Fan Yuan has raised Xiao Yuchen for more than ten years, and he has already regarded this child as his own, where can he say that he will give up?

"What do you mean, Mr. Xiao? How did my son become your son? There are many people who are similar in the world, are they all fathers and sons? With that, he was going to serve tea to the guests.

"Outside of Fan, if Xiao is not fully sure, it is impossible to talk nonsense, you are an understanding person, raised my son, I Xiao is grateful, don't shirk, Xiao Mou, kowtow to you." After speaking, he got up and was about to kneel, but was supported by Fan Yuanwai.

"Fan Yuanwai, the father-son relationship between you and Yu'er will never end because Xiao recognizes each other, but, you have a little brother like me, and I have a brother like you, you can be Yu'er's father-in-law, and you can choose to be his uncle, but my wife was killed, now, if I don't recognize him and go back to the Xiao family, how can Mrs. Xian feel at ease under the spring——"

Xiao Yi couldn't help it, his eyes became sour again, and he couldn't talk anymore.

Fan Yuanwai is also a temperamental, although he is really reluctant, but seeing Xiao Yi's sad appearance, he can't say anything more about refusal, so he holds Xiao Yi's arm: "Brother Xiao, get up, Fan will send someone to bring the group back now." ”

After speaking, the Lunfan member was sad, and his tone was a little choked.

Xiao Yi pulled Fan Yuanwai's arm: "Brother is younger, if you can do your part to take care of your nephew behind the old brother, you will have no regrets in this life." This is a promise, if Fan Yuanwai does not wait for the children to grow up, he will help take care of the two children who are still teenagers, although this is a bit reckless, but he really does not know how to express his gratitude.

Fan Yuanwai now, what he lacks is not money, what he lacks is time, he is old, but unfortunately his son is still young, when this kind of thing happens, the poor are worried about having no money to support, and the rich are worried about money, which will cause trouble and affect their son.

"Brother Xiao is in the capital, what do you do for a living?" Only then did Fan Yuanwai think of interrogating Xiao Yi.

"Ahem, don't hide it from Brother Fan, my real name is Xiao Yi, and I am the former general of Liang Guo......"

"Huh? Are you the famous General Xiao? How dare little old man call you a brother-"

"Fan doesn't have to be humble, Xiao is also an idler now, and he doesn't know that his children are still in the world for more than ten years, where is he worthy of Brother Fan's admiration, and he has no place to be ashamed!"

Fan Yuanwai thought that Xiao Yi's family must have suffered something, but he didn't dare to ask more for fear of getting involved in the court's major affairs, and Xiao Yi didn't continue to talk about it at the moment, not when he was talking about that.

After a while, Xiao Yi was afraid that Fan Yuan would have a stumble, so he explained: "The loss of brothers and children has completely fallen for the tricks of traitors, Fan Yuan Wai must not worry, when he returns to Beijing, he will tell the emperor to avenge my son and daughter." ”

Fan Yuanwai let out a sigh of relief.

Xiao Yuchen, now Fan Yiyang is back, and before he enters the living room, he speaks: "Daddy is anxious to ask the child to go home, but what's the big deal?" ”

When I entered the living room, I saw Xiao Yi and politely said, "I've seen Uncle Shi!" After saluting, seeing that Xiao Yi was very kind-faced, he couldn't help but look at it again, and felt even more familiar, and couldn't help but look at it again.

Fan Yuanwai looked at the two people in front of him, their manners and appearances were somewhat similar, the most similar was the voice of speaking, although one was young and clear, the other was old, and the voice was strong, but the difference was very small.

"Yinqun, this is your biological father, why don't you meet him soon."

"My biological father?" Xiao Yuchen was stunned, when he was bought, he was already three years old, and he had a faint impression in his mind, remembering that he was a firewood picker, but this impression was too vague, he thought it was just a remnant of a child's occasional dream.

I didn't expect that there really were other parents, what is going on?

Seeing Xiao Yi's eager eyes and tearful eyes, Xiao Yuchen couldn't help but kneel down and salute: "I've seen Daddy!" ”

"Yu'er-" Xiao Yi couldn't hold back any longer, and large teardrops rolled down his cheeks.

