The younger brother of the Red Chamber is a fighter
Chapter 20 [Catching Insects]
Tu Lingguang tapped lightly, keeping his secrets secret.
Lin Mingyu didn't care too much, and just said right now: "I just have this temper. People respect me a foot, and I respect others. If you bully me, Daoshan Youguo can't bear it." He said relaxedly: "With He, the Xue family, came to teach me a lesson, treating me like a soft persimmon to learn from!"
Tu Lingguang shook his head: "The ancestor of the Xue family is still quite talented, otherwise he would not be able to receive the royal errand. When you didn't meet him, you still had some popularity in the court. Now that the children are in decline, it is his family In-laws can only bluff people."
Lin Mingyu didn't want to mention these things, so he just laughed and said: "Brother Tu, I'm here today to ask you for something."
Tu Lingguang said, "Please? That's fine, just say it."
Lin Mingyu handed the tea to him, and looked over with two round black eyes with a smile on his face: "Brother Tu, didn't you say last time that you will get a military post in the Coastal Defense Department at the beginning of spring? Is this a safe thing?"
Tu Lingguang couldn't help but patted his head, and said with a smile: "Is there any truth to this matter? The imperial decree is on the desk of the official department. What's the matter with you, but you want to go out with me to see it?"
Lin Mingyu said: "I really think so, I'm afraid my father won't let it go. Brother Tu, I want to get some seafood to sell, can you help me with the paperwork?"
Tu Lingguang didn't answer right away, but after pondering for a moment, he said, "You want to get a share of the sea trade route? Do you know who owns the sea trade route now?"
Lin Mingyu hurriedly said: "I have inquired that the sea trade route has always been lucrative and is controlled by aristocratic families, and ordinary merchants can't touch it at all. I have two shops at hand, and I am thinking about making a living with sea goods. How much can I get?" It’s convenient to do things in Kyoto. I don’t want to share a foothold, and I’m satisfied if I can find a leak.”
Tu Lingguang looked at him silently, Lin Mingyu's heart couldn't help but pounding, a little uneasy.
"Haha..." Tu Lingguang laughed suddenly, the sharp expression on his face disappeared, and the gentleness was like a spring breeze.
"Mingyu, it's good that you have this ambition. As an older brother, I have to fulfill you no matter what." Tu Lingguang stood up and patted him on the shoulder: "Relax, I'll tell you to go down, and you just go to prepare the pavement. "
Lin Mingyu felt a stone in her heart fall to the ground, and couldn't help but relax: "Thank you, big brother, I'll treat you today, and go to Deyilou for a drink!"
Tu Lingguang put his arms around his shoulders, and joked, "You're only a little older, and you can drink without saying a word, so you won't be afraid that your father will come back and beat you up!"
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, isn't there big brother here, everything has to be settled!"
Lin Mingyu's flattery made Tu Lingguang feel very comfortable.Pulling the tender flesh on his little face, Tu Lingguang happily followed him.
Full of wine and food, Tu Lingguang didn't let him go, let him sit in his carriage, and walked out of the city gate slowly.
"It's so itchy, brother, don't touch it." Hu's carriage was low-key on the outside and luxurious on the inside, with a soft couch made of high-quality fur and a low table next to it.Tu Lingguang sat on one side of the couch, laying on Lin Mingyu's lap with his arms around him, and ordered the two maids to boil water and make tea.
He held a book in his left hand, and put his right hand on Lin Mingyu's shoulder, rubbing against the fine white skin of his neck.
"I don't know how you have such fine skin and tender flesh." Tu Lingguang averted his eyes, glanced at his neck, and admired.
Lin Mingyu held her hand in front of her eyes, her ten fingers were like spring onions, slender and delicate, but not as soft and boneless as a woman's.He looked at it for a while, and felt that his skin was really good, so he echoed, "Maybe the people in the south of the Yangtze River are nourished by the water and soil. Compared with the northerners, most of the southerners are more handsome. Brother, I will return to Yangzhou in a short time. Will you come with me?"
Tu Lingguang turned his gaze back to the book again, and said, "I'm not going. I've lived outside for a few months, and it's time to go back to my residence. My father and king are in a hurry these days. If I hide again, he will come to the door with a whip." smoke."
