Chapter 170: A Different Chinese New Year's Eve
I auspicious chapter 17o a different kind of Chinese New Year's Eve
To know that no matter what dad is. Neither Yu nor Zhao Yan are fools. He couldn't go home. How could they not notice the anomaly? However. If you have nothing to hide from the current situation, tell the truth. In addition to worrying them in vain. What else? Ensure that your loved ones enjoy prosperity and happiness in peace. It is Yang Zhi's ideal and goal. It is also his bounden duty.
What does it mean to be "in person"? Name implies. Where the royal gold medal arrives, it is equal to where the emperor goes. As long as Yang Zhi sacrifices this magic weapon. Every word he said was equivalent to the emperor's will. Previously, Yang Zhi was disgusted with the emperor's use of himself. From the bottom of my heart, there is an instinctive resistance to the gold medal. It was only at the end of the matter that I realized that the truth was endless. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: the emperor was using him. Isn't he using the emperor? This gold medal at least shows that the emperor's use of him is based on absolute trust, and on the basis of this, he must also pull the emperor with all his might!
Let the family live this year with peace of mind. More than anything else. Yang Zhi knew his father's temperament, and his tricks to appease the old man were straightforward. Habitually, with a lazy smile like a spring breeze, he paced to the front hall. Sit down next to the old man. "Dad." What's wrong with you? Is there something uncomfortable? ”
"Stinky boy. You're back! Yang Yan's small eyes lit up. When he woke up from his dream. Pulled his son over: "Go!" Daddy has something to tell you! ”
Yang Zhi gently shook off the old man. Laughing: "I know what you want to say." I have something to tell you too. This is in your own house. If you two have anything to say, it's okay to say it here? ”
The Flying Tiger Marquis Mansion is vast and magnificent. At the beginning, there were less than twenty servants and maidservants brought from the old home. Today, there are hundreds of servants and maids in the house, including the guards on duty. Who knows which ones are people and which ones are ghosts? The old man has the habitual support of his son. The lawlessness on one-and-a-half of one's acre is notoriously good. Even the old master Shen, the father-in-law of the sour rotten slag, is not a dish in his eyes. As long as the old man lives, it is equivalent to hundreds of people living in the house. Now is never the time for father and son to have a private relationship. What Yang Zhi wanted to say was not just for the old man. If you don't say it to the people of Chang'an, why bother to hide it?
Dad. I'm sorry. I'm singing this for your own good.
Yang Zhi smiled and stood solemnly. Take out the gold medal in front of everyone. He said aloud like a singing: "The emperor gave the first-class Flying Tiger Marquis Yang to the gold medal." Wherever the gold medal goes, I am there! ”
Yang Yan was really stunned by the sudden change. I was at a loss for a moment. Yang Zhi hurriedly reminded in a low voice: "Dad, I am on order to return to Beijing on business." You can rest assured. According to the rules, see the gold medal, such as the emperor, although you are my son. But now it is still clothed. Hurry up and bow down! ”
"Oh. Right! Right! "Although Yang Yan is not familiar with the rules and etiquette of the court, he has heard books and watched plays. woke up to the point that his son was holding a small golden sign and the Shang Fang sword in the play was completely the same thing. If you don't worship it, at least ask for the crime of "great disrespect". Is it sloppy and sloppy? There's such a precious thing in your hand. Do you have to worry about what you can't do? The little rabbit cub took it out and shook his majesty in order to give Lao Tzu a meal #o39; Maru! Suddenly, my heart was gloomy, surprised and happy. Very cooperative, lying on the top and shouting long live and prostrating.
After Yang Yan bowed, he was about to get up. Many guards and subordinates roared angrily: "You bastards! Could it be that the ears are swatting flies? Eyeballs all on the buttocks? Didn't you hear what the young master said just now? Didn't you see that the young master was holding a gold medal from the emperor? Why don't you come over and bow and prostrate! Don't you want to celebrate the New Year? ”
This clumsy live drama performed by father and son together. Everyone in the house was dumbfounded. The nearby guards have been in Ouchi for a long time. Among them, there are many people with active brains who know the goods, where dare to slack off in the slightest? Under the guidance of this cadre. Men and women everywhere they could see understood what was going on or not. If there is nothing to do, everyone will not stop, and the work in their hands will kneel down and bow. It's just that eleven out of 10 people think. The Yang father and son took the royal gold medal at this time to show off. Two hundred percent is to show that he has the confidence to welcome Chang Xiugong and enter the door.
