Gao Wu returns and becomes a neighbor in the courtyard Chapter 776: Establishing officials and virtuous people has been difficult for the emperors since ancient times, let alone the common people.
Chapter 776: Establishing officials and virtuous people has been difficult for the emperors since ancient times, let alone the common people.
Everyone was eating hot pot in Duan Hongxuan's courtyard while chatting about Yan Jiecheng of Yan Bugui's family. The conversation expanded into the failure of Liu Haizhong and Yan Bugui's family to educate their children, and they couldn't help but sigh.
Especially for Yan Bugui, everyone felt that Yan Bugui worked so hard to raise a family, but in the end he raised such a bunch of children, which really made everyone feel that Yan Bugui was not worth it!
After all, Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui are both the stewards of the courtyard. Although they don't like Yan Bugui's calculation and stinginess, they can understand it to some extent. Suddenly they heard that all their children are so selfish. Think about it in the future.
When the wealthy Yanbu couple grow old, can this kind of child support them in their filial piety?
Yi Zhonghai expressed doubts about this and couldn't help but worry about the old couple's old age in Yanbu!
Yi Zhonghai looked at Duan Hongxuan and said, "Hongxuan, if this continues, what will your third uncle and the other two do when they get old? You are very smart, do you have any ideas here?"
Before Duan Hongxuan could reply, He Yuyu said: "Master, please don't let Brother Hongxuan get involved again!
Yesterday, Yan Jiedi said it herself. Brother Hongxuan kindly reminded the third uncle a few words before. The third uncle felt that Brother Hongxuan had said something bad about his boss, so he wouldn't let Yan Jiedi come over to play anymore. He wouldn't even let Yan Jiedi come over for dinner.
have eaten!"
When Silly Zhu heard this, he immediately looked like he suddenly understood, "What do I mean, Hongxuan lets the children in the courtyard come to his place for dinner every day. They have meat every meal and give them fruits after eating. With such a good meal, what's wrong with Yan Jiedi?"
Suddenly it stopped coming. It turned out that the root was here!
With how much the third uncle loves to take advantage, he can resist letting his daughter eat such a good free meal. How resentful the third uncle is towards Hongxuan!"
The eldest mother sighed and said: "Can it be too big? No matter whose family you live in now, the eldest son in the family is the most valued. The elderly in the family place all their hopes on the eldest son, and they are usually the most partial to the eldest son. Even if the family is separated in the future
, the eldest son is also given the largest share of the family property, and we hope that the eldest son will provide for the elderly in the future!
Now suddenly someone comes to you and tells you that your eldest son is not good enough and will not be able to rely on you for his future pension. Who wouldn’t be angry if you let him go?”
Minister Lu interjected: "This should be considered a bad habit, right?"
Duan Hongxuan smiled and said: "Haha, it can be said to be a bad habit!
Not to mention the families of ordinary people, even those imperial families in the past, haven't they always argued over whether to establish an elder or to establish a virtuous person? Because of the issue of establishing an elder or a virtuous person, how many fathers, sons and brothers of emperors have killed each other!
Even the emperors and royal families are troubled by this problem, let alone ordinary people!"
Minister Lu said: "We have established a new political power, a new society and a new atmosphere, and those feudal dross should be thrown into the garbage heap of history!
The national law stipulates that all children should be treated equally, men and women are equal, and even girls should be treated equally with boys in the family!"
Duan Hongxuan smiled and said: "Uncle Lu, the law has stipulated it, but the specific implementation cannot be done overnight!
What's more, this is still a family matter, and the law is really not easy to control! This is mainly a matter of concept, but if you want to change the deep-rooted concepts in the minds of the people, this cannot be done in ten or eight years!"
Minister Lu nodded and said with emotion: "It seems that there is still a long way to go to change ideological concepts!"
Yi Zhonghai took a few mouthfuls of food with his head down, then asked He Yuyu: "Yu Yu, since Yan Jiedi said that Lao Yan wouldn't let her come to Hongxuan, what happened to her yesterday?"
