17. Fighting

That old man is Sun Xuanpei, the current patriarch of the Sun family, naturally knows Li Zhang's name, others are afraid of Li Zhang, but he is not afraid.

He leaned on the old man and said to Li Zhang: "Mr. Li, this is your fault, children can know etiquette and etiquette, and kowtow to you to say goodbye, but why don't you accept it?" Since you don't recognize this daughter and grandson, why do you put up a big hat of unfilial piety to oppress people? Why do you say that Han'er is not filial? He is so young, what unfilial things can he do? Besides, my great-nephew doesn't dare to say anything else, if he says it's filial piety, there is no comparison with him! ”

He paused for crutches and said to Li Zhang coldly: "Mr. Li, tell me what mistake Han Oak has made, and it is worth your call like this?" If he is really wrong, his father and mother will teach him, no matter how bad it is, there are still the rules of my clan, I am the patriarch of the old man, I will discipline him, and I dare not teach you as an outsider! ”

When Li Zhang heard this, he almost didn't spit out a mouthful of blood, and spat fiercely: "Phew! It's just a merchant and a peddler, you know what etiquette is! Only parents like you, who don't know etiquette and are complacent, can teach this brute who kills his brother and rebels against his ancestors! ”

Sun Xuanpei scolded with a cane: "You are a false Taoist and hypocrite who is disrespectful to the old!"

The two old men went back and forth, tearing each other apart, and there was a great sense that the more noisy they were, the more vigorous they were. Han Li and his family persuaded this and that, on the surface, they persuaded peace, and secretly added fuel to the fire and instigated a few times, the two old men quarreled so much that their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they each rolled up their sleeves and punched, you grabbed my beard, I pulled your face, and Ping Pong started to move.

Seeing that the fire was about the same, Han Oak hurriedly tore the two old fighting cocks apart, and the two of them were screaming and scolding from the family members who were pulling the shelf.

It's tearing up the excitement here, and the neighbors who are watching the excitement have already reported to the official. The messenger came over to see that he was happy, only to see that the two white-bearded old men who were more than 100 years old were fighting, and the few strands of hair and beard were pulled off, and the rest were sparse and miserable hanging on the old faces of the green and black ones, one nostril was "whirring" and steaming white, and the other chest was pulling the bellows and couldn't help but change the air.

When Han Oak saw the messenger coming, he hurriedly stuffed the two messengers with a silver ingot each. The errand officer saw that there were two old men fighting, and they both had identities, so they were not too embarrassed. It's just that seeing that the two of them have the intention of not dying, they had to bring a cadre and others to the Yangzhou Mansion.

Halfway through, Sun Zhangyang, who heard the news, hurried back from Daming Temple, and had no choice but to follow up to the lobby.

The current Yangzhou prefect is called Gong Wei, and he has only been in office for a few days a few days ago. I haven't had time to appreciate the bustling scenery of Yangzhou. On this day, because the New Year's holiday has not yet come to the opening of the office, I was greedy for a few more cups at noon, and as soon as I got up from a nap, I heard that two old scholars had a fight and went to court, and I was very surprised. It is said that Yangzhou is prosperous and the characters are romantic, but they don't know that the people are so fierce.

When he came to Shangdetang, it was Li Zhang who acted as the plaintiff and sued the businessman Sun Zhangyang for his lax family education, which caused Sun Hanqi, the young master of the Sun Mansion, to be disloyal and unfilial, and did something against his ancestors and hurt his brother. The patriarch of the Sun family disrespects his teachers and shields the children of the clan as evil.

Gong Wei heard Sun Zhangyang's name and was shocked. ‘

It turned out that Gong Wei's father-in-law was the current official Shangshu Shang Pingqi. Gong Wei's hometown is Datong, Shanxi. This time, it happened that Gu Guangyi, the Hanlin of the Hanlin Academy, released the prefect of Datong, this Gu Guangyi is a native of Yangzhou, and he is also from the Shangpingqi sect. Gu Gong and the two became friends with each other, but it was just to take care of each other. Among them, Gu Guangyi asked Gong Wei to take special care of Sun Zhangyang's family.

Gong Wei remained silent and passed Sun Zhangyang's father and son to the court.

Sun Zhangyang came to the court just to bow to Gong Wei because he was a person; Han Oak fell on the ground smartly and kowtowed first.

Gong Wei saw that Sun Zhangyang's character was gentle and handsome, not like a murderer; When I saw Han Quercus again, I couldn't help but smile.

I saw that Sun Hanqi had a small pigtail on his head, and two golden bells were tied, and there was a crisp sound when he moved; He was wearing a cotton jacket and pants made of red and gold satin, and his eyes were black and smart, like two black grapes. smiled sweetly at Gong Wei, revealing two round laughing nests and a mouthful of thin white rice teeth.

Gong Wei couldn't cry or laugh, just Han Li's age, but he was only four or five years old, and what heinous things could he do. Wen Yan said to Han Li: "Do you know why your grandfather sued you in court? ”

Han Oak knelt on the ground, not shocked or stunned, and raised his head and replied: "Tell the eldest master: The little grandfather sued the little ancestor for hurting his brother." It was because my grandfather had married a new concubine and gave all my grandmother's jewelry; Originally, this was a family affair of my grandfather's family, and it was not easy for us to intervene as children and grandchildren. It's just that my grandmother was sick in bed, and my mother was worried about my grandmother's condition, so the boy asked the famous doctor Mr. Ye Da to consult my grandmother. My grandfather thought it was too small to let the doctor in. And because my uncle's cousin wanted to join my house yesterday and thought that I was in the way of my life, he pushed me into the lotus pond. When his aunt took him back yesterday, he was still alive, but the little one drank sweating medicine for a day yesterday. These are the truths, since the parents asked, the villain did not dare to respect the elders, so they told the truth. ”

Gong Wei saw that Han Li was young but cheerful, and he was also sophisticated in his language, witty and interesting. I can't help but like him even more.

He also asked Sun Xuanpei: "Since you are the patriarch of the Sun family, you should be reserved as a respected elder, how can you not value your identity, like a pawn of a peddler, and be an old fist on the street, but where is Sven?" ”

Sun Xuanpei kowtowed and shouted: "Master Qiyu: It's not that the little old man doesn't care about Sven, it's actually that Li Zhang'er wants to beat Han Quercus to death on the street, and the little old man can't persuade him, so he has to pull him, I don't want that Li Zhang'er to beat me." If Xiao Lao'er doesn't fight back, can he still be beaten to death? This kind of person like Li Zhang'er, usually the little old man can't hide when he sees him, if it weren't for the sake of saving Han Quercus, how could I be willing to fall into my own value and pull with this kind of person? How can I disrespect my teacher? Where is this old man worthy of being a teacher! Besides, Xiao Lao'er is seventy and eight this year, how can he be a few years older than him, shouldn't he respect me more, why even beat me? ”

Li Zhang was so angry that he couldn't care about being in court at the moment, and grabbed Sun Xuanpei: "I'll kill you, a old man!" You've just been bought by that little beast's tiger bone wine, and you're here to slander me upside down! ”
