Chapter 199: Hundred Generations of Wealth

In the season when the crow wind steams, even though the sun has set, the summer heat by the sea is still humid and suffocating.

In the courtyard of Caiyang Auntie's house in Youyu Ward, Pingyang Town.

Zhang Gui's best little partner is sitting on his favorite stone pier, eating his favorite shrimp paste mixed noodles.

Caiyang Duojie, who had just closed the shop and returned home, looked at the little boy he cared about most besides his own biological son, and said lovingly:

"Jiang Wazi, why are you so hungry today? Even if grain is scarce outside, can it be scarce for a big scholar like you?

Don't tell me you were treated harshly by someone.

If so, tell Auntie, and I will go and slap their face into a flower."

"Auntie, don't guess blindly. My cousin is now the dignified Censor-in-Chief of Dongyue Province.

Now in the entire Pingyang Zhang family, only he is valued more than Da Gui, who would dare to treat me harshly.

It's just that the weather is stuffy, and I can't eat the food made by others.

Just now, smelling the seafood sauce vegetable noodles you made, I remembered fighting with Da Gui to dig shrimp paste to eat when I was a child, which hooked my gluttony."

"Is that so? At that time, you two 'half-grown boys eating the old mother poor' gluttons really didn't pick anything.

You dug up such salty aged sauce paste and stuffed it into your mouths, not afraid of becoming 'Night Demon Tigers'."

"Auntie, I wasn't afraid of salt and could eat salt since I was a child.

You also always told me that eating salt makes you grow strong."

"You child really can argue.

Even if you grow strong, eating salt as a meal will hurt your body.

Qiedan sister, bring a bowl of noodle soup."

"Yes, sister-in-law." Zhang Gui's little aunt Qiedan Sangjia responded loudly in the kitchen.

She had four daughters, but unfortunately, the two older ones had already died young, fortunately, the remaining third and fourth had always been healthy and were now in their prime.

At this time, the mother had to be extra worried, looking for the best-known golden turtle son-in-law for her daughter.

Qiedan Sangjia was naturally no exception.

Thinking blindly about Zhang San today and Li Si tomorrow.

Originally, she didn't dare to hope for a scholar like Zhang Jiujiang.

But as her nephew continued to rise, she now felt it was worth a try.

It is the so-called "cast a wide net and catch fish slowly."

So Qiedan Sangjia worked quickly with both hands, using two big ladles to flip back and forth, and soon cooled a large bowl of noodle soup.

She called her third daughter, "Tongwa, I still have to burn the pot, you take the soup to Jiang Gongzi."

Caiyang Tongwa had a baby face, and last year she looked like a little girl holding a carp and playing in a New Year picture, festive and cute.

But the saying goes, "A girl changes eighteen times, becoming more beautiful each time."

In just a few months, her face opened up, and her original "cuteness" turned into "lovable."

Unknowingly, there began to be many young men's smiling faces around her.

It's a pity that unlike the fourth Caiyang Hualin, who has been beautiful since childhood in Zhang Gui's eldest aunt's house, Caiyang Tongwa was stupid and cute and never noticed.

She was still as shy and honest as ever, listening to her elders.

Called into the kitchen by her mother, she lowered her head, took the noodle soup with both hands, and sent it to the courtyard.

"Thank you, sister, for sending the noodle soup."

Green onion age, great man.

Even if he was in his best friend's house, facing his best friend's sister, he absolutely was not allowed to have other thoughts, and he had to show his handsome, gentle, and polite side.

He also had to use his sunny smile and cultivation to silently show the girl,

"Although I am your brother's best companion, I am completely different from his despicable, filthy, and unkempt nature.

I belong to the type who is full of charm and polite to the opposite sex."

So Zhang Jiujiang stood up and smiled heartily, taking the noodle soup from Caiyang Tongwa's hand.

When he saw the girl's vaguely familiar but extremely beautiful face, his heart trembled inexplicably, and the noodle soup in his hand almost spilled out.

Just then, a noisy voice sounded on the wall,

"Zhang Jiujiang, you are not hooked by gluttony, you are clearly a dove occupying a magpie's nest, wanting to usurp my Zhang Gui's status as the 'good big son' in the family.

Eating the noodles my mother made; sitting on the pier I like most when eating noodles;

Drinking the noodle soup my aunt served and my cousin sent, how comfortable you are."

"Da Gui, you are finally back!"

Zhang Jiujiang completely ignored the noodle soup, strode to the feet of his little partner, raised his head and said:

"You are already a vassal state heir apparent comparable to the first rank, how come the higher you are promoted, the more down-to-earth you become.

Climbing over your own wall."

"I saw that a wooden wall was built outside the town, and I didn't want to bother reporting, so I just flew over the eaves and walked over the walls.

It's you, why did you run back to Pingyang Town not for the New Year or a festival.

And came to my house to catch the whereabouts of this heir apparent, did you grow skills, can you calculate?"

Zhang Gui jumped off the wall, smiled and patted his little partner's shoulder.

Then he ran to Amu to act like a spoiled child, and then greeted his aunt and cousins.

This time he officially gathered with Zhang Jiujiang, sitting on the stone pier, blowing the warm sea breeze.

Eating well-water watermelon, chatting.

"You kid is really lucky, although you only have one old mother who loves you, you can compare to my ten parents, but you can always act pitiful in front of me since you were a child.

How unfair Heaven is!"

"Alright, Aunt Suzi and Uncle Bade also love you very much, okay, it's just that I am a widow and an orphan, so it's inevitable to be spoiled.

In your family, Uncle Bade has ambition and wants to cultivate you into talent, so that you don't have to work hard to do business like him in the future.

Aunt Suzi is superficially opinionated, but actually listens to Uncle Bade's nature in big things.

Plus that 'other people's child' good cousin who has lived in your house since childhood.

Life will be a bit unsatisfactory.

Don't make things difficult for yourself anymore.

By the way, speaking of your good cousin, he is really becoming more and more 'deep.'

Taking office as Censor-in-Chief of Dongyue is just in time."

"Your mouth is also becoming more 'deep,' truly able to speak and draw good cakes.

Now being a barbarian heir apparent, gathering commoners by sprinkling chicken blood and feeding chicken soup, fighting for hegemony is also just in time."

The little partner's joke actually broke Zhang Gui's plot for several years.

Making him slightly stunned, clapping and laughing,

"Truly know me Jiujiang!

If I achieve great things in the future, the prince belongs to the feudal remnants and we won't promote it, but ensuring your hundred generations of wealth can still be done.

Not one generation more, not one generation less.

It is from you Zhang Jiujiang, the descendants born will be like my own children..."

"You bear child are taking advantage of your brother again, shut up."

Zhang Jiujiang said angrily, stuffing a piece of watermelon into his little partner's mouth and stirring it a few times.

Zhang Gui smiled and said:

"Just now seeing you looking at my cousin Tongwa, your head was lacking blood.

I am only one generation away from her in blood inheritance, if you two really have a result, hey, Zhang Jiujiang, you grandson, why don't you make trouble with me, but blush instead..."

The brothers laughed and made trouble again, suddenly Zhang Jiujiang said,

"Da Gui, I want to go to Yuanshan."
