Chapter 42: Knocking
Zhao Rong didn't swallow a mouthful of cheese in his mouth, almost choked, coughed several times, with tears in his eyes, and raised his eyes, "You? Please? ”
Zhao Jiuqing was also confused, Song Yanzhu nodded and said, "It is indeed something to ask for." Sixth Brother Zhao, what do you think of my brother? ”
Zhao Rong said: "Lively and cute, innocent and natural, smart and clever." ”
"What if I want him to worship under Lord Zhu Jue?" Song Yanzhu is colorful.
Zhao Rong was stunned, gradually put down the food in his hand, and looked at Song Heqing beside Song Yanzhu with a somewhat stern expression.
Lord Zhu Jue has been in Jianzhou for a while, and gradually some people have begged him. In the past few days alone, more than ten people have come to visit every day, but no one can see Lord Zhu Jue, and every time he goes to the gate, he is politely invited away by the doorman. Among them, there are many children of the Jianzhou family, compared with Song Heqing, their qualifications and family affairs are not inferior, or even better.
Zhu Jue once said to Zhao Rong and Tao Moyan that he had worked hard for officials all his life, and he just wanted to find a place to live quietly for the rest of his life.
It's just that these three words came to his mouth, but Zhao Rong couldn't say it, just because of the many expectations in Song Yanzhu's sincere eyes.
Is...... It's hard. It would be good if Tao Moyan was here at this time, maybe he could still figure out how to reply to Song Yanzhu with euphemism and decency - oh no, the two of them seem to be incompatible, if Tao Moyan is here, I am afraid that a mocking sneer will send Song Yanzhu away.
Zhao Rong scratched his head, and Zhao Jiuqing urged in a low voice: "If there is anything bad to say in front of the second sister, if you can, you can, if you can't, you can't, there is always a quasi-letter!" ”
"That's not the case...... Zhao Rong pondered the language and said: "The teacher's temperament is a little withdrawn, I'm afraid I won't agree." ”
"I'm not here to embarrass Sixth Brother Zhao," Song Yanzhu said, "Since ancient times, teachers have their own set of guidelines for accepting apprentices, and Lord Zhu Jue is everyone, so naturally he also has his own standards." I just hope that Brother Zhao Liuge can help me deliver a letter to Lord Zhu Jue, maybe after Lord Zhu Gui reads it, he is willing to give us a chance to meet him, it is not impossible. ”
Zhao Rong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, "If it's just a letter, it's really just a gesture, and there's no difficulty." He paused and asked with a bit of curiosity, "As far as I know, the teacher is notoriously stubborn, even the saint is afraid of him, and the second sister doesn't know what is in the letter?" How sure are you that you can convince him? ”
Song Yanzhu shook his head and said: "It's just to do your best, listen to the destiny of heaven, if you have the opportunity, you have to think of ways to fight for it, if it can really be done, one is God's blessing, and the other is also the credit of the sixth brother."
Zhao Rong saw that Song Yanzhu refused to say any more, so he took the letter with a light smile, and Song Yanzhu pushed Song Heqing, "Brother He'er, haven't you thanked Brother Zhao Liu?" ”
Song Heqing was about to bend down, but was stopped by Zhao Rong and said, "Sixth brother can't help you, I can only help you be a messenger, and the rest depends on you." Besides, my second aunt is still your aunt, our two families are relatives, we are both a family, so we don't have to be so formal. ”
"But isn't it," Zhao Jiuqing said with a smile, "If you continue to be so polite, it will make us embarrassed, I have received so many gifts from you, and I can only help you with this little favor......" The words stopped abruptly, she suddenly remembered something, and said to Zhao Rong, "Didn't you just tell me yesterday that Lord Zhu was unbearable, and found a way to go out to avoid the limelight, and he couldn't come back in half a month?" How do you give the letter of the second sister? ”
Zhao Rong patted his head and said, "Look at my memory!" Quite apologetically explained to Song Yanzhu, "The teacher is really not at home for half a month, so I can only ask the second sister to wait......
Zhao Jiuqing said: "My family has a Zhuangzi near Anping Village, where the scenery is picturesque, quiet and peaceful, and more importantly, there are natural hot springs there, which will soak in the hot springs, which is the best." Yesterday, my sixth brother and I were still discussing, taking advantage of the good weather in spring, we are going to live for half a month, just as self-cultivation, I am worried that there is no female dependent to accompany me, why not the second sister go with me? ”
"This ......" Song Yanzhu was hesitating, and Zhao Jiuqing persuaded softly, "I won't have a free life in half a year...... It's rare that we fall in love, you can't ruin my interest. ”
How can it take half a year, Xu is a month, she has to be married with peace of mind, and when she arrives in Beijing, she is the daughter-in-law of others, and she has to manage the family, and it is really rare to want to be as smooth as she is now.
Song Yanzhu was still hesitating, Zhao Rong said smoothly: "That's it, I can also bring Brother He'er, I will take him to study together, and by the way, I can also point him out, although I am not talented, but I am also a close disciple of the teacher, and I always know some of his preferences." ”
Song Yanzhu was almost convinced, Zhao Jiuqing saw her wandering, and simply clapped her and said: "That's it, I'll go and ask my mother to write a letter to Second Mrs. Song for me, I believe Second Mrs. Song will agree!" ”
Zhao Jiuqing is really a resolute person, Song Yanzhu just returned to the mansion on the front foot, and the Jin family on the back foot asked her to come over, saying that Mrs. Zhao sent someone to send a letter, sincerely inviting Song Yanzhu and Song Heqing to go to Zhao's Zhuangzi in Anping Village. Song Yanzhu told the Jin family about today's situation, and the Jin family wrinkled his brows and said: "It would be good if you could let Brother He'er study by Zhao Rong's side for a few days, but you haven't been far away since you were young, I'm just afraid that you won't be able to take care of yourself......"
Song Yanzhu said: "Mother, don't worry, I heard Sister Jiu say, although it is just a Zhuangzi, but Master Zhao and Mrs. Zhao will go to live for a few days every spring, and everything is very complete." Besides, Brother He'er has me watching, and there won't be any big mess. ”
Jin thought about it, "That being said, you are going out to represent the girl of the Song family, and you still have to be vigilant in everything." The ninth lady of the Zhao family has a valuable character and is reasonable, you are beside her, you should also learn more from her strengths, understand? ”
"My daughter knows!" Song Yanzhu replied properly, and was thinking about retiring, but Jin's eyes fell sharply on Chu Xia's body, and he seemed to ask casually, "Why haven't you seen peony recently?" ”
Song Yanzhu replied: "She has been sick for some days. ”
"Sick?" Jin took a sip of tea idly, and didn't know how to speak, Song Yanzhu couldn't figure out what she meant, and replied: "She has always been in bad health." ”
Jin put down the teacup slowly, "The old lady only asked me this morning, Brother He'er is also getting older, and the people who are waiting around him should also add a few, and I asked you again." A few days ago, because of your father's affairs, I was negligent to you and Brother He'er, and when I asked recently, I realized that those people in your house are really unruly. If it doesn't work, simply move out, change someone, and the maid next to you, but if you are greedy and slippery, you can sue me, if you want to change, simply change it all! ”
