"Zhongshu Sheren." Chen Shi couldn't hide the smile on his face: "He actually told me: How are the people in Zhongshushe?" Hehehe, it's as easy as drinking a cup of tea and eating a bowl of rice, which really scared me. ”

Chen Shi was sitting in Xu Ge's old study at the moment, opposite Xu Jie, who had once been in charge of the country. Xu Fan sat down, but his father was present, so he didn't dare to show too much affection.

It is different from the meeting room and reception room of Xia Wei New Garden. Whether it is the Huanghuali furniture or the calligraphy and paintings on the wall, they all reveal a strong academic atmosphere. Since ancient times, China has traditionally learned and excelled, and has basically achieved the integration of officials and scholars. The more wealthy the family, the more they need to match their academic status, otherwise they will be regarded as local tyrants and nouveau riche.

Xu Jieyan likes to wear Taoist robes when he lives, and his expression is light, like a moral master. Leaning on the Luohan couch at this moment, there is no feeling of looseness, only elegant. Obviously, the same action, but people have different senses, this is the wonderful use of temperament. He listened to Chen Shi's reply, his face was still silent, but he said, "Shao Fang wants to come to see me." ”

Chen Shi was puzzled: "This person also has some fame in Nanzhi, and he wants to see the public, so what's the matter?" ”

"I ordered someone to pass Xu Yuanzuo yesterday, and when he arrived, I just happened to talk together." Xu Jiedao.

Chen Shi was a little apprehensive in his heart. He originally thought that Xu Jie's interest in Xu Yuanzuo was only temporary, and he was interested in cultivating, just like a rich man with a lot of money who saw a poor relative pitiful, and casually rewarded a dozen or twenty taels of silver. Can it be said that this rich man really has a deep relationship with that poor relative?

Even if Xu Yuanzuo is a prodigy, as long as there is no Zhongjinshi, the prodigy will not want to be a god.

When did Elder Xu Ge actually think of letting a fifteen-year-old boy participate in business?

Chen Chengzai really regretted that he had spoken too lightly just now.

It can be said that how much Xu Jie values Xu Yuanzuo, how much weight he has to deduct in the heart of the elder Ge.

When Xu Yuanzuo entered the door, he only felt that the current traffic conditions were too painful.

In the future, it took twenty or thirty minutes to walk, but now it takes two hours. This is still in the economically developed area of the Ming Dynasty, and it is still a well-repaired official road. It was really hard for him to imagine what the road conditions would be like in the northwest countryside at this time.

Speaking of which, it was not the first time he had taken this path, and the main reason why he had such a stirring mood was because of the summons of the elder of the pavilion.

Xu Jie is a real national leader! It is a big man who is qualified to be described by the word "country".

When Xu Yuanzuo arrived, the small meeting in Xu Jie's study had already begun. Xu Qing, the housekeeper here, was full of smiles, took him to the door of the study, and went in to report. Just turning on his heels, Xu Qing came out and said, "Yuan Zuo, the master wants you to go in quickly." ”

Xu Yuanzuo bowed his head slightly to express his gratitude, and walked inside.

When Xu Jie saw Xu Yuanzuo coming in, his eyes flickered, and he keenly noticed the difference between Xu Yuanzuo.

The last time we met, Xu Yuanzuo was a stupid person with a stupid appearance and a hidden show. Looking at it now, this inner show has been revealed, and the fat on the body is gone, but it is getting tighter and firmer.

The ancients took the birth of each other from the heart as the criterion, and looked at the person first to look at the gods, and then to look at the flesh and bones, so as to judge a person's future and character. From the different appearance of advocating the square ribs of the eyes during the Warring States Period, to the character comments of the Wei and Jin dynasties, and even Zeng Guofan's naked writing of "Bing Jian", Huaxia is a place to see faces.

Seeing that Xu Yuanzuo could make such a earth-shaking change in just over a month, Xu Jie was a little more excited than anyone else.

Xu Yuanzuo just thinks that his exercise is quite effective. Others thought that he was getting older and that his body had grown, so he would naturally look thinner. Only Xu Jie believes that Xu Yuanzuo, a young dragon, is precisely because he gets along with the Xu family, so he can enter the sea like a dragon and show his true face!

A noble son from a poor family is always described as "Yulong", and he is very proud.

The family has enough noble sons, so they want their family to be like a sea, with a group of dragons swimming.

Of course, not everyone can see the excitement of the elder Ge. Especially for a master like Xu Jie, who has penetrated into the enemy and suffered for more than ten years, Piri's Spring and Autumn Divine Skills have already entered the realm.

