Chapter 324: Royal Trivia
Chen Chunmei belongs to the kind of girl who is anxious about her surname, and she just thought of reading and writing, and she didn't let the boy leave after eating. Light an oil lamp and let the boy teach him to write.
This is a very impolite thing in the eyes of adults, and Dad immediately reprimanded: "Sister Chun! You don't ask the little brother of the Xu family if there is something wrong, like you, and you are not afraid that people will say that we don't have a tutor! ”
Chen Chunmei smiled: "Grandpa, what is a tutor?" ”
Daddy was so angry by her words that he trembled. But the old man was like this, he was angry again, looking at Chen Chunmei's bright smiling face, and finally chose to suppress his anger: "Let Brother Xu go back, I'll teach you how to write!" ”
Chen Chunmei is a child, and her father has taught her a few times, but her father's old-fashioned method really annoys her. Immediately walked over and handed the crutch to the father: "Grandpa! Am I not afraid that you will be tired? Lang Zhong let you have a good rest, you can rest and go! ”
The boy spoke: "It's okay grandpa, it's okay for me to go back, I can't sleep so early." ”
Qin Xianglian came up to help her father: "Dad, don't worry about the children's affairs so much, just let them play for a while, it's okay." ”
Only then did Dad get up, slowly walked towards the house, walked halfway and turned around and said, "Xianglian, see if there are any people here who have entered Beijing, ask someone to send a letter to Shimei to report safety." Or ask if there's any news of him. ”
Qin Xianglian nodded: "Hey, I know." ”
Why doesn't she miss it in her heart? When the first Lang Zhong said that her father couldn't go on the road, she also looked for the second one, and when the second one said that she couldn't do it, she found the third one. What is she drawing?
Daddy's words aroused Qin Xianglian's sadness, Chen Shimei was just a concern in the past, but after Chen Yuan went back last time, his thoughtfulness towards Qin Xianglian had already made Qin Xianglian feel what a real husband was.
Xianggong is the man who is willing to bear the burden of life with him, he will not let himself be tired, he will wipe away his tears for himself when he cries. Qin Xianglian is a woman who is easy to satisfy, thinking of this, the corners of her mouth smiled, with a bitter smile.
The three children on the side did not notice the expression on their mother's face, Chen Chunmei was very excited to bring a pen and paper, and the boy wrote six beautiful words on the paper "Chen Chunmei" and "Brother Chen Dong".
Brother Chen Dong looked at it and said happily: "I can also write these words!" ”
Chen Chunmei slapped him: "Don't make noise! You call it writing? Your word is a dog! ”
Brother Chen Dong raised his head quite unconvinced: "Who said that?" Grandpa said I was good at writing! The second dog next door is older than me and can't write names! ”
Chen Chunmei didn't pay attention to him, and just said to the boy: "Why are you writing so beautifully?" ”
The boy put the pen down slowly: "Actually, it's also simple, see the stroke order and structure clearly, and write carefully a few more times." Come, I'll teach you how to hold a pen first. ”
The two eldest children quickly entered the role, and Chen Dongge was not affected by them in the slightest, and after finding that their game was not suitable for him, he decisively picked up the sword given to him by Chen Yuan and fought all over the room.
Qin Xianglian was cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks while thinking about Chen Shimei.
It wasn't until the hostess of the house came back that she woke up from sweet memories.
"Sister-in-law, come into the house and sit down for a while, I'll pour you a glass of water." Qin Xianglian was very polite, but the widow did not refuse.
She has walked a long way, she is really a little thirsty, there is no hot water bottle in this era, and she has to go back to boil her hot water if she wants to drink it, and she is naturally very happy to be able to drink it in Qin Xianglian.
The boy didn't stop after seeing his mother, and then taught Chen Chunmei to write the names of his family, and now he has written Qin Xianglian.
Qin Xianglian brought a bowl of hot water and handed it to the woman: "Eldest sister, this child in your family is so good, I don't know how you taught it, these two in my family can't do it, I know how to play crazy all day long, and I can't sit down and be quiet for a moment." ”
The child is obviously the pride of that woman, and after Qin Xianglian talked about this topic, a smile appeared on her face: "Hey, I put all my thoughts on this child, counting on him to have a future in the future, and I am worthy of his dead father." ”
Saying this, the woman suddenly looked at Qin Xianglian: "By the way, sister, I seem to have heard that your man's name is Chen Shimei, right?" ”
Qin Xianglian nodded: "Well, I told you." ”
The woman's face suddenly looked very strange: "This time someone sent a message, let the scholars in the city go to the capital to catch the exam, today I met a person from Bianjing, he said, those scholars are studying with the prince for the exam this year, no one can win the champion, because the champion must be a person named Chen Shimei, I heard that the person is going to be recruited by the emperor to be a concubine, I don't know if it's your family?" ”
Qin Xianglian's face changed in an instant! The emperor recruited him to be a concubine, if it was really his own man, what did it mean Qin Xianglian knew very well! She forced a smile to herself: "No, how can he have that life, he must be the person with the same name." ”
The woman nodded: "No, this person is also from Junzhou, I heard it and tell you, I heard that he was doing business in Bianjing before, and he also built a big villa." ”
"Bang ......"
