Although the first person had already thanked Zhang You in the main room, because the family of three in the third room did not know what the value of these gifts was at first, when Pearl cleaned up the box with amber autumn marks and a few other girls, and Zhang Zhuo estimated the approximate value with a shrewdness similar to that of a businessman, Zhang Yue, the son, had to go to the second room.

Different from the simplicity of the three-bedroom west courtyard and the grace and generosity of the long landlord's courtyard, the two-bedroom north courtyard has always been filled with a luxurious and wealthy atmosphere. Dongfang's family was originally from a wealthy family, and the dowry was sixty-four lifts, if it wasn't for the great damage four years ago, even if it was a long house, it would not be as good as the family foundation she had accumulated over the years.

Sitting on the carved lacquer chair with his back against the elastic ink chair, Zhang Yue looked at the beaded pastel pair bottle on the high table in the corner and the flat luodian back octagonal bronze mirror on the next case, and then glanced at the red lacquer painted gold table next to him, and looked at the pinched blue satin armor of several girls in the room, and finally saw the girl who came up to serve tea, only to see her holding a lacquered gold tea tray, and on it was a white powder kiln tea cup.

After taking the teacup, he heard a hearty laugh, hurriedly put the teacup on the small table next to him, and stood up again.

"It's just some worthless things, and the third brother is really it, and he actually sent you to go on such a trip!"

Zhang You walked in first, followed by his two sons. Seeing that Zhang Yue was about to salute, he waved his hand again and again, and he first sat down on the warm kang in the center, and said with a smile: "Chao'er Qi'er is the same as me is a rough and unliterate character, I must have brought a lot of your family in the past few years, I haven't thanked your father and mother, don't mention those kind words to me." Even if you want to mention it, then your father should come, not you! ”

Although Zhang Yueping has also accompanied his grandmother Gu and father Zhang Zhuo to meet guests, most of them are people who have a lot of twists and turns in their hearts, how have they ever seen such a straight person? After a moment of consternation, he felt kind in his heart, and immediately said with a smile: "Since the second uncle said so, I might as well tell the truth." When Daddy saw it, he said that the ivory tortoiseshell lacquerware and the like were very valuable. It doesn't matter if it's just an ordinary gift, but the second uncle will give it so much......"

Without waiting for Zhang Yue to finish speaking, Zhang You laughed, and finally said with a nonchalant face, "I have been in Jiaozhi for so many years, and I don't know how many rooms I have accumulated these things, if it weren't for the inconvenience, I would have brought more than a dozen cars." In a word, they are all local products, and if I say it's worthless, it's worthless! ”

In the face of such a statement, Zhang Yue understood that the box of gifts had been received by his family, so he no longer was verbose, but curiously inquired about Zhang You's experience in Jiaozhi over the years. Xu touched the most proud part of his heart, and immediately Zhang You gushed out, speaking of the rise, and even instinctively reached out to his waist to touch the knife, until he touched the empty side before coming back to his senses.

"The Jiaozhi natives do not accept the king's Taoism, and from time to time there will even be people who touch the guard to play the black hand, even in the middle of the night I sleep with a knife, this kind of fear of the days has passed for a long time, and it will not be changed for a while...... When I came back from that ghost place, I didn't dare to ...... with your second aunt."

"What did the master say in front of the children!"

With a scolding sound, Dongfang Clan entered through the side door at the right time and called back the words that came to his mouth. Perhaps her husband was overjoyed when he returned, but today she was dressed like a bride, with a red brocade trimmed makeup jacket on the top, and a rose purple nest flower carved silk skirt on the bottom.

Seeing her come in, Zhang You coughed dryly, immediately skipped the topic just now, asked Zhang Yue's studies with the face of an elder, and said a few words dryly, and finally shouted at Zhang Chao: "In the future, learn more from Brother Yue'er's calmness, both of you are older than him, don't always jump up and down like a monkey." If it weren't for your mother's reluctance, I would really like to bring you to Jiaozhi to train well......"

