Chapter 196 It turns out that I am a fool
"Uncle Yue, this is ........" Liu Renyu was about to say that it has nothing to do with me.
Sun Kuisheng cut off Liu Renyu's words and continued: "When you arrive at Jingbian Fort, you also need land, but most of the land is in the hands of Zheng Baihu and Sun Qianzong, and mine is given to you." But they refused to give you the land, and then all their families died, and then the land was in your hands. Hehe, I've been thinking about whether if I hadn't been your father-in-law and wouldn't give you the land, would I have died too. ”
"Uncle Yue, Zheng Baihu and Sun Qian always intend to incite ........ mutiny."
Liu Renyu was about to explain, but Sun Kuisheng cut off the words and said: "You don't have to explain, you are my son-in-law, of course I will pay close attention to your affairs, I know everything you say." Another thing, I heard that you exterminated a group of mountain bandits not long ago, and that group of mountain bandits is very close to Zhangjiabao. ”
After Sun Kuisheng said this, he stopped speaking, as if he had entered the old monk.
And when Liu Renyu heard what his father-in-law said, his scalp exploded, his heart was cold, and he was really shocked.
Silence, both are silent.
In the end, it was Liu Renyu who broke the silence and said: "Uncle Yue, the things you just said are all excusable, and everything I do has a clear conscience." ”
"A good sentence with a clear conscience, those who achieve great things should have a face like you." Sun Kuisheng praised his son-in-law.
"Uncle Yue, I really don't understand what you're saying."
"Renyu, whether you pretend to be confused or really don't understand, now that you and I are a family, I want to remind you that you can use extraordinary means to get what you want, such as land, in the small place of Jingbian Fort, but you will eventually fly high, and when you get to a bigger place, you will meet more powerful gentry. In my Ming Dynasty, the world belongs to the emperor, but the court is the gentry, you can't always use extraordinary means to obtain land, otherwise the matter will be exposed, how will you deal with yourself? How will your family be preserved? ”
Liu Renyu was speechless.
"The things in the world can't be solved by brute force alone, you have to be more patient and use more brains. Got it? When Sun Kuisheng said this, his face was kind and serious.
"Yes, father-in-law, my son-in-law wrote it down." Liu Renyu agreed.
"Renyu, one will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither. It's okay for you to use some extraordinary means for your own purposes, just remember not to let people hold the handle. You've done a good job so far, and you haven't left any tricks, not a single living mouth. It's just that some of you probably know too much! ”
"Uncle Yue, you just have to rest assured, the son-in-law is densely covered with spies in Jingbian, if there is any change in the son-in-law's subordinates, someone will report it at any time."
"Hehe, you can't even trust your own people."
"Uncle Yue, people are always changing."
"Listening to Renyu, I think it's right to marry my daughter to you." Sun Kuisheng said with a smile.
"The son-in-law will definitely do his best to treat her well, I am alone now, Yuyun, and the people of your Sun family are my relatives in Daming."
"Well, Renyu, I love to hear what you said. Yuyun is my youngest daughter, I regard it as the pearl of my palm, and now I am married to you. In addition to Yuyun, the youngest daughter, there are still two sons and a daughter, both of whom are older than Yuyun. That daughter is married, but it is not enough, even my two sons, alas, are some unfinished things, I am still alive, and I can take care of them, if I go into the earth, I don't know if the wealth I have saved is enough for them to squander. ”
When Liu Renyu heard Sun Kuisheng talk about his son, he said in such a tone, and he knew that Sun Kuisheng was definitely not that kind of parent.
"How is your son studying?"
"It's not very good, it's bad, and I can only score 99 points (out of 100) on every exam."
It's not this kind of parent who has been struck by lightning, but this kind of parent.
"How is your son studying?"
"It's very bad, a total score of 100 points, only 20 points."
Therefore, the image of Sun Kuisheng's son, Liu Renyu immediately found the corresponding image from the film and television residence of later generations, and the broken children of the Eight Banners who ate iron crops in the late Qing Dynasty in the Qing court drama in later generations.
Running horses, walking dogs, eating, drinking, and having fun can do anything.
