Chapter 291: Marrying a wife like this is enough for this life
Watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, and the ups and downs of the temple in the temple.
Entering November, Chen Yu's life was very ordinary, reading books every day, basking in the sun with Xiaomei, and occasionally going to a private school to teach children in her spare time.
It's just that the private school has been a little unquiet these days, because I know that Chen Yu is teaching students for free, more and more people have come to sign up recently, which makes Chen Yu very annoyed.
It's like this, no one in the world wants to believe that pies will fall from the sky, but when the pies really fall, they will rush to grab them.
Why does some say that the first person to eat crabs was a warrior? Perhaps that's the reason.
Originally, there were only twenty or thirty students, but now the number has risen sharply to forty or fifty, and it seems that the situation is still developing, so Chen Yu had to set a rule in front of the private school, and the enrollment limit is sixty.
In fact, he just wanted to enlighten some poor children who couldn't afford to go to school, but he didn't expect that some rich families who loved to be cheap would also send their children over, it seems that Chen Yu still muttered about the rich family's greedy nature.
Human nature is relieved, the so-called *******, negative hearts are all readers, and this kind of thing has the same effect.
Today's private school students have just finished recruiting, but there is an unreasonable one, this person is called Cao Minzhi, yes, it is the guy who was dismissed by Chen Yu not long ago.
He picked up seven or eight villagers and ran to Chen Yu to make trouble unreasonably.
It is said that they are all children, why is there a gap between the rich and the poor? He also said that Chen Yu has a colored vision, and only accepts those with good qualifications, and does not accept mediocre ones. He also said that Chen Yu hated the rich mentality.
Anyway, all kinds of unreasonable trouble, it seems that he is taking revenge on Chen Yu.
Chen Yu ignored this completely, but the situation was far more than he thought, several villagers were angry, and they shouted in front of the private school every day to intimidate the children.
In this regard, Qian Dongfei, as a gentleman, naturally has the prestige of a gentleman, so he went to those villagers to comment.
But the villagers spoke really ugly, saying that this private school was not opened by him, saying that a woman is worthy of being a husband, saying that he is just an unsightly concubine raised by Chen Yu, and that he behaves inappropriately, so what qualifications do he have to give children.
Qian Dongfei was angry and cried by those unreasonable villagers, and did not attend classes for a whole day.
But the child is innocent, Chen Yu can't let things go on like this, so he made an appointment for a day and found Cao Minzhi for a showdown.
Cao Minzhi's request is also very simple, he just wants these children to enroll.
Having said that, it is indeed very simple to see the requirements, and it is not embarrassing at all, but Chen Yu knows that once this opening is opened, there will definitely be a large number of people who will actively enroll in the school, and will they accept it or not?
Chen Yu is kind-hearted, but he is just doing what he can, he is not the White Lotus, he has no obligation to accept the education of so many children.
So on a dark and windy night, he asked Shen Fei to mask his face and beat Cao Minzhi half-body, and the matter was resolved proudly.
Sometimes you don't need some despicable means, it seems that you can't control people, and the more kind you are, the more they think you are easy to bully.
After Cao Minzhi was beaten, Cao Yuanli, a left-hand politician in Zhejiang, quit and immediately asked the first official to find Chen Yu's theory. Chen Yu just denied it and asked them to find out who they were looking for.
Cao Yuanli also had no way to take Chen Yu, after all, these were trivial matters, and he couldn't really command the army to find Chen Yu's theory.
Since the city was shut down, Chen Yu's silk trade has decreased a lot, but fortunately, there are still thousands of acres of fertile land in the family, but they don't have to worry about the income of money.
The ordinary days finally changed one day in mid-November, and the imperial court sent a eunuch, who was in Chen Yu's study at the moment.
"Grandpa Wei, why did you come to Zhejiang in person? Isn't it the emperor's ......"
