Chapter 385: The Autumn Moon of the Four Great Talents

Zhou Wenbin was arrogant, even if he had a broken arm and was wearing a cloth shirt, he did not show weakness on his face, looking at Chen Xiaosheng and them was like looking at an enemy. He glanced at Master Wuwei coldly, and said, "Back then, my grandfather was wronged by Tang Yu, and I was wronged by Tang Bohu, and it was the Tang family who really did the evil!" If you want to recite the scriptures, you should go to them and tell them to do less evil, instead of looking for me, there is a cause and effect, if it weren't for the Tang family's bullying too much, how could I find the Tang family for revenge?! ”

Zhou Wenbin was about to leave after speaking, but Master Wuwei hurriedly stopped him and said sincerely: "Master Zhou, when is the time for retribution?" You are too angry, and it is not good for future generations. ”

Zhou Wenbin smiled mockingly, "Descendants? The family revenge has not been avenged, who will talk about the children and grandchildren? With that, he pushed him away and strode away.

The onlookers pointed at Zhou Wenbin, saying that he didn't know the hearts of good people, and even scolded such a kind-hearted master of Wuwei, which really didn't know what to do. There are also people who persuade Master Wuwei not to pay attention to this kind of person and scold Zhou Wenbin for deserving it.

Su Xueyun glanced at Wuwei and said, "Zhishan, Xiaolian, let's go in, there's nothing to see." ”

Chen Xiaosheng and Zhu Xiaolian nodded, and the three of them entered the door, shut the noise out, and went to visit the teacher together. Zhou Chen was very surprised when he saw them, and hurriedly asked, "Qiuyue, it's good for you to come back, the matter is settled, right?" ”

Su Xueyun nodded with a smile, poured a cup of tea for Zhou Chen, and brought it to him and said, "Let the teacher worry, Qiuyue will be free in the future, and she must live well and not embarrass the teacher." ”

Zhou Chen took the teacup and took a sip, nodding happily, "Okay, it's good to be safe." You have been concentrating on martial arts before, and you are not very talented in qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, so don't force this. As the saying goes, I am born to be useful, and I don't have to force it to learn, as long as I have a good character, I am very pleased to be a teacher. ”

Chen Xiaosheng smiled: "Then teacher, you don't have to worry, Qiuyue's character has absolutely nothing to say." By the way, teacher, we met Zhou Wenbin when we came in just now, and he came to you to write a letter of recommendation for him? Are you embarrassed? Why don't I go and talk to him? ”

Zhou Chen frowned slightly and sighed, "Zhou Wenbin, as a teacher, has always thought that he is scheming and unskilled, but he does have real talent and learning, and I won't tell you that he is a little hesitant to be a teacher." ”

Zhu Xiaolian said: "Pavilion Master Zhou, Zhou Wenbin doesn't seem to be so bad in private, I have contacted him a few times, and I feel that he is usually quite normal, speaking of which, he also saved me twice." However, when he tried against my brother, he really didn't use the right methods, and it's really hard to say how his character is. ”

Zhou Chen sighed: "That's right, as soon as the recommendation is written, I don't know if there will be many pillars of the country or many black sheep in the future, alas." ”

Su Xueyun saw that he was so embarrassed, so he said: "Teacher, it is not yet the day of the imperial examination, why don't you observe him when you have time, speaking of which, even if he wants to take the exam, he has to heal his arm, how to take the exam if his right arm is broken?" ”

Zhou Chen frowned again, "His right arm is broken, and he is still so persistent in the imperial examination, which shows that he is a person with a strong heart." It's just that I heard about his grandfather back then...... Alas, it seems that being the first talent in Jiangnan and the top student in the examination is already the obsession of the Zhou family, and I don't know if he really wants to serve the country or wants to climb to a high position and take revenge on the Tang family. The dispute between their two ancestors actually affected their descendants, which was really a sin. ”

When it comes to the Tang family, Su Xueyun and they are inconvenient to say anything. Zhou Chen also reacted and said with a smile: "Forget it, today is a happy day, let's not mention those bad things." I'll tell the kitchen, make a table of wine and food and send it, and you will stay and have a meal with the teacher. Speaking of which, Zhishan hasn't been here for more than a month, and I heard Zhengming say that he was going to do business? Look at the way you look should be smooth, don't get drunk today. ”

Chen Xiaosheng hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go, teacher, you sit." ”

Zhu Xiaolian said with a smile: "Pavilion Master Zhou, don't you know, my brother is actually not going to do business, but disguised himself as another person to accompany Sister Qiuyue to take revenge." ”

