Chapter 1031: The Past
Wei Ling and his friends went to drink flower wine, Wei Tianwu naturally wanted to stay and accompany Zhang Nan to eat, after three rounds of wine and five flavors, Wei Tianwu was also a little drunk, so he simply left his seat directly, slipped a wine bottle to Zhang Nan's side, put his arm around Zhang Nan's shoulders and said with a good look of brothers: "Qingquan, I'm a little older than you, so you can call it that." ”
Zhang Nan looked at Wei Tianwu's red face like a monkey's buttocks, and naturally saw that Wei Tianwu was drunk, so he smiled and said, "Of course you can." ”
"Hey, Qingquan, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I was really bitter back then, since Wei Ling and her mother left, although I have stepped into the court, but in my heart, it's not a taste."
When Zhang Nan saw Wei Tianwu say this, he knew that Wei Tianwu was going to spit out the truth after drinking.
"Although I am now the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, but my home, where is it still a home, as soon as I come back, the house is deserted, and my son doesn't listen to me, I don't know how to tell him, I, the father, can only use the identity of the father to scare him." Wei Tianwu shouted by pulling his neck.
Zhang Nan was also indifferent after hearing this, this problem is not only Wei Tianwu, as long as the method used to educate children when they are young is not appropriate, it is easy for this situation to occur.
"I've been an official for so many years, and not many people persuade me to continue the string, but I've seen so many women, and I always feel that they can't compare to my chubby dead wife." Wei Tianwu said that his eyes were also slightly red, and it seemed that his true feelings were revealed.
"I still remember when I just married her into the door, I was still a little unhappy, I always felt that I was going to do great things in the future, why should this husband have no wife? What's more, she is still so ugly? I think she is not worthy of me, although my family is poor, but I still know a few words, what about her? Dou Da doesn't know a single word, I always feel that she is not worthy of me. Wei Tianwu said, and poured himself a sip of wine again, drank a little anxiously, and choked himself, Zhang Nan had to hurry up to give Wei Tianwu a smooth breath.
"After marrying her, I knew that I had married a virtuous wife, at that time Wei Ling was not born, there were only two of us in the family, at that time, the family was poor, I was not afraid of An Guogong's jokes, it was really not easy to eat a full meal, I was determined to gain fame, I didn't do farm work, and I didn't want to go out to do small business, I always felt that this time I lost face as a scholar."
Hearing Wei Tianwu say this, Zhang Nan said that he can also understand, first of all, the problem of hunger, not having enough to eat is a common thing for ordinary people, especially when natural disasters occur, the harvest is not good, even if you have money, you may be hungry, not to mention ordinary people?
If the problem of food was really so easy to solve, there would not have been so many uprisings in ancient times, and the most fundamental reason for the uprisings was because the people really couldn't survive, so they had to do this.
As for Wei Tianwu saying that he was embarrassed to go out to do business to subsidize his family, it would be easier to understand, after all, scholars were very noble in ancient times, and they were all pretentious, presumably Wei Tianwu was such a person.
"But my deceased wife didn't complain a word, and on weekdays, the food in the family was eaten by me first, and when she didn't eat, she went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and make wild vegetable dumplings to eat by herself with a vegetable basket on her back. When she really had no money, she had to do some needlework outside to subsidize the family. Wei Tianwu continued.
"Qingquan, look at this table full of good wine and good food, which one is not better than the original wild vegetable dumplings? But after so many years, it is easy for me to eat these things, and I want to eat another bite of the wild vegetable dumplings she made herself, but I can't eat them anymore. Wei Tianwu said while holding the dish in front of him with chopsticks.
"You have a good wife." After Zhang Nan heard this, he also said, indeed, there are really not many such women, of course, this is also from Zhang Nan's modern eyes.
The sentence "Husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes" Zhang Nan has seen too much.
"Once the family has rich money, my wife will buy me paper and ink, although she can't read a word, but she wholeheartedly supports me to study, but she, Fu Qian, after giving birth to Wei Ling, she died, I just hate that I didn't get a fame earlier, so that she could enjoy happiness earlier." Speaking of this, Wei Tianwu hammered his head fiercely, as if to show that he was really too angry.
"After I became the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, I didn't think about marrying another one, but every time I think of my dead wife who even gave me food, I can't bear it, and I always feel that if I marry another one, I am really sorry for her." Wei Tianwu Dao.
Zhang Nan didn't know what to say after hearing this, he didn't know whether to say that Wei Tianwu was affectionate and righteous, or whether to say that Wei Tianwu was stupid, so Zhang Nan could only choose to remain silent.
"I used to always think, when can I settle Wei Ling's marriage, even if I can explain it in my life, even if I can go down to Jiuquan to reunite with Wei Ling and his mother, I will be able to be worthy of her."
"Well, now that I have achieved my goal for the rest of my life, I am really comfortable in my heart." As he spoke, Wei Tianwu patted the position of his heart, but Zhang Nan saw Wei Tianwu's red eyes.
"Why should Master Wei think about it? This person has a clear conscience, you can have today's achievements, presumably it is inseparable from Mrs. Ling's contributions, but on the other hand, Lord Wei is now sitting in this position, which can be regarded as the right Mrs. Ling's hard work back then, and now that the child's marriage has been decided, Lord Wei, you are both a father and a mother, and you can be regarded as able to retire successfully. Zhang Nan said with relief.
Hearing Zhang Nan say this, Wei Tianwu also wiped the corners of his eyes quietly, and then said: "Yes, Qingquan is right, now the Wei family can be like this, even if I die, I can be worthy of my deceased wife, come on, drink, Qingquan, didn't you say that neither of us has drunk for so many years?" It's good to make up for it today. ”
After Wei Tianwu finished speaking, he was poured his own wine again, Zhang Nan could only smile bitterly after reading it, and then picked up the wine glass and accompanied Wei Tianwu to drink.
When you drink a meal of wine, you can drink it until it is almost curfew, and the wine is very strange, when you want to buy drunk, it doesn't take a few glasses to drink you properly, and now Wei Tianwu who is lying under the table is a good proof.
