Chapter Twenty-Three: Compassion and Sullenness Are Together

Fan Xian was in pain, his face was bitter, he stretched out the tip of his tongue and licked his broken lips, and suddenly found a trace of sweetness, only then did he know that Wan'er's anger that she had been holding back these days had exploded in this bite. He pondered his words and said cautiously, "I don't want to say anything else, but I think it's ...... You have some hard work on these rΓ¬zi. ”

Lin Wan'er turned over in his arms and said vaguely, "What's the pain?"

"I don't have time for you. Fan Xian thought for a while and said, "Now that my sister and brother have arrived in Northern Qi, and Ye Ling'er is married again, it is impossible for Rou Jia to play with you...... Out of Kyoto, down to Jiangnan, and to Shanzhou, you must not even have a person around you who speaks to yourself, and besides, they are all strange places. ”

Before she finished speaking, Lin Wan'er's big eyes were already foggy, and she sighed softly: "You are a ...... If you want to say that you have no heart, but you also know this, if you want to say that you have a heart, how can you bear to treat me like this. ”

Fan Xian's heart was a little chilling when he heard this, coughed twice, and asked, "What should I do to you?"

"Is that all you want to say?" Lin Wan'er looked into his eyes seriously.

Fan Xian thought for a while and nodded.

Lin Wan'er sneered: "It's starting to be shameless again, I told you in Kyoto in the past, what are you going to do, I won't stop you...... Anyway, what this woman said was originally powerful, I just hope you can be honest and talk to me before it happens, even if I am useless now, but I am also the eldest daughter-in-law of your Fan family, and some things must not be hidden from me. ”

"Where is this?" Fan Xian was a little faintly angry, "Why can't you be so self-pitying, the Wan'er I like is a gentle and naughty girl......"

He stopped halfway through his sentence. On the contrary, Wan'er smiled and said softly: "Why don't you continue to teach?"

Fan Xian coughed and said, "Whether you believe it or not, I wasn't going to say anything else today. ”

"Oh, really?" Lin Wan'er sighed and said, "Then when will you tell me about the Begonia girl?"

Fan Xian was silent for a while and said, "It's different, it's different." After saying this, he hugged Wan'er who turned over and was angry, gently scratched her soft waist and abdomen with one hand, and said in her ear: "It's been more than ten days apart, what are you talking about?"

If it is replaced by a begonia, or if it is a girl like Ruo who has undergone the influence of Fan Xian's modern feminism, I am afraid that Fan Xian would have been kicked under the bed at this time.

It's just that although Wan'er grew up in the palace since she was a child, she is full of delicacy and profundity, but she was born in the affairs of men and women, and she received the most traditional education, she said sullenly: "That girl's identity is different, it is already troublesome, you are still doing your own thing, and I don't know what will happen after rΓ¬." ”

Fan Xian listened to this seemingly admitted, and his heart was not relaxed, but he was even more apologetic. It seems false for a person, especially a man, to say that he is not in love with so-and-so, but to say that he will be in love with so-and-so for the rest of his life and never squint, this is even more false.

Appreciating jade on the east mountain, watching the fall on the west mountain, doing different things in different places, everyone wants to deceive themselves and brainwash the world.

"But it's really boring for you to stay at home every day and have no one to play mahjong with you. Fan Xian didn't want to continue on that issue, because he suddenly found that the positioning of Haitang still fell on his friend after all, and the woman was not necessarily willing to marry into the Fan family, so why should he worry about these things in advance, why should he let his wife also worry about it and be slightly sour.

"The ladies of the palace...... It's not the same as this mixed rì. Fan Xian's words touched the real weakness in Lin Wan'er's heart, and she couldn't help but sigh.

She grew up in the palace since she was a child, her mother was the eldest princess of the dynasty, and her father was the dignified Lin Xiangye, but unfortunately she was locked in the palace, and her parents had not met a few times, so if she was raised collectively by the ladies in the palace. She is smart and grew up in such an environment, not to mention Bing Xue is smart, at least she has a clear understanding of the hooks and tricks in the power field, and she believes that her ability should have played a greater role.

It's just that on the one hand, because of the relationship between the eldest princess, Lin Wan'er is a little disgusted with cāo making yīn plots, and is willing to be calm. Second, because of the hostile relationship between her husband and mother, Wan'er could not find a suitable place to shine.

This is something that Fan Xian and her have discussed a long time ago.

If a person can't find a place in the environment around him, he will eventually have a sense of loss. If she is just an ordinary woman, then it is okay to take care of housework, honor her in-laws, serve her father-in-law, and cultivate her children, but Lin Wan'er's background determines that if she continues to be so ordinary, she will always have some regrets in her heart, especially when she is touched, many people have begun to radiate brilliance by Fan Xian's side.

