As soon as Ouyang Bian returned to the courtyard, someone came in to report that Mr. Ouyang's car was coming. Sure enough, Ouyang Xiu came in after a while.

"Oh, my dear old father, you actually came to me in person. The child really feels the supreme honor!"

Ouyang Bian said fussfully.

Lu Caiwei smiled and said quickly: "Please sit down, Lord Ouyang, I'll make a cup of tea."

Ouyang Xiu nodded and watched Lu Caiwei leave, and whispered: "How did you arrange this Lu Caiwei?"

Ouyang Bian glanced at the old father sideways: "What should I arrange?"

Ouyang Xiu whispered: "Now you have a engagement with the rich lady, so you are not allowed to have any children before marriage!"

Ouyang Bian was amused and crying.

Ouyang Xiu said: "Don't take it seriously. It doesn't matter if my concubine is pregnant, but it's best not to be before her wife, otherwise it's hard to explain."

Ouyang Bian glanced at Ouyang Xiu: "Dad, are you someone outside?"

Ouyang Bian whispered: "What nonsense? If you have someone in your father, you will naturally take it home. With my family status, what's wrong with taking a concubine?"

Ouyang Bian smiled: "That's it, then I support you, Dad, oh, I'll go to find my mother in a while and tell her that you want to bring the people outside back."

Ouyang Xiu widened his eyes: "Nonsense, how could there be someone outside me? Am I that kind of person?"

Ouyang Bian nodded: "You are!"

Ouyang Xiu blew his beard and stared at him: "You are talking nonsense, I don't!"

Ouyang Bian said: "Then I'll ask you a few questions."

Ouyang Xiu said qiyly: "You ask."

"Am I your biological son?"

"nonsense!"

"Do you often say that I look like you the most?"

"That's natural, otherwise how could you be like this...well, excellent!"

Ouyang Bian smiled strangely: "Since I am like you and Lu Caiwei is my woman, I still let her stay at home with pride, then do you mean that you have women outside?"

Ouyang Xiu: “…”

Ouyang Bian smiled, but saw Ouyang Xiu searching for something everywhere. Ouyang Bian said curiously: "Dad, what are you looking for?"

Ouyang Xiu said to himself: "Strange, why is it that such a big yard doesn't even have a broom?"

Ouyang Bian immediately became alert: "Dad, what are you looking for a broom to do?"

Ouyang Bian smiled kindly: "It's okay, it's just to let you feel the love of your old father."

Ouyang Bian: “…”

"Tell me, what's the matter with me?"

Ouyang Bian was depressed. Facing power, his clever words made people look weak. Only fists could protect himself, but he did not, so he could only bow his head.

Ouyang Xiu smiled and said, "Isn't that going to happen? I'll show my hideous face... I can't know your little tricks. If you stick your butt, I'll know what you want to shit."

Ouyang Bian was shocked: "Dad, you are so smart."

Ouyang Xiu snorted: "Stop giving me a smile. I came to you this time, because His Majesty entrusts you. You should know what happened, right?"

Ouyang Bian sighed immediately.

"What's wrong?" Ouyang Xiu said curiously, "Isn't this a good thing?"

Ouyang Bian said: "What a good..."

Ouyang Xiu said angrily: "Don't swear!"

All right.

Ouyang Bian said with a frown: "I'm right about the central bank's suggestions, but that's a nest of right and wrong. If I really want to take the lead, you, Grand Secretary Ouyang, may not be able to sleep well at night."

Ouyang Xiu laughed: "I'm not afraid of anything!"

Ouyang Bian nodded: "You are not afraid of trouble, but this matter is indeed very annoying."

Ouyang Xiu became serious: "Tell me carefully."

Ouyang Bian nodded: "Not to mention that the central bank will become a mountain of gold and silver by then, many people will stare at it and want to dig a hoe. This is something under the table. You can't stand the sunshine and you can't bear it back.

But one of the central bank cannot avoid it, that is, loans. The central bank has deposit business, and loans business. If there is a business that is about to go bankrupt, it must be clearly stated. At that time, if some state governments that are about to go bankrupt will come to borrow according to regulations, the state government’s parents will ask for it. Do you think you will lend or not?”

Ouyang Xiu was stunned: "The state capital went bankrupt?"

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "If a family can go bankrupt, the country can go bankrupt. Can't the state government go bankrupt?"

Ouyang Xiu thought: "The prefecture, which is about the year of the disaster, is it bankrupt?"

Ouyang Bian nodded: "Although it is an extreme situation, you can understand it so well."

Ouyang Xiu nodded: "This is a troublesome thing. The state capital is bankrupt. It is indeed a difficult problem to recycle this loan. But if you refuse, the state chiefs will definitely hold a grudge against you. In this way, you will offend more people in the future."

Ouyang Bian slapped his thigh: "Yes, so can I get into this position!"

Ouyang Xiu was also a little troubled. It didn’t matter if he offended the official, but even Ouyang Xiu was unwilling to do so even if he offended the civil servant group.

Although he was a big mouth and was upset when he saw people, it was the way for Qingliuguan to maintain his reputation. However, he really offended too many people, and Ouyang Xiu was unwilling to do this.

Otherwise, do you think Ouyang Xiu’s literary leader was arguing with others?

It is not the kind of ecology formed by the Shilin scholars who praise each other and build each other's platforms.

To put it bluntly, it is just to unite the majority and confront a small part.

But once the central bank is carried on its shoulders, it will indeed offend many people.

Ouyang Xiu wanted to comfort his youngest son, but he heard Ouyang Bian say, "Oh, forget it, you will definitely not be able to escape. Your Majesty said, "No one can do this except me!"

Ouyang Xiu was about to nod, but heard Ouyang Bian say something, which almost made him cough violently.

“…Sometimes, being too outstanding is also a sin!”

Ouyang Xiu: “…”

Ouyang Bian smiled and said, "Okay, Dad, you told the emperor that I can handle this job, but during my tenure, no one or any organization shall interfere in the affairs of the central bank.

The court can check the accounts and remove me, but if you want to interfere in the affairs of the central bank, please remove me before talking about it.

Just this one, I will go up if I agree. If I don’t agree, please ask for a good friend!”

Ouyang Xiu frowned and said, "How about it, let it go?"

Ouyang Bian slowly put away his hippie smile and shouted in a low voice: "Dad..."

Ouyang Xiu's heart trembled.

He had never seen a young man who looked so fragile.

Ouyang Bian raised his head and smiled softly: "Dad, when my son goes up, the Ouyang family will be at the forefront of the storm in the future. Are you afraid?"

Ouyang Xiu looked at Ouyang Bian's eyes that were clearly distinguished from black and white, his high nose, like a face covered with gouache, and his lips applied with red pills. I don't know how many girls' youth would be in the future.

He suddenly laughed, and his laughter gradually grew, and finally laughed filled the entire yard.

After a short rest, Ouyang Xiu looked at his youngest son, his eyes full of determination and encouragement.

"Are you afraid of your father, me, you, your mother and your brothers, following me around over the years?"

Ouyang Xiudao.

Ouyang Bian's eyes felt a little wet, his voice was slightly choked, but he said loudly: "Walk around the world and enjoy the beautiful scenery of famous mountains and rivers, why not?"

Ouyang Xiu smiled and said, "I think so too."
