After pondering for a moment, Zhu Kaishan nodded: "That's it, it's just a pity that we can't see a good harvest..." He drank a glass of wine.
"Why did you drink it yourself? Look at you." Wang Yan smiled, raised the small wine cup to signal to the boss and the second child, drank one, took a bite of vegetables, and said while eating: "Can't bear to leave?"
"After narrowly escaping death in the year of Gengzi, I came to Lao Jingou. It has been twelve years in the blink of an eye, how can I give up so easily?" Zhu Kaishan sighed and drank a drink with his good brother: "But brothers, The rumor is right, what are we going to do in Ice City? We are used to all this hard work, and we can’t take any time off."
"I had known this. I have prepared a shop for you over there, and there is a big house behind it. Then you can just start a small business and have something to do. It doesn't matter how much you make, as long as you are happy."
Wang Yan had looked at it before, and the shop he chose was the place where they opened the restaurant in the original drama. It was quite large, with two floors. Moreover, his 'Captain Governor's Mansion' and the house he arranged for himself in Bingcheng are all nearby. They are not far away. It's nice to have a meal if you have nothing to do.
"Uncle, it's all in vain for you to build a shop. We don't know what to do. We'll just sit there and have nothing."
"Don't worry, it's a big mountain and there's not enough to eat. As long as you don't smoke or play with money, how can I, my uncle, make you hungry? Don't even think about becoming an official. What's better than taking care of your parents? They are all important. This and the gold bars you hold with flowers will be used as a gift from your uncle when you get married, to give you and your new wife a foundation." Glancing at Zhu Chuanwen, who was unhappy and had not given up thinking about it, Wang Yan said a big yellow croaker Throw it away.
Although he could not become an official, he had a guarantee and cash, and Zhu Chuanwen had a smile on his face.
Zhu Kaishan shook his head: "You can't get into the big banquet."
The two chatted for a while, eating and drinking. Wang Yan said: "Brother Zhu, you wrote to me before, saying that you wanted to tell Xiu'er to Chuanwu. Was it Han Laohai who did it?"
Zhu Chuanwu sat upright in excitement, and winked at Wang Yan with an expression on his face that said, "You are my biological father, please help me." Then he turned to look at his biological father and waited for him to speak.
"Let me tell you, Xiu'er has been obsessed with Chuanwu all these years, and we have all seen it. Chuanwu is too old, and it's time to get married. His mother and I both think Xiuer is a good kid. Today, this kid When I came back, I told him, Damn, you’re a stubborn ass and won’t do anything. I said, why are you so confident? Are you here to persuade me?”
"That's not true. This kid thought he was stupid when he became a soldier. He held it all the way and didn't speak. I saw it in my eyes, so I started nagging you." Wang Yan said with a smile: "Now that the Qing Dynasty is dead, everything can be done for you." Changed. The rules of marriage have also changed. In the past, it was not about the orders of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. Now, it is said that love must be free, and two people must see each other before they get married. Of course, that is what they say, but Parents must also worry about it, and we can’t just let it go.”
"But Chuanwu, you are his father, and you know it. Xiuer is infatuated with Chuanwu, that's right, but Chuanwu has no feelings for Xiuer at all. You think Xiuer is very nice, so don't you It’s time to see what Chuanwu has been hiding from her all these years? It’s useless for you to think that Chuanwu is still living his life. We can do it even if we have to let him marry Xiuer, but what can the two of them do? Can you control him? With his donkey temper, what can you do if he gets married and doesn’t live in the same room? How about hiding in the military camp and not coming home all year round? How can I force him?"
"What kind of son is you? You should know whether he can do this, right? Wouldn't it harm Xiu'er then? How much harm will it do to her? If we don't think about it and go astray, then we are also guilty. Simply Ah, let Chuanwu find it on his own, don’t you think?”
Glancing at his second son who had a stiff neck, Zhu Kaishan said: "What you said is right, but what if Xiu'er is looking for death and a job? Besides, if Chuanwu is the prime minister, what will happen? If he doesn't get married, Chuanjie and What to do with Jade Book?”
