It is said that there is a Daliang Kingdom outside the Daughter Kingdom. It is a provincial capital called Lianghe far away from the capital Shengjing. There is Yunjiabao there, who is the richest man in Lianghe. His family's business involves all kinds of things, and he can do anything in the local area. Almost everything you buy has some connection with his family.
His family's business could have been bigger and opened more shops. What's strange is that his family stopped at Lianghe and didn't develop all over the country. What's even weirder is that his family never does business with the royal family. , the officials asked them to pay tribute to porcelain to the palace several times before, but they were refused for various reasons. There is also an ironclad family rule in his family that heirs of the Yun family are not allowed to practice martial arts or serve as officials in the court.
The head of Yunjia Fort is a woman named Du Ruo. This woman lost her husband in her early years and came to Lianghe with her children to start a huge Yunjia Fort from scratch.
Although this woman has reached an octogenarian age, her legendary business experience is something that everyone talks about after dinner in Lianghe.
Kneeling in the Yun Family Ancestral Hall late at night was a shaky and sleepy young man, probably about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was kneeling, it did not affect his tall figure at all. He was already sleepy at this time. He closed his eyes and frowned slightly, revealing a hint of childishness. Even though he closed his eyes, his handsome face could not be diminished. He was wearing a monotonous white plain dress with a black lotus belt tied around his waist. Comes with a piece of carved lotus sapphire. The body that was swinging around finally lost its fulcrum and fell to one side with a clang. This excitement drove away all his sleepiness. He slowly got up and moved, and his legs, which were already numb on his knees, went numb for a moment. It surged up, causing him to frown. He secretly glanced around and found a comfortable position. He sat up and kept mumbling: "I really don't understand why grandma doesn't let me practice it." Wu, this time I just took a peek at the military manual and asked you to kneel in the ancestral hall again. "
Inside the ancestral hall, there are brightly lit tablets and a few sparsely placed memorial tablets. The strange thing is that there are no names on them. The young man sat cross-legged and looked at the tablet in a daze. In fact, when he was very young, he asked his grandma why there was no name on the tablet. Grandma told him that the name was engraved in his heart when he passed away. , engraving the tablet once was equivalent to feeling sad all over again, so I didn’t engrave my name on the tablet again.
"Grandpa, I don't know which tablet is yours, but I want to have a chat with you. Why do you think grandma didn't let me practice martial arts and read military books? Hmm... Do you think someone from the Yun family was an official before? Who did you offend? Grandma was afraid of causing trouble, so she didn't let the Yun family become officials?" The young man sitting cross-legged had many questions in his mind, asking the silent memorial tablet, still indifferent to the breeze.
He seemed to have thought of something again and asked to the tablet: "Grandpa, let me ask you another question. Don't be angry!" He leaned forward slightly and said, "Grandpa, wasn't it when you were young? The official did not come home all year long to make grandma unhappy, and then after you passed away, grandma made this rule out of anger?" There was still silence in the ancestral hall, and the young man couldn't help but sigh. The doubts in his heart were still unanswered. He untied it.
"Master Yunhua!" Hearing someone calling him from behind, he turned around and saw an old man with mottled hair.
"Grandpa Changshan?" "Master Yunhua, please go back to the house and sleep late at night, don't get cold." The old man bent down to help the young man up, looking at the young man with loving eyes. Yun Hua is the young master of the Yun family. Because Yun Feiyang, the master of the Yun family, married late and had a son when he was almost half a century old, everyone in the Yun family is very fond of this single son. The mistress of the Yun family, Mrs. Du, is even more fond of this grandson. It's unbelievable that the old lady will satisfy everything Yun Hua wants, but she won't get involved in anything related to martial arts and officialdom. But this young master has been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and he wants to go to Beijing to participate. Because of this, his grandmother had punished him to kneel in the ancestral hall since he was a child.
Chang Shan was the old housekeeper of the Yun family. He was unmarried and had no heirs, so he treated Yun Hua as his own grandson. "Grandma isn't angry with me?"
"The old lady will only be angry for a moment. She loves you more than anyone else in her heart."
"I know grandma loves me and does everything for me, but why is she not allowed to practice martial arts? Why are you the only one in Grandpa Changshan's family who can practice martial arts while others can't? "
"Because my surname is not Yun, so..." Chang Shan said a little embarrassed. Yun Hua then said: "So you are different from me. I am a servant and you are the master. I have heard these words countless times.
"My grandma, father and mother never regard Grandpa Changshan as a human being. Is it just because my surname is Yun? What has the Yun family done that makes grandma so disgusted with martial arts? Grandpa Changshan, do you know the reason? "
"I don't know, old servant!" Chang Shan said.
"Aren't you curious? Have you never asked grandma?" Yunhua asked.
"The old lady has her own reasons for doing this. If you don't tell me, I won't ask." Chang Shan said, his life and life were given by the old lady. Even his name was given by the old lady, who taught him how to read and digit. She didn't despise his identity and took him in. He would believe whatever she said.
Yunhua, who didn't ask why, thought that when his grandma was happy that day and in a better mood, he would have to think of a way to make his grandma accept that he wanted to practice martial arts to serve the country's ideals. He was hiding around all day in fear of being discovered, which was not an option. He wanted to tell his grandma his true thoughts, and maybe his grandma would understand him. The next day, Yun Hua got up early and went out. Hu Hua, who was cleaning the yard, felt a little strange. When he saw his young master getting up, he put down what he was doing and went to fetch him water. Yun Hua finished washing up neatly. , he came to the hall and sat down at the dining table. Hearing the sound of footsteps, Yun Hua, who was at the table, turned sideways and looked outside the door. He saw a couple walking towards the house. The man was about middle-aged, and his brows showed a calm and inviolable aura. All the accumulation of his years was visible. Now on the face. His wife has a kind face and kind eyes. Although there are fine lines at the corners of her eyes, you will unconsciously be distracted by the corners of her mouth that are always raised.
"Good morning, Dad, Mom!" Yunhua greeted with a smile.
"Hey! You got up so early today? I didn't punish you yesterday in vain!" Father Yun mocked.
"Hua'er, don't make grandma angry again today. Grandma is old and can't withstand such joy and anger." Yun Mu said softly, looking at Yun Hua lovingly.
"Mother, I understand." Yunhua claimed obediently. After a while, a delicate-looking maid came to the house, supporting an elegant old lady.
"Grandma!" Yunhua quickly stood up and trotted to the old man's side. He quickly took the maid's hand and supported the old man. The old man threw away Yunhua's hand in anger and walked tremblingly to the house. The maid hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Yunhua was attentive in every possible way at the dinner table. He called his grandma one after another and kept picking up food for his grandma. He kept talking until his grandma laughed. Yunhua thought that when his grandma's mood becomes more stable in a few days, he must have a good discussion with her to let him practice martial arts.