Lin Mingyu clicked his tongue: "Prince Changping has such a fierce and brave temper, it's really the opposite of elder brother you."
Tu Lingguang laughed lowly: "You haven't seen my brother Wang, and you're still surprised. ——Okay, sleep quietly for a while, there is still an hour to go."
Tu Lingguang only said that he would take him to Zhuangzi to play, and Lin Mingyu didn't ask any more questions.
After sleeping in a daze for a while, Tu Lingguang whispered in his ear: "Mingyu, we're here."
Lin Mingyu got up from his lap, the butler outside heard the movement and came up to draw the curtain.When Lin Mingyu and Tu Lingguang got out of the car, they could see an expansive green field, one side was a hillside with layers upon layers, and a piece of high and low courtyard walls were located under the hillside.
"What a huge farm! Is this all the property of the palace?"
Tu Lingguang took his hand and said as he walked, "It was left to me by my mother and concubine. Aren't you going back to Yangzhou? There is nothing else in my village. There is a big forest outside. I will take you to ride a horse." , by the way, get some to roast in the wild at night.”
Chuang Tzu was well cultivated everywhere, Lin Mingyu looked at it with great novelty.His family also has a farm in the capital, although he has not seen it, but he knows that it is incomparable with Tu Lingguang's Zhuangzi.
As soon as Tu Lingguang came, four housekeepers, big and small, came to welcome him.Tu Lingguang didn't say anything else, first he listened to the manager's reply, while opening the account book, his expression was so serious that Lin Mingyu had never seen it before.
"Mingyu, this matter of listening to accounts is very cumbersome. If you can't sit still, go play in the backyard for a while. I'll have someone prepare a horse for you." Tu Lingguang listened for a while, his eyes rolled and fell on Lin Mingyu .
Lin Mingyu was thinking about seeing how other people manage Zhuangzi, and if he had this opportunity, he would love to listen. "I'm fine, brother, you are busy with your work."
Seeing that he was willing to listen, Tu Lingguang ignored him.
"——All the grain seeds of this season have been handed out. This year's harvest is good, and the rent is 7000 cents. When the grain is harvested, there should be 3000 taels of silver. The oil, fruits and other things produced in the village are placed in the shop. Buy, this month’s account book records, there are also [-] taels. Last time when the prince came to hunt, he said that the land in the back mountain was also enclosed, which was about a thousand mu. We were thinking about building a new village on the other side. Send someone to take care of it. Do you think there is anything to order?" A manager bowed back.
Tu Lingguang flipped through the account book quickly, and after a while, he said: "Okay, let's go on like this. When the new grain is harvested, sell the stored grain in the warehouse, and I will be vigilant. The grain in the warehouse cannot be sold anyway. Something went wrong."
The four stewards nodded in unison: "Don't worry, we will watch."
Tu Lingguang waved his hand, sent people away, and said to Lin Mingyu, "What a weird thing to do!"
Lin Mingyu grinned: "Brother, you can still take care of the farm, so you can earn money like this!"
Tu Lingguang said: "What is this? My eldest brother loves the art of war. I prefer these, and each has its own strengths. But this is not the root of a man's life. He can understand and count. It's enough not to be deceived by others. Don't worry about it." This small amount of money will lose the ambition to study for the exam. Your cousin Lin Rui will take the exam next year, right?"
Lin Mingyu didn't feel embarrassed after being taught a lesson, she still smiled and said, "Yes, I'm working hard at home every day."
"I think he is a character, you should learn more from him." Tu Lingguang pinched his face and led him to the backyard.
A servant brought two horses over, one with slender limbs, tall and vigorous, with extraordinary appearance;
Tu Lingguang said: "This horse is given to you. Don't underestimate it. It was born from my horse and an excellent foal. Now you look small, but when you grow up, you will know its benefits. You give it Give it a name."
Lin Mingyu saw that the red hair on its forehead was like a flame, and blurted out: "Let's call her Huoyun." This is a young mare.Tu Lingguang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take you for a few laps."
Huoyun is small in stature, but has a big temper.Lin Mingyu happened to have a few years of horse training experience, so he subdued it.Tu Lingguang prepared a pair of bows and arrows for him, and the two of them entered the forest with their guards.
