Chapter 22 Brotherhood
From emperors to people, they use mats to sit, lie down and get up. For wealthy families, there are mats made of mink fur and mats made of animal hair (felt mats). In order to prevent the horns of the mat from rolling up, the four corners of the mat are suppressed by "suppressing". Poor families can only use bamboo mats, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, all of them are spread on the ground.
The emergence of the official hat and chair will undoubtedly change people's habit of sitting and lying down. However, the emergence of new things will definitely harm the interests of some people, and there is certain resistance. Cheng Mo has no power and his family background is not prominent, so it is difficult to break the resistance.
Wu Kong is nearly ten years older than Zhang Qing. He sees the long-term and is worried immediately when he sees different ways of sitting.
What he could have thought of was that Cheng Mo had long thought of it. The chair evolved for nearly a thousand years after nearly a thousand years of evolution in the Han, Sui, Tang and Song dynasties, and took shape until the Ming Dynasty, with a time span of thousands of years. Now, there is less evolutionary process and appears thousands of years ahead of schedule and will definitely be rejected by some people. But at the same time, it is also a huge opportunity.
You can't just stop doing it just because there is resistance and rejection. This is not Cheng Mo's style.
"Mr. Wu Si said, this is a seat. Why sit on a seat? That's because no one has invented a chair. Why sit on a seat? It's because our ancestors used animal skin as their clothes. Sitting on a seat can cover their legs without silk. With the changes of the times, the appearance of chairs will definitely become a trend, and sit on a seat will become a fashion, and there is no rudeness." Cheng Mo said.
Wu Kong was a little lost. Is that true? But why did he think something was wrong?
Zhang Qing nodded repeatedly and said, "Wulang is right, who is patient and sitting every day? Every time he sits up, his legs are always numb."
Without saying anything, Wu Kong pressed him on the official hat and chair.
Cheng Mo smiled slightly. His client base was these aristocratic teenagers who were unwilling to sit down, not those old scholars who hoped that the world would remain unchanged forever.
Wu Kong was sitting there, and he didn't know where to put his hands and feet, which made Zhang Qing laugh and said, "Fourth brother, you are so funny."
No wonder Wu Kong was trained as his heir since childhood, so he was not as jealous as Zhang Qing.
Cheng Mo said: "Or one day, sitting like this is a polite behavior."
The so-called impoliteness now was a formal way of sitting in the Ming Dynasty. There was an extra chair, and the rules were different. New things could not be measured by old standards.
Seeing that Cheng Mo was confident, Wu Kong didn't say much. Although he was not used to it, he still let go of his hands and feet with the help of Zhang Qing and sat in a good manner on the official hat and chair.
"Shu Lu made a mistake and the two stores were investigated. I'll go and check it out tomorrow and buy it for Goro first." Wu Kong said.
There are so many people staring at these two stores, I wonder if I can get it. Wu Kong made up his mind that he would have to help Cheng Mo this time no matter what. Not to mention that he opened Haikou, Cheng Mo would be willing to do things seriously and should not pour cold water on him. He would have to help him with his help.
Cheng Mo thanked me.
Zhang Qing sat down on the giant chair without any hesitation and said, "Can I move this chair back first? I don't want to sit on the mat anymore."
Cheng Mo asked with a smile: "Can you report Shangguan Hua's affairs to Lingzun?"
"I said it." Zhang Qing thought he was sending a microphone, but when the message came, he didn't have anything to do. He said heartlessly: "Don't worry, my father will deal with it."
Wu Kong didn't know this, and asked the two of them that offended Shangguan Hua so much that they were shocked and said, "This is awesome!"
Who is Shangguan Hua? Behind him is Shangguan Jie, the minister who is entrusted with the orphanage. No one can compete with Shangguan Jie except Huo Guang.
After Wu Kong analyzed the pros and cons, Zhang Qing smiled and said, "Wulang, you might as well follow Miss Liu. Lord Liu is very close to General Huo. As long as General Huo is willing to say a word, what is Shangguan Hua?"
Liu Taofu was not only Emperor Zhao's confidant, but also got very close to Huo Guang. Strangely, Emperor Zhao did not alienate Liu Taofu because the two of them were close, and did not remove him.
Wu Kong's eyes narrowed, and if he had a deep meaning, he slowly said, "As we all know, Miss Liu has a special liking for you."
Although many people think that Miss Liu will only look at Cheng Mo, a gambler if she is blind, it is undeniable that Miss Liu is willing to lower her status, belittle her and accommodate her in every way, but she will not marry Cheng Mo. She speaks harshly to other men and shows her the title of the Liu family’s daughter.
"For the sake of the present, this is the only way." Wu Kongyu said earnestly. He had already advised Cheng Mo that as long as he followed Liu Siying, he would be able to rise to the top from now on, but Cheng Mo refused to say anything.
Cheng Mo shook his head like a rattle and said, "No. How can I be a man? I am a man, so how can I be condescending to serve a woman?"
For the sake of glory and wealth, he would sell himself in a big way, and he would not be able to do such a thing.
Zhang Qing held back his smile, made a sad statement, and said, "Can I not do it for my brother? Do you have the heart to see my clan be revenge by Shangguan Hua?"
Cheng Mo's eyes were firm and said, "This matter arose because of me. I will take it with all my strength and will never implicate the Twelve Langs."
He believed that there was always a way, but it was not the only way to marry Liu Siying.
Seeing that Cheng Mo was determined, Zhang Qing couldn't help it anymore, and laughed and said, "Good Goro, what a good man! I'm not wrong with you."
Liu Siying's identity was there, and many people in the Yulin Guard coveted. Zhang Qing looked down on his colleagues who did whatever they wanted to cling to the powerful and powerful. He just tried Cheng Mo. If Cheng Mo hesitated for a little, he would definitely be far away from him. Unexpectedly, Cheng Mo was very ambitious. Only such a person is worthy of making friends with him.
Cheng Mo also smiled and said proudly: "That's it."
Wu Kong looked at the two of them helplessly and said, "You really don't know how high the world is."
Can the revenge from Shangguan Jie be blocked by the side of the Earl Cheng Mo and Yijie?
Zhang Qing was so arrogant that he said, "Fourth Brother, I didn't call you, you are too brave. What are you afraid of if you are a little Shangguan Hua?"
"That's right. The soldiers come to block the generals, and the water comes to cover the soil. What are you afraid of if he will do?" Cheng Mo also said.
In fact, Cheng Mo knew that Shangguan Hua was terrible. He said this just because he didn't want his brother to worry. Things have happened, so what's the use of worrying?
Wu Kong sighed and said, "Okay, I'll take responsibility for you brother and you."
He shouldered the important task of glorifying the Marquis of Ji'an. Being able to say this shows that his brotherly relationship is strong. Cheng Mo was moved and stretched out his right hand and said, "We brothers, we have difficulties and share the blessings."
Zhang Qing first put one hand on his hand, and Wu Kong then put his hand on Zhang Qing's hand. Cheng Mo's left hand covered Wu Kong's hand again. After this, the three and six hands were tightly held together, and everyone was filled with passion.
Wu Kong said: "We all have some connections, so we may not be afraid of him."
Cheng Mo and Zhang Qing said in unison: "That's right."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, went out together, went to Cheng Mo's courtyard to discuss ways to deal with Shangguan Hua.
Zhao Yufei has already returned. Seeing that the mat was spotless, Zhang Qing praised: "Wuron is really a role model for us. You can clean up so clean if you live alone."
His dormitory was as messy as a doghouse. If there weren't four or five maids who followed him to clean up every day, there would be no one living there.