"It's better for Xiu'er to seek life and death than to seek life and death again at Lao Zhu's house. She likes Chuanwu, but she doesn't have to marry Chuanwu. As for whether Chuanwu gets married, what will happen to Chuanjie..." Wang Yan shook his head and said: "Brother Lao Zhu, that's Lao Huangli again. Who said that if the second brother doesn't get married, he can't get a wife in the third place? Find him and see if I can have a good chat with him. Besides, I guess Chuanwu I have a sweetheart, but this guy won’t tell me.”
"It's nothing, uncle, don't talk nonsense. What about that, dad, uncle, I'm going to pee."
"What a bear." Seeing this, Zhu Kaishan didn't know that what his good brother said was true, so he laughed heartily.
Zhu Chuanwen asked curiously: "Uncle, how did you know?"
"It's not like you don't know what the conduct of my soldiers is. They are proficient in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. Although Chuanwu's men are new soldiers, they must be led by those who have seen blood. No, they are so good at everything. He went to whoring and gambling whenever he had a vacation. Chuanwu was promoted from a small soldier. I also asked people to pay special attention to his situation. In addition to playing cards with others a few times at the beginning and losing hard once, I have never seen him doing anything else, let alone visiting a brothel. Think about it, he is such a hot-blooded boy, and he lives in a gangster's den. He is still a young man after all these years, so he is not thinking about it. What other woman could she be?"
"Then, he has found someone he has fallen in love with over the years, otherwise he couldn't have avoided Xiu'er from the beginning." Zhu Kaishan was only forty-six years old, his mind was still alert, his reactions were pretty quick, and he figured it out all at once. Question: "I remember that this kid used to hang out in Shanchangzi. Could he be someone I knew at that time? If so, it has been many years. Who knows what the situation is? Brother, isn't that still a delay?"
"If you delay, please delay. I am still a wife who was married in my thirties. Chuanwu is now the battalion commander. By the time he is thirty, he will be a brigade commander. He has more than 3,000 people under his command. He is not as powerful as I was when I was thirty. Too much? Are you still afraid that he won’t be able to get a wife? "
Zhu Kaishan waved his hands irritably: "Okay, okay, I think Chuanwu is almost your son. I can't help you, and I can't scold him for being such a bear. Since you make the decision for him, then you will be responsible for his affairs from now on." Arrangements have been made. If the time comes to spread martial arts and fight against bachelors, your position as governor will be in vain."
Wang Yan laughed: "Brother Zhu, you are right to think so. Chuanwu is my nephew, can I see him as a bachelor? Let me tell you, it doesn't matter about the children, it doesn't matter what kind of face it is, the main thing is to let him The children are doing well. What's left is not good-looking and people gossip about it. It's useless. Don't worry about it." This time he wanted to keep Zhu Chuanwu and Tan Xian'er together. He gave him the vaccination first. Although it might be useless, he should say Still have to say.
"Okay, don't care about them, do whatever they want. Come on, come on, drink and drink."
"Come on, do it."
…
The meal with Zhu Kaishan was a good one. Firstly, it was the longing for not seeing each other for more than half a year and the celebration of the career of Governor Wang. Secondly, Zhu Chuanwen was getting married and the family was about to flourish. Thirdly, he was happy. It is the melancholy of moving away from my second hometown where I have lived for twelve years. Joy is also wine, and sorrow is also wine. This comes and goes, and the wine is consumed quickly. When Wang Yan left, Zhu Kaishan was already lying on the kang, mumbling in confusion, scolding Zhu Chuanwu. The old boy is holding back his energy and refuses to accept his old age.
When I got home, the shortcomings of having many children were once again evident. If there were only one or two, they would have fallen asleep, but there were six of them. Even if one of them was sleepy, the rest of them would also be invigorated by the excitement. When they got home, they were in a state of panic again. When all their energy was exhausted and they couldn't survive anymore, they were carried one by one by Wang Yan and sent back to the west wing to sleep.
We haven’t seen each other for more than half a year, and we are newlyweds, so it’s natural to have an in-depth exchange of thoughts about each other...