Xiao Yuchen was inexplicably sad, and couldn't help choking, the two hugged and cried, Xiao Yi's depression dissipated most of the time, and then he pulled his son and kowtowed to Fan Yuanwai together to thank him for his kindness.

Fan Yuanwai ordered someone to serve tea again, and told Xiao Yuchen about the process of buying him back then.

"Who is the one who sold me?"

"Your nurse! That slut, I wanted to send her to the government, but now, the person who plotted against you and your mother and sister is still at large, and my father has to leave her a dog for the time being. ”

No matter how anxious Xiao Yi was to find his daughter and take revenge, he was afraid that Fan Yuanwai would not be able to stand it for a while, so he stayed in Fan's Mansion for a few days before taking his son and leaving.

Fan was reluctant to give up and sent ten miles away.

The most inseparable thing is the two little sons of the Fan family, who have followed their brother's buttocks since they were children, playing and reading, and now they are forcibly separating, crying tears. Xiao Yuchen was also very sad, took the hands of the two brothers, and repeatedly promised that he would come back to see them, and also promised that he would pick up his parents and brothers and go to the capital for reunion. ”

Xiao Yi wrote the news of finding his son and sent it to the palace, and asked the emperor to let his eldest son inherit the title.

Emperor Yongchang didn't expect that Xiao Yi really found his son, so he would recognize his daughter Wen Jin when he returned to Beijing.

"Queen Mother, now, you can summon Qian Wenjin into the palace, right?" Emperor Yongchang was proud.

"Emperor, I'm afraid I have to wait for King Miao's envoy to enter Beijing." The Queen Mother reminded that this was not the Queen Mother's foresight, but Mrs. Shen Mingzhao, who had just entered the cabinet.

Su young age is older, and the character is very strong, after the Spring Festival, the weather will be hot and cold, the old man's body can not resist, suddenly stroke, although the imperial doctor acupuncture and drug conditioning, has been able to walk and talk, but the brain is far less sharp than before, he went to the book to beg for bones, Emperor Yongchang did not agree, only let him withdraw from the cabinet, crowned the prince Shaobao, let him live in Beijing for a long time.

Shen Mingzhao is more than ten years older than his fourth brother Shen Mingxi, and now he is almost fifty years old, calm and generous, smart and wise, especially honest and upright, and resourceful and decisive, the first emperor intended to let him enter Beijing to enter the cabinet to worship the prime minister, but at that time Liu Shanmin tried his best to obstruct it, so it did not happen, and now, Emperor Yongchang is about to entrust him with a heavy responsibility.

When Shen Mingzhao entered Beijing, his wife naturally wanted to visit the Queen Mother, just because they had been old acquaintances before.

Although Shen Mingzhao is far away from the rivers and lakes, he knows everything about what happened in the court, especially the affairs of his younger brother and nephew, he always remembers it, lest they make a mess.

Yanran gave birth to a little daughter in the summer, and the Qian family was overjoyed, although Yanran had some regrets, Wen Han comforted her: "Our family, what is lacking is a daughter, seeing that Wen Jin's father and mother are about to come and take her away, if there is no girl on top, how can you let your father, mother, and county lord's mother be embarrassed?" ”

"Besides, our family's feng shui is suitable for raising a daughter!"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yan Ran hurriedly snorted a few times, but her mood was much better, and when she looked at her little daughter every day, she found that she was very similar to Wen Jin.

Xiao Nan Nan has a pair of big black and white eyes, Wen Jin looks like her sister-in-law Yanran, but the whole family is like her in unison.

"It's not that the family doesn't enter the door, my sister-in-law and I are like each other." Wen Jin laughed at herself, and the whole family agreed: "That's true." ”

The Queen Mother took the opportunity to reward a lot of silk and satin, gold, silver and jade, and Wei Shi had no order to thank him, so he naturally asked the lord of Yujie to do it for him.

Without the county lord of Yujie, the queen mother would not have a long face for Qian Wenhan, a six-grade petty official.

The county lord of Yujie has completely taken the duck step, and the diet is also healthy, taking a walk for an hour every morning and evening, the whole person looks very energetic, but entering the palace alone, the whole family is still at ease, and finally Wen Jin accompanied her on this trip.

Besides, the Queen Mother is also very good to Wen Jin, and Wen Jin has to go into the palace every once in a while to see this lovely old lady.

