When Yan Cheng asked about it the next day, Zhao Guogong said: "The second child is making a lot of noise, and your mother is indulging him. I thought about it for my father, why not find an opportunity to meet this Miss Xu San. If she has a decent character, that will be fine."
It’s his will!”
Yan Cheng was surprised: "Father!" He had clearly persuaded him before!
However, Duke Zhao Guo had made up his mind. He remembered what his wife had said last night, patted him on the shoulder, and said sincerely: "A Cheng, although the great cause is important, the peace and happiness of our family is fundamental. I have been planning for my father for many years, that is
In order for you to no longer be controlled by others. If you are allowed to endure grievances for this reason, wouldn’t it be like sacrificing the fundamental and pursuing the inferior?”
These words were meant to persuade, and Yan Cheng's face suddenly turned red and he shouted: "Father!"
Seeing his embarrassment, Zhao Guogong couldn't bear it and said in a soft voice: "It's not that you are wrong. You have been sensible and strive for success since you were a child, and you have contributed a lot to the family. But because you are too sensible, sometimes you would rather wrong yourself. My mother and I watched
It hurts!"
Yan Cheng then softened his expression and said, "Father, don't say that. I am your eldest son. These are the responsibilities I should bear. Even if I suffer some grievances, I am willing to do so."
But Duke Zhao shook his head: "No, for your mother and I, your brothers' happiness is the most important thing. We always scold Aling for being willful, but he is happy as he pleases, which is gratifying to think about."
Yan Cheng had heard these words from his mother before, but he didn't take them seriously. His mother was a housewife, so how could she know how difficult it was to support such a large family business? Sacrifices were inevitable. He originally thought
I thought my father had the same idea as me, but today I found out that was not the case.
"But I am the eldest son..." he murmured.
"Who said that since you are the eldest son, you have no right to do whatever you want?" Duke Zhao feigned anger, "Is it possible that the Yan family will fall if we don't marry into it? Then you look down on your father too much. The current strength of Duke Zhao's palace is...
It was obtained through more than 20 years of hard work as a father, not through marriage."
Seeing that the eldest son was in a daze, knowing that he needed time to think about these words, Duke Zhao smiled and said in a relaxed tone: "Well, there is nothing to do today anyway. Why don't you take a holiday, chat with friends, or go out for fun?
, go and relax."
After speaking, he patted his eldest son's arm and left with his hands behind his back.
Yan Cheng stayed for a moment, then turned around and went back.
When I walked to the garden, I heard Yan Ji shouting: "Left, left, run faster! Oh, look at others while running!"
He looked up and saw Yan Ji directing the boys to fly the kite. The kite was huge, shaped like a centipede, several feet long, and several people were dragging it around without even letting it fly.
Is this waiter changing his tricks again?
Yan Cheng searched the garden with his eyes, and sure enough he saw Yan Ling lying on a branch, cracking melon seeds.
He doesn't work hard himself, but still points.
"You can't run neatly, how can you let it go?"
"The thread will be torn apart by you."
"How stupid!"
Yan Cheng wanted to laugh, but he really couldn't do anything serious?
Just as he was thinking about it, Yan Ling saw him, sat up and waved to him: "Brother!"
Yan Cheng walked over and saw him jumping down from the tree, jumping in front of him in a few steps, and said with a smile: "The sun really rises in the west, why are you here?"
At this time, he is usually either in the military camp or in the Yamen.
Yan Cheng also smiled and replied: "I have a rest today. I am busy every day and am exhausted."
Yan Ling's eyes lit up, she showed approval, patted his shoulder, and pretended to be mature: "That's right! Anyway, my father is here, so I can be lazy when I have to. Brother, you finally thought about it."
"What are you talking about?" Yan Cheng disagreed, "My father is so tired, but you don't help share the burden, and you still feel confident."
Yan Ling could still be more confident and said: "Father, you don't have to be tired. What do we do with so many officials and staff? We have to let them do some work, and we just have to check it. Otherwise, what's the use of starting such a big business? No.
It’s just to make us live a good life!”
These words... Yan Cheng couldn't help but think of what his father said, it was really the same thing.
He had a subtle feeling. There were four people in the family. His mother was in charge of the back house, and his younger brother had followed his own desires since he was a child. He originally thought that he and his father had the same ideas and were the pillars supporting the family. Unexpectedly, they understood each other.
The minds are connected, and you are the different one.
With this thought in mind, he looked intently.
The two brothers looked very different. He resembled his father, and Yanling resembled his mother. This was something he had known since he was a child. But now he saw that Yanling's eyebrows and nose were very similar to his father's, even more so than his.
Yan Cheng felt a little unhappy for no reason, but thinking about it carefully, he had no reason to be unhappy.
Shaking off this feeling, he smiled and nodded his brother's forehead affectionately: "Only you can say it!"
Yan Ling was greatly surprised: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Did you encounter a monster last night? Or did you hit the door when you went out today?"
Yan Cheng was confused by what he said: "What are you talking about? It's a mess."
Yan Ling said: "You actually didn't scold me!"
Yan Cheng was startled for a moment and then laughed: "It's normal for me to scold you, right?"
After confirming that her eldest brother was in a good mood today, Yan Ling said casually: "That's right. You scold me whenever you get the chance. My father doesn't have strict control over you."
This time he said as usual, but Yan Cheng was in a different state of mind today, and his feelings were different. He smiled and replied: "Well, I am too strict."
After all, he was just an older brother, and his father didn't think anything of it. It would have been too much for him to care too much.
Yan Cheng relaxed his mind and asked him: "Have you told your mother about Miss Xu San?"
When he mentioned this, Yan Ling gave him a wary look.
With this look on his face, Yan Cheng wanted to scold him again: "If it's true, then it's okay. Is there anything you shouldn't say in front of big brother?"
Yan Ling hesitated: "Brother, don't you disagree..."
"So what if I don't agree? If you insist on doing this, what can I do?"
What this means...
Yan Ling was overjoyed: "Brother, so you agree?"
Seeing him like this, Yan Cheng couldn't help but laugh: "Look at your potential! Brother, I think it's inappropriate, but you like it, what can you do?"
Yan Ling hugged him happily: "I knew that eldest brother was the best! Don't worry, I will take good care of her in the future!"
Yan Cheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw him swearing.
What my father said was right. It was a good thing that he was happy.
Finally, the eldest brother agreed, and Yan Ling couldn't wait to drag him to his father to explain it clearly, so that he could get the right words.
Yan Cheng was helpless: "Father just promised to let me rest for a day, and you still want to drag me to the study."
Yan Ling flattered him: "Just one sentence, as long as father agrees, okay?"
What else could Yan Cheng say? He could only nod: "Okay, okay, hurry up and tell me."
When the two brothers entered the study, they didn't expect Duke Zhao to look solemn and throw over a message: "I'm afraid that Xiao Er's matter will not work out. The Xu family is going to marry King Dongjiang." 1603382717
