Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

After chatting for a long time, Wang Bin said: "In the future, Wang Sheng may have to ask Marquis Yang to take more care of this child!"

Yang Zhengshan smiled and said: "This is a simple matter. When Wang Sheng comes to Beijing, I will go to the Imperial Army to find him a job!"

With Wang Sheng's ability and strength, there is no problem in becoming a middle-level officer in the Forbidden Army. As for higher-level official positions, it is not easy for Yang Zhengshan to arrange them.

After all, the Forbidden Army is not his territory. Lu Baishu can give him some face, but he cannot point fingers at the Forbidden Army.

"That's good. I don't want him to be rich or wealthy, I just want him to be safe and sound!" Wang Bin looked at Yang Zhengshan gratefully.

With Yang Zhengshan's current status, he actually doesn't have to worry about these matters of the Wang family.

Yang Zhengshan is willing to take care of their Wang family, which can only show that Yang Zhengshan is a person who misses old feelings.

He was very grateful to Yang Zhengshan for taking care of their father and son, and he was also glad that he had formed this friendship with Yang Zhengshan back then.

Suddenly, Yang Zhengshan remembered something, "How old is Wang Sheng's second son this year?"

Wang Bin raised his head in surprise, a little confused as to why he suddenly asked this question.

"I'm sixteen this year!"

"How is your temperament?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Wang Bin was even more strange, but he still said truthfully: "He has a dull temper, but he is a good boy. He grew up in Cheeyuanwei. As you know, my life in Cheeyuanwei was not very good, and he followed suit." A lot of pain!”

It’s okay to endure hardship, but it won’t lead to too much happiness either.

Cheorwonwei is a poor place, and even if you want to enjoy happiness, there is no place to enjoy it.

"Is there an engagement?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Wang Bin was stunned, "No."

"Bring it to me another day to take a look!" Yang Zhengshan said.

He wanted to marry Yang Wanting to Wang Sheng's second son, but he had to check it out first. The Wang family's family tradition was not bad, at least much better than that of Liu Zhe's family.

The Liu family has a tradition of keeping concubines. Liu Yuanfu even kept a house of concubines when he was almost sixty. Liu Zhe was even more romantic. Although there was only one concubine in the family, he often visited the flower shop when he was young.

In contrast, the Wang family did not have so many romantic debts. Wang Bin only had one old wife. Although Wang Sheng had a wife and a concubine, he rarely had romantic affairs outside.

Both the Liu family and the Wang family were included in Yang Zhengshan's inspection scope. As for being a good match, the Liu family and the Wang family were naturally not as powerful as the Yang family today.

Yang Zhengshan didn't value these things, and he thought it would be beneficial for his granddaughter to marry a lower-class family.

The natal family is strong, and the granddaughter has more confidence in her husband's family. She doesn't have to compromise all the time. If she is really wronged, the worst possible outcome is a divorce.

"What does the Marquis mean?" Wang Bin said with some surprise.

Yang Zhengshan waved his hand, "Don't worry, my granddaughter is very precious. If your grandson is useless, just pretend that I never mentioned this!"

"We are all old brothers, and I won't lie to you. If it's suitable, everything will be fine. If it's not suitable, don't blame me for not cherishing the old relationship. Moreover, it depends on what my granddaughter means. If she can't see it, If it’s your grandson, then don’t come to me to intercede.”

Wang Bin laughed, "I understand, I understand!"

He was very happy that Yang Zhengshan could consider marrying the Wang family. As for whether it could happen, he would definitely not force it.

It would be best if they can become in-laws. Even if they cannot become in-laws, the Wang family will still embrace the Yang family in the future.

"Let's go and have a drink! I've prepared some drunken wine today, and I promise you won't be able to afford it!"

Yang Zhengshan saw that it was getting late, so he took Wang Bin to drink.

…

In March, the temperature in Kyoto has warmed up.

The warm sunshine and tender buds make the entire Kyoto full of vitality.

This spring, the Yang family has been very lively. First of all, Yang Chengxian's marriage has been decided. The target is Zhu Mingqiu, the youngest daughter of Anshun Bo Zhu Rong, a very well-behaved girl with a graceful appearance, a gentle temperament, and a bit of agility. The kind of woman who is weak and has no opinion.

Yu Qingyi, Wang and Yang Yunyan all thought this girl was good, and Wu Zheng's investigation found no flaws in her, so Yang Zhengshan agreed to the marriage.

The two families have made a marriage contract and are now deciding on a wedding date, which should be completed in June or July.

The second is Yang Wanting's marriage. Yang Zhengshan finally chose Wang Sheng's second son. It's not that Liu Zhe's grandson is not good, but that Liu Zhe's grandson is a little too smart. At first glance, he is the kind of smart guy who will definitely take the next step in the future. Imperial examination.

Such a young talent is full of arrogance and may have a bright future, but he is not necessarily a good match.