Seeing Chen Yu's crying and mourning look, Wei Bin hurriedly wiped the sweat on his face, his face twitched, and he said with an ugly smile: "Lord Chen is really joking, the emperor's body is very tough." ”
"Where does Gonggong Wei want to go, I mean the emperor won't have anything to tell me to do, right?"
Wei Bin, that Khan, you can speak well, who will you show with that dead man's expression? Isn't it a pastime?
"Congratulations to Lord Chen, the emperor appointed Er as the governor of Hebei Province to inspect and supervise Sang Yubing."
Wei Bin gave Chen Yu the holy decree and the official seal of the official robe one by one, "Lord Chen, this is the first step, grasp it well, the Liujialiu Kou in Hebei Province is not peaceful, Sang Yu and the Governor of Lu Wan attacked the thieves, and the progress was not smooth, the army on the nine sides was transferred by them, and they didn't even hit a fart, but even so, they reported the good news to the imperial court, and the emperor let you go, presumably those who are as smart as Chen Zhuangyuan should be able to see it." ”
Chen Yu nodded, "There is Father-in-law Lao Wei." ”
"Lord Chen, this is the outside, you and I don't talk to each other, our family is not Liu Jin, we won't be so wolf-hearted, how you Chen Yu treat me Wei Bin, how can I Wei Bin repay you, our family is not ambitious, just spend this life in peace." Wei Bin said earnestly.
"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, if you sit in the position of the celebrant and supervisor, you are destined to be unstable." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Our family has approved a lot of reds in the celebrant supervisor, Yang Tinghe has almost abolished all the whips and examination laws and the uniform law that you raised before, and has received the support of many officialdom, and now the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and the emperor is also a little worried." Wei Bin reminded.
After all, the reform can not be completed overnight, the erosion of the Ming Dynasty is already rotten from the bones, and he has no fundamental relationship with those gentry and bureaucratic clansmen, but they are always promoting the erosion of the Ming Dynasty.
Since Emperor Taizu set the tone of the Ming Dynasty's finances, the Ming Dynasty has been corroded little by little, being an official and a gentry in that dynasty, it is impossible not to be corrupt or exploited, after all, the small peasant system is there, the Ming Dynasty is another strong emphasis on agriculture and business, and the land is privately owned by various landlords, and all taxes are passed on to the people, and this tone is promoting the erosion of the Ming Dynasty.
If you want to reverse this situation, you or learn from the reform of Zhang Juzheng in later generations, which is what Chen Yu is doing, but Zhang Juzheng's reform is only to renew the life of the Ming Dynasty, but it has not really changed the fate of the Ming Dynasty.
If you want to completely get rid of this evil, unless capitalism rises and makes land less important, it will become impossible to exploit the people with land servitude, so that the Ming Dynasty can completely transform.
However, this road has a long way to go, but it cannot be changed overnight or in ten or eight years, so Chen Yu focused on starting with land reform, and only talked about the transformation of social forms in the future on the premise of renewing the life of the Ming Dynasty.
It is normal for Zhu Houzhao to be worried, after all, it is now the Zhu family's family, he knows that he and Yang Tinghe are not in harmony, and he knows that even Yang Yiqing in the court can't fight Yang Tinghe, so he wants to bring himself up again to fight against Yang Tinghe.
Chen Yu thanked Wei Bin for his reminder and stuffed him with a few hundred taels as travel expenses, you can't believe all this kind of person when he speaks, how can he Wei Bin repay him, you can treat it as a fart if you cut off the head of the chicken and worship the handle, Chen Yu is not a young man who has just entered the officialdom, and the experience of being an official in two lives tells him that there are no friends in politics, and only interests can connect people.
Even him, Yang Yiqing and the others are the same, the reason why they can twist into a rope like this is just because of a common goal.
After sending Wei Bin away, his heart began to get entangled, and the dinner was tasteless, and he looked like he wanted to talk and stopped.