In the next few days, the two girls, who knew they were leaving, began to instruct them to pack their things. Although they could buy anything in Ice City, they had lived here for more than five years, so they always wanted to take advantage of it and were reluctant to leave it behind. Finally, when I was cleaning up, the one on the right packed up a bunch of things and came out with everything in a mess.
Wang Yan was too lazy to care. Although these two daughters-in-law had been with him for six years, the environment was so bad. The furthest they had been to Yuanbao Town in the past six years was that they couldn't spend any money, and their horizons only reached that point. It's okay to take them all away. Anyway, there will be cars and people coming to load them when the time comes, so he doesn't need to worry about it. The houses in Bingcheng are also big, and some have lots of space, so you can do whatever you want.
But having said that, the happiest person this time is Liu Zhi, because it is close to her parents' home and she can see her whenever she has nothing to do. Although she had resisted, he had married her to Wang Yan and they had one husband. But it’s not wrong to marry her. Wang Yan is a good man and a big shot throughout China. He can’t be more kind to his wife and children. And in recent years, although she has not returned to her parents' home, her parents have visited several times. Although I know that my mother's family has impure motives, they are still relatives, so the resentment I had in the early years has long since dissipated. He even asked Wang Yan for a body-building pill and had him sent back to support his parents.
As for his own things, he doesn't have much, except for some clothes, which he has collected over the years, and a book about the stars and the sea that he handwritten word by word. Taking into account the mess in Lao Zhu's house, three trucks are enough.
After packing up everything, it was already three days later. This was a great day for Zhu Chuanwen and Nawen to get married.
The specifications of Zhu Chuanwen's wedding were definitely incomparable to Wang Yan's. That was a record that would not be broken for decades. But although it can't compare to Wang's uncle, given the conditions of Lao Zhu's family and the good neighborly friendship over the years, the scene is not small.
Wang Yan has been helping over the years, delivering random meals to Lao Zhu's house, drinking wine, smoking, eating meat, etc., without spending any money. At first, Zhu Kaishan and his wife didn't want it, but Wang Yan was determined and gave it away, and that was all. There is no such thing as friendship and enmity. Lao Zhu understands justice well. And having said that, Lao Zhu’s golden vein chart was indeed of great help.
Without that gold, Governor Wang would definitely not be able to develop to the extent it is now. He doesn't even know how to take over Heilongjiang and Kyrgyzstan by force. Most likely he is still working as a bandit in the mountains. There is actually a lot of gold, gold has strong purchasing power, and gold is directly money. Even if Mr. Wang is a talented person, it still takes time to make money. In seven years, we managed to reach 160,000 troops, most of whom were armed with guns, cannons, airplanes, and various other related industries. They were far from where they are now.
To be honest, now that Governor Wang's territory is really calculated according to shares, Lao Zhu would have to occupy one-third, not just half. In terms of emotion and reason, this is what Wang Yan should give, and this is what Lao Zhu can accept with peace of mind, even less, there is nothing messy. This is why he gave Zhu Chuanwen a big yellow croaker, but Lao Zhu didn't say anything. As for Zhu Chuanwen, although he didn't know that his biological father told his good uncle, who was only ten years older than him, about the golden vein diagram, he had become accustomed to it over the years.
When Zhu Chuanwen got married, Wang Yan, an uncle in the family, couldn't be idle. He went over early to help support, and also sent two daughters-in-law to follow Zhu Chuanwen's wife to help prepare the banquet and other things. The children became lively again, and Wang Yan didn't need to worry. Even if there were no other children playing with his children, they were playing well on their own. There are also people watching over you, so you are not afraid of anything happening.
As for the other member, Ahu, he smelled the smell early in the morning and ran to the kitchen of Lao Zhu's house. He lay on the side and stared at the trembling and busy people with big eyes, eating and drinking. One of Wang Yan's tasks is to control Ahu when the wedding party arrives at the door of his house, so that he doesn't go out to scare people and other horses.
Zhu Chuanjie, who was wearing a suit and ties, and Xia Yushu, who was wearing a floral dress, came back the day before the wedding. They had been hanging out in vain for the past few years and looked like they were from the city.
