"May I ask you a favor?" Eleven Niang put Xu Lingyi's changed clothes on the small pestle on the side, and turned to look at Xu Lingyi with some surprise.

Xu Lingyi nodded: "In addition to letting Fan Weigang and Wang Li help stir up this troubled water, I also asked Xiao Wu and his friends to make trouble in private." ”

Eleven Niang's mind was spinning fast.

Fan Weigang and Wang Li are both ministers of the humerus that the emperor relies on, and they are good friends with Xu Lingyi. Otherwise, it will give the emperor the feeling of forming a party and being private.

Xu Lingkuan is different. First, he is Xu Lingkuan's younger brother, and secondly, although his friends are three-minded and ninth-rated, most of them are gentlemen. From them shouting in private, others saw it in their eyes, thinking that this was Xu Lingkuan complaining about his brother, and he led this matter to the affair, and the effect was only a hundred times better than Fan Weigang and Wang Li.

Xu Lingyi was very stunned when she said this.

He was responsible for the affairs of the family before, although considering that the third brother Xu Lingning Dunhou and the younger brother Xu Lingkuan were not good candidates to conspire with him, but the more important reason was that since he inherited the title, he should take on the responsibility of revitalizing the family business, taking care of his brother and brother, and side relatives. I just didn't expect it, it backfired. The more they do, the farther and farther they go between brothers. Let's not say that Xu Lingning acted passively, and Xu Lingkuan caused trouble. He fought with four fists with both hands, and although he fought happily, in the dead of night, when he was alone, he couldn't help but feel tired and a little dazed.

Later, there was a reminder from Eleven Niang, first of all, she talked to Xu Lingning about the moldy rice, breaking the barrier between the two of them that could not be seen and touched in the past few years, but it made people feel depressed. He also regarded Xu Lingkuan as a colleague who targeted him everywhere, and took out the means of subduing some unruly generals under his command during the Pingmiao Rebellion, and not only made him ashamed, but also took the initiative to admit his mistakes, and sincerely reviewed those words and deeds in the past in front of him for the first time.

His heart was moving.

Xu Lingkuan has changed from a smart and clever teenager to a gentleman who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun, and let eagles and horses go, in addition to poor discipline, he has a great relationship with being a young son, a wife, and himself who only knows how to spoil and never teach him seriously. If he finds something to do......

The thought flashed, and he thought of asking Xu Lingkuan to help him do something.

As soon as his mouth leaked, Xu Lingkuan immediately patted his chest and agreed. He also immediately proposed a solution—who among his friends was more impatient and fit to argue with others in public; Who is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, will talk about the east and then go to the west to make a fuss; Whoever is insatiable, as long as he can afford the money, is willing to do whatever he spits on...... It turned out to be clear and clear. It is how to prepare for it, and it is also said that the head is the way.

He was dumbfounded at the time - he didn't expect Xu Lingkuan to know so much about the people around him.

"If you know so well, why are you playing with these people?"

Xu Lingyi put down his brother's shelf, Xu Lingkuan felt very cordial, and said directly: "Who do I play with them if I don't play with them?" Besides, everyone is just having fun together, and they don't expect anyone to be sincere to whom! The tone sounded indifferent, but a hint of self-deprecation flashed in his eyes.

He was speechless.

The feeling of guilt in my heart could not be dissipated for a long time.

took the opportunity to come back and change clothes, and told these things to Eleven Niang: "I only watched him call friends and friends to get drunk and dream of death and be willing to fall, who knows that he is not happy......"

"It's not too late for Master Hou to know now!" Eleven Niang smiled and helped him change into a newly made dark blue plain brocade forging robe, "And the fifth master also knows the difficulties of the Hou Ye and the Xu family." In the future, with the help of the fifth master, you can also worry less. ”

"I don't dare think of doing me a favor." Xu Lingyi sighed, "I just hope that he won't make trouble everywhere in the future, and I'll be satisfied." ”

A helpless fatherly tone.

Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile. He hesitated again: "It's just that in this way, everyone will say that the fifth master is reckless and not a person who has achieved great things." Do you want to say hello to the old marquis Sun in the red light alley......"

Although she has only met Old Marquis Sun once, she always feels that it is definitely not so simple to raise a daughter like the fifth lady.

"No, you don't." Xu Lingyi said with a smile, "Don't look at Old Marquis Sun's big grin, but you understand it in your heart!" You must know that the first emperor didn't know how many princes and ministers he had killed in his later years, but he never suspected him of being an old man. ”

It seems that my feelings are quite correct.

Eleven Niang nodded with a smile, helped Xu Lingyi straighten her clothes, and said casually: "It's still the Hou Ye's thoughtfulness." The concubine only asks for peace and security at home, and she is satisfied with abundant food and clothing. ”

"Qingtai is safe, there is plenty ......of food and clothing," Xu Lingyi laughed, "This is not an easy task." If you want to be safe and secure, you must ensure that the glory lasts for a long time, and if you want to have enough food and clothing, you must ensure that the wealth continues to ......" with some emotion

Eleven Niang was stunned.

She just had nothing to say, but she didn't expect to attract Xu Lingyi's words.

When he says "glory", he means "power", and "wealth" means "money", right?

If you think about it, it's true.

Without power, who will look at you? In this society with the saying of "county Yin who breaks the door", the petty officials of Qipin Sesame can find an excuse to falsely accuse you of rebellion. Without money, even if you are a member of the three grades in the court, how can you live on those slurs and live without being greedy or taking anything? is greedy and taking, but he loses the way of a gentleman and is humble, which inevitably makes people look down on him, and even one day the East Window incident happened and he lost his power.

