Chapter 1 The Daily Life of Young Yang Jie
However, there is an endless vast world between the endless Hongmeng Universe. After countless years of change, this world was broken due to a major change. The largest and richest part of the world is called Middle Earth God Island, and a small and very barren land in the southeast, west and northeast are called Four Wastelands. There are countless islands, such as stars, distributed on the vast sea surrounding the land.
Since awakening wisdom from ignorance, the human race has worked hard to govern in countless disasters and hardships. Not only has the blessing of the heavenly way, but also countless sages such as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors emerged one after another, gradually becoming the protagonist of this world, enjoying boundless luck.
At this time, the 30th monarch of the Shang Dynasty, Emperor Yi was in power. He had a residence of a great minister in Chaoge, the capital city, but it was the private residence of Yang Lie, the general of the dynasty. Five years ago, Yang Lie followed the Grand Tutor to the west to go out to the Five Passes to expedition the Guifang. Only his wife who had been pregnant for several months and three young sons were left in the mansion. Mrs. Yang gave birth to a daughter a few months later, but because of her postpartum weakness and concern for her husband on the battlefield, she was entangled in her sickbed and left four children in less than a year.
Yang Lie's parents died early, and there were no brothers and sisters in the family, and there was no concubine except this lady. When Mrs. Yang went there, there was no one in charge of the huge Yang Mansion at that time.
Fortunately, although Yang Jie, the eldest son of the Yang family, was born to be resolute and steadfast. After receiving his mother's death will, he took over the Yang family at the age of seven. He first held a funeral for his mother, and tried his best to raise and teach his three young brothers and sisters, and actually took care of everything in an orderly manner.
This incident was a beautiful story in Chaoge at that time, and even Emperor Yi in the deep palace heard about it. He also sent an imperial official to announce an edict to Yang Jie and his sister to comfort Yang Jie.
This day was the second day of the second month in the spring of the 20th year of Emperor Yi. Yang Jie sat upright under the eaves of the main hall of the Yang Mansion. Twenty-four men and women in charge of various affairs inside and outside the mansion stood neatly in the yard.
Now Yang Jie is just twelve years old, but his body is as strong as a 15 or 16-year-old boy. He has a face like a jade, a sword-brow, a starry-eyed look, a golden crown on his head, a brocade robe, and a black cloak. He was originally the son of a general, and he has been in charge of the power of the mansion for more than two years, and his body has naturally developed a sense of dignity. Before he spoke, all the officials below stood up in a breath and held their breath, and no one dared to speak or move.
"The ranch manager comes forward!" Yang Jie suddenly called out.
Among the officials, a sturdy middle-aged man with a sturdy and frosty face hurriedly came out and bowed to the top, saying, "Yang Yi, the manager of the villain ranch, wait for the eldest son's orders."
Yang Jie said lightly: "I read the accounts you reported last month and said that the food in the 'Chimang Cattle' in my Yang family ranch has decreased. Has the reason been found?"
Yang Yi replied with some shame: "Young Master, the food of Chimang cattle in the past was added to their favorite 'Yanxincao'. Last month, the person who was responsible for purchasing the forage was greedy for alcohol and misleading the matter, and the forage was not transported to the pasture in time. Because of the lack of Yanxincao, Chimang cattle ate less."
Yang Jie said in a deep voice: "The Chimang Niu is the foundation of my Yang family's 'heavy cavalry', and it is impossible to be careless. Later, you ordered the person who misunderstood to receive ten python whips in the punishment room. You are also responsible for poor supervision, so I will confiscate you a month's money. You must be careful in the future and you must not have any trouble!"
Yang Yi was punished and felt relieved. He knew that his eldest son had always been a military ruler. This time his fault was not big or small, but the punishment for confiscating a month's regular money was really not serious. He immediately bowed again: "The villain is willing to receive the punishment, and remember the teachings of the eldest son."
Yang Jie waved his hand and ordered Yang Yi to retreat, and randomly called the officials below to come forward in turn. Each of them made a clear analysis and judgment based on their merits and demerits, and the analysis and judgment were clearly organized, without any ambiguity. In less than half an hour, a lot of trivial and complicated internal and external affairs were clearly prepared.
After everyone stepped down, Yang Jie raised his hands and pressed his left and right temples with two thumbs to gently massage it, as if he had a headache.
"Miss, slowed down and fell down carefully!" At this moment, a noise came from the cross-yard next to her, with the cries of several women in the middle.
Yang Jie put down his hands and turned his head to look in the sound. He saw a calf that was less than four feet tall and was covered with fiery red short hair from a small door on the right courtyard wall. On the back of the calf, a small man was riding and driving. It was a little girl who was wearing a colorful brocade jacket and a tiger-headed hat. Her little baby-fat face was full of a happy smile.
Behind the calf and the little girl, there were five or six maids and mothers chasing with a fussy look on their faces. However, although the calf was small, its four hooves were running like the wind. How could they catch up?
Seeing the little girl with her arms wide open to her from a distance on the cow's back, Yang Jie also had a doting smile from the bottom of his heart, and he stood up from the seat to greet him.
When the calf ran about two feet away from Yang Jie, the little girl suddenly raised her hand and patted her head gently. The calf hummed in her nose, her front legs were steadily stuck to the ground like two nails, and her hind legs supported the ground and pushed upwards. The little girl on the cow's back was immediately thrown high, and accompanied by the screams from the maids and mothers behind her, she drew an arc in the air and flew towards Yang Jie opposite.
The little girl was in the air, but there was no trace of fear and panic. Instead, she clapped her hands and giggled.
Yang Jie shook his head and smiled bitterly, spread his arms and steadily took the little girl into his arms. He waved his hand to stop the maids and mothers who were so scared that they were chasing over, then stretched out a finger and gently shaved her small nose, and shouted in a low voice: "Xiao Yan'er, why are you so nonsense again? If you do such a dangerous thing again, your brother will take back the little fire you gave to you."
This little girl is not someone else, but Yang Jie's young girl Yang Yan, who is less than five years old this year. The calf is a "Chirang Cow" tamed by the Yang Family Ranch. Not long ago, Yang Jie went to the ranch to select this particularly spiritual Red Cow cub to give her a gift.
Seeing that the eldest brother seemed angry, Yang Yan was not afraid. Her black eyes rolled for a few rounds and said angrily: "Brother, don't be angry. Yan'er just now had something to tell her, so she was a little anxious."
Yang Jie frowned and asked, "What's the matter so anxious about you, your little one?"
Yang Yan smiled: "I just eavesdropped on my second and third brothers' words. They seemed to sneak out and fight with someone!"
