Yipin Tianxia

Before parting, Ouyang Mulan stuffed a stack of papers into Ouyang Kang's hand, "Don't worry, I'll bring them if you want. This is for you, it's considered meal money."

Miss Ouyang was quick to do things, and she didn't hide when she gave the bank note, "Take it, anyway, it's something at home, and you should have your share. Let's go!"

Seeing that Ouyang Kang still wanted to evade, Ouyang Zhuang said, "Brother, take it. Even if you don't need it now, if you can enter the Imperial College, there are still plenty of places to spend money. Even if you don't need it, just take it and give it to me." Sister Mu invites a few people, and rents a shop to do business seriously. It's going to be cold soon, are you still setting up a stall outside?"

Taking another look at Gao Gao who was sweating profusely with his sleeves rolled up, Ouyang Kang finally accepted the money, "Then I will just treat it as a loan from you guys. Thank you, brother and sister, I will remember it. There will always be a time to return it later.”

"Anyway, it's not the money we earned. If you want to pay it back to you, you might as well pay it back to your grandmother. She is an elder, so you must give it to her." Ouyang Mulan made a playful grimace, waved her hand cheerfully, and left with Ouyang Zhuang.

Ouyang Kang suppressed the thousands of thoughts in his heart, put the purse in his pocket, concentrated, and started to work!

After sending his sister thirty miles outside the city, Ouyang Zhuang gave her instructions and said goodbye to her.When they returned home, Ouyang Jin had already returned.

Hearing that the elder daughter had taken the younger daughter away, Ouyang Jin was still a little angry, snorted coldly, and didn't want to talk more.But Ouyang Zhuang thought about it, and decided to say something more, "Before we left, my sister said she wanted to say goodbye to my elder brother, so we went to see him."

Ouyang Jin's expression changed slightly, "Did you see him? How is that bastard doing now?"

"The residence is dilapidated. Eldest Brother and Sister Mu also set up a small stall in Beishi, selling crystal rolls for fifteen cents a plate."

ha!Ouyang Jin gave a strange smile, and held up a cup of tea quite proudly, "I thought it was a great thing to leave home, but now I'm suffering? Let that evil son kneel at the door to reflect on himself, and I won't let you in if I don't scream .”

"But brother didn't say he would come back."

What?Ouyang Jin raised his head in surprise and anger, "Is this an attitude of admitting his mistake? Do you think I will forgive him if you tell me?"

"Father, I'm afraid you misunderstood it? Eldest brother never said to admit his mistakes. In fact, we just glanced at him, said a few words and left. Elder brother didn't mention anything else."

"Bastard!" Ouyang Jin was so angry that he threw his teacup on the ground, "I will never repent like this. Don't think that I will recommend books to him soft-heartedly! Go and tell him that even if I would rather give it to your brother, I would never give it to him. .”

Ouyang Zhuang took a look at his furious father, and said quietly, "If father has something to say, let the servants pass it on. I really have no face. Otherwise, if people ask, what should I say?"

"You!" Ouyang Jin wanted to scold him for wanting to rebel.But the son had already turned around and left.Leaving Ouyang brocade hanging there, he was so angry that he turned around to trouble Mrs. Tan.

But Mrs. Tan just bid farewell to her daughter today, and her grief has not yet come to an end, how can she be in the mood to talk to him?

"If you don't like it, I can drive Zhuang'er back to my hometown too! You are left alone, who else in this family will disobey you? Did the child say something? It's just to tell you that he saw someone. He What offended you, and you want to anger him like this?"

Ouyang Jin was choked speechless.But he really didn't dare to drive Ouyang Zhuang out.After all, this second son is the one who is about to meet the emperor, if he can't hand it over, what can he say?

Ever since, Master Ouyang could only scold a few words without pain, but women and villains were difficult to support, so he took the money and went out to have fun.

Mrs. Tan didn't care about him, but couldn't help but called Ouyang Zhuang and said a few words, "Your sister is ignorant, why are you ignorant too? Well... what's so good about a person? If someone sees it, what should you say?" you?"

"Mother, please think about it, even if I don't go, isn't my brother's surname Ouyang, so it has nothing to do with me? No matter why he went outside, if we don't take care of him at all, what will the people outside say? Dad You can be unreasonable, because he is my brother's own father, but what about you?"

Mrs. Tan asked her son for a moment.

Ouyang Zhuang was right. If she were Ouyang Kang's mother, no one would speak to him if she was unfeeling to him.But she is a stepmother, and her own children are all under her knees, but she left the former wife's eldest son outside. If she doesn't know the inside story, will she blame herself?

"Then tell me, what should I do?"

Ouyang Zhuang said, "I think what my brother means is that he will never come back. Originally, all the servants in his yard were assigned to him. Why don't we just send them along with the things, and follow my monthly rules? Send the money to my brother and those servants. Whether my brother is willing to accept it is his business, but whether to give it or not is up to us."

Mrs. Tan nodded again and again, but she was reluctant to give away the furniture and utensils saved for her son. After thinking about it, she asked the housekeeper to quickly buy a batch of not-so-good off-the-shelf goods. The servants carried it on their shoulders and hands, and took advantage of the daylight to send it to Ouyang Kang in a mighty manner.

