Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Master Wang was in a rare good mood today, and because he had revealed his secret to his family, he felt extremely relaxed.

    So, he suddenly became excited and kept talking.

    ¡°After all, he, as an old man, is working as a pirate outside with his head raised, not for his own family.

    So, of course he hopes that his children will know how hard it is for him to be a father.

    And being a pirate is not only hard work, it is also a very dangerous profession.

    Although people who don¡¯t know it seem to think it is very beautiful, only those who really understand understand that it is not the same thing at all.

    As Mrs. Wang narrated, his two sons gradually came to know how much risk their father had taken at sea over the years.

    Mrs. Liu and her youngest daughter Xiu Niang, who were preparing dinner at the side, only now knew what kind of life their husband-in-law and father had been living in these years.

    When Mrs. Wang usually comes back, she never talks about outside matters.

    Even if it is said, it is an understatement.

    Therefore, as his wife, Mrs. Liu, she was not very clear about what kind of life her husband-in-law lived.

    Now she fully understands that being a pirate can lead to such a great contribution.

    Fortunately, God blessed her, and nothing happened to her husband. Otherwise, she would have no tears left to cry.

    Especially when Master Wang talked about the failure of the Naha naval battle last year, and the fact that he and a group of brothers were made prisoners, it immediately made the family feel excited.

    "After all, Master Wang is a person who has studied and taken the imperial examination. Although he was a failure if he did not pass the examination, his foundation is still there.

    So, it is very fascinating for him to talk about his past and the naval battles.

    It¡¯s a bit more exciting than those storytellers outside.

    "Father, wasn't it very dangerous for you to be prisoners when you were captured? Those yellow-haired and blue-eyed Folangji people will definitely not make it easy for you."

    Mrs. Wang¡¯s second son, Wang Chengan, looked at his father with a worried look and said.

    The boss Wang Chengping nodded in agreement with his younger brother, and then said angrily: "Dad, I have seen those Folangji people. There have been guys like this in Hangzhou. I think they all have yellow hair and blue eyes, and they seem to be looking for strange things.  , are you still eating human flesh alive?"

    "Dad, how come you have encountered such a thing? If you hadn't said it this time, as a wife, I wouldn't have known that your business would be so dangerous."

    Mrs. Liu put down the spatula in her hand and walked over with a very excited and complaining look on her face.

    She was excited because she never knew this business was so dangerous. What she complained about was that Mrs. Wang never told her these things when she came back before.

    As a couple, Mrs. Liu thinks that Mrs. Wang should have told her these things earlier.

    If she had known about it a long time ago, she would not have allowed her husband to continue doing this business.

    After all, even if you can make money, it is not as important as your life.

    ¡°And Mrs. Wang is the absolute backbone of the family.

    "What if something happens to him and he leaves the mother and son alone?"

    Although Mrs. Liu doesn¡¯t understand any big principles, she clearly knows that the happiest thing is when a family is together in peace.

    Although Mrs. Wang and she have accumulated thousands of taels of silver, the problem is what will she do if Mrs. Wang is gone?

    Mrs. Liu couldn't imagine what she would do without Mrs. Wang.

    In Mrs. Liu¡¯s heart, Mrs. Wang is the pillar of her heart.

    Even compared to children, it is much more important.

    After seeing his wife coming over with a complaining look on her face, Mrs. Wang smiled apologetically.

    "I didn't tell you these things at the beginning because I was afraid that you would worry. As the backbone of the family, I can just take care of things like this by myself. There is no need for you to worry about it."

    Mrs. Wang actually still has some machismo in her heart.

    "However, this male chauvinist is very caring.

    ¡°But he is definitely not the kind of person who looks down on women in later generations. In other words, Mrs. Wang can be considered a good man and returns her husband.

    In his opinion, his career as a pirate was actually due to his responsibility as a man, as a husband and father.What he did was nothing extraordinary.

    ¡°At that time, he had nothing, but he had a wife and children to raise.

