Chapter 180: The So-Called Relatives (Part II)
From Zhang Yufang's words. Zhang Fan can feel it very obviously. I didn't make any mistakes about the changes that had taken place in the house. This is indeed a change. With this in mind, he looked at Zhang's Mansion again. The scenery has not changed. There are no changes to the furnishings. Even the colors are still the same. Dead things can be changed. Maybe it's man-made, maybe it's natural. However, dead things are dead things after all. They can't change people's hearts.
Think about what happened just now. Zhang Fan realized that the reason why he felt that Zhang Fan had changed. It's changed on the inside. It's all about living people. Since beating him this time, he has entered the Zhang Mansion again. All the people of Zhang's Mansion who met him still groveled to themselves as before. But each of them exuded a different expression on their countenance. This kind of expression Zhang Fan is actually very familiar with. When he visited the homes of the important ministers of the court in the capital. Their subordinates also had such expressions. To use a somewhat over-the-top analogy. It's like the palace ladies and eunuchs in the palace. Although what they do on weekdays is also the work of serving. But they are different because of the identity of the master they serve. The value of the self-perceived value is different. And that's exactly what happened. It's like Yan Song back then, or today's high arch. They are all members of the power generation. But this is such a powerful person. If there is something bad or bad, I handed it in front of other people and wanted to pass it on to the emperor. still rely on these eunuchs who are servants in the palace. That's a good thing to say. This is the so-called seven officials in front of the prime minister's door; It's hard to say. This is what the common people often call dog fighting human power.
Zhang Fan doesn't know much about his uncle. But he could also see that Zhang Yufang would not ignore this. Hence the thought here. The descendants of the Zhang Mansion are indeed a little different. But there was no arrogance on their faces. It's just a little bit of pride. But Zhang Yufang is the head of the family again. But the discipline of his own relatives is not too severe. And this is what Zhang Fan is most worried about. In the capital, Zhang Fan has seen many dismissed officials precisely because of the indulgence of their families. Gradually, that situation was created.
However, this is also the most difficult part to solve. Who can not have a family member or something. It's nothing to use your identity to brush up your prestige. But if it is for the sake of capital and for one's own benefit. That's not right.
Zhang Yufang's words just now also gave Zhang Fan another understanding. Oh, yes. He was right. It was Zhang Fan himself who put this question on it. And Zhang Yufang's words just now made him not worry too much. Although Zhang Fan did not nod explicitly. But I also agree with this statement very much in my heart. Although he can be regarded as a good person who is tolerant and generous. But there is no such thing as "I don't kill Beren." but Beren died because of me". His consistent advocacy is to wipe his own ass. If you poke a leak yourself, you have to make up for it yourself. But he also thought about it secretly. In case something big happens. When a loved one asks for help from him. Can you really put your mind at ease?
These are not good intentions. Zhang Fan didn't want to think about it. But he didn't want to. This is also just in case.
However, Zhang Fan's current experience is not in case something happens in the future. What should I do? He's thinking about it. Since Zhang Yufang said so. This possibility must have been taken into account. Then he must also solve and eliminate this hidden danger that may exist in the future.
"Uncle's words are good. But the little nephew ......" Zhang Fan didn't know how to continue. “…… After all, this is caused by the little nephew. That's ......"
"You don't have to say much." Zhang Yufang interrupted Zhang Fan's words. He already knew what Zhang Fan wanted to say. "The source is Fan'er, you are good. But the cause is not a bad thing. To know. As soon as you arrived in Yangzhou that day, you came and said that you were my nephew. And he is also a court official. Uncle, it's too late for me to be happy. How could it be that you could be blamed. Someone in the family can get into the office. That's what our ancestors of the Zhang family have been looking forward to for a long time. Compared to such a little bit of the end of the slight. There is how it can be compared.
"You must think that Uncle I have always been a businessman. Whether it is doing things or doing business, it is very fair. And now because of you, something bad has happened to the future of this Zhang family. Blame yourself. But. Have you ever thought about it? You didn't force us to do it. It's like you can't kill someone with a knife because of a person. Don't look for the murderer. Instead, blame the knife for hurting people because it was too sharp. It's one thing to have something in your hands. Whether you want to use it yourself or not is another matter. ”
These words of Zhang Yufang. The truth is not deep. It's very simple. Zhang Fan didn't understand. But Zhang Yufang's words only solved one of his problems. He now knew that his uncle was not to blame him. Even if something does happen in the future. Zhang Yufang will not blame him for bringing something because of his arrival. However, there is another issue that Zhang Fan is most concerned about. How can we avoid that in the future?