Silly Zhu laughed and said: "Master, you can't understand this? Didn't you hear that Yan Jiecheng and his wife are rebelling at their house? Hongxuan said this right!"
Besides, Hongxuan sent dumplings to the third uncle’s family on New Year’s Eve!
With the third uncle being so shrewd, he would be really stupid if he is still angry with Hongxuan!"
He Yuyu nodded: "Absolutely, that's what Yan Jiedi meant yesterday!
Brother Hongxuan also felt that Yan Jiedi was still young and not so influenced by his brothers, so he said a lot to Yan Jiedi. Yan Jiedi still listened to Brother Hongxuan!
When Yan Jiedi left yesterday, Brother Hongxuan asked her to take back several apples, taught her how to share them with her family when she went back, asked her to build up more strength for the third uncle, and warned her that the way her elder brother and sister-in-law acted, she would be stabbed in the back.
Down to the bone, Yan Jiedi listened to it!"
Yi Zhonghai nodded and praised: "Hongxuan did a good job!"
Silly Zhu looked at Duan Hongxuan and said: "Hongxuan, you said so much to Yan Jiedi, do you want to leave a daughter for the third uncle to support them in their old age in the future?"
Duan Hongxuan said: "Who stipulates that it must be a son to provide for old age?"
Silly Zhu nodded: "Yes, that's right! Your kid's idea is different from others. You always think that daughters are better than sons. Your idea is really strange!"
Yu Li said happily: "I think Hongxuan is right. We women can't support the elderly anymore? When it comes to serving the elderly, we women are much better than you men!"
The deaf old lady laughed and said: "Yu Li is right! Haven't I always been taken care of by Zhonghai's wife? It's been more than ten years. She has taken good care of me as an old woman, but there is nothing wrong with her."
The rice made my wife hungry, it didn’t let her get cold when the weather was cold, and it didn’t make her suffer from heat stroke when the weather was hot!
If it were replaced by Zhong Hai or Zhu Zhu, it would be uncertain!
My wife still likes Zhonghai’s wife and Zhuzi’s wife!
My dear grandson is right, my daughter’s family is more considerate to the elders!”
Silly Zhu looked at the old man and said depressedly: "Master, did you hear that? We are no longer welcome by the old lady!"
Yi Zhonghai nodded, "I can see it!"
The deaf old lady smiled and said: "It's good to see it, it means you two are not stupid! You two gentlemen will make money outside from now on, and the money you earn will be given to your wives when you go home!"
The matters of making money outside are the responsibility of your elders, and the matters at home are the responsibility of your wives!"
The eldest mother said: "I don't have that ability. I just need to serve the old lady and Lao Yi well. I am not good at being a housekeeper!"
Director Luo said cheerfully: "What's wrong? Don't you see the old lady is supporting you!"
The deaf old lady said: "That is, as long as I support you, you can take care of the house! After all these years, you are actually not in charge of all these things in your house!"
The eldest mother said: "These are all trivial things. Of course I have no problem with it, but if something really big happens, our family will still have to make the decision!"
Minister Lu laughed and said: "Master Yi really married a good wife!"
Everyone burst out laughing. Yi Zhonghai looked at Auntie with a smile on his face. Auntia was a little embarrassed by everyone's laughter!
At this time, Hongxuan suddenly said: "I think, in the first uncle's house, from now on, the first mom will take care of the small things, and the first uncle will take care of the big things. What do you think, first uncle? Do you have any objections?"
Yi Zhonghai smiled and said: "No objection, whatever you want is fine!"
Duan Hongxuan said: "This is not okay. Whatever you say is okay? Now in front of the big guys, especially in front of the old lady, you have to say this, and you can't go back on it!
In the future of your family, the small things are in the hands of the eldest mother, so you have to listen to the eldest mother. The big things are in your hands, and the eldest mother has to listen to you!
Grandpa and grandma, do you agree?"