Zhou Chen looked at Su Xueyun in surprise, "Oh? Zhishan went with Qiuyue? ”

Zhu Xiaolian nodded, and told Zhou Chen everything that happened during this time, her brother is more capable than before, and he found such a good sister-in-law for her, she was so happy that she couldn't wait to see someone. It just so happened that Chen Xiaosheng came back, and Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Last time, you drank with me, and said that you would let the teacher help you pay attention to your family affairs, but I didn't expect that you and Qiu Yue would become a couple not long after." He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You two are both stable people, and after this experience of living and dying together, you will surely meet in harmony between husband and wife in the future, good, good!" ”

Zhu Xiaolian's eyes rolled, and she suddenly said, "Pavilion Master Zhou, since my brother and Sister Qiuyue are both your students, it is better for you to be their officiant in the future!" You also know that my brother has no elders, and it would be great if Pavilion Master Zhou could help my brother do it! ”

Su Xueyun smiled speechlessly: "You are not ashamed of being a little girl, you don't have to worry about these things." ”

"That's not what you say, the so-called striking while the iron is hot, Sister Qiuyue is so good, what if she is snatched away by others? Anyway, you are also deeply affectionate, so it is better to settle down. The scientific examination will be going soon, brother, you will definitely go to the exam, right? Start a family first and then start a business, if you marry Sister Qiuyue and enter the door, maybe you will be double happy and win the champion, when the time comes, Sister Qiuyue will be Mrs. Champion, and I will be the champion's sister! "I wish Xiaolian more and more happy the more she talks, and she has the intention of letting them get married tomorrow.

Chen Xiaosheng knocked her head with a fan and said with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense in front of the teacher, just take care of your own business, no big or small." Besides, I don't plan to take the imperial examination, I haven't read for so long, and I don't have much hope of going, so it's better to recuperate at home and open my study well. ”

Who knew that Zhou Chen said, "As one of the Three Treasures of Suzhou, how can you not go to the imperial examination?" Zhishan, what Xiaolian said also makes sense, if you are interested in each other, it is better to get married first, you and Qiuyue are not too young, and their lives are much more stable when they become a family. As for the imperial examination, as a teacher, I believe you, and you will definitely be able to get a good ranking in the Guangzong Glory Ancestor, you have to think about it. ”

Zhu Xiaolian hurriedly echoed and persuaded them to settle down as soon as possible. Chen Xiaosheng and Su Xueyun glanced at each other, and smiled helplessly, they have been busy since they crossed over, like tight strings, and now they are only slightly relaxed, they have not adapted to ancient times, and they have not really gained a foothold, but they did not expect that their husband and wife were not in a hurry, but they were suddenly urged to marry. However, their age is very young in modern times, and they are indeed past the age of marriage in ancient times, so it is no wonder that others are urging.

Chen Xiaosheng thought for a while, got up and bowed to Zhou Chen, and said, "Teacher, there are no elders in the student's family, I don't know if I can ask the teacher to come forward on my behalf and propose to Qiuyue's aunt?" ”

Zhou Chen said happily: "Okay, this kind of happy event is naturally willing for the teacher, you can rest assured, my two students are married, and I will definitely give you a beautiful scenery." ”

Zhu Xiaolian sat down beside Su Xueyun with a smile, held her hand and said, "In the future, many sisters-in-law will love me." ”

Su Xueyun shook her head amusedly, "You, fortunately, we don't pay much attention to the rules in the rivers and lakes, otherwise you will definitely be scared away by changing your girlfriends, how can you talk about this in front of the woman?" ”

Zhou Chen smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, we are all our own people, as long as we don't be heard by others." By the way, don't drink if Zhishan is injured, let's replace wine with tea. ”

Chen Xiaosheng and Su Xueyun didn't think that they would negotiate the marriage so quickly, but thinking that this is ancient times, marriages are indeed like this, otherwise I am afraid that it will worry others, so it is better to let it be. Besides, they crossed together as husband and wife, and Su Xueyun was also a little worried that Chen Xiaosheng would not adapt to ancient times, and it would be good for them to be able to become husband and wife and live together openly.

