Chapter Ninety-Two: Drunken Sacrifice of Son
I was already planning to change houses and buy a maidservant, but now I suddenly heard that Zheng Ci was pregnant, so this matter had to be put on the agenda.
However, even if you want to rent a new residence in Luoyang City, it will not be easy to move in a short period of time, after all, this is a place where every inch of land is valuable.
In particular, Liu Jian must need a decent house at this time, after all, it is about his wife and children.
If you want to deal with this matter quickly in Luoyang City, you still have to find a big guy to help.
If you have a neck-to-neck friend, isn't it in vain to have feelings with others!
If he doesn't agree, then cut off his robe with him.
So, Liu Jian personally visited Yuan Ji and asked him to help him prepare this matter.
When he arrived at Yuan's house, Liu Jian went straight to the door without ink, asking Yuan Ji to help him with this, using acquaintances in Yuan's mansion to help him find a suitable mansion in Luoyang City, and find a proper relationship, and buy a few innocent maidservants to take care of his pregnant wife.
After listening to Liu Jian's appeal, Yuan Ji stared at him for a long time without saying a word, and his expression became a little twisted.
Seeing Yuan Ji's strange expression, Liu Jian couldn't help but plan in his heart, could it be that his request was too much?
Come to think of it, this is all a trivial matter of your own family, Yuan Ji is also a marquis, and he is the leader of the Yuan Sect, and his status is transcendent, you let him buy a house for you as an intermediary, which does seem to be a bit overkill.
Do you really want to cut off his robe and break off his righteousness?
"That's it?"
Yuan Ji finally spoke, and his tone was obviously a little unhappy: "You are looking for me for this?" ”
"Isn't it inconvenient for the prince?"
Yuan Ji took a deep breath, shook his head, and said hatefully: "It's not inconvenient, it's just that you finally begged me to help you once, can you ask for more when you speak?" ”
"Huh?"
"Why do you want the people in Yuan's mansion to help you rent a house? I'll give you one! Liu Deran, do you still treat me as a friend? ”
"W-That's not right, is it? I'm embarrassed to ask for the prince's things directly......"
Yuan Ji waved his sleeves and said, "What's wrong with this?" It's just a mansion, with the friendship between you and me, it is to give you a silhouette, what is the pity? ”
Liu Jian couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: Yuan Ji either doesn't learn, and he is better at learning than anyone else.
This chivalrous and heroic style, in a short period of time, has been vividly manifested in the head of the Yuan family.
Just a mansion?
In fact, this is not fundamentally different from someone giving you a courtyard house in the first ring in Beijing.
"As for the servant slavery, it's easy to say about this matter, I'll ask someone to write a letter when I go back, and the officials and maids in the Luoyang Offices have their own innocent bodies, you and your younger brothers and sisters can pick them at will, and take them away directly if you like them, you don't have to pay for them, and I will ask someone to complete the formalities for you when you go back."
"That's a little embarrassing."
"I'm so embarrassed, without you Liu Deran, how could Yuan come today? Is it a lie to have a friend who is in love? Don't be polite with me in the future! ”
Since Yuan Ji has good intentions, Liu Jian will not shirk it.
In fact, according to reality, there is nothing wrong with what Yuan Ji said, the reason why he was able to show his prominence in such a short period of time and win the hearts of the people as the second-generation sect master of the Yuan family was indeed a plan made by Liu Jian for him.
To a large extent, it was Liu Jian who helped him a lot.
Therefore, this thing is not a loss, everyone is a fair trade, hehe.
The matter was settled very simply, and then Yuan Ji ordered people to put wine and meat on it, and arranged a banquet to entertain Liu Jian.
It took less than half an hour to chatter, and I started drinking directly after chatting......
Sure enough, it is Zhumen's wine and meat!
Liu Jian felt that as long as he came to Yuan Ji to say something, the other party had to have a banquet with Liu Jian, and every time he didn't get drunk, it would never be over.
The wine table culture was vividly expressed in the Han Dynasty. Liu Jian felt that he and Yuan Ji had been drinking for much longer than they were doing business.
After three rounds of drinking, both of them drank quite well, and both of them were slightly drunk.
Yuan Ji's face was happy, he clapped his hands, beckoned the servants to come over, and whispered a few words to the man.
The servants of the Yuan family took Yuan Ji's order and went to the back hall.
