Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

Ginger soup and pears were all eaten by Wang Xiujin before dinner.Probably because he ate fruit before dinner, and drank a large bowl of ginger soup, and the hot pot in the evening, Wang Xiujin was full without taking a few mouthfuls.Looking at the greedy meat but not being able to eat it, Wang Xiujin felt that there was nothing more tragic than this. He stepped back and sat on the side early. He didn't want to watch others eat it. It would be more cruel. In fact, he wanted to go back to the room and smell it The taste is also very cruel!After everyone finished dinner, Wang Xiujin rubbed his stomach, asking if he wanted the kitchen to prepare some snacks for him, he felt that he would definitely be hungry in the middle of the night.

Li Sushan chatted with Dr. Wang for a while after dinner, and then left.Wang Xiujin got up and wanted to send someone to the door, but was stopped by Li Sushan. Although he didn't cough when he was eating, he still saw that Wang Xiujin was not very energetic. "Get some rest early. If you don't feel well tomorrow morning, please call the doctor. Don't delay."

Wang Xiujin secretly rolled his eyes, he is not stupid, he is not feeling well, so why not call a doctor.But think about it, when he first started coughing, he didn't really care much about it. Based on the idea that it would be good for seven days to take medicine or not, he felt that it would be fine. If it wasn't for his mother's worry, his cough might be delayed when.Think about it, I don’t know when I heard a saying in my previous life, saying that getting cancer does not necessarily mean early death, but a cold can kill people if it is not treated in time. I don’t know if it is true or not.Moreover, wind-cold and colds in ancient times were somewhat different, so he should not treat minor illnesses as illnesses in the future.

After reflecting for a while, he looked up again, Li Sushan had already left, Wang Xiujin twitched his lips, rolled his eyes secretly, and was about to go back to the yard, but was stopped by his father.Lord Wang waved away the servants in the room, and let Wang Xiujin sit on the side of his arm, "Originally, your father should take your calligraphy, but after the imperial court left today, the emperor specially recruited me to the imperial study room, and mentioned that I should take the calligraphy for you." thing."

Wang Xiujin knew what his father was going to say without even thinking about it, it was nothing more than the emperor wanted to give him words. "Father agrees?" It is a great honor for the emperor to bestow the word, but it is completely unnecessary for him!He is a merchant, so it doesn't matter much to him whether he has a literati's writing or not.

"If you are an official in the court, your father will naturally refuse it. However, although you have an official position, you only earn money for the emperor." Mr. Wang didn't feel that this matter should be rejected, and even thought it could be called a good thing. If the emperor Not giving Wang Xiujin a name will make some people think carefully.The youngest son is not an official, so he doesn't know the twists and turns of the officialdom. As a father, Mr. Wang naturally has to help pave the way, so as not to be calculated by others when the youngest son doesn't know.

Wang Xiujin didn't say any more. He doesn't know as much as his father about some things, so it's better to obey. In fact, many of his ideas are from the previous life. This is wrong. What he thinks is right may not be right in this era. , so, it's better to be a good boy.

"I've spoken to the Li family. Li Sushan's yard has been renovated." Mrs. Wang took out a list from her wide sleeve, "Here's what you have to send before you pass the door. See if there is anything missing. After a few years, people will send the objects over first."

Today, I just heard about the marriage during the day, and now I listen to it again, but the mood is different. Wang Xiujin pressed the words to his lips, took the list and looked at it carefully, and it was all things he was used to, of course not what he used now. , but all new ones.Wang Xiujin's eyes were sour because of his mother's meticulousness, but he didn't want his mother to see it, so he could only bear it.Below the list is the servant who has to go through the door first, Wang Xiujin crossed out all the women, even Ruiwen wasn't going to take them with him.

Mrs. Wang was a little displeased, so she crossed out the female servant. How could Ruiwen not bring her there? Even if the servants of the Li family were not bad, they were not as loyal as the ones they were used to.Looking at his mother's expression, Wang Xiujin knew that his mother must be dissatisfied because of Ruiwen's crossing out.Wang Xiujin explained his plan, Ruiwen is a good person, he originally planned to let Ruiwen learn more from the old housekeeper, and take over the post of housekeeper later.Mrs. Wang knew that her son was thoughtful, but she still felt uncomfortable in her heart.Wang Xiujin could only coax his mother aside, and then said some other things to amuse his mother, so as to set the matter aside.

It's not that Wang Xiujin dislikes the old butler, but that the butler is really old, and even though he's in good shape, he's not as strong as a young man. The housekeeper arranged a yard, and he lived in the mansion for the elderly.

Returning to the yard from the front hall, Wang Xiujin left Ruiwen behind, and naturally wanted to ask Ruiwen if he had no intention of being a housekeeper, so he thought about whether to arrange another position, no matter what, Wang Xiujin was not prepared Take people there.The Li family and the Wang family have different ways of managing their servants, and he will not take over the affairs of the Li family's backyard when he enters the Li family's gate. Although he opens his mouth to ask for something, the Li family will agree, but if it can be avoided, it is better not to happen.

