Grandpa is not called Cuihua

"It's too late for me to meet Brother Chang. You must drink this cup. Brother, I will do it first as a respect."

A jar of pear blossoms was white, and the people at the dinner table were already very familiar. Liu Shiyong insisted on having a drink with Chang Hao because of his drunkenness.

Su Mo didn't drink much, but Li Huabai had a lot of stamina. At this time, he was also drunk, and his speech was much more casual than usual-"Hey, why are you toasting Chang Hao? You didn't know each other before. ..."

As the name suggests, Liu Shiyong is tall and tall, and has a calm personality. He is in his early twenties, and he is already a bit as sophisticated as his father, the servant of the household department.It's unbelievable that such a person can make friends with Zhang Qingyang.

"Hehe, don't look at this kid who often goes out drinking with us, but he is just like his father in his bones. I admire people like Chang Hao very much."

Among them, Zhang Qingyang drank the most, but he was also the most sober, and his speech was still very orderly.

Hearing what he said, several other people also began to wonder. Although Chang Hao is indeed a rare big businessman, even if he can't stand shoulder to shoulder with him, there are still many capable people in the entire dynasty. Why does this kid Liu Shiyong admire Chang Hao?

"Hehe, you, you don't know that there was a severe drought in Guangnan last year, and there was almost no harvest. Although the emperor ordered the release of grain, but there are treacherous ministers like King Jing, how many can actually be distributed to the people?" Speaking of this, Liu Shiyong was almost filled with righteous indignation, and he clasped his fists at Chang Hao again, "Brother Chang is high-minded, contributes money and effort, saves the people from the fire and water, does good but does not want others to know—"

Only later did he know that this was not the first time the Chang family had done such a thing. Ever since Chang Hao took over the Chang family business group, they had made such donations almost every year.It is said that businessmen value profit over righteousness, and some people think that there is too much money.

After hearing this, all the people present showed admiration for Chang Hao, and even Su Mo felt a little surprised.When Chang Hao lived in the bamboo building for a few days, everything was fine, and now the soft couch is still in the bamboo building!At that time, his demeanor was no different from that of an ordinary rich man.

"you flatter me."

Chang Hao accepted everyone's praise calmly, feeling a little ashamed in his heart. Most of what he did was for the reputation of the Chang family business group. Of course, he also understood the suffering of ordinary people.

"Speaking of which, King Jing hasn't lost much money in the past few years. In addition to those restaurants and money houses in the dark, it's like spending money to raise an army..."

As the chief bookkeeper of Taichang Temple, Zhang Jun was in charge of rites and music, so he hated King Jing's rebellious behavior.

"Actually, my father has collected a lot of evidence of King Jing's rebellion, but it's not enough to be trusted. Li Zecheng is a very cunning old thief."

Speaking of excitement, Liu Shiyong slapped the table to get up, and then sat down slumped. As for the ears on the partition wall, brothers Qin Cheng and Qin Yong were there, so there was no need to worry.

"Drinking and drinking, what are you doing talking about these spoilers? The sky is falling, and naturally there will be a tall person to support it, so don't worry about it."

Zhang Qingyang waved his hands impatiently, today is his birthday, if in previous years he had to go to Hualou to drink and listen to music all night, if it wasn't for Ye Li——

"How can you say that? Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of a country."

Ye Li drank a glass of wine proudly, stood up abruptly, finished speaking angrily, and sat down unsteadily again.He had a fair and handsome face, and his drink was flushed red.

"I'll just say it casually..."

Zhang Qingyang said resentfully, he didn't know why, he just couldn't do anything with this nerd.If it were someone else, he would have thought of a hundred ways to put him to death.

"Well, we can't let rebellious officials and thieves succeed..."

Su Mo burped a little and smiled authentically. In fact, since he came to this world, he didn't have a deep sense of substitution for the ruler here, let alone loyalty to the emperor.In other words, it doesn't matter who becomes emperor.

Now seeing this group of people filled with righteous indignation, I don't feel any empathy. I just think that if King Jing succeeds in rebelling, Li Wei will succeed him after he dies. Thinking of this makes me feel uncomfortable, so I still have to stop them.

"Well, they can't be allowed to succeed."

Chang Hao touched the head that was getting closer, followed his words and echoed, not forgetting to peel the shrimp and stuff it into Su Mo's mouth.

Halfway through drinking the wine, the atmosphere was getting hot, Zhang Jun and Liu Shiyong looked at each other, the two heyed twice, and smiled flatteringly at Chang Hao.

"Brother Chang, you must be aware that the Frost and Cold Festival is hosted by the Taichang Temple every year. This year is an eventful year, and the Taichang Temple is also unable to handle it, so I decided to find a large businessman from the people to organize it. This task is natural. The Qin family must belong."

"Well, the household department is also preparing for the war, and the Frost and Cold Festival won't be able to spend much money. I hope Brother Chang can help with it."

After Zhang Jun finished speaking, Liu Shiyong also continued, originally he was not asked to handle this matter, but his father had been worried about it for a few nights, so he, as a son, naturally had to share some of it.

No, I was dozing off when someone brought me a pillow.

"Co-author, your flattery just now was all to lure Chang Hao into the trap!"