Xia Yuanzhang didn't come back. He was Chun Hesheng's chief shopkeeper. He was responsible for all matters, big and small. Most of the time, he was busier than Governor Wang. The main reason was that he had too much desire for fame and fortune, so he didn't need to take care of many things personally. Now that the Commander-in-Chief Wang is in office, everyone knows that the Commander-in-Chief Wang is a complicit person. He is a person who travels all over the country and is treated like a guest wherever he goes. Compared to before, I get compliments everywhere I go, and it’s normal to feel confused.
As for Xiu'er from Han Laohai's family, she came over to help early in the morning, which made Zhu Chuanwu, the battalion commander, run back and forth.
Seeing his daughter who had not caught up with Zhu Chuanwu and couldn't find any trace of him and ran to the side while pouting while working, Han Laohai sighed: "Brother Kaishan, Brother Wang, are these two kids really bad?"
"Brother Lao Hai, my brother has told you clearly what's going on. It's hard to say what will happen when the time comes. Besides, Chuanwu is a soldier, so you should have heard about the current situation. Although I am a father, but Facts are facts. Chuanwu doesn't know when something will happen." Zhu Kaishan couldn't help but sigh: "That's good, it will save your Xiu'er harm. After Chuanwen's wedding is completed today, three days later We left without seeing or thinking about it.”
Han Laohai didn't say anything, but he understood. Wang Yan told him before, and he thought it made sense. But he only had this daughter, who was so precious, but he couldn't bear to see her sad. Of course, I don't want to make her sad now, but I have to be sad. Children's marriage is a matter between two families. If Zhu Chuanwu doesn't do it, there is nothing he can do. And to be honest, their family's Xiu'er married into Lao Zhu's family, which was a high ranking. He didn't know who the whole family was. There were too many of them, but he still knew the news that Zhu Chuanwu was the battalion commander. He had three to four hundred people under his command. What a joke? His own daughter doesn't even know her words, so it's really hard to force her into a match.
Looking at the depressed Han Laohai, Wang Yan gave him a cigarette: "Brother Lao Hai, the grandchildren here have their own children and grandchildren, and you can't force them. I know you are doing it for Xiu'er's good, but for such a girl, you want stars for stars, and you want the moon." Give it to the moon, but you can't care about it for the rest of your life. Although she may not be able to marry Chuanwu, she may be sad for a while, but it will definitely be good in the long run. And by then we will all leave Fangniugou, and we won't see each other again. I just don’t want to think about spending two days with my husband’s family again if you arrange a good marriage for her.”
"You don't need to persuade me. I understand the truth. It's not like what you said. What else can I do? Okay, I won't trouble you anymore. Just get busy." Han Laohai blew out the smoke and sighed again. : "The threshold of the old Zhu family is very high, we surnamed Han can't reach it..." Gu Yu
"Xiu'er is a good kid. Why don't you like Chuanwu?" Zhu Kaishan shook his head and smiled bitterly, but he didn't care about Han Laohai's words. They were rushing to send the girl to their home, but they didn't agree and were a little resentful. It's normal to use words to argue with each other: "Don't mention that bear thing, brother, I guess that's enough. You have to keep an eye on Ahu and don't let him mess around. If you scare the bride, I won't be done with you."
"Don't worry, I promise there won't be any problems." Watching Zhu Kaishan, who was dressed in festive clothes, being taken away, Wang Yan went to the kitchen to find Ahu, who was holding it on the ground, and took it to a corner outside. There are so many delicious foods today, and people are cutting them and feeding them. It is impossible to drive Ahu up the mountain, so we can only control him to eat less.
Ah Hu was lying comfortably on the ground with his eyes closed. Wang Yan was sitting on the side, stroking the soft hair and giving it a massage. Hearing the footsteps, Ah Hu glanced sideways, then closed his eyes and pretended not to see another person coming to serve me... …
"Uncle, why are you here?"
"Your father is afraid that Ahu will scare the bride, so he asked me to control him. Shouldn't he just find a place with a good view and wait for the pick-up team to come so that I can go in? Your brother is getting married, and you won't help with the work, just run away What kind of leisure am I hiding from?"
