It is said that it is difficult for a Qing official to decide family affairs, and everyone has their own blessings, Yang Zhi originally did not want to meddle in Xu Wenhan's family affairs.

After Xu Wenhan left, Yang Zhi thought left and right, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. If Xu Wenhan and Tian have been married for many years, there may be some hidden illness in Xu Wenhan. But now that the couple has even given birth to a son, this problem obviously does not exist.

Losers, whether in the past life or in this life, Yang Zhi has seen a lot. Xu Wenhan has been married for nearly six years, counting the 100,000 taels of silver tickets given by Yang Zhi at the beginning, it is still conservative to earn more than 500,000 taels in a few years. With this net worth, he has crossed the threshold of high-income people in Chang'an, and he can become a wealthy family.

To make a very intuitive analogy, when Tian Zude was a scholar in charge of the Hanlin Academy, his annual salary was less than 3,000 taels, plus all kinds of rewards in the palace for four hours and eight festivals, the full count would not exceed 8,000 taels. In addition to meeting the daily expenses of nearly 100 people, he also has to help others. Xu Wenhan's annual income is not less than 80,000 taels, Tian has spent it all, and he also urged Xu Wenhan to ask Yang Zhi and Qin Kongyun for it, where did all this money go?

Yang Zhi didn't care if Xu Wenhan was happy or not, the purpose of clearing the assets and checking the capital was to make a clear calculation with the Tian family, and the next step was to send Meiji to warn the Tian family, Xu Wenhan can take a concubine, and he can leave you aside in the future. The next step is to send the famous lady's Geng post, in order to tell Tian that a woman in the position of the prime minister's wife can be discharged two miles long, you had better accept it when you see it, otherwise you will get out of it as soon as possible!

The next day, Tian Zude, Xu Wenhan, and Tian all received a list from Yang Zhiren: the Tian family was twenty-five years before Wucheng, and all the properties under his name were valued at a total of 11,000 and 40 taels. As of the end of March of the second year of Longchang, the valuation of the properties under the name of the Xu family totaled 163,000 taels. Among them, the Xu Mansion was given by the emperor, and the decoration and household were all added by Yang Zhi. All of them are included. The property under the name of the Tian family was valued at a total of 486,215 taels, less than six years. The value added is nearly fifty times.

In addition, there is also a very distinctive list: according to the statistics of March of the second year of Xia Li Longchang, Tian and Xu Wenhan had 47 quarrels. Xu Wenhan has no other wives and concubines, and within a month, the two of them have only six days of sleeping together.

Ah Fu's words this time were even more ruthless: My Hou Ye said that people are doing it, and the sky is watching. I heard that my sister-in-law has been in poor health since she was a child, so I hope to take care of herself.

Married life is like drinking water. Knowing that it has been the most difficult thing in the world throughout the ages. Yang Zhiyue's coercion and intimidation on behalf of the company is also helpless. There is no need to force the sensible at all, and it is useless to force the ignorant to force it.

The combination of Xu Wenhan and Tian is actually a political marriage brokered by the first emperor, and there is not much emotional basis to speak of. Yang Zhi's angry actions were all because of Xu Wenhan's heartache. The so-called family ugliness should not be publicized, Tian Zude and Xu Wenhan are both face-loving people, no matter how the two families are stirred up. will only try their best to cover it. No matter how you look at this matter, Xu Wenhan is in charge, but Yang Zhi is not the aunt of the neighborhood committee. Lao Xu, you should still ask for more blessings in the future!

I'm afraid even Yang Zhi himself didn't realize it. It all stems from the restlessness of waiting. After the court discussion, there was a sudden silence on the emperor's side. Yang Zhi also knew that there was a process in everything, so he patted his ass and walked away regardless of it. It's not good for everyone.

Yang Zhi repeatedly instructed that the outfit for leaving Beijing should be as simple as possible. But the women always seemed to have something to clean up, and he was neither interested nor able to intervene. It's been a boring day. Remembering Qin Kongyun's invitation a few days earlier, he stepped on the lunch order and went to Qin's mansion.

The old fox still stayed in the dark room all day long, still wearing the same half-old black robe, still half-lying and half-sitting on the soft couch. It's just that the beard and hair are all gray, and the knife-like folds on his face are deeper, and Qin Gong is really old.

"Coming? Have a seat! The best West Lake Longjing before the rain, you are not an outsider, try it yourself. ”

Yang Zhi was not polite, and made himself a cup of tea: "Old man, I haven't seen you for more than a year, and you are old again." ”

Qin Gong smiled disapprerovingly: "The immortal is a goblin." Think about the emperor's will to appoint you to lead the army, and it should be issued in a few days. Boy, do it yourself in the future. ”

Yang Zhiwei refilled the tea cup in front of Gong Qin: "This sentence sent me away?" Don't want to tell me anything else? ”

Qin Gong said indifferently: "What else do you want the old man to say?" Do you have to say goodbye to you with a handful of tears and a handful of snot, are you satisfied? The old and the new alternate, the reincarnation of heaven, ancient and modern. How can you live to the age of an old man and not see this? Our time is gone, and your time has just come. How is it? The old man said that, do you listen to it a lot? ”

Yang Zhi couldn't help but be happy: "Old man, when you were young, you must have been an all-encompassing gangster, but I am afraid that you are not much better than my old man." ”

"I'm far worse than your old man." Qin Gong sighed: "Your old man is optimistic and knows his fate, that is wise and foolish!" Because of such a good son as you, you can enjoy all the wealth in the world and the prosperity of the world. In the twilight of life, you can return to your hometown with fallen leaves, reunite with your family, and your children and grandchildren will go around your knees and take care of your days. The old man has worked hard all his life, and even a family reunion dinner has become a luxury during the New Year's holidays. On the day of the death of the descendants, I want to send my three sons to the end but can't! Hehe, this is the richest man in Daxia who the old man has fought for all his life! ”

