Chapter 77 A Gift for Feng Chang's Family
After the brothers finished expressing their emotions, Luo Yan thought of Feng Chang's two children.

"Brother, where are the two nephews?" Luo Yan asked.Said he was a nephew, but in fact Luo Yan was only ten years older than these two children.Feng Chang got married very early and gave birth to a pair of twins. Although life was a bit difficult at the beginning, at least he grew up and did not die early.

These two children are now eight years old. If there is no accident, if they do not encounter a large-scale plague or other diseases, the children can still live well in Feng Chang's family.

It is sad to say that the fertility of the ancient people was very strong, but whether the child can grow up after birth is a big problem.The medical level is low, the economic situation is not good, and the pediatrics itself is very demanding, so it is difficult to find a good doctor. The result is that after encountering some difficult diseases, the child can only die in pain.

"Hiding in the side room. Their uncle has become an official, and the children are scared, haha." Feng Changshun joked with Luo Yan.

Indeed, not to mention children, even the adults outside the door just now were a little in awe of an official like Luo Yan.Although they surrounded Luo Yan and asked questions, no one dared to come within three steps of Luo Yan.If the former Luo Yan came over, it would be a good thing if this group of people didn't pull Luo Yan's sleeves and tease him.

Although children from poor families are still a little naive at the age of seven or eight, they have grown up in a complicated environment early and are always a little afraid of officials.After all, when I was young, my parents used to call some bad officials by their names to scare the disobedient ones.

Ask Feng Chang to call the two little guys in.The two little guys followed Feng Chang timidly. After entering the door, they held Feng Chang's leg and poked their heads out for a look, then quickly retracted their heads.Then he poked his head out again, looked at Luo Yan carefully, and saw that it was really the familiar Uncle Luo, so he let go of Feng Chang's thigh.

"Come on, two leather monkeys, come here and let your Uncle Luo hug you." Amused by the actions of the two little guys, Luo Yan didn't care how old he was, so he called the two little guys over, and then held the two little guys over with each hand. A child is held on his lap.

In the past six months without Luo Yan's burden, the situation of Feng Chang's family has improved a lot.The two children are not as thin as Luo Yan imagined at this time.Although the new clothes Feng Chang made for the two children during the Chinese New Year were all made of coarse cloth, they did not conceal the cleverness of the two children.

Although the two children are twins, they still look a little different.The older one is called Feng Qin, who is taller and a little darker; the younger one is called Feng Ji, who is shorter and fairer.The combination of the two brothers' names means being diligent in books. This is Feng Chang's regret for not being able to study hard when he was a child, so he pins his hope of reading on the next generation.

The two children were five years old when they started school. Although it was a year later than the normal school start time, fortunately, the two children are considered smart. In addition, whether Luo Yan came to give counseling, so there is no hindrance.According to the current progress, it is time for children to learn classics such as "The Analects of Confucius" and "The Book of Songs".

Putting down the two children, Luo Yan ordered: "Xiaoqin, Xiaoji, go and get the biggest bag on the table." On the table were all the things Luo Yan brought when he came this time.The two children naturally ran over and carried the burden with difficulty.

He signaled the two to open the bag, and the contents inside made the two children jaw-dropping in amazement, and even Feng Chang looked stupid.

What Luo Yan took out were two sets of the Twelve Classics, and they were engraved blocks after official revision.

Feng Chang's family used to live a tense life and hadn't been to the bookstore very much, but they have taken their children to visit many times in the past six months.Feng Chang naturally knew a rough idea of ​​how valuable this book was. The Analects of Confucius shared by the two children was bought by Feng Chang gritted his teeth.

The cost of woodblock printing is inherently high.Fortunately, it is a Confucian classic, and there are many people in need, so the price is naturally relatively low, but even if it is low, it is almost three to four months of expenses for a family.At this moment, Luo Yan took out two complete sets at once, and the quality of the paper was not comparable to the one he bought before.

Feng Chang has a plan to treat these two sets of books as family heirlooms.

"Brother, younger brother, I don't bring many things with me. These two sets of books are the books that Xiaoqin and Xiaoji will read next. Even when they arrive at school, what they learn cannot be separated from these twelve books. "

After a pause, Luo Yan said again: "I hope that the books that the two children go to school are copied out by themselves." Looking at Feng Chang's surprised expression, Luo Yan continued to explain: "I am in Chang'an. In the past half a year, I have met many rich children, sitting on countless books, but I can't even recite the most basic "Analects of Confucius". Is this because his family is rich and rich so he doesn't study hard? In fact, it is not the case, often these People's parents are very strict about their children and grandchildren's reading, but because these people get books too easily, they have a lazy mentality. I wasted myself."

