Chapter 423: The Autumn Moon of the Four Great Talents
Mrs. Taishi hurriedly supported Mrs. Hua and reproached: "You are so sick that you are still doing these things?" Besides, the emperor may not be willing to let you take care of it! ”
Hua Taishi said toughly: "No, the country has national laws, the family has family rules, the emperor must work hard to make my Ming prosperous and prosperous, cough cough cough cough ......"
Mrs. Taishi patted him on the back while worrying, "Are you okay?" When I beg you, can you rest well? Don't worry about those things, there are so many ministers in the DPRK and China, are they all decorations? You can't do it if you don't take care of your body! ”
Su Xueyun said: "Master, Madam is right, you really have to cultivate for a while, otherwise your body won't be able to stand it." ”
Hua Taishi waved his hand, he didn't care about his body at all, he just wanted Su Xueyun to agree to what he just said. Su Xueyun was helpless, so she had to try to persuade: "Master, if you refuse, you will resist the order, and if you don't obey the order, you will lose your head." We are just ordinary people, at most a little smarter than others, but this does not mean that we have two lives, on the contrary, we are all people who cherish our lives. ”
Su Xueyun knew that Hua Taishi was the same person as Yue Fei, and there were many such people in the world, even if the emperor was a faint monarch, he would still be loyal to death, this was a deep-rooted belief that basically couldn't be changed, especially a stubborn person of Hua Taishi's age couldn't change it. Therefore, Su Xueyun will not persuade Hua Taishi not to be serious about the emperor in vain, Hua Taishi has dedicated his life to the country, if he is asked to give up the emperor at this time, it is to let him give up the belief that he has insisted on all his life, which is tantamount to the pain of pulling bones and peeling skin, it is better to let him slowly disappoint and figure it out well.
Hua Taishi was very dissatisfied with Su Xueyun's answer, and said angrily: "I thought that you were different, the future pillars of the Ming Dynasty, but I didn't expect that you would be greedy for life and afraid of death." You go, don't come back! ”
Su Xueyun was not angry, turned her head to Mrs. Taishi and said, "Madam, I will write down the prescription for regulating the body and give it to Chunxiang, you can ask the doctor to see if it is suitable for the Taishi." ”
Mrs. Taishi nodded gratefully, but Taishi snorted coldly and didn't look at her. Su Xueyun smiled and asked Shang Chunxiang to turn around and leave. Such an old man who is in the public service, for the country and the people, and who loves and protects his wife and children in private is worthy of respect. Even if they don't agree on ideas, Su Xueyun will not take back this respect because he loses his temper once.
After that, Su Xueyun left the recipe and went home, and she didn't plan to go to the Taishi Mansion again in a short time, if it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Taishi was too similar to the second sister, she wouldn't often go to chat with Mrs. Taishi. Now that Chen Xiaosheng is firmly established in the capital, and the Treasure Pavilion is also on track, Su Xueyun pondered to do something else when he was free. It's not that she doesn't want to be idle, but it's really not easy to live in ancient times, and if you want to live well, you have to work hard to get power. Otherwise, even if their husband and wife can be recluses, what about their children and grandchildren? Therefore, once in ancient times, Su Xueyun would want to save a lot of tangible and intangible wealth and pass it on to future generations.
This time, Su Xueyun's plan is to open a medical hall, the school is to teach people to read, and her medical hall is to teach people to practice medicine. Reading can be reasonable, practicing medicine can save lives, and now it is still the concept of teaching apprentices to starve to death of masters, and doctors accepting apprentices are like taking a small follower, it will take a long time to teach them to practice medicine independently, even if they are all taught, they will keep their hands so as not to be squeezed out. As a result, many skills are lost in the hands of these people, making one generation worse than the next, but I don't know who to blame.
Su Xueyun has now established a medical hall, and the students recruited are divided into two batches of men and women, because it is a feudal society, Su Xueyun cannot be too maverick, which will also bring a lot of trouble to others, so she separates the male and female classes and teaches them separately, and will also focus on teaching according to the students' personal wishes.
At first, there were not many people in her medical hall, only a few people who were very interested in medical skills but couldn't find a master to try their luck. However, Su Xueyun's medical skills could not disappoint anyone, and after a few demonstrations, several of Su Xueyun's students were convinced and respectful to her.
Su Xueyun's medical hall doesn't need to prepare anything, it opens quickly, and her main purpose is not to make money, just to benefit the people and expand her contacts and create a reputation, so she is not in a hurry, even if there are only a few students, she patiently teaches them every day.
Chen Xiaosheng and the three of them also did a very good job in the Ministry of Industry, no one was in charge, and the emperor gave them a lot of power, and they naturally did not encounter anything bad, and it didn't take long for the cement method and the perfect bicycle to report to the emperor. The emperor had toys before, and he had great patience with them, and when he heard that Hua Wenwu had perfected these two things, he immediately ordered them to be responsible for the popularization of these new inventions. Together with the last automatic waterwheel that could be connected to the water pipe, this time there are three new inventions to be passed on to the people.