    Therefore, a man must always have some expectations.

    He can¡¯t let his wife and children starve to death like this.

    So since he is a man and the backbone of the family, he must take on some things by himself.

    So as his wife and children, you just need to enjoy the life provided by him as a husband and father.

    This is also his own responsibility.

    It is precisely because of this that Mrs. Wang has silently resisted all dangers and loneliness for so many years.

    In fact, Master Wang is much better than many scholars of this era.

    Because many scholars like him are powerless in this era and have high ambitions but low ambitions.  They can't even support themselves, not to mention their families.

    And it will become a burden and drag on the family, but they enjoy it and I feel happy.

    Although there are scholars like Master Wang, they are in the minority after all.

    ¡°Perhaps Mrs. Wang woke up at first, or maybe he figured it out.

    In short, compared to many scholars of this era, Mrs. Wang is a very good husband and father.  After all, he still knew how to find a job that could support his family when there was no food to eat, so that his family could survive.

    It¡¯s just that the name of this business is not good-sounding, and it will be troublesome to say it out.

    ¡°But Mrs. Wang has done everything he should for his family and the entire family.

    There are so many scholars in this era, but how many of them can become famous?

    ¡°Thousands of troops and horses crossing the single-plank bridge is not an exaggeration at all.

    After all, only a few people can succeed, and most scholars may not succeed in their lifetime.

    Existences like this will often drag a well-off family below the poverty line.

    Think about it, studying requires tuition, and the tuition is not low.

    "At least for at least a month, you have to give me a tael of silver, right?"

    In this era, one tael of silver is enough to feed a family of five without starving to death.

    At the same time, if you are rushing to take an exam or something, you also need to pay for it, right?

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? together out of the blue So, Master Wang saw this at the beginning, and thought clearly before completely giving up the dream of imperial examination.

    How can a street guy like him, who is not outstanding in literary talent, get ahead?

    ¡°And he doesn¡¯t have any mentor network, so it¡¯s impossible to get ahead.

    Even if he can go to become a disciple, he can¡¯t get out that huge amount of filial piety money.

    If you give too little, people will dislike you; if you give too much, they won¡¯t have the ability.

    "Madam, as a man, I should be responsible for these things. You are a woman, and there is no reason for you to shoulder these things with me."

    Mrs. Wang looked at his wife Liu and said seriously.

    After hearing what her husband said, Mrs. Liu's eyes suddenly turned red.

    Of course she could hear the deep sense of responsibility for the family and love and protection in these words.

    For the sake of this family, children and myself, my husband silently endured so many dangers.

    For the first time, Ms. Liu suddenly felt that her husband, who had always been rigid, was no longer the same as before.  And she felt that such a husband made her feel warmer and more comfortable than before.

    ¡°Perhaps, it¡¯s quite good for my husband to become like this, isn¡¯t it?

    ¡°At the very least, compared to Sister-in-law Chen¡¯s husband-in-law on the east side of the street, my husband-in-law knows better about the pain of cold and heat.  Unlike Mrs. Chen's husband, who only beats his children or throws bowls and beats his wife when he has nothing to do, he can't do anything himself and still has his wife to support him.

    "Compared with men like that, even though they are both unsuccessful scholars, my husband is much better.

    "You, don't do this again. We are all a family. I am your wife, and I should shoulder everything with you. Although husband and wife are like birds in the forest, they fly away when disaster strikes, but I am not that kind of person. I  I hope I can share everything with you, you know.¡±

    It¡¯s rare that Mr. Liu actually said such words today.

    You know, Mrs. Liu has always been very taciturn and can't say anything about Mrs. Wang.?

    But today, Mrs. Liu told him a little bit of her thoughts and suggestions.

    "It won't happen anymore, because we are going to live a good life, right?"

    Of course Master Wang could hear the deep affection in his wife's words.

    Therefore, Master Wang was also a little moved.

    "Dad, how did you escape after you were captured by those yellow-haired Folangji people?"