It was Fang Xiaomei who spoke first and said to Chen Yu: "What is the so-called matter when Grandpa Wei came here today?" If you have something to say, just say it. ”
Chen Dafu, who had just taken a few sips of wine, also said: "Look at your worried face, let go of a fart." ”
"The emperor has just come to the will, and he transferred me to inspect the imperial history." Chen Yu said with a smile.
"What a good thing!" Chen Dafu's big eyes narrowed together, as if he had added a mouthful of old two pots.
"Go and monitor the thieves in Hebei Province." Chen Yu continued.
"Oh, it's a little far away from home, but you can go with peace of mind, there is Lao Tzu at home, and nothing can happen." Chen Dafu asked Chen Yu not to worry.
"Hebei Province? Rogue? Are the Liu brothers anti-thieves? Fang Xiaomei's face suddenly leaked with worry, "When you went to Guyuan, you were framed by the villain, and Yang Yiqing was there, so that you could return to Beijing without danger, you are a civil official, what kind of thief are you going to fight?" Is the emperor crazy? What can't you do if you want to enable it? No matter how bad it is, go to Jiangxi to fight bandits! The two Liu Chen brothers, plus Yang Hujun, and Qi Yan's famous army, the team has grown to tens of thousands of people, and all the states and counties in Hebei have been walked around by them, and now the army has extended to Shandong and Henan, are you a civilian official, go to death? ! ”
After Fang Xiaomei finished speaking, Chen Dafu was stunned, and then then scolded, "His mother's emperor Lao'er, I thought that I knew that my son was a piece of jade, and I knew that it was a mistake to reform my son's official, but who knew that his mother's dead nature would not change, and this official should not be appropriate!" Ugly life, you immediately take a letter of resignation, and say that you have a disease and can't go, so let them choose another good minister! ”
Chen Yu also knew that Fang Xiaomei and Chen Dafu were worried about themselves, but he needed this opportunity, and this springboard was also what he needed.
Now to make up for Ma Zhongxi's mistakes, it is not out of the consideration of making up for the merits, Hebei Province continues to receive good news, although I don't know whether it is true or false, but once Chen Yu goes, these credits will have Chen Yu's share, only in this way can Zhu Houzhao promote Chen Yu openly and honestly without being taken by the officials.
"Dad, lady, don't worry, Ma Ang and Qi Jingtong are both in the army, so there shouldn't be too much danger."
Shen Fei, who hadn't spoken for a long time, also said, "I'm with you." ”
If politics is a struggle without friends, then Shen Fei is like an independent individual who is detached from politics, and he has no selfishness towards Chen Yu.
"No, you and Miss Yang have just made some progress, don't go to lie in this troubled water."
"With me here, Mrs. and Master can rest assured, I also need some official positions, otherwise what to explain to Lord Yang, I can't kidnap his daughter like this, right? When the time comes, Lord Yang won't chop me. Shen Fei said with a smile.
Although he said so, Chen Yu was still full of gratitude.
"Chen Tingyu, you're already iron-hearted, aren't you? You didn't even plan to discuss it with us, you just came to tell us the results! Fang Xiaomei put down her chopsticks, "You go, I'm afraid that his father won't know anything after the child is born." ”
Chen Yu smiled and comforted Fang Xiaomei: "Don't worry, the thieves have been cleaned up, I will go through the motions, and I will be back soon." ”
"Chen Tingyu, don't lie to me, the Liu Chen brothers have a great tendency to grow, Yang Hu's addition has made them like a tiger, and the imperial court's army in the north can no longer be supplied, so they have begun to draw troops from the southeast! The defense of the southeast is weak, have you ever thought that if one day the Wenzhou Mansion incident happens again in Qiantang County? At that time, do I still have scissors in my hand, waiting for you Chen Tingyu to come from Hebei to save our family! ”
Sometimes marrying a smart woman is indeed a troublesome thing, too smart, you can't cheat if you want to, and the rhetoric is so sensational, you see, Chen Dafu is already looking for rattan with angry eyes.
