Chapter 77: Change of Status
The atmosphere at the scene seemed to have eased down because of the initiative of Wang Defu's two uncles.
And in such a situation, perhaps the most embarrassing thing is the old lady Wang who fell into silence again, and the fourth uncle Wang Haiguang, who took the initiative to attack Wang Defu's side, but was crushed.
Wang Haiguang had quietly slipped behind the old lady Wang at this time, it seemed that only this old father who had always indulged him could give him a sense of security, he didn't dare to scold Wang Defu anymore, but stared at Wang Mo'er with a resentful gaze.
Speaking of which, Wang Haiguang has achieved nothing now, and the most blameworthy is the old lady Wang, after all, he is an old man, and he can't spoil it the most, but after finding out that Wang Haiguang is no longer able to straighten up, it is completely late.
Wang Haiguang's age is not much older than Wang Defu, and the lesson of Wang Haiguang's education failure made Wang Laoda's old lady treat Wang Defu even harder, as if as long as Wang Defu is educated well, he can make up for his failure in Wang Haiguang's education.
All in all, Wang Defu is like a box, any old lady Wang's will must be stuffed into him, but Wang Defu is resolute and self-reliant, so he will not be easily manipulated by others, so he becomes more and more rebellious, of course, such rebellion is only reflected in these two, and he has due respect for other relatives.
Just because in the heart of the original owner Wang Defu, whether it is his fourth uncle Wang Haiguang or the old lady Wang, they are the direct reasons why his life is so restricted, and he will never regard these two as relatives.
After all, it should be pointed out that he is already very old, although his body is still very tough, but in the future, Wang Haiqing or Wang Haiquan will be the one who will be the head of the family, when these two people who are most likely to become the head of the family release their goodwill to Wang Defu, Wang Defu's situation will naturally reverse.
Mrs. Wang is no longer able to continue to coerce Wang Defu in this situation, because Wang Defu has indeed walked out of a broad road of his own, if he is completely family-oriented, then he should now be like his second and third sons, as much as possible to create conditions for Wang Defu to go further and further in the literary world, instead of continuing to want him to be a soldier, otherwise this will definitely force Wang Defu to no longer have any sense of belonging to the family.
But how could the old lady Wang spit on himself like this, he just snorted coldly, and went back to the house without looking back, he could only use this way to maintain his last face.
Feng'er, the maid who serves the old lady Wang every day, looked at Wang Defu's eyes at the moment she followed the old lady Wang, full of awe, she knew that she had lost the qualification to hate Wang Defu, and when she faced this third young master in the future, she must not have any disrespect.
Even Old Lady Wang can't help the third young master, let alone her subordinate?
And from now on, when the people of the Wang family talk about the third young master in private, they will definitely not be as unscrupulous as before, and dare to belittle the third young master in various ways.
After Mrs. Wang left, Wang Haiqing and Wang Haiquan chose to go to the room of the long house to sit and greet for a while, or to learn more about Wang Defu's achievements.
Wang Haiqing and Wang Haiquan are not worried about being angry with Mrs. Wang because they have been taught by Mrs. Wang since they were children to put the family first, and to treat the outstanding descendants of the family, they must be well supported, so that the family can be more united and prosperous.
Those families with serious infighting and even the outstanding juniors in the family have to be suppressed may have been eliminated by history long ago.
And Wang Haiqing and Wang Haiquan both have their own basic plates, and sometimes they don't need to look at Mrs. Wang's face at all, but they maintain respect for their father.
After the dispute that broke out in this outbreak disappeared invisibly, the content of the private discussion of the Wang family's subordinates has become like this-
"The third young master of Defu is really the return of the king this time, and he has become a writer quietly, so that the old lady will no longer coerce him because of this."
"Such a young writer means that he will definitely have a great future in the future, and after his reputation grows, he may be invited to be a high-ranking official, which is the glory of the entire Wang family!"
"I really didn't expect this third young master to go out of his own way under the control of the old lady, this is too powerful, right?"
"In these years, the status of literati, scholars, and writers is quite high, and the remuneration is much higher than that of ordinary people, no wonder the third young master can easily buy back so many valuable gifts, I really envy the people of the long house, they seem to have New Year's goods that can only be bought in the magic capital......"
"Before, there were still people who spread the rumors that the third young master borrowed usury, he was not the one who was good at all, with the character of the third young master, how could he do such a ruined thing? Now the truth is finally revealed, the third young master is indeed the future of the Wang family! ”
"If you look at it this way, the third young master refused to arrange an arranged marriage, and he did it right, a handsome and talented person like the third young master was recruited as a concubine by the princess of the empire, and it is not surprising that the Wang family may also become a relative of the emperor at that time!"
……
On this night, Wang Defu, the third young master who was once considered rebellious and rude by the government, now because he entered the literary world, suddenly reversed everyone's impression of him, just because of his future potential.
Of course, this can also be seen from the side how lofty the status of writers in this era is.
In the eyes of many people, great writers seem to be equated with big officials, and many high-ranking officials actually like to write books and talk about it, otherwise they will ask someone to write their own biography to increase their fame, or how can they let the voters know about him?
The people who had the right to vote in the empire were obviously the kind of people who owned assets, and as for the poor who had no money, of course, they were not qualified to have the right to vote, and they were not qualified to be citizens, or they would be servants, peasants, workers, and other lowly working people in their own country, or they would go to the colonies.
Wang Defu himself doesn't care about his status in the Wang family at all, anyway, in his opinion, this Wang family will definitely be separated after the death of the old lady Wang, he will only be good to his closest relatives in this room, as for his second uncle and third uncle, they are relatively normal relatives, they can help each other, and they will get together to contact their feelings during the New Year's holidays, and Wang Haiguang is a superb relative, Wang Defu directly expelled him from his relatives.
However, Wang Defu is a lot cleaner at home this time, as long as he says that he wants to read and write, no one will dare to disturb him, what if the future of the third young master is ruined?
The third young master is going to be a big official in the imperial capital in the future!
