Datang Library

Bai Fan originally hated his aunt scolding his father, but when he saw that his seventh uncle wanted to miss his mother again, he was afraid that it would be bad if he cried again, so he hurriedly dragged the two of them into the yard to chat, and quickly changed the topic!

The old man's name is Zhang Qi, and he is the seventh eldest, so he is called Zhang Qiye in the green forest!His martial arts skills are extremely good, and it was passed down by his third elder brother, Zhang Zhongjian, the bearded man who is the head of the Three Heroes in the Wind and Dust, and it is also personally passed down by Bai Fan's third uncle!

From Hong Fu Nu, Bai Fan knew that his mother had nine elder brothers and one elder sister. There were 11 brothers and sisters in total, nine males and two females. Zhang Chuchen was older than the seventh and younger than the sixth, so some people called him eldest sister. Someone called him big sister!

"Your mansion has been bought, not far from your aunt's house. Originally, according to your status as an earl, the court needed the court to build an earl's mansion for you, but there happened to be an idle mansion, and the scale was not small. Your Majesty said two days ago that you I will reward you directly for your meritorious service. That is a large courtyard at the level of a Marquis Mansion!

Later, you will spend time with your seventh uncle to buy some maids, servants and cooks. When the family business grows, it will always need manpower to take care of it. My aunt will also send you some reliable servants from the mansion. ! "

Bai Fan thought, so troublesome?

"Well, there's no one in the Bai family now, just me, plus Uncle Qi, there are only two people, isn't a big yard a waste? And how can I use servants and the like!"

"When will you grow up, kid? Are you alone? Are you ashamed to say, aren't you from the Bai family when you take in four younger sisters? Can the four girls be kept in Laojunguan forever? It's not appropriate to put them in your academy. , They are all unscrupulous boys, it will be bad when there is trouble again!

Your Bai Fan's younger sister can be considered my niece. As an uncle of Lantian County, they are ladies from aristocratic families, how can you treat them like ordinary beggars?In the future, they will be married to their in-law's family. Haven't you thought about this? "Hong Fu Nu pointed at Bai Fan's nose and scolded him!"

Bai Fan ignored this matter. He took in a few younger sisters for two or three months. He was either busy building the academy, or busy practicing martial arts and teaching!For a moment, Bai Fan felt a little guilty in his heart. At that time, he had agreed to treat him like his own sister!

"This is because the child is a little confused, or my aunt is interested, then listen to my aunt and take all the younger sisters into the new house! At that time, I will find a private school teacher to teach them how to read and write! Just recruit maids and the like , can you not? My child is not used to being served by others, and I don't want to see others suffer!"

At this time, the old man Zhang Qi said, "I heard from my eldest brother-in-law that you have a kind heart, and that you have built a house in Sanyuan and you are self-reliant, which is very good in the first place!

But children, you need to know that we live here, we can’t be independent in everything, sometimes we have to walk with everyone, you are also a nobleman now, but if you don’t have a little bit of nobility, then apart from you Except for your relatives and brothers, it is difficult for you to get the recognition of other nobles. They will only think you are a nouveau riche, and they still look down on you!

Although you have good intentions, doing some things will make it difficult for you to move an inch!

Furthermore, you also came from a poor background as a commoner, and you are also the leader of the beggar gang. Although you are afraid of seeing people suffer as laborers, don't you know where the Datang trades maids and servants?There are slave markets, and there are priest workshops, all of which train maid dancers or servant artisans!Ninety percent of the so-called servant songs come from here!

These people were originally civilians, but in the end they were enslaved for various reasons. Before they were bought, they had to undergo cruel training in the slave market and priest workshop, and they were hungry and full. Everyone I suffer every day, and I hope that a kind person will buy me away, and I can get out of this sea of ​​suffering a little bit!

Many unscrupulous people bought maids and maids, and finally tortured them like human beings. In the end, those people were tortured to death. This is why some people would rather starve to death than sell themselves as slaves!Because after being a slave, if they were bought by these people, it would be better to die early and suffer!

You are also an aristocrat now, with a mansion and status, and you are not short of money. You bought a lot of maids and servants to serve them. As long as you don’t criticize and mistreat them, you are saving them, not what you think.

In fact, everyone has their own living environment. Whether they suffer or not is not decided by you, the master of the house?

Although this is the first time you and I have met today, no matter what I heard or saw, I believe that you are definitely a good boy with a benevolent heart!

Listen to the old uncle's advice, you are still young, you can't do everything according to your temper!

The old uncle has been wandering all his life and has seen all kinds of life. There are too many miseries in the world. Today, when you have the ability, if you can help these suffering people, just do it!

Handmaiden slave song, every noble family has it, and your Bai family should also have it. As long as you sincerely let them escape from the sea of ​​suffering, they will only think of you. We are doing good deeds, and we should have a clear conscience. mind! "

After Bai Fan listened calmly, he nodded slowly. The so-called listening to what you say is better than reading for ten years. I never thought that an elderly uncle and a green forest man would have such thorough insights. !

Standing up, he bowed solemnly to Zhang Qi, "My child has been taught! Thanks to Uncle Qi for teaching me, my child is too young to understand etiquette, and the Bai family will rely on you to worry about me in the future!"

Hongfu girl smiled and said, "Seventh brother, your mouth is much stronger than my sister's and mine. My sister's persuasion didn't work for a day, but your few words have enlightened this kid!"