Yang Zhi's skin thickness is getting better and better. His acting skills have also improved significantly compared with before, and he nodded solemnly: "My Yang family is full of loyalty, and the whole family is worried about the emperor." How can the emperor's sacred heart candle be illuminated when he sees thousands of miles? Everybody, please get up. It's time to be busy, or to be busy. ”
As the saying goes, look at big eyes and big mouths. Since the son of the director. Especially after the family moved to Chang'an. Yang Yan felt that it was easier to come with silver than to pick it up for nothing. When doing business in Xinyang, the miserliness habit of Bibi has been diluted a lot. How to say that there are more father-in-law daughters-in-law with goods in their stomachs, it is a great joy for the Yang family, which has a single lineage. The arrogant interface said: "Give me a little smart!" This year's New Year's bounty should be doubled. Men and women, young and old, have a share. Let's #o39;|Let's have a good year together! ”
As soon as the old man was happy, he doubled the New Year's reward. These inexplicable heads are really worth it! Many of the guards and servants rejoiced. Everyone's spirits lifted.
As the saying goes, the country is easy to change. A crow never the whiter for washing herself often. Yang Zhi knew that his father had opened his mouth on a whim to promise a big profit. It's hard to guarantee that it won't hurt when you come to your senses later. He Penglai scavenged a lot of money. Because I was in too much of a hurry, I didn't have time to explain the delivery to Linglong and Mr. At that time, I didn't know what major changes had happened in Chang'an. Just in case, the silver tickets brought back are roughly estimated to be at least 500,000. Think carefully about it after returning to Chang'an. The position of his family lineage. It's really hard to get the chance to spend a lot of money yourself. The silver belongs to Lao Tzu or to the son. What's the difference now? It's better to simply give it to the old man. Coax him to be happy again.
Take out the silver
Think about it. I ordered another 60,000 taels. Stuff the rest to the old man. This silver is my filial piety to you during the New Year. Spend it however you want. ”
Yang Yan has long been accustomed to his son's ability to hold money in the past two years. Although very happy. But there was no overjoy. happily took a large stack of silver tickets for a long time. He sighed, "Zhi'er." Daddy knows that you have always been a good and filial son. To be honest, with our current family business. It's been a lifetime that can't be spent. It is said that it is difficult to start a business, but in fact, it is even more difficult to keep a business. I'm my age. And how much money can you spend? I'm not a fool. You can't let people laugh at us, the Yang family is the son, the family is prosperous, and the old son is defeated, right? It is rumored that the emperor fell ill on the way to the class, what are you doing for the emperor. Daddy doesn't either. But you have to remember: no amount of wealth can match a lifetime of peace. The money should be reserved for the children and grandchildren. Blessing must be planned for children and grandchildren! Daddy keeps all the money for you. Wait until one day in the future when the world is really peaceful. Haoxingjia real estate plan for future prosperity. ”
These words alone are enough to see that what Yang Yan said is true, and he is indeed not a fool.
"Daddy. I remember your words. Yang Zhi also let the old man say that he was moved by his true feelings and continued to be relieved: "You can relax." I know what I do.
Today I entered the palace to meet the queen and Concubine Mei. The Queen has promised to do her best for me and the Princess. You don't have to think about anything. Just wait to hold your grandson."
The so-called family and everything is prosperous, and the old man has been appeased. Next, it's time to appease the two wives. Although Shen Yu has a rough temperament, he is not stupid. Yeon is the princess of the golden branches and jade leaves, and can only be subordinated to it in terms of status. and his own man is already in the boat. She and Zhao Yan have already fallen in love. It was to untie the knot in my heart without much effort. Zhao Yan has only been in the door for a day. The two of them are very affectionate and harmonious with each other. Shen Yu and Zhao Yan's residence utensils are arranged even more difficult and subtle. It has a bit of the demeanor of the eldest lady of the Yang family, and this legendary young lady of the Shen family originally had the impression in people's minds. It's a little bit of a nonsense, and I don't want to be suspicious, but it's crooked. In one night, the image suddenly brightened and became much taller. The more the position in the Yang Mansion is consolidated.
I can't say that I don't know how small the official is in the capital. Like Shen Zitong, an official eunuch. If it weren't for the fact that he was Yang Zhi's father-in-law. I'm afraid that the value in the eyes of the prince is almost negligible, and in Chang'an, he is not even qualified to be included in people's after-dinner conversations. After the family moved to Chang'an, the food and clothing of the Shen Mansion were used, although they maintained the former wealth and abundance as always. But no matter how much it compares with the hateful and angry landlord's family, it is difficult to make people happy.
Yang Zhi thought that no matter who won or lost. There should be a difference between father-in-law Shen Zitong and brother-in-law Shen Chong. Shen Zitong can only be regarded as a little guy waving the flag and beating the side drum in the prince group at best. Shen Zhong acted as the prince's pawn for success or failure. To outsiders, they are father and son. But Yang Zhi still has the heart to distinguish this pair, if the prince succeeds. Naturally, anything is superfluous. If the prince fails. Will the Zhou Shen clan be wiped out? Will the hundreds of people surnamed Shen there be buried together in a daze?
