Maid's Survival Manual

Chapter 276 Extra Story [-]
Chen Rongjun is 15 years old this year. He has a handsome appearance and a gentle temper. He is also familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, and is skilled in bowing and horses. He is admired by his elders and admired by his peers.In my free time, I would play chess and piano with my parents, tease my younger sister Qiaoer, and occasionally when the weather was warm, my father would take the family on a trip to the mountains and rivers, and the life was extremely pleasant.

He almost forgot his rough childhood.From birth, he was given to his fourth uncle and aunt in the family by his father as adopted sons. He didn't return to his mother until he was two years old. However, his biological father and mother were not together, so they could only see each other occasionally.

It wasn't until he was almost ten years old that the family reunited and moved away from the capital to a bustling town with beautiful mountains and rivers.

Although he didn't say anything, there was always a shadow in his heart, that is, he was afraid that one day he would be sent away by his parents again.Even though Mother swore she would not leave him unless she died the first time she saw him, Chen Rongjun was still worried.

It's not that he doesn't trust his mother.

My mother never lied to him. If she had promised him, she would have done it ten percent of the time, but basically it was almost the same. If she couldn't do it, no matter how much he begged her, she would never agree.

But recently Chen Rongjun always felt an ominous premonition lingering in his heart.It's not that he's sensitive, it's that the atmosphere is really weird.He hates people saying that he is sensitive, because his father said more than once, big men are always petty, what are you thinking about?Only women are always hurting spring and autumn, sensitive and thoughtful.

When Dad said this, his face was full of disdain and mockery, and he stared at him with burning eyes, as if he meant something.At that time, Chen Rongjun blushed with anger, and said with a thick neck: "I'm not sensitive."

Therefore, Chen Rongjun could only pretend that nothing had happened, without revealing anything on his face, what to do, only trying to figure out his parents' expressions and tone of voice in private.

Qiao'er is over five years old this year. In the words of her parents, her temperament followed her mother's, calm, calm, and cool, but Qiao'er's temperament followed her father's, elf, tricky, and clever, which often gave her mother a headache.

She saw that her brother had something on her mind recently, so she grabbed him and asked, "Brother, I've seen you absent-minded recently. What are you thinking? Tell me, okay?"

Chen Rongjun said dumbfoundedly: "You know how to use idioms." Qiao'er doesn't like reading, and she doesn't like being a female celebrity, so she invites her husband, and she either shaves his beard, or adds extra spices to his tea, The man who played tricks was angry, hated and helpless, so he resigned from the library within a few days, and my mother beat her hands frequently.Therefore, Chen Rongjun is both gratified and happy to hear that she can use idioms in her young adult appearance.

Qiao'er snorted and said, "It's so hard to know how to use idioms. I just don't like to use them. If you like to listen, I'll say hundreds of sentences a day. You'll be bored to death. Already, a blockbuster..."

Chen Rongjun let her make trouble, just laughed and said nothing.

Qiao'er quickly embraced the topic, and said: "Brother, you should tell me, maybe I can say something nice for you in front of Dad." Well, Dad loves Qiao'er the most. She said a few words of affection and kept her father buying it.

But who is Chen Rongjun?Xiumei raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a smile: "You can say something nice in front of father, but it depends on what the matter is, but if it involves mother, you will only be beaten."

Qiaoer's face was flushed with anger, she covered her cheeks with her hands, and said bitterly: "Chen Rongjun, you will die if you don't talk? I don't care about you, if you like to talk or not, if it's not for you, you will go far away. For the sake of not knowing how many years it will take to come back, I am lazy to talk to you."

She jumped off the chair and was about to leave, but Chen Rongjun rushed up and hugged her back, and said in shock, "Qiaoer, what did you just say? How do you know I'm going away? Where are you going?"

Qiao'er snapped Chen Rongjun's fingers and said, "Smelly stone, cold stone, I won't tell you."

Chen Rongjun had no choice but to coax her: "Don't you like egg tarts? I'll give you my share today, okay? It's my elder brother's apology for you." Both siblings love sweets, so it's up to dad, but Qiaoer is If she wanted to change her teeth, Mother would not allow her to eat more, so she looked at Chen Rongjun eagerly. Hearing that he was so generous, Qiaoer immediately turned against him, sat down again, dangling her two calves, and said leisurely: "I just heard what Daddy said. Yes, he said that when he was your age, he already had fame and fame, but you are still like a young master, stretching out your hands for clothes and opening your mouth for food, so I want you to go to the capital by yourself."

Chen Rongjun was a little dazed.

In fact, when it comes to his father's past, he doesn't know much, because in this family, the past is rarely mentioned, but when he was in the capital, he had already remembered it. He was indeed very dignified, and the people around him were not allowed to kowtow and salute when they saw his father, saying "My lord", at that time, his father was only in his early twenties.

It is true that when he was his age, his father was already ranked second in high school, but he is still penniless now, at best he is only a primary school boy, and he really dare not brag about anything other than shaking his head and reciting a few articles.