The Queen Mother hinted that Wen Jin's parents found it, and the county lord of Yujie was surprised and delighted, and it was very difficult to give up, and his eyes were red at that time, and he almost fell off the golden bean.

Wen Jin looked at the tone of the queen mother, her father seemed to be from the capital, and her status was not low, after leaving the palace, her mood had been heavy, she didn't want to enter the palace, in that Quartet, intrigue with a group of women, and deal with a group of half-men, that day, it was better to die happily.

In addition to Wen Jin, there is another person who is worried, and that is Qian Jun. Although the Queen Mother promised to marry him before, but when she knew that the object was Wen Jin, the old lady never mentioned it again, every time he asked, the Queen Mother would talk about him left and right, and a few days ago, she even said: "As long as your father agrees, I will immediately make a decree." ”

If Prince Ren agrees, will Qian Jun still use this extra move to ask the Queen Mother for her will?

Prince Ren heard that Wen Jin was the daughter of Xiao Yi's original match, and his tone had been loosened, he was dissatisfied with Wen Jin being adopted before, and he grew up in the countryside, but now he heard that he got along very well with the lord of Yujie, and everyone he saw said that she was elegant and generous, moderate, modest and polite, and a rare good girl, so he changed his mind.

But Prince Ren didn't agree at first, not exactly what he meant, but the idea of Prince Ren Princess Liu Caiqin, the better Wen Jin, the heavier Liu Caiqin's sense of crisis, lest Qian Jun have a strong virtuous help, their mother and son have declined in power in this mansion, this day, I heard the maid say that the prince and Prince Ren had been talking secretly in the study for more than an hour, and when they came out, they were refreshed, what else did she not understand? After dinner, she returned to her room with Prince Ren and dismissed the servant, and in the blink of her eyes, two large tears flowed down her cheeks.

Prince Ren was shocked: "What is the matter with Concubine Ai? ”

"The concubine is uncomfortable physically and mentally. Lord, don't worry about it, after a while, the concubine will naturally be fine. ”

Prince Ren was distressed, where could he put it down? He couldn't help but hold his wife in his arms with pity: "Who messed with you?" Tell me. ”

"With the prince here, no one dares to mess with the concubine, the concubine is just ...... I'm just worried about the future, lord, woo, what will the concubine do in the future? ”

"I'll protect you."

"But we're all going to get old."

"Who never gets old? Don't worry. ”

"But the prince hates me, woo, lord, I really didn't know how to take children back then, I didn't mean to be ...... like this, woo-"

"He is a good boy, besides, the emperor uses him so much, and he won't think about these things all the time."

"But what about the princess? Woo-"

"Don't cry, let me think."

Prince Ren was speechless, he was clear in his heart, in the past few years in Western Xinjiang, every time his wife wrote a letter, it was the eldest son who was not good in this way, and the result? The son is a first-class talent, extraordinary martial arts, twitching, especially commendable, is particularly responsible, everything he wants to do, nothing is impossible.

But in the face of his wife's teary eyes, Prince Ren's brain was completely insufficient, and all his thoughts except pity and pampering were as if they had been washed away by water, and no reason existed.

In fact, when he was alone in the study, Prince Ren thought about this problem, and he felt that his wife might not really have bad intentions, but the children of his stepmother and ex-wife were originally natural enemies, and he thought that both parties had problems. But right now, the son's ability is there, and his status and future achievements can also be imagined, then, the one who is obviously at a disadvantage is his wife, he can't help but protect it, his son is a little wronged, it's nothing, not to mention, how can a manly man stare at a small world like his own family all day long?

Princess Ren was like being connected to Prince Ren's brain, and at this time, she sobbed softly: "Lord, do you have any ideas about the candidate for the princess?" ”

"Does Concubine Ai have a favorite?"

"No, but it has to be a tolerant and kind woman, right? You can't be too strong. ”

"This is natural, if you want to enter our house, you must be a first-class good girl, this temperament is the first important."

"Hmmm! It would be nice if it was like Mrs. Yunyangbo. "Mrs. Yunyang Bo has always been crushed to death by her mother-in-law, and now, her father-in-law has passed away, and the middle of Yunyang Bo's Mansion is still controlled by the old lady.