Yang Zhi didn't know if the Shen father and son had thought about this. He didn't want to know either. Usually he hides from the stupid old man. Now at this time, I don't want to mess with it. But Shen Zitong is his father-in-law, and this relationship cannot be separated after all. It's the New Year. The number of courtesies that a person should have for half a son is still indispensable.
Shen Yu is the famous young lady of the Yang Mansion. It doesn't matter what she wants to do. There are no restrictions on how much money can be spent. Yang Zhi asked himself if he was a careful man. Some of the money was spent by Shen Yu when he went to the account office in the house to spend it himself. and hand delivered to her with their own hands. The meaning is completely different. For example, prepare a New Year's gift to the old man's house.
Yang Zhi was away from home for several months. After returning to Beijing, I had no leisure until then. There is nothing else to do today. I was not busy looking for Shen Yu and Zhao Yan. Ran walked around the house. Feel the smell of home after a long absence. Stroll to the annex where the study is located. found Chang San, who had just settled down. Chang San had changed into a brand-new Yang Mansion servant outfit. If it weren't for the occasional sharp and sharp look in his eyes. Who would have thought. This middle-aged servant who looks like an honest wood used to be a professional killer who kills people without blinking? Those who like to pretend to be cool are almost like playing treasures. A man who struggles to put the word killer on his face. A thug at best.
Yang Zhi looked Chang San up and down. smiled: "It looks like Brother Chang is like this now." If it weren't for the old relationship with you. I never thought you were the identity in the first place. It's not a matter of course. So wronged Brother Chang. Don't be surprised. ”
"Master Hou is serious." Chang San said respectfully: "Follow people like Hou Ye who do great things through the heavens. It is the privilege of my life. How dare you care about anything else? IMHO. Although I have only been in the house for half a day. But there are many ears and eyes for the Hou Mansion, and I already know a little bit about the mixture of fish and dragons. Please pay attention. If there is no urgent matter, you need to tell me in person. You shouldn't have too much contact with me. If I attract the attention of others because of this, my secret role as a pawn will be greatly reduced. Please rest assured. If I am in the house, but there is any change. I will show the marquis in time. ”
This is exactly what Yang Zhi wanted to tell Chang San, and he couldn't help but secretly praise him for being worry-free and sensible. I won't go into details. Nodding with satisfaction, he said, "That's very good." Then everything will have Brother Lao Chang. ”
Out of the remaining 60,000 taels of silver, he set aside 20,000 taels. handed it to him and smiled: "Alone in a foreign land as a stranger." I miss my relatives every festive season. I also know if Brother Chang has a family and wife. Though you and I are called Lord's servants. But I am, I regard my brother as a brother. It's almost a year. This bit of silver should be regarded as a little meaning I gave to Brother Chang. ”
Chang San has been killing people for many years, and it is the first time he has met a master like Yang Zhi. As long as you follow him with all your heart. Not only to give you dignity without sparing
And nothing will be done in vain. If he is satisfied, it is heavy enough to make people's eyes straight. Of course, if you are bent on being against him. This uncle will not be half soft. In the words of Yang Zhi's previous life. In Chang San's eyes, Yang Zhi is definitely a "four haves" boss with ideals, ambitions, strength and means. In these years, the loyalty of one minister and two masters is highly respected, and Liuxi, including Chang San, has no reason to change jobs? In the opinion of Chang San and others. Zhang Bohu's madman who vainly tries to do such a boss and replace him is simply unreasonable. So he deserves to die.
Chang San was accepted by Yang Zhi and was willing to be his servant. I have long understood his style. It's not fake to prevaricate. Solemnly put away the silver ticket. He hugged his fists and said: "I am ashamed to be rewarded by the Hou Ye." Hou Ye is kind. I can't die. ”
Master-servant and the relationship between hire and employed. From ancient times to the present day, it has always been the biggest obstacle between bosses and employees. Yang Zhi obviously had no intention of discussing this topic further with Chang San. He shook his head and smiled, and went to Shen Yu and Zhao Yan.
Yang called a servant and asked. Only then did I know that Shen Yu happened to be staying in Zhao Yan's room at this time. Zhao Yan's room was carefully selected by Shen Yu in the #o39;|Great Hou Mansion. All the utensils and furnishings are Shen Yu according to Zhao Yan in memory #O39; #o39; The general layout of the boudoir is personally listed. It was handed over to Xi's servant Ah Fu Tian to purchase it. Silver is not a problem at all for the Yang Mansion. As the saying goes, money is easy to do. Ah Fu is not #o39;|, but he has done it in one day.
