Chapter 98: The Most Important Thing
The next day, Yan Cheng asked, and Zhao Guo said fairly: "Xiao Er is very troublesome, your mother indulges him again, and thinks about it for his father, it is better to find a chance to meet this Miss Xu San, if the character is passable, just follow his wishes!" ”
Yan Cheng was surprised: "Father! "I was obviously moved by him before!
However, Zhao Guogong had made up his mind, remembered his wife's words last night, patted him on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "Ah Cheng, although the great cause is important, the peace and joy of our family is the foundation. I have been planning for many years for the Father so that you will no longer be subject to others. If you are allowed to endure grievances for this reason, will it not be a matter of sacrificing your roots? ”
These words carried the meaning of persuasion, Yan Cheng's face suddenly turned red, and he shouted, "Father! ”
Seeing that he was embarrassed, Zhao Guogong couldn't bear it, and said in a soft tone: "It's not that you're wrong, you have been sensible and competitive since you were a child, and you have paid a lot for your family." But because I'm too sensible, sometimes I'd rather wronged myself, and my mother and I feel distressed when we look at it! ”
Yan Cheng softened his face and said, "Father, don't say that, I am your eldest son, this is all a responsibility that should be borne, even if I suffer some grievances, I am willing." ”
Zhao Guogong shook his head: "No, for me and your mother, the most important thing is that your brother is happy. We always scold Ah Ling for being willful, but he is happy as he wants, which is gratifying to think about. ”
Yan Cheng had heard these words from his mother before, but he didn't take them seriously. My mother is a back-house woman, how do I know how difficult it is to support such a big family business? Sacrifice is inevitable. He thought that his father thought the same as himself, but today he learned that it was not.
"But I'm the first......" he muttered.
"Who said that because you are the eldest son, you have no right to be willful?" Zhaoguo Gong feigned anger, "Is it possible, if you don't marry the Yan family, you will fall?" Then you look down on your father too much, the current strength of the Zhaoguo Mansion is based on more than 20 years of hard work for your father, not by marriage. ”
Seeing that the eldest son was in a trance, knowing that he needed time to think about these words, Zhao Guogong smiled and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, anyway, there is nothing to do today, you might as well take a vacation, talk to friends, or go out to play, and take a break." ”
After saying that, he patted his eldest son's arm and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Yan Cheng was stunned for a moment, then turned around and went back.
When I walked to the garden, I just heard Yan Ji's shouting: "Left left, left, run faster!" Oops, look at others when you run! ”
He looked up and saw that Yan Ji was directing the little guy to fly a kite. The kite was huge, made in the shape of a centipede, several feet long, and several people dragged it and ran without putting it up.
This little two is playing in a different way, right?
Yan Cheng's eyes searched the garden, and sure enough, he saw Yan Ling lying on the branch of the tree and knocking melon seeds.
He doesn't try it himself, he still has to point fingers.
"I can't run neatly, how can I put it up?"
"The thread is going to be torn off by you."
"It's stupid!"
Yan Cheng wanted to laugh, he was really, he couldn't do something serious?
Just thinking about it, Yan Ling saw him, sat up and waved here: "Big brother! ”
Yan Cheng walked over, saw him jump down from the tree, jumped in front of him in a few steps, and said with a smile: "It's really the sun coming out in the west, why are you here?" ”
At this point in time, he is usually either in the barracks or in the yamen.
Yan Cheng also smiled and replied, "Rest today." I'm so busy every day that I'm tired to death. ”
Yan Ling's eyes lit up, showing a look of approval, patted him on the shoulder, and pretended to be old: "That's right!" Anyway, with my father here, I should be lazy, I am lazy, big brother, you finally want to open it. ”
"What?" Yan Cheng disagreed, "Father is so tired, you don't help share it, and you are still arrogant." ”
Yan Ling could be more reasonable, and said: "Father can not be tired, what are we doing with so many officials and staff?" There are some jobs for them to do, we just need to check them, otherwise what's the use of creating such a big business? Isn't it just to make us have a good life? ”
What is the ...... Yan Cheng couldn't help but think of what his father said, it was really the same.
He had a subtle feeling. There are four people in the family, the mother is in charge of the back house, and the younger brother has done whatever he wants since he was a child, he thought that he and his father had the same idea, and it was the pillar that supported the family, but he didn't expect that they understood each other and had the same mind, and he was the one who was different.
Thinking of this, he fixed his eyes.
The two brothers look very different, his father Xiao, Yan Ling Xiao's mother, this is something that has been recognized since childhood. But now that he looked at it, he found that Yan Ling's eyebrows and nose bridge were very similar to his father, and even more similar than him.
Yan Cheng was inexplicably unhappy in his heart, but after thinking about it carefully, he had no reason to be unhappy.
Shaking off this feeling, he smiled and nodded his brother's forehead affectionately: "Just you will say!" ”
Yan Ling was surprised: "Big brother, what's wrong with you?" Did you meet a monster last night? Or did you go out today and hit the door? ”
Yan Cheng was inexplicably surprised by him: "What are you talking about?" It's a mess. ”
Yan Ling said: "You don't actually scold me!" ”
Yan Cheng was stunned for a moment and smiled: "It's normal that I have to scold you, right?" ”
Sure that the eldest brother is in a good mood today, Yan Ling spoke casually: "Originally, you will scold me when you have the opportunity, and my father is not as strict as you." ”
This time, he used to say, but Yan Cheng had a different mood and experience today, and replied with a smile: "Well, I was too strict." ”
After all, he is just an elder brother, and his father doesn't think anything about it, and he cares too much.
Yan Cheng opened his heart and asked him, "What did you tell your mother about Miss Xu San?" ”
At the mention of this, Yan Ling glanced at him vigilantly.
With this look, Yan Cheng wanted to scold him again: "Yes, there is, what is there to say in front of the eldest brother?" ”
Yan Ling hesitated: "Big brother, don't you disagree......"
"What if I don't agree? If you have to, what can I do? ”
What does this mean......
Yan Ling was overjoyed: "Big brother, so you agreed?" ”
Seeing him like this, Yan Cheng smiled: "Look at your appearance!" Big brother thinks it's inappropriate, but do you like it, what's the solution? ”
Yan Ling hugged him happily: "I know that the eldest brother is the best!" Don't worry, I will take good care of her in the future! ”
Yan Cheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw him swearing.
My father was right, and it was a good thing that he was happy.
Finally, the eldest brother agreed, and Yan Ling couldn't wait to pull him to his father to make it clear, so that he could say it accurately.
Yan Cheng was helpless: "My father just promised to let me rest for a day, and you have to take me to the study." ”
Yan Ling flattered: "Just one word, it's good if my father agrees, okay?" ”
What else can Yan Cheng say? I can only nod: "Okay, okay, hurry up and say." ”
The brothers entered the study, but they didn't know that Zhaoguo Gong looked solemn, and threw over a piece of information: "I'm afraid that the matter of Xiao Er will not work, and the Xu family will marry the king of Dongjiang." ”
