Chapter 228: Helpless Communication
Wang Bian talked about the white sheep wine, and it could be seen that the drunkard was already salivating, and he was talking about good wine and food.
On the way back to the house, Cai Jing asked puzzledly: "Son, you are really powerful, talking about the subject of the stone bachelor, you actually guided An Guogong to talk about Qin Shilang giving fragrant cakes, how do you know that Qin Shilang gave gifts to An Guogong." ”
"Didn't you tell me?" The king deliberately pretended to be stupid,
"I, when will I tell you." Cai Jing was inexplicably said by the king,
"On that day, let's go to the coal yard in Northwest Watergate, and you go to inquire and come back and tell me that this year's gifts, not jewelry, jade, and jade, pay attention to sending fragrant cakes."
Cai Jing thought about it, and it seemed that there was something going on: "But I didn't say who sent An Guogong." ”
Wang Bian laughed secretly in his heart, this kid will be smart for a while and confused for a while, but it is normal for him not to know, An Guogong must have accepted the fragrant cake, but it was not sent by Qin Minzhi, but someone gave a gift to the Anguo Mansion in the name of Qin Minzhi, such a sensitive time, such a sought-after commodity, and now it is almost the time of the year-end assessment, An Guogong is also the secretary of the ministry, which is the assessment of the officials in charge, and now in Bianjing City, who can send hundreds of catties of coal to the Anguo Mansion, who else can there be besides Qin Minzhi, An Guogong is no matter how stupid he is, can also think of Qin Minzhi first,
The two returned to the house, the lights were still on in the hall, and everyone was waiting for the king to come back to discuss matters, Lu Shenyan saw the king and pulled the king aside, and asked in a low voice: "Childe, Yu Danian quietly sent you two trucks of coal, one car you sold to Ruan Xing, and the other car where did you go, I haven't been here for two or three days, what are you tossing?" ”
"It's a gift."
Lu Shenyan almost didn't jump up when he heard it, "Give gifts, car by car." ”
"Shhhh ”
Lu Shanyan frowned and whispered: "Childe, now our house is different from the past, if you resign from the official position, you don't even have a fortune, and the tea field is closed, just point to the Jinxiu Building can't support this big family, you can't be as lavish as before, I have calculated, like our current expenses, you can live three or five years if you are tight, if you are extravagant, this person eats horses, and my housekeeper is difficult to cook without rice." ”
Wang looked at Lu Shenyan's nervous appearance, laughed and said, "I'm not extravagant, you are a clever woman who can cook rice." ”
"Whoa." Lu Shenyan belched, as if he was stuck by the king's question,
"Childe, what are you muttering?" Jiao Deyou saw Lu Shenyan pulling Wang next to him and muttering, so he asked loudly,
"Brother Jiao, it's okay, everyone is resting, let's talk about something tomorrow morning." Wang said to Jiao Deyou,
Everyone greeted each other and dispersed, and Tong Xiao pulled Wang along: "Daddy, Guan'er has been waiting for you all night, and Daddy will tell Guan'er a story." ”
"Tong Guan." When Wang saw Tong Xiao calling himself Guan'er, he unconsciously shouted, "Guan'er is here." "This kid's promise is quite smooth,
Wang was angry and funny: "What's not good, it's not called Tong Guan, if you become a big official in the future, don't say I'm your godfather." The king said angrily,
"Okay, Guan'er will say that you are my father." Tong Guan didn't understand what the king meant by this, so he happily agreed,
Wang Fang took Tong Guan back to the bedroom, thinking all the way, this is going to be a personal life, but now this is a teenage child, the name is set by the Queen Mother, it is not so easy to change, but it is not necessarily a little way, back in the bedroom Wang said: "Your name is Tong Guan, you can also, the Queen Mother said that you will decide whether to enter the palace after you become an adult." ”
"Yes, Daddy, Guan'er doesn't know when it will be." Tong Guan's eyes suddenly opened, and he seemed to be a little regretful,
Wang Bei thought for a while and asked, "What's the good thing about entering the palace, you can't marry a daughter-in-law when you enter the palace." ”
"Daddy, you don't know, you can marry a daughter-in-law when you enter the palace, I know that Yang Jian has a teacher." Tong Guan said unconvinced,
"Hey, that's an ornament, it's useless." As soon as Wang Bei's voice fell, Rou'er walked into the room with warm water for washing,
Tong Guan saw Rou'er coming in and said, "Daddy, the decorations can serve people." ”
I can't explain how to say it, and I can't explain it if I continue to talk about it, I can't talk to Tong Guan about any physiological hygiene or the like, to say that the ancients got married early, but they are not as precocious as modern children, not to mention that Rou'er is looking at herself inexplicably and seems to be asking: What furnishings,
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, go to bed early." And the king commanded,
Tong Guan pouted and said unhappily: "I have heard that it is laborious and troublesome, but I have never heard of Feihua, and Guan'er has not said much." ”
It was troublesome to communicate with the ancients, and it was even more troublesome to communicate with the ancients who were still children, which made Wang Bi more and more helpless.
This kind of helplessness next to the king has just appeared, if he is still like the restraint when he just crossed over, he will naturally not encounter this problem, although he has shown too much wisdom of ordinary people, but he is more cautious in words and deeds, not to mention that he has read too many costume dramas and some books, and he knows a little about ancient affairs, but if he completely lets go, I am afraid that no one will be able to keep up with the thinking of the king.
