Chapter 106: Conspiracy
Tao Yao thought in his heart, now Chu Ping wants to take the imperial examination, if he is a scholar and first, he must focus on his career, if he says that it is a small success with a few shops, but he can no longer take care of the huge family business of the Chu family.
Thinking of this, Tao Yao opened her mouth and said: "When I came back, I heard that the old lady mentioned the Kyoto Hongshu Museum, and I thought that if the Chu family uncle was attentive to the imperial examination, the Hongshu Museum in Kyoto would always be better than the Lu Yue Library. β
Tao Yao means how the old lady doesn't understand, she wants to get married, so she and Chu Ping left Hangzhou Chu family This is a place of right and wrong, and go to the capital to make another living.
Even if something really happens to the Chu family in the future, it is not Chu Ping's business, and he is not the main culprit after all.
They don't have much to do with it, and they don't expect Chu Ping to be crowned king and worship the prime minister, if they are like Tao Yao's brother, seeking an idle position in the Ministry of Rites, or being a petty official, they will not attract attention, and they will not be able to reach the heavens, if something like this happens at home, at most Chu Ping will be dismissed as an official, and they can still start again in the capital, so it's a big deal not to be an official and reopen a shop to do business.
Tao Yao has the true legend of Zi Ya Pavilion, the two of them took over the shop in the capital, and they can also run it very well, but it is really not good, as long as they have savings, it is not difficult for two people to start from scratch.
Moreover, Tao Yao's brother is still in the capital, although he is not a big official, he finally has relatives, and he will not be helpless.
The old lady of the Chu family sighed, originally when Chu Ping wanted to take a career, they also made a plan, if it could really be done, the family's business would be handed over to Chu Kuo to take care of. So over the years, Chu Ping has also blindly studied, and every time Chu Ping's father and mother go to inspect the shop, they also lead Chu Kuo to learn the family's shop business.
Chu Kuo is an extremely intelligent child like his eldest brother, his temperament is more casual, there has never been any "must" or "certain", no more than Chu Ping, riveting enough, and he wants to gain fame.
Chu Kuo's books are also very good, and the gentleman of the library even said that he is talented and intelligent, and his understanding is better than Chu Ping, but Chu Kuo knows that his brother wants to study and test for fame, so he has never been involved in the imperial examination.
In terms of business, he always understands everything and learns very quickly, but he doesn't show any ambition to be in charge of the Chu family's family business, let alone want to snatch Chu Ping's eldest son, he seems to be just playful, casually playing and watching, and doesn't care, but once he tells him to do something, he can do it surprisingly well every time.
If Chu Ping really went to the capital, the affairs of the family would be left to Chu Kuo to take care of, and the Chu family would not be regarded as having no successor.
It's just that where to go is ultimately the choice of these children themselves, and there are countless possibilities in this life, and it is in this choice again and again that the way out and direction are determined.
The Chu family is a risk and an opportunity, but no one knows what the future will be, whether it is better to go to the capital and take a career or stay in Hangzhou and do business.
In the end, Hangzhou will become a drag on Chu Ping, and he will suffer in the future, or Chu Ping will become the support of the Chu family, and no one knows if he will lead the Chu family to soar in the future.
Old Mrs. Chu just nodded at Tao Yao and responded: "Okay, if you and Brother Ping both like the capital, then grandmother will buy you a house in the capital." β
Tao Yao never thought that things would go so smoothly, she thought that the old lady would not agree to Chu Ping's long trip, and would be reluctant to let him, the eldest son of the long house, have to keep him in charge of the family business in Hangzhou.
She was even in a trance, whether the old lady was just trying to trick herself into marrying Chu Ping, so she deliberately promised herself.
Tao Yao hesitated: "I always have to explain the reason for the matter with my parents, and the affairs of the Jingzhong Hong Library can be arranged properly before the marriage date can be discussed." β
When the old lady heard this, she naturally heard Tao Yao's suspicions, so she smiled and comforted: "It's okay to get married after the matter of the Hong Library is settled, but it's just a side matter, there is no need for your family to know, so as not to worry them, after all, the mountains are high and the road is far away, and many things, you may not be able to explain them clearly, but you will only let them misunderstand in vain." β
Tao Yao heard this, although it was reasonable, but she was still a little jealous: "If I marry into the Chu family, I will always let the family take the risk, they would have known that it would be better to have the bottom in their hearts, otherwise if something really happens in the future, it will inevitably catch them off guard." β
The old lady said, "If something really happens in the future, can anyone in your family help anything?" β
These words stopped Tao Yao.
The old lady continued: "If you can't help, then you can only do it in a hurry, why bother? The more people know about this matter, the more risk there is, you believe your grandmother, and your grandmother will not lie to you.
The matter of the library, if you are not at ease, I can ask the wife of the Shao family to tell your family that this is the plan of our Chu family, in fact, originally Brother Ping loved to read, and I also moved the mind of sending him to the Hong Library, but his mother was reluctant to him, so he did not make the trip for so many years.
Now, he has been in the Lu Yue Library for so many years, and his knowledge has not made any progress, and he has lost the imperial examination twice, and he is also depressed in his heart. Maybe if you go to the capital and have a famous teacher to guide you, there will be a breakthrough, and then your brother is not still in the capital, but you can also mention him, I think this is a good thing, and it doesn't make me embarrassed. As for his mother, it is not difficult to have me in charge.
You can rest assured. β
When the old lady said this, her face was full of love, and her tone was sincere, Tao Yao believed that she was not deceiving herself, and the other was really the old lady's words that were too much in line with her own heart, she had never seen Zhao Wanrong get along with her mother-in-law so painfully and difficult, if she and Chu Ping left Hangzhou, even the trouble of meeting her mother-in-law for a day was solved, and she could live freely with Chu Ping outside, how free.
Tao Yao thought to herself in her heart, but Liao is like this, Chu Ping can't go out of the house, doesn't the Chu family have a shop faΓ§ade in Beijing, and it should all belong to himself and Chu Ping, as well as the Chu family's Wanguan furniture, although it is not a separation, but in the future, the majority will be given to Chu Kuo, although he and Chu Ping are far away in the capital, but the poor family is rich, and the money allocated to himself and Chu Ping is not too little, and it must be enough for himself to buy a mansion and open a shop again in the future.
Third, the old lady of the Chu family said that she would buy a house in the capital, where it was and how big the house was.
Tao Yao secretly thought in her heart, but these words were not good to tell the old lady in person, so she could only go back and explain it clearly to the Shao family and Taoyu, so that they could discuss it clearly when discussing the dowry with the Chu family.
Tao Yao smiled and nodded: "The old lady said something there, I naturally have nothing to worry about." Originally, I didn't have the right to speak about this kind of thing, and I had to listen to my parents and old lady in my family. β
After listening to Tao Yao's words, the old lady knew that Tao Yao had already made a promise.
He only smiled and said: "You see, what our mother and mother are thinking about is so coincidental, everything is so appropriate, this is also fate." β
This made Tao Yao not know how to take it, at this time, he pretended to be ignorant and shy, and never wanted these things outside the body of gold and silver, it would be too hypocritical, but if he did, as if he wanted to calculate them or something, Tao Yao only smiled lightly and did not talk.
