Chapter 53 The eldest brother is like a father
Chapter 53: The elder brother is like a father
"What did you say? What did the tenant call the king?" Before Zhang Qian could make a decision, Ren Quan sat up suddenly, questioning anxiously regardless of the dizziness.
"Wang Mao Bo, when the housekeeper Chuntian gave him land, he reported it in the account book." Zhang Gui was confused when asked and hesitated and explained in a low voice.
"It's him!" Ren Quan raised his hand to cover his forehead and softly hung his head to his chest. "He has actually fallen to the point of renting land. No wonder I felt familiar when I heard the golden hammer today. It should be hit. Butler Cui was deaf in his ears and didn't know who Wang Mao Bo was. He even asked him to be a tenant for his family. I was not wronged at all for this hammer!"
"Butler Ren, what's wrong with you, Ren. Is that tenant named Wang Maobo very good? " Zhang Qian's reaction was already fast enough, but he finally rushed to the front until he finished speaking and held Ren Quan's body, "You can't remember it wrong, right? Lying down quickly, lying down quickly, don't worry about this matter! Don't worry, I have my own sense. If you are your acquaintance, I can let them go for your sake!"
"It's bad, Manager Ren was beaten to death!" Zhang Gui finally realized suddenly, and his eyes looked at Ren Quan were full of sympathy.
Although the Ren family is not a wealthy family, it is also a well-known wealthy family in Chang'an. As the confidant general of the young man Ren Cong, Ren Quan was still a free person with a household registration in the government, and his status and future were far stronger than ordinary people. Not to mention that ordinary servants had to look up to their faces when they saw him. Even if the housekeeper Cui, who was the one who was the one who said the same thing in the village, had to say hello from a distance before Zhuangzi changed his surname to Zhang.
Manager Ren Da, who has such a "high status", was actually hit by a hammer from the tenant's children. Not only did he not want to take revenge, he also felt that he should be beaten. Why was he not beaten to be foolish?
It is rumored that on the way to the Western Regions, there was a slave trader who specialized in taking pictures of flowers. When he saw a lonely traveler, he hit the back of the head. When the traveler recovered from his injuries, he would become stupid and stupid. No matter where he was sold as a slave, he would not remember who he was and would no longer think about escaping.
"Master, I'm fine!" In Zhang Gui's sympathetic gaze, Ren Quan struggled to bow to Zhang Qian, "I am not familiar with this Wang Mao Bo, but I have heard about the two brothers before. His father was from Goguryeo, and he was a guerrilla general in the Tang Dynasty. He was actually appointed as the commander of Guoyi, and was good at using Jin Hammer. But he died a long time ago. He left five hundred acres of land for the two brothers, a dispersed position, and a small village..."
Because of dizziness, Ren Quan spoke very slowly and occasionally became confused. But the basic logic was still clear. So, after listening to a few words, Zhang Qian finally figured out the reason why he said before that he would not be unfair to eat a hammer tonight.
It turned out that Wang Maobo and the uninvited guest who was tied to a tree at this moment were brothers. Their father was from Goguryeo. Because of his bravery in fighting, he was registered as a Tang Dynasty commander, and he was appointed as the commander of Guoyi, and his dismissed position as a guerrilla general, which was considered proud. However, in a frontier battle sixteen or seventeen years ago, the commander of Wang unfortunately died for his country. (The dismissed position is equivalent to a military rank.)
At that time, Empress Wu was in power, and the court issued an order to treat the children of martyrs well. Therefore, the government specially comforted the Wang brothers and gave Wang Maobo a medal as a cavalry lieutenant. Their father also left behind a farm with 500 acres of fertile land for the two brothers. (Note 2: The honorary position is an indicator of official promotion. Ce Xun twelve transfers, which is what he refers to.)
If both brothers work hard and become progressive, even if they don’t become officials in their lives, they can be a little landlord for the rest of their lives. Unfortunately, when General Wang passed away, the second son of the Wang family was only six years old. Wang Bo, the eldest son of the Wang family, was both brother and father, and he was inevitably in a hurry.
As a result, as he grew up, Wang Maozhong, the second son of the Wang family, grew up to be a famous prodigal son, who was nicknamed Wang Daqiu. Not only did he spend money like money, he also liked to travel with other playboys and cause trouble everywhere.
It is easy to cause trouble in Chang'an City. When Wang Maozhong was seventeen years old, these playboys finally broke the sky. While hunting and roasting pork in the wild, a fire burned the willow trees in Weiyang Palace. (Weiyang Palace was also a royal garden in the Tang Dynasty)
Wu Zetian was already old and was at the time of his worst suspicion. In a furious manner, he immediately sent an imperial guard to get people. As a result, a group of playboys were quickly arrested and all of them were beheaded by Qiuhou.
Seeing that his younger brother was underage and was about to be in a different position, Wang Mao Bo was anxious and found his father's superiors and colleagues to help him. He took care of him at all costs. He risked his life to beat the Dengwen drum in Chang'an City and told Yousi that he had made a statement about his father's achievements that year. He finally let the court open his eyes and turned the death penalty of Wang Maozhong and several other accomplices into tattoos on his face and sold him into slavery.
