Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather
Chapter 37: How can a horse be better than a wife?
"Really!"
When Yang Zhengshan was going to find a wife for him, Yang Mingcheng, who had been crying just now, became excited instantly and immediately forgot about the war horse.
How could a wife be better than a horse?
Compared to horses, he wanted to marry a wife more.
Yang Zhengshan didn't bother to pay attention to this stupid son and shouted to the kitchen: "Eldest son's wife, eldest son's wife!"
"Dad!" Wang came out of the kitchen wiping her hands.
"Look for a matchmaker to see if there is a girl suitable for the third son!" Yang Zhengshan ordered.
The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. Yang Zhengshan has no wife, so Wang can only do this.
Blind marriage, not to mention the two people getting married, even the parents don't know each other's character.
Of course, before the engagement, Yang Zhengshan can still meet the future daughter-in-law, but he can only meet a few times and can't get to know her in depth.
Well, as a future father-in-law, it's not easy to get to know the daughter-in-law in depth.
Yang Zhengshan thinks getting married is a bit fucked up.
A virtuous wife brings prosperity to three generations, while a bad wife ruins a lifetime.
He naturally hopes that Yang Minghao can marry a virtuous wife, but he can't do it himself, so he can only rely on Wang.
His requirements are not high, as long as she is similar to Wang and Li.
Although Wang and Li are village women with no knowledge, they are gentle and diligent. They may not be able to help the Yang family do anything big, but they can take care of the whole family. Such a daughter-in-law is enough.
"Okay, Dad, I'll go to ask Wang in the afternoon." When Wang heard that she was going to find a wife for the third child, she immediately agreed with a smile.
As the eldest sister-in-law, she had already prepared for this.
And she also wanted to find a good wife for Yang Minghao. After all, everyone will live together in the future, and she doesn't want to cause trouble for herself.
"Well! Ask first, if there is a suitable one, tell me! I'll go and see it myself." Yang Zhengshan said.
"Dad, I'll say a few words to my eldest sister-in-law!"
Seeing this, Yang Minghao couldn't help but run to Wang and whispered.
Yang Zhengshan didn't bother to care what they were mumbling about, and turned to look at other things in the yard.
Fortunately, the Yang family's yard was big enough, otherwise it wouldn't even be able to fit Zhou Lan's thank-you gift.
He first focused on the gilded flying fish gun, waved the gun a few times, and said with a smile: "Good gun!"
This gun is much heavier than his previous one, estimated to be more than 50 kilograms.
However, with his strength, it was not difficult to wave it, but more handy.
Next to him, Yang Mingcheng and Yang Mingzhi, who had chosen their war horses, looked at the gun in his hand with envy.
They all hoped that they could have a good gun.
Yang Zhengshan waved a few more times, and then stopped to look at other items.
Silk cloth, gold and silver jewelry!
He looked at these things, and a strange color flashed in his eyes.
Zhou Lan configured this according to the population of his family, such as those gold and silver jewelry, which were obviously four sets.
Each set includes a top hairpin, a hairpin for the sideburns, a long hairpin, earrings, bracelets, etc. It is a complete set of jewelry. It doesn't look particularly valuable, but it is very rare for the Yang family.
There are several women in the Yang family, Wang, Li, Yang Yunxue, and Yang Yunyan who has already married, exactly four. As for Yang Qingwan, the little girl has just learned to crawl, so naturally she doesn't need any jewelry.
There are also cloths, which are also prepared according to the population of the Yang family.
This General Zhou is really careful.
Yang Zhengshan thought about it and distributed the things to each room.
"Dad, is this for me?" Yang Yunxue asked happily.
"Well, it's for you, keep it well, and save it as a dowry in the future!" Yang Zhengshan touched Yang Yunxue's little head.
"Thank you, Dad!" Yang Yunxue smiled, her delicate face was like a blooming flower, a little more gorgeous.
Then, Yang Zhengshan selected some furs and herbs and put them separately.
As for the remaining 1,000 taels of silver, Yang Zhengshan pondered for a long time.
This thank-you gift should not be just for him.
At that time, there were more than a hundred young men in Yangjia Village who helped Zhou Lan. He contributed the most and could take the lion's share, but he couldn't put it all in his own pocket.
