Chapter 30: The Melancholy of the Taiyuan Wang

In the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Wang family had a prominent reputation among the Langya Wang family and the Taiyuan Wang family, but now compared with the Langya Wang family, there is still Wang Dao's support, and the Taiyuan Wang family seems to be a little powerless. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Taiyuan Wang's East China Sea Taishou Wang Cheng is three years older than Wang Dao, the weak crown is well-known, and then all the way to the clouds, after crossing the river, because of its simple and tolerant way of being an official and pure heart and few desires, good at talking about the personality charm was elected as the first scholar in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

It is not enough to be the first person to have a family background and talent, and his demeanor and temperament are also first-class.

In short, Wang Cheng alone made the Taiyuan Wang family among the top gate valves in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, but when it comes to his grandfather Cao Wei Sikong and his father is the Taishou of Runan in the Western Jin Dynasty, this foundation seems to be more prominent than the Langya Wang family.

However, it was such a famous Jiangzuo who died early at the age of forty-six, leaving behind his only son Wang Shu at the age of fifteen.

Wang Shu inherited his father's title of Marquis of Lantian, served his mother, and was diligent and thrifty, he was a little embarrassed to say, but at the age of 27 this year, it was the first time for him to come to Cailantai alone.

On weekdays, because he is the Marquis of Lantian of the Taiyuan Wang family, the children of the family will always bring him to the party, but his sense of existence is like an incense burner in the corner, quietly cheering, listening quietly, eating food quietly, even if the people in the banquet have argued, the people who have eaten cold food are even more excited to step on the table and drag others around in circles, only he is also holding the bowl safely and treating the food meticulously.

His wife often laughs at him, the poor are stupid and greedy, do you know that Langya Wang's homely meal is better than our lord's?

Wang Shu is stupid, and he can marry a wife thanks to his own life experience, which can be regarded as a father's blessing in heaven.

Compared with Daddy's weak crown and fame, Wang Shu is nearly thirty years old, and he is still a family squatting, and he is still very content with this simple and poor life, except that he always can't stand the temptation of food and has to attend many banquets.

For a gourd like him, he naturally has no way to be famous in the banquet.

In previous years, when he didn't marry a wife, he wouldn't care about fame and making money, but unfortunately he was a dutiful son, and his mother wanted him to marry a wife and have children, so he married, and then, this year, he had a son.

The birth of a little life reminded him of the chickens and ducklings raised in the yard, and he would wrap these small animals in cotton robes in the house in winter, so in the face of the little life with his own blood and bones, Wang Cheng cried for ten years after the death of his father.

Although his wife would mutter, as she stroked his and the child's heads, "People always say that you are a little demented, and I thought so at first, but now it seems that you are really innocent." ”

Wang Shumune, he couldn't guess whether his wife praised him or laughed at him, but after having a son, he felt that his life had just begun.

He named his son Tanzhi, hoping that his son would learn to deal with it calmly whenever he faced it in the future, and he happily stewed chicken soup for his wife, and had already thought about the names of the second and third children, since the eldest son was called Tanzhi, then the second child should be called Tanzhi......

His wife said to him angrily: "If you are doing nothing like this and not looking for an official position, the annual ration of the Marquis of Lantian is not enough for you to feed Tanzhi." ”

As soon as he thought of going out, Wang Shu couldn't help but be depressed, now he can eat enough to have leisure to read and Xuanxiu thanks to his father's shadow, he is not good at socializing, his heart is real, and his temperament is still restless, but he still has the cheekiness to drag his father's old friend relationship and ask for an errand of Wanling Ling.

The children of the family were naturally very surprised that Wang Shu was willing to go out, but they didn't think that within a few days of this Wanling order, it was rumored that Wang Shu blatantly accepted gifts from his subordinates, and also purchased furniture.

As soon as this incident came out, Director Wang, who was recuperating from his illness, sent someone to tell Wang regardless of his low profile: "After the famous family, the son of a famous father does not have to worry about Yulu, and it is very inappropriate to ask for property from his subordinates." ”

Director Wang said so tactfully, he naturally had the intention to help Wang Shu, but he didn't think that Wang Shu was coming for money, after all, his family was still young, and he couldn't eat enough, and he replied angrily, "If you are satisfied, you will naturally give up." ”

His idea is to finish this money, save enough money, and no longer accept a penny in the future, and learn from his father to do his best for the people and the country.

It is common and low-key for officials to receive gifts from their subordinates, but he is the only one who has received such fanfare, but he only thinks about receiving the gifts that others have received for officials for twenty or thirty years at one time.