"I'm hiding from Xiu'er. She's too scary and I can't stand it. Besides, there are so many people working so hard and I'm not the only one left behind." Zhu Chuanwu smiled bitterly: "Thankfully, I have to move to Bingcheng..."
"Okay, don't be idle while you're in peace. Come, give Ah Hu a massage and serve our Uncle Hu."
The uncle and nephew were hiding from Dayang in the shadow of the corner, giving Ah Hu a massage and talking about the war. Soon, half an hour passed, and the sound of gongs and drums came from afar. Looking far into the distance, I saw a group of troupes dressed in red and green leading the way, followed by a grinning Zhu Chuanwen on horseback with a big red flower on his chest, and then a bright red sedan, bustling with excitement. Come this way.
After a while, a large group of people arrived at the gate, set off firecrackers, welcomed the guests, got off the sedan and entered the gate. They crossed the brazier at the gate and the saddles at the second gate and entered the yard. The master of ceremonies sang a song about butterflies flying up to the jade and scratching her head. The beautiful woman is happy to climb up to the Yuanyang Tower. Now she has a couple of branches, and she will give birth to a noble son soon and seek the title of marquis. Under the celebration of people, they worshiped heaven and earth, worshiped the high hall, and the couple entered the bridal chamber after doing so.
The pomp of Lao Zhu's family was not as grand as that of Governor Wang, and naturally there were not as many guests, and of course they didn't invite that many people, so this time only their family's space was enough, and no one else was needed.
The excitement inside had nothing to do with Wang Yan and the others, because they were staying under the shade of the trees in the corner outside, and they had to wait until the banquet started before they could free Ahu and go in to drink. But if you want to have a proper banquet, it will take a while. If you find the auspicious time calculated by the immortal, you will not be able to eat. Although they are all farmers in the village, the wedding customs that have been passed down for thousands of years are still very complicated.
Zhu Chuanwu was a very good executive. He would serve Ah Hu as he was told. He only raised his eyes to watch the excitement when the bride arrived, and the rest of the time he concentrated on massaging Ah Hu.
Looking at the festive crowd going in and out, Wang Yan looked at a relatively conspicuous woman wearing starched dark red clothes, carrying a package, and crying secretly. Wang Yan shook his head and smiled: "Password to the martial arts."
"What happened, uncle?"
Pointing at the woman in the distance, Wang Yan said: "That woman is a bit strange, she seems to know someone from your family."
Following the direction of his finger, Zhu Chuanwu looked up, his eyes widened in an instant, and he murmured blankly: "Sister Xian'er..." As soon as he finished speaking, without thinking, he stood up and ran over.
Wang Yan had quick eyesight and quick hands, so he grabbed him and pulled him back.
Although he admired his uncle's strength, Zhu Chuanwu couldn't care less about flattering him and said anxiously: "Uncle, he is Xian'er, the one my brother was engaged to before, and he saved my life in Shanchangzi. I have to stop her. Ah, why are you pulling me?"
"Are you really a fool to become a soldier? You can't do things without thinking?" Wang Yan slapped him on the back of the head: "Now Chuanwen is getting married. Didn't he say that Chuanwen had been waiting for her for several years before? If you take her in now , wouldn’t such a good life be ruined? What do you want your parents to say? You’re ignorant, you pig brains.”
Zhu Chuanwu frowned: "That's what we owe her."
"Yes, then you can't wait for a while? Keep her here first and tell your father in the evening or tomorrow? If I don't stop you, you will definitely take her inside. How much better can this happy event be? Are you happy? In this case, you take her to my house first, and then tell your father about this tomorrow, go ahead."
In response, Zhu Chuanwu stood up and jumped out. The dust raised by his feet flew up to A'hu's face. A'hu, who was enjoying himself, opened his eyes unhappily and looked at Zhu Chuanwu who was running away and was about to rush out for revenge.
Wang Yan pinched the soft flesh of its neck to prevent it from causing trouble. He muttered comforting words for a while, then rested its big head on his leg and continued massaging it. Ahu has a good human nature and a childish temper, so he needs to be pampered. He is as rare as his own children.
Seeing this, Zhu Chuanwu ran up to Tan Xian who turned to leave. Without saying a few words, he forced her to come this way. Because Wang Yan was on the east side of the house, and further east was the Wang family compound on the hill.