Seeing that Feng Chang was still puzzled, Luo Yan continued to explain: "We wait for the elders, and it is necessary to create good conditions for them to study. But in the process, we must not let them feel that they should benefit from studying. Otherwise, they will be exhausted without our support in the future. What's more, there are hundreds of scholars in Chang'an City every year, and those who win the exam also chat. After reading the book, let them understand morality and etiquette, This is the most important."

After hearing Luo Yan's words, although Feng Chang still couldn't let go of the idea of ​​letting his two sons study and become officials, Luo Yan still listened to Luo Yan's suggestion.

After asking the two children to stay in their room with their books, Luo Yan talked about his affairs with Feng Chang: "Brother, now, I still have opinions and things that I need to explain clearly to my brother."

"Oh, what do you think?" Feng Chang saw Luo Yan's serious expression, so he didn't talk nonsense.

"Before this trip, I have already resigned." Regardless of Feng Chang's surprised expression, Luo Yan continued: "Now I have been involved in the vortex of seizing the heir. I have only been an official for a few months, but I can still buy a house in Chang'an with my savings. But now it seems that the situation is turbulent, and everything needs to be considered in the long term."

"Then you won't be in danger, right?" Although Feng Chang didn't know how big the risk of seizing the heir was, Feng Chang still had an impression of the unpredictable life and death in folklore.The most recent example, Feng Chang, is known to Emperor Sui Yang.

"It's nothing. Speaking of which, I'm just a pawn. Don't worry, brother. It's just that if you fail at that time, brother, you'd better be prepared to leave your hometown. The king of Hades is so easy to deal with little ghosts. What I worry about is that these local officials will fight for you when the time comes." Ingratiate yourself with the superior and cause trouble for your brother." Luo Yan told Feng Chang the worst outcome in advance.

There is really no way, Li Shimin's current situation is no different from what is written in the history books.But with people like Luo Yan appearing, there is no guarantee that the final result will not change.So Luo Yan could be regarded as leaving a way out for his elder brother.

After finishing the most important sentences, Feng Chang knew that the matter was a bit big, so he didn't say anything more, and the two sat quietly like this.

It wasn't until Feng Chang's wife brought the prepared dishes that the atmosphere became lively again.

Two children were called, and Feng Chang's wife went to the kitchen for dinner alone, leaving Luo Yan and the four of them.Although Luo Yan wanted to keep Feng Chang's wife to eat together, but after all, the custom was already like this, so Luo Yan had no choice but to give up.

Because of Luo Yan's arrival, Feng Chang's family brought out a lot of good things, such as various dried vegetables, fish, and meat. There were eight dishes in total.Even for some wealthy families, it is quite difficult to come up with eight different dishes at this time.Seeing the two children staring at some dishes on the table, Luo Yan knew that they were deliberately kept for himself, and his heart was moved again.

Signaling Feng Chang and the two children to start eating, Luo Yan also picked up his rice bowl and began to gobble it up.

Although Feng Chang's wife is not a chef, the dishes she cooks are not as exquisite as those in the big restaurants in Chang'an City.But the delicacies between the mountains and the wild can fully make up for these shortcomings.Luo Yan ate a bowl of rice with the vegetables, which only took a few words.Seeing that Luo Yan was not picky about his family's food at all, Feng Chang felt happy for a while.

It's not like Feng Chang has never seen those people who forget the past after becoming an official.There is a small official in Luzhou City. He used to be a small official, but now he is a low-level official, and his nostrils are turned upside down.He also hired a cook in the city for the meal, and he acted as if he didn't know the old people he met on weekdays.

Seeing that Luo Yan hadn't changed at all, Feng Chang was very happy.

When Luo Yan was about to finish the two bowls of rice, he was finally full at the moment, so he slowed down the pace of eating, waiting for the two little guys to slowly eat their favorite dishes.Finally, when Luo Yan had just finished eating, the two little guys put down their bowls, rubbed their bulging stomachs, and stood up to clear the table.

Seeing that there was nothing else going on at the moment, Luo Yan took out gifts for Feng Chang and his wife.

It was a set of jade wares for Feng Chang, Luo Yan really didn't know what to give.As for Feng Chang's wife, Luo Yan got a set of gold and silver jewelry.Although this kind of jewelry is not necessarily worn out, as a woman, who doesn't like to collect a few pieces by herself and enjoy them at home.

At the same time, there was 200 taels of silver for Feng Chang, which was part of Luo Yan's exchange from the system plus Li Yuan's reward.It is possible to let Feng Chang live comfortably for a few years, and Feng Chang is also a little clever, if he takes it out to start a small business, it is estimated that it will last forever.