Lin Wan'er was ready to accept her fate at a certain time, ready to hold the good memories of having a son over the wall back then, and strive to give birth to a child for Fan Xian, so it was good to tie Xianggong's heart to herself, so she took the risk and stopped the medicine prescribed by Fei Jie.

Fan Xian is a slender and sensitive person, of course he knows what the deep meaning of his wife's action is, and of course he knows what the faint sorrow between his wife's eyebrows has been in the past few months, but ...... He never found a good solution.

Fan Sizhe's life ideal is business, so Fan Xian can kick him to the north to smuggle. Ruoruo's life ideal was cultivated by Fan Xian, so Fan Xian could use all his methods to send her to the Bitter Lotus Gate, to travel thousands of miles, and to see different people. But Wan'er...... The identity is different, she is her own wife, and her life ideals are ...... Or to put it more colloquially, what kind of way should she seek to realize her value?

The ChΕ«n case, as well as some affairs before and after, made Fan Xian clear that Wan'er's strengths were actually in the palace, and she could indeed help herself a lot in planning. But the question is, at the moment, he and Xinyang are in a hurry, how can Wan'er be caught in the middle?

Fan Xian sighed and said, "If there is really a day when the blades are added in the future, I really don't know how to deal with myself." ”

Speaking so nakedly, they rarely involve it between husband and wife, and they have always been a little shy about it. After Lin Wan'er was silent for a long time, she said, "You know, I don't have much affection for my mother...... But she's my mother after all. ”

"I understand. Fan Xian put his mouth and nose on her hair and sniffed deeply, "Trust me, at least I won't make you sad." ”

Will anyone believe this statement?

Fan Xian suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Wan'er, it's really boring to stay at home all the time...... There are some things I'd like you to help me do, but it might be a bit of a struggle. ”

Lin Wan'er opened her eyes wide in curiosity, turned around and pressed face to face with him, and said, "What's the matter?"

With the soft fragrance in his arms, Fan Xian hugged his wife, couldn't help but rub two handfuls of the plumpness, and said with a smile: "You also know that I am a rich man." ”

"That's it. Lin Wan'er couldn't help laughing, and slapped the thief's hand with a snap.

Fan Xianzheng said: "When I went to Jiangnan for the first time in the first year, I found that although Jiangnan was rich, there were still many people who were poorly clothed and hungry. You see, even the south of the Yangtze River is like this, not to mention the north of the Yangtze River, and the people in the middle reaches of the river who have been flooded, and they don't know how to survive. ”

Lin Wan'er said curiously: "Didn't you say that the money you searched in the inner treasury has already been transferred to the Yamen of the Governor of River Transportation?"

"That's only part of the story. Fan Xian thought for a while and said: "You know better than me about the affairs of the imperial court, there are few officials who can be trusted, I put the silver into the imperial court, even if there is the Supervision Yuan and Yang Wanli staring at it, but what should flow away will still flow away...... Not to mention the side, at least my Fan family, Liu family, and even the palace will eat something on top of this silver, so I want to ...... There are some things that are more convenient for us to do ourselves. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Jiangnan is really rich, and those rich businessmen can get tens of millions of taels of silver. Fan Xian sneered: "But there are still so many poor people...... This is a problem of unevenness. ”

He continued to sigh: "I don't have anything to do to change this phenomenon, so I have to find some middle-of-the-road ways to improve it. ”

"What do you mean......" Lin Wan'er guessed Xianggong's thoughts, and said hesitantly: "Are you going to rob the rich and help the poor?"

Fan Xian laughed, he didn't expect his noble-born wife to use the robber language common in the script, and couldn't help but scratch her pretty nose.

Wan'er grinned with her little fragrant tongue.

............ "But ...... It's really a robbery of the rich and helping the poor, right?" Fan Xian thought about it and said seriously: "My idea is this, anyway, I scraped so much silver from the inner treasury and officials, and we have to find a way to use it, and our family can't use it up." As I said earlier, I don't want to go through the guΓ² court, so how can I use this silver for the people?"

Lin Wan'er snorted and said, "In previous years, it was common to open a porridge shop and cultivate good learning. I remember when I was a child, the north was hit by a disaster, and the people who fled the famine flocked to Kyoto, and several ministers in the court asked His Majesty to send troops to suppress them and drive these desolate people to the nearby prefectures. However, the emperor's uncle did not agree to this proposal, but removed the ministers, and at the same time opened the imperial warehouse...... When the porridge was given that year, the old man of the Queen Mother still took these few people in our palace to hold the spoon. ”

Fan Xian nodded, he had heard this story, the emperor was not a fool, he naturally knew what to do, and said: "It's not enough to put porridge temporarily." It was also difficult to spread the practice of benevolence, so I decided to remit the money I earned to a special organization and do good deeds for many years. ”

He lay down in the thin quilt, waved his hand and said, "The poor students have no money, go to the school we run to study." There's no food to eat, let's buy rice hair, chΕ«n days are out of seedlings, let's give ...... In short, what the court didn't think of doing, let's do it. ”

Lin Wan'er looked at his confident look, and her heart became excited, but she immediately smiled bitterly and said, "Fool, do you know how much silver it costs?"

