Chapter 918 Future Plans
The next day, on Zhou Shuren's rest day, Wu Ming arrived in Beijing at a very coincidental time. He stayed at Zhou's house last night and had dinner in the morning. Zhou Shuren took Wu Ming to the appointment.
On Zhou Shuren's rest day, he had already made an appointment with Wang Zhuo to drink tea early, and together with Ming Teng's future father-in-law, Mr. Liu.
Bringing Wu Ming this time, the first is to introduce him to Wu Ming, and the second is to tell the people in the capital that he values this godson very much.
Zhou Shuren likes the agreed teahouse, so he won't meet Lord Shen this time.
Zhou Shuren came early with Wu Ming and ordered some snacks and dried fruits.
Wu Ming opened the window as soon as he entered the box, watching the people coming and going on the street, watching the small vendors hawking, Wu Ming was a little dazed, he had been away from the capital for too long, he did not expect to enter Beijing so soon, and then laughed again.
The shopkeeper had already brought in tea, Zhou Shuren waited for the shopkeeper to go out and asked, "What do you think of?"
Wu Ming turned his head, got up and sat down, "Recalling the days when I went to Beijing to catch the exam."
Zhou Shuren poured tea for himself, "The days go by so fast, in a blink of an eye, several years have passed."
He sometimes recalls, recalling the time when he first arrived in ancient times, recalling his official career, these are all precious memories in his heart.
Wu Ming curled his lips, "Actually, I have saved a lot of money outside the border."
My sister's dowry, my younger brother's betrothal gift, the house bought in the capital, my own betrothal gift this time, etc.
Zhou Shuren held up his teacup, "Good job."
Wu Ming felt as if he was chatting with his biological father. He was very comfortable, "I have plans for the future. At present, my two younger brothers are not able to survive alone. I don't plan to divide the family, so I want to divide the money in my hand. , buy the property alone, and in the future, the family will be separated and handed over to Wu Yong and Wu Ting."
After finishing speaking, Wu Ming himself was heartbroken. An elder brother is like a father, and his elder brother is his father, and his younger siblings all want him to worry about it.
Zhou Shuren understood why Wu Ming didn't tell Zhulan that he had a higher position in this kid's heart, and Wu Ming was an official, so he was more willing to share with him, "Your plan is very good."
Wu Ming didn't say that he asked his godfather to help him set up the property, he could handle such small things by himself.
In the Zhou family, Zhulan had already written to Wu Yan. Wu Ming said yesterday, but he hadn't told Wu Yong about his coming to Beijing. Zhulan wrote the letter together.
After the letter was sent away, Zhulan wrote a letter of greeting, and she wanted to go to the Song family to discuss marriage with the Liu family.
Xuehan has been with her mother all the time, and she will not continue to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting after the next year, "Mother, Brother Wu is going to get married, and the supplies for the marriage must be prepared. There are a few good shops in the capital, and my daughter will write them for you."
Because Zhulan's daughter only gets married in winter, she was in no hurry to order things for the wedding, so she squinted her eyes, "Did Rong Chuan tell you?"
Xuehan was still a little embarrassed, "Well, after the new year, he has carefully selected."
Zhulan was speechless, Rong Chuan was really anxious, she had chosen so early, "Okay, give it to me later, I will go and have a look after discussing it with the Song family."
Xuehan heaved a sigh of relief, it's great that Mother didn't continue to ask, since the Chinese New Year, Rong Chuan's courage has not grown, but the message has become more diligent, um, there are gifts, how long has it been since the Chinese New Year, she is preparing a new The box is almost full.
Zhulan looked at her daughter who blushed for a while, then became angry for a while, sighed a word of youth, and then became unhappy. Zhou Shuren took a lot of money in his hand. He had promised to give her a small surprise, but the result was !
She hasn't seen a gift yet, let alone a little surprise.
Xuehan raised her head, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Zhulan felt depressed, "Mother is just a little emotional, now that I'm getting older, your father's thoughts on me are getting less and less.
"
That's right, Zhulan is unhappy, if she didn't expect it, she wouldn't think about it, now the more she thinks about it, the angrier she gets.
Xuehan, "Huh?"
Zhulan held her daughter's hand, "Your father didn't have much money before, so remember to give me a gift, now?"
Xuehan blinked her eyes, so she cheated on her own father? If she didn't mention Rong Chuan, mother wouldn't think of father either. Xuehan thought about a few sister-in-laws, and every time Rong Chuan gave a gift, the sister-in-laws would talk about it, and then the brothers would all grimace.
At the teahouse, Wang Juo and Master Liu Liu Jing arrived. Zhou Shuren introduced, "My godson Wu Ming, who was the number one scholar back then, is now in the Ministry of Rites."
Wang Juo has always been very optimistic about Wu Ming, and said to Wu Ming: "Your godfather and I have mentioned you a lot, today, no, we met yesterday."
Wu Ming knew a lot about his godfather, and his godfather wouldn't talk too much. The two younger brothers met with Wu Yan. Master Wang was not only an in-law of the Zhou family, but also a friend of his godfather. He hurriedly said, "I met Uncle Wang. "
Liu Jing was heartbroken. His daughter was betrothed to Zhou Shuren's grandson, who was a generation younger than Wang Jue. He was depressed, but still smiled. gone."
Zhou Shuren answered: "You should be happy that talents come out in large numbers, one generation after another, the country is stable and strong, and only our descendants can prosper."
Liu Jing loves to hear this sentence, isn't it because of his family and descendants that he came to this day?
Wu Ming helped to pour the tea, the more Wang Juo looked at Wu Ming, the more regretful he felt, and said to Zhou Shuren: "Now we can tell which girl is engaged to Wu Ming!"
Zhou Shuren smiled, "The Song family."
There are many powers and surnames in this capital city, and those with the surname Song are not necessarily a family, just like Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li, etc., there are several Song families.
Wang Juo asked, "You mean the Da Song family?"
Zhou Shuren nodded with a smile, "Yes."
Wang Jue thought to himself, "Be good, it turned out to be the Song family. The Tao family is no match. The Song family is the real power. Wu Ming's eyes are different now, but first I want to congratulate, "Good marriage."
Wu Ming is happy that he has got a good marriage. His life is not easy, and he has to drag his younger brothers, and who has no ambitions? He does have ambitions. He wants to climb high to see the scenery above.
Liu Jing stroked his beard. He didn't say much, he was more willing to listen. He was counting Zhou Shuren's connections after he entered Beijing. Go forward boldly.
The Zhou family and Zhulan have already received a reply from the Song family. The Song family has been paying attention to Wu Ming. The Song family also knows about Wu Ming's arrival in Beijing. The Song family is also afraid of long nights and dreams if they reply to the post so quickly.
In the palace, the emperor had been standing in front of the window for a while, looking at the bonsai tree with only branches left outside the window. The wind was a bit strong this morning, but now the wind is much stronger, and the branches are shaking.
Eunuch Liu used to think that glazed windows were good, they could brighten up the house and allow you to see the scenery outside from the inside of the house. Now Eunuch Liu wished the windows were made of paper. He hoped that the emperor’s gaze would be removed from the branches. His eyes widened, and his back was covered in cold sweat.