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Just when the couple was feeling affectionate, the gangster boss Wang Chengping asked in a very embarrassing manner about what happened just now.

    His brother and the little sister who was busy on the side all rolled their eyes helplessly.

    ¡°My big brother is just such a person.

    You can¡¯t tell him what to do, so who knows what¡¯s wrong with his brain?

    Wang Chengping did not have such a consciousness. He also wanted to know how his father managed to escape from the hands of the Fo Langji people by killing everyone.

    In Wang Chengping¡¯s heart, his father must be very powerful.

    Although he became a prisoner of Franji, Dad will definitely be able to lead his brothers to make a comeback like the hero in the storybook.

    Yes, it is like that.

    Wang Chengping lacks a clear mind and has no exposure to the world.

    At the same time, I don¡¯t have much money in my pocket to listen to any storytelling.

    However, he learned a good carpentry skill, so he always did something for others in Hangzhou.

    He has seen places like teahouses and libraries.

    When I was working, I would also listen while working.

    Therefore, he is very interested in the fighting and killing in the story novels.

    Even though his father said that being a pirate is very dangerous and not as glamorous as people think, Wang Chengping still yearns for it.

    ¡°Even, he felt that he should be a pirate like his father.

    ???????????Besides, he himself thinks that since he has some strength, he would be suitable to be a pirate.

    Indeed, Wang Chengping is very strong, even though he is a bit stupid and fat.  But he was able to lift a millstone weighing more than 300 kilograms, and danced it very easily.

    You know, the weight of more than 300 kilograms in this era would be almost 500 kilograms in later generations.

    ¡°Perhaps, I am still a military commander mentioned in the storybook.

    This is a definition Wang Chengping stubbornly gave himself.

    "It's a pity that he is just a young carpenter, and his wish is destined to be just a fantasy.

    But now, he suddenly felt that his dream seemed not so far-fetched.

    Because my father is actually a pirate!

    Ha ha!

    Although judging from his father¡¯s intentions, he has already thought about quitting this business, but maybe he can let his father introduce him to become a pirate, right?

    It¡¯s just that we can¡¯t talk about this matter right now. We have to find an opportunity to ask about it slowly.

    Although Wang Chengping is a bit stupid, he is still somewhat clever.

    It¡¯s just that his intelligence still looks stupid to othersbut he doesn¡¯t feel that way himself.

    Ms. Liu's face turned red, then she turned around and walked to the stove, where she continued to get busy.

    Mrs. Wang also sorted out her mood, and then continued to talk about what happened after he was captured with a red face.

    "After we were captured by the Folangji, we were forced into their dark cabin cell. It was in that place that we stayed for more than five months. During this time, there were many  Brothers are dead.¡±

    As the story unfolded, Master Wang himself fell into that dark memory.

    The dark cell had only one rancid meal a day, and everyone was so dirty that it was impossible to clean them.  After the companions died, they were mercilessly thrown into the sea.

    The Franji people looked at them as if they were looking at piglets.

    That feeling is really unpleasant.

    They have resisted for this, but unfortunately, apart from the death of more companions, they can't change anything.

    At the same time, every time they resist, they will receive more serious abuse.

    Liu Dashen is a very tough guy, and he will take the opportunity to cause trouble for those Folangji people every time.  But it is precisely because of this reason that Liu Dashen was influenced by Fo Lang.The focus of people is ¡®care¡¯.

    At that time, Liu Dashang was hung on a pole and exposed to the sun, and he was about to die.

    At that time, everyone thought that this guy would never survive.

    However, at this desperate time, the warships of the Song Empire appeared.

    And the navy of the Song Empire solved those Folangji people and rescued them all.

    Oh, by the way, although the Ming Dynasty called the Nanman people the Folangji people, what Master Wang wanted to explain to his two sons was that in fact, these people also had a country.

    It seems that he was captured by the Dutch As for this, of course it was the people from the Song Empire who said this.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
