Chapter Two: Third Young Master Shen
When the servant came to call Chen Chen, it was already noon.
Now in autumn, in order to store winter supplies, the servants in the Chen Mansion are very busy. Whether they buy cured meat, charcoal, quilts, or cleaning cages and hand stoves, there are a lot of work. Therefore, the whole house gets up before dawn, and even the young ladies in the mansion have allocated things.
However, Chen Chen was the youngest and did not teach the teacher, so he was very idle and must sleep until early in the morning to get up every day, so no one cared about him.
But when he occasionally greeted him, his mother would scold him a few words, but Chen Chen never cared about his heart. He still did his own things and was free and easy.
The servant shouted several times before Chen Chen woke up from his beautiful dream. He heard that a new teacher came, so he was not in a hurry. While asking the servant to come over to get breakfast, he put his hands behind his head, staring blankly at the top of the bed, and became stunned.
This is Chen Chen's habit after waking up. He always stares blankly for a while. No one knows what he is thinking in his little head, but if everyone knows that Chen Chen still retains the memories of his previous life, he will definitely be shocked!
Chen Chen's previous life did not live on this land, but originated from the modern times.
His real name is Li Wenzhuo. He is one of the heirs of a large group. He has been favored by many people since he was a child and grew up in a honeypot. His father hopes that as the eldest son, he will be able to inherit the family business one day, but Chen Chen has no interest in doing business at all, and he has no ambition in life. He eats, drinks, and has no right career.
But even so, his identity as the first heir still caused trouble, and he eventually died in a car accident in an unknown way.
When Chen Chen woke up, he realized that he had come to a strange ancient world and was reincarnated as the third young master of the Shen family.
After calming down, he gradually clarified his thoughts. Although he had no ambition, it did not mean that he was stupid. On the contrary, among the three brothers, he was the smartest one, otherwise his father would not have high expectations for him.
Recalling his life carefully, he realized that there were actually many clues before the car accident, and the finger of his two brothers was his two brothers!
No matter which one of his actions was enough to make him feel heartbroken.
Since childhood, he has taken good care of his younger brothers and has never argued with them for anything. As for the heirs, he had already told them privately that he would never inherit the family business.
However, even if the compatriots are born and blood is connected, even if they have more than twenty years of brotherhood, they are not as good as their desire for the status of heirs, and they are not as good as the wealth that cannot be taken away by death. Looking back on the past, my heart is really bleeding.
But God has eyes, allowing him to come back with his memories and descend to the Shen family.
Although he has been a wild breeder since his birth, his elders and relatives in the family love him very much. Even this grandfather is still cold-hearted. Compared with the intriguing family in his previous life, there is more family affection here, which deeply touched Chen Chen and regarded them as relatives from the bottom of his heart.
He was cheerful by nature, and over time he didn't think about the things in his previous life, so he became the young master of the Shen family. Although he was used to modern life, he fell into this ancient world at once, and he was a little baby's body and had many discomforts, but this world was in line with his dream and he didn't need to worry about being an heir.
After becoming an adult, I rode a horse, traveled around the mountains and rivers all day long, married a few wives and concubines, gave birth to a bunch of children, and lived a simple life, and was happy to be free.
After breakfast, I came to the front hall and saw two people sitting in the hall. The above was my grandfather Chen Dinghai. Although the old man was nearly 60 years old, his body was very strong, and he was even more majestic and cautious because he had been an official.
The person who got off the seat was a kind-hearted and 60-year-old man with a thin face and a elegant posture, so naturally it was Li Chengfeng.
"I have met my grandfather and gentleman." Chen Chen bowed respectfully and stepped aside.
Chen Dinghai was quite excited at this time. He wanted his grandson to become a talent, but he was born with a naughty nature and could not control many of his men. It was rare for an old man to apply for a job today. He found out that this man was knowledgeable and well-known, and he was not comparable to those men before. He thought that he was afraid that this man would be able to subdue his grandson.
He cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Li, this is my grandson. Please pay more attention in the future."
"Mr. Shen, please rest assured. I will come to apply for the job immediately and will do my best." Li Chengfeng said with a smile.
"Chen'er, the old man's talent is amazing. You have to study well in the future. Don't be naughty anymore." Chen Dinghai reminded with a stern face.