Prince Ren doesn't think there's anything wrong with this, this society, filial piety comes first, the old man has energy and can manage the house, she is willing to take care of the house, and when she is a junior, she naturally has to obey: "Well, I will consider it." ”

"Then I'll also help the prince look at each other?"

"Well, you're her mother, so naturally it's up to you to decide."

This is what Princess Ren wanted, she timidly wiped away her tears, nodded solemnly, and said, "I will do my best." She called the maid in, and washed her face, and then took care of her husband's sleep.

She has already made up her mind, anyway, it is what the prince likes, and she doesn't want any women who can be in harmony with him, so she can save the future, the little couple sings with the wife, and her mother-in-law has no status at home.

Qian Wenhan is also frowning these days.

It turned out that the Qing Officials Division in Shangjing, where he was located, had to audit the entire capital's reserve money, grain and other expenditures, as well as all the taxes of agriculture, industry and commerce, and the workload was very large, and he, from beginning to end, had never learned any bookkeeping and accounting, all of which had to rely on his small officials, these officials were all entrenched in the household department for generations, and the means of coaxing the bosses and officials emerged in endlessly, and to deal with the officials who were audited below, who was filial piety said whose accounts were clear, for example, he went to the Qing Officials Department of Liangzhong Province next door to visit, I actually saw that the taxes paid by Shanyang County and Shuiling County were about the same, and it was clear that Shanyang was much richer than Shuiling, and the comments given by the officials turned out to be that both counties were A-it was good to complete the tax.

How is this possible? But in the face of the mountain-like account books, Wen Han felt helpless, and after a few days of sadness, Wen Han suddenly remembered that Wen Jin's accounts on weekdays seemed to be very simple, so he humbly asked his sister for advice on a day off.

Wen Jin showed Wen Han his accounts, explained the method of bookkeeping, and how to use Arabic numerals, Wen Han was very surprised: "How did you come up with this?" ”

"Brother, didn't a few foreign nuns come to the house last winter? I learned from them. ”

Wen Han's eyes widened: "Didn't you ask them to draw some propaganda posters for the hotel?" ”

"Well, I'm also asking them other questions, and there's a lady from Masu who taught me how to keep accounts."

"This is really good."

Wen Han pondered Wen Jin's account book for a few days, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this bookkeeping method was good, he was under Lu Can, although he learned a lot of the truth of interacting with people, and knew that he should be low-key when he first entered the officialdom, but after all, he was only twenty-one years old, easy to be impulsive, and his temperament was also anxious, he actually wrote a notebook a month later, and attached a copy of the account book and the original account book that he rewrote with Arabic numerals, and handed it to Shangshu Hong Guogang.

Hong Guogang's youngest son is a son-in-law candidate selected by the lord of Yujie, and the cousin of the household department is not short of money, but is a master who is good at managing money. The news that the Queen Mother was going to marry Wen Jin had not yet spread, he heard that his wife had repeatedly praised Wen Jin for being good, and he was still dreaming of having a family with Qian Xiancong, so he naturally paid special attention to Qian Wenhan, hoping to repay the favor and confirm the marriage with the Qian family as soon as possible.

Wen Han's recital soon arrived at Emperor Yongchang's desk, and Hong Guogang praised Qian Wenhan especially in front of the emperor, especially admiring this method of bookkeeping, and believed that it should be implemented throughout the country.

Emperor Yongchang has always been very concerned about Wen Jin, and Guo Gonggong also said that Wen Jin is very quick to read the accounts, and Wen Han's twists and turns made him understand why Guo Anan said that.

Obviously, the method proposed by Wen Han has long been used by Qian Wenjin. What did this woman think, she dared to associate with red-haired and blue-eyed women, let them paint for their own hotels, and also use the method of keeping accounts, she was really not ordinary.

But it turns out that Qian Wenjin's choice was correct. Fannu's promotional poster is very expressive, making people can't help but have a great appetite at a glance, and some customers are attracted by the painting and go to Wen Jin's restaurant to feast on it.

As for this bookkeeping method, Emperor Yongchang also felt that it was very concise and clear, and it was much more labor-saving than Chinese character notation. It is said that Wen Han's proposal can greatly reduce the amount of labor of the bookkeepers and auditors, and also enable the management officials to see the accounts under their jurisdiction at a glance, but Hong Guo just released the news, which caused an uproar among the household officials.