Wang comforted Tong Guan to go to bed earlier, but he couldn't sleep, thinking about what Lu Shenyan said, it was not without economic crises in the past, but this time it was true, firstly, there was no royal reward, secondly, there was no sponsorship from his father-in-law, and thirdly, he did not have a fortune.
Wang Bian sent an envoy to Goryeo in Liao this time, and the Goryeo grain stamps worth millions of taels of silver in his hands, and the debts of the Japanese slaves, these seem to be a lot of silver taels, although they can be used to hold the Goryeo economy hostage, but the current currency circulation and exchange are not linked, these are far from quenching the thirst of the near, and they are far from being able to be discounted.
Now it is different from the past, it will take three or four years to survive until Zhao Zhongzhen ascends the throne, and he must not die before dawn.
This night, the king was in a daze, and slept until the second half of the night, and dreamed of the moon, and the moon took the Yuejin stone, and said to himself with a smile: "Husband, now that I have this stone, maybe one day we will meet." ”
The king woke up from his dream at once, he sat up, pondering this dream of his own, it is not unreasonable, if there is really that stone under the moon, even if it is more than one day, it is also a crossing, maybe the moon has passed through several dynasties, but maybe it is a day or two, or three or five years, it is impossible to say,
Thinking of this, Wang next to him smiled helplessly, and thought about what he was thinking, and then looked at the other bed in the room, Tong Guan was sleeping Zhengxiang, presumably he didn't drink less wine yesterday, although he clearly remembered drinking and talking with Cai Xiang and Ouyang Xiu, and also remembered the intermittent thing about going back to the house, but he didn't remember when there was an extra bed in the room, presumably he forgot to ask yesterday, maybe this child is too willing to get along with himself more, so it is possible to grind Rou'er to add a bed, not to mention that Tong Guan is over ten years old, and he can't sleep with himself,
The king lay down again, and he didn't sleep much in a daze, and he was woken up by Tong Guan, and then he saw that the sky was slightly bright, and he didn't know that he was sleeping so deeply.
The father and son practiced in the courtyard as usual, according to the time, it is now six or seven o'clock in the morning, and the maids of the house got up one after another, cleaning the courtyard in and out, or preparing breakfast, and suddenly saw Lu Shanyan coming to the garden, followed by a son and an entourage,
"Childe, you practice, I'll take this son's mansion to see." Lu Shenyan greeted the king,
Wang Fang felt a little strange, but since he didn't come to find himself, maybe it was Lu Shenyan's relative, Wang Pan didn't pay attention to it, and after a while, Lu Shenyan sent the two out again, and then Lu Shenyan returned to the garden, standing there and watching Wang practice his sword,
Wang walked beside him for a trip to the Xingyi swordsmanship, and when he received the momentum, he looked at Lu Shenyan, who was so cold that he was stomping his feet: "Steward Lu has something to do with me." ”
"Yes, son, the one who came just now was to look at the house, and he said that your house costs five hundred taels of gold, which is too expensive, let me discuss it with you, and I won't wait for you to reply." Lu Shenyan didn't stop his steps,
"Huo, looking at the house so early, it's sincere enough, where are you now." The king laughed,
"I'm waiting in the hall, would you like to go over and have a look?"
"Let's go, let's see." After Wang Bei finished talking to Lu Shenyan, he turned around and saw that Tong Guan was practicing vigorously, thinking that this kid is no wonder brave in the future, and now it is indeed a good material for practicing martial arts, but it is a pity that he can't teach him this little skill.
Wang Pan thought in his heart, but he didn't stop, and Lu Shenyan came to the front yard hall one after another, the table had been set up in the hall, there were several bowls on the table, and the cook was putting a large pot of porridge on the table, this was Wang next to the people's breakfast, in addition to porridge there were also cakes, scrambled eggs and some pickled vegetables,
Originally, the family did not expect that there were guests in this hall, and breakfast was put on the table, but today's breakfast was unusual, although there was no tofu brain fritters in the Song Dynasty, but the people of the Song Dynasty also ate some water and rice for breakfast, and the king returned to the house, so naturally he personally made what he wanted to eat.
This big pot of porridge is not ordinary rice, it is the preserved egg and lean porridge that the king specially taught the chef to make, the hot and fragrant porridge is placed on the table, and the son who came to see the house looked at this large plate with his eyes, it is estimated that the two of them will not have breakfast when they look at the house so early.
Lu Shenyan stepped forward and introduced: "Master Su, this is my son-in-law." ”
The prince surnamed Su hurriedly came back to his senses, and arched his hand to the king and said: "The prince is polite, surnamed Su, yesterday I saw a notice for the sale of the mansion posted outside the door of your mansion, and today I came to disturb, I don't know if the price quoted by the prince is still negotiable." ”
Wang Bian looked at this Su Gongzi's eyes lit up, if this is a man, but he is really young and handsome, Wang Bian laughed secretly in his heart, a little girl came early in the morning to make trouble, but there is no need to debunk it, it is better to tease him, so he asked with a smile: "Discussion is not in a hurry, did Su Gongzi eat breakfast, didn't eat a piece to eat,." ”