Chen Chen nodded honestly. Although he could see that the old man looked much more generous and calm than the previous gentlemen, he didn't think much about it. No matter who the visitor was, don't disturb his leisure.
As a modern higher education, the ideas of this society can be described as feudal and backward and ignorant. If these teachers teach, they will not teach their heads to rust.
"Master Shen, can you let me talk to the third young master alone?" Li Chengfeng said.
Chen Dinghai knew that sooner or later they would be alone, so he gave Chen Chen a few words to make him honest and well-behaved, and then got up and left.
There were only two people left in the room. Li Chengfeng gently brushed his beard and smiled slightly, "I heard that Young Master Chen is good at painting famous works and asked someone to sell them outside?"
"I don't know where the old man heard nonsense, and the students have never done such a thing." Chen Chen spread his hands and denied it.
When he was four years old, Chen Chen walked around the mansion and entered the study room. He looked around here and there. When he went to bed at night, he suddenly realized that all the articles he had read were clearly reflected in his mind. He immediately understood, but he was afraid that he had the ability to remember everything he had.
Later, he gradually realized that in addition to his ability, he was also very capable of doing things by himself. He could copy all kinds of scrolls at a glance, so he had an idea to make some fakes and sell them for a small amount of money.
Although Chen Mansion is a wealthy family, it is not a wealthy family. At the age of thirteen, he only had a little money given by his mother occasionally. Thinking about it, it would cost a lot of money to travel far away in the future, so naturally he had to prepare now.
When he heard Li Chengfeng talk about this, he also guessed that it must be Wu Sanpang who missed it. He naturally denied it thoroughly. The Shen family was very upright. If the fakes were known by his family, he would be afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.
Li Chengfeng smiled faintly and said, "Young Master Chen, don't worry. I will not tell Mr. Shen about this, and I will not use it to threaten it. On the contrary, I appreciate your intelligence and talent at Mr. Chen."
He paused slightly, and his smile became stronger and deeper. "With the material resources of Chen's mansion, it is not difficult to collect some papers from previous generations, but Mr. Chen, you painted them on the popular paper nowadays, which shows that you deliberately left this flaw. In this way, most of the people who bought this painting are ordinary people with art and elegance, and true literati and scholars will not be fooled. Even if someone resells this work, I believe that the flaws can be easily seen by others."
Chen Chen couldn't help but glance at the old man and thought that this old man was very good at thinking and wanted to see clearly what he wanted.
Li Chengfeng said slowly, "Young Master Chen should know that Mr. Shen hopes that you will become a talent, and he is worried day and night, adding a lot of wrinkles and white hair. I hope that his descendants will become successful. But you don't like red tape and drive away your husband repeatedly. In fact, I also hate those dogmatic articles and advocate applying what you have learned. I also know, Mr. Chen, you like to hear interesting things in the world, so it is better for us to discuss a piece of historical materials and current affairs every day. Integrate knowledge into it, you can enhance your knowledge and make you more fun. In this way, Mr. Shen no longer has to worry about your studies. You only need a few hours a day, and once you finish learning, you can do your own things. I am also happy and can receive enough silver every month. I wonder what Mr. Chen wants?"
Li Chengfeng's words were a key point in Chen Chen's fate. And unlike those teachers in the past, he did not feel arrogant at all. Instead, he was like two people sitting on the ground, talking equally, and discussing.
Chen Chen felt that the old man was really capable, which made him weigh the pros and cons.
Although he was not Chen Chen in the true sense, since his birth, the Chen Mansion took good care of him. His mother's care, uncle's care, and grandfather's severity and kindness have made him feel the warmth of family affection that he had never had in his previous life, and it really touched him deeply. This is also an important reason why he decided not to think about returning to his previous life. Even if he returned to his previous life, what if he made up his mind to make a fortune? He was always alone.
He knew that he had caused many headaches for his grandfather over the years. If this old man was so good as he said, it would be a best of both worlds. If it was not as good as he said, he would find a way to drive him away in the future.
So Chen Chen bowed his hand and said seriously: "Students should listen to their teachings."
Li Chengfeng smiled with his beard and when he saw this young man, he could see at a glance that his extraordinary talent was even better than the rumors. After searching for ten years, he must devote his efforts to teach this son to become a pillar of the country.
The old and the young all have their own thoughts, but neither of them knows, because this encounter will have a significant impact on the entire land political situation in a few years.
