Chang'an City, Sang Mansion.
Mrs. Sang saw that her daughter's temper had changed a lot recently and she could calm down, so she taught her needlework.
Acupuncture.
It is also commonly known as embroidery today.
"Mom, how did you embroider this dogwood flower? How come my mother's embroidery is so beautiful, but my embroidery is so ugly?" Sang Meiren held the needle, thread and cloth, a little puzzled.
People in the Han Dynasty regarded the dogwood flower as an auspicious flower, which meant disaster relief and longevity.
so.
Most embroidery will use dogwood flowers as the background, and then add curly grass patterns and cloud patterns.
Mrs. Sang looked at her daughter and said with a smile: "If you study more in the future, you can make it look as beautiful as my mother's embroidery!"
Finished.
Then he taught his daughter how to embroider.
Just after a while.
Sang Meiren lost her temper and complained: "It's too difficult, mother, I don't want to embroider anymore."
"Then leave it here and have a rest." Mrs. Sang smiled and touched her daughter's head and asked, "Little sister, what's been going on with you in the past month? You look sad every day. I don't know. I thought you were seduced by a young man from some family!"
It’s okay not to mention it.
As soon as Mrs. Sang said this, her daughter immediately pouted and looked like she was about to cry.
Immediately, Mrs. Sang began to coax her daughter again.
At this moment.
Sang Qian came over with the little piggy in his arms and said, "Mom, just let her cry and ignore her. It will be fine. The more you coax her, the louder she will cry!"
After hearing this.
Sang Meiren immediately raised her head, glared at him and said, "Sang Qian, you took me here to have fun last month, and you don't care if I am bullied!"
Sang Qian shrugged and said, "You know you were bullied, but you didn't tell me what happened to you. I'm still confused, why did you suddenly call me brother? It turns out you met a powerful guy and was bullied. Yes, you deserve it!"
Two siblings bickering.
But the mother-in-law Mrs. Sang was shocked and immediately asked: "What, who was bullied little sister? Why did they bully you? Nothing happened, right?"
Said.
Mrs. Sang patted Sang Qian again and scolded: "Qian'er, how could you take your sister to such a dirty place!"
Sang Qian replied aggrievedly: "She wants to go on her own."
"You'll take her with her if she wants to go?"
Mrs. Sang glared at Sang Qian angrily, and then started asking questions about her daughter.
Mainly because I'm afraid of what will happen.
During the Han Dynasty, the daughter's family suffered a lot because of clothing.
Sang Mei is very smart and naturally knows what her mother is referring to.
Dangzhi said: "No, nothing can happen to me. It's just that I met someone I didn't like, had a little problem, and had a quarrel."
I heard my daughter say this.
Mrs. Sang's anxious heart was finally relieved.
At this moment.
The sound of Sang Hongyang talking to someone came from outside the house.
Although they couldn't tell who the other person was, they could still recognize the voice of Sang Hongyang, the male master of Sang Mansion.
"Dad is back!"
Sang Meiren stood up and said, "Huh, Sang Qian, I'll tell dad to roast the pig in your arms later."
Sang Qian threatened, "If you dare to speak up, I won't take you out to play in the future."
However.
However, Sang Meiren rubbed the cute little Qiong's nose and said, "I don't want you to take it, huh."
After saying that, she trotted towards the door of the mansion.
And at this time.
Sang Hongyang had already returned to Sang Mansion with a young man, and the two of them were still discussing things as they walked.
At first, Sang Meiren didn't notice Huo Guang.
He just ran towards Sang Hongyang and shouted at the same time: "Dad, I want to eat roast pig..."
The words are not finished yet.
Sang Meiren noticed that her father had returned with a young man. The most important thing was that the young man looked familiar to her.
Then he stopped and his eyes met the young man's.
In an instant!
Her pretty eyebrows frowned, and she felt a trace of doubt in her heart.
This handsome boy?
Why did he look like the blind man she met in the restaurant last time, the one who made her feel guilty and blame herself?
wrong! Isn't he blind?
at this time.
The people in Sangmei haven't come back to their senses yet.
The handsome young man opposite suddenly turned around and ran out of the house, shouting loudly as he ran: "Sang, I suddenly remembered that my uncle's house is on fire. Let's talk some other time."
This young man's behavior has made Sang Meiren gradually understand everything!
then.
She began to shout impatiently: "Stop!"
"Father, mother, Sang Qian!"
"Come and arrest this person. This is the person who bullied your daughter."
After hearing Sang Meiren's hysterical shouting, the young man could not stop at this moment.
Immediately!
Just run all the way out.
Seeing that she could not catch up with him, Sang Meiren shouted to the guards: "Hey, you two, close the door of the house quickly and catch this guy!"
The guards of Sang Mansion must listen to the young lady.
After getting to know each other.
Immediately before the boy was about to rush out, he closed the door. .five
then.
The young man had no way out, so he could only smile awkwardly at the pursuing Sang Meiren.
