T-Scroll Chapter 41 The standard equipment of a successful person, the reason for the struggle of a deceitful person
Seeing that Feng Ziying just smiled bitterly and said nothing, Xue Biao was also a little surprised, "Brother Feng, could it be that there is really something about this Mei Huang...?"
Feng Ziying shook her head, "I have heard about the situation of Brother Tao, Sister Baoqin, and the third son of the Mei family, but hearsay may not be accurate, and what I learned is mostly that his brother behaved inappropriately, which is not a big deal.
…”
Bao Qin covered her mouth and chuckled, her expression brightening people's eyes, "Really, the little sister mistakenly blamed Brother Feng, but the little sister did hear something about the Mei family, it's just that it's not groundless."
Being pushed away by Xue Baoqin, Feng Ziying thought for a while and then said: "In this way, I will understand the matter about sister Baoqin after I return to Beijing. If there is anything wrong, I will definitely tell him."
The three of them chatted for a while and agreed that when Xue Biao's filial piety period expired the next year, he would contact Feng Ziying and learn from Feng Ziying.
Feng Ziying also told Xue Biao that over the past year or so, he would also arrange for people to contact him to let him know some relevant information first.
In addition, I also asked Xue Tao to study the calculation method of Arabic numerals and the double-entry accounting method in his spare time, hoping that it could come in handy in the future.
When Feng Ziying went out, Xue Biao lowered his face and scolded his sister: "My sister was a little rude today. Brother Feng's visit today shows his character and temperament. Why is my sister so aggressive?"
Bao Qin was not afraid of her brother's blame. She lowered her eyelids and turned her pretty eyes slightly, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Brother, don't be angry. If Brother Feng is really what you said, then I'm afraid that the little sister's thoughts can't be hidden from him, and she won't take it to his heart. How can a man care about this with a woman?
A trivial matter? It’s my brother’s matters that need to be taken into consideration.”
Xue Zhu had a headache. His quirky little sister had been obsessed with thoughts since she was a child. As she grew older and her father passed away, and no one took care of her, this girl became more and more like a wild horse without a bridle.
"Sister, my family is no longer what it used to be. Even my eldest uncle is now the most respected person in Beijing. I heard from my mother that my eldest aunt was quite happy in her letter a few days ago, saying that my eldest brother is no longer as indulgent as he used to be in Jinling.
, being controlled by others is the credit of Brother Feng. The Daguan Tower, which has the first floor in the capital, was jointly established by the eldest aunt's family and several other children from the capital. Now the business is booming..."
Xue Biao also wants to teach his sister a lesson. Sometimes this girl is neither old nor young, and because of her young age, she sometimes offends people without even knowing it.
"Oh? The eldest brother also needs to be controlled by others, is it Brother Feng?" This was the first time Bao Qin heard this, and a flash of light flashed across his diamond-like eyes, "I didn't expect that Brother Feng had such ability and could actually subdue him.
Brother, then the eldest uncle and sister can rest assured. I wonder if eldest aunt mentioned the marriage of eldest brother and sister in the letter? In terms of age, they are quite young."
"That's not mentioned before." Xue Biao took a breath, "As soon as Brother Feng came today, my mind was set. With Brother Feng's advice, I will have a goal for my future brother..."
"Brother, don't try to increase others' prestige and destroy your own ambition. Aren't you already a hundred times more confident? So what if Brother Feng doesn't come? When did the Xue family brother become inferior to others?" Bao Qin frowned unhappily,
"Besides, Brother Feng is busy with his own affairs. Even if he takes care of you, I'm afraid he may not have much energy to care about you. He has to rely on himself. The Xue family never relies on others..."
Xue Biao shook his head with a wry smile, "Sister, don't look at Brother Wei who was full of energy and high spirits in the past few days. To be honest, it was all because Brother Wei was pretending to be in front of you and your mother. If Feng hadn't been here today,
The eldest brother came to give Brother Wei a piece of reassurance. Brother Wei doesn’t even know how long this energy can last..."
"Ah?!" Bao Qin's eyes widened and he looked at his brother in disbelief, how could this be possible?
"Sister, I know you are sharp and intelligent, but things outside are not as simple as we see or imagine. People are so sophisticated these days and the world is so cold. Once my father passed away, what about the business in Suzhou, Hangzhou and Yangzhou? Don't you think
Are you clear? If my father hadn’t made arrangements before, we would still greet each other in the name of the Jia family, I’m afraid the situation would be even worse..."
Xue Biao was very touched, "Now that my family's business is declining day by day, and my mother's energy is also low, Brother Feng said that he would hand over Fengrunxiang's business to me. To be honest, as a brother, he was quite moved..."
"Yes, why didn't brother accept Brother Feng's kindness earlier? Could it be that brother felt that Brother Feng was deliberately testing and actually didn't intend to return it to us?" Baoqin frowned.