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Chao, who had been pretending to be dumb, suddenly became energetic. Zhang Yue on the side saw the two of them glancing at each other, and suddenly they both jumped to Zhang You and knelt down, and immediately guessed what kind of drama would be next. Sure enough, after the two knelt side by side, they begged their father to take them out for training sentence by sentence, the sincerity of the expressions and the pain of the words could make people think that the two of them were scholars who were familiar with poetry and books, not only martial artists who knew how to dance with knives and sticks.

Needless to say, for today's scene, the brothers don't know how many times they have rehearsed.

Dongfang on the side didn't expect the two sons to make their own decisions, and after being stunned, they showed annoyance. Because Zhang Yue, an outsider, was present, she had to suppress her anger, and reluctantly smiled at Zhang You: "Master, their brothers and sons are like this, they think about fighting and killing all day long......"

"What's so bad about fighting, killing, killing? For more than ten years as a civil official, it is not worth a battle for a military attaché! Zhang You spit out a sentence with a smile, dragged the two sons up one by one, and slapped them on the shoulders again, "It's good to have ambition!" However, there are some things that I have said that do not count, if you really have this mind, I will go and beg the British Duke on another day! I'm ugly to say that in the front, it is impossible for father and son to be in the same army, and you will have to hone it yourself in the future! ”

Seeing that the two sons were scratching their ears and cheeks with joy, Zhang You didn't look at his wife's ugly face, and pushed the two sons directly to his wife, then stood up and said: "I just remembered that I had something to say to the third brother, so I just stopped by and went with Brother Yue." By the way, the old lady said that each family will eat their own family tonight, don't forget to call Yi'er and Qingniang together, and everyone will be reunited. Also, the silk sent by the eldest brother took out some to make clothes for Yi'er. Our family is now a girl who has not been out of the cabinet, and she is always gray, and she really doesn't look like her. ”

Zhang You got up and left, Zhang Yue hurriedly said goodbye to Dongfang's clan, and immediately followed. At this moment, he has a basic understanding of Zhang You - just from the elated appearance of Zhang Chao and the two brothers and the half-blackened face of Dongfang, it can be seen that Zhang You is a reckless and bold person. Of course, if he only relied on his recklessness and boldness, Zhang You could rise so easily, and in the blink of an eye, he would have stepped into the steps of the third grade?

After leaving the East Courtyard and turning into the middle road, Zhang You took a few steps slowly and waited for Zhang Yue to follow, looked at him and said with a smile: "I just said that the civil officials have been in the past ten years, and they are not worthy of a military attaché battle, and you don't seem to have any objections?" ”

Zhang Yue didn't expect Zhang You to suddenly ask this, but at this time, he didn't have time to think about Zhang You's intentions, so he had to reply as cautiously as possible: "After a military attache wins a battle, he will be promoted to a knighthood, which is naturally beautiful, but if you only see the scenery and don't see blood and sweat, it is too shallow." Looking at military generals in times of chaos, and looking at civil officials in the prosperous era of Chengping, this is the original truth. ”

"You have great insight at a young age, haha, the third brother is so blessed that he actually raised such a son as you! This is what the British Duke said at the beginning, and this is the truth. Military attachés are fighting for wealth and nobility, and civil officials are using their years to qualify, if they are also added to the rank of knight, who can be convinced? Good boy, not bad, not bad! ”

This praise is nothing, Zhang Yue has heard a lot of praise from the parents of his classmates and even Mr. Du in the past few years, but he really can't stand Zhang You's next two slaps. So, when Zhang You was sent into the room in the west courtyard of his house, he immediately rubbed his shoulders vigorously.

Having said that, at this time, the eldest uncle and the second uncle returned to their hometown, seeing that the Zhang family is showing more and more prosperity, and there seems to be no crisis, so what does Mr. Du's letter mean?
