Chapter 2 The outside world
It is said that there is a Daliang Kingdom outside the Daughter Kingdom. It is a provincial capital called Lianghe far away from the capital Shengjing. There is a Yunjiabao there. He is the richest man in Lianghe. His family's business involves all kinds of things. In the local area
Almost anything I buy has some connection with his family.
His family's business could have been bigger and opened more shops. What's strange is that his family stopped at Lianghe and didn't develop all over the country. What's even more strange is that his family never does business with the royal family.
In terms of business, the officials had approached them several times before to pay tribute to the palace, but they were refused for various reasons. His family also had an ironclad family rule that the heirs of the Yun family were not allowed to practice martial arts or serve as officials.
The head of Yunjia Fort is a woman named Du Ruo. This woman lost her husband in her early years and came to Lianghe with her children to start a business from scratch. She founded the huge Yunjia Fort.
Although this woman is already octogenarian, her legendary business experience is something that everyone in Lianghe can talk about after dinner.
Kneeling in the Yun Family Ancestral Hall late at night was a shaky and sleepy young man, about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was kneeling, it did not affect his already tall figure at all. At this moment, he had already
He was so sleepy that he closed his eyes and frowned slightly, showing a hint of childishness. Even though he closed his eyes, his handsome face could not be reduced. He was wearing a monotonous white plain clothes and a black lotus belt.
,? There is also a piece of carved lotus sapphire on his waist. His body that was swinging around finally lost its fulcrum and fell to one side with a clang. This excitement drove away all his sleepiness.
, he slowly got up and moved his kneeling position. The numbness in his legs suddenly surged up, making him frown. He secretly glanced around and found no one to find a comfortable position to sit down.
When I got up, I kept mumbling: "I really don't understand why grandma didn't let me practice martial arts. This time I peeked at the military manual and asked me to kneel in the ancestral hall."
There were several sparsely lit tablets in the ancestral hall. The strange thing was that there were no names on them. The young man sat cross-legged and looked at the tablets. He was stunned. In fact, when he was very young, he asked his grandma why the tablets were on them.
Why is there no name on the tablet, grandma? Tell him that the name has been left in the heart and is engraved in the heart after the person has passed away. Carving the tablet again is equivalent to feeling sad all over again. So I did not carve the name on the tablet again.
"Grandpa, although I don't know that the tablet is yours, but I want to chat with you. You said grandma didn't let me practice martial arts and watch soldiers. Why on earth? Hmm?...? Did you say it was because of the previous
Who have the Yun family offended when they were officials? Grandma was afraid of causing trouble. So she didn’t let the Yun family become officials?" The young man sitting cross-legged had many questions in his mind. He asked the silent memorial tablet as the breeze blew by.
Still? Indifferent.
He seemed to have thought of something again and asked to the tablet: "Grandpa, let me ask you another question, don't be angry!" He leaned forward slightly and said, "Grandpa.
Was it because when you were an official when you were young, you made your grandma unhappy by not coming home all the time? Then after you passed away, grandma made this rule out of anger??" The ancestral hall was still quiet without any movement.
The young man couldn't help but sigh. There was still no one to solve the doubts in his heart.
"Young Master Yunhua!" When he heard someone calling him from behind, he turned around and saw an old man with mottled hair.
"Grandpa Changshan?" "Master Yunhua, please go back to your house to sleep late at night, don't get cold." The old man bent down to help the young man up, and looked at the young man with loving eyes. Yunhua is Yunhua.
The young master of the family, Yun Feiyang, the master of the Yun family, married late and only had a son when he was nearly half a century old. Everyone in the Yun family loved this single man very much, and the mistress of the Yun family, Mrs. Du, doted on this grandson even more.
As long as Yunhua wants anything, the old lady will satisfy him, but she will not get involved in anything related to the official family. But this young master has been obsessed with martial arts since he was a child, and he has always wanted to go to Beijing to participate in martial arts.
He was asked to serve the country as an official in the court. Because his grandmother had done this since he was a child, she punished him by kneeling in the ancestral hall.
Chang Shan is the old housekeeper of the Yun family. He is unmarried and has no heirs, so he treats Yunhua as his own grandson. "Grandma is not angry with me?"
"The old lady was angry for only a moment, but she loves you more than anyone else in her heart."
"I know grandma loves me, and everything goes well with me, but why aren't I allowed to practice martial arts? Why can Grandpa Changshan's family only practice martial arts if you are the only one who can practice martial arts, but others can't?"
"Because my surname is not Yun, so..." Chang Shan said a little embarrassed. Yunhua then said: "So you are different from me, I am a servant and you are the master, these
I have heard these words countless times,
"My grandma, father and mother never regard Grandpa Changshan as a human being. Is it just because my surname is Yun? What have the Yun family done to make grandma so disgusted with martial arts? Grandpa Changshan, do you know the reason??"
"Old servant, you don't know!?" Chang Shan said.
"Aren't you curious? You haven't asked grandma?" Yunhua asked.
"The old lady has her own reasons for doing this. If you don't tell me, I won't ask." Chang Shan said, "His life and life were given by the old lady. Even his name was given by the old lady."
Teach him how to read and write, take him in without caring about his identity, and believe everything she says.
Yunhua, who didn't ask why he came, thought that he would have to think of a way to get him when his grandma was happy that day and in a better mood. Grandma accepted that he wanted to practice martial arts to serve the country's ideals. He was afraid of hiding around all day long.
Being discovered was not an option. He had to tell his true thoughts to his grandma, maybe his grandma would understand him. The next day, Yunhua got up early and went out. Amber, who was cleaning the yard, felt that
It was a bit novel. When he saw his young master getting up, he put down what he was doing and went to fetch him water. After Yun Hua washed up neatly, he came to the hall and sat down at the dining table in a polite manner. He heard footsteps
Yunhua, who was in front of the table, turned sideways and looked outside the door. He saw a couple walking towards the room. The man was probably middle-aged. There was a calm and inviolable look between his brows, and all the precipitation of his years was reflected on his face.
Above. His wife has a kind face and kind eyes. Although there are fine lines at the corners of her eyes, you will unconsciously be distracted by the corners of her mouth that are always raised.
"Dad, morning, mother!" Yunhua greeted with a smile.
"?Yo!? You got up so early today? I didn't punish you yesterday in vain!?" Father Yun mocked.
"Hua'er, don't make grandma angry again today. Grandma is old and can't withstand such joy and anger." Yun Mu said softly, looking at Yun Hua lovingly.
"Mother, I understand." Yunhua claimed obediently. After a while, a delicate-looking maid came to the house supporting an elegant old lady.
"Grandma!" Yunhua quickly stood up and trotted to the old man's side. Yingqin took the maid's hand and supported the old man. The old man shook off Yunhua's hand in anger, and walked towards him tremblingly.
In the room, the maid hurriedly stepped forward to support Yunhua at the dinner table. She was very attentive in every possible way. She shouted to her grandma one after another and kept picking up food for her. She kept saying, "until he
