Chapter 8 The Arrangement of the Acropolis
Autumn, still came so silently. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In mid-October, the entire Central Plains has completely entered late autumn. Autumn is beautiful, breathtakingly beautiful, but in this day and age it is a warning effect.
The autumn wind obviously tells you that winter is not far away, winter is simply a disaster for the Eastern Han Dynasty, the cold Wei language during the Xiaoice River period is a little experience, this time the grain and materials are particularly important.
But Wei Yu is not in the mood for this, and now he is still thinking about the bald man who makes people cry and laugh.
Guanzhong accent, this is the most direct understanding of Wei Yu. He hadn't seen Lu Fengxian Zhao Zilong's bravery at all, and he didn't know what the maximum limit of force in the Eastern Han Dynasty was, so although he knew the methods of that big man, he didn't dare to guess him as a famous general.
Wei Yu is very smart, when the Han needs clothes, he chose a unique costume of the Wei family, with a big embroidery of the word "Wei", in the Hedong generation, only the Hedong Wei family can think of, Wei Yu does not want to stammer, he wants to recover, he has an intuition that he will see this person again.
"Isn't the son unaccustomed to drinking tea, who came up, so that the slave can teach him a lesson."
Xiao Ru walked over angrily and was about to take away the teacup in Wei Yu's hand.
"It's okay, I asked for it myself, in fact, these teas are so bitter that they are nothing, but the spices added make it difficult for me to accept."
As small as the boss with staring eyes, even if she is just a maid, but as a maid among the five wealthy merchants, she also knows that in this era, if the wealthy family wants to taste tea, they must add spices to show their wealth, and if they don't add these things, herbal tea is either on the roadside stall for the peddler's pawn to quench their thirst, or it is used to rinse their mouth.
Wei Yu also knew that his words were a little out of place, so he rubbed his forehead and said, "I just want to drink something lighter, how are Ziyi and Shaowen?" ”
Xiao Ru sat next to Wei Yu, "Young Master Yang is no longer in trouble, and he is still shouting to see what that strong man with one enemy and ten looks like today." It's just Young Master Cheng..."
"It's also embarrassing for Shaowen, Shaowen is not very old, he is used to living a rich life, it is normal for him to be a little afraid of life and death like this, I think it will be better after a while."
Xiao Ru smiled and the two small dimples were very even, "But it's not, Young Master Cheng, who was a little sluggish in the morning, has been pulled out by Young Master Yang, according to Young Master Yang's words, he wants to take his brother to see the heroes of the world, presumably at this time, he should be looking for the strong man from yesterday all over the city." ”
"This guy..."Wei Yu also shook his head, the personalities of his two good brothers are a little different, but to put it bluntly, they are both temperamental, so they don't pay attention to it. pinched Xiao Ru's cheek, and told her to fetch herself a blanket and sit on a stone chair in the courtyard to take a nap.
Physically, coupled with the arrival of late autumn, Wei Yu feels more and more tired, and he is still insisting on physical exercise, but now he must take a lunch break to keep his spirit full.
Xiao Ru has been sitting beside Wei Yu, and from time to time he has pulled down a blanket for Wei Yu to drive away mosquitoes, even though there are few mosquitoes in this weather.
"Sir..."
Xiao Ru's exclamation made Wei Yu slowly open his eyes, and vaguely saw Acropolis' gesture to show Xiao Ru not to disturb his rest, but he still shook his head and was about to stand up.
"Father is well."
Wei Yu saluted respectfully, and entered the house under the instructions of the acropolis, and the father and son sat down on their knees. The accompanying servants and Xiaoru had been ordered to stay outside the door.
"Xiao Ru This girl has been spoiled by a child, and my father should not suggest it."
Acropolis didn't have any expression, "It's nothing, Xiaoru will also be your concubine in the future, and it is naturally up to you to treat her." ”
"Father came here like this, but what did he tell the child?"
Facing Wei Yu's question, Acropolis did not rush to answer, reached out and poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, frowned to see that there was no spice in it, and slowly spoke without care.
"Shaowen and Ziyi have already told you about it."
Acropolis stretched out his hand to interrupt Wei Yu and motioned for him to listen.
"In fact, these are the grievances between the families, it is really difficult to be a middleman, I also learned about this from Shaowen's father, after all, those quacks said that you will wake up in a few days, and my father did not expect that his Wang family would do this.
The ancestor of the Wei clan in Weimen Hedong and the general Wei Qing, the ancestor of his Wang family is the third prince, and he has political discord with his ancestors, and Li Guang was once the righteous son of the Wang family..."
Wei Cheng did not continue, Wei Yu was digesting these secrets, the Wang family had a foothold in Hedong a hundred years earlier than the Wei family, and it was impossible for the Wang family to let go of the Wei family who came later and was the family that killed the enemy. For several generations, the two Wei Wang families have never stopped wrestling their wrists.
