Chapter 1 Adopted Son
Winters in Lingshui County are as cold as ever.
The heavy snowstorm raged all night, and it was gradually getting smaller in the early morning, and the early risers were busy clearing the snow, and the new day began so hecticly.
Every winter, many people die in Lingshui County, the world is like this, the rich are very rich, the poor are very poor, after paying taxes every year, there is surplus money to buy New Year's goods, only five or six out of ten households, and the rest, if they can be as coarse as on weekdays, it is already God's favor.
Yingying Yanyan died in wine, and died of starvation. is talking about this Lingshui County, which is known as the five counties of Zhao State.
...
There are no poorest, but there are the richest.
Outside the Cangyun Cang staff of Dongyun Street, he is recognized as the richest person in Lingshui County, and he alone controls more than half of the silk business of the entire Zhao Kingdom, and in this Lingshui County, even the county guard who is called the 'poisonous scorpion' has to be very polite when he sees him.
At this time, in a small courtyard in Cangfu, the door was opened, and a handsome-looking young man walked out of it, wearing a white nightgown and his hair was scattered.
The young man's name is Cang Ze, and he is the second son in this Cangfu, he rubbed his slightly aching head, remembering that he came to fight with a few brothers last night, and he didn't know how to return to this mansion.
In the snowy weather, he was thinly dressed, but he didn't feel cold, looking at the white scene in the courtyard in front of him, he didn't like winter, since he knew something, but only the snow in winter could make his irritable and tyrannical heart a little quiet.
For him, winter is a time of capriciousness.
A subordinate approached.
"Second young master, breakfast is over, the master asked you to go to his study. ”
The family never called him when they were eating, and he had even forgotten how many people had gathered around that dinner table.
"Got it. He replied lightly.
The servant retreated, and he walked into the room, and there was no one around, but he whispered, "Wait for me to change my clothes." ”
As soon as his voice fell, an ugly girl appeared next to him, looking at this ugly girl who was just a subordinate, she looked ugly, had a big scar on her face, and even her left eye was squeezed by the scar to only a gap, which was quite terrifying.
But it was because of this that she was assigned to Cang Ze, but unexpectedly, this ugly maid had a lot of kung fu and could do a lot of things for Cang Ze.
Changing into a neat green shirt, before Cang Ze came to Cangyun's study, he didn't knock on the door, and directly pushed the door in.
In the rocking chair in the study, the fat middle-aged man closed his eyes and hummed a tune in his mouth.
"Are you looking for me?" looking at the adoptive father who had never been called 'father' by him, Cang Ze said coldly.
For Cang Ze's attitude, Cang Yun didn't mind at all, just as the middle-aged Taoist said seventeen years ago, Cang Ze was very prosperous with him, and he had come to today's position step by step for more than ten years, no matter business or other things, everything went so smoothly that he once felt like God helped.
He never asked Cang Ze to call him father, and in his eyes, Cang Ze was still the son of that lowly man.
"I heard that you injured a son from Kyoto for a woman?" Cang Yun still didn't mean to open his eyes, and his voice was lazy and casual.
Cang Ze heard the words and recalled slightly, this seems to be a few days ago, he was recognized as the first scum of Lingshui County, he walked on the street with a few pig friends and dog friends, and met a strange lame man leading a few servants to tease beautiful women on the street, in line with the pure spirit of this Lingshui County woman who only his son can flirt, he saved the woman on the spot, and beat the lame man and those evil servants violently.
He doesn't do much of this kind of thing on weekdays, it's not a big deal, but then I heard that the lame man is from Kyoto, and when I hear Cangyun ask this today, I don't have to think about it to know that I'm causing trouble.
"Do you know the identity of that child?" Cang Yun continued.
"What identity?"
"The eldest son of the Kyoto Town Guogong. ”
It's a name that scares people to death.
Cang Yun's eyes opened a gap slightly to see Cang Ze's reaction, it was still that indifferent face, he snorted sarcastically and coldly, and said: "I settled this matter at a great price, but in the end, you have to come to the door to apologize in person to end it, that prince lives in Murong Mansion now, you go today." ”
Cang Ze didn't answer, and turned around to leave the study.
"You should know the proportions of this matter, and if you poke out any basket, I can't protect you. ”
The lazy voice came from behind him, and he didn't hear the slightest concern in his voice, seventeen years have passed, and in Cang Yun's eyes, Cang Ze is still just a descendant of a house slave, raised in the mansion, just for the little superstition in his heart.
...
Coming out of the study, Cang Ze took the ugly maid out of Cangfu, and just out of Cangfu, two people walked together on the street.
As soon as the two of them saw Cang Ze, they walked up quickly as if something was wrong.
"Brother Ze, this time I really kicked the tiger's ass, we're finished!
One of these two people is extremely fat and the other is extremely thin, the fat one has to weigh three hundred pounds, and the thin one is only about seventy or eighty pounds because of his short stature, and it is a very funny picture when the two walk together, but in this Lingshui County, no one dares to laugh at them.
The fat one is called Gu Yuan, the large and small restaurants and brothels in Lingshui County are all their family, although he has a good relationship with Cang Ze, but the two of them are fighting endlessly openly and secretly, and even caused a lot of lives, the reason is that Cang Yun has planned to build a highest-level Qinglou in Zhao State in Lingshui County since a few years ago.
The one who came from the relents is even bigger than Gu Yuan, he is Shi Mu, the youngest son of Shi Tiande, the county guard of Lingshui County, don't look at his name, it sounds elegant, but his means are the most ruthless of the three, and the two corpses of a man and a woman found in a dry well behind Fengming Street a month ago were his handwriting.
"If it's about the lame man, needless to say, I'm going to that Murong Mansion now. Cang Ze raised his hand and said.
Both of them knew that the lame man was living in Murong Mansion now, and Gu Yuan said, "Brother Ze, that guy is the son of the Duke of Zhenguo......"
"Get out of you! Brother Ze'er is going to Murong Mansion, and the identity of the lame man is still unknown!" Shi Mu pushed the fat man away, he looked at Cang Ze, and his face was full of laugh lines, "Brother Ze, the matter is settled?"
"Cangyun probably solved it with money, so he sent us to apologize. Cang Ze said that he had always called his adoptive father by his name, and Shi Mu and Gu Yuan were not surprised.
The two of them were greatly relieved when they heard this, and it was not a big deal for a man to bend and stretch, and an apology was not a big deal, because they were scolded at home for this matter, and they were almost driven out of the house.