Qin Gong seems to be open-minded, but he is not a saint after all, and his words are full of sadness. Seeing that Yang Zhiwen was silent, he changed his words and said: "You and I have been cooperating for a long time, and the old man can completely trust you, and he is also very relieved about Kongyun and Jiaoyang." If you lead the army to destroy Chu, the Qin clan will help you as always. But the old man still has something to entrust, he must bring my three sons back safely. Any money or property can be discarded, as long as it is a living person! It is said that the father and mother are full of cubs, and the old man owes this little son too much! ”

The Duke of Qin and the Qin brothers rarely mention the third son of the Qin family on weekdays, because it is related to the destruction of Chu, and they must be lurking in Southern Chu as an undercover agent.

Yang Zhi smiled bitterly: "I regard you as a master and a father, and I am a brother and sister with the empty clouds and the bright sun. But you have to let me know where your third son is and what his name is, right? ”

Qin Gong shook his hand slightly and said, "The third son of my family has been arrogant since he was a child, bold and careful. To put it bluntly, he's a smart guy with a bit of urine. Before the decree is issued, you will not be completely sure that you will be in command of the army, and he will take the initiative to find you when the time comes. - Let's eat first! ”

Qin Gong lived in a simple house, for so many years, Yang Zhi rarely sat at the same table with him and ate alone, and today was the first time. The old man is known as the richest man in Daxia, and his lunch meal is ridiculously simple: a bowl of clear soup and noodles. There are almost no oil stars in the crystal clear noodle soup, only a few verdant vegetables.

Yang Zhideng gasped, rolled his eyes and said, "...... No way? Old man, are you a devout Buddhist? But I'm not! My second brother...... That is, the eldest young master of your family, eating a random dish outside is enough for you to eat somen noodles for ten or eight years! ”

Qin Gong took a small bite of noodles and said with a look of enjoyment: "A son is a son, and Lao Tzu is Lao Tzu." The old man doesn't believe in Buddhism, and I don't believe in anyone in this world except myself. As a person, you should know and cherish your blessings, and when you reach the age of the old man, you will definitely not treat yourself badly. There is a saying that the elderly have eaten first, and the young people have eaten last. Boy, what do you want to eat that you don't have at home? There's no need to eat here. If you love to eat or not, you can eat it, and if you don't eat it, you won't send it away! ”

Anyway, this is in Chang'an, no, I'm afraid it's the last meal that Duke Qin will have with him in his lifetime, if this bowl of noodles can also be regarded as rice. It was Yang Zhi who picked up the chopsticks and tried to take a bite, but his eyes immediately widened: "It tastes good!" Delicious! It's so delicious! ”

Qin Gong said disapprerovingly: "Can that be bad?" This bowl of noodles will cost two hundred taels of silver even if you are here, and the old man is reluctant to change it to someone else! ”

Yang Zhi was stunned and said, "Old man, you mean...... This bowl of somen noodles cost more than 200 taels of silver? Do you know that two hundred taels of silver is enough to buy twenty cows? ”

Qin Gong smiled disdainfully: "What's so strange about this? For the consommé soup only, simmer for 12 hours with large bones and fat chicken, during which the oil is skimmed off until it is as clear as water. Then add sea cucumber, abalone, shark fin, dried scallops, fish lips, turtle skirt, deer tendon, pigeon eggs, duck zhen, fish maw, fish maw, scallops, pigeons, pork ribs, razor clams, Jinhua ham, pork belly, lamb elbow, hoof tip, hoof tendon, old hen chicken breast, yellow-billed duck duck breast, chicken gizzard, duck gizzard, mushroom, winter bamboo shoots, simmer again for 12 hours, skim off the oil as usual, leaving only the clear soup. ”

"The noodles are also freshly ground and made, and you don't understand it. What do you think? Do you still think the old man is stingy? Do you still think that the old man is slow to treat you? ”

Making a bowl of noodles can pull out so much knowledge, Yang Zhi couldn't help but secretly scold the old guy for being perverted, but it didn't prevent him from eating even the noodles and soup at a staggering speed, and he was almost embarrassed to lick the bottom of the bowl.

Qin Gong watched him finish eating with a smile on his face, and said with regret: "Good things should be tasted slowly, like you eat like this, it is really a tyrannical thing!" ”

Yang Zhi muttered, "What is two hundred taels of silver to you?" If you have the heart to invite me to dinner, you should cook ten bowls and eight bowls for me to eat. Anyway, I can't eat you poorly! ”

Qin Gong sighed: "Boy, you dare to act but you are extremely cunning, my third son of the Qin family is far from being able to reach it!" To be honest, the old man likes you very much and is very optimistic about you. ”

"Your net worth is not inferior to the Qin family, if the old man shows off his wealth and magnificence in front of you, do you think it is interesting? For you and me, the meaning of wealth is now just a number, a symbol. Life does not bring it, death does not bring it. But in his lifetime, if he can use the wealth in his hands to make a career, it can be called a worthwhile life! It was you who made the old man understand this truth, so I thank you very much, really. ”

"Do you know why the old man invited you to eat noodles today? Delicious, yet smooth. However, if everything is too much, we should not just look at the appearance. If you really make ten bowls and eight bowls for you, will you still think it is so delicious? ”

Tired, he lay back on the soft couch, closed his eyes and said, "Boy, say goodbye today, goodbye in the next life!" ”

Duke Qin's words made Yang Zhi speechless and choked, and tears flowed down unconsciously. At the moment, he didn't say much, knelt on his knees solemnly, respectfully kowtowed to Qin Gong three times, and left gloomily! (To be continued.) )
