Chapter 31: Tang He: Going to a drinking party with Daddy
Jiang Pan looked excitedly at Zhu Tong's eyes full of expectation, for so many years, he had relied on his father and brother for his life, endured a lot of hardships, and experienced a lot of hardships, and they all came over.
But his father didn't see this scene and couldn't enjoy his old age, which left the eldest brother with a lifetime of regrets, although the elder brother looked tenacious and decisive on weekdays.
But in this matter he forgot for a long time, and several times secretly ran to his father's grave to drink alcohol, he was too bitter in his heart, but he never told anyone.
Zhu Tong knocked on his sister's head and said:
"What do you think? Let's go and see the house, let's move there today! ”
My sister looked at Zhu Tong, and suddenly remembered and asked:
"If we leave, will Xu Yi not find us?"
"Don't worry, I've already told him."
After speaking, Zhu Tong, Jiang Pan, and Sanbao cleaned up a little and came to the new house.
The house is located at the foot of the imperial city, the moat passes through the house, and when you enter the house, it is a winding cloister, and the cloister is carved with beams and paintings, but the paint has long faded, and even a little peeling.
The right side of the cloister is a rockery, the rockery has dozens of zhang high, a winding mountain path penetrates into the mountain for a while, leaks out again for a while, climbs and floats on the rockery, and falls staggeredly.
There are five idle pavilions in high and low, and the highest one is located at the top of the rockery, and you can see the whole Yingtianfu in it.
At the bottom of the rockery is an ice cellar used to store food, and the ice cellar is located through a hidden black hole.
To the left of the cloister is a lake, which was used by the former owner for fishing.
But now, the lake has long since dried up, the silt at the bottom of the lake has scabbed and cracked into small pieces, and at the end of the cloister is a hall used to receive distant and distinguished guests.
Entering from the side doors on both sides of the hall is an independent small courtyard, a small attic, densely dotted with green plants, it is difficult to distinguish the east and west, north and south, but the middle is very conspicuous.
That is the master bedroom, Zhu Tong walked through the zigzag path, stepped on the stone bridge, and came to the master bedroom with two floors, Zhu Tong looked at the dusty master bedroom, and couldn't help but pick up the broom and wanted to clean.
But after thinking about it, although the whole house did not need to be repaired, the decoration had already been taken away by the previous owner, and only the bare walls were left, and Xu Yi also came at this time.
Xu Yi was followed by dozens of servants, which was something that Zhu Tong did not explain, but he didn't expect him to be so meticulous.
Xu Yi commanded a few times, and the servants began to get busy, Xu Yi said:
"Big brother, everything has been arranged in the salt farm, and when I saw those creditors coming to the young man again a few days ago, I guessed that he would come to trade with the eldest brother in a few days, so I hired the servants in advance."
Zhu Tong smiled with satisfaction, looking at the huge bamboo forest, he was very happy in his heart, and suddenly a dog ran out of the bamboo forest, and Xu Yi trembled, it turned out that Sanbao was chasing the family dog to play.
Jiang Pan also came out of the bamboo forest and kept shouting:
"Sambo, beware of tripping!"
Watching this scene, the warmth in Zhu Tong's heart gradually rose, and from time to time he remembered the painful experience when he was separated from his parents, and he couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in his heart, and he couldn't help but sigh.
He thought that his parents had passed away a long time ago, and it was very uncomfortable for him not to see them again, but in fact, when he was young, he also hated his parents and hated them for not caring about him.
Hate them for abandoning themselves to suffer, but slowly he understands who is lucky under the war?
Maybe they have already died under the iron hooves of the Yuan thief, or they have a new family, a new son, in short, it is impossible to see themselves again.
Maybe they've long forgotten what they look like, just like it's hard for them to remember what their parents looked like, and their voices .....
Even if you don't recognize your parents face to face now, maybe everything is arranged by fate, making it difficult for you to meet your parents, and you can only silently accept the reality.
Constantly adapt to your current life, try not to think too much so as not to sink too deep and unable to extricate yourself.
His father-in-law also persuaded himself not to live like this anymore and not to let himself be too entangled in the past......
The stepfather seems to be right in front of him, he has never left him, and when he has difficulty making a choice, he will always have the strength to encourage him, support him not to be afraid, to move forward bravely, and to chase the goals he wants to pursue.
At this time, Zhu Tong was extremely happy, he understood the cause and effect that had been involved in him for many years, and he untied the knot in his heart for decades.
He shouted at Xu Yi:
"But let's go buy some calligraphy and paintings, decorate the house, and we want to make our lives more meaningful."
When Xu Yi on the side heard this, he shed tears excitedly, and then followed Zhu Tong out of the house to buy a house.
......
Xinguo Gongfu,
Tang He came back from the palace and hurried to his daughter Tang Yanke's boudoir.
Tang Yanke, the eldest daughter of Duke Xinguo, has just turned twenty, but it gives Tang He a headache, her daughter is too stubborn and different from the daughters of ordinary people, and Duke Xinguo has said several family affairs before and after.
was rejected by his daughter, which made his old face unbearable.
Tang He came all the way, and as soon as he pushed open the door, many butterflies flew in all directions of the whole room, colorful and huddled together.
Tang He waved his hand violently, knocking down a few butterflies of all colors, and the butterfly group in front of him made a way for him, and his daughter was swinging in the boudoir to read, and saw her father come back.
Raised his bright eyes slightly to take a look, then turned his head to look, humming a tune while swinging, not caring about the soup in front of him.
Tang He walked directly to his daughter, grabbed the rope of the swing, grabbed his daughter's ear, and took it off the swing like a chicken.
Tang Yanke gently hit his father while shouting pain.
Tang He put his daughter on the stool and said with a smile:
"How about going to a drinking party with Daddy?"
Tang Yanke glanced at Tang He and said crisply:
"Don't go!"
Tang He heard his daughter's words, and said with a straight face:
"The emperor decrees! You have to go. ”
Tang Yanke looked reluctant, and forced himself to attend some banquet a few times before, but the result was that the princes chose concubines, and those gentlemen were not used to it, so they let themselves marry them.
It's just a fantasy, and their marriage never considers the feelings of the parties, blindly thinks about themselves, and the bright political marriage is the most boring.
Tang He saw that his daughter was reluctant, and he couldn't do anything about her for a while, he had doted on her too much since he was a child, unlike other people's daughters, what his father said was what he said......
Tang He sighed in his heart: "Girl, this is a chance to become a phoenix in one step......"
