Sweat burst out from Samurai Yu's back, but he still held on tight.
His uncle, who was born in the Yang family of Hongnong and was one of the top nobles in the world, probably looked down on those submissive young people. If he wanted to get along with such a person...
The warrior Yu was still experienced. He had interacted with many people from the Li family in Longxi, and when he was doing business, he also had contacts with some members of the family.
Now that the two of them can talk to each other, it's a good start, especially since he calls him eldest brother and the other party doesn't refuse, which means that this relative has gained the upper hand.
However, the atmosphere is still not very good, and we need to continue to work hard.
So he nodded and forced a smile and said: "What the eldest brother is saying is that the two little beasts at home are not very good, and I will discipline them well when I get back.
But brother, don’t worry, given their ability, they are just getting angry and they don’t know how to be an official.”
Yang Gongren had a straight face and sneered: "That's not necessarily true. Judging from your appearance, you probably don't know yet, right? After you left last year, they blocked your mother from the door with an excuse. It just so happened. Guess who gave it to you?
Did you see it?"
Yang Gongren was having fun with his brother-in-law, who made him feel bad? However, he took time to take care of other people's family affairs, which also showed from the side that his anger gradually subsided.
Because he is a serious official, he can quickly look at problems rationally when his anger is gone.
For today's Hongnong Yang family, a minister of household affairs is not a small official position, and the many shortcomings of the other party can be tolerated in the face of the official position.
The warrior Tong was a little nervous, and Yang Gongren could tell him to guess. He was definitely not an ordinary person, and it wasn't the imperial censor. Could it be Wang Gui, the censor? Or the Chang'an order?
He really didn't know about this, and Yang didn't mention it in the letter in the end. The warrior Yu was in Jiangling, and even if he knew about the family affairs, he was out of reach.
Moreover, when the warrior Yun was here, he was quite indulgent towards his two sons, and it would be useless if they were far away from each other.
Looking at the confused warrior Xun, Yang Gongren didn't know whether he was pretending or if he really didn't know, and then said: "The family is not at peace, and you won't be able to serve as an official for long.
Nowadays, the Yushitai is becoming more and more powerful, and the inspection officials are becoming more and more severe, so you'd better take care of yourself."
Warrior Tong frowned, and his heart was completely agitated, "I wonder who saw the scandal, brother, maybe he told me? It must have been a long time ago, how come I didn't hear anything about it?"
At this moment, their conversation was a bit like the conversation between an uncle and his brother-in-law. One of them followed the instructions and the other listened to the lessons. However, it was very deliberate and did not mean much intimacy.
At this time, Yang Gongren waved his hand, "This is the Ministry of Justice, not a place to talk about this..."
The warrior Tong heard the song and knew its elegant meaning, and immediately said: "That being the case, will my brother still have some free time tomorrow night? Can I go to my house and listen to my brother's teachings?"
Yang Gongren stopped talking and just waved his hand like he was shooing away flies.
Samurai Yu took advantage of the opportunity to say goodbye and left the Criminal Department. Samurai Yu felt that the stickiness on his back was very uncomfortable, but he felt relaxed all over.
Although I didn't say a few words to my uncle, the effect was really good. This uncle I met for the first time was not that hard to talk to.
What he lacks now is such a backer. In fact, he has realized since he became an official that officials not only need constant support, but also guidance.
Otherwise, given his background, no matter how high his official position is, he is always in danger of overthrow.
He made good friends with Li Jing in Jiangling because he wanted to find a position among the descendants. Now that he can associate with the Yang family of Hongnong, it would be great.
Warrior Xun felt that his eyes were wide open and his steps were a little brisk.
…………
By the time the warrior Xun returned home, his excitement was over. He had been very tired from rushing back to Chang'an from Jiangling and just wanted to rest for a few days to regain his strength.
Mr. Yang and his servants were already waiting outside the gate of the mansion.
Seeing his wife, the warrior Xun became energetic.
He subconsciously looked around again, but he didn't see his daughter, and even his son was nowhere to be seen, and he couldn't help but feel sad.
Their family was not small. He also had two brothers and several sisters. The eldest brother, Shishi Leng, stayed in Jinyang to guard the gate, while the second brother, Shishi Yi, went to Yizhou and became an official with Zhang Yunzhi, the general manager of Yizhou.
They are the only family in Beijing...
The main reason is that I was scared a few years ago and didn't dare to stay in Chang'an for fear of retaliation.
When Samurai Yu came back this time, he still wanted to gather his family members together, but that was not an option if they were scattered all over the place. In that case, how could he build up the Wu family?
But now he saw that his wife was alone to welcome him back, and he felt really bad. He couldn't manage the whole family well, and if other people gathered around, there would be more trouble.
………
Fortunately, Mrs. Yang's face was full of joy, and from the moment they met, she never stopped trying to comfort her husband's hurt heart, which made the warrior Xun feel very comforted.