Ruiwen was panicked at first because the young master didn't plan to take him to Li's house. After hearing the young master's arrangement, Ruiwen hesitated for a while, but still insisted on following the young master to Li's house.Ruiwen knew that the young master was not trying to test him by saying this, but was sincerely thinking about his future. Because of this, he should follow the young master even more.Wait, young master, is this going to be a door-to-door son-in-law?But the young lady of the Li family is not yet of age.Rui Wen was a little confused. With his status as a young master, he was absolutely qualified to welcome the young lady of the Li family into the door, and he didn't need to be the son-in-law!Ruiwen, who still hasn't turned his mind away, is entangled in worries, but Ruiwen is even more determined to follow the young master but Li's family. How can it be so easy to be a door-to-door son-in-law? How difficult it is to mirror.

Wang Xiujin didn't know how many pictures Ruiwen had filled in his mind. He was moved by Ruiwen's wholehearted desire to follow him. When he recalled Ruiwen's frail body and how he rushed to protect the lord desperately, Wang Xiujin felt grateful every time he thought of it. At this moment, although Ruiwen didn't say why he followed, he also knew that Ruiwen was worried that he went to Li's house and didn't have a satisfactory servant.However, Wang Xiujin would not follow Rui Wen's ideas. "That's it. After the next year, I will explain to the housekeeper that you are ready."

"Master..." Rui Wen was impatient, seeing the expression on the young master's face, Rui Wen didn't dare to say too much, and retreated silently.

In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the year. This year, the palace held a palace banquet. Lord Wang and Wang Xiujin were both on the list to enter the palace, and Mrs. Wang also changed into the imperial Hanbok early on, preparing to enter the palace to greet the empress dowager.Wang Xiujin had no interest in palace banquets. If he hadn't been called out to enter the palace, he would have preferred to stay at home. Rather than being hypocritical with those civil servants who could speak frankly but insisted on swearing at words, it would be better to be in the palace. Read two more books at home.Moreover, the palace banquet was not enough to fill his stomach, and the dishes were even colder, and it was cold these few days. Eating outside in the cold weather made Wang Xiujin feel cold even thinking about it.

Putting on the court clothes and entering the palace with his father, Wang Xiujin was thinking all the way, should he go home after passing in front of the emperor?Wang Xiujin only dared to think about this idea, but he didn't dare to put it into action. The main reason was that he was too famous.No wonder people often say that people are afraid of being famous, but pigs are afraid of being strong.At this moment, it shows the disadvantages of being too famous. Those civil servants at the palace banquet may stare at him from time to time. If there is a chance for him to make pigtails, they will never let it go.

Before the palace banquet started, the emperor summoned all the generals. As for what they said, the door was closed and no one knew. The civil servants outside were a little nervous. Today, the more they don't listen to their words, it makes them feel more and more dangerous. If the emperor falls to the military generals, there will be no day for them to stand out in the future. "Master Wang, do you know what happened when the emperor summoned the military officer?"

"I don't know." Sir Wang said very calmly, he really didn't know, and even if he knew, he wouldn't tell these people.Mr. Wang answered simply, but how could he convince the person who asked, he felt that Mr. Wang must know something.I communicated with the colleagues around me with eye contact, and after a while another official came over, and asked around corners, but Mr. Wang still said the same thing, "I don't know."

There was nothing special about the emperor's meeting with the military generals. Instead, he took out the design drawing of the coastal defense that the fourth prince had shown him, and let the generals have a look. He didn't know what else needed to be added to the defensive wall.In other words, the emperor said that he was actually very satisfied with this blueprint. Instead of asking the generals to make moves, it is better to say that the emperor is showing off how capable his son is in disguise.

On the other side, Wang Xiujin has been sitting obediently beside his father, looking at the big and small civil servants in front of him from time to time, looking at the labels on their heads, Wang Xiujin can only use three words to describe it... hot eyes.All of them seem to be sanctimonious, but in fact, few of them are not marked with the word "evil".Some people are greedy for silver, and their claws are so long that they dare not even touch the official silver that has just been made by the court.Among these people, the one who made Wang Xiujin the most disgusting was a typical person like Chen Shimei, even more Chen Shimei than Chen Shimei.

Wang Xiujin shook his head slightly. The court's trial system needs to be more perfect. Every time an official is used, it is necessary to find out what kind of people the other party's ancestors are from the eighteenth generation, so as not to find out after the students who have passed the exam become officials. They are not "fit" to be officials.

Mr. Wang saw his son frowning for a while, then seemed to think of something good for a while, and smiled again on his face, so he couldn't help but want to send people away from him, but thinking of his son's temper, Mr. Wang didn't dare to let people leave With his sight, he can guarantee that if his son leaves one moment, he may cause trouble the next moment.
