyeing each other, and our Han court is still so tormented, so we are not afraid of the danger of losing the country again! I said indignantly.

"Young master, don't worry about the affairs of the court, ordinary people! Look over there! "The elder invited me.

There is an official road leading to Jiankang East City at the foot of the mountain, and there are several large-scale workshops with blue bricks and gray tiles on the side of the official road connected to the Longxi Manor.

There are also some craftsmen and small merchants' grass huts, which have the prototype of a manor dirt street.

"The largest thatched cottage is our brewing tank, and our master is from Jiuyuan County, Hexi. The multigrain sake they produce using the brewing process of Northland milk wine is mellow and strong, and the market in Jiankang City is in short supply! Hehe, I want to add a few more wine cellars, and this matter will have to wait for the master to come back before making a decision. ”

At a glance, the old man knew that he was a loyal and reliable elder, and it was natural for his grandfather to hand over such a large family business to this old man to take care of it.

"There are also oil mills, car mills, silk reeling and weaving workshops, salt and iron trading companies, and now in our manor, there is no need to purchase food, clothing, housing and transportation from outside!"

"Master Che is living so freely, my brother is envious! I'm going to make a suggestion to the master, let's swap it! You're in charge of business, and I've come here for a few years of relaxed and happy life. Hahaha! ”

After listening to Uncle Che's story, Uncle Su said with vinegar on his face. The two of them have followed their grandfather for many years and can be called right-hand men.

"Master Su, this is to rob my brother's job! Hehe! You know I'm not good at business, and you're still running on me! I haven't been back to my hometown for many years, so I just took this opportunity to go back to Jiuquan to say goodbye to my hometown! ”

Uncle Che, the old man, let out a long sigh of relief, showing dissatisfaction.

Such a mess that no one wanted to take over five years ago, he lived up to his mission and worked hard to achieve today's atmosphere, but I didn't expect Uncle Su, an old man, to be a little red-eyed, it was really immeasurable.

"Hahaha! Che Ye, the jokes just now are all jokes! Let me stay in this palm-sized grange all day long, manage eating, drinking, and Lazar, it is better to take my old life! Don't be angry, brother! ”

Seeing that his jokes made the old guy angry, Uncle Su hurriedly stepped forward and apologized.

"Since it's a joke, our brother will drink and talk tonight! Ha ha! "Uncle Che is also a heroic person, and when he saw Uncle Su's repentance, he immediately went downhill and stopped pursuing it.

"Your own wine, that's not open to drinking, you can't be stingy when your old car arrives!"

"How much do you want, the wine brewing of the old man and the young master's family, as long as the master's family is not outside, it has a relationship with me, the family in charge!"

The two old fellows laughed and grudged, and kicked the ball at the feet of me, the young master.

The day after our caravan arrived at Longxi Manor, the second brother of our family's Tai student, Wu Wei, hurried back from the Tai Academy in Jiankang City.

Dressed in a white wide coat and a belt, his head is wrapped in a black nylon scarf, and he is eight feet long, and the jade tree is in the wind.

Inheriting his grandmother's Tocharian bloodline, Wu Wei has a pair of sky blue, deep eyes, and a tall nose bridge.

When he left Qingfengze Home, he was still a boy in the general corner, but now seven years have passed, and he has grown into a heroic and promising young man! How happy my mother would be to see her!

Brothers don't know each other anymore, after a big brother and Wu Wei, our two brothers don't know how to say a thousand words, only to hug their heads and cry to relieve their sorrows.

The hometown specialty food that my mother entrusted me with had long been rotted and discarded in the road, and only the jade pendant sachet that Langol's cousin gave to Chang'an and Wuwei was left in my hand.

"Langor, hehe, cousin is still so fat, right? Her appetite is so good! When I was in my hometown, I often accompanied her to the back kitchen in the middle of the night to steal meatloaf to eat! ”

Wu Wei cherished the sachet around his waist, and couldn't help but smile dumbly when he remembered the past.

"Wu Wei, there are two big things to tell you, which are related to your net worth and happiness. A good thing, a bad thing, you want to hear that? ”

Looking at the proud second brother Wu Wei, I suddenly wanted to joke with him, and I was ready to hide the fact that Lan Guoer had become a phoenix nirvana and turned into a stunning beauty from Wu Wei, making him miserable for a while.

This kid's life is too smooth, and he needs to kill his sharpness.

"Woe and blessing depend on blessing and misfortune lurk! Big brother, good or bad, but it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

Chang'an, Wu Wei and I walked hand in hand among the strangers outside the grange, and from time to time passing by doormen and farmers bowed to us.

"Second brother, you have made a family affair with Liu Keer, the eighth daughter of the old lady Liu in Xiapi! You're going to get married soon! In addition, this autumn you will pay homage to the position of Pixian Cheng! The second brother is happy! Congratulations! ”

Brother Chang took the lead and told all the good things in one go.

"I know that! The husband of the fifth sister of the Liu family is a classmate with me, and he told me! But I still want to thank the third brother for the good news! In the future, if there is anything to do with the second brother, the second brother will never give up on the sword mountain and the sea of fire! Hehe! For example, the nine sisters and ten sisters of the Liu family, hehe! ”

Wu Wei put his arm around the shoulders of the third brother of Chang'an and said with a smile, looking at the intimate appearance of the two younger brothers, my heart was extremely gratified.

"Second brother, let's do it! Your two aunts, the younger brother wants to take it! One wife and one concubine, what does the brother think? ”

Brother Chang'an doesn't eat the fireworks of the world on the surface, but secretly has such real thoughts.

After hearing this, I couldn't even stand up straight with my waist, so I could only use my sword and pestle to the ground.

"This this, this! Hehe, it seems that something is wrong, in fact, the second brother, I also have such a wish! It's just that the Liu Mansion is not an ordinary family, and it needs to be considered in the long run, haha! Let me think about it again! ”

Wu Wei finally peeled off the disguise of his scholarly style, and the three of us brothers completely opened our hearts, just like we did in the practice field behind Qingfengze Academy in our childhood, and spoke freely without scruples.

"Wu Wei, my mother asked you to go back with us this summer." I feigned concern.

"Big brother, Wu Wei has been away from home for seven years, and today he has finally succeeded! My biggest wish is to be reunited with my mother to honor the filial piety of the son of man! How can this Jiankang and the Western Regions in Khotan be separated by thousands of rivers and mountains, every time I miss the sleepless night, I can only look at Beidou from afar to support my sorrow! The eldest brother is often by his mother's side, and the eldest brother can't understand such a mood as the elder brother! Ay! Enough of these days in the south! Thinking back to the time when our brothers were in Qingfengze Home, how happy it was! ”

Wu Wei said indignantly, it seems that today's success and fame will bring back the beauty, and it will not be able to compensate for his homesickness.

"Second brother, if you don't return to your hometown after success, it's like walking at night in brocade clothes, let your mother see your weather today, all the hard work is worth it!"

Chang'an comforted, in fact, he told me privately that he didn't want to cultivate this Taixue in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and just wanted to go back to his hometown Qingfengze and let me intercede with him at my grandfather's place.

"I've had enough! If my mother doesn't come to Middle-earth with me this time, the county officials of the Southern Dynasty won't do it! Wu Wei shouted childishly.

"Wu Wei, don't you want to know why your mother asked you to go back?" I asked maliciously.