"That's not the case, sister. With Brother Feng's current power, I'm afraid he has long since despised Feng Runxiang's small livelihood..."
Xue Biao flatly shook his head in denial.
"Didn't the third brother also say that? That's what Brother Feng used to practice, and he even paid more attention to the group of apprentices who were specially trained. Well, he learned the Arabic numeral calculation method and the new accounting method.
I thought that Brother Feng was planning to open the sea for a long time, and these boys were probably the first-hand preparations for the experiments and breakthroughs that Brother Feng said in the future..."
Both Xue Biao and Xue Baoqin learned the Arabic numeral calculation method and the double-entry accounting method. Baoqin had a special talent in this area. He was extremely clever in accounting and calculating, even Xue Biao couldn't keep up.
They were all born into business families, so they naturally understand how much the workload of their daily business has been reduced by such clear, simple and convenient accounting methods and calculation methods.
The key is that it is easy to learn and does not require advanced reading skills. You can get started with just a few hundred daily words.
For example, some of the Feng family disciples recruited by Duan Xigui were educated and could only know a few words at most, but they were able to practice under half-empty sailors like Duan Xigui.
Nowadays, every store in Fengrunxiang is run by these guys who do the daily accounting, and Duan Xigui even hands over the monthly accounting and auditing to these guys, which is so big-hearted that even the scorpions are stunned.
"From what I heard from my brother, did you make up your mind to follow Brother Feng to have a career? No, that's not right, you didn't follow him, but he asked you to go ahead and fight for him. Maybe you made a name for yourself.
If he gets fame and fortune and gets into trouble, then you..."
"Sister!" Xue Biao suddenly changed color.
Seeing that his brother was really angry, Baoqin fell silent.
"I don't know why you have such a prejudice against Brother Feng. Maybe you have inquired about some situations of the Mei family yourself and feel that Brother Feng's words are a bit concealed. But sister, you have to think about it. Brother Feng and the master of the Mei family are colleagues.
It is impossible for him to say those unconfirmed rumors casually? To put it more harshly, if Brother Feng makes some unflattering words today, will you feel resentful if you really marry into the Mei family in the future? If so
It’s just rumors, do you think Brother Feng is slandering the Mei family?”
Xue Biao said in a stern tone, "What's more, Brother Feng has also made his attitude clear. He has no friendship with the Mei family, and may not even have a good relationship. From his perspective, it is inappropriate to say anything. He is so cautious,
This is the best attitude! Be cautious in your words and deeds. This is also the attitude that a man and a Hanlin Academy editor should have!"
Hearing his brother's stern reprimand, Baoqin did not dare to speak harshly this time. After a long time, he said quietly: "Brother, please don't get angry. My little sister knows that she was wrong."
Exhaling a deep breath, Xue Biao then turned to look out the window: "Sister, I understand what you are thinking. You always like to say that you know people, know faces, but don't know hearts. I also know that the situation of the Mei family in the past few years has made my father and mother
I feel sad for you, but people are different. Brother Feng can achieve such a great reputation at the age of sixteen, and he is loyal, courageous, magnanimous, and trustworthy. This is probably the most fundamental thing. As for his talent, I’m afraid I have to put it aside.
It’s in the back.”
Bao Qin curled his lips calmly.
The elder brother didn't know that he had always been in contact with his elder sister in the capital. Although the elder sister never mentioned Brother Feng directly in her letter, the daughter's family worries were inevitably revealed.
Earlier at his mother's place, Brother Feng said that he and the second master Jia Jialian sent Lin Daiyu back to Yangzhou to visit her father.
secret.
It was Brother Feng who rescued Lin Daiyu, her father and their party. My sister also mentioned in her letter that Brother Feng often came to Jia's house and met her and Lin Daiyu.
But in the capital city, my sister and Lin Daiyu are both very old, and they have to go to visit each other. It is said that they are very close to the third girl of the Jia family, and he himself said that he has been engaged to the daughter of the Shen family, but there is such a thing
His behavior is clearly that of a slut who flirts with women during the Qin Dynasty and the late Chu Dynasty.
It's his brother who honestly only sees the good side of Brother Feng but doesn't know the other side of him. But what's the point of saying this? It's nothing more than a man admiring him at a young age, and it has even become a romantic legend.
Feng Ziying didn't expect that he had become so bad with Xue Baoqin. In his opinion, he treated people sincerely, arranged the future path for Xue Biao, and even considered the marriage partner for Xue Biao, and understood the elders of the Mei family for Xue Baoqin.
San's character has a long way to go, and he can be said to be worthy of the Xue family. He never thought that his impression would become that of a womanizer.
However, it seems that Xue Baoqin's analysis and judgment were not wrong, but Feng Ziying never believed that her behavior was unethical.
Isn’t this what this era is all about?
As long as you can shoulder the moral obligations you should bear, Three Wives and Four Concubines itself is prepared for the successful people of this era. In a sense, it is even the standard configuration for successful people. He should naturally strive for it.
