[Caiyun Kingdom] The beginning of people

"Lord Wenxian," I sat in the familiar Wuli Pavilion in Longqing County, and said with a smile, "I'm going to slay the dragon."

Sitting on the stone chair, Li Wenxian remained motionless as a mountain, turning a blind eye to the dragon who was surrounded by me, "I'm finally getting married, so I'm so impatient? Or else," he also fell down, put his hands in his sleeves, and turned to the dragon. I smiled and said, "No way."

...is the dragon slayer.I shook my head with a smile, and put away the pieces, "Yes, I'm very sorry."

"It's good to be able to gather the biggest advantages around you, but the most important thing is to live the game. It's not uncommon to win more with less."

Lin Mu laughed loudly from the side: "Xiao Xiaolan has been away for a few years, and her brain is getting worse and worse! Hahahaha!"

"Yes, I'm very sorry." I smiled helplessly.

"In your case, it may not be impossible to change the method."

I was stunned, and nodded with a smile, "Yes, thank you, Mr. Wen Xian." I was taught a lesson again.

Regarding the matter of helping Zizhou, I have been a little hesitant about what to do.In addition to making connections and looking for donations, the most important thing is what I will do.Although I like to be besieged by rich and powerful people, if I become a miser, Mr. Wen Xian will definitely scold me to death.It may not be impossible to change the way of playing in the future.

"Except for the tea house in Lanzhou, I want to donate all of Zhang's property."

"A tree is as beautiful as the forest, but the wind will destroy it."

"Yes, I will be careful." I need to spend the money in a low-key way, and it is best that no outsiders know about my donation.It is not a good thing for a businessman to be too rich.

Lin Mu reached out and rubbed my head, ignoring to mess up my hair, "You finally jumped out of the fire pit? Xiao Xiaolan, do you want to take a bath with me to get rid of the bad smell?"

I covered my mouth and kept laughing.In Lin Mu's eyes, the position of vice president of the Heizhou All-Commerce Federation that I worked hard to climb up to is a pit of fire?Just as I was about to say something, Lin Mu pulled me into the rain outside the pavilion, and I was soaked all of a sudden.Li Wenxian sat upright, laughing to see me being tossed by Lin Mu.

These two elders, really.

"Sister Lan." Cui Changfeng handed me a cloak, then turned around and dragged Lin Mu away with brute force with a cold face, turning a deaf ear to Lin Mu's yelling.

Cui Changfeng is 15 years old this year, a student of Lin Mu, and the grandson of Fang Baili, another vice president of the Heizhou All-Commerce Federation.Back then when I first joined the All-China Federation of Commerce, in order to make friends with Mr. Fang, who was in charge at the time, and seeing that this kid was really good, I recommended him to Longqing County. Only then was Cui Changfeng accepted by Lin Mu.

"Ah Mu's apprentice," Li Wenxian poured me a cup of hot tea, "it's okay."

I quickly walked back to the pavilion, took the tea with both hands, "Well, Changfeng has settled down a little over the years, maybe let him go out to practice?"

"Do you want to take him with you?"

"Me?" I laughed, "I have too many things to do in the next few years. Will Changfeng suffer? After Zhang's business is sold, I won't be able to give him a comfortable life."

"Following Ah Mu, I've already turned into a mud monkey, so what's the point of being uncomfortable?"

I wiped my mud monkey-turned self with a handkerchief, and laughed, "Okay, then let Changfeng be with me."

"Kui Huangyi, what are your plans?"

"Since the engagement, Huang Yi never let me meddle in his affairs."

"Well," Li Wenxian nodded, "he has intentions. Of course, just because he has intentions doesn't mean you will become stupid. Be careful and don't fall into a blind spot."

"Yes, I understand. Besides, Lord Wenxian, Lord Wangji said that he would like to see you before leaving, what do you think?"

"I'm gone."

"You don't seem to like Mr. Peak Season?"

"I don't like the way he plays."

"But you like Huang Yi who is exactly the same as Mr. Wang Ji?"

"They are different." Li Wenxian said with a smile: "Who said that teachers and students are exactly the same?"

"...Actually, are you trying to blame me for not being smarter than you?"

"I didn't say that, Xiaolan guessed it herself."

I smiled and covered my forehead.

"Peak Season is Wang Cai, Kui Huang Yi is Shuai Cai. So, very good." Finally, before I went home, Li Wenxian said this.

"Then what am I?" I asked one more time.

Li Wenxian looked at me with a half-smile, "What do you think?"

"……fool."