After entering the inner house, the warrior Tong asked: "Where are those two little beasts? I came all the way back, why didn't I see them coming to greet me?"
Yang finally rolled her eyes and immediately complained, "My husband is asking questions knowingly. I haven't heard about my husband's return to Beijing, so I avoided them first, lest you ask about their studies and their evil deeds after you left."
Samurai Yun habitually began to change the topic, not wanting to be in a bad mood just after coming back.
"Where are the eldest and second mothers?" As he said this, he thought to himself, the two daughters are still young, they can't escape, right?
Yang looked at her husband and said to herself that she was not in a hurry to tell him those bad things, so she smiled and said, "They are all here. I was afraid that they would be cold, so I didn't let them go out.
The same goes for my husband, it was winter when I went there, and I must have suffered a lot along the way. Why didn’t I remember it well when I came back, and why did I have to rush back in the wind and snow?”
The warrior Xun pretended to sigh and said: "Who doesn't know it's cold? I just can't help myself. The imperial court has summoned the documents back, how dare I keep them longer?
Besides, you’ve been out for more than a year and you don’t miss me?”
Now that they are an old couple, Ms. Yang didn't hesitate and nodded: "Think about it, why don't you want to? My husband won't leave when he comes back this time, right?"
The warrior Xun smiled and said: "I probably won't travel far in the past two years. You don't know that Jiangling is a really nice place. If it hadn't been for the imperial edict, I would have taken you to live there next year.
The mountains and rivers there are beautiful... I’m just not used to the weather there, but it’ll be fine if I live there for a while.”
As they talked, the couple entered the inner room. While Mrs. Yang ordered people to arrange the food and wine, and helped her husband to wash away the dust, she smiled and said: "My husband is well-informed, and the place you have agreed on must be good. Wait for my wife."
When my second mother and I are older, it won't be too late for us to go there and have a look."
While they were talking, two little kids were brought in.
They were still young when Samurai Yu left, and they hardly recognized each other after not seeing each other for more than a year. They huddled in their mother's arms and looked at Samurai Yu.
After some time, Wu Shun was older and looked familiar. After being urged by his mother, he broke away from his mother's arms and ran over. He hugged Warrior Xun and called him grandpa, which greatly comforted Warrior Xun.
Wu Shun was still so noisy and his mouth was never idle for a moment.
Wu Fu remained quiet, looking up at his father and sister from time to time, but curled up in his mother's arms, playing with his fingers all the time, like an autistic child.
"Aunt Hua is three years old, why can't she even call her grandpa?"
Yang said: "She speaks fluently than Da Nan, but she doesn't like to talk to others, but she does have ideas."
As she spoke, she knocked her daughter's little head and ordered: "Master is back, why don't you call someone?"
Wu Fu reluctantly called out, "Master..."
The warrior Yu couldn't help laughing, and the fatigue caused by the journey dissipated a lot.
When the food and drinks were put on the table, he held Wu Shun in one hand and chopsticks in the other. He took a few bites and then raised his glass and said, "You have been wronged at home. I offer you a toast. You can calm down. I'll wait for you."
After you have been busy for a while, drive those two little beasts out and live there so that they won’t cause trouble again in front of you.”
Mrs. Yang was greatly surprised. Ever since he married the warrior Yun, he had been at odds with his two stepsons. Several times he told his husband that he wanted to separate the family, but his husband always ignored him. This time he finally heard her husband take the initiative to let go...
…
Yang was happy for a moment, then looked at her husband suspiciously, "Why did you think of this just after you came back? But what did you hear outside?"
Warrior Xun shook his head, "Don't make blind guesses. I kept them at home before because I still wanted to teach them. Especially after we got married and you came from a prominent family, I thought you could control them for me."
As you know, I have been running around all my life and have not taken care of my family, so I have neglected them. It would be best if someone at home could control them...
But now it seems that I am just wishful thinking. They are all grown up and cannot continue like this forever, so it is better to let them go out and live their own lives, so as not to cause trouble for you and me at home."
Ms. Yang was relieved. If this was really the case, she would be relieved of her worries. So she raised a glass and drank two glasses with her husband. She was thinking in her heart that even if she gave those two little beasts more money, it would still be a big deal.
Get it done as soon as possible.
The couple had a great time drinking, eating, and teasing their daughter. After drinking for three rounds, Yang smiled and said to her husband: "Hua Gu has changed her name now. From now on, my husband can call her Erniang, but he cannot call her Erniang anymore."
Aunt Hua, she is pregnant."
Samurai Yu raised his head in surprise. How could he change his maiden name? He had found a name given to him by a very uncanny mathematician, so why did he change it immediately?
Over there, Mrs. Yang gave him a surprise, "Second mother's maiden name is Tang Nu now. How about it? It's grand, right?"
Tang girl... The warrior Xun touched it, but he was not happy, only shocked. Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, if you wanted to become an official, you had to change your surname. However, there was a Tang girl in his family.
, this damn, must be some son of a bitch who wants to harm me...