Later, the Wang family declined even more, and the Wei family had entered the five wealthy merchant families of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was more difficult for the Wang family to deal with the Wei family. But in this generation of the Wang family saw hope, their sister-in-law Wang Ya was both civil and military, while the Wei family only had a sick sister-in-law Wei Zhongdao, even if there was the protection of today's great Confucian Cai Yong, but in Wang's opinion, Wei Zhongdao did not live long.
A person's early death is also death, and late death is also death, even if Wei Zhongdao was quite talented before, then isn't it a good thing for me to let you take your talent to hell to sell off?
Things were not much different from what he knew, just listening to his father repeat it, Wei Yu nodded and replied.
"The child will write it down, but the child will not take the liberty of provoking disputes between the two families, just keep these things in mind."
Acropolis looked at his son with some surprise, "It's late autumn now, and all the families in Hedong are presiding over their own merchants to buy food and materials, and if they make a rash move at this time, it may lead to the collapse of the order, and at that time, our Wei clan will be the target of everyone."
So he is persecuting you on the royal tomb road, and now I am afraid..."
Acropolis felt a little guilty, but after all, he was the head of Hedongwei's family, and he was not only a father at this time, but also considered the interests of the family for the whole family.
"The father is too worried, Yu'er is already weak, the priorities of the matter can still be clearly distinguished, the so-called gentleman is not too late to take revenge for ten years, and the child will not be in a hurry."
Wei Cheng was a little relieved, this was the first time in more than ten years that he saw the shadow of a qualified eldest son from Wei Zhongdao, the so-called qualified eldest son is not about how much talent you have, how much martial arts you need, what you need is to put the family first, and what you need more is to have a heart that can forbear and a strong sense of responsibility.
"If Zhongdao is unhappy at home these days, you can go to Chen Liuwei's house and your uncle
Father's walk, it's very close to Luoyang, you can go and see your Uncle Cai by the way. ”
"No need, father, the child is doing well in Anyi, and it doesn't need to be like this."
Acropolis glanced at Wei Yu again, and wanted to say something, but he endured it again and spoke for a long time.
"Zhongdao, since you have a weak crown, you can take over the family's business, I know you are not here, but after all, you are still the eldest son of the Hedong Wei family, and these cannot be escaped."
Wei Yu waved his hand and asked, "I don't know what kind of business my Hedong Wei family is running now?" ”
"Grain, wine, iron, salt, animal husbandry, and medicinal herbs and cloth are the main businesses, and I won't say much about the other side businesses."
Wei Yu had to marvel at the great business of the five wealthy merchants during the Three Kingdoms period, and the general family economy came from the land and talents, but Wei, who was linked to business, had extended his hand to various industries.
As far as what the Acropolis just said has included people's food, clothing, and housing, as well as a large number of necessities of life, such as salt, the value of this is needless to say.
"Father only needs to divide the treasurer in Anyi City into my control, and the child will not be in charge, and will definitely learn while doing things."
Acropolis was very satisfied with Wei Zhongdao's performance today, and gave an order at the door, and then replaced the tea on the servant's low desk with wine, and had the posture of drinking three hundred cups with his son.
But as soon as the wine was served, an old butler walked in personally, and after meeting the father and son, he said: "Master and young master, there are several doctors and craftsmen outside, saying that they want to ask the young master for medical fees." ”
Wei Yu, who walked from his courtyard to the door, didn't understand when he owed these people for the consultation, Acropolis had been gone for a long time, and in Acropolis's opinion, since these doctors were looking for Wei Yu, it was not his turn to come forward.
"Ru'er, is there anything wrong with Ziyi Shaowen going out today?"
Xiao Ru followed behind, thought for a while, and replied: "Young Master, don't worry, Young Master Yang and Young Master Cheng both went out after being confirmed by the best medical craftsmen that there were no injuries." ”
"Is it possible that they broke down outside and then found the healer?"
"Impossible." Xiao Ru was categorical, "The two young masters are going out with their generals, even if they are accidentally injured, these generals will send them back to the house as soon as possible, where are those charlatans outside who have the best medical skills at home?" ”
Wei Yu was a little confused, according to Xiaoru, it was categorically impossible for Cheng Xi Yangliu to be the problem, so who would be seeking medical treatment in his own name?
"Forget it, just go out and have a look."
Let's say that the etiquette of the Wei family is still sufficient, at this time, several medical craftsmen have been taken to the side hall to wait, of course, the bald man who is more than two meters tall is naturally regarded as the bodyguard of these medical craftsmen
Cheng Xi Yang Liu also returned to the Wei Mansion at this time, and when he passed by the side hall, Yang Liu was directly blinded by the sunlight reflected by the big bald head, shouting that he finally saw a hero or something, and pulled Cheng Xi to drill into the side hall.
As for Cheng Xi?
At this time, where can Yang Liu take care of Cheng Xi's weak legs?