"Yuan Zuo, have you heard of Shao Fang?" Xu Jie ordered Xu Yuanzuo to sit down, and asked straight to the point.

Xu Yuanzuo saw that Xu Fan and Chen Shi were all sitting loosely, but he didn't dare to relax, he was quite sitting, and said: "I have heard people call him Danyang Hero, but I don't know the origin of this person." ”

"This person is a wealthy man in Danyang, and he has the ability to pull the thread between the eunuchs." Xu Jie said lightly: "Since the rivers and lakes have a chivalrous name, I think he is also a disciple who is full of small favors." ”

Xu Yuanzuo secretly said in his heart: Shao Fang is indeed a political broker, and it seems that he has already set up an investment.

"He wants to visit the old man in the near future, what does Yuan Zuo think?" Xu Jie said slowly.

Of course, Xu Yuanzuo knew that Xu Jie was not asking for his opinion, but more of a kind of guidance to the juniors, and said: "If he can only take out tens of thousands of gold to go to Beijing to run for the elders." Then it doesn't make much sense to see it. ”

Xu Jie's face was expressionless, as if waiting for him to continue.

"But if the elder refuses to see him, I'm afraid he will immediately turn the head of the car and go to dredge up for Gao Xinzheng." Xu Yuanzuo paused: "Gao Xinzheng's person can't resist the temptation of righteousness, and most of them will be willing to cooperate with him." ”

"What will happen to the guys in the cabinet?" Xu Jie asked again.

Xu Yuanzuo was about to speak, but the words changed when they came to his mouth: "The kid is far away from the rivers and lakes, where does he know about the things above the temple, and how can he comment on the prime minister." ”

"You just said that Gao Xinzheng is very smooth, and those who don't know think you are a veteran of Kedao." Xu Jie's tone is not heavy, but this content is as heavy as a mountain. It is also thanks to Xu Yuanzuo's cleverness that he did not stop the precipice, otherwise it would not be a verbal lesson.

"It's a big mistake to show off the kid's hearsay! Please punish the elder. Xu Yuanzuo hurriedly got up and apologized, and his waist was arched into a shrimp.

The corners of Xu Jie's mouth rose faintly, and said, "You kid will bargain." As long as he is willing to "punish", he really treats Xu Yuanzuo as a grandchild and his own family. This kind of method of retreating as advance, dealing with others may still have a chance of success, and it is a little amusing when used in front of Xu Huating.

"The old man sees that you are a piece of jade, but you owe someone to ponder." Xu Jie stroked his beard gently: "Your family is originally from the same clan as my family, so Mo Ruo recognized Lu Qing as his father and was often taught." ”

Xu Yuanzuo didn't expect the world to smash down such a big piece of pie, and he was blinded.

Huaxia emphasizes the unification of literature and ignores blood, and the treatment enjoyed by stepsons and adopted sons is basically the same as that of the sons of blood relatives. is different from the "godfather" of later generations, the Ming people recognize that their father is true, whether it is daily life or mourning, it is the same as his own son.

And in this world, it is also very common to recognize fathers. There are two simple classifications, one of which is that the blood relatives of the clan pass the stepchildren in order to inherit the incense. The second is that you can get benefits if you recognize it, for example, if you recognize Master Lu as your father, you can be exempted from miscellaneous labor; For example, in "Dream of Red Mansions", Jia Yun recognized Jia Baoyu as her father and raised her identity.

Xu Fan's son Xu Yuanchun is already a student, and he sees that his grandson is about to come out. Therefore, Xu Jie's letting Xu Yuanzuo come to Xu Fan as his son is purely a benefit. Even if you can't get Xu Fan's family property, the intangible assets of the Xu family are extraordinary.

Seeing Xu Yuanzuo bored over there, Xu Jie was relieved: although this son is heavy-profit, he has his own sense of proportion in his chest, and he is not ungrateful.

"The elder and the eldest prince treat me like a mountain, and I don't know how to repay it." Xu Yuanzuo said slowly: "It's just that the matter of recognizing my father has to be decided by the adults in the family." ”

Xu Jie smiled: "This is naturally to be told to your family." ”

Xu Yuanzuo lowered his head and said secretly: I don't even ask if I am an only son, it seems that I have already investigated. Hey, even if my current watch xiàn wants to be rewarded, it is enough to give some silver. If it is a great reward to be able to continue the genealogy of the joint ancestry, why do you want to accept me as a son all of a sudden? Is this too much?