Although his parents were not too demanding on him and never forced him to be an official butcher, but in this comparison, he is really not as good as his father.It really made him leave the house... He was really a little empty.

Qiao'er pursed her lips and said: "Mother is not happy, but Dad said, you are not young anymore, you can't expect your parents to promise you a kiss, if you want to find it, go outside and find someone you like. Brother, what do you mean by kissing?"

Chen Rongjun couldn't laugh or cry at Qiaoer's words, so he said vaguely: "I don't know either."

Qiao'er snorted and said, "Stupid, I know all about it, but you're still fooling me? Did you just ask you to call me a sister-in-law?"

Chen Rongjun hurriedly covered Qiao'er's mouth, and said threateningly: "You little girl, you keep talking about these words all day long, be careful if your mother hears and hits your palm, I won't protect you then."

Qiao'er stuck out her tongue, thinking of the pain when her mother slapped her palm with a straight face, she had to shut up obediently.

Chen Rongjun had some ideas in his mind, and after thinking about it in private for a long time, he thought to himself: I am a dignified man after all, reading thousands of books is worse than traveling thousands of miles, I really should go out and make a living, instead of waiting for my father to speak, I would rather invite Ying on my own initiative.

With his mind set, he went to find Chen Yunzheng and explained his purpose.

Chen Yunzheng naturally had no objection, and said: "Your mother said, what she hopes for in your life is health, happiness, and peace. But after all, you are a man, not to mention ambitions. In the future, you will have to start a family and have a career of your own. Fanying is the only way to make a living. Whether it is literary or martial arts, you can think about it yourself. If you want to start a business, you can go to your uncle Baishu. He is in the capital. For the imperial examination, you can go to your uncle and let him get a letter of recommendation from the clan..."

Chen Rongjun hadn't heard much about the affairs of the family in the clan for so many years, because his family had little contact with people from his hometown.When Leng Ding mentioned this uncle, he was a little startled.

Chen Yunzheng glanced at him, and said with a joking smile: "You are not young anymore, it is better to hit the sun than to choose a day, so I will tell you about the family affairs. Your father and I are considered dead in the clan, and died in the line of duty five years ago. , was conferred by the current Holy Majesty the vain position of a loyal servant, but a few years of salary, but it cannot be hereditary. There are two hidden quotas, which were given to your uncle and the two elder brothers of the third uncle's family, so when it comes to you Now, if you want fame, you have to fight for it yourself..."

Until now, Chen Rongjun has a clear understanding of the past of his parents, and he didn't know what to think for a while.I sighed at my father's obsession and infatuation, and at the difficulty of my parents, at the same time, I developed some admiration for my father.

This also strengthened his determination to go out and make a living.

As soon as he said he would leave, Chen Yunzheng didn't intend to argue with his son. Seeing his firm face, he also knew that he must still be hesitating in his heart. This kind of temperament is typical of following Manman, and he didn't speak strictly, just beat him and said: "I've opened up all the words. You can think about the rest on your own. It's a lot of trouble. I usually take you with me when I go out. You booked the itinerary and packed your own luggage."

This is the rhythm of going out.

Chen Rongjun didn't dare to talk nonsense, and said, "Yes."

He went to see his mother.Manman put down her work, glanced at him, and asked, "Are you unwilling?" From what she meant, it seemed that if he was unwilling, she would persuade her father not to let her go out.Chen Rongjun hurriedly said: "This is originally the son's intention, and the father is just following the son's intention."

At any rate, he is a man, and his back-and-forth not only annoys his father, but also makes him feel ashamed.What's so scary about the outside world?If you beat yourself up, you can gain more experience.

Seeing the sincerity of what he said, Manman nodded and said: "Although I don't ask you to have any fame and wealth, I also don't want you to be a weak seedling raised in a greenhouse. You are different from Qiao'er. To take up the responsibilities and burdens of the family, it is the best thing to go out and see more.”

This is consent.Chen Rongjun couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, and when he raised his eyes, he saw tears in Manman's eyes, and he was shocked: "Mother?" Mother is reluctant, right?

Manman just smiled softly and said: "It's nothing, the little bird doesn't want to learn to fly, and the old bird still has to push it away, not to mention that it's a good thing for you to have your own ideas when you grow up, even if you don't want to , and it won’t block your way.” She stared at her eyes and thought for a while and said, “Since you want to travel far, you must have a plan in your heart. The Venerable Master, how to communicate with each other, what kind of standards should be set, you have to decide in your own heart, you can’t just believe what others say, but you can’t be completely on guard against people, there is no trust at all..."

Chen Rongjun listened with his head bowed, his heart full of melancholy.Even though the parents were reluctant for him to go out, they were still very pleased that he was willing to go out to make a living.After all, he is a man.Moreover, he has never traveled far by himself, but according to his parents, he has to take care of everything by himself. Are they really relieved?
