Chapter 167: Knocking on the Mountain
Wei Tingzhen's words made Wei Tingyu's face flush, he shouted "sister", and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Song Mo and we are not all the way at all!" If we can be alienated because of this, it may not be a bad thing! ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wei Tingzhen was so anxious that she stomped her feet, "Can you afford to provoke Song Mo?" ”
Wei Tingyu said disapprenously: "What can you afford to provoke?" People are self-exalted without seeking products. Am I not going to get anything good from him, do I need to slap him? As he spoke, his expression was straight, and he said to Wei Tingzhen, "Sister, you can also talk to your brother-in-law, you will have less dealings with Song Mo in the future, he is too ruthless...... The guards of his own house, those who greeted him in and out, said to kill, killed, killed, and neatly stacked in the middle of the yard, is this what ordinary people can do? I also know that he is very good, and you want me to flatter him well, so that I can get a good job in addition to serving. But there are some things we can't do, and if we do, we owe someone else for the rest of our lives...... If he asks me to help him kill someone, sister, you say, should I go or not? Some debts that we can't afford to pay ......"
Tian's face turned pale when he heard this, and he hurriedly took his son's hand: "What's wrong?" What kills people and doesn't kill people? What does it have to do with you? She said, so anxious that she was about to cry, "Yu'er, don't you scare your mother?" What the hell is going on? What does it have to do with Song Mo? What debt do you owe him? ”
"Mother," Wei Tingzhen hurriedly sat down beside her mother and comforted her mother softly, "It's okay, it's okay!" It's an analogy. As he spoke, he glared at Wei Tingyu fiercely, signaling him to help appease the Tian family, "Isn't my brother on good terms with Song Mo?" I'll let him get along with Song Mo well......"
"Sister, don't coax your mother." Wei Tingyu obediently sat down beside his mother, but interrupted Wei Tingzhen's words, and said to Tian, "Mother, that's the case...... He told Song Yichun that he didn't like his eldest son and wanted to change his son, so he let his own guards take Song Mo, but Song Mo instead killed all the guards of the mansion and told the Tian family, "...... You say, "Can I get along with such a person?" ”
Tian was about to faint when he heard this.
She grabbed her son's hand tightly, her knuckles faintly white, and asked Wei Tingzhen in a hissing voice, "Is this true?" ”
Wei Tingzhen couldn't help lowering her eyelids and said "um" softly.
"Your brother did the right thing." Tian glanced at his son, and his eyes showed a look of relief, "Although our family is in decline, we can't help and abuse our conscience in order to get a good errand, what is the difference between this and those courtiers around the emperor, the idle gang of princes and nobles?" We can't even lose our character for the sake of power! Besides, associating with someone like Song Mo, even if it is good for a while, in the long run, it will do more harm than good - which ruthless person have you seen a good end? If Song Mo is unlucky, won't your brother also be affected? He added, "As for your brother's errand, there is still a year before he is discharged, so I can figure out a way slowly." Isn't there still his brother-in-law? ”
"yes!" Wei Tingyu was praised by his mother, and he couldn't help but his tail a little, raised his chin and said, "Although our family is not good enough to be better, it is more than enough, and we can't afford to be cheap in order to get a good errand!" ”
"Good, good, good!" Tian looked at his son with a smile, but Wei Tingzhen couldn't cry or laugh.
Good people are rewarded, and bad people are beheaded. Is it all good sung in the play?
If you let Zong Yao ask for Wei Tingyu's business, Zong Yao has stayed in the Guogong Mansion all these years and rarely goes out to walk around, and he is not familiar with those nobles who hold real power, and his younger brother inherited the title of Marquis of Jining, no matter what, he is also a marquis, Zong Yao is not able to find an errand for his younger brother that matches his identity; Second, because Zong Yao was made the prince, it has made the mother-in-law very unhappy, even the father-in-law has made many concessions in various matters, if the mother-in-law knows that Zong Yao has come forward for his mother's brother, the mother-in-law will definitely feel that Zong Yao is facing her mother's family, if there is a fuss, even the father-in-law will not be able to come forward to help them speak.
Song Mo is different.
When he makes such a fuss, he is his father-in-law, and he will look solemn when he mentions Song Molai.
If he is willing to help his younger brother come forward, those people will not dare to do anything perfunctory even if they get in the way of his murderous reputation.
Wei Tingzhen was pondering when he heard his younger brother discussing with his mother: "Song Mo also gave me a horse, I want to return it to him tomorrow." Tell him that his family can't afford to support ......."
"As it should be." Tian Shi hurriedly said, "It's best to send some things, it can be regarded as a thank you for his kindness to you before......
Wei Tingzhen didn't know what to say.
"Mother!" She was a little angry and said, "The red jade of the Song Mansion is the number one famous horse in Kyoto, I don't know how many people want to buy it with a lot of money, but the Song family didn't sell it, but gave it to my younger brother." If you just give the horse to Song Mo and return it, wouldn't you slap Song Mo in the face in front of the whole of Kyoto? You also say that he is ruthless, and if he starts trouble with his brother, can we avoid it? Then he taught Wei Tingyu, "Don't you act like a child, okay?" Take everything for granted! At this time, Song Mo was in a difficult time, you were still in the ground, what did you make him think? ”
Wei Tingyu couldn't help touching his head and said to his mother: "It's the same...... It's really a bit bad to be estranged from Song Mo at this time......"