The bowl in Qin Xianglian's hand fell to the ground suddenly.
If he knew where they were, Chen Yuan would definitely come to pick them up. But now, even if Chen Yuan sent some people to inquire around, there was no news.
There are other things that involve Chen Yuan, such as the matter of the shopkeeper Zhang. He found a lot of people who participated in the wool frying, and proposed that everyone give a certain amount of compensation to the shopkeeper who also participated in the same participation when they shared the profits, which no one refused, and the businessman was exquisite, not to mention that the shopkeeper Zhang could have passed on the loss to those who bought clothes, and the amount of subsidies needed was not very large, and then several people would share it evenly, and each person could not share much.
This is the first hype that Chen Yuan organized them, and everyone has cooperated quite happily. Next, if he can, if they are interested, Chen Yuan wants to pull them together into the sponsorship of Zeng Gongliang.
These plans are just imaginations, Chen Yuan didn't put them forward, at least until they become a colt before they can believe in themselves more, at least until the money is earned this time, they will follow themselves.
Businessmen are like that, if you can take them to make money, they will help you. Just as you can lead your soldiers to victory on the battlefield, they will listen to your orders.
Chen Yuan is confident that this time is also a battle for him, a war waged with money! In this war, the Liao State was caught off guard and did not find a suitable way to deal with it at all, and they were doomed to collapse.
Now Chen Yuan is worried that if he can't control it, the losses of the Liao State may far exceed his expected estimates, and the bottom line of the Liao Xingzong may be broken by himself, which is a very troublesome thing.
As soon as he negotiated with those merchants, before he returned to the villa, Chen Yuan saw a eunuch in the palace, and the eunuch had obviously waited for Chen Yuan for a long time: "Chen Shimei, why did you come back, the emperor wants to see you." ”
Chen Yuan didn't know what Renzong was going to see him doing at this time, maybe because Renzong knew about the fact that he was still doing business, or it could be because Zhao Yi came in the morning.
Along the way, he thought of a way to deal with it, and this time Renzong saw him, and he was indeed in the dormitory, and there were only two of them in the whole room, and even the eunuchs were waiting outside.
This is the first time that the two of them have been alone together, Renzong looked at Chen Yuan, who was very restrained, and said with a smile: "I came to you today because of some family affairs, so I didn't let others in, you don't have to be so restrained." Just sit down. ”
Although Renzong said that he was allowed to sit casually, Chen Yuan still stood very disciplined, and said in a gentle tone: "I don't know what happened when the emperor summoned the grass people?" ”
Renzong also arrived directly: "Zhao Yi went to you because of the matter of the eldest princess?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes." ”
Renzong's eyes flashed with a hint of helplessness: "What did she say?" ”
"Long live, the princess is a child's heart, and what she says is angry, and the grass people know what to do." Chen Yuan tactfully played a cover for Zhao Yi in front of Renzong.
Although the usual crime of bullying the monarch is very serious, but at this time, it also makes Renzong's face look better. He knew that protecting Zhao Yi in front of Renzong was at least much stronger than that Li Wei.
Renzong nodded: "Well, what did you say to Li Wei when you met him in the afternoon?" ”
Chen Yuan said busily: "I didn't say anything, the grass people just asked Lord Li Wei to accompany the eldest princess." ”
"Do you think Li Wei is wrong about this matter?" Renzong's questioning of Chen Yuan became more and more in-depth, which showed that he was already very interested in Chen Yuan, which was a good phenomenon.
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "I don't know, but I don't need to know." The key is to know how to be humble to each other, and there is no need to fight for a right or wrong. ”
This answer was very satisfying to Renzong, and he smiled on his face: "No wonder Yi'er will take a fancy to you, you are really attractive to women." You may not know the details of the matter of the eldest princess, it is not that Li Wei discovered the eldest princess and Liang Huaiji, but Li Wei's mother. ”
No wonder things are so big! Chen Yuan saw that Li Wei was not a person who didn't know the severity of the matter, and he had been wondering how such a person could make such a big deal out of the problem! Now he finally understands that it must be Li Wei's mother who makes a big fuss, and from her point of view, this kind of humiliating daughter-in-law is absolutely not allowed.
Of course, Li Wei's mother can't give the eldest princess a letter of resignation or enforce the family law like she did for her ordinary little daughter-in-law, she doesn't have the guts! So she chose such a radical way, isn't it a shame for the Li family? Okay, I'll tell you about it, and see where your Zhao family is glorious! In this game between the eldest princess and Li Wei, neither woman took into account Li Wei's feelings.
Li Wei has never said this question to himself, and he has never told anyone else. This man must be carrying the pot at both ends, carrying it for his mother in front of Renzong, and in front of his mother, he has to carry it for the eldest princess.
The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is already difficult, and sometimes being a husband is a splint in it. This time, Li Wei's situation can be imagined. Chen Yuan was full of sympathy for Li Wei at this moment.