After a while, a noble lady in her thirties came to the main hall with a group of maidservants, and behind her a maidservant girl was holding a young child in her arms.
Yuan Ji introduced to Liu Jian: "This is my wife and my son." ”
Liu Jian hurriedly got up when he heard this.
He didn't look at Yuan's wife's face according to the rules, and bowed his hand and said, "I've seen Madame." ”
Yuan Ji said to his wife: "De Ran is my virtuous brother." ”
Yuan's wife then ordered the servant to pour a piece of wine, and saluted Liu Jian and said: "I have admired the name of the king for a long time, and this one should be respected." ”
Liu Jian then thanked Yuan's wife, and the two covered their faces to drink.
After Yuan's wife finished drinking, Yuan Ji stepped forward, hugged the child in his arms, and sighed: "My wife and I have three sons, but unfortunately the two eldest sons died early, only this little sister-in-law is called Yuan Pet." ”
After saying that, he saw Yuan Ji teasing Yuan Pet and said, "Call Uncle Liu." ”
Yuan Pet is too young and quite timid.
He blinked with a pair of big eyes, stared straight at Liu Jian, and didn't dare to say anything.
Yuan Ji said helplessly: "Alas, this kid is just a little timid by nature." ”
Liu Jian smiled and stretched out his hand to tease Yuan Pet, and said with a smile: "Children are all recognized, and when they grow up, they will be bold, I have a brother named Liu Bei, who always peed his pants when he was a child, and he is bolder than anyone else when he grows up, this is the son of the Yuan family, and he is also the person who will inherit the title of Marquis in the future. ”
Yuan Ji sighed: "I hope so, it's just that three years old is quite old, and I feel that this child's personality is still too cowardly after all." ”
Yuan's wife listened and hurriedly said, "How can you talk about your own children like this?" Shame or not? ”
When Yuan Ji heard this, he laughed.
was laughing, but suddenly saw Yuan Pet open his little arms, stretched out at Liu Jian, and said in his mouth: "Hug, hug!" ”
In the stunned gaze of Yuan Ji and Yuan's wife, Liu Jian reached out and took Xiao Yuan Pet from Yuan Ji's arms.
Xiao Yuan Pet looked back at his parents, the corners of his mouth were happy, and his chubby little face was attached to Liu Jian's face.
"Qiya, Qiya!"
Yuan Ji shook his head and said in surprise: "This child has been afraid of life since he was a child, even if he is a person in my house, there are very few people who can hold him without crying, he met Deran for the first time today, and he asked you to hug him, which is really strange and strange!" ”
Liu Jian hugged the child and said with a smile: "Perhaps, I like children more?" ”
Yuan's wife on the side smiled and said: "No, the concubine thinks that it is Liu Jun who has a relationship with this child." ”
Yuan Ji belched for a long time and joked: "Haha, no matter what, in view of today's situation, if anything happens to me the next day, De Ran, you need to take care of your friendship with me, you should be a middle father to this child, discipline him for me, and don't let him fall." ”
Yuan's wife said on the side: "Husband, don't talk nonsense, are you drinking too much?!" ”
"Hey! Women's families, afraid of this and that all day long, what's wrong with what I said? When my father went that day, he also entrusted my uncle with this kind of entrustment, and besides, if you say a few words, will you really die! ”
Yuan's wife sighed: "It's just that when your father went, you were already an adult." ”
Yuan Ji laughed: "Man's misfortune is predestined, and the world is impermanent, how can you avoid it if you don't say it?" If anything happens to Deran, I should take good care of his wife and children! Isn't it, Deran? ”
Liu Jian knew that Yuan Ji's words today were drunken child's play, but even so, the other party was able to introduce his wife and children to him, and entrust his wife and children to him, which showed that he was also a crucial figure in his heart.
He turned his head to look at Xiao Yuan Pet in his arms, and reached out to gently scrape the bridge of his nose.
"The prince regards me as a close friend, and I also regard the prince as a close friend, but the prince and the marquis are deeply blessed, how can they be compared with ordinary people, but they don't need to."
Yuan Ji joked: "What if? ”
"What if?"
Liu Jian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said helplessly: "If there is really that event, I should treat it like a parent, but unfortunately there is no such eventual event." ”
"Hahaha, yes, in my Yuan family, how can there be this in case, the right words, play!"
