MTL - Yuan Tianzun-Chapter 12 Clan Concentric

  Chapter 12 Clan Concentricity

  The ancestral house of the Wu family in Licheng, a high-walled courtyard, is next to the "Wu Family Lane".

   "Come down." Wu Qiming stepped out of the carriage first.

   Wu Yuan helped Wan Qin get out of the car, his eyes swept over the ancestral house, it was not as good as the General's Mansion, but it was also very extraordinary.

  In Wu Yuan’s memory, since his father died in battle, he and his mother usually only come for the Chinese New Year and the three major festivals.

  Three major festivals, the first is the "Kaizong Festival", the second is the "Lizu Festival", and the third is the "Wuwang Festival". They are all commemorative festivals and the most solemn.

  For the people of the seven prefectures in the Central Plains, the Wuwang Festival is common, and they all commemorate the legendary ancestor of humanity "Wuwang", but the other two festivals may not be the same.

  Of course, under Hengyunzong's rule, the opening festival is the same time.

   "The patriarch is back." The housekeeper of the ancestral house came up to meet him, looked at the two people who followed him, and smiled: "So it's brother Yuan and sister-in-law."

   "Fang Bo is polite." Wu Yuan smiled.

  The housekeeper's surname is Fang, and he is trusted by 'Wu Qiming'. In Wu Yuan's memory, he is very indifferent to Fang Xianglai and most of the Wu clan.

   It looks like.

  The results of the Martial Academy Grand Competition have already spread, and the fourth, although not so eye-catching, is already very dazzling.

   "Old Fang, prepare some drinks, I will eat with Wu Yuan later." Wu Qiming ordered: "Besides, no one is allowed to enter the study room without my order."

   "Yes." Fang Butler said.

  Wu Yuan and his mother followed Wu Qiming into the study room on the side of the compound. It is very quiet and has a large collection of books, which is very elegant and much better than Wu Yuan's house.

   each sit down.

   "Wu Yuan, what should be said, I have already said it on the way."

   "The Qing family's family status is not too strong. I hope that the daughter of the head of the family will be engaged. I have met the lady of the Qing family. She is knowledgeable in books and etiquette, and she is interested in imperial examinations. She can be your help." Wu Qiming said directly.

"Luo family, the person who is willing to marry is also the daughter of the sixth family. It seems that she is not as good as the lady of the Qing family, but the Luo family is a luxurious family. I would like to provide a lot of silver to help you practice. I remember that the son of the Luo family's head, 'Luo He', was originally you. Classmates."

   "I feel that the rest of the houses are not suitable for you, so I rejected them for you." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan: "Your mother means that the Qing family is more suitable."

   "Mother, you also want to marry me?" Wu Yuan frowned.

   "It's just an engagement, stay for a few years, and then get married." Wan Qin was very satisfied: "The daughter of the Qing family, my mother has seen it several times from afar..."

   "Mom!"

  Wu Yuan frowned and said: "My son has no plans to get engaged, and he has no intention of getting married in a short time."

   "Patriarch, Qing and Luo, I'll let you decline for me. The reason is that I concentrate on martial arts and don't have any personal relationship with my children." Wu Yuan said solemnly.

   Without waiting for the patriarch Wu Qiming to speak, Wan Qin immediately got angry.

"Yuan'er, you have always been determined and assertive in doing things. As a mother, you have always relied on you." Wan Qin looked at her son, a little angry: "You have made great achievements in martial arts, and my mother is proud of you. You must pay attention to your marriage. Raise your brothers and sisters, if you don’t get married and have no offspring, how can I meet your father in the future?”

  Wu Qiming smiled.

  Wu Yuan felt a headache.

  In the previous life, almost no parents urged marriage in the interstellar era, and even a considerable number of human beings were 'socialized'.

  Unfortunately, this is the world of Middle-earth, and in many respects it has something in common with Blue Star’s ancient times, the blood inheritance is greater than the sky.

  Of course, Wu Yuan would not blame his mother.

  Different social forms naturally have different thoughts and customs.

   "Mother."

   Wu Yuan calmed down and said: "It's not that my son doesn't want to get married, it's just that my son has just turned fourteen, and it's the best time to practice martial arts, so I don't want to be distracted."

   "When the child is in his twenties and has achieved great martial arts, he will naturally consider marriage. At that time, the child will also be able to choose a more suitable wife." Wu Yuan said solemnly.

   "Twenties?" Wan Qin hesitated.

   "Sister-in-law, a real powerful warrior, it's normal for her to get married in her twenties and thirties." Wu Qiming smiled and said, "That's why I didn't try to persuade Wu Yuan."

"OK!"

  Wan Qin trusted Wu Qiming very much, but still gave Wu Yuan a glare: "From now on, don't talk to me about not getting married."

   "Yes, my child, please remember." Wu Yuan nodded repeatedly.

"Yuan'er, I don't understand major matters, but the patriarch understands. When you encounter problems, you should discuss with the patriarch. Mother will go to the backyard to meet your aunt first, and you and the patriarch will talk first." Wan Qin got up, apologized slightly to Wu Qiming, and exited the study .

  The aunt in her mouth naturally refers to Wu Qiming's wife.

   "Wu Yuan, you have a good mother, don't let her down." Wu Qiming said with emotion.

   "Yes." Wu Yuan nodded slightly.

  Mother Wan Qin, although limited by her vision and cognition, is by no means stupid. She guessed early on that Wu Qiming was looking for Wu Yuan not only for 'marriage'.

  If it's just these things, there is no need to come to Wu's ancestral house.

  Come here because the wall has ears, and we have important matters to discuss.

  So, after discussing the marriage, Wan Qin left the scene tactfully. She believed that her son had good judgment, and she also believed that the patriarch would not treat Wu Yuan badly.

