After all, Beckham was still a child. He was happy when he heard that he could go to a place where many people stayed again, but suddenly remembered that he had never been to that grandfather's house. What if someone didn't like him
Thinking of this, Beckham raised his head and asked Old Man Wang: "Grandpa Diao, you said, when we get to Hangzhou, will we be bullied?"
"Who dares to bully our family, Xiaobei, the master cannot look forward to it when he is at home, and your uncle is not up to date. He married a three-bedroom wife and gave birth to five children. None of them was a boy. OK, but not as smart as you, not even as smart as you.
All day long, I don’t play temper, or run around, and I don’t remember how many times I have been beaten. When there are people around, I have to bully people when I buy something outside. When there is no one around, I even greet someone when I meet a stranger. Won't fight.
No matter like our family, Xiaobei can go out and become an official by himself. At the beginning, a few people were sent to Sanshui County at home. Later... Later, all the subordinates of that family were driven out of the house. "
The more the old man looks at Beckham, the more he likes it. Regardless of his age, he is sensible and has a sweet mouth. When he smiles, he reveals two small dimples. Those big eyes are like her mother, who can talk.
Beckham reported the injustice for the sisters and sisters who had never met: "It's wrong to hit a child. If you don't do it well, you can teach it, right?"
"Yes, I teach, it’s not right to fight, especially for people like Xiaobei in our family. Don’t say it’s guilty to fight it and stare at it. Go back and tell the master that you are not allowed to fight in the future."
The old man continued to follow Beckham's words.
"I wasn't beaten either. My brother never beat me or let others beat me. My brother said that the incompetent people beat children. No one really bullies me? I am unfamiliar in life."
Beckham asked again.
The old man is not annoyed, he still looks like a smile on his face: "Our family's Xiaobei is an official, a third-rank officer, he is an official, the crime is serious, let alone ordinary people, has your majesty beat you? If your majesty touched you With one finger, your brother Xiaobao still has to fight his majesty."
"No, the emperor's uncle is the best. When my family gives the emperor's uncle a chair, the emperor's uncle always wants to make my house bigger and give me a place to squeeze next to him. My brother is also reasonable."
Beckham continues to maintain the essence of kindness.
Xiao Yuan said to the side: "That is because we were not bullied, otherwise my brother and sister would kill. You see, this time, let's come out with more than 1,500 people. My brother is worried that we will be bullied outside. Up."
"One thousand and five? That... that..." The old man didn't hear it right. The information he got was definitely not one thousand and five hundred people. It was also over one thousand and five. But Xiaobao put on a posture of a soldier approaching the city. Things have always happened recently.
The old man didn't say anything, but looked at Wang Qiaoer. He didn't believe that the most beloved "princess" of his family would not know.
Wang's Zhang smiled slightly and said, "I didn't tell Xiaobei and they said that since we mentioned it today, it's okay to tell them, Xiaobei, your brother and sister have dispatched all the fleet in Jilizhou, and they will stop in the lake. , If you have the slightest danger, open your posture and explode.
Your aunt and I have your younger brother or younger sister again, so I won’t accompany you to avoid being frightened. You have to be careful. In fact, it’s nothing.
No matter how dangerous it is now, it's not as scary as when you were a kid. If you can really fight in Jiangzhou, you will have a lot of knowledge. "
Beckham's nine children were stunned when they heard it.
They thought that they would clean up people in the past, Jiangzhou officials would be like a mouse meeting a cat, but they never thought that their brother and sister would transfer the fleet.
The nine children know very well that Datang’s fleet is actually based on its own family. The number of ships in their own family accounts for more than 80% of the Datang fleet. The fleet in Jilizhou is the most powerful, and is more powerful than that of Luzhou. Strong or weak, because they want to contain Silla and Japan.
The hull is large, the number is large, the speed is fast, the firing range is long, the personnel are of high quality, and the overall coordination is good. All sixty ships crossed over and lined up like mountains.
Beckham swallowed deliciously, looked nervous, and said, "Yes, going to fight? I, I haven't learned to command."
