Vol 8 Chapter 30: The family will ask me what I mean

In the next few days, Chuemon did nothing.

In addition to the fact that there weren't many activities in the New Year, Chungemon couldn't turn his mind at all. He just lay on the couch in a daze for two days. If you don't have to eat and take a bath to relieve your hands, you won't get up at all.

At first, the family panicked, but now it is quiet, that is, quiet in the literal sense. They didn't dare to pant when they spoke, and the servants had their feet on foot even when they walked.

It was easy to get up today, but Chuemon was still "wood". He sat there with a book in front of him, and he didn't turn a page for half an hour.

"Someone came to hand over the post again." Alan walked in with the baby in his arms.

She now knew what Shiwan was for the Tokugawa family. It's no wonder that Tokugawa Jiaqing rewarded her family for 500 Shi Zhixing, not for anything else, just because the stomach was enough to give birth to Tokugawa's grandson. Since picking up pills is so important, she has to keep watching, for fear of something wrong.

"Never see or see, what do you see!" Chuemon was annoyed, there is no time to see people who are messed up.

Not even Matsuhira Chisun, Shimazu Tadashi, Ii Naobi have not seen it, and it is even more impossible for the others to see it. Those who came to visit this time were purely trying to come to Pan Gao Zhi'er, and fools could see the idea.

The brother-in-law of Chuemon in front, as well as the father-in-law who had already lived in seclusion, came quietly, wanting to say a few words. It's a pity that Alan is now politically conscious, and seeing his own father also stopped him. After saying a few words at the door, he sent them away. Anyway, no matter who it is, Chuemon must be happy to see you again.

"It's a post from the Iwatsuki clan residence." Alan handed the famous post to Chuyouemon.

Tadago Ooka?

What about this person...

Chuemon took up the famous post. Of course, it was impossible to say anything about it. It was purely an appointment with Chuemon. Whether others see it or not is second, this one should meet.

"Is the messenger still there?" Tademon thought for a while, and asked from his background.

"Yes, I asked him to have tea in the concierge."

"Hurry up!"

Soon, the people from the Ooka family came. Fortunately, Tadaemon did not return, and it was Ooka Tadasho who came. This is the political heir to Ooka Tadashi, a figure who will surely be used by the future Tokugawa family rule.

I used Iwataki's post, but I don’t know if Ooka Tadashi is coming back here on behalf of his old son Ooka Tadagoo, or on behalf of his lord Tokugawa family?

"I heard that you are not in good shape?" Although Tadaoemon looked very energetic and sat in the study to entertain guests, Ooka Tadashi still asked.

"No, no, it's just that I was lazy in the past two days." Tadaemon tidied up the books in front of him, then moved the small desk away, and ordered his servants to send a brazier to Ooka Tadasuke.

"Nothing is fine. My father and my son miss you very much."

Yep? Is your kid the representative of Ooka Tadagoo or Tokugawa Cadashin? Chuemon glanced at Ooka Tadashi without a trace, but didn't see anything from his face.

"His Royal Highness Lao Shizi and Hou Iwataki are concerned." Since we are still playing mystery, let's not make a statement.

"How about picking up pills?"

"Okay. Alan Alan, take the pills and show them to Hyogo!" We are also welcome to see the children.

He probably inherited Chuemon's sociable temperament, Shiwan never feared life, and never cried when he saw strangers. He just kept looking at Ooka Tadashi with his small eyes, as if he wanted to remember this face.

Ooka Tadashi wanted to hug him, stretched out his hand, but finally retracted. Shi Wan is now a fine and expensive person, and he is probably afraid of trouble. By then, he had already had the look of his old son Ooka Tadashi. He had been in the center for thirty years, and he was careful about him. He had never offended a person or made a mistake.

"I'm troubled, Madam." Seeing that the child is quite healthy, Ooka Tadasuke signaled to Alan that it's okay, you can take the child away.

"I want to come to my house in Hyogo, not just to see Shimaru." Chuemon tentatively said.

"It's not a big deal. His Royal Highness wants to see Shiwan." Ooka Zhongshu's face was flat and his speaking rate was normal, as if he was talking about something that had little to do with him.

"Understood!" Uncle wanted to see his eldest nephew, a normal request.

At this time the next day, Chuemon's family had arrived in Nishimaru, Honjo, waiting for the reception of the Tokugawa family.

As His Royal Highness who has already announced to the world and will soon inherit the throne of generals, the Tokugawa family is undoubtedly the king. Even if Chungemon recognizes his ancestor and returns to his clan, and has made clear his identity, he still has to meet the Tokugawa family as a minister.

The Tokugawa family in the seat still has a slightly "flat" face, and ordinary things seem to be completely unable to attract his attention. It's already pretty good today, at least he is watching Shiwan seriously.

The child is now being held by the nurse of the Tokugawa family, Utahashi. Originally, the Tokugawa family wanted to hold the baby, but he found that he would not hold the baby at all, so he let his nursing mother hold it, and he watched by the side. .

"Shiwan is so healthy, it is my Tokugawa's blessing." In front of familiar people, the Tokugawa family must be able to speak well, just one word at a time, which is a bit difficult.

"It is the blessing of Shiwan to be loved by Your Highness." Chuemon replied respectfully.

I understand what Ooka Tadagu said before, let's do our job well. They kindly reminded me, let’s listen first, it won’t do any harm.

"Yu Li, you are my courtier, but Yu Qing you are my brother. I should give you a great reward."

The Tokugawa clan sent the child back to Alan's arms, leaned on the support, and looked at Chuemon, slowly.

Chuemon was right when he thought about it. Tokugawa Ieki only said that he would temporarily confirm the status of Chuemon by comparing it to the nominative character of the country of Shiwanishi. However, the actual disposition will be discussed after the concession ceremony is over. This is likely to allow the Tokugawa family to show favor to Chuemon to facilitate the harmonious relationship between the two brothers.

Obviously Tokugawa Kasada himself had considered this matter himself, or he had listened to the suggestions of his three Fu Yamen. In the end, it must be the Tokugawa family's reward for Chuemon, this will not change.

"I don't dare to take credit." No matter how he guessed in his heart, Mian Tadaoemon still wanted to decline.

"Not just to reward you, but also to pick up pills." The Tokugawa family pointed to picking up pills, which was quite true.

Just for the sake of picking up pills, Alan's family rewarded five hundred stones, and Chungemon had to give him a great gift.

"Do you want Yamagata two hundred and fifty thousand stones, or a bridge of one hundred thousand stones?"