"Xiao Lan said it herself."

I said angrily, "Yes, I said it myself."

king?I rolled up my sleeves, and with the support of licorice, I got into the sedan chair and went back to Zhangfu.I didn't tell anyone about my conversations with Li Wenxian and Lin Mu in the pavilion. I didn't tell my father everything until the matter of Nazheng was finally over, the wedding date was set, and everyone had to return. .

"Father," I helped him walk carefully in the slightly water-stained courtyard, "Will you blame me?" I spent all his hard-earned inheritance in one go.

"Zelan made the decision knowing that his father would not object?"

I laughed and didn't speak.

There was an amiable smile on his old father's face, but his eyes were narrowed, exuding a momentum that was completely opposite to amiability, "Well done. You can discuss this matter with Zhang Zechi, the fifth cousin of your second uncle's family. Brother values ​​him most, so you shouldn’t have any problem asking him for help.”

"Yes." The second uncle passed away last year, and all the sons separated. The only one who remained in Guiyang, the capital, was Zhang Zechi, who was a head arrester in the yamen.

"Maybe you can tell Fei Xiang about this matter. The security in Beijing is not good. You'd better stay at Fei Xiang's house when you go to Beijing, so that you can take care of me."

"Yes, I will repair the book for my second brother tomorrow morning."

"If he's already too busy, don't bother him."

"Yes." After responding to my father's instructions one by one, I said, "My lord father, your living expenses will not change, I can handle it."

"Just dressed in white, will you starve to death on the street as a father?" Father laughed loudly.

"It's my fault, I made you worry."

"What's wrong? My daughter-in-law is the best in the whole country!" My father played silly to make me happy.

I smiled and helped him walk back to the room slowly, and waited for him to fall asleep.He is also 80 years old. Whenever I think that he may leave me soon, my heart palpitates and I dare not think about it.It's also my fault. Over the past few years, I have been less and less staying in Heizhou. This year, it's better to leave after August [-]th.

As soon as I returned to my courtyard, I saw Huang Yi waiting in front of my room with arms folded.

I smiled and said, "What's wrong?"

He lowered his arms and walked towards me, "Master Wangji and I will return tomorrow morning."

I also approached him, pretending to be stupid, "I know, so what?"

He stretched out his arms and hugged me, "Aren't you going to let me in?"

"...Can you stop teasing me in the middle of the night?"

"You said you can't do it during the day."

"... To be honest, I don't want to discuss with you when you can tease me. Can we change the subject? I beg you."

I heard him laugh.I patted him, then pushed him away, "Go into the room."

He raised his eyebrows, I ignored him and turned to the room.It's autumn, and it will be cold at night, so it's better to go indoors.It was an eventful time, and it would be troublesome if he fell ill.He was fine, so he followed in without me saying much.I closed the door and made him tea.

"Huang Yi, I plan to sell most of the Zhang family's property."

He went to light the lamp, "I also know that you don't want to go back to your hometown. Is it because of Zizhou?"

"Um."

"Listen to me, don't worry about Zizhou's affairs."

"Such a big game, I can't control it." I smiled.

After covering the lampshade, Huang Yi also sat down at the table, "Leave it to me, don't go to Zizhou."

"I said, do you think I'm useless more and more?"

"I don't know how to use it when I'm here, you idiot. Zizhou is not suitable for you now."

"Actually, it's not just Zizhou. The whole country is affected. Zizhou is not particularly dangerous."

He snorted, and said coldly: "If you can do the same, you won't be stubborn with me here."

"It's okay, isn't the second brother in Guiyang? I'll just go find him."

"Guan Feixiang? Why didn't you come to me?"

"No, I won't step into your house until I get married." It's better to be cautious, haha.

"Don't change the subject for me, this trick won't work." Huang Yi put down his teacup, tapped his finger on the table, "It's fine to do it, but you have to handle the matter of the Black State properly, so as not to let the old enemy take advantage of it. "

I pursed my lips and asked, "Am I really that stupid?" Both of them took me for an idiot.

He glanced at me, "Ah."

I covered my face, and finally laughed out loud.Well, I'm the one who is stupid, all of you court officials are smart people. "Huang Yi, are you not angry? You are also responsible for fattening the Zhang family." He really helped the Zhang family deal with a lot of official matters. Of course, I also helped him with a lot of things. up.

"It's best that you pack up everything for me right away, and just throw away everything in the Zhang family."

"Huh? Why?"

"Don't give me a chance to take advantage of you."