I don't know how many people in the camp pursue that glory and wealth, in the final analysis, they just want to live more comfortably, steadily, and safely. But as he walked, he forgot his original intention, put the cart before the horse, and became a slave of glory and wealth, forgetting that the pursuit of these things outside his body was to make his life more enjoyable......

Just like yourself. I worked hard to gain Mrs. Tai's trust, and I worked hard to become Xu Lingyi's confidant, but the ultimate goal was just to live a leisurely life of "watching flowers and drinking alone". But before that, he must obtain the qualification to be able to "live a leisurely life".

Thinking about it this way, his situation is similar to Xu Lingyi.

Xu Lingyi wants the Xu family to be an idle and wealthy family, and he must first obtain such qualifications.

There are no capable people in the family, whether it is the emperor or the minister's family, no one will take this family in their eyes, and even if there is anything, this family will be the first to be eliminated; If there is a figure in the family who can worship the prince and influence the political situation of the court, the emperor is afraid that you will plant the party to control the government for personal gain, and the duke's family is afraid that you will be arrogant and the Xuanhe family will take away their own interests...... How to grasp this degree is the top priority of the Xu family.

I hope Xu Lingyi can grasp this opportunity and find a balance to make the Xu family stand more stable.

While thinking wildly, she smiled and said, "The concubine is shallow in the end, and she doesn't have the heart and vision of the marquis." ”

"That's not it." Xu Lingyi smiled and tugged at his sleeve, "You just have a gentle temperament, and you are not good at arguing with others, so you don't think about it." ”

Eleven Niang was stunned.

She just felt that there were some things that she couldn't rush too far. How could it give Xu Lingyi the feeling of "gentle temperament"......

Eleven Niang didn't have time to think about it, Xu Lingyi had already changed the topic: "Are you all cleaned up?" Hurry up and go to my mother's place when you're ready! With that, he turned and walked out of the inner room.

She hurriedly followed him out of the inner room.

Seeing that the three aunts had arrived, Eleven Niang put on a cloak, let Amber hold Xu Sijie, and the group went to Mrs. Tai.

This time they arrived early, and Mrs. Tai was changing her clothes.

Brother Zhen was already waiting in the hall. gave a salute to Xu Lingyi and Eleven Niang, but a pair of eyes looked directly at Xu Sijie's body.

Eleven Niang knew that he had always been afraid of Xu Lingyi, and he must have wanted to play with Xu Sijie and was afraid that Xu Lingyi would be unhappy, so she pushed Xu Lingyi to sit in the east room: "I'll wait for the third master here." ”

Xu Lingyi saw that there were either women or children in the house, and he felt bored and went to the east room.

Brother Zhen really ran to Amber's side: "Tell my brother, give me a salute quickly." The corners of his eyes and eyebrows couldn't hide his smugness.

Xu Sijie didn't look at Brother Chen.

Brother Chen couldn't hide his disappointment and looked at Eleven Niang. As if asking, why doesn't he play with me?

Eleven Niang smiled and led Xu Sijie to Brother Zhen, and said softly: "This is your fourth brother, I will call the fourth brother when I see you in the future!" ”

Xu Sijie hesitated for a long time and shouted softly, "Fourth Brother".

Although the voice is low, it is very nice.

Brother Zhen was very surprised, and looked up to Eleven Niang and said, "The fifth brother's voice is better than Huang Ying's." ”

Eleven Niang couldn't help but smile bitterly. Fortunately, Brother Zhen is sincere praise and doesn't think much about it. took out a small oiled paper bag from his arms and said, "If you call me Fourth Brother, I will give you the candy made of rose juice for you to eat." As he spoke, he opened the oiled paper bag, revealing the rose-red, crystal-clear and crystal-like candy inside.

Not to mention the young Xu Sijie, even Aunt Wen and Aunt Qiao also looked over curiously, only Aunt Qin looked out on tiptoe, and muttered "Why hasn't the second young master come yet?"

Xu Sijie was really bought by this sugar, his eyes stared straight at the sugar, and he immediately called Brother Zhen "Fourth Brother".

Brother Zhen smiled happily and took a piece of candy to Xu Sijie.

Who knew that Xu Sijie was not satisfied, put the sugar in his mouth, and then stretched out his palm towards Brother Chen, meaning more.

When Brother Zhen saw it, he immediately gave him another one.

Xu Sijie clenched it tightly in his hand and stretched out his other hand.

Brother Zhen hesitated, took a piece of candy himself, thought about it, took a few more, and then gave the rest to Xu Sijie.

Xu Sijie immediately put the candy in his arms in a hurry.

The room full of people laughed out loud at him.

Brother Zhen also smiled heartily, and pulled Xu Sijie's hand disapprenosingly: "I still have osmanthus crisp there." It was also rewarded by the palace. As he spoke, he was going to go to his house with Xu Sijie.

The mother on the side hurriedly stopped: "My little ancestor, I'm about to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." You can't let Mrs. Tai wait. After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, it is not too late for you to go and find the osmanthus crisp for the fifth young master. ”

As he was talking, the third master and the third lady led Xu Siqin, Xu Siyu and Xu Sijian in.

Aunt Qin, who was standing behind Eleven Niang, let out a long breath.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and everyone is going to get together for a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. You can't be too late at this time to leave a bad impression on the elders.