She thought that Ouyang Kang would refuse to take it in a haughty manner, but she didn't expect that Ouyang Kang, who closed the stall and returned home, would accept even people and things.

Young Master Ouyang is not stupid, he is now a barren house, and he has nothing to ask for, there are such a group of free long-term workers who don't pay wages, and these things, why don't they accept them?

The key is people, and there is still a lot of maintenance work to be done in his dilapidated house.A few days ago, in order to sort out the front area, a lot of money was spent on hiring people to work. Young Master Ouyang, who is in charge of the house, knows that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive.Besides, even for the faces of Ouyang Zhuang and Ouyang Mulan, he couldn't slap Tan Shi in the face like this.

So young master Ouyang accepted it with a smile, and Mrs. Tan was depressed.

Of course, in order to save some trouble, I didn't bother to report these things to Ouyang Jin. It was a few days later when Master Ouyang found out.

The sun is westward and the sky is getting dark.

Ouyang Kang was scratching his abacus under the lamp, counting the profits from today's business.

Lan Gu delivered the meal, feeling a little distressed.Also somewhat disdainful, "Eldest young master, what is the use of these small moneys? My wife sent those monthly bills, which is enough anyway. This account has to be settled and left to Sister Mu, why do you have to work so hard? In the future If you want to go out again, just find two servants to do it, so you don't have to go out in person. Let people see, can't you laugh?"

these words.She has been holding back all day.No matter how I thought about it, I felt that I was right, so although I was a little careful, I still said it.

Ouyang Kang gave her a weird look, "A man, what's so ridiculous about making money with two hands? If we only count on the monthly payment, when will our family stand on its own? Forget it. You don't have to worry about these things from now on." , you go down. If Sister Mu comes back, tell her not to come up to see me in a hurry, and come over after eating first."

Lan Gu couldn't take it anymore, "Young master, this businessman is a low-class businessman. You are a good scholar, how can you do such a thing?"

Ouyang Kang frowned.Think about it but ask, "Okay, I don't do this kind of thing, so you take out the money to repair my house."

Lan Gu choked up, where did she go to change money?A little bit dissatisfied and mumbled, "This house is Miss Mu..."

Ouyang Kang was really angry, although his voice was not high.But there was an air of calm and prestige, "Langu, let me say it again for the last time, I agreed to buy this house, and it has nothing to do with Sister Mu. If you continue to disregard the importance, I really can't keep you. How about I ask someone to take you to catch up and catch up with my sister and go back to my hometown?"

He paused for a moment before trying to calm himself down and said, "Before going to Beijing, the old lady handed over the deed of sale between you and Mo Yun to me. If you really don't like me doing business with Sister Mu, I will give you freedom, give you money, and live as you want, okay?"

Lan Gu couldn't tell what was going on in her heart, Ouyang Kang was really not heartless to her, after several quarrels, he still took her with him wherever he went, no matter what he did, he arranged for her to retreat, but the love for many years fell to Now this field, can it be considered a good end?

"Master..."

"If you still want to persuade me, I really don't want to listen anymore. Lan Gu, I know you have a kind heart, but your kindness right now really makes me very distressed. Why don't you just be quiet and think about my words , and plan for yourself, okay?"

Lan Gu had no choice but to leave, but before she left, she turned her head unwillingly and asked, "Young Master, you have never said anything harsh to me about the relationship between our master and servant for so many years, but why did you change everything when you came to the capital?" gone?"

Seeing her biting her lip and the tears in her eyes, Ouyang Kang softened his heart and sighed, "Gu Lan, it's not that I came to the capital that changed, it's that you haven't figured out our current situation. You think your family Is the young master still the child who can be happy as long as he is fed and clothed? Lan Gu, I have grown up. I am a man, and a man should have a man's responsibility. Don't blame me for saying harsh words again , you think money is vulgar, but if you don't have money, can you still sit at home and think about these messy thoughts?"

Before Lan Gu wanted to speak, he stretched out his hand to stop her, "I know, you want to say, I can take care of the family, just like the second young master. But have you ever thought about it, the second young master is the wife's own son, I'm not. And I'm already so old, I also have my dignity, you want me to bow my head to beg for money from the master and wife all day long, what's the difference between that and being their slave?"

Seeing the last sneer on his lips, Lan Gu turned pale and left in a daze.

Eldest young master, he is really not the kid from before.

Shaking his head and sighing again, Ouyang Kang wanted to settle the score again, but was a little upset.After being a master and servant for so many years, why is he willing to treat Lan Gu like this?

Knock knock.There was a light knock on the door, and a pretty face smiled at the door, "Can I come in?"

This ghost girl must have heard it all!Ouyang Kang gave her a blank look, "Come in. Have you eaten yet? Go down quickly if you haven't eaten, and come back after eating."

Nianfu smiled and took out a dinner plate from behind, "I know you haven't eaten, so I specially brought it up to eat with you, just so we can discuss something."

Eat without speaking, sleep without speaking.

Ouyang Kang glanced at her, but didn't say anything. Instead, he cleared the things on the table, gave her a place to set meals, washed his hands again, brought over his own food, and started eating.Time is tight and there is no time to waste it.
