Chapter 1389 Gap
Changsun Wuji walked into the mansion, and the servants behind him who were carrying gifts came to the main entrance under the leadership of Changsun Huan.
The steward of the owner-occupied family came forward, first received the gift list, and then took the servants of the eldest grandson's family to the warehouse to deliver the goods. After counting, they were registered in the etiquette book. In the future, whenever there is a wedding or funeral in the eldest grandson's family, The Fang family will usually return the gift according to this congratulation.
Changsun Huan naturally stayed and chatted with Fang Jun for a few words.
It was already noon, and the guests who were supposed to come had almost arrived. There were only a few guests at the door who had been delayed due to business delays, so there were more opportunities to talk.
Fang Jun then led Changsun Huan into the concierge next to the door.
"Why don't you see Li Erlang and Cheng Chubi?" Changsun Huan has recently been favored by his father, and many affairs in the house have been entrusted to him. The Changsun family is currently in troubled times, so he went out to pay a visit to the house a few days ago. Leaving in a hurry, today comes at night.
It stands to reason that with a relationship like his and Fang Jun's, it would make sense even if they acted as greeters at the door together today.
Fang Jun sat on the chair and rubbed his legs, and said angrily: "Chu Bi was sent to Liaodong by Uncle Cheng half a month ago, and he can't come back in time. Li Siwen doesn't want to idle around at home, so he begs your majesty to give him a Qinzhou Prefecture Guoyi." I have the official position of Captain, and this time I wrote a letter saying that there is unrest in the area, and the county soldiers are on guard day and night, and I really can't escape. , but yesterday his little girl came to the house to meet her roommate, and she said that Li Siwen was interested in a young lady from a local family in Qinzhou, and was passionately pursuing... Mom! There are inhuman things about the opposite sex, and he said so. It sounds great, but he does one thing in front of others and does another behind his back. He is simply a scum!”
Qinzhou is an important town in Longyou, and Captain Guo Yi is the deputy of Captain Zhechong. He is equivalent to the second-in-command of the Qinzhou Military Region. He can also be regarded as the one who takes the lead. Coupled with his father's halo, even though he is the second-in-command, The son cannot take over the title, but he will definitely be able to gain a foothold in the military and achieve a career in the future.
When Changsun Huan heard Fang Jun say "one thing in front of others and another behind his back", his heart suddenly tightened, his eyelids twitched, and he felt guilty.
He raised his head and took a look at Fang Jun's face. He happened to meet Fang Jun's eyes, his breath froze for a moment, and his eyes subconsciously moved away.
Could it be that during the last Xiaoju incident in Dongshi, Fang Jun found out about the fact that he had hidden a plan in his heart and went to inform him late?
Changsun Huan drummed in his heart, regretting what happened that day. Fang Jun had always treated him well, but at the critical moment, he resolutely hid his selfishness and stabbed his friend in the back. He was really ungrateful and unloyal.
At this moment, he was on pins and needles, so he could only smile awkwardly and said: "It's understandable. Li Erlang saw that you and I are both married and have children, so why don't you be anxious? He never wants to lag behind others and does something extraordinary. It’s not surprising.”
It sounds like he is defending Li Siwen, but in fact he is excusing himself.
Fang Jun narrowed his eyes and was noncommittal. Just as he was about to speak, a servant came in at the door and said, "Erlang, the Linghu family sent someone to congratulate you personally. The visitor is at the door."
Fang Jun was stunned for a moment: "Linghu's family?"
Linghu Defen, an old guy, had been humbled in front of him more than once. He even got scratched so hard by Wu Meiniang that his face was bloody, causing him to lose his face and his reputation. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a life-or-death enemy, but he actually sent someone to congratulate him?
Could it be that I took the wrong medicine...
But since they are here, you can't turn them away, right?
Then he said to Changsun Huan: "You go and sit in the house for a while, and you will toast with me later. I can't handle Uncle Cheng's gang of hard-working people by myself."
Hearing this, Changsun Huanru was granted amnesty. He knew that even if Fang Jun knew the inside story, he had already forgiven him. He hurriedly patted his chest and said that if the soldiers come, they will cover up the water and the earth. Today, he will definitely help Fang Jun defeat those old gangs. , and then immediately slipped into the house.
Fang Jun sighed secretly.
Changsun Huan deliberately informed him late that day, which really made him furious. If Changsun Huan could inform in time, he would naturally be able to deal with it calmly, and would not cause things to happen in a hurry, and in the end he would have to resort to arson, smashing, looting, and exacerbating the situation, which would cost the enemy one thousand and damage himself eight hundred.
But thinking about it afterwards, who can blame me?
