Cheng Chuliang returned home with five packs of the best noodles in the world, feeling very good.
I feel that I have done a good job this time, and the old man will not hit me this time, right?
Maybe you will even praise yourself for being sensible and filial!
It seems that the old man has never praised himself a few times since he was a child, right?
When he thought of this, Cheng Chuliang felt very happy.
Unfortunately, things often backfire.
As soon as he got home, he was caught by the old man and beat up on his head and face.
Cheng Chuliang was immediately stunned.
Why?
You used to have a reason to hit me, but now you don’t even have a reason, so you just hit me?
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help but frown and asked: "Old man, why did you hit me? What did I do wrong?"
Um?
Something wrong?
Cheng Yaojin thought about it, why did he beat this little brat? What wrong thing had he done?
It seems that because the emperor praised his son for being sensible and filial, he wanted to come back and give the boy a good beating. That was the reason.
To say that he did anything wrong, it seems like he didn’t do anything wrong, right?
However, if I beat my son, isn’t that a natural thing?
Still need a reason?
"You are my son, I can beat you if I want! What did you call me just now? Old man? Let me make you old man! Let me make you old man!"
After fighting for a long time, Cheng Yaojin stopped when he was satisfied with the beating.
Then Cheng Yaojin said to Cheng Chuliang: "You bastard, learn from that boy Li Min. That boy saw that his blood was not flowing smoothly after sitting on his knees for a long time, so he specially built a set of Zhenguan chairs for him.
And Zhenguan table. What about you? When did you ever think of honoring me?"
Haven't I honored you yet?
Didn’t I send you two packs of the best noodles in the world?
Okay, although I deducted three packages, you can't say I'm unfilial, right?
Cheng Chuliang didn't bother to complain, because the old man couldn't reason with him at all and could only talk with his fists.
However, at this time, Cheng Chuliang remembered the business partnership with Li Min, and couldn't help but ask: "Dad, His Highness the Sixth Prince wants to do business with us, do you think it's okay?"
Hearing Cheng Chuliang's words, Cheng Yaojin was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Business? It's good if you get together and don't cause trouble. What kind of business can you do?"
Cheng Chuliang couldn't help but said: "His Highness the Sixth Prince said that we are going to do a business of tables, chairs and benches together, and we are guaranteed to make money. However, if we want to do business, each family must invest ten dollars in shares."
Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but ask: "What are the tables, chairs and benches for?"
Cheng Chuliang hesitated and said: "Anyway, it's just a thing for people to sit on. It's guaranteed to make money."
Snapped!
Angry, Cheng Yaojin raised his hand and slapped Cheng Chuliang on the head.
This idiot doesn't even know what kind of business he is doing, so he dares to partner with others to do business?
When the time comes, I'm afraid that I'll be sold by others, and I'll have to help them count the money.
The tables, chairs, and benches that guy Li Min was talking about couldn't be Zhenguan chairs and Zhenguan tables, right?
If it was really the Zhenguan chair and Zhenguan table I saw today, I wouldn't be afraid that I wouldn't be able to make any money.
But why did that boy Li Min drag Chu Liang into joining the gang? Could it be that he had some agenda?
Cheng Yaojin instinctively didn't want Cheng Chuliang and that boy Li Min to get too close.
Don't look at it, Li Min is a prince now and has a noble status.
But when the new emperor ascends the throne a hundred years after the emperor's reign, we still don't know what will happen.
If you get too close to him, you will inevitably end up in trouble.
Therefore, Cheng Yaojin has never wanted his son to get too close to the princes.
So now, when Cheng Yaojin heard that the Sixth Prince wanted to do business with Cheng Chuliang, he couldn't help but hesitate.
It would be too risky to get too close to Li Min.
However, Cheng Yaojin also felt that he owed something to Cheng Chuliang.
After all, his title must be inherited by his eldest son.
Cheng Chuliang was the second son and had no title to inherit.
The most important thing is that Cheng Yaojin vaguely felt that the sixth prince Li Min seemed to be different from before recently.
If you do business with him, you will definitely make money, and there may be surprises in the future.
However, this time the partnership business was only between Cheng Chuliang and him, not the entire Cheng family.
It's good, the whole Cheng family will benefit from it.
If he loses, only Cheng Chuliang will be affected.
Therefore, Cheng Yaojin finally decided to agree to cooperate with the Sixth Prince in doing business, and Cheng Yaojin not only provided money, but also found ten smart and capable servants in the palace.
…
Li Min carefully told Liu Zhi not to touch cold water, drink more hot water, be careful of getting cold, etc.
Li Min's concerned greetings slowly eased Liu Zhi's embarrassment and warmed her heart.
When washing feet in the evening, Li Min was not willing to let Liu Zhi serve him, but asked her to have a good rest.
When it was time to rest at night, Liu Zhi seemed to have learned some truths through today's events, and shyly did not get into Li Min's arms.
Instead, he deliberately kept half a body distance from Li Min.
Inside the quilt, because there was a gap between the two of them, Li Min always felt a cool breeze blowing between them, which made Li Min shiver from the cold.
So, Li Min directly stretched out his hand to pull the willow branch over and hugged it beautifully like a stove.
Sure enough, it felt warm all of a sudden.
As for Willow Branch, although the two of them have been hugging each other to keep warm these past few days.
But for some unknown reason, Liu Zhi's body stiffened involuntarily when His Highness hugged her like this today.
Immediately, a strange feeling spread.
Not long after, Li Min fell asleep happily.
As for Willow Branch, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
…
The next day, when Li Min came to school, he found that Fang Yiai did not come to class today.
This guy took a leave of absence, for half a month.
When Master Kong Yingda came to class, the schoolchildren clearly noticed that Master Kong Yingda looked like a national treasure giant panda with two well-proportioned dark circles under his eyes.
Their master had trouble sleeping last night and thought about why two stones fell to the ground at the same time all night long.
As soon as Kong Yingda came up, he looked at Li Min with an evil look in his eyes, held a ruler in his hand, and asked about Li Min's homework.
Li Min believed that if he couldn't answer, he would end up worse than Fang Yiai.
It's a pity that Li Min memorized the Analects of Confucius in his previous life.
Of course, over the years, memories have become blurry.
But it’s just the content of one article. After reading it a few times, you’ll remember it.
Li Min easily recited the content of the Master's question, which made Kong Yingda disappointed.
After the morning class ended, during the meal, Li Min, Cheng Chuliang, Yuchi Baoqi and others got together again.
Li Min couldn't help but ask them: "How have you considered doing business together?"