After thinking about it, Yang Zhengshan took out 200 taels and put them in his cabinet, and took the remaining 800 taels to Yang Zhengxiang's house.
At this time, Yang Zhengxiang was discussing ancestor worship with several elders at home. When he saw Yang Zhengshan coming, he and several elders immediately greeted him warmly.
"You came at the right time. We are discussing ancestor worship!"
"Ancestor worship! What is there to discuss?" Yang Zhengshan was puzzled.
"There is nothing to discuss about ancestor worship, but should we hold a banquet? This is a big happy event for our Yang family. We should invite some gentry to celebrate!" Yang Zhengxiang said.
Celebration is only one of the reasons, and showing off is the purpose.
Of course, showing off was not to satisfy their vanity, but to tell the surrounding gentry about Yang Zhengshan's officialdom through a banquet, so as to publicize the prosperity and growth of the Yang family and deter some jealous scoundrels of the Yang family.
Yang Zhengshan thought for a while, "Then let's hold a banquet!"
It doesn't cost much to hold a banquet, and it doesn't cost much money to set up twenty or thirty tables.
It's not a secret that he is about to go to Chongshan Pass, and it can't be kept secret. It will spread sooner or later.
It's natural to invite relatives and friends to celebrate when you get promoted and make money.
Before going to Chongshan Pass, Yang Zhengshan also wanted to invite some people to his home.
"Then do it, the silver and money will be paid by the clan, and there is still a lot of silver left!" Yang Zhengxiang nodded with satisfaction when he saw that he agreed.
Yang Zhengshan waved his hand and said, "I can just pay for the money myself. There will be many places to use money in the clan in the future."
As he spoke, he moved the wooden box in his hand into the house.
"What is this?" Yang Zhengxiang asked.
Yang Zhengshan opened the box and displayed the white silver inside in front of everyone.
"Eight hundred taels of silver, I want to help build a clan school for the clan, and the roads in the village should also be repaired!"
Looking at the white money, both Yang Zhengxiang and several clan elders almost stared out of their eyes.
To get rich, build roads first.
Yangjiacun is not far from the official road, only four or five miles away. However, that section of the road is a dirt road. Whenever it rains or snows, the road will be too muddy to walk on.
As for family science, although the Yang family has a martial arts heritage, there are only a few people who can become warriors.
After having clan knowledge, the children of the Yang family could also improve their status through the imperial examination.
It is definitely better to walk on two legs in martial arts and imperial examinations than on one leg.
"If there is any leftover, then buy some fields as clan property. The harvest in the future can be used for clan studies and to take care of clan relatives." Yang Zhengshan added.
It took a lot of effort for Yang Zhengxiang to move his eyes away from the money, "This is not good, Zhengshan, you have taken care of the clan a lot, and if you are asked to spend money to set up clan schools and build roads, we are really worried." Sorry.”
"Yes, we all know that you want to take care of your relatives, but we can't bear it!"
"There is still money in the clan. We will also build a clan school in the future. There is no need for you to pay."
Several clan elders spoke to persuade.
It's not that they don't want to establish a clan school, they just feel sorry for it.
Yang Zhengshan had helped the clan a lot before, and this time he had to take more than a dozen of his clan members to Chongshanguan. This was a great favor to the entire Yang clan.
Yang Zhengshan smiled and said, "The family school must be established as soon as possible. I hope that in the future, the children of our Yang family will be all-rounders in both civil and military affairs!"
He didn't say that Yangjiacun Qingzhuang's share of these thank-you gifts was that since Zhou Lan gave him the things, they belonged to him.
He is willing to give a share to the clan, that is, he takes care of the clan.
This is grace.
He wants to tie the Yang family tightly to himself. No matter where he goes in the future, the Yang family will be his help.
He wants every descendant of the Yang family to remember his kindness, and wants all the descendants of the Yang family to serve him in the future.
He believes that what is sown today will surely bear fruit in the future.
In fact, he has already harvested several fruits now.
Yang Mingwu, Yang Chengze, Yang Chengxu, Yang Qinwu, all the children of the Yang family respected him extremely.
Although these four people are still very weak now, as long as he continues to invest, I believe they will become his most loyal subordinates before long.
Yang Zhengshan is not a good person, he just does this to win people's hearts.