"You'll also use a tripping horse to frighten me. Can our family still lack a combat commander? Auntie, when we were young, we used to encounter more enemies?"
Xiao Yuan asked a key question.
Zhang Wang hesitated to take a look at Hu An, Hu An suddenly gave a sharp shot, gritted his teeth, and proactively said to several people in Xiaoyuan: "In the past, your family was very powerful, but it could only be in one place in Sanshui County. The people of Sanshui County did not support you like they do now.
And Huayuan County has a bit of foundation, and there is no other place. There were few people in Luzhou at that time. I wanted to support you, but I didn’t have enough energy.
At that time, it was not too difficult for someone to deal with your home. Fortunately, there was a household book and a small majesty guarding your home. Your brothers and sisters danced on the tip of the knife every time. The choice must be made to the satisfaction of others, otherwise the catastrophe will be overwhelming.
Then your brothers and sisters began to leverage their strengths to join forces, a little bit, with your current status, the southeast and northwest of Datang all have elite troops to serve your family, business in the two river basins, As well as the Datang Bank, as well as the military industry, they are all in their hands.
Otherwise, why are you so at ease? Can..."
"You can be a third-rank official at a young age, right? So that's how it is?" Xiaohai understood. He has very strong logical thinking ability and his ability to understand abstract things is not weak.
After hearing what Hu An said, I know why the family has been cultivating all kinds of talents many years ago. Political, military, economic, public relations, technical, everything is for the formation of sufficient strength. , Can contend with any forces.
Beckham blinked: "I said it was so easy for the emperor's uncle to ask for a seventh-ranking official. It turned out that it was not only because I am cute and cute, I can only be liked by others, but not respected.
Just like Grandpa Diao said, the family of the subordinate who didn't respect our family before was kicked out. Oh, it's really troublesome. It's better for the brothers and sisters in Old Liushu Village. "
Hearing what Xiaobei said, the old man from the Wang family sighed and said: "This is human nature. If your father didn't have the status of No. 1 in the entire prefecture, his natal family would not be a person. If he didn't have the status of champion, My natal family will not pay attention to it, it's all truthful.
When you were born, your family was very rich. Xiaobao and Juanjuan made a lot of arrangements in advance to wait for your birth. The current caesarean section in the hospital is actually a preparation for you at the beginning, and it turned out to be useless.
The two of them took the doctors secretly digging people’s graves and scratching their bodies with knives. It is said that on the day you were born, there was a tense atmosphere over the whole Luzhou. People in Luzhou said that they felt that if you One thing, the whole sky will fall.
So Xiaobei, don't always think that all people have only interests with you, and there is light in the dark. "
Beckham lowered her head and thought for a while. When she raised her head again, she returned to her cheerful look and said to the old man: "Grandpa Fishing, no wonder my mother is close to you. You are the best servant, besides my family, there are In the inner courtyard, no one would say this to me, but you did, Grandpa Diao.
I know, we have our own house, we can walk on the road, we can float on the water, and I also have a big pearl that acts as a racquet. Now give me one, I am reluctant to fall to the ground, but it is okay to throw it to Pan'er.
Mother, when we met Grandpa, don't mention the previous things. It's all over. When hurting others, unless you can be happy, let's forget it. "
Zhang Wangshi smiled, bent over and kissed Beckham's face vigorously, and said: "Be smarter, just catch up with your brother and sister."
"Ah? Am I not smart enough?" Xiaobei looked dissatisfied.
"If you are smart, you will not say everything. You have never seen your brother and sister when they were young. When someone is playing tricks in front of them, they can make people feel embarrassed with a smile, but what they say Give people a step down."
Zhang Wang's smile became brighter.
"Okay, I see, I have to work hard, so the small bridge in my house is not easy, right, it is actually used as a tool for swearing, and they have to collect their money."
When Beckham spoke, he had already peeled off the shrimp shells on his hands, and put his feet on his feet to feed his mother. It doesn't matter who eats the first one. Anyway, it won't be poisonous.
