I had already planned to change my house and buy a maid, but now that I suddenly heard that Zheng Ci was pregnant, the matter had to be moved to the agenda.
However, even if you want to rent a new residence in Luoyang City, it is not easy to move successfully in a short period of time. After all, this is a place where land is at a premium.
In particular, Liu Jian must need a decent house at this time, after all, it concerns his wife and children.
If you want to handle this matter quickly and properly in Luoyang City, you still have to find a big boss to help.
If you don't use it if you have a close acquaintance, wouldn't your relationship with him be in vain?
If he doesn't agree, then cut off your ties with him.
So Liu Jian went to visit Yuan Ji personally and asked him to help him plan this matter.
When he arrived at Yuan's house, Liu Jian went straight to the house and asked Yuan Ji to help him. He used acquaintances in Yuan's house to help him find a suitable big house in Luoyang City, and also found the right connections to buy a few.
A maid from an innocent background takes care of his pregnant wife.
After listening to Liu Jian's appeal, Yuan Ji stared at him for a long time without saying a word, and his expression became a little awkward.
Seeing Yuan Ji's strange expression, Liu Jian couldn't help but wonder, could it be that his request was too much?
Thinking about it, this is all a trivial matter for the family. Yuan Ji is also a marquis and the leader of the Yuan clan, with a transcendent status. If you ask him to act as an intermediary to buy a house for you, it does seem to be a bit overkill.
The matter was settled very simply, and then Yuan Ji ordered people to prepare wine and meat and arrange a banquet for Liu Jian.
"Why do you ask people from the Yuan Mansion to rent a house for you? I can just give you a room! Liu Deran, do you still consider me a friend?"
"Hey! Women are afraid of this and that all the time. What's wrong with what I said? When my father went there that day, he also entrusted my uncle with this. Besides, if you just say a few words, will you really die?
Awesome!"
Liu Jian hugged the child and smiled: "Maybe I am more popular with children?"
"Um?"
Yuan Ji finally spoke, with an obviously unhappy tone: "Is this why you came to me?"
Liu Jian smiled and stretched out his hand to tease Yuan Chong, and said with a smile: "Children are born and become bolder when they grow up. I have a brother named Liu Bei who always peed his pants when he was a child. When he grows up, he is bolder than anyone else.
, this is the legitimate son of the Yuan family, and the person who will inherit the title of Lord and Marquis in the future. He is absolutely extraordinary, so the Lord and Marquis do not need to worry."
"This is a bit embarrassing."
Yuan's wife sighed: "It's just that you were an adult when my father passed away."
The servants of the Yuan family took orders from Yuan Ji and went to the back hall.
Yuan Ji introduced Liu Jian: "This is my wife and my son."
Are we really going to cut off our ties with him?
"That's it?"
Therefore, it is not a bad idea to take this thing, it is a fair transaction for everyone, haha.
Yuan Ji shook his head and said in surprise: "This child has been afraid of life since he was a child. Even in my family, there are very few people who can hold him without crying. Today, when he met Deran for the first time, he asked you to hold him. It's really
How strange!”
Yuan Ji took a deep breath, shook his head, and said, "It's not inconvenient, it's just that you finally asked me to help you once. Can you ask for more when you ask?"
"This, this is not appropriate, is it? How can I have the nerve to directly ask for the Lord's things..."
"I'm so sorry. Without you Liu Deran, where would Yuan be today? Isn't it nonsense to kill an acquaintance? Don't be polite to me in the future!"
The wine table culture was really vivid in the Han Dynasty. Liu Jian felt that the time he and Yuan Ji spent drinking was far longer than the time they spent doing business.
This chivalrous and heroic style was manifested vividly in the head of the Yuan family in just a short period of time.
"Strange, strange!"
Yuan Ji said to his wife: "Deran is my good brother."
Yuan Ji laughed loudly when he heard this.
To a large extent, Liu Jian helped him a lot.
Since Yuan Ji had good intentions, Liu Jian did not shirk.
Yuan Ji let out a long belch and joked: "Haha, no matter what, given today's situation and this situation, if something unexpected happens to me tomorrow, Deran, you need to take care of our friendship and take care of this child.
I am a loving father, so I should discipline him and not let him fall into decline."