So after knowing his thoughts, Director Wang asked Cangtian speechlessly, and held back for a long time before saying, "After the famous father, he is really frank and different." ”

The gifts were received, and the furniture was done, but the official position was still lost.

Wang Shu was ready to go back to Jiankang's house to squat, anyway, he received these gifts and saved a sum, he was not afraid that Tanzhi would be hungry, but he still had to beg in front of the heavenly master, after all, he could be regarded as tarnishing his father's reputation.

Thinking of his beloved father, Wang Shu became depressed again.

Wang Shu, who had been hungry for a few days while confessing in front of the portrait of the Heavenly Master, decided to take Tanzhi to Cailantai to enjoy the food, because Director Wang told him that Xie Jiasanlang had often haunted Cailantai recently.

Xie Jiasanlang Xie An, Wang Shu is like thunder, in the early years Huan Yi said, "Here the wind god is beautiful, and Wang Donghai will not be reduced later", Wang Donghai naturally said Wang Shu's father Wang Cheng.

But Huan Yi just said that Xie An's temperament is indifferent, and he may grow up no worse than Wang Cheng, and this praise and encouragement will become more and more deviant from the topic as Xie An's prodigy becomes more famous, such as "Xie Jia Saburo looks a little similar to Wang Donghai", "Not only is the aura similar, but the eyebrows and eyes are also a little similar, hahaha Xie Shangshu, it's not like San Lang is not like you", "Compared with Wang Donghai's son, San Lang has more of the demeanor of Jiangzuo's first scholar when he was a teenager"......

In this way, Wang Shu no longer cares about the world, and he also keeps Xie An firmly in his heart.

It's a pity that he attended the banquet together several times, and this San Lang was always in the stars holding the moon, and he was squeezed in the corner, so he couldn't see it clearly.

How similar is this? Is it eyebrows or temperament?

Today, Wang Shu finally waited for Xie An in Cailantai.

It is indeed very similar to his father, Wang Shu recalled carefully, his father in his memory was like Xie An at the banquet, doing his own thing very indifferently, and then he could always make others unable to look away, although Xie An was still young, but his eyebrows had begun to show the handsome outline of a young man, mainly because of the sense of distance that was just right from the world, which made people feel that this young man was always overlooking others from a high place.

But this distance is not disgusting, but because of the faint smile on the corner of the young man's mouth, it makes people feel kind.

Wang Shu's heart was finally depressed, "Can San Lang talk to me alone?" ”

Xie An glanced at Tanzhi in his arms, and said to Runtang: "Give Lantian Hou a piece of milk on the table, and record it in my account." ”

"It's still Saburo who thinks thoughtfully." Wang Shu's mind was a little dizzy, and he didn't care about Xie Yi and Xie Yi, who were sitting with Xie An, and other officials whose names he couldn't remember, his heart was mixed with excitement and inexplicable hope, and he didn't treat Xie An as a child at all.

Because Xie An has just entered the Ink Soul List, and he entered the Ink Soul List at the age of ten, compared to his father Wang Chengqiang's fame, the young man in front of him has unlimited prospects.

No wonder Director Wang told him, "Although he is small, you can trust him, because he will be my student." ”

Wang Shu is a solid-eyed straight intestine, and the face-to-face conversation with Xie An is only half a cup of tea, so he no longer hides his intentions, and says truthfully to Xie An: "Although I am now a subordinate official of Lord Situ, he asked me to follow you." ”

If it is said that there is love at first sight between men and women, then he can be regarded as a heart-to-heart at first sight for Xie An, right?

Xie An was teasing Tanzhi to drink milk, and when he heard him, he was neither excited nor surprised, but asked lightly: "So, you are the one who took me to see him in the West Garden?" ”

Seeing Xie An's steady appearance as Mount Tai, Wang Shu's heart was swept away, and he nodded hurriedly.

Xie An looked at the sky, it was just past noon, and he did not delay his trip.

The West Garden is naturally near the Yecheng in the west of Jiankang, I heard that the garden is full of mountains and forests, there are many birds and beasts, it is Wang Dao's private garden, so private that even Mrs. Lei can not live permanently, just like Wang Dao's study, it belongs to his personal small world.

Xie An decided to ride a horse, so he still had a horse in Cailantai, and it was Shen Jin who helped him find something suitable for him to ride, and Shen Jin also wanted to follow, like a loyal dog, Xie An wanted to touch his head, but in front of his father and brother, he still held back.

"Take Tanyuki with you?" Xie An saw that Wang Shu was still holding a baby when he came to work, and the rumors of this dead house foodie were really true.

Wang Shu said very seriously: "Seeing the world with a frank view, after all, it is the West Garden." ”