Zhang Qi said, "It's the child who is smart and flexible! It's not too late, let's go to Laojunguan to pick up a few girls now! Then we can go to work on the family. You have a lot of things in the academy, so finish your work sooner." Also feel at ease sooner!"

Bai Fan pulled Zhang Qidao, "My aunt said that you want to be the housekeeper for the child. How can this be done? You can take care of this house. From then on, we, uncle and nephew, will depend on each other. The child must abide by filial piety and dare not Neglect, we just need to hire another butler, if people know that I, Bai Fan, let my uncle be the janitor butler, won’t I be scolded to death?”

Hong Fu Nu also comforted Zhang Qi from the side, Zhang Qi was moved, he lived alone all his life, and when he was old, he could still leave a child to take care of him, it was really thanks to his little sister!In the end, I agreed with tears!

Chapter 99

In Chang'an City, Hong Fu Nu was meeting Mrs. Qin Qiong and Mrs. Cheng Yaojin, when Zhang Chuchen said, "Hey! I want to ask my two younger sisters for help today!"

The three of them have always had a good relationship, so the other two quickly asked, what's the matter?Sister, just give orders!

"Both younger sisters know that I have a poor younger sister who gave birth to a lin'er a few years ago. My brother-in-law also died in love last year after raising the child. Now my lonely nephew is left alone, who is already 15 years old. , I want to talk about marriage with him, but I don't know anyone who has a good girl of the right age, so I want the help of two younger sisters!

Oh, you all know my nephew, that is Bai Fan who founded Zhongnan Academy! "

When the two heard it, well, it turned out that they were looking for a marriage for Bai Fan.So they all quickly agreed, and when they got back, they invited their girlfriends and friends to spread the news, and started looking for girls!

Qin Shubao listened to his wife talking about this matter, and wondered why Bai Fan didn't say anything about it in the academy?Oh, maybe he was embarrassed!

"It's a bit of a pity. A certain family doesn't have a daughter. If there is one, you can marry Bai Fan. She will definitely be a good son-in-law!" Qin Qiong said, stroking his beard.

Mrs. Qin laughed and scolded, "I'm old and not serious, Huai Dao is 20 years old, you are going to have a grandson, and you still want a girl?

Besides, you formed a brotherhood with Bai Fan on the battlefield, do you still want to marry your daughter to your brother? "

"What are you afraid of?

This, being a husband doesn't mean that! "Then the old man blushed, and the words became darker and darker!"

In fact, the ancients also had an open side. There was no saying that one could not get married due to seniority, and there were even many brothers rushing to send their daughters to fill in the house!

For example, if two people are good friends, one party lost his wife in middle age, and the other party happens to have a [-]-year-old daughter, then it is very likely that this person will marry his daughter to his friend to fill in the house. There are many such examples, which are all It is a habit passed down from generation to generation by the ancients, and everyone can accept such things!

So what Qin Qiong meant at this time was that there was nothing wrong with his daughter marrying Bai Fan, but he was afraid that his wife would misunderstand that he wanted to have another daughter at this time, so he would blush!

It seems that there are still many bad traditions in ancient times. For example, in ancient times, it was not uncommon for old couples and young wives. The famous Northern Song Dynasty writer Su Dongpo went to the wedding of his 80-year-old friend who married a concubine. The bride was a young girl. At the banquet, Su Shi also wrote a poem, Eighteen brides and eighty husbands, with pale hair and red makeup.The mandarin ducks are trapped in a double night, and a pear tree crushes crabapples!This sentence, a pear tree pressing a crabapple, has become a classic sentence that has been sung through the ages, and its meaning is to satirize the old husband and young wife!

This kind of thing actually shows that the social status of women in ancient times was very low!

Here at Cheng Yaojin's house, he also heard his wife talk about this matter, and shouted with regret, "It's a pity that our daughter is only three years old, otherwise she would be a good match for Bai Fan!"

Mrs. Cheng also nodded with regret!

. . .It seems that no parents in the world would call their daughter ugly!

The next day happened to be the Great Court Meeting, I saw Cheng Yaojin whispering to Li Jing in the court hall. Mrs. Nei Zhai is in charge of contacting Chao Wu.

When Li Er announced his resignation, before the crowd had left the hall, Cheng Motou pulled Li Jing and shouted loudly, "Pharmacist, don't you want to find a wife for Boy Bai? Instead of asking each family, why don't you ask everyone?" They are all in the main hall, how nice to ask!"

Li Jing didn't like it, and this scumbag is about to make a mess again. How can he openly ask questions about such a private matter?

But everyone was interested in Cheng Motou's words, so Li Er didn't leave, and asked what was the matter?

I saw Cheng Motou standing in the middle of the hall and shouting loudly, "Bo Baifan of Lantian County is the nephew of the pharmacist, and the pharmacist wants to find a marriage for the nephew, so if anyone has a good girl of the right age in his family, would you like to marry him?" Those who come to negotiate, first come, first served!

Bai Fan's requirement is to be beautiful, slim, and not to be young."

Before Devil Cheng finished shouting, Li Jing hurried forward and covered his mouth tightly. You black man, shouting at the top of your voice, won't you ruin my nephew's reputation?There is no such thing, we are getting married, not going to apply to be a door-to-door son-in-law!

I mourn in silence for my nephew. It was my uncle who was not good and made friends carelessly, which caused you to become famous again. I guess I am also in tragedy. How can I explain to my wife when I go home?