"Lady, don't be angry." The pregnant woman is unreasonable, "Where is it like what you said, Qiantang is the seat of Zhejiang, and the imperial court will not let something happen here." ”
"Then tell me, how do you explain the attack on your Chen family in Qiantang six years ago?"
Nima, I can't talk this day, Chen Yuzhen doesn't know how to refute Fang Xiaomei, especially when there is a Chen Dafu with a stick in his hand staring at him.
"If a country lives and dies for profit, will it be avoided because of good and evil?" I can't talk about the trivial things of my neighbors, so it seems that I have to talk about the general interests of the country.
"Fuck you!" Chen Dafu took his turn with a stick, but Chen Yu was quick to do it, so he didn't get fucked, "I let your country live and die, I let you be a blessing or a curse, Lao Tzu will cripple you today, I see how the court uses you!" ”
"Dad, Dad, calm down, I'm just going to monitor the army, not to send me to death!"
"When your father doesn't understand officialdom, does he? You tell me, how did the eunuch of Hebei Province die? ”
"Huh? How do you know? ”
"I didn't know it, but now I know, stinky boy, I'll cripple you!" Chen Dafu chased Chen Yu all over the house with a mallet.
If Chen Yu hadn't threatened him with his daughter-in-law and grandson, he would never have stopped!
"Calm down!" Chen Yu roared domineeringly, startling everyone in the room.
"Ahem, listen to me." Chen Yu looked at the annoyed and angry people with satisfaction, and said a little apologetically: "I can understand the feelings of each of you, and I also know that there will indeed be risks in going here, but with Shen Feima, Ang Qi Jingtong and others, I will ensure that my risk is minimized, after all, an arrow is shot, and there are also them in front of you, right?" ”
Speaking of this, Shen Fei glared at Chen Yu fiercely.
Chen Yu glanced at Shen Fei apologetically, revealing a brother's help.
Then he continued: "You love me, I know everything, but if you think about the Wenzhou Mansion incident, do you know how many babies who are still in swaddling clothes died? How many toddlers have had their heads cut off by a wedger? Is their life so bad? Similarly, how many such events will happen in Hebei every day?
If the thieves are not at peace for a day, such tragedies will happen every day. I'm just going to supervise the army, not to fight, I'm just doing what I can to prevent this kind of tragedy from happening.
Enjoying the national tax incentives, sitting back and watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the court, this is not the life I Chen Yu wants, Dad, what did you send me to study for, do you remember? ”
"For the sake of honoring the ancestors, exploit the people." Chen Dafu touched his head and said innocently.
Nima's, when I didn't ask. Then he turned his head and asked Fang Xiaomei: "You know my life's wishes, you know that I take Yu Shaobao as an idol, I also want to save the sky, and I also want to leave a strong mark in history, so there are some things I have to do, I hope you can understand me." ”
Fang Xiaomei glanced at Chen Yu lightly, and then left with her stomach up.
After she left, Chen Dafu hurriedly came to Chen Yu, groped left and right, and said distressedly: "Are you okay?" Dad is just making a show, you kid is on your mind, how can you be a father who doesn't know, I'm just making a show in front of my daughter-in-law, you go and coax her. ”
Chen Yu's eyes lit up suddenly, "Daddy is wise!" Then he ran back to his room.
The lights in the room were dim, Fang Xiaomei sat on the edge of the bed, embroidering female red in her hand, and when she saw Chen Yu coming, she asked lightly, "When are you leaving?" ”
"Huh?"
"Don't think I can't see your father and son acting!" Fang Xiaomei sighed, "I'm not an unreasonable person, but I'm reluctant, this time you go, I can't follow you, everything is good to think about before making a decision, and before making a decision, you should also think about me and the children waiting for you at home, don't take risks." ”
Nima, this is my daughter-in-law! Chen Yu hugged her in distress.
"This is the clothes embroidered for you, it's already winter, Hebei is not better than Jiangnan, it's cold and tight over there, this leather cloak is embroidered before leaving."
If you marry a wife like this, you will be able to live this life.