Yang Zhengshan never chooses those with outstanding talents when choosing a son-in-law, because in his opinion, the best match is for his daughter's family to find a husband who can live a stable life.

For example, Jiang He and Liang Jinyan are both gentle, down-to-earth and steady men. They may not be rich in the future, but they can provide a stable home for their wives and children.

Qu Changkong is an exception. That was Yang Wanqing's choice. Yang Wanqing's life in the Qu family is definitely not as easy as Yang Yunxue's life in the Liang family.

Because Yang Wanqing needs to bear a lot of responsibilities and obligations in the Qu family, just having children may require Yang Wanqing to compromise.

In contrast, Yang Yunxue did not have any pressure in the Liang family. Liang Jinyan did not need to inherit the title, nor did he need to bear too many responsibilities. The couple just had to live their own lives.

So now Yang Yunyan and Yang Yunxue are living very comfortably.

Wang Sheng's second son is called Wang Qianzhong. He has an elder brother who inherits the family business and a younger brother who helps each other. He is honest and reliable, tall and strong, and looks good. He is much more handsome than Wang Sheng.

Moreover, his martial arts aptitude is not bad. He became a martial artist when he was just sixteen years old. If he is trained well, his future cultivation will not necessarily be lower than Yang Wanting.

After Yang Wanting met Wang Qianzhong, she shyly said "Please let grandpa decide". Then Yang Zhengshan and Wang Bin decided on the marriage of the two children.

After Yang Chengxian and Yang Wanting's marriage was decided, Yang Zhengshan was relieved.

Marriage is a major family event and cannot be sloppy at all. Yang Zhengshan also spent a lot of brains.

The key is that the children of the Yang family grow up one after another. After Yang Chengxian, Yang Wanting and Jiang Miao get married, it will be Yang Mingzhao's turn.

Yang Mingzhao is twelve years old this year. In two or three years, it will be time to talk about marriage.

Behind Yang Mingzhao were Yang Chengyou, Yang Chengzhang, Yang Wanning and others.

Time passed quickly, and the children grew up quickly. In the blink of an eye, a group of little kids became teenagers.

Wang Sheng came to Kyoto from Ludong in early March. His wife and children, as well as Yang Qinwu and Yang Chengche, came with him.

The two guys followed Wang Bin to Beiyuan Town. Before that, Wang Bin wanted his wife and children to escape from Beiyuan Town, so he entrusted Yang Qinwu and Yang Chengche to escort them.

For several days, Yang Zhengshan first met with Wang Qianzhong, then arranged Wang Sheng's job, and then settled the marriage between Wang Qianzhong and Yang Wanting. Finally, he had time to have a good chat with the two Yang children.

In the study, two rough men stood in front of Yang Zhengshan.

After more than ten years, Yang Chengche and Yang Qinwu have changed a lot.

Now Yang Chengche is in his forties, and Yang Qinwu is thirty-three years old.

When Yang Zhengshan went to Chongshan Town, Yang Qinwu was only fourteen years old. He was the youngest and the youngest among Yang Mingwu and Yang Chengze.

"Alas, you have suffered so much over the years!" Yang Zhengshan said with a sigh.

Things are unpredictable. Yang Zhengshan asked him to follow Wang Bin to Beiyuan Town in the hope that they could make a name for themselves in Beiyuan Town.

Who would have thought that Wang Bin was suppressed in Beiyuan Town, and they were also restricted in Beiyuan Town.

Now, Yang Mingwu, Yang Chengze and others are guerrilla generals in Chongshan Town, while they are actually thousand households in Tieyuanwei.

Not only the difference in official positions, but also the difference in cultivation.

Yang Mingwu, Yang Chengze, Yang Chengxu, Yang Mingzhen and others are now ninth-level warriors, and their cultivation is eighth-level and seventh-level respectively.

Yang Chengche shook his head slightly, "Grandpa Zhengshan, we are not good enough and did not help General Wang to open up the situation in Beiyuan Town!"

Yang Qinwu was a little dejected and kept his head down.

Yang Zhengshan patted their shoulders, "Okay, you don't have to blame yourself, it's not your fault!"

It's really not their fault. In Beiyuan Town, even Wang Bin had no way to deal with it, let alone them.

"Where are your wives and children?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Yang Chengche said bitterly: "Life in Tieyuanwei is too hard, so we sent our wives and children back to Yangjia Village!"

"Well! What are your plans for the future?" Yang Zhengshan asked again.

Yang Chengche shook his head, "I don't know, maybe I will go back to Yangjia Village!"

"Don't want to be an official anymore?"

"No! Enough!" Yang Chengche said with a decadent look.

Yang Zhengshan looked at them, feeling distressed and guilty.

Perhaps he should have transferred them away from Beiyuan Town earlier, but he didn't know that their life in Beiyuan Town was so hard before.