The eldest mother nodded repeatedly: "No problem, I agree, I will just take care of the little things at home!"
Yi Zhonghai didn't take it seriously at first glance, and nodded happily: "Okay, I agree!"
Everyone was watching the excitement happily, knowing that this was a joke!
Duan Hongxuan nodded solemnly, "Yes! You two have agreed, and you are all witnesses. You can't go back on your word!
So now let’s talk about what is a big thing and what is a small thing in the master’s family?”
"Ah?" Everyone was stunned when they heard it!
Just listen to Hongxuan continue: "The big things are, of course, the international situation, wars going on everywhere, which countries are powerful and domineering, national policies, what are the trends in the steel rolling mills, etc., these things will happen in the future.
Ah, it’s all under the control of the uncle!
As for the household's firewood, rice, oil and salt, the management expenses of salary and money, the arrangement of meals, and the greeting and delivery of neighbors, etc., these are all small things. From now on, these small things will be taken care of by the aunt, not the uncle.
Intervene!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter. The deaf old lady grinned widely and kept saying "hehehe!"
Yi Zhonghai couldn't laugh or cry, Si Zhu laughed so much that he slapped the table, pointed at Duan Hongxuan and said: "You boy, I want to control the international situation and national policies, but can he?
From now on, the first uncle will have nothing to worry about at home. No matter what happens at home, the first uncle will have to listen to the aunt's instructions. If he wants to spend a half a buck, the aunt has to give her nod!"
Duan Hongxuan looked at Silly Zhu and said: "Brother Zhuzi, these are all trivial matters, so I don't need to worry about them. Don't you envy me? Sister-in-law Yu Li, your family can also follow the example of my family!"
Yu Li smiled and nodded desperately: "Okay, I think it's okay! Cack!"
Director Luo smiled and asked Duan Hongxuan: "Hongxuan, what do you think of our home?"
Duan Hongxuan said seriously: "Uncle Lu is a minister. Of course he has to take care of national affairs, the family's economy and other small things. Aunt Luo, please worry more about these little things. Don't let Uncle Lu work hard for these little things. From now on, Lu
I have to trouble you to collect uncle’s salary!”
Minister Lu smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, I'm not afraid of hard work. I'm happy to share these so-called small things!
If I don’t share these little things, I won’t have anything to do with our family!”
"Hahaha!"
"Grrrrrr!"
Everyone laughed and laughed for a long time before the eldest mother smiled and said to Duan Hongxuan: "Hongxuan, when you say that, I feel that I am useless at all, because I don't care about these little things you said.
I’m a little worried that I can’t manage it well!”
Silly Zhu smiled and said: "How did I find out that this boy Hongxuan is a disaster? As soon as he opened his mouth, Minister Lu and I, our family almost lost our two sons! The first master simply became a victim.
The family earner has been working long-term, and we old men are so miserable!"
Yi Zhonghai also smiled and said: "My abilities are still not good enough, so I can only take care of small things, so I can avoid big things!"
I have remembered what happened today. When Hongxuan marries his wife one day, I will definitely tell his wife about today’s matter, so that Hongxuan’s wife can deal with these little things in their family from now on.
Take care of it and don't let Hongxuan worry about it!"
Yu Li smiled and glared at Silly Zhu: "Zhu Zhu, what do you think of Hongxuan's suggestion?"
Silly Zhu quickly said with a smile on his face: "Daughter-in-law, you are in charge of all our family's money. Aren't you satisfied? There is nothing big or small in our family. No matter what happens in the future, we will discuss whether to do it or not."
Is it done?
Don’t let this bad boy Hongxuan manipulate you into bad habits!”
Minister Lu smiled and nodded: "Zhuzi is right, Hongxuan is a bad boy. He thinks about making fun of people all day long, and now he even wants to interfere in our family's housework!
Tell me, what have you been thinking all day long? Why do you have all these bad ideas?"
Duan Hongxuan chuckled: "Just kidding, everyone is having fun, don't just enjoy yourself, hurry up and eat!"
