Don't panic, the family boss is busy farming

Chapter 102 The Gongsun Clan

But the food in front of him is obviously not enough for Xu Jiadalang's appetite.

But he didn't cross the table full of dishes to pick up the ones on the opposite side, but endured, and under the comfort of the young mother, he sipped the soup silently.

When Mrs. Xu saw this scene, she thought of her little grandson, who said that a half-child eats a poor old man, and a son of this age can indeed eat it.

Unable to bear Xu Dalang's hunger for food, Mrs. Xu specially ordered the servant woman who was serving beside her to ask the kitchen to cook a few more hard dishes and bring them up, and put them in front of Xu Dalang's three brothers and sisters, and let them eat slowly on the small table, you're welcome.

No, the three brothers and sisters seemed to understand her intentions, they all turned their heads and smiled brightly towards her, then turned around and picked up their chopsticks to cook steadily.

Seeing all these things, Xu became more and more confused. What happened to her uncle's family in the past ten years without contact?
During the meal, Xu Da's cousin who had never met, the lifeblood of Gongsun Yu and his wife, Gongsun An, the successor of the next generation of landowners, specially brought wine to Xu Da, and inquired about their family and their family. what is the relationship.

Xu Da pretended that we were just lucky and humble, "It just happened that Boss Gongsun was suffering from an emergency, and I happened to meet a mysterious traveling doctor who taught me some secret prescriptions, and then I happened to use this prescription He cured his illness, and in order to thank me, he happened to be on the same road with us, so he just sent us here."

Gongsun An looked at Xu Da suspiciously, is there such a coincidence?

Xu Da nodded solemnly, there really are.

"Then what is the name of this nobleman from the direct line of the family?" Gongsun An asked curiously.

Xu Da said bluntly: "Gongsun Hao, cousin, you have read the book, that is the Hao in the vast sky, he is a slave trader, oh, he seems to be selling salt, there is a caravan with nearly a thousand people, it looks very impressive .”

Speaking of this, Xu Da looked ashamed, "I'm sorry to say it, although it's not easy to know the identity of this person, but if you don't tell me, I'm embarrassed to ask, cousin, do you know who this person is?"

Gongsunhao, Gongsunhao, and Gongsunan repeated the name silently on both sides, and felt familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while.

Until Gongsun Yu "Huo" who was sitting in the main seat stood up and exclaimed: "Gongsun Hao, it's General Gongsun!"

"Ah, I remembered!" Gongsun An slapped his head, and followed his father's exclamation:

"It's General Black Tiger. Back then when Wuhuan came to invade, he entered Wuhuan King's camp with one man, one horse and one gun, took away Wuhuan Shanyu's head, and killed more than ten thousand elite Wuhuan soldiers. He is very powerful!"

Of course, I don't know if he really killed more than ten thousand elite soldiers, but just entering the king's account and taking Wuhuan Shanyu's head alone is already very human.

"You guys actually met General Black Tiger?" Gongsun An looked at Xu Da excitedly, his eyes filled with envy and admiration for this general.

Xu Da was taken aback when he heard that, "Is he a general?"

Not a slave trader?

Gongsun Yu sighed lightly, waved his hands to signal his excited son and Xu Da to sit down cross-legged, the old man said in a vague way:

"When the party was imprisoned, General Heihu was forced to retire. Not only General Heihu, but the entire Gongsun family almost fell into that disaster."

Speaking of the Gongsun clan in Youzhou, what people think of is the elite soldiers and generals of the Gongsun clan.

Gongsun's family didn't have many educated people, but they were famous for their strong soldiers and powerful generals. It's a pity that the family didn't have many educated people, so they couldn't cope with the intrigues in the court, and now they can only dominate in Youzhou.

After leaving Youzhou, the Gongsun family has nothing to do with them.

Oh, you can't say that, the northern border still has to be guarded by their Gongsun clan, and the imperial court dare not move them.

Thinking of the glory of the past, even Gongsun Yu, a fringe member of the family, is full of yearning.

Xu Da nodded, he understood that the Gongsun family is a group of well-developed limbs and simple minds.

However, Xu Da reviewed Gongsun Hao's rules of conduct along the way, and felt that this guy was a genetic mutation, and he was shrewd and calculated that he would not fail in everything.

It's no wonder that the Gongsun family can entrust him with the management of the family business. If it is a different person, they will be cheated and have to pay the number.

Just like this cousin Gongsun An in front of him, looking at Yazi who is not very smart, he asked him to get out of his old background without a few words, even the newly bought mature concubine whom he likes. Told him everything.

When Wang was still in Hejian County, Jizhou, she had heard people there say that the people in Youzhou were open, and today she experienced it personally.

When my aunt entertained their relatives, she did not separate men and women into two tables, but one table for adults and one table for children.

Cousin, cousin, aunt, and her, several women all came to the table, and cousin Xu Da and the others had dinner together.

And her aunt and cousin-in-law are different from the daughters-in-law over there in Hejian. The two of them directly brought wine and came to talk to her.

Along the way, Wang also gradually discovered that women in this era are different from those women with bound feet mentioned in history textbooks.

Etiquette is indeed stricter for women, and their thoughts are indeed imprisoned by these etiquette dogmas, but women in the family will still receive due respect.

It may be due to the extreme thirst for labor in today's society, women will be engaged in family management work, or indirectly participate in politics.

In this era, there is no dogma of the three obediences and the four virtues. If a husband dies, he can remarry, and a woman can reconcile with her husband's family even if she disagrees with her husband's family.

The higher the economic status a woman has, the more choices she has.

However, Mrs. Wang has never forgotten the woman who knelt down to beg with her child on the roadside, and even sold herself with a weed ring.

Women and women belong to the same era, but there is such a big difference between heaven and earth.

To be precise, people and people belong to the same era, but because of the difference in status, they have two completely different destinies.

The cousin-in-law Liu in front of her talked to her with a smile, but Wang's heart was so heavy that she couldn't laugh.

She picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, as a response to the other party's kindness.

But they didn't know that such a straightforward move also made Liu Shi feel good.

"Sister-in-law, the world is chaotic outside now, have you encountered any danger along the way?" Liu asked curiously.

Mrs. Wang thought of what she had seen and heard along the way, and felt that it was not a good topic for chatting, so she replied with a perfunctory smile: "I met a nobleman on the road, and it went well."

Mrs. Liu nodded, poured wine for Mrs. Wang again, and asked tentatively while pouring:

"I heard from my cousin that my uncle and the others are gone, and now my mother's natal family is only left with your relatives. Next, do you have any plans?"

Mrs. Wang heard the implication of her words, and she was worried that their family would rely on her.