"Isn't the silver earned just the money spent?" Fan Xian said with a smile: "Anyway, what I earn is also the silver of the court and the merchants, and the court and the merchants scrape the silver from the hands of the people. ”

Lin Wan'er couldn't help but light up her eyes when she heard the words "take from the people and use it for the people", and said: "This is fresh, but it ...... Reasonable. ”

Fan Xian looked down at his wife's adoring expression, but somehow thought of the scene when the little emperor of Northern Qi and Begonia Duoduo listened to himself shouting "the worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world" in the Shangjing Palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty last year, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Lin Wan'er then shook her head seriously and said: "It still doesn't work, not to mention that this is a bottomless pit, no matter how much you invest, you may not be able to fill it, just talking about the influence of this matter, you have to think twice, the affairs done by the imperial court are robbed by you to do it, this is very taboo." ”

Fan Xian thought about it and then came up with an idea: "It's not okay to be named?"

Lin Wan'er glanced at him and said like a fool: "If you don't want to be named, how can such a big scene be spread? You don't just want to save the people of one county and one state...... If you don't know that it is the good deed you preside, those local officials must not quickly bite this piece of fat when they see it? ”

Fan Xian thought that this was indeed the truth, but it was really difficult to be named again, and he couldn't make the court angry.

Lin Wan'er suddenly spoke: "You say...... How about this matter in the name of the palace? In the name of the old man of the Queen Mother, there is no need for the nobles in the palace to pay for it, so let's give the money out and let them bear this name, the face of the court will be bright, and they will also have face, and Your Majesty must be happy. ”

Fan Xian was stunned, looking at Wan'er who didn't speak for a long time, thinking that this is indeed the truth, with the nobles in the palace coming forward, it will definitely be much easier to implement, so this ...... Isn't it the so-called charity federation that I often saw in my previous life? It's just that the Qingguo is carried out at the beginning, and it must be much rougher, but since there is a beginning, there will always be some improvement for the people.

Lin Wan'er became interested and continued to come up with ideas: "But no matter how rich you are, you can't afford to toss like this, I think you still have to save the emergency rather than the poor...... The real focus is still on reading books and disaster relief, things that rì always do......"

Speaking of halfway, she stopped talking, Fan Xian also stopped talking, the two looked at each other, and then laughed in unison, with a hint of embarrassment and self-deprecation in their smiles.

What should be done, how to make Qingguo and even the people of the world live better, this couple are both characters born with a golden spoon, where to know the details in between, it is just a general discussion, if you really want to talk about specifics, the two will only go around in circles on reading and putting porridge.

After laughing for a while, Fan Xian said seriously: "You still have to do it, there are always people who understand this." Yang Wanli was born in poverty, and when the matter of the embankment slowed down, he summoned him to Beijing to talk. ”

His mind flashed through the changes in his previous life, what kind of green seedlings and the like looked bright, but Fan Xian knew that he didn't have the ability to change the general trend, and thought that he had to sew and mend it, although it was trivial, although it couldn't change much...... But it can make the people's rìzi a little better.

Even a little bit can still be done.

Anyway, you don't need to bother with fan, you only need to spend some money.

"I'll leave this to you. Fan Xian looked at Wan'er with a smile.

Wan'er was taken aback and said, "Why is such a big thing entrusted to me?"

"You do things, I don't worry. Fan Xian smiled and said: "Besides, if you want to pull the nobles and ladies in the palace into shares, if you don't come forward, how can you do it." The women are less risky than I am to do things...... Don't say you won't do it. ”

"Ken!" Lin Wan'er was excited when she heard this, she finally had something to do, where would she miss this opportunity.

The husband and wife said a few more words, and then prepared to do it after some time, during which Fan Xian couldn't help but say a few beautiful words similar to teaching people to fish is better than teaching people to fish, which shocked Wan'er and shook it, and the two of them kept talking, but they didn't feel sleepy.

"How long have you been preparing for this?" Lin Wan'er asked with her head buried in his arms and hummed.

Fan Xian said for a while: "It's been half a year." ”

Lin Wan'er looked at Fan Xian's good-looking face, and felt a trace of warmth in her heart, she knew that most of the reasons why Fan Xian did this were for herself.

In fact, in Fan Xian's opinion...... He did this for Wan'er's sake.