After the meal, Chen Xiaosheng and Zhu Xiaolian went home, Zhu Xiaolian saw the clean home, turned around several times inside and out, and smiled happily: "No wonder rich and noble people like to invite people, it turns out that it feels so good that you don't have to clean it yourself." ”

Chen Xiaosheng quipped: "Do you think your brother used to treat you harshly?" If it weren't for our frugality, how could we have the money to open a study? ”

Zhu Xiaolian pretended to be angry and said, "How could I say that? Don't wronged me, be careful that I sue my sister-in-law, my sister-in-law will definitely help me. ”

Chen Xiaosheng shook his head, "Not long ago, you saw that she looked like she was going to eat her, but now you are closer to her than to me, women are really fickle." ”

"Hey, you're fickle, I used to like that Su Ju for ten years, no matter how I persuaded you, you didn't listen, I didn't expect to disappear for more than a month and fall in love with Sister Qiuyue." Zhu Xiaolian looked at Chen Xiaosheng seriously and said, "I warn you, don't be half-hearted, Sister Qiuyue is not known how many times better than that Su Ju, if that Su Ju really likes you, she won't listen to her father marry someone else at all, don't think about her in the future." You can also see how Sister Qiuyue treated Tang Bohu, if she finds out that you are half-hearted, I see, hum, you are careful to be divided by five horses! ”

Chen Xiaosheng grabbed the fan on the table and smacked her hard, "Is your brother and I like that?" I'm also a famous talent in Jiangnan, I don't know how many women want to marry me over the years, I rejected everyone because of someone in my heart, like I would be half-hearted? Now Qiuyue and I have experienced the relationship of living and dying together, and it is not comparable to others, I have also figured it out, the past has long passed, and cherishing the talent in front of you is the most important thing. Don't worry, Qiu Yue and I will be happy, full of children and grandchildren, and it is impossible for the things you said to happen. ”

Zhu Xiaolian covered her forehead and muttered, "I kindly persuaded you to beat me, hmph, the next time I see Sister Qiuyue, I will tell her that you are not good to me!" I'll go to sleep and ignore you! ”

Zhu Xiaolian said so, but before going to bed, she still boiled the hot water. Chen Xiaosheng smiled, and suddenly understood why Su Xueyun liked her sister so much in the previous life, it really feels good to have a well-behaved and sensible sister.

Chen Xiaosheng was about to rest, when he suddenly heard footsteps outside the door, he walked over to open the door suspiciously, and saw Wen Zhengming raising his hand to knock on the door.

Wen Zhengming was stunned and asked, "Old Zhu?" How do you know I'm coming? ”

Chen Xiaosheng smiled and let him in: "Zhengming, did you forget?" I practiced martial arts, and now my hearing is not what it used to be, and you don't know martial arts, and your steps are heavy, so I heard it when you came over. ”

Wen Zhengming said suddenly: "I see, if you don't mention it, I forgot that you know martial arts." He looked at Chen Xiaosheng, who had lost a lot of weight, and said, "Speaking of which, it's really not suitable for your change, but this is a good change, and you look much more reliable now." The so-called Kong said Chengren, Meng said to take righteousness, Lao Zhu, change well! ”

Chen Xiaosheng took him to the study and sat down, poured him a cup of tea, saw him holding a cloth bag in his hand, and said, "You came to give me the box for my aunt's keeping?" ”

"yes, how do you know?" Wen Zhengming's face was full of doubts, he opened the cloth bag to reveal the box inside, and pushed it in front of him, "You open it and see if it's right." ”

Chen Xiaosheng has been a police forensic witness for so long, and many things will be involuntarily analyzed at a glance, and this speculation is naturally not a problem. He didn't explain, just smiled and said, "I guessed casually, why are you in such a hurry?" Brought it to me at night? My aunt has helped me so much, and I should have come to visit to thank me, but I am grateful for your delivery so late. ”

Wen Zhengming said with a smile: "My mother heard that you are back, so she asked me to send the things quickly, for fear that you will not be useful." After he finished speaking, his face suddenly turned solemn, and he said in a deep voice, "Lao Zhu, you are too uninteresting, what did you say at the beginning that you were afraid that Xiaolian would be in a bad mood, so I asked my mother to help you keep it, who knew that you were not going to do business at all." You were afraid that you would die in the first place, did you? You knew that you were in danger, but you didn't tell your brother, could it be that Bohu and I are greedy for life and afraid of death? The so-called Kong said Chengren, Meng said righteousness! How can you deceive your brother? ”

Chen Xiaosheng smiled when he saw that he was angry, got up and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Zhengming, being a brother is someone who can stick a knife in both ribs, go up the knife mountain and go down the oil pot, but in addition to being my brother, you are also your mother's son, and you are the only male in the nine generations of the Wen family." It is precisely because I treat you as a brother that I can't affect you, not to mention that you can't help with this kind of martial arts thing, and it's just to worry everyone when you say it. My parents died early, your mother is my mother, my aunt watched me grow up, I treat her as my elder, how can I make her worry? Well, isn't it great that now that it's finally safe and everyone is happy? Brother, I also want you to be good, don't be angry with me. ”