Hu An then said: "Yes, the bridge from Sanshui County to Zhuangzi in your home is scarier than Naihe Bridge. However, the bridge at your home is nothing but a death. But your bridge is one step of heaven and one step of hell. Taking a step forward, it seems to be stepping on your own heart.
With one foot sticking to one foot, just a few dozen steps, many people have gone through the past. The older the person, the slower the walk, but the little boy can run directly and happily. Life is so helpless. , Who can have a clear conscience? Who can Kanglong regret? "
When Hu An said this, he actually walked across the bridge, a very ordinary stone bridge without any extra decorations, it was too far away from magnificence, and it didn't touch grace.
But I don't know why, when I think of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, my heart becomes tense. I have seen with my own eyes that someone fainted on the bridge. Don't be taken away by the doctor standing there for treatment.
When you have really finished the whole journey, you have reached the place where Zhuangzi is, but you are very comfortable standing there, without love, no hatred, no regrets, because this is life, since you can’t look back, just go on firmly, not heaven, nor Hell, but in the world.
Reminiscences in the past, present in the past, I am guilty, who has never done anything wrong, but, how many people can come to judge the world? This is why the Xiaobei nine-member inspection team made the officials afraid, because they were qualified to try the officials and asked them if they were ashamed.
"Oh... I understand. I will catch an official in the future and tell him, "It's okay, take two steps." Isn't it? You are actually quite good, you are in the army, are you? Kaifeng joined the army... Coming? Xiao Yuan."
Beckham likes listening to this kind of words the most, even if sometimes he doesn't understand too much, but he can look back and think about it slowly. It is really impossible to ask his brother and sister, and then there are stories to listen to.
"Kaifeng's army is ranked 5th, from the 5th rank, but the real power of the army here is more important than joining the army in an ordinary state." Xiaoyuan has to help Xiaobei remember many things, just like a dictionary, oh, it can be one-sided. Called Erya.
"From the fifth rank? The fifth rank is too small, do you want to be promoted? I can mention the fourth rank for you and let you unify... Henan Road? No, Henan Road is too big, if you really control the military power of the entire Henan Road, Doesn't it become a Jiedu Shi? How can there be Jiedu Shi in Henan Road
The uncle the emperor said last time, let me arrange an officer to see the place and location, don’t ask for it. Then, I will also give all the rivers connected to Bianzhou, all the way to the Yellow River or the waters of the Yangtze River. How are you
You are the captain of both land and water. You can say that the fourth grade is good, but the third grade is not too much. Do you want to? "
Beckham was about to make an official for others again, and after speaking, he looked at Hu An expectantly.
But Hu An expressed excitement on his expression first, then shook his head, and replied: "No, I don’t know how to fight in the water, don’t look at me swimming, it’s not that I’m selfless, but I’m afraid of decapitation. I believe you want water. Your Majesty will agree to the command of the army.
But one day when I was required to dispatch a navy, I did not command well, and I shirked responsibility and said that the people below were disobedient and stupid. Would you agree? "
"No, I'm not stupid. The disobedience below is your business. You improperly use people. The first one to clean up is you. If the people below you are exiled, you will have to decapitate."
Beckham gave an affirmative answer.
"That's right, I don't want to die yet." Hu An looked like I was a real person.
Xiaobei nodded: "Oh... That's right, now giving you the navy is hurting you, don't give it to you, I think it's not good, Xiaoyuan, what do you say?"
"I really owe you, what you think about yourself, and then ask me, he won't, you let him learn, and it will be done after learning." Xiaoyuan just peeled a shrimp, took a small bite, and felt light. I'm looking for someone to pick up salt and pepper.
"Yes, yes, learn, we can learn, so what, Lord Hu, you follow the ship, and then find the commander on the ship to learn, don’t think that I am a merchant fleet, even if it’s a fleet in Jili State, attack me, what I am now The team can also give them a fish-dead net.
Who stipulates that merchant ships cannot be armed? Who said that merchant ships must be slow? Right? You follow all the way to learn. After you learn well, I recommend you to my sister’s military academy. It’s okay to resign now, okay? "
Beckham stomped the deck with his foot and asked Hu An's opinion.
