Chapter 245: It's not easy to support a family
"We didn't let women go to war, it's already tolerant. Miss Chu Liu, the official family is doing things, but you can't be presumptuous! ”
What kind of troublemaker Chu Jiayin is, everyone knows very well. If it weren't for Chu Liangshan's face, she would have been gone by now.
Chu Jingming glanced inside, motioned for Chu Jiayin to go back, and said, "Yinyin, go back quickly." You have been smart and clever since you were a child, and there are still many things at home waiting for us juniors to help the elders share little by little, and my brothers are not here, so I can only ask you. Mother and the third aunt are not young, if there is anything you need help, please help. ”
"Third brother, fifth brother." Chu Jiayin was already anxious just thinking that his second brother was going to go to the battlefield.
Who would have thought that the third and fifth brothers, who had never dealt with martial arts, would also go to the battlefield where they would lose their lives at any time. Thinking that the two elder brothers who used to have to be served by someone to do anything, and who couldn't move dozens of catties to move things, were going to go to the battlefield, the tears in Chu Jiayin's eyes couldn't stop flowing down.
Where is it possible for them to return safely, if they really go up, they must be hacked to death!
"But you don't know martial arts at all, and you don't even touch the spring water with your fingers, and you can't even lift a bucket of water! Whoa—did you go to war to die? No! Chu Jiayin cried as she spoke, "You guys are not as good as me, let you go to the battlefield, it's better for me to go!" I can top 10 of you alone! ”
The two brothers who were ruthlessly hurt looked at each other, and after hearing this, they felt a lot more comfortable. Knowing that there is a younger sister in the family who is anxious about them, this is on the battlefield, and she will always be more careful. I just don't know if I can come back. As Chu Jiayin said, the two of them are indeed useless gentlemen, at most they can write and memorize books.
I knew that today, I really studied hard and was admitted to the imperial examination, wouldn't it be stable to be a civil official? It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.
"What are you capable of besides being big? Ahh......h
She was more worried about these two than worried about her second brother. The second brother is both civil and military, and it is not a problem to fight wits and courage, these two have no brains and no martial arts, what else can they do except send them to death?
Chu Jiayin's cry even sucked away with Chu Jingyang. In the end, it was a maid and peach blossom who dragged Chu Jiayin away, and then the two who were sent to death were taken away by the officers and soldiers, and then there was an earth-shaking parting sadness.
When the people left, Chu Jiayin didn't want to cry very much. But my heart is still blocked, why did all the bad things happen to happen to meet when they grow up? Or are these sufferings waiting for them to grow up?
Looking back on the old days, I was carefree and there were no wars and disputes. How did it come to the age when they could go to war, war, etc., to be touched?
In the dark, it really seems that the heavens have prepared a catastrophe for them.
Chu Jiayin, who has never believed in Buddhism, followed his second aunt and third aunt to worship Buddha in the mourning hall and pray for several elder brothers. There are really three long and two short, and there is only one left in the Chu family, which no one looked down on before, and now they can't look down on the Chu goodness of their Chu family.
Chu Liangshan didn't have the slightest intention of recognizing his ancestors and returning to his ancestors at first glance, and it was completely impossible to expect him to spread out in the future.
Moreover, it is rumored everywhere in the court that he has a habit of breaking his sleeves, who knows if it is true or not, and whether he will like women.
The third aunt sent her only son away, and fell ill the next day, and the trivial matters that were originally shared by the two ladies now fell on the second aunt. The two uncles were running around, one happened to be doing business in the south, and his life and death were uncertain, and the other was also outside several cities, and he didn't know if he had ever been safe.
In the main family of the Chu Mansion in Kyoto City, there were only the old and weak women and children, and there were two thieves who were bent on snatching the Chu family's property.
It didn't take long for even the second lady to be exhausted. Sister Jane's profuse hemorrhage scared the two families a lot, but fortunately, in the end, the mother and son were safe, and they could recover after a period of rest, which was also a false alarm.
Chu Jiayin just opened a teahouse, and now he hasn't even invited a storyteller, and he hasn't written a notebook. Before his career started, he collapsed.
"Girl, rest early." Peach Blossom looked at Chu Jiayin worriedly, and added a bright light to Chu Jiayin.
Chu Jiayin looked at the account book at home from beginning to end, recorded all the faults that could be picked out in the book, and then began to analyze how to fill the loopholes. These days, the two ladies have not bothered to take care of the family property. There are omissions in many places, and those shopkeepers who help with the work are in danger because of the war.
It's not easy to sort these things out and handle them properly.
"Pour me a cup of tea." Chu Jiayin touched the teapot and it was empty.
Peach Blossom's face was full of worry and said, "Girl, if you continue to stay up like this, you will be tired." ”
Chu Jiayin slapped the table suddenly, and said with a very bad temper: "If I don't boil, who will?!" Could it be that I'm going to give these things to those two women?! ”
The clear-headed masters in the family are really only Chu Yun and Ruan Xiangling who can still walk and dance. If Chu Jiayin lets it go, then the two of them don't know how happy they are!