It's just that at this time, the husband and wife on the bed didn't expect such an organization to appear in the world at a moment's notice, and later because Fan Xian had too many resources in his hands, and relying on Wan'er's ability, they gradually broke away from their original ideas, and gradually evolved into an organization that no one could predict, which brought many benefits to the world and to Fan Xian himself.

"Don't put all this money in one place. Lin Wan'er blinked her long eyelashes and said seriously: "Although I don't know much about economic affairs, I can also understand from what you and Si Zhe have done that money can make money." ”

Fan Xian nodded, he naturally won't suffer himself by doing these things, the second child earns in the north, Shi Yanli and Sang Wen do the skin and meat business in the south, and after the large amount of money in the money village is paid, it will naturally become the source of living water. Seeing Wan'er's reply to Ming's heart, she began to get excited after knowing that this girl had something to do, Fan Xian's heart was also extremely happy, what he had been thinking about for so long had finally had its due effect, and what made him happiest was that with such a fork, those short things in the parents might fade.

Unexpectedly, the world is not as good as it should be.

Lin Wan'er bit her lip and said, "But you haven't answered me yet." ”

Fan Xian was stunned, smiled, hugged her in his arms and kissed, and said vaguely: "Don't worry, there is no such thing anymore." ”

It's still the same old saying, who can believe a man's words? Sure enough, Lin Wan'er didn't believe it very much, glanced at the outside with her eyes, and said softly: "Although Sisi entered the door, she didn't have a ritual, and she would always be wronged. ”

Fan Xian laughed and said, "At your mercy, anyway, she grew up with me since she was a child, and she probably doesn't care about this." ”

The husband and wife spoke very softly, but at this time, Sisi's coughing sound came from the small bed outside the compartment, and the coughing sound was full of shame and annoyance.

Lin Wan'er looked at Fan Xian and grinned, "Did you hear it?"

Fan Xian patted her buttocks awkwardly and said, "Usually this big girl sleeps like a pig, why did she wake up so shocked today?"

Speaking of sleeping like a pig, Lin Wan'er immediately remembered that Siqi who entered Fan's Mansion with her, this is also her personal big girl's ring, she was fascinated by Fan Xian every day in the courtyard, and there was no merit and hard work, frowning and saying, "What should Siqi do?"

Looking at Wan'er's expression, Fan Xian understood that the lady in charge wanted her eldest girl to come too, but Fan Xian was really a little afraid of these things, and begged for mercy and said: "It's better to be exempt, it's not seven times a night for a husband." ”

Wan'er glanced at him with resentment.

After some tossing, the husband and wife were finally tired, Fan Xian hugged his wife with satisfaction, and said in her ear: "Ming'er will take you to a place." ”

Lin Wan'er said in a daze: "This city is not big, I have already visited it...... Where else to go?"

—————————————————————————— let's not mention Fan Xian's couple's trip to Lanzhou, after all, after returning to Lanzhou, there was a lot of busyness for a while, and Fan Xianguang had to receive acquaintances from previous years, where could he find time to play. Coupled with a certain rì, it was finally presided over by the old grandmother, and the big girl Sisi who had an accident with Fan Xian on the river boat was finally accepted into the room without surprise, but Sisi This girl is used to serving Fan Xian, and for a while she can't accept this kind of change in the corner, and the whole person seems a little confused and overwhelmed.

For this, everyone has been mentally prepared, Sisi grew up with Fan Xian since childhood, and the relationship is very good, many people in the house still remember that year, twelve-year-old Fan Xian in order to stand up for Sisi, the housekeeper from Kyoto was full of peach blossoms.

The butler was humiliated and went away, but he never heard from him, and he did not know where he went.

And after Fan Xian went to Kyoto, the news of his marriage was obtained from the Zhouzhou side, and the ancestor sent Sisi to Kyoto, who does not know the hidden meaning of this? The two houses in Kyoto and Lanzhou all knew that Sisi would enter the house one day, but after it finally happened, the maids in the earl's palace congratulated Sisi, but they still couldn't stop being a little envious and jealous.

The old lady sealed a big red envelope for Sisi, and said softly for a while, Sisi girl was crying, her eyes were red, and Wan'er was wiping her tears on the side.

In the early morning of the second year, the back door of Fan's mansion was opened with a creak, and Fan Xian took Sisi's hand and walked out of the door reverently. He glanced back at the girl with red and swollen eyes like peaches, and said funny, "Did I bully you or what?"

Sisi choked and glared at him, anyway, she was the most daring and Fan Xian in this mansion. She looked at the rising fog and quiet road in Lanzhou, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Young Master, where are you going?"

Look, the title still can't be changed.

Fan Xian grabbed her hand, and felt that it was indeed a little exciting, as if cheating, but it was clear that he had only entered the room openly yesterday...... It can be seen that man is indeed a very cheap animal.

A gentle smile flashed across his face: "Let's go buy tofu to eat." ”