Wei Tingzhen breathed a sigh of relief.
Her younger brother, although he has no scheming, is sincere and chivalrous.
"I think you might as well send someone to send a post to Song Mo, saying that you have an urgent matter in the past two days and can't get out, can we meet again in two days?" Wei Tingzhen helped his younger brother come up with an idea, "It's not too late to slowly reduce contact with him in the future." ”
Wei Tingyu nodded again and again, and sent someone to send a post to Song Mo according to Wei Tingzhen's instructions.
Wei Tingzhen took the opportunity to tell Wei Tingyu again: "Be careful when you speak, don't go straight." Fool this matter first, and if Song Mo looks for you again in the future, you can just act when you have the opportunity. If he doesn't look for you, you don't take the initiative to look for him. ”
In the final analysis, I still hope that Wei Tingyu can maintain a certain contact with Song Mo.
Wei Tingyu didn't think about it so much, and nodded "yes".
Song Mo, who received Wei Tingyu's post, sneered, and said to Wu Yi, who sent the post in: "Then see you in Cuizhen Pavilion in two days!" ”
Located outside the Chaoyang Gate, Euijin Pavilion is the most famous vegetarian restaurant in Kyoto.
Wu Yi went to sue the Wei family.
On the day of the appointment, Wei Tingyu wore a cyan Hangzhou silk straight jacket and went to Cuizhen Pavilion.
Song Mo arrived a quarter of an hour later.
He wore a beautiful blue muslin robe, his face was as pale as jade, handsome and unusual, and he walked in leisurely, with a pair of eyes as bright as stars being calm and cold, as deep as a cold pool that was not in turmoil, which suddenly made Wei Tingyu's heart chill, and his smile became reluctant.
"Lord Shizi!" He involuntarily stood up and saluted Song Mo with a respectful expression.
Song Mo sat on the main seat expressionlessly, bowed slightly towards Wei Tingyu, and said lightly: "Sit!" "Immediately took control of the situation.
Wei Tingyu couldn't help but look a little restrained.
Song Mo didn't be polite to him, and said straight to the point: "You first want to say that it is inconvenient to come to see me because of filial piety, presumably because you think that I am not worth it." Later, I sent a little guy to post to me, I don't know what made you change your mind? ”
His expression was indifferent, his tone was calm, but there was a kind of sarcasm that made people feel ashamed.
Wei Tingyu couldn't help but bow his head and muttered, "You killed too much...... That's not good...... I'm here to persuade you......"
Song Mo was stunned.
He originally thought that the reason why Wei Tingyu was estranged from him was because he was afraid of getting into trouble, but he never thought that Wei Tingyu was questioning his character!
Wei Tingyu saw that Song Mo was silent, and Song Mo had always been kind to him, and sometimes he would even take care of his affection and talk to him, and for a while he left Wei Tingzhen's instructions behind, he looked up at Song Mo and said: "Look at you making such a fuss, everyone is silent when they talk about you, and some people are so frightened that they tremble, threatening to never associate with you again." We all live in Kyoto, what does it mean to be alone if you have no relatives or friends? ”
Although this man has no brains, he is not unkind.
Dou Zhao married him, although he couldn't rely on his husband, he would not be neglected.
Song Mo couldn't help but smile slightly, like ice and snow melting, revealing the beauty of green mountains and greenery.
Wei Tingyu was slightly stunned.
Song Mo has said: "You're right! I really have to think about it. Then he picked up the teapot on the table and poured Wei Tingyu a cup of tea, "I'm looking for you, I actually want to ask you if you're interested-Gu Yu, you also know, the emperor is going to dredge the canal recently, and he took the road from Jining, Xuzhou, Pizhou, and Huaiyin, are you interested in joining the shares?" ”
Wei Tingyu was shocked.
With such an errand, being able to pick up one section by a few people is already the ability of the sky, and that Gu Yu actually took four sections!
"This, how much silver does it cost to put into this?" Cold sweat broke out in his vest, "I'm afraid I won't be able to come up with that much silver...... A small share doesn't seem to be enough...... And Gu Yu is not short of silver...... I'm still in the filial piety period......"
Wei Tingyu was very conflicted, feeling that this was an opportunity, but he was afraid that he would not have the ability to get involved.
"Who would go to the construction site to supervise the work by themselves!" Song Mo couldn't help laughing, "You just said if you want to participate, if you want to participate, just send a competent manager." As for the silver, the household department will allocate a part, and the conscription will count a part, and it won't cost much! ”
Wei Tingyu immediately became excited: "Then it's good for me!" ”
Song Mo smiled.
The guys started serving.
Wei Tingyu couldn't sit still and said, "I have to discuss this matter with my sister." Maybe I'll have to borrow some silver from my brother-in-law to turn around......"
Song Mo took the chopsticks and said, "Don't make a noise for the time being, the eight characters are just a ......" Speaking of this, he turned his head, "However, it is better for you and your sister to discuss first." But I thought in my heart that since I gave him a favor, I would simply do a good thing to the end, and let the lady of the Jingguo Mansion also get involved. With Wei's personality, she will definitely eat alone, and she can control Wei Tingyu so that he doesn't shout everywhere.
He knew in his heart that he had plans, but he didn't know why, when he thought that Wei Tingyu had to discuss Wei Tingzhen in everything, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.