Wen Zhengming said a little unwillingly: "You have always been able to speak well in business, I can't talk about you, in short, this time it's you who are wrong, our brother said that you should share happiness and hardship, if you hide anything from me next time, I will definitely not forgive you!" ”

"I know, I know, come, I'll replace wine with tea, and I'll make a compensatory deal with you, Brother Zhengming, don't blame me. My injuries haven't healed yet, and you can't bear to keep me thinking about it, right? Chen Xiaosheng personally brought Wen Zhengming a cup of tea, and Wen Zhengming finally couldn't help laughing.

After that, Wen Zhengming cared about Chen Xiaosheng's injury again, and when he saw that it was getting late, he got up and went home, and when he left, he stood at the door and stopped talking for a long time, still didn't mention Tang Bohu, thinking that the three brothers didn't know if they could reconcile, and left with a sigh.

Zhou Chen is very attentive to his students, and he has always encountered bad things during this period of time, and it is rare to have a happy event, he also wants to do it as soon as possible to make everyone happy, and by the way, let the Six Arts Hall also be lively. So on the second day, accompanied by Chen Xiaosheng and Zhu Xiaolian, he began to buy the dowry, the silver was naturally Chen Xiaosheng, and the gift list was drawn up by Zhou Chen and bought according to the above.

Zhu Xiaolian is responsible for picking good-looking jewelry, because she likes Su Xueyun's sister-in-law, she is also very generous, and she picks all the valuables, this time she spent most of the Zhu family's savings, and only the silver for family affairs is left in the budget.

Zhu Xiaolian said: "Originally, I had already figured out what to dowry, but who knew that my family affairs were gone, and you were going to marry instead." But I don't have the heart to think about these things now, I'll give you all the money in the house, brother, you have to remember my good in the future, don't have a lady and don't care about my sister. ”

Chen Xiaosheng said with a smile: "Don't worry, sister, the daughter is gone, and I will come back, my brother will earn more silver in the future, and keep it when you get married." ”

"It's going to sound good!" Zhu Xiaolian smiled happily, "But I know that my brother won't treat me badly, let's go, let's pick two more gold bracelets for Sister Qiuyue." Sister Qiuyue is so beautiful, she must look like a fairy when she wears good-looking jewelry. ”

I wish Xiaolian to buy east and west, and in the end, Chen Xiaosheng could only hire a carriage to load those dowry gifts, and there were more things than those listed on the gift list. Zhou Chen stroked his beard with satisfaction and advised: "Zhishan, you take these things back and tidy them up, and I will go to Changle Fang with the matchmaker early tomorrow morning to propose marriage." ”

Chen Xiaosheng's face was full of joy, and he said respectfully: "Thank you for your hard work, in the future, Qiuyue and I will be filial to our teacher." ”

"Okay, good, with you as my students, I have no regrets in this life." Zhou Chen was very happy, and when he saw that the time was not early, he went back to the Six Arts Hall first, preparing to rest early, and have a good look to propose marriage.

Zhu Xiaolian lifted the carriage curtain and counted it, and said, "Brother, it's just a wooden box, let's go back and tidy it up after we buy it." ”

"Okay, by the way, go to Taibai Mansion to buy two vegetables, you are tired today, so don't cook." Chen Xiaosheng responded with a smile, and was just about to leave, when he suddenly felt a gaze staring at him closely, he looked back and found that staring at him was a plainly dressed woman, who seemed to be a little familiar. The woman didn't seem to expect to be discovered by him, so she was startled, and quickly lowered her head and turned to leave, her behavior was very suspicious.

Zhu Xiaolian got down from the carriage, clapped her hands and asked, "Brother?" What do you see? ”

Chen Xiaosheng frowned, looked at the woman's back again, thoughtfully, "It's nothing, it seems to see an acquaintance, it's okay, let's go, it's almost dark." ”

"Oh." Zhu Xiaolian glanced over there indifferently, and quickly discussed with Chen Xiaosheng what kind of box was good-looking.

Chen Xiaosheng walked for a while, but he still didn't remember who that woman was, he had an eye disease in his life, and he really couldn't see it clearly when he was so far away, just think about it, since that woman intended to avoid, she didn't think it was an important person.
