Chapter 174: Right and wrong

Fang Yingwu left the Wang family feeling very unhappy. Although he had gone through many twists and turns since leaving his hometown, he had indeed gained experience and broadened his horizons.

At the very least, he has dealt with many important people and done several things that alarmed the court. He has been in and out of the governor's, factory supervisor's, commander's, and even the prime minister's house several times. This is an experience that every young man should be proud of.

If he was poor in the past, Wang Dahu might still be a figure in Fang Yingwu's heart; but in Fang Yingwu's eyes now, Wang De is just a lucky rich man.

So facing Wang Dahu, Fang Yingwu looked down. But such a rich man would treat him so lightly, which made Fang Yingwu extremely unhappy. Does Wang Dahu have the right to treat him so lightly?

However, Fang Yingwu still found it incomprehensible. If his father Fang Qingzhi was still a poor scholar with no future, and Fang Yingwu was still a poor boy living in a mountain village, it would be nothing more than Wang Dahu's indifference and rudeness.

But the current situation is that his father Fang Qingzhi is a Qinghan, and his future is uncertain, but at least he has a very high starting point; while his father Fang Qingzhi is a student before he is twenty, and he will be able to make a lot of achievements in the future.

Achievement points. With such a qualification, how much is not worthy of Wang Dahu’s initiative? Then is Wang De short-sighted?

After much deliberation, Fang Yingwu could only conclude that after Wang De's business became big, his mentality was so arrogant that he still didn't take him seriously. Or he was worried that Fang Yingwu would seduce his daughter, so he acted like this.

Arrogant and rude.

Fang Yingwu couldn't help but sneer a few times. Since Wang De is so careless, then everything should be settled. The mountains and rivers will not change, and there will always be a time to meet again.

But he said that in the front hall of the Wang family, Wang Kui did not return to his yard, nor did he let Wang De leave. He unknowingly raised his voice and asked: "Fang's father and son are not what they used to be. They are no longer what they used to be."

If you are a poor family in a mountain village, you will become a member of the officialdom.

It just so happens that they, father and son, have a relationship with us. We can totally accept them now, and they will probably be a big help in the future! I invited Fang Yingwu over, but brother, you pushed him out the door. I don’t know what you were thinking.

?”

Wang De explained: "I think about my daughter. As you know, Sister Yu and her son were very fascinated by Fang Yingwu back then. Now they have been separated for two years, and they are even colder."

Don't let any resurgence happen and ruin my plan. As you know, I am planning to recruit a son-in-law or marry a local wealthy man in Hangzhou, which will be more conducive to our business."

Wang Kui had no choice but to smile bitterly, "You are simply giving up eating because of choking. Did Fang Yingwu say anything about Sister Yu tonight? This shows that he is very sensible in his heart, but you are the one who cares about it! Is it because you are worried?

So you deliberately missed the opportunity?"

Wang De was ignorant and fearless and defended: "Actually, the Fang family just has a false name at the moment, it's not a big deal, they can't help us at the moment, they are really useless, and we can't say we have missed anything.

What's more, there are many people who are good at studying and taking exams, but not all of them have become big shots. There are still a few who can achieve success. We just need to focus on those few. Besides, the future of the Fang family is estimated to be limited. If Fang Qing lives in Tianlao,

I am very unpopular with the emperor, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to really stand out in the future."

It has to be said that Wang Dahu has been a small landowner in the closed Zhonghuaxi Village for decades, and his knowledge and vision are better than those of small farmers, not to mention that he is not very educated. This time he has been out for two years, and although he has done well in business and management, he has also gained some knowledge.

Progress has been made, but there are still flaws.

He failed to realize the dialectical relationship between county officials and current administrators, and that the officialdom was a network and that each individual in the officialdom was not an independent and separate entity.

Wang Dahu's knowledge is limited to the level of "the county magistrate who is close at hand is more useful than the Hanlin who is far away". This is not wrong, but the realm is too low-end, and the concessions at the low-end are unexpected.

Wang Kui didn't know what to say. Why can't he change the temper of his clan brother who refuses to admit his mistakes? He couldn't help but express his feelings: "I think you just can't think about it! When Fang Qingzhi repeatedly hit the wall, you looked down on him snobbishly.

The Fang family overturned the oral engagement and also tormented Fang Yingwu.

But I didn’t expect that the Fang family would be able to rise up now. The people you despised in the past have all climbed up on top of you. Do you have a little bit of unconvinced jealousy? So it’s difficult to treat them calmly?

When you repeatedly resisted the Fang family, it became more and more obvious that you had no vision. Did you feel ashamed in your heart? And now you may be asked to bow your head to cater to them. Do you feel uncomfortable and have lost your sense of balance?

I think it’s just that you’re still unwilling to bow your head and face the fact that they are better than you, so you’d better wake up!”

Wang De's face flushed slightly and he took a few deep breaths. Some secret thoughts in his heart that were not humane to outsiders were openly revealed by his clan brothers, and he was immediately a little angry. Anyone who encounters such a situation would be unhappy.

"Are you still surnamed Wang? Why do you always speak for Fang Yingwu!" Wang De accused him of being a guest.

Wang Kui shook his head, "It's true that you can't offend someone intentionally. That Fang Yingwu was obviously angry just now."

Wang De said confidently: "Don't worry, unless he breaks his face openly, even if he has this ability, he can't deliberately kill us.

In the eyes of outsiders, we are all fellow villagers who should be harmonious. People like them have to respect themselves and cannot have a reputation of being domineering and bullying fellow villagers. Besides, it’s not like I don’t have other plans."

Wang Kui sighed and said nothing more. As a clan brother, he is always full of little calculations and cleverness, but little calculations and cleverness cannot be used forever.