Hu An was shaking all over at the moment, let alone the feeling in his heart, and finally understood why he came to protect Xiaobei and his party, and received so many jealous eyes.
This is an opportunity, an opportunity to reach the sky in one step. As long as you have the ability, or strong commanding ability, or serious work, even if you can't, you are calm, you are very likely to seize this opportunity, if so You still missed it, so don't blame others.
Excited, Hu An looked at Zhang Wangshi, but Zhang Wangshi turned her head away. It was not that she could not be the master, but that she was unwilling to be the master.
The old man of the Wang family said to Hu An, "Master Hu, it is our family's Beckham who is the official for you, not Qiao'er."
"Yes, yes, I am willing, I am studying, I am still young." Hu An understood, went to see Zhang Wang by himself, didn't he say in disguise that Xiaobei could not be the master? When Xiaobei became angry, the opportunity was gone. Zhang Wangshi naturally wanted to protect his children, making Beckham angry, and still expecting me to give you an official
Beckham didn't know: "That way, you learn all the way, start with the most basic, the commander of my fleet must be familiar with the work of each position.
For example, we are heading east, the wind we encounter is positive west wind, the sail speed is very fast, the ship is full of sails, you are the commander, through the telescope, we can see clearly the enemy two miles ahead, the position, the north, and us The same fleet.
You shout, lower the sail and turn the rudder to the left, and shelling on the right string. You are dead, because people go against the wind and turn the rudder to the left, with full side sails and half mainsail. Come sideways, so you have to know what our ship looks like, how fast is the steering speed, and the effective range of shelling, understand? "
Hu An nodded in amazement, shocked in his heart, didn't Beckham just not understand the command? Why can you just cite an example when talking to yourself
"Then, what should I learn first?" Hu An asked.
"Wash...a...board, place...cargo...box, tie...rope...knot, and stand against...wind..." The voice came from the side.
Hu An turned his head to look, and saw that he was a person under thirty years old, but very dark, standing straight, with a serious face, nailed there like a nail, giving the first impression of only the word "stable", and then It is rigid and mean.
"I haven't consulted..."
"The commander-in-chief of the fleet is also the captain of the flagship. From now on, you will learn from me and do what I say. I ask you to remember the splicing points of each deck wood chip and put all kinds of containers in order.
When you want to open a sailor knot, you can open it as soon as you want it to open. If you don’t want it to open, the cargo will not move with the ship, stand on the deck, the wind will not shake, the waves will not move, so you are qualified to proceed. Next study. "
When people come to talk, they are so serious and unkind.
"Okay, I'll do it." Hu An said unconvinced, and he didn't believe it. This little thing can't be done well.
…
"Report, great rejoice, little son, little lady, great joy." In the Furong Garden, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were eating a boxed lunch when someone suddenly ran in outside and shouted loudly.
Zhang Xiaobao stopped his chopsticks and said to the visitor: "It looks like you are full, and you are really confident. You say, I will eat after finishing talking."
"Report, I haven't eaten yet, I'm hungry, and I'll eat later. There is good news. The wife is pregnant again, and I am going to Hangzhou for training, Hangzhou Wang's house."
The visitor didn't care about Zhang Xiaobao's attitude at all, and said with a smile.
With a clatter, Zhang Xiaobao's chopsticks fell on the small table, staring at the incoming person, Wang Juan stopped eating, and opened his mouth slightly.
Because two people have heard clearly, the ladies, that is, they are not alone.
"Cuckoo, what a coincidence? Why are they together again?" Zhang Xiaobao asked Wang Juan.
"As the saying goes, I didn't write a book by coincidence. The question is, why did we know?" Wang Juan is more concerned about this.
"Because the team going out is also afraid of our mother. We will have a younger brother or a younger sister. I think we have to teach from scratch again. Do you think it is a good thing or... a good thing?"
Zhang Xiaobao thought of a scene of a large group of children running around.
"It's a good thing, Xiaobei and their agarwood house can be used." Wang Juan gave an affirmative answer.
