Chapter 6 Return to the Horse Pistol
There is a sentence in the "Analects", called "I am afraid of the worries of Ji Sun, not in the moment, but within the Xiao Wall".
This is the origin of the idiom "woe to Xiao Wall", which is generally used to refer to the chaos caused by the family or the people around him.
That's why at this moment, he will mention it like this with the businessman surnamed Yang.
Boss Yang does such a big business, his vision and brain are naturally enough, and when he heard the little carpenter say this, he thought of many things at home in recent days, and couldn't help but nod in agreement.
First, his favorite little wife ran away with someone for some reason, and then he was robbed to the mountains by the bandits and couldn't get down.
The fifth aunt is the one who is most likely to influence his decision.
Immediately afterwards, the three sons of the most unfavored partial house were inexplicably crushed to death.
Then someone tried to kill his eldest son.
If it succeeds, who will come next?
Is it him, or his second son, who is most favored, or is it the youngest son who is five years old?
Boss Yang's mind turned, and anger suddenly appeared on his face, and he instructed his relatives around him and said: "Call everyone in each room and courtyard to the front yard hall, and no one can be missing, all go over ......."
He was so angry that he dared to ask more, answered, and then went to call someone.
The little carpenter knew that this was his private matter, so he said: "There is still some time, I have to go to the latrine to do something, and find out the disgusting medium that affects the fortune of your house and feng shui, so it is inconvenient to accompany you." β
Boss Yang didn't dare to snub him, he said yes again and again, and sent a trustworthy son to accompany him, telling Mr. Gan that if he had any requirements, he would definitely meet them.
The little carpenter took the son of the family to the edge of the east courtyard, and as he walked, he asked the son of the family who followed him: "Your lord, how do you treat the people in the family on weekdays?" β
The son of the family smiled and said, "The old man is benevolent, naturally it is excellent." β
Then the little carpenter asked, "What about the people in the house?" β
The son of the family bowed down again and said: "That must be good, the degree of food and clothing is never short......"
The little carpenter couldn't help but smile when he saw that he was full of kind words, and looked at his worn-out clothes with several patches: "I came here as a normal matter, not the eyes and ears sent by your master." But when you say this, you say it, and I put it in my ears, and no one else knows. If you tell me the truth, I will be able to prescribe the right medicine and get things done, and you won't have to worry about it when you go back to this house, right? β
He said sincerely, the son of the family scratched his head, smiled awkwardly, and then said: "The master is actually very good, but this industry is not inherited by the ancestors, but he has worked hard by himself, and he has suffered too much, so it is inevitable to be harsh on people and things......"
The little carpenter asked, "What about your own family?" β
The same is true for the sons of the family, basically just to meet the normal needs, and there is almost no treatment for the children of large families, such as the third young master who has just passed away, he wants to go to Beiping or Jinling to study, but the master does not give tuition and entanglement, and finally has to give up......
The little carpenter listened, nodded, and asked, "Which son does your master prefer?" β
The son of the family replied: "The master is away all the year round, busy with business, I can't say who I particularly like, if I have to talk about it, I think it should be the second young master." β
The little carpenter asked, "Why?" β
The son of the family replied: "Because the second young master has a good background, his mother is the daughter of the county teacher, a scholarly family, although my father has retired over the years, but he has many protΓ©gΓ©s, and now they are all active in the state and county, and he can speak." Therefore, the master will still take care of the second aunt and the second young master to some extent, and he is not so demanding. β
