Cai Yong nodded, as long as Cai Wenji feels good. Although they have agreed to Cai Wenji marrying Yuan Shu, they still have to make their daughter satisfied before she can be happy.
"Father, what are you talking about?"
Cai Wenji was talented and intelligent, and she immediately guessed the meaning of Cai Yong's words, and her pretty face was instantly covered with red clouds.
"Haha, I didn't say anything. My father didn't say anything."
Cai Yong's hearty laughter came from the carriage.
The residence of Cai Yong's family is arranged next to Yuan's Mansion. This is the place reserved by Yuan Shu specifically for talents.
"Brother, I see that the armor of the personal guard is slightly damaged. Did you encounter any blind bandits on the road?"
After making arrangements for Cai Yong, Yuan Shu began to ask about business matters.
"Well, I did encounter some things during this trip. First of all, I met the Wei family's marriage proposal at the Cai family."
"Wei family, Wei Zhongdao of Hedong Wei family?"
Hearing Yuan Ji's words, Yuan Shu was immediately stunned.
"Little brother, do you know Wei Zhongdao of the Wei family?"
Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu actually knew Wei Zhongdao, the second son of the Wei family, which made Yuan Ji feel a little incredible.
"Do you know that Wei Zhongdao is a great talent?"
Yuan Shu smiled awkwardly
Nonsense, Wei Zhongdao was Cai Wenji's first husband in his previous life. Although I don't know what's special about him, as a scholar, you can't go wrong by praising him as a talented man.
"Well, Wei Zhongdao does have some talent."
Although Yuan Ji was still a little confused, after all, Wei Zhongdao was just a young boy whose story had not been circulated, and he was incomparable to a great man like Cai Yong. He didn't understand how Yuan Shu knew about this person.
"Let's not talk about him anymore. If we meet the Wei family, what happens next?"
Yuan Shu opened his mouth to put aside this topic, but he really had nothing to say if he delved deeper into it.
"Then the Wei family felt that they were inferior to our Yuan family, so they became malicious. In the middle of the night, they sent private soldiers disguised as bandits to break into the Cai family and try to snatch away the younger siblings overnight."
The hatred of killing one's father and the hatred of taking one's wife are one of the two most hated things in the world.
"Then naturally, the personal guards defeated the private soldiers of the Wei family after a fierce battle. The next day, Wei Jian resigned."
"The Wei family has a guilty conscience."
When he heard that Wei Ji was leaving the next day, Yuan Shu immediately guessed what he meant.
"That's right. Although the Wei family had a guilty conscience, they were still determined to be a thief. They actually sent Wei Hong, the chief instructor of the private army, with a large amount of gold and silver to King Yongnu's bandit camp, bribed the bandits there, and led 5,000 bandits.
Yongnu robbed and killed us."
"Five thousand bandits? Wei Hong underestimates me, Yuan Shu's personal guards. These people can ensure your safe and sound evacuation even if they face five thousand regular troops. Five thousand bandits are really no good."
When he heard that five thousand bandits dared to attack his elder brother, Yuan Shu looked downright contemptuous.
"Yes, the brothers fought a beautiful battle. They killed more than 2,000 bandits on the spot and captured more than 2,700 people. Only a few escaped."
Yuan Ji nodded. He really didn't know as much about his personal guards as Yuan Shu did.
"Well, that's how it should be. The Hedong Wei family, a declining family, dares to come out and make noise. Don't worry, brother, this battle must be calculated carefully for him."
As for what Yuan Ji said about winning the battle, he thought it was normal, but he decided to settle the score with the Wei family.
"Also, when we passed through Dongjun, we met Cao Ren and Cao Zixiao. He said that he had brought five thousand elite soldiers to protect us on Cao Mengde's order."
After talking about the war, Yuan Ji told Cao Cao's story.
"What is Cao Mengde doing?"
Hearing that Cao Cao sent Cao Ren to escort his eldest brother, Yuan Shu could not help but murmur in his heart.
"I don't know, but we must return this favor."
No matter what Lao Cao means, the Yuan family doesn't want to owe anyone anything.
"Okay, I understand, brother, if everything is okay, I will leave first."
Yuan Shu nodded. There was only one thing in his mind right now, and that was to discuss with Tian Feng and Xun Chen how to maximize their profits.
"Don't leave."
However, Yuan Ji pushed Yuan Shu down.
"Any thing else?"
Yuan Shu looked confused, what is going on?
"I know what you are in a hurry for. It doesn't matter if you put those things aside, but there is something that is urgent."
Yuan Ji looked at Yuan Shu and couldn't help but twist the corner of his mouth.
"What's up?"
Looking at Yuan Ji's expression, Yuan Shu couldn't help but be stunned.
"What's the matter? Of course it's your wife's and my brother's and sister's business. You are not allowed to go anywhere today. Just stay here for me and entertain your Taishan Cai Yong Cai family in the evening."
After hearing Yuan Ji's words, Yuan Shu's eyes almost popped out of his head. The reason why he stayed here was to drink with his future father-in-law.
"What are you looking at? Why don't you keep the Cai family with me today? I'll be careful to enforce the family law on my father's behalf."
Yuan Ji looked at Yuan Shu with a serious face, his eldest brother's majesty was fully displayed.
"Okay, I'll try my best."
Seeing that Yuan Ji was angry, Yuan Shu didn't want to touch his brow. After all, in terms of relatives, he only had Yuan Ji as his brother.
"Well, Uncle A, arrange the dinner to the highest standards."
"promise."
Yuan Ji gave an order, and the entire Yuan Mansion took action. The four general managers A, B, C and D during Yuan Feng's period now only have two old housekeepers, Yuan Jia and Yuan Ding. Only with these two old housekeepers can the Yuan family be guaranteed.
Superior etiquette.
That night, the Yuan Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and it was a festive and peaceful scene, and Cai Yong also came to the Yuan Mansion next door.
"Everyone Cai, welcome."
Yuan Shu was thrown out by Yuan Ji early on as a doorman to welcome his future father-in-law.
"Yuan Zhoumu personally greeted me, which was embarrassing for me."
Cai Yong was really flattered. No matter what he thought, he would never have guessed that Yuan Shu, the dignified governor of the two states, could serve as a doorman here to welcome him.
"There is nothing wrong with it. Although I have been promoted to state pastor, I am still a novice on the road of learning. I also hope that I can ask Mr. Cai to teach me more in the future."
Yuan Shu hurried forward to greet him. After all, he was his Lao Taishan. Being a doorman meant being a doorman. It didn't matter.
"Okay, okay, if Yuan Zhoumu doesn't understand anything about academic matters, you can always come to me to discuss it."
As a modern man, Yuan Shu is not as good as those top-notch resourceful people in trying to figure out people's thoughts, but everyone can still guess it accurately when trying to figure out a literary figure like Old Man Cai.
"That way I'll be in a lot of trouble then."
Yuan Shu also nodded and entered Yuan Mansion with Cai Yong.
As everyone sat down, a dancer came up to perform a dance, and the most common night banquet for wealthy families in the Han Dynasty began. Without Yuan Ji's signal, Yuan Shu spontaneously launched an attack on Cai Yong.