Zhang Fan is not a person with a very strong desire for power. He didn't really want to climb up. He didn't care that his family might smear him with some dishonorable color and block his path to promotion. If it is because of your own reasons, you can make the life of your family and relatives better. Zhang Fan is very willing.
However, now Zhang Fan still has a grand wish in his heart. He wanted to change history. This desire necessitated that he had a lot of rights. You must not be seized by your enemies who are alive now and in the future. And Zhang Fan didn't have a bad impression of others because of this kind of thing, which was very ridiculous and unnecessary.
Now. Zhang Fan can already be sure that his uncle Zhang Yufang understands him completely. I won't embarrass myself. But what should the rest of the Zhang family do? Is it also the same to yourself now? Speak to them plainly. Not to mention that this method is a fool. The most important thing is that it will make people feel a sense of distrust of him. This is not what Zhang Fan wants.
"What my uncle said, my nephew understands. Uncle is also a reasonable person. Fan'er is very grateful to her uncle. Zhang Fan said with a smile on his face. But then. He frowned again. "But ......" the rest of the words. Zhang Fan didn't know what to say.
Seeing Zhang Fan's confusion. Zhang Yufang was also stunned for a while. He couldn't figure out that he had already spoken so thoroughly to Zhang Fan. And he still has no resentment. But then. Zhang Yufang also understood what kind of confusion made Zhang Fan unable to explain clearly to himself. Just now when he and Zhang Fan were on the return carriage. It was for this reason that he did not talk to Zhang Fan about the situation at home. And now. The question has been raised. How could Zhang Yufang ignore it.
"Fan'er doesn't have to say anything more." Zhang Yufang stopped what Zhang Fan was about to say. Said. "What is Fan'er worried about? Your uncle and I understand. He looked at Zhang Fan and said.
"Uncle understood." Zhang Fan asked. In fact, he was not surprised that Zhang Yufang knew the reason for the incident. But now Zhang Yufang told him these things so frankly. Zhang Fan was still a little surprised.
"Not bad." Zhang Yufang said. "I understand exactly what Fan'er means. Isn't it all because of the rest of the family? ”
Zhang Yufang's words are to the point. Zhang Fan naturally couldn't shake his head to say no. This in addition to making him feel like a hypocrisy. It doesn't solve any problems at all; When he also didn't nod his head in affirmation. Obviously, today's Zhang Fan can't do that kind of degree of non-recognition of his six relatives. He still felt that it hurt his feelings.
Zhang Yufang looked at Zhang Fan's appearance. I know he's struggling. However, he didn't intend to ask Zhang Fan to give him an answer. After all, he didn't count in his heart. He also knew that this kind of question was not good for Zhang Fan to say clearly in front of him. But he didn't need to. It wasn't something he guessed. Through their own observations these days. He already understood what things were all about.
But knowing the cause doesn't mean you can think of a solution right away. Especially when facing their own families. But for Zhang Yufang. He attaches great importance to Zhang Fan and his achievements. He vaguely knew what kind of role Zhang Fan was playing in the DPRK now. And Zhang Fan will achieve even greater achievements in the future. He didn't want to cause any trouble for Zhang Fan because of anything that could have been avoided. Although it may sound like a bit of a trivial. But Zhang Yufang is such a person. Behave in a proper manner. Doing business is also a duty. Although I can't guarantee that I won't make a mistake and take half a step. But what can be avoided is absolutely avoided.
"Fan'er. I know. Some words are hard to say. Zhang Yufang looked at Zhang Fan and said. Uncle didn't mean that there was anything hard to say or something that had to be heard. But I also understand how you feel. You see, that's good. You don't trust your uncle. ”
"It's nature." Zhang Fan didn't know why he asked. But it was still science that said. "Fan'er naturally believes in his uncle."
"Then Fan'er will put this matter on his uncle." Zhang Yufang patted his chest and said. It looks very sure. "Uncle, I'm going to talk about these things. There are some things that are inconvenient to say. Uncle, is it inconvenient for me to talk about it? ”
"In that case. The little nephew doesn't have to worry about it. Zhang Fan also said with a smile.
"Alright. You've just come back today. The road must have been very tiring. In the evening, I will go to Liu Shan for a banquet. Let's go and rest now. Zhang Yufang also said with a smile.
"That being the case. The little nephew retired. Zhang Fan spoke. Turn and leave.
looked at Zhang Fan's departing figure. Zhang Yufang felt very pleased. It was not that he had never seen high-ranking officials and dignitaries. But they didn't think about what Zhang Fan was worried about just now. As if it were a matter of course. And Zhang Fan can do that. Although it seems a little indecisive. But actually. This is what a person who wants to be on top should show.