I felt a lot of black lines on my forehead, "...Is that what I should say to my fiancee?"

"I already feel very uncomfortable when I don't use something useful when I have it at hand."

"..." I rolled out the dead fish eyes.Isn't he quite experienced with women?Why is there no sweet talk?Could it be that men with poisonous tongues and black hearts are popular now? "I think I'd be happier if you said that in a different way."

"You can be proud." He looked sideways at me, "Keep an inch."

I laughed and said, "Okay, I made an inch of it." He was actually very nice to me.I stood up and poured him a cup of tea, then sat back, thought for a while, and held his hand, "Huang Yi, don't hesitate when you can use me, I think I can still be useful." I knew that He has married anyone.

"No, you're useless."

"...According to what you said, I think it would be better if I have some use."

Of course, we didn't cross the thunder pool half a step that night, we just talked about poetry and songs all night... Early the next morning, he returned to Beijing with the peak season, and stayed at Zhang's family as a betrothal gift. Son, a metaphor for an unswerving marriage contract.

Looking at the backs of Huang Yi and the others going away, I smiled.

So, very good.If it is a time of peace and prosperity, it should be more grand; if it is a time of war, it should also share joys and sorrows.Me and him should be fine, right?

Everything was fine at first, but on August [-]th, when I went to wait for my father to get up, I found that my father had already left.

Father passed away and passed away peacefully in bed.The doctor said he died of natural causes.The six-bedroom Saburo of the Zhang family, who was once a legend in the business world, passed away peacefully when no one knew about it.

I took a deep breath and planned the funeral. Although it is not suitable for major matters, I don't want to miss any of the etiquette that should be done.Because my father has no son and I am not yet married, it is difficult to decide who will die for him.Originally Huang Yi was going to rush over, but after thinking about it, I finally decided to let Guan Feixiang come.Feixiang Kuaima rushed over to help send his father off for the last time.

After everything was settled, I quietly knelt in front of my father's grave. Licorice and the others stood far away, only Feixiang accompanied me and knelt beside me.

"Second brother, thank you." It is a big deal to die for someone.

"What are you talking about?" Feixiang patted my head vigorously, "Master Zhang is laughing, Sanmei, don't be sad."

"Yeah." I paused, but I still couldn't hold back the tears that fell on Feixiang's shoulders.

"Okay, okay, Ah San, don't cry, eh?" Feixiang patted my back, "From now on, the butler will be your home, if you need something, just come to the second brother, eh?"

"There is one thing." I cleared up my mood and said softly, "Second brother, originally as the adopted son, I should give half of the Zhang family to you, but I have urgent needs right now, sorry."

Feixiang yelled: "Hey, you said that in front of the old man, who do you think I am! You can hear me clearly, old man, I didn't say it."

I twitched the corner of my mouth and smiled at his meaning, "Okay, it's my fault. Second brother, this money is used for another purpose, I would like to ask you for help."

"you say."

"I want to put it in Zizhou and contribute a little bit. I don't know Guiyang well, and there is only one cousin there. If I want to make things silent, I think I need the help of my second brother."

Fei Xiang's face gradually put away his playfulness, and became serious, "Have you figured it out?"

I nodded, "Yeah."

He patted me on the shoulder vigorously, "Okay, I will definitely help."

I still have things to do, father, you won't blame me for not sticking to the rule of not going out, right?I kowtowed three times to the grave, and with Fei Xiang's support, I made my way back to Zhangfu.

"The marriage between you and Kui Huangyi was originally in October this year, what are you going to do now?" Fei Xiang asked.

I shook my head and said nothing.According to the rules, if I don't get married within a hundred days, I have to spend three years in mourning first.However, I'm not in the mood for a happy event right now, so I'd better talk to Huang Yi later.

"Miss," Licorice came over and bowed to me, "Master Aoi has a letter."

I picked it up and saw that there were only four words on it: How could it be in the morning and evening.

My fingertips lightly brushed the crisp handwriting that pierced through the back of the paper, and there was a faint fragrance of ink on the letter paper.

Don't even have to ask.

I folded the letter, put it in my arms, and went back home with Fei Xiang to discuss the relief.I went to Bizhou in September to continue to deal with the affairs of the Jinhua Special Economic Zone in Chazhou. At the same time, I started to let go of the Zhang family's property, resettle my subordinates, and hand over the affairs of the All-China Chamber of Commerce.

It is too extravagant to want a serious illness.

After all, the father is gone.

Occasionally, I looked up at the sky in my spare time, only to see that the clouds and clouds were still there.