It's not like Yang Chengche and Yang Qinwu haven't written to him before, but they only reported good news and not bad news, and never mentioned how hard their life in Tieyuanwei was.

Wang Bin did say that he had been trapped in Tieyuanwei, but he just thought that Wang Bin was the deputy general, and even if he was in Tieyuanwei, he shouldn't suffer.

"What's the point of going back to Yangjia Village? Your cultivation has fallen a lot in these years. Since you don't want to be an official, then stay in the Marquis' Mansion and be my personal guard to make up for your cultivation first!"

"Qinwu is still young, and it won't be a big problem to become a congenital warrior if he works hard now."

"Chengche, you are a little older, but it's not that you don't have a chance to become a congenital warrior. Practice hard. As long as you can reach the ninth level of the acquired realm before the age of forty-five, you will have a chance to become a congenital warrior!"

Yang Zhengshan said excitedly.

Yang Qinwu is only thirty-four years old this year, not even forty years old, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Although Yang Chengche is already 41 years old, he has the eighth level of acquired cultivation. As long as he can reach the next level, he will have a chance to become an innate warrior.

The worst that can happen is that he will eat a few more three yellow plums. Yang Zhengshan can afford it.

Hearing that he can become an innate warrior, the dejected Yang Qinwu suddenly raised his head, "Is it really possible?"

"When did I lie to you!" Yang Zhengshan glared at him.

Yang Qinwu scratched his head, "I thought my life was over!"

Yang Zhengshan slapped him hard, "How old are you, kid? It's over? From today on, practice hard for me. If you dare to be lazy, I will beat you!"

"Uh, great uncle, I will practice hard!" Yang Qinwu smiled foolishly.

Yang Zhengshan put his arms around their shoulders, "That's right, practice well, don't ask for glory and wealth, just ask a real man to stand tall in the world!"

"Let's go, uncle will treat you to a drink!"

Yang Chengche and Yang Qinwu grinned. Although they had been frustrated over the years, they had never blamed Yang Zhengshan. If it weren't for Yang Zhengshan, they might just be villagers in Yangjia Village.

Seeing Yang Zhengshan again today, they once again felt Yang Zhengshan's closeness and love, which made them feel warm in their hearts.

For a moment, the originally gloomy world was full of colors again.

And Yang Zhengshan also wanted to compensate them. They were the first Yang family members to follow Yang Zhengshan. Yang Zhengshan had long regarded them as his nephews and nieces.

Other nephews and nieces have achieved something now, but the two of them have been left behind. Yang Zhengshan felt a little guilty.

…

On the official road north of Chongshan Pass.

The sound of horse hooves rang out, and a team of cavalrymen wearing leather armor and cloaks on their backs galloped from the north.

The leader was none other than Zhou Lan, and the cavalry behind Zhou Lan was Wang Yunqiao and her women's army.

Soon after Zhou Lan took over as the general of Chongshan Town, she brought Wang Yunqiao with her as a guard and personal attendant.

Over the years, Wang Yunqiao has trained thousands of female soldiers, but most of them only trained for a period of time and then went home to take care of their husbands and children. Only 300 female soldiers always followed her.

Of course, these 300 female soldiers are also married women, with husbands and children, but compared to other women, they can be a little more relaxed about their children, at least someone at home can help them take care of their children.

Zhou Lan still looks heroic. Although the years have left many traces on her face, she is still the capable General Zhou.

Just when they were two or three miles away from Chongshan Pass, a team of cavalry galloped towards them.

"General!" The cavalry who came over saw Zhou Lan and hurriedly stopped his horse and shouted.

Zhou Lan also stopped his horse, looked at them and asked, "What's wrong?"

The cavalry quickly dismounted and saluted in front of Zhou Lan. The leader was a man in his forties.

"Your Excellency, General, we are the guards around the Governor. Just now, the Governor was assassinated!" The man looked sad and said quickly in a low voice.

Zhou Lan was shocked, "What? Where did the assassin come from?"

The Governor of Chongshan Town is Pang Tang. In recent years, Pang Tang has been working diligently and tirelessly in Chongshan Town. In order to fulfill the big pie that Yang Zhengshan had drawn for him, he devoted himself to governing the North.

And he has made great achievements in Chongshan Town in recent years. The millions of disaster victims at that time have now settled down and worked in the North of Chongshan Town. The originally barren North has now become thousands of hectares of fertile fields.

Not only the North, the military households and civilians of the original Chongshan Town can now live and work in peace, and the business and horse politics of the entire Chongshan Town have developed greatly.

It can be said that Pang Tang is the biggest contributor to the prosperity of Chongshan Town today.

Yang Zhengshan only laid the foundation and made plans. Although Zhou Lan was in charge of the army of Chongshan Town, she was far inferior to the elderly Pang Tang in terms of administrative ability.

Now, Pang Tang is the backbone of Chongshan Town.