   "Marriage, really don't think about it?"

  Wu Qiming poured tea while talking: "You are a sensible person, you should be able to understand the benefits of engagement."

   "My Wu family, after all, I am a little weak, and it is difficult to invest a lot of resources on you."

   "If you can be the son-in-law of the Luo family or the Qing family, you will have the support of another big family, and your martial arts training will be smoother." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan.

   "I don't think about it." Wu Yuan shook his head.

  Patriarch Wu Qiming is right, if Wu Yuan is just an ordinary martial arts disciple, marriage with the same big clan is the best choice.

  Martial arts training requires financial support!

   And for these big clans to continue their glory, they also need the support of powerful warriors.

   It's a win-win.

  It's a pity that Wu Yuan's demand for money is not too high, or in other words, no matter the 'money' that the Qing family or the Luo family can provide, the actual help to Wu Yuan is pitiful.

not to mention.

  In Wu Yuan's heart, his wife should be a kindred spirit, how could he choose so casually?

   "Patriarch, no matter the Qing family or the Luo family, they are not easy people. They recruit a son-in-law, hoping to get ten times the return." Wu Yuan said calmly: "Some help given to me now will become my **** in the future."

   "When you are strong, you will become a high-level sect, and you will be in charge of a county or even a prefecture. Whether you help or not is only up to you." Wu Qiming said.

  He said it very implicitly.

   But Wu Yuan understands the actual meaning, use it now, use it up first, and when you run out, you can completely kick it aside in the future, just give some favors, do they dare to turn their backs?

"Well, I will repay you with springs; I will repay you with ten times of revenge." Wu Yuan did not hide it, and his voice was sonorous: "Patriarch, this is my heart of martial arts. I, Wu Yuan, should be upright and not against myself. Heart."

  Wu Qiming's eyes lit up, the heart of martial arts?

  He vaguely understands why Wu Yuan can improve so fast.

   "Okay, since you have decided, I won't persuade you." Wu Qiming said, "What do you think about Xu Yuanhan's matter?"

   Wu Yuan understood instantly.

  This is probably what Wu Qiming wants to ask.

  This matter must be kept secret, and Wu Qiming has no way to discuss it with other members of the clan.

   "Xu Yuanhan's skills are not as good as others. If he loses in a fair duel, what can we say?" Wu Yuan shook his head and said, "We have fulfilled our promise, otherwise, neither Xu Yuanhan nor Liu Ruyan are my opponents."

   "Yes." Wu Qiming said with regret: "If I knew this, I shouldn't have agreed to the Xu family and let you enter the Yunwu Palace a year late, which is cheaper than Liu Ruyan."

   "Who knows the future? This was our best choice at the time." Wu Yuan said frankly.

  Wu Qiming sighed: "I also understand, but today's changes, I wonder if the Xu family will be dissatisfied with us."

   "My Wu family is as benevolent as possible. If the Xu family continues to oppress me, I can't just back down." Wu Yuan expressed his opinion.

  Bowing your head for a while is to hold your head high in the end.

  If you only know how to bow your head, you will eventually be stepped to the bottom of the dust valley.

   "I will consider it." Wu Qiming nodded lightly: "However, with General Xu's personality, it should not be that far."

   "Okay, let's talk about this later."

"Wu Yuan." Wu Qiming looked at Wu Yuan: "In terms of martial arts training, my Wu family has less than ten martial arts masters, not even a single master. It's hard to help you, so I can only provide some money. If you need it, Must speak to me."

   "After today's big competition, no one will oppose you in the Wu family." Wu Qiming said.

   "I haven't spent the sum of money last time. If I really need it, I and my family will not be polite." Wu Yuan laughed.

  In Wu Yuan's memory, many members of the Wu family seem to have 'oppressed' his family for several years, and they have opinions, but the core reason is not his father's death in battle.

   It was because of his father's death in battle that it was difficult for his family to support himself in cultivation, which led to occupying a large amount of family resources for a long time.

  With the support of Wu Qiming, the family's "money bank" has spent thousands of taels of silver on Wu Yuan.

  The money is not much for the big family.

  Can it be against Wu? It's a huge sum of money!

   After all, the family treasury is earned by the hard work of hundreds of people in the family, and it is used to grow the entire family.

  In the land of Middle-earth, most of the clans have competition within themselves, but generally speaking, most of the clans that are united and disunity will fall sooner or later.

   And don't forget.

  The previous Wu Yuan could only be regarded as a top-ranked disciple in the martial arts academy, not the top!

  Becoming a top-notch master? Extremely difficult!

   This is the reason why many members of the Wu family are dissatisfied, thinking that it is a waste of resources.

   Today, at the young age of fourteen, winning the top four in the Martial Arts Grand Competition is enough to convince the Wu family that the resources invested are not in vain.

   Actually.

   This is also one of the reasons why Wu Yuan wants to participate in the martial arts competition.

  He is very grateful to the Wu family, and exposing a small part of his strength can make the clan happy and excited, so why not do it?

  Is it impossible?

  Like some novels I read in my previous life, do I have to find an opportunity to 'slap' the tribe? Why bother!

  From any point of view, Wu Yuan hopes that the Wu family will become stronger.

   "Haha, I hope you don't blame the attitude of those uncles before the family, it's not easy." Wu Qiming smiled and said: "Actually, we are all looking forward to it. My Licheng Wu family can also give birth to a top-notch master!"

   "Business? If there is no support by force, too much money is a disaster rather than a blessing."

   "To become a real powerful clan, martial arts powerhouses are the foundation!"

ps: I will get married on November 1st. Although I have made a lot of preparations in the past two months, the complexity is still beyond my imagination. I ran out for a day today, so the update time may not be very stable before the 3rd. But I will do my best to keep the two updates!