"I was the one who I heard of at that time. My friends around me were all moved and said that the so-called elder brother is like a father, but that's just like that." After finishing the whole story with his forehead, Ren Quan continued to sigh, "But unexpectedly, in order to save his younger brother, Wang Maobo even gave up Xi Yin's meritorious position. He didn't expect that the Wang family was so destructive that Wang Maobo actually had to rely on tenant fields to plant it in order to support his family! But the Cui family was ignorant, and he had never heard of Wang Maozhong's name, and he even made a fool of himself to come and get a debt!"
"What elder brother is like a father? He has taken care of his younger brother like this. Have you ever thought about his own wife and children? As for Butler Cui, he was not anyone before, so he begged for him for mercy?" Zhang Qian couldn't understand Wang Mao Bo's sacrifice and muttered heartlessly in his stomach.
If this matter is placed in the 21st century and the gender is changed, Wang Maobo will definitely be called Voldemort online. As for the reason why he chose to do this, and who should a normal person be blamed for being unable to stand independent in society, the person who scolded the street never thought about it.
However, since Zhang Qian came to the Tang Dynasty, he could not seem too alternative. So he waved his hand and ordered Zhang Gui to bring Wang Maobo's family in. Then he stood up and prepared to change his clothes and go out to complete the work tonight.
"The boss, there are two main reasons why I am not wronged after taking a hammer!" Ren Quan was wholeheartedly thinking about Zhuangzi. When Zhang Gui's figure left the door, he immediately struggled to pull Zhang Qian's robe and lowered his voice and added, "First, Butler Cui shouldn't have lent the land to Wang Maozhong. Since he had given it, he shouldn't have come to the door to force him to pay debts. Although the Wang family was defeated, Wang Guerrilla always had some superiors and colleagues who were not dead. Butler Cui wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, but he really found the wrong person. Second, Wang Mao Bo is a man with affection and righteousness. If he had another wealthy family, his younger brother was suddenly captured by the government and was about to be chopped up. He was not involved in himself, so he might not be happy. Even if he was rescued, he would at most feel a story and would never be as he did at any cost."
"Well, he is indeed very righteous to his brother!" Zhang Qian didn't understand Ren Quan's meaning very much, just kept saying it perfunctorily.
"This Wang Maozhong, since he is a slave of a wealthy family, looks very respected by his master, you must not kill him." Ren Quan was so smashed that he didn't see Zhang Qian's face. He just continued to propose solemnly, "If you let him go, you are afraid that he will come to cause trouble endlessly. In the opinion of his subordinates, the only thing this person cares about is probably his brother. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been killed by you just now than to implicate his brother's family. Therefore, his subordinates suggest that you, you might as well sell Wang Maobo a favor, and then pull Wang Maobo into the mansion to be a martial artist in the house or guardian of the hospital. In this way, Wang Maobo is grateful that you let his brother go, and he will do his best to do things. And Wang Maozhong is afraid of you to deal with his brother, and of course he dare not provoke you again. In addition..."
Fearing that Zhang Qian was impatient to interrupt or refuse, he changed his breath, and he couldn't wait to add, "The boss came for the first time and was short of connections. Although Wang Mao Bo was so down and out that he was able to make a living for others, his father's connections were there, but he was a proud man in the past and could not bear to ask others for help. You have decided to exempt him from his famine. If you give him another chance to support himself, over time, he will naturally be able to interact with his father's old friends. At that time, those people will take care of you when you see you taking care of Wang Mao Bo and Wang Mao Zhong, even if you don't miss your favor, at least you will not treat you as a passerby."
"This..." Unexpectedly, Ren Quan thought so long, Zhang Qian nodded hesitantly, "Well, I'll follow you. But I have to see what kind of person Wang Mao Bo is..."
Before he could finish a sentence, a sharp woman cried and scolded in the yard, "Wang Er, you kill a thousand swordsman. What did our family owe you in the last life? They were all harmed like this, you are not finished yet? Last night, thinking about the relationship between the two brothers who had not seen each other for many years, I just let you in the house. Turning back, you caused such a big disaster again! Your brother was exhausted and supported this family. Your nephew got up to 5 o'clock and went to study in the middle of the night just to revive the family. How good is it, you lost your family once that year, which made your brother even give others a job. It's not enough? You have to come back and harm us again? God, open your eyes! Even if our family owes many kill a thousand swordsman, it should have been paid off."
"Okay, um, this is the owner's house, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um
The woman's crying and scolding became even more terrifying, "If he wants face, he shouldn't have come back to find you. And he shouldn't have come back to cause trouble on the first day after he came back. Wang Er, look, see how your brother is sick? Do you have a conscience? Your conscience was eaten by a dog." First update. Wang Maozhong is not Wang Zhongsi, Wang Zhongsi is about the same age as Li Bai, and he is still wearing open-crotch pants in the book at this time. Wang Maozhong, don't say it, keep it a secret, everyone can ask if you have no conscience. Please recommend, collect, and support. The drunkard thanks