Before the master said anything, Su Mo had already narrowed his eyes. He couldn't let these two guys put their minds on Chang Hao.Just from what Zhang Jun and Liu Shiyong said, he knew that it would cost a lot of money to hold such a Frost and Cold Festival.

"No, no, I just spoke from the bottom of my heart!"

Liu Shiyong was in a hurry, he was half sober from the wine, he had already seen that Su Mo, the foster brother, held a lot of weight in Chang Hao's heart.If Su Mo disagrees with this, the matter will most likely end up being a mess.

"Sharing the emperor's worries is our duty. It is a great honor for the Chang family to be able to organize the Frost and Cold Festival together with Taichang Temple."

Chang Hao said with a smile, the Chang family is an imperial merchant, and has inextricable ties with the royal family. At this critical juncture, it is natural to "step forward". Zhang Jun's words today may also have the emperor's meaning in it, but In order to take into account the face of the royal family, I did not speak directly.

Furthermore, in the eyes of the common people, the royal family is the guardian of the Winter God, and being able to host the Frost and Cold Festival together with Taichang Temple, since then, the Changjia Merchant Group has a different meaning in the eyes of the common people.Such an impact may not be visible now, but they will know how great this is in the future!

"Since that's the case, I'd like to respect Brother Chang again."

Liu Shiyong said gratefully, he didn't have so many twists and turns in his heart, he just felt that Chang Hao had suffered a disadvantage in this matter, and he felt a little sorry.

Seeing that Chang Hao had agreed, Su Mo didn't say much. He was also in a daze just now, so he felt wronged for this person.Even if Chang Hao is not a profiteer, he is not a master who lets people take advantage of him for nothing.

After all, hosting the Frost and Cold Festival is not a trivial matter. Chang Hao still needs to explain to the elders of the same clan, and listen to their opinions on how to do it.

"Brother, you are finally willing to come back..."

During dinner, it was rare to see Chang Hao at the Chang family's dining table. Chang Xu couldn't help complaining that he was dizzy looking at the account books all day long, but the elder brother was fine. I heard that he went to Wuweixuan for a drink yesterday.

"Yes, so I still have a son! You really have a daughter-in-law, ah no, you have a younger brother and forget your mother..."

Mother Chang couldn't help joking, although she said so, she was very happy in her heart.The eldest son looked the same as before, with the same calm face, but it seemed that something heavy had been removed from his body, and he felt relaxed.

"Hehe, I'm still a brother-in-law—"

Chang Xu couldn't help but said sourly, his real younger brother is not as good as the brother-in-law who his elder brother recognized halfway.

"Don't talk when you eat, don't talk when you sleep."

Chang's father coughed and said majesticly as the head of the family, but it was still the same as usual, with no effect.

Halfway through eating, Chang's mother finally couldn't hold back anymore. After the girl from the Li family eloped with someone, she didn't dare to mention it these days, for fear that her son would be sad, but now it seems that it has no effect?

"Son, we met people who were not nice before, and mother will definitely find you a better one."

After finishing speaking, he secretly kicked Father Chang with his foot under the table, motioning him to say something.

"Ahem, children and grandchildren have their own blessings."

Father Chang often said that the eldest son has always had his own ideas since he was a child, but his daughter-in-law doesn't know what happened this time, doesn't he know that the daughter of Li Shilang's family was taken away by the son himself.That being the case, even if you choose another one, it may not be possible.

"Even if I don't marry a wife in my life, wouldn't there still be Chang Xu?"

Chang Hao said such a sentence out of the blue, and it was rare that he picked up a chopsticks of fried meat with celery for his younger brother.

"Cough-cough--" Chang's mother heard this, her expression was only panic, she couldn't think about what her son was doing, she guessed it was all caused by Li Xiangru, and it was all due to her mother's clumsy eyesight, she couldn't help but wonder again. Blaming myself, "It's all my mother's fault..."

"Chang Hao, pay attention to your manner of speaking."

When Chang's father saw that his daughter-in-law was about to cry, he quit immediately. He didn't care about the bastards, but there was one thing, he couldn't make his daughter-in-law unhappy.

Chang Hao just now was nothing more than a test, and it was also a buffer for his parents. Compared with not marrying for life, anyone would choose the latter.Seeing that the old man had spoken, he said, "Don't worry, I didn't say no to marrying."

Only then did Chang's mother smile, but her son said again - "I will decide who I marry in the future."

The daughter-in-law still wants to marry, but it's a male daughter-in-law...

"All right, as long as you are willing to marry, you can marry anyone."

After the succession of the daughter of the Li family, Chang's mother didn't want to make her own opinions any more, after all, she wanted her son to see her right.

"As long as you know what you want."

Chang's father took a sip of the tea, and said plainly, he was no more brief than Chang's mother thought, the eldest son is a little fox, and what he said today must have other intentions.But still the same sentence, children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and everything depends on their own good fortune.

Sigh, seeing that my son is so unusual today, I'm afraid my daughter-in-law will inevitably be sad...

"Yes."

Jiang is still old and spicy, Chang Hao's heart shuddered, and he replied seriously.

He had already figured out what he wanted, and now he just waited for Su Mo to figure it out.