Fang Yingwu returned to the hotel and fell asleep. He said nothing all night. After getting up the next day, Fang Yingwu thought carefully and decided to stay in Hangzhou for two or three days.

After all, I am going to come here to take the provincial examination next year, and I happen to be passing by here now. It is not a bad thing to take advantage of the opportunity to familiarize myself with the environment in advance. If you understand the situation of Gongyuan and its surroundings, you will save yourself the hassle when it comes to the provincial examination.

In addition, Zhejiang’s literary style is extremely prosperous, and the number of people participating in the rural examination is also among the highest in the country. Every year in the year of the rural examination, housing prices around Gongyuan soar, and they are often expensive but not marketable. If you can rent a satisfactory house one year in advance, next year

It saves you worries.

In addition, Fang Yingwu also plans to visit the scenic spots in the West Lake. Nowadays, things have changed in two lifetimes. The people, cities, buildings, and streets have all changed beyond recognition, but the scenery of mountains, rivers, and lakes may still have some similarities.

Early in the morning, after entering the city from Wulin Gate in the north of Hangzhou City, Fang Yingwu walked around the Gongyuan in the northwest of the city to get a feel for the street conditions. Then he left the city through Qiantang Gate in the west and came to the West Lake.

Standing on the shore, Fang Yingwu looked far into the distance. At this moment, the West Lake in his eyes was both familiar and unfamiliar. The general outline seemed to be the same outline, and the shape of the mountain peaks seemed to be the same shape, but the details had changed a lot.

As the saying goes, the scenery of the mountains and rivers remains the same, but the people in the city have completely changed. Being a man for two generations, revisiting the old place filled his heart with unspeakable emotions. Fang Yingwu was dazzled for a while, and he felt a little confused as to what day it was.

Suddenly someone spoke next to me, "It's not fun just walking on the shore. You have to take a boat to go down to the lake to make your trip worthwhile."

Fang Yingwu looked sideways and saw a short middle-aged man. He smiled slightly and said, "Are you renting a boat? What's the price?"

Na Yazi thought that Fang Yingwu was a foreigner, so he came to sell the boat rental, but he didn't expect that Fang Yingwu was young but very sophisticated, and he revealed his plan at once.

But there is no need to be embarrassed. He stretched out a finger and said, "A large ship with more than 500 pieces of materials, or a finely carved boat, can be rented for one or two silver per day, and meals, female musicians, etc. are extra."

Fang Yingwu took a breath. The price was extremely expensive. The boat rental alone was almost as much as a normal person's monthly salary.

Na Yazi looked at Fang Yingwu's face as he spoke, and didn't care if Fang Yingwu found it too expensive. He immediately quoted a new price, "A ship with more than ten seats is probably not what you want, Master. Of course, there is also the smallest one."

The Grasshopper Boat is the most suitable for a solo trip like you, and it only costs 100 cents a day."

In fact, compared to today's economic level, one hundred wen is not cheap, but there is no need to continue to make a fuss. In my previous life, Fang Yingwu understood that a scenic spot must have the appearance of a scenic spot. If the consumption is not expensive, how can it appear to be a scenic spot?

?

One hundred pennies was still affordable for the current Fang Yingwu. He nodded and said, "Excuse me, let's take the grasshopper boat."

Na Yazi asked Fang Yingwu to wait quietly in the tea shed, and he disappeared in a flash. After an unknown amount of time, he reappeared, extending his hand and saying, "This way, this way."

Under the willow tree by the lake, there was a small willow-leaf-shaped grasshopper boat parked, and an old boatman was squatting on it waiting. Fang Yingwu got on the boat, and the old boatman swung his oars, and the boat swayed away.

Lake shore, walking towards the center of the lake.

In the late spring of May, the sun was warm and very comfortable. Fang Yingwu sat in the boat, leisurely looking at the surrounding lake and water, and his mind was wandering with random thoughts without any purpose. There was no need to have any purpose. He thought about where he was.

What comes to mind is what it is.

"Ms. Fang, look at the broken bridge in front of you." The old boatman was worried that Fang Yingwu would miss the scenic spot, so he reminded him.

"Oh" Fang Yingwu retracted his thoughts of letting go, but unexpectedly, a large boat drove straight past him.

The old boatman hurriedly rowed the boat to avoid it, but he made a mistake and accidentally fell into the water with his left oar. Although it was tied with a rope and was not lost, he failed to move the grasshopper boat in time, blocking the way of the big boat.

And at the next moment, a man who looked like a house slave in the front cabin of the boat stretched out his head and shouted curses in the direction. "Old Shacai, why don't you get out of the way quickly!"

The boat is in the style of a pillared pavilion, with no lattice windows, and is very transparent from front to back, left and right. Of course, it is impossible to seal it tightly when you come to visit the lake, so what kind of scenery can you enjoy.

Correspondingly, at this close distance, Fang Yingwu could clearly see the situation inside the boat. After subconsciously taking a few glances, Fang Yingwu's expression became extremely strange.

There were four or five men and women inside, and they looked like they were all young ladies from wealthy families. They were talking and laughing, and they were obviously very happy.

This is not surprising, but one of the beauties leaning against the railing is quite familiar to Fang Yingwu. It is none other than the daughter of Wang Dewang's wealthy family who he had thought of several times last night, that is, Wang Yu Wang Little lady.

At this moment, Miss Wang Yu accidentally turned her head and glanced this way, and happened to catch Fang Yingwu's eyes.

Someone she hadn't seen for two years suddenly appeared in her field of vision, and Mrs. Wang was immediately stunned, her eyes fixed and motionless. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster! )
