11 Marriage

When he heard his old man say that he would get 500 taels for 1,200 taels, Wei Wencai said in surprise: "What? They will eat the 700 silver for the money?

In the past, I could get 50%, and I should have given 600 taels of silver.

And the armor was eaten by them?"

"What do you think? Otherwise, why do I expect you to be a civil servant when you can make a name for yourself and get back from a good exam."

Mr. Wei said leisurely: "In Zhenjiang, commander and third-rank military officers must give great gifts to the doctor of the Nanjing Ministry of War, just a fifth-rank official.

When I heard people talk about it, I thought it was spreading rumors, but I didn’t expect it to be true.

Even the sixth-rank chief officer can shy his face to the commander, and the general is really out of face."

"It seems that you often see the commander. Tell me, have you ever met the commander of our Jiujiang Guard before?"

Wei Wu seemed to deliberately sabotage Dad Wei, and said it directly.

"Yes, yes, we are at a low level, and I haven't seen it before."

Dad Wei didn't want to talk to his wife about this, so he just said perfunctory words.

"By the way, where is the silver?"

Wei Wencai also realized that something was wrong now, as if he had not grasped the point, and that five hundred taels of silver was the most important thing.

"Do you think I can eat this money alone?"

Dad Wei gave his son a blank look, "Didn't you know if you would go north to fight? In order to stabilize the morale of the army, I gave each person two taels of silver, and gave you Uncle Li and the others another 100 taels, but I still have 200 taels left here.

I heard from your uncle that I guess the military pay will not be given again this year. Even if there is one, 80% will be deducted by the superiors."

"What's the matter? The money to be opened has turned into money."

Wei Wencai immediately became unhappy when he heard about this section.

"Okay, that's pretty good. Go out and ask, are the people below who are willing to ask for money or go to war."

Dad Wei said angrily, but then he immediately changed his face and looked at Wei Guangde, "Son, look, those civil servants do nothing and earn money. Think about it yourself.

If it weren't for this luck, think about it, the little money you earned by fighting hard and hard was not as good as others, would you be convinced?"

Having said that, Dad Wei said to himself without waiting for Wei Guangde to answer: "As long as you pass the exam, even if you are a scholar, when your brothers separate, Dad will buy you dozens of acres of land.

But if you fail to get a good exam, you can only stay in the Hundred Houses Institute and help your brother, be a big soldier, and at most the general flag is the general flag. It depends on your performance.”

Wei Guangde nodded slightly when he heard this. He didn't think that those dozens of acres of land were so good.

In fact, after he came through, he thought about it. If he stayed in the army, he would definitely not have a chance to make a comeback.

If you want to make a name for yourself, you can only use your life to make a fortune. The risk is too great.

In the past, Wei Guangde couldn't bear this hardship, so he watched his brother practice martial arts with those servants.

Of course, Xiao Wei Guangde didn't practice anything. There were two horses in the Hundred Houses, all of which were old war horses. They were used to be assigned to them.

Before, Xiao Wei Guangde often rode out with his brother on one horse and one horse.

But the horsepower is not enough, so I can't sprint. Wei Guangde feels that his riding skills can only be average and not good.

Moreover, he has never learned the ability to fight immediately, and he has not practiced the people on the ground.

In fact, at that time, Xiao Wei Guangde thought that riding a horse was fun, and he didn't practice riding any tricks at all.

The test for fame and honor is also Wei Guangde’s only way out now.

If it were himself in his previous life, Wei Guangde would definitely not dare to think about it. He should be willing to choose to attack his brother.

However, after inheriting this body, Wei Guangde found that his predecessor's memory was really not overwhelming. He could memorize the knowledge and complicated articles that Mr. Sun talked about after reading them a few times. Of course, if you want to be fluent, just read them twice more.

With such a good memory, he chose to focus on the imperial examination after giving up his plan to rebel.

Just kneel down. This is the case in this era. The emperor must kneel down to Huang Tianhoutu and his parents and ancestors.

If you want to live a good life, you must become an official. If you want to become an official, you must learn to kneel down, at least before you become a great official.

However, Wei Guangde now doesn’t even have the qualifications to kneel down. He is still a child and has not even passed the boy exam, so he doesn’t know what to take.

Seeing his words make his second son think, he knew that he had listened to what he said. Dad Wei didn't plan to continue to say anything more, but turned the topic to his eldest son again, but this time he said it to his wife Wei Wu.

"By the way, on the way back this time, I told my brother-in-law and asked him to help me see if there is a suitable family. I plan to do the Wencai business."

"Whose family belongs to? Did he say that?"

Wei Wu was energetic now. She just pricked up her ears and listened to the previous words, and she didn't need to say anything more.

But now, her own man is talking about her son’s marriage, so she must be the one who is a mother.

"Brother-in-law means that the two families are more suitable. They have daughters of appropriate age at home. The best one is Li Qiguang's family, who can have someone in the commander's yamen and speak, so this position will be stable in the future."

Dad Wei said while touching his beard again.

But at this moment, Wei Wencai, who was more generous, became shy and his face turned red.

When Wei Guangde's parents talked about his elder brother's marriage, he had already come to his senses and stared at his elder brother's place. He immediately noticed his elder brother's strangeness. However, now it's not the time to joke, he just listens honestly.

"It's good, I'm afraid that others will not want to do so. The commander is a fourth-rank official, and which girl is there in the other family?"

Wei Wu just frowned at this moment, feeling that the family that was talking about was good, but the family was a little higher.

"Liu's family is from Qianhu. He also has a daughter. According to your brother's words, he looks good and is the most suitable one for the boss."

Dad Wei also gave the answer immediately.

To be honest, although their family has a hereditary 100 household title, it doesn’t matter if it’s a little money in this world. It’s really difficult to get Wei Wencai to take over the 100 households’ waist-high cards from him.

He clearly remembered that he could get his official position back, but the old man made great efforts, namely Wei Guangde's grandfather.

On the battlefield, Wei Guangde's grandfather saved his grandfather's life. After the rebellion was quelled, the Wu family did not treat their old Wei family badly. They got married and took back the position of the Hundred Houses of Bengshan after Wei Meng became an adult.