Born in the secular world, how many people can seriously put their loyalty first and ignore their own interests? If someone could treat him with sincerity and loyalty, he would naturally be willing to go through fire and water in return; but since Changsun Huan values personal gain, there is no need to turn against him immediately. He can just know what happens in the future and he will never support him like before. Changsun Huan fully supports him by controlling the shares of "Dong Datang Company".
If you treat me as a national scholar, I will naturally repay you as a national scholar.
If we just use each other, then I won’t dig out my heart and soul...
When he arrived at the door, he saw Linghu Yuanchao standing there with a childish and delicate face.
As soon as Linghu Yuanchao saw Fang Jun, a sincere smile immediately appeared on his pretty little face, and he stepped forward to salute with clasped fists: "Erlang is very happy today. In the name of my uncle, my nephew has specially prepared gifts to come here to congratulate me."
Fang Jun stepped forward to return the gift. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "Come on, don't add glory to your uncle. I'm afraid Linghu Shangshu is not thinking about strangling someone to death. He will congratulate someone? Haha."
Linghu Yuanchao hurriedly said: "Erlang misunderstood. Today I came on the order of my uncle. Of course, even if my uncle refuses to come, my nephew will still come..."
Fang Jun chuckled and patted Linghu Yuanchao on the shoulder. He really liked this honest boy and said with a smile: "If you have this kind of heart, I will be happy. You can come to the house for a banquet. I will introduce you to them later." This young man is very close to me."
Linghu Yuanchao was immediately overjoyed.
Although the Linghu family is a member of the Guanlong Group, due to the pedantic and stubborn nature of his great-uncle, few people actually have close contacts with the Linghu family. This results in the Linghu family's network of contacts being extremely narrow. The Guanlong Group is so angry that the outside world is unwilling to pay attention to their family...
And with Fang Jun's status, the "young handsome man" who can catch his eye must be a momentary hero. If he can get to know more of them, it will naturally be of great benefit to him.
Fang Jun asked his servants to lead Linghu Yuanchao inside. Suddenly he remembered something and asked, "What kind of congratulations has your mansion prepared?"
This is actually a bit abrupt and even a bit disrespectful. When someone comes to congratulate you, it's a favor, not the amount of gifts. Even if you are really dissatisfied with the other party's frivolous congratulations, you can't express it openly, otherwise wouldn't it make people laugh?
But Fang Jun was really curious. As far as he knew, the Linghu family had been tortured by Wu Meiniang and lost a lot of money. This time, the servants of the clan who had made trouble in Dongshi were even more bloodbathed. At this time, the former If you come to congratulate someone, what kind of congratulations will you prepare?
Based on his understanding of Linghu Defen, that stubborn old man...
Sure enough, when Linghu Yuanchao heard Fang Jun ask about this, his face suddenly fell and he was ashamed: "Please forgive me, Erlang, my family is really without money now..."
Fang Jun waved his hand: "I'm just curious. Your uncle is not a broad-minded person. It's unexpected to send you here to congratulate him. What kind of congratulations will he prepare?"
Linghu Yuanchao had a sad face and said nothing, his face flushed and he was embarrassed.
The steward on the side came close to Fang Jun and whispered: "Back to Erlang, the congratulatory gift from the Linghu family is a basket of red chickens and a pure silver Baijia lock..."
"..."
Fang Jun almost laughed out of anger!
Linghu Defen, this old guy, really must retaliate for his evil deeds!
When I see him coming to congratulate the Fang family outside, I must say that he is generous and generous, regardless of past grudges, and he will ruthlessly gain a wave of praise! But what is Heyi? A basket of eggs, a Baijia lock, worth less than ten thousand dollars... Even though Fang Jun was so angry that he burst into rage, he could only hold it in and couldn't spit it out.
Is it possible to spread the word about disdain for the Linghu family's lack of congratulations?
They have already lost a lot of money because of you, but they can still congratulate you regardless of their previous grudges. On the contrary, you dislike them for not giving enough gifts...
Then it will be Fang Jun who is laughing.
When Linghu Yuanchao saw Fang Jun's expression, he felt uneasy and secretly complained about his uncle.
No matter how poor the family is, it’s not like they can’t afford a gift, right?
This time, Fang Jun was really offended. Such congratulations were like slapping Fang Jun in the face... He was really afraid that Fang Jun would kick him out in anger, and then he would become a The whole city of Chang'an was the laughing stock.
Fang Jun simply gritted his teeth and muttered something in a low voice, without taking his anger out on himself, and waved his hand to himself: "Hurry up and have a banquet in the back house."
As if Linghu Yuanchao had received amnesty, he ran away like a rabbit that had been hit by an arrow and rushed to the back house...
Fang Jun was angry and funny, and cursed in a low voice: "Old man, just wait for me. If I don't torment you, you don't know that Lord Ma has three eyes!" (End of Chapter)