Yang Zhi coughed lightly, pushed the door in, Shen Yuzheng and Zhao Yan hugged him affectionately, whispering something. I guess I'm talking about some private conversation between women. The two of them got up together as soon as they saw Yang enter the door. Shen Yu gave him a blank look. Said angrily: "Death is not good#o39; Target! It's been a long time since I went home. Why did you think of coming to see Yan'er at this time? ”
Yeon was a little uncomfortable. Obviously, she is still trying to adapt to the new role of Yang Fuping's wife. A blessing to Yang. Pinching the corners of his clothes, he said crampedly: "Husband." You're back? I have Sister Lao Yu'er here to bother to clean it up. Husband, you ...... You may be seated. ”
Yang Zhi sneered: "Yan'er." We're all a family from now on. Why are you so polite to me? ”
Yan's room is not only as bright and spacious as Yang Zhi and Shen Yu's original bedroom. The furnishings are even more elegant and luxurious. And the accessories that show Princess Zhao Yan's body are nothing.
This shows that Zhao Yan's mind is often clear. I know what kind of identity I want to do in the future. Avoid giving people the pretense of being made. , which added unnecessary trouble to Yang Zhi for no reason.
"Not bad. Not bad! Yang Zhi couldn't help but praise again and again. What is the feeling in Shen Yu's heart. Yang Zhi could have imagined it. Pull her hand and shake it hard. Said apologetically: "Yu'er." It's hard for you! ”
Shen Yu and Yang Zhi's original match. is also his first love after coming to this world. The relationship is far from being comparable to Zhao Yan, who is improvised. There is an indescribable tacit understanding between husband and wife. There is a way that is a needle in a woman's heart. It must be false to say that Shen Yuxin has no resentment at all. At this time, he was instantly cleaned up by Yang Zhi's words. Smiled. "Damn it! You just said that we will all be a family in the future. Why did you say two words again? For no reason, let Yan'er laugh! ”
Yang Zhi's so-called appeasement can only be appropriate appeasement for the time being. In order to maintain the excellent situation of stability and unity. Make sure he won't be distracted by a fire in the backyard. It's business as usual, don't say anything that shouldn't be said. It is the best love for the two little women who will be human at the moment.
I have no intention of lingering too much with the two little wives. The remaining 40,000 taels of silver were evenly divided into two parts. I took one and gave it to Shen Yu first: "Yu'er." There are 20,000 taels of silver tickets here. Hello tomorrow to make a red envelope. Then I picked up a few more expensive gifts in the Fuzhong Library. Ah Fu sent it to his father-in-law's house. It is said to be a New Year's gift of our filial piety. Stay until the first month of the new year. I'll go to the door again to pay New Year's greetings to the two old people. ”
Shen Yu took the silver ticket. Poked his head with a smile and said, "You still remember that you have an old man!" ”
Yang Zhi gave another copy to Zhao Yan. Said softly, "Yan'er." These twenty thousand taels are given to you. I wronged you and entered the door of my Yang family. It's not easy to know you. You're new to Chase. I'm afraid you're thin-skinned. Keep some silver in your hands. Reward the guards and subordinates may wish to be generous. In the future, they will not be born with you like they are now#o39; Finish. Today the Queen has promised to do her best to deal with my #o39;|. Wait until the first month of the year, and I will enter the palace with you to see you. It is to pay New Year's greetings to Concubine Mei and King Yue. I should accompany your mother's family to save relatives! ”
"This ...... You've been so thoughtful for me! Zhao Yan took it. He hesitated and said, "Husband." There's a saying I don't know whether to ask or not. I heard that my father fell ill on the way back to the court. You suddenly returned to Beijing from Shandong. Isn't it......? ”
Yeon grew up in the deep palace since she was a child. He has always cared about national affairs. and far more careful than Shen Yu's heart. There is an almost instinctive acuity in politics. But even if she knew the situation thoroughly. How can it help?
Yang Zhi cut off her words. It seemed to be answering Zhao Yan. As if he was muttering to himself, he said, "You must have heard that I have the emperor's gold medal in my hand." I came back to do what I thought I had to do. ”
I looked up at the sky that was already darkening. One left and one right took Shen Yu and Zhao Yan's hands. Diverting the topic, he smiled: "Today is Chinese New Year's Eve." Let's go together to give Jun Zhu incense. Send him to heaven and say good deeds! After a while, I had dinner. After I went to visit a few of the old ministers. I'll be sure to talk to you when I come back. ”
To this day. Not princes and nobles or ordinary people. Every family is celebrating the New Year. Which pillar old ministers are they? What about Yang Zhi, who was holding the imperial gift card in his hand, to visit him overnight? (To be continued.) If you want to know what to do. See chapter 6 for more information. Author.! )