Sang Meiren was panting at this time, with one hand on her waist and one hand pointing at him, saying, "Aren't you running very fast? Are you running?"
"Oh, you can't run away with the door closed? Right!"
"Come!"
"Keep pretending to be blind, keep pretending and show me."
at this time.
Sang Hongyang and his wife had already arrived, and the entire Sang family, including Sang Qian, were all staring at the young man.
In the end, it was Sang Hongyang, the head of the family, who spoke first and scolded Sang Meiren: "Little sister, you are a girl's family, how can it be inappropriate for you to shout so recklessly in front of outsiders?"
However.
However, Sang Meiren said coquettishly: "Dad, this guy bullied me first, what happened just a month ago!"
What? My daughter was actually bullied in Chang'an? It was the champion brother Huo Guang who cheated him once!
Immediately!
Sang Hongyang couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "Huo Yilang, have you bullied my daughter?"
Huo Guang nodded awkwardly and said, "Well... well, the key point is that when this happened last time, I didn't know she was your daughter."
Sang Hongyang was immediately furious. He glared at the young man who was blocked in his retreat. He couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Huo Guang, although you are the same age as my daughter, you are the minister appointed by His Majesty. How could you be so ignorant?" Etiquette!"
"Honestly, how did you bully my daughter?"
"I'll wait until I finish listening."
"Think again. Should I go to His Majesty and give you a copy of the impeachment report?"
At this time, Huo Guang was surrounded by the Sang family in a corner and was feeling embarrassed!
After all?
What he did was indeed unkind.
But I heard Sang Hongyang say, do you still want to impeach yourself before His Majesty for this matter? Just for this little thing?
It’s worth declaring yourself a copy!
Huo Guang shook his head helplessly. After thinking about it for a moment, he could only sigh and said, "Shizhong Sang, actually I didn't bully your daughter very much. I just took the slap from her with my face."
Before Sang Hongyang finished listening, he started to scold: "That's not to mention bullying, but you used your face to pick up my daughter's pussy...Huh? You said it again, you picked it up with your face?"
"Ah!" Huo Guang nodded dully.
This time.
It was Sang Hongyang's turn to be embarrassed.
Because no matter how I heard it, I felt that his daughter was bullying others.
Immediately.
He coughed twice, relieved his embarrassed expression, and said, "Well... Huo Yilang, my daughter is still young and not very sensible, so don't worry about it."
"Well...don't care, don't care..."
Huo Guang was a little embarrassed when he said this. After all, I know exactly what I have done!
He immediately said, "Don't worry, Mr. Sang, I don't even remember what happened last month."
However.
When these words came out, the Sang Mei next to her couldn't accept it, and immediately said loudly: "Dad, that's not the case. Yes, yes, my daughter slapped him, but you don't know that he..."
The words are not finished yet.
Sang Meiren was scolded by her father Sang Hongyang, saying: "Shut up, you are a girl, what are you doing in a restaurant?"
"My father must change his unruly attitude from now on."
"Fortunately, I met Huo Yilang. If I had met His Majesty, I am afraid that this slap from you would have hit all the nine members of the Sang family."
Hearing what Sang Hongyang said, Huo Guang couldn't help but feel funny.
This is your Majesty?
Why go to the restaurant when you have nothing to do?
The three thousand beauties in the harem are much more advanced than the singers in his restaurant.
Thinking of this, I feel a little ashamed.
Then Huo Guang said, "Sang Shizhong is serious. Your daughter is very cute. I am very happy just looking at her."
"This way, I didn't entertain you well last time. If you come next time, I won't charge you any money."
"but!"
"Now let's talk about book and paper promotion. This is a top priority for you and me."
"Yes, yes!" Sang Hongyang nodded immediately, and at the same time made an inviting gesture to Huo Guang, saying: "Huo Yilang, please go inside and sit down, let's have a long talk!"
"Okay." Huo Guang nodded.
Then!
He walked towards the house where he was defrauded of toilet paper prescriptions last time.
But Sang Meiren pulled his father next door and said, "Dad, this man is bad, don't believe him!"
"Bad? Haha, now, being bad is also a skill!" Sang Hongyang pointed at the two brothers Sang Mei and Sang Qian, and said angrily: "Look at these people, they are the same age as you, and even older than Sang Qian. Two years younger. Now that I am so powerful, I have begun to share your Majesty's worries and solve his problems."
"Look at you two brothers again."
"Thank God for letting me have less worries as a father!"
After finishing speaking, Sang Hongyang ignored the brother and sister, flicked his sleeves and walked towards the house.
This made Sangmei even more angry and stamped her feet!
But there was nothing she could do!
As for Sang Hongyang and Huo Guang, after entering the house one after another, they knelt down together. After the maid brought tea, Sang Hongyang asked, "Huo Yilang, where did we talk about earlier?"