Hand over these ledgers to them, and don't even think about getting them back in this life.
"Then you can rest first, and see it tomorrow?" Peach Blossom had never seen her own girl, and her face was so ugly and haggard when she was not sick.
I've seen the third lady and the second lady fall ill before, and Peach Blossom is really scared now. Chu Jiayin is falling, and the family is really over.
"Otherwise, let the fourth master come and see." Peach Blossom pursed her lips, feeling that it was not suitable, but she really couldn't think of any other way.
Chu Jiayin shook his head and said, "My father, except for spending all day and drinking, he has never learned serious things in his life. Maybe you can't even read all the words in the ledger, and count on him? Impossible! ”
Chu Jiayin took out the abacus and continued to check the problems in the account book. Another candle flame burned to the end, and Chu Jiayin still didn't plan to rest.
Peach Blossom couldn't persuade her, until Chu Jiayin was so tired that she lay on the table, and the sound of the abacus in the room stopped.
Peach Blossom approved a quilt for Chu Jiayin, and then went out to cook her some decoction to nourish her body. As soon as I went out, Peach Blossom realized that I hadn't seen Ru Yun for several days.
"Did the second son take Ru Yun away?" Peach Blossom wiped the sweat from her forehead, which was very strange, but thinking about it, Ru Yun was so beautiful and did things properly, and the master should like it.
But...... Chu Jiayin seems to like the second son, if Ru Yunzhen has anything to do with Chu Jingyan, Peach Blossom really doesn't dare to think about that kind of scene. Peach Blossom also talked to Ru Yun at the beginning, and exchanged the types of people they liked in their hearts, and Ru Yun said that she liked Chu Liangshan's kind.
The second son, Chu Jingyan and Chu Liangshan, are not the same type at all, it is impossible to say that they will change, right?
The only thing that is the same, maybe they are all very handsome?
……
Not long after Lu Qiu Jiaxu arrived at Chu Liangshan's mansion, the account office was under his control. Anyway, this little guy is idle when he's idle, so it's better to find him something to do.
Chu Liangshan also never expected that this kid in his early teens would keep accounts so quickly.
"I'll calculate all the money you copied from your house." Lu Qiu Jiaxu threw the account book on Chu Liangshan.
He had just come out of the palace, and he was sleepy, so he lay down on the chaise longue and fell asleep. Lu Qiu Jiaxu came to this and woke him up alive.
"Eh, you kid, do you have a little gratitude, I'm your savior." Chu Liangshan took a look at the account book, and Qian had inspected Luqiu in two days, and he was very relieved now, and he glanced at it roughly, and he was relieved that it was in his budget.
Throwing the account book back, Chu Liangshan didn't sleep, sat up, and said, "Do you want me to tell you what you were doing when I first saw you?" Uh-huh? ”
Chu Liangshan raised his eyebrows at the child and smiled evilly.
Lu Qiu Jiaxu has a very good memory, and he knows very well what happened when they met for the first time. didn't want Chu Liangshan to say that kind of embarrassing thing, so he hurriedly stopped: "You are enough, there are some things, it's better to forget!" Otherwise, you won't be able to remember these things until I beat you! ”
"Really?" Chu Liangshan stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and he fished out Luqiu's commendation.
Lu Qiu Jiaxu was careless at his feet, and he planted it in Chu Liangshan's arms.
"Oh, I'm obedient, you're such a thin person, why are you so heavy?" Lu Qiu Jiaxu is not as tall as Chu Jia now, he is indeed thin and small, but this body of bones is really not light.
Lu Qiu Jiaxu hurriedly got up, but another one didn't step steadily, and fell down again. Coincidentally, He Hao came in from the door, and when he saw this scene, he covered his face again and again but did not cover his eyes: "Senior brother, it's not good to be like this during the day." ”
"!" Chu Liangshan held Lu Qiu Jiaxu up, "How is it, everything is done?" ”
He Haoshen mysteriously hid and didn't say anything, and asked: "Senior brother, you are at ease, you call me to run errands for everything, and lie here by yourself?" ”
"Or else? Can I still let you eat my rice for nothing? Chu Liangshan hugged his arms, looking sleepy, he was really not lazy this time, he was busy tossing and turning for a few days, but he was sleepy.
"Didn't your sister say that we are your three wives and four concubines? How can you be entertained? He Hao couldn't help but joke with him.
Chu Liangshan squinted his eyes and said, "Three wives and four concubines? Cut, are you enough for three wives and four concubines? Less nonsense, something for me! ”
He stretched out his hand and asked He Hao for something he wanted to carry behind him. I've seen it for a long time, and I'm still hiding.
He Hao threw the notebook in his hand to Chu Liangshan and asked him to see the details for himself. Chu Liangshan dozed off, turned the pages of the book, looked at the page and frowned: "Oops, why are you so annoying?" ”
"Over there in the Chu family, your sister seems to be alone and has to shoulder the burden of supporting the family."