The mountain wind was strong, and Lin Mingyu was riding a fire cloud to chase his prey like lightning. He couldn't shoot accurately, and every time he shot the arrow, he would only scare the prey away.
Feeling competitive, Lin Mingyu rode his horse and galloped into the depths of the forest, while Tu Lingguang laughed out loud from far behind.Lin Mingyu held his breath, stretched his bow and set an arrow, and shot at a rabbit.
"I've won!" Lin Mingyu exclaimed in a low voice, and Lin Mingyu smiled happily.
"Haha, I've hit it again!" A sudden laugh came, Lin Mingyu looked up displeasedly, and was meeting the young man who came running to flatter his horse.
"Lin Mingyu!" Xue Pan pulled the horse back, his pupils constricted for an instant, like a falcon locking its prey, once it touches it, it cannot be torn apart.
Lin Mingyu immediately felt disappointed: "Master Xue, please make room for me, the prey is mine."
Xue Pan looked down at the rabbit on the ground, a white feathered arrow stuck in its neck, then looked at Lin Mingyu, and sure enough, he saw white feathers protruding from his quiver.However, my own arrows...
"Obviously it's mine, why, brother Ming took a fancy to this rabbit?"
For some reason, Lin Mingyu felt that when his name came out of his mouth, he felt a little out of breath, and it made his ears bother. "Stop talking nonsense, the arrows on the rabbit are the same as mine, don't play tricks on me! Go away!"
Xue Pan ignored him, his eyebrows twitched a few times, and he tried to hold back the retorting words.
Lin Mingyu's heart is really angry this time, this moldy god is simply haunted!He didn't say much, Huoyun was dexterous, and with a slight mention, he jumped to the side of the rabbit in accordance with his wishes.Lin Mingyu leaned forward and dismounted, grabbed the rabbit and retreated.
Finally, Xue Pan couldn't help but grab his wrist holding the rabbit.
With a small wrist, Xue Pan was startled, and quickly relaxed his grip.
Lin Mingyu turned her head, her eyes swept over her wrist, and fixed on Xue Pan's heart: "Release!"
The voice was not loud, but it was such a contemptuous tone that made Xue Pan furious.He simply retracted his arms in front of him, and Lin Mingyu was almost pulled onto his horse.With half of her body hanging in the air, Lin Mingyu subconsciously let go of the rabbit's hand, and put her palm on Xue Pan's chest.
"What are you so proud of? Lin Mingyu, you are just the son of a patrol official. Without you, you are just a baby. What do you think you are doing?" Xue Pan gritted his teeth. Just in front of him, I always feel that I am inexplicably inferior, and I can't get rid of the boredom in my heart.
Lin Mingyu was in a hurry, he didn't expect Xue Pan to be so rude when he came up: "Why are you crazy! It's just a rabbit, is there anything in this forest? You have to fight me, who is playing tricks!"
"Xue Pan, let me go!"
"Don't let it go!"
Without further ado, Lin Mingyu bit him hard with his upper mouth. Xue Pan felt the pain, and immediately let go of his grip.Lin Mingyu took the opportunity to sit back on the horse, straightened her back, and looked at him coldly.
"This rabbit is dirty, I don't want it anymore. Don't let me see you next time, otherwise, I will see you once and beat you once." Lin Mingyu touched his wrist, compared the height and strength of the two, and swore in his heart, Hui definitely brought enough people out, so he let out this harsh tone!
How could Xue Pan let him go like this, he lifted the rein of the horse and stood in front of him again.
"Mingyu!" Tu Lingguang finally caught up and frowned when he saw this scene: "Who are you? Are you guilty of trespassing on the villa?"
Seeing Tu Lingguang, Lin Mingyu hurriedly rode over, "Brother." He whispered over and told Xue Pan's identity.Add a sentence at the end: "This kid is too arrogant, let's arrest him!"
At this moment, someone was chasing after Xue Pan, who saw Tu Lingguang before speaking, both of them were taken aback for a moment.
Lin Mingyu didn't care too much, and just said right now: "I just have this temper. People respect me a foot, and I respect others. If you bully me, Daoshan Youguo can't bear it." He said relaxedly: "With He, the Xue family, came to teach me a lesson, treating me like a soft persimmon to learn from!"