Huo Guang smiled faintly and said: "Use money to pave the way, launch comprehensive competitions in calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs, invite Confucianists to be judges, set bonuses, etc. This will open up the reputation of calligraphy and paper in Chang'an City, thereby replacing Jane Dou."
After hearing this, Sang Hongyang nodded and asked, "Where did this money come from?"
Huo Guang smiled and said: "The wool comes from the sheep. Your Majesty asked you and me to promote it, so naturally only you and me can do it."
"How much does that cost?" Sang Hongyang asked with a frown.
Huo Guang didn't say anything directly, but slowly stretched out a finger.
After looking at it, Sang Hongyang narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "One thousand dollars?"
What can one thousand dollars do?
I'm afraid that we can only invite a few farm workers to come over to work, and that will have to be when there is no busy farming season.
As for those Confucian disciples? I'm afraid it will be even harder!
So Huo Guang shook his head directly,
Denied his guess.
Sang Hongyang continued to guess: "That's 10,000 yuan?"
Ten thousand dollars, how much? In fact, it is only ten times a thousand, so why is it considered too much?
Huo Guang couldn't help but sigh.
Unexpectedly, Sang Hongyang, who was born as a businessman, was so stingy. He said directly without saying anything: "It starts from one million yuan!"
Sang Hongyang was shocked when he heard Huo Guang's quotation.
One million dollars!
That's not a small amount.
Sang Hongyang suddenly frowned and said, "Huo Yilang doesn't have any idea about money. One million dollars is not a small amount. You can take it out, but I can't!"
This is a lot of money.
But Huo Guang didn't believe it when the Sang family couldn't get it.
Sang Hongyang is a businessman.
Huo Guang would believe it if he said nothing else, but he said he had no money?
Sorry.
I can't believe it!
So Huo Guang thought about it and explained: "To pave the way with money is naturally to create a gimmick. The more money there is for the gimmick, the more people will flock to it. If this is promoted, the reputation of the book and paper will become greater. By then, I think It would be difficult for it not to become popular in Chang'an."
"and!"
"It's not like you have to pay alone, I will pay too! You pay half, which is only half a million dollars."
"How much does this mean to the San merchant behind you?"
When Sang Hongyang heard Huo Guang's words, he could only nod. After all, if you cut it in half, the feeling is much less, so I don’t care about it anymore.
now!
The most important thing right now is to complete what His Majesty has asked.
After thinking about it for a while, Sang Hongyang said, "Huo Yilang, let's make it this way. You and I will each contribute half. But how can we invite the Confucian disciples? These people are not rich. We can invite them, please give me some tips from Huo Yilang!"
I heard Sang Hongyang’s question.
Huo Guang smiled slightly and said, "I have my own method for this, please don't worry, Mr. Sang."
"..."
You two come and I go.
Chatting and chatting.
Soon it was getting dark, and Huo Guang was ready to say goodbye and leave.
But he couldn't resist the warm hospitality of the Sang family, so he was left to have the dinner.
Family banquets are different from palace banquets.
At the palace banquet, everyone has their own food table. As for the Sang family's dinner, there was only a large rectangular dining table. The Sang family, including Huo Guang, also knelt and ate around it.
at this time.
Sang Meiren looked at Huo Guang with an unhappy expression.
Then he suddenly patted Sang Qian who was cooking and said, "Sang Qian, this is the man who bullied your sister in the restaurant. Why don't you say anything?"
Sang Qian held his head high and asked indifferently: "What do you call me?"
"Brother, someone is bullying your sister..." Sang Meiren shook Sang Qian's arm and shouted reluctantly.
I heard Sang Meiren shouting.
Sang Qian nodded with satisfaction.
Then!
He thought for a while, then looked at Huo Guang and asked in a deep voice: "Huo Yilang, I heard that you run the Le Restaurant here, right? But I have a question and I want to ask you for advice. Can you think of it?" "
"Can."
Although Huo Guang could feel that Sang Qian's eyes were unkind, he still nodded.
Seeing that he said yes, Sang Qian said, "My sister said that the reason why she slapped you in the restaurant that day was because she felt disgusted when she saw you rubbing women's clothes on your face."
"Although this matter is already in the past."
"But I still want to ask, why is Huo Yilang so weird when he is in charge of consultant duties?"
Good guy...
Are you here to speak for your sister?
If it were anywhere else, Huo Guang wouldn't even bother to talk to him.
But now
, after all, we are eating in other people’s houses. If he didn't explain it clearly and spread it, it would really make people misunderstand that he was a pervert.
That's not good.
Immediately!
Huo Guang shamelessly said, "Because I invented and designed those things, such as silk stockings, roly-poly stones, toilet paper printed by the breeze, etc."
"There is something wrong with the production and manufacturing of these things."
"Shouldn't I be the first to experience it myself..."
He is explaining!
But seeing Na Sang Qian, he suddenly stood up.
With a shocked look on his face, he asked: "What, you made the Qingfeng Xiangyin?"
