Lu Dynasty

Chapter 694 Jiang Boyue

I am very satisfied with this child. A four- or five-year-old child knows that rewards and punishments are clear and obeys the law. It can be seen that his father has put a lot of effort into him.If it wasn't for the fact that the child's father had died in battle, I would have invited him to have a chat. Maybe I would have discovered a talent hidden among the petty officials!You must know that the Han Dynasty was dominated by children from aristocratic families. Unless there are people with outstanding talents, it is really difficult for children from poor families to succeed.Just like Fazheng, Guo Jia, and Xi Zhicai in history, if they hadn't met Liu Bei, who was really useless, and Cao, who was eclectic, they would have been buried in the long river of history.

Seeing that I didn't speak, the woman and the child looked at me very nervously, and the shopkeeper's cough made me react immediately.I glared at him angrily. When he saw me staring at him, he touched his head and smiled embarrassedly!I turned to the child and asked, "Your father is an official. If he hadn't gone, I would really like to meet him. Could you tell me, what's your father's name?"

"My father's surname is Jiang and his name is uncharacteristic!" The child proudly announced his father's name.

"Jiang Jiong?" This name seems to have been heard somewhere, but it is very familiar anyway.I suddenly remembered that I had never asked the child's name, so I asked again: "Then what's your name?"

The child bowed down and said: "Boy Jiang Wei, before my father left, he named me Boyue!"

"Jiang Wei, Jiang Boyue" I blinked, lamenting my good luck, going out to see my son casually, and I can pick up talents.If he is really Jiang Wei in history, I have found another treasure!I looked at this child carefully and found that his age was about the same as that of Jiang Wei in history. He is now four or five years old. In order to confirm his identity, I asked again: "Where are you from!"

"He is from Ji County, Tianshui!" I don't know which county Jiang Wei is from, but I do know that he is from Tianshui!In this way, this child is likely to be Jiang Wei in the future!If this is the case, and he becomes my apprentice, I will teach him with all my heart, and I will give him more opportunities to practice. I must never let him be like in history, talented but inexperienced.I remember that Jiang Wei was able to design Zhuge Liang before he became a teacher of Zhuge Liang in history, but after he became a teacher, he faced Deng Ai, who was not as good as Zhuge Liang, and was defeated repeatedly because of his lack of experience.Looking at the little Jiang Wei in front of me, I was in a trance again after thinking about it!

"Cough!" The shopkeeper coughed again, reminding me not to lose my composure, and Jiang Wei's mother and son are still waiting for me.Seeing Mother Jiang's nervous expression, I smiled and said: "I like this son very much. If Madam has no objection, I will take him as a disciple. As for the life of your mother and son, you can live in my house first!"

"This!" Mother Jiang hesitated. Although she had already lost her husband, the ancients got married early.Today's mother Jiang is only in her early twenties, if she lives in my house, she is worried that there will be some gossip.Seeing Mother Jiang hesitated, the shopkeeper quickly gave her a wink, but Mother Jiang still bowed down and said: "Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I am a woman, and it is inconvenient to live in the husband's house, so please arrange another place for our mother and son! "

"Ma'am, please accept your kindness!" The shopkeeper said anxiously, "You know, sir never accepts students casually, and never takes people home casually." , it is even more repulsive!Women in the Han Dynasty cared about fame and integrity. Although it was not as serious as later generations, the defense between men and women began since the beginning of the Han Dynasty.Otherwise, Chen Ping in the early Han Dynasty would not be regarded as a stain because his brother died and he had an affair with his sister-in-law.

"Since the madam is unwilling, I can't force it, but there are no residential houses in the inner city of Luoyang. If you move out of the inner city, it will be inconvenient for you and Xiao Wei'er to come and go. It seems that the madam can only live in this restaurant!" It's even worse for a woman to live in a restaurant for a long time. In ancient times, women's part-time jobs were not as casual as in modern times. Married men seldom go to places like restaurants to work as waiters.Since it is impossible to please generals, I can only provoke generals!Sure enough, as I expected, Jiang's mother's expression became more hesitant. In order to force Jiang's mother to submit, I took another dose of harsh medicine and said: "Since Wei'er worships me as a teacher, he will naturally live in my house, otherwise How can I teach him? My mansion is heavily guarded. Except for acquaintances, everyone who enters the mansion needs to be strictly interrogated. If you go there often, wouldn’t it be more suspicious? Why don’t you live in my mansion and take care of Wei’er every day!”

Although little Jiang Wei was smart, he was still a child. When he heard that his mother was going to separate from him, he immediately cried, "Mother doesn't want Wei'er anymore! If that's the case, I'd rather not be a teacher!"

Jiang's mother was shocked when she heard Jiang Wei's words. If she didn't ask for a teacher, God knows if I would take care of their mother and son.In case I really don't care, Jiang's mother can only take Jiang Wei to live, and wait until Jiang Wei is old enough to go to school next year.Even if they have enough money, Jiang's mother can't guarantee that he can give little Jiang Wei a happy life, not to mention that their troubles are almost over.Moreover, Jiang's mother is also a discerning person. From the shopkeeper's attitude towards me, she can see that I am not a mortal.After hesitating for a while, Jiang's mother sighed: "I just obeyed Mr.'s words! Please trouble Mr.!" Seeing Jiang's mother agreed, I was very happy.Now my son is only five or six years old. If he is not too useless, he will probably succeed me in the future.Although I often say that I don't want my children to inherit my position, the reform is not so easy. The succession of father and son has existed for thousands of years since Xia Qi, and it is not easy to change overnight.One day, I will be gone, with Guo Jia’s support on the outside, and Jiang Wei’s advice on the inside, if I can find Deng Ai and Zhou Buyi again, at least I don’t have to worry about my son.As for the funeral, future generations will worry about it.

Apprenticeship is solemn and ceremonial.At least, I can't let Jiang Wei apprentice in the hotel.So, I took Jiang's mother and son back to the Prime Minister's Mansion.Seeing the signboard of the Prime Minister's Mansion hanging on the door, and seeing the guards at the door saluting to me, how could Mother Jiang not know who I am? She was both surprised and happy, but still a little nervous.I'm afraid that I took her son as my apprentice because of her beauty.To be honest, Mother Jiang is indeed pretty, but compared to Cai Yan and Diao Chan, she is nothing, even Lu Bu's concubine Yan Shi is more beautiful than her.If it weren't for seeing his son's intelligence and being a well-known talent in both civil and military affairs, I would be lazy to take her home!Although Cai Yan and the others are not jealous, if unnecessary misunderstandings arise because of her, wouldn't I be wronged?If outsiders know that Cao Cao and I have the same problem of liking young women, then I will cry without tears!