So when he heard Sun Kuisheng lament his son's incompetence bitterly, he said very intimately: "Uncle Yue, I don't know where the two brothers are now, if you don't worry about them, invite them to Jingbian Fort, and I will arrange something for them to do." ”
"Okay, very good, Yuyun is really blessed by my grandson to get a husband like you." Sun Kuisheng was excited, and he slapped the table, causing a loud noise.
Seeing Sun Kuisheng excited like this, Liu Renyu couldn't help but be full of interest in how far Sun Yuyun's brother had lost.
And after Sun Kuisheng entrusted his two unsuccessful sons, he continued to open his mouth and said: "Renyu, how is the Du family cooperating with you? ”
"Du family!?" Liu Renyu saw that his father-in-law asked about the Du family again for no reason, and was stunned for a while, and then replied very uncertainly: "The Du family cooperates with me very well. ”
"Well, the Du family has a very good personal relationship with our Sun family, and in the past, when I won the spoils of war, I always paid it to the Du family."
"Oh!" It's not that Liu Renyu didn't know why his father-in-law suddenly said this.
"Master Du of the Du family has 4 daughters under his knees, and there is no male heir, of which Du Ruonan is the youngest daughter, her three sisters are all married, and the youngest Du Ruonan, Master Du no longer plans to let her marry out. Master Du plans to recruit a son-in-law. Renyu, what do you think of Du Ruonan's little girl? ”
Du Ruonan!?
Liu Renyu carefully searched for all the information about Du Ruonan in his memory for a while before replying: "Miss Du is very good, she is eloquent, shrewd and capable. ”
"Well, that's exactly what the good son-in-law said. Ruonan and Yuyun have known each other since childhood, and their relationship has always been good, you also know this. ”
When Liu Renyu heard this, he was even more cloudy, and he didn't know what he wanted to say.
"The son-in-law knows."
"Hey, look at my old bones, all broken here, but I forgot to get down to business. Renyu, Master Du asked me to be a matchmaker, saying that it was in line with your marriage to Ruonan. ”
Yes!?
When he finally knew what Sun Kuisheng wanted to say, he was so shocked that his jaw fell to the ground.
"Uncle Yue, are you kidding me?"
"How could it be to tease you, Master Du also thought about it for a long time before asking me to be a matchmaker."
"Uncle Yue, I have already married Yuyun as my wife, how can I marry again, is Miss Du willing to be a concubine? And isn't their Du family going to recruit a son-in-law? I'm married, how do I come to my door? Liu Renyu, who was extremely surprised, asked a series of questions cracklingly.
"This matter is not difficult, there is still the word flat wife in the Ming etiquette system, you just need to marry a man in the Ming media. As for the matter of going to the door, it is not difficult, the first and second sons born to you and Ruonan are surnamed Du. Sun Kuisheng stroked his beard and smiled.
"Uncle Yue, you are Yuyun's father, why do you want to be a matchmaker for the Du family?" Liu Renyu asked puzzled.
"The Du family has always had dealings with my Sun family, and if you are close to each other, it will be more convenient to do business in the future. What's the matter, Renyu, do you allow this family business? ”
"The Du family and I are cooperating, if we end this family business, it will naturally promote our cooperation to be more intimate, how could the son-in-law not allow it, but the son-in-law never expected you to be a matchmaker."
"Hehe, the Du family wants to marry their daughter to you, there are many ways, instead of letting others be the matchmaker, it is better for me to be the matchmaker myself, so that the Du family can also owe me a favor, why not."
"Uncle Yue is really powerful." Liu Renyu sincerely admired.
"Hehe, the virtuous son-in-law is not bad. Well, after saying so much today, I think you are also tired, and tomorrow you will be very busy, so I will go back, and you can rest well. Don't send me anymore. ”
After Sun Kuisheng said this, he held his head high, took a steady step, and walked out of the conference room happily.
Liu Renyu waited until Sun Kuisheng walked away, his eyes widened, and he said to himself in surprise: "I always thought that my father-in-law was just a big fool who didn't have any talent and would only take advantage of others, but now it seems that I really underestimated him, it turns out that I am a big fool." ”