"Sister, this is Uncle Wang. Ahu was raised by Uncle Wang. He doesn't bite, so don't be afraid. He is my father's good brother. You go to my uncle's house to stay first. There will be good food and drink. I will give it to you tomorrow. Tell my father and the others the news of your arrival."
Tan Xian was dragged tightly by Zhu Chuanwu and couldn't move at all. He hadn't noticed it just now, but now he was in front of him. He looked at Wang Yan in front of him with some fear and the big cat lying on his lap, staring lazily at her. , said in a trembling voice: "Hello, Uncle Wang."
"Hello, I've heard about you. Go ahead. You have everything at home. What you're eating there is also a wedding banquet here. Have a good rest. We'll talk about it tomorrow if you have anything else."
"Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Wang Yan hummed and waved his hand: "Go ahead."
Zhu Chuanwu dragged Tan Xian and wanted to leave, but found that she was not moving, presumably because she was frightened by A Hu. This is not surprising. They say that domestic pets are not as fierce as wild animals, but I don’t know how my good uncle trained him. Ahu’s fighting power is quite strong. The surrounding mountains are Ahu’s territory, and he is the real king of the jungle.
He immediately turned around and pushed hard, carrying Tan Xian directly towards the hillock not far away.
"Look at how scared you are."
Ahu took a deep breath of dissatisfaction and felt aggrieved.
After a while, Zhu Chuanjie came to greet him: "Uncle, it's done. Come in and listen to the show and have dinner."
"gone."
Wang Yan stood up in response and followed Zhu Chuanjie towards the yard. Don't worry about Ahu, he ran to the kitchen by himself.
Getting married is an important event that happens rarely in a family. Moreover, it is not easy to have a good meal these days. Although every family has a lot of land, they have to buy it themselves, which is to supplement it occasionally for the children.
The table space at Lao Zhu's house was naturally sufficient, and both adults and children ate and drank freely. It was lively and the meal lasted until the evening. Zhu Chuanwu only showed his face once, and spent the rest of the time accompanying his sister Xian'er.
After eating and drinking, and helping to pack everything neatly, Wang Yan took his wife and children back home for a stroll.
"Uncle, I have something to ask you."
Wang Yan nodded, dismissed the children, and then took Zhu Chuanwu, who was gritting his teeth, to the study. Entering the study, Zhu Chuanwu knelt down without saying a word.
Glancing at the child with bulging veins, Wang Yan sat on the comfortable sofa, took a sip of hot tea to sober up, and said calmly: "What's the matter? Tell me."
"I want to lead troops to capture a landowner."
"Tell me what's going on."
"That's right, uncle, after I brought Sister Xian'er back, I said I wanted to marry her..." General Zhu Chuan told her what happened in the afternoon, from beginning to end, without hiding anything. He knew that his good uncle was not an old feudal man and was very open-minded, so he felt free to tell his good uncle what he said. And the most important thing is that he should have thought that his biological father would not agree, so he relied on his good uncle to support him.
This time, because Xian'er was not brought to the wedding, Wang Yan told Zhu Kaishan about their marriage issues a few days ago, and Zhu Chuanwu has been a soldier for more than five years, he has not made any progress in other aspects, but his temper is even worse. Straight three points. So instead of putting Xian'er in the wooden house in the woods and saying that he would not marry her as before, Zhu Chuanwu said directly that Zhu Chuanwen was already married and they had no chance. Xian'er had saved his life and returned his skin. They are in contact with each other, so their lives are connected, so they must marry her.
Of course Xian'er refused. In desperation, she told about the ups and downs along the way, and most importantly, the time when she was harmed while singing. Besides, she was engaged to Zhu Chuanwen and got married halfway, so she didn't let go.
Zhu Chuanwu's job as a soldier was not in vain, and the battalion commander was not in vain. He was asking his good uncle to lead his troops to kill Chen Wuye, who had ruined Xian'er. He also said very considerately that Mr. Chen Wu is located in a place called Chenjiazhuang at the junction of Jilin and Fengcheng. It is his own territory and will not involve other forces...
