"Really?"
Du Ruhui was excited.
He was already very old this year.
Although he had worked hard and the Emperor had never mistreated him, he was still somewhat dissatisfied. He hadn't done anything spectacular.
The more time he spent with Zhang Feng, and the more he was influenced by Zhang Feng's calligraphy at home, the more Du Ruhui wanted to create something that could be passed down.
He didn't know what this thing was.
But he had this impulse.
Not only him, but everyone who had interacted with Zhang Feng was also like this.
Not to mention anything else, just the things that Zhang Feng had said and done, which one of them wasn't enough to shake the heavens and shake the earth?
At this moment, seeing Zhang Feng like this, he couldn't help but tear up.
Although Du Gou was also very hardworking, the father knew better.
Du Gou and the others were destined to help the Crown Prince ascend the throne and become important members of the next generation's leadership. But he also knew that Du Gou's temperament greatly disappointed the Crown Prince and the others.
There was no other reason than that Du Gou was too serious.
Moreover, he was a stubborn person.
He couldn't compare to Wei Zheng.
Li Chengqian couldn't compare to Li Shimin either. Who knew if the Du family would be able to flourish under Du Gou's leadership once these old fellows were no longer around?
But ever since he learned that Zhang Feng had passed down something different to each of them, Du Ruhui's heart had become heated.
He wanted the Du family to be stable. On one hand, it depended on Du Gou's fortune in the future. On the other hand, it depended on whether he could create a name for the Du family before a hundred years.
Something that could ensure that the Du family wouldn't wither for at least a hundred years!
And this was something that Du Ruhui had been brooding over.
Especially after seeing the locusts' great undertaking and the table of division, he felt even more urgent.
"Old Du!"
"Although we haven't had many opportunities to meet, I, Zhang Feng, believe that I'm quite good at reading people!"
"From what you said just now, I've actually already seen it. So, when Iron Bull and the others came to find me, I actually already understood. Actually, Old Li has already thought of this long ago, let alone you."
"If you want your descendants to continue living, then the path of commerce must not be the end. Instead, it must be how you can make use of this relationship to your advantage so that your descendants can enter an official career!"
"That's why you let each of them master a technique?"
Du Ruhui asked.
Zhang Feng nodded.
"Of course."
"To be honest, I didn't think so much at first. But in this feudal era, the eldest son is bound to be the heir of the family business. But what about the second son?"
"When you're here, perhaps nothing will be a problem. But have you ever thought about how the Brotherhood will develop once you're behind the scenes because of their interests?"
"That's why I saw their dreams in Iron Bull and the others. That's why I said it casually. I didn't expect these bastards to be so good."
"They're not stupid. They have their own dreams. It's only because they can't get recognition that they're dissolute. They want to prove their existence, or they want to use this method to numb themselves and attract your attention …"
Du Ruhui's expression couldn't help but change a little.
All these years, it was true that they had always been strict with their son. But he knew what Du Gou liked?
What Du He liked?
As a father, he didn't know at all!
"Brother Zhang Feng …"
Du Ruhui felt a little guilty.
He sighed heavily and said, "Thank you!"
"Isn't this what brothers should do?"
"Actually, these are all things in the future. At the very least, they have to wait until they graduate from the academy before they can really take charge of some things, or enter the imperial court and so on. The current situation is actually very obvious."
"With a big family and a big business, there are bound to be some problems. People are actually quite contradictory. They always want to be understood, but they're afraid that others will see through them. "
Zhang Feng sighed and said, "But we will always encounter a lot of things that we don't understand in life, or on the way forward. So if you care too much about other people's opinions, then your life will become a piece of cloth for your crotch. Whatever other people fart, you'll have to take it and bear it! "
"This …"
Du Ruhui was shocked.
Although these things seemed easy to understand and were a little vulgar, if one carefully thought about it, they would realize that there were many, many wise sayings contained within!
"Brother Zhang Feng, you …"
"I've learned something!"
Du Ruhui was so excited that his whole body was shaking.
He didn't speak much. It wasn't that he didn't have anything to say, but that in the imperial court, one sentence would often cause him to fall into the abyss. Moreover, the imperial court was a big dye vat, so he cared too much about what others said.
But now that he thought about it, Du Ruhui suddenly felt enlightened.
Just like what Brother Zhang Feng said, if everyone cared too much about what others said and how others felt, then what was the difference between that and a crotch cloth?
There was no difference!
Involuntarily, Du Ruhui stood up excitedly and bowed like a Confucian. He said, "Today, to be able to have Brother Zhang Feng explain my doubts, Old Du is really …"
"Enough, enough. You're already so old, don't come and bow to me. Do you still want to give me a memorial tablet?"