Yuan Ji looked happy. He clapped his hands, called the servant over, and whispered a few instructions to the man.
In the astonished eyes of Yuan Ji and Yuan's wife, Liu Jian reached out and took little Yuan Chong from Yuan Ji's arms.
"Your Majesty regards me as a close friend, and I myself regard you as a close friend. However, your blessings are so profound that they are not comparable to those of ordinary people, and there is no need to support me."
In fact, from a practical point of view, there is nothing wrong with what Yuan Ji said. The reason why he was able to show his prominence and win the hearts of the people as the second generation head of the Yuan family in such a short period of time was indeed Liu Jian's planning on his behalf.
"As for the enslavement of maids, it's easy to talk about it. I'll send you a letter later. There are innocent maids in various offices in Luoyang. You and your brothers and sisters can go and pick them. If you like them, you can take them away without paying. Come back.
I will arrange for someone to complete the procedures for you."
Sure enough, Zhumen is full of wine and meat!
Yuan Ji waved his sleeves and said, "What's wrong with this? It's just a mansion. Based on our friendship, I'm just giving you a house, so what's the point?"
Liu Jian stood up quickly after hearing this.
Yuan Ji laughed loudly: "Man's misfortunes and blessings are determined by fate, and things in the world are unpredictable. How can you avoid it without telling him? If something happens to Deran, I will take good care of his wife and children! Isn't that right, Deran
?”
Little Yuan Chong looked back at his parents with a smile on his lips, and his chubby little face was right next to Liu Jian's.
Liu Jian knew that what Yuan Ji said today was just drunken childish talk, but even so, the fact that the other party was able to introduce his wife and children to him, and entrust his wife and children to him, showed that he was also very important in his heart.
Character.
"Isn't it inconvenient for you, Lord?"
In fact, this is not fundamentally different from someone directly giving you a courtyard house in the second ring road in Beijing.
After Yuan's wife finished drinking, Yuan Ji stepped forward, held the child in his arms, and sighed: "My wife and I gave birth to three sons. Unfortunately, the two eldest sons died young, and there is only this little legitimate son.
Yuan Chong."
After hearing this, Yuan's wife hurriedly said: "How can you talk about your own child like this? Are you ashamed?"
Liu Jian felt that whenever he came to talk to Yuan Ji about something, the other party would have to have a banquet with Liu Jian. Every time he didn't get drunk, it would never be considered complete.
After saying that, Yuan Ji teased Yuan Chong and said, "Hurry up and call Uncle Liu."
We chatted about the matter for less than half an hour, and after finishing chatting, we immediately started drinking...
Yuan Ji said helplessly: "Oh, this kid is just naturally timid."
Yuan's wife said from the side: "Husband, please don't talk nonsense. Are you drunk too much?!"
Following the rules, he did not look directly at Yuan's wife's face, but raised his hands and said, "I have met Madam."
Liu Jian then raised a crotch to Yuan's wife to thank her, and they drank with their faces covered.
He blinked his big eyes and looked straight at Liu Jian, not daring to say a word.
Yuan Chong is too young and quite timid.
Yuan's wife on the side smiled and said: "No, I think it is Liu Jun who is destined to this child."
He turned his head to look at little Yuan Chong in his arms, stretched out his hand and gently scratched the bridge of his nose.
Yuan's wife then ordered the servant to pour a bowl of wine and respect Liu Jian, saying: "I have admired your great name for a long time, and this bowl should be regarded as a tribute."
Yuan Ji sighed: "I hope so. It's just that he looks old at three years old. I feel that this child's character is still too timid after all."
Liu Jian couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: Yuan Ji either doesn't learn, or he learns better than anyone else.
Just a mansion?
After three rounds of drinking, both of them drank quite well and felt a little tipsy.
After a while, I saw a lady in her thirties coming to the main hall with a group of maids. A maid behind her was holding a young child in her arms.
While he was laughing, he suddenly saw Yuan Chong opening his small arms and reaching towards Liu Jian, saying "hug, hug!"
Yuan Ji joked: "What if?"
"just in case?"
Liu Jian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said helplessly: "If there is such a possibility, I should treat him as my own son, but it is a pity that in fact there is no such possibility."
"Hahaha, yes, in my Yuan family, how can there be such an eventuality? Just what I said is just a joke!"