Chen Xiaosheng and they were very happy to receive this task, and felt that the hard-working invention could finally be meaningful, but who knew that when they asked for silver from the household department, they learned that the treasury was empty, and the silver was used for the construction of the leopard house. The emperor was very expectant of the leopard room proposed by King Ning, and decided to abandon the palace after the leopard room was built, and move to the leopard room to live, and he didn't even need to go to the court. The leopard room where the emperor wants to live is naturally more important than any other road construction, how can there be any silver to divide it?
Chen Xiaosheng asked the emperor to react to this problem, and the emperor was just stunned for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Oh, forget if you don't have any money, anyway, the people have lived the same life for so many years, and it doesn't matter if you build roads or not." Aren't those waterwheels and bicycles cheap? Tell that one out. ”
Chen Xiaosheng no longer had hope for the emperor, so he could only print countless copies of the drawings of waterwheels and bicycles with Hua Wenwu and Zhou Wenbin and send them to the people. Naturally, some ministers in the DPRK and China objected to their approach, saying that these two inventions were priceless and should be used to earn silver to fill the treasury. But Chen Xiaosheng and Zhou Wenbin had no interest in this kind of exploitation of the people by the imperial court, and both of them were sleek and intelligent people, so they fooled them with gags and insisted on publishing the drawings for free. In fact, even if everyone has the drawings, not everyone can make them, and the civil order will not be chaotic, only the court can't collect the silver, so they will do it.
Wen Zhengming knew about this and strengthened his determination to leave, planning to leave for Suzhou after he and Zhu Pingting got married. Zhou Wenbin and Zhu Xiaolian have a stable relationship and got married on the same day as them. Su Xueyun and Chen Xiaosheng are relatives and friends, and they have been busy for many days, and on the day of marriage, Su Xueyun promised to give Zhu Xiaolian the first branch opened by Zhenbao Pavilion as a dowry, and also gave a house in a prosperous area of the capital, and two big Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the city.
With the extent to which the Treasure Pavilion is now prosperous in Beijing, Su Xueyun is definitely a big deal, plus the many rare treasures she got from the treasure, I wish Xiaolian's dowry is not worse than Zhu Pingting! Zhou Wenbin and Zhu Xiaolian have no elders, and when they get married, they must give Su Xueyun and Chen Xiaosheng tea, thank them for their care, and be even more grateful for their cultivation.
Wen Zhengming brought his mother in advance, and Mrs. Wen was very unhappy with the identity of the county lord, she preferred to marry her son a gentle wife who could take care of people and take care of the house, rather than a county lord like Zhu Pingting, who was indiscriminate and arrogant. But the emperor's marriage is a supreme honor, not to mention that the Wen family has been loyal and patriotic for generations, how can they be dissatisfied with the holy decree? So although Mrs. Wen didn't like King Ning's high-minded appearance very much, she still gave Zhu Tingting a good face and did what a good mother-in-law should be. Zhu Pingting naturally reciprocated the favor, thinking about her mother-in-law in everything, the two got along well, at least they didn't quarrel once when they were in the capital, which made Su Xueyun feel a lot more relieved.
After the two couples got married, Wen Zhengming took his mother and wife back to Suzhou, Zhou Wenbin and Zhu Xiaolian also moved to the new house, and there were only three people during dinner, Su Xueyun and their husband and wife and Qiu Xiang, and the family was a lot colder.
Su Xueyun sighed casually when she was eating, "In the past, everyone had a lively and lively big table of people, and they all ate deliciously, but I didn't expect that now there are only three of us left, and it will be even more boring to wait for Qiu Xiang to get married." ”
Qiu Xiang blushed all of a sudden, lowered her head and said, "Sister, what are you talking about, how could I marry so early?" And even if I get married, I will definitely not marry far away, I will not go anywhere else, and I can come back to see my sister at any time. ”
Su Xueyun paused for a meal, raised her eyebrows and looked at Qiu Xiang, and said, "I just mentioned it, I didn't say anything like marrying far away, why did Qiu Xiang think so far?" Won't it ...... You've got someone you like, right? ”
Chen Xiaosheng put down the bowl and said, "Who is Qiu Xiang?" If you really have someone you like, you can tell me and your sister, and we can help you see how that person's character is. ”
Qiu Xiang's face turned even redder, and the whole person almost fell into the bowl, and said in a low voice like a gnat: "Sister, brother-in-law, there really isn't." I just said I didn't want to marry far away from you, it's good to marry like Xiaolian and be in the capital with you, oh, don't talk about this, the dishes are cold, I'll go hot! ”
Qiu Xiang got up abruptly and ran to the kitchen with two dishes. Chen Xiaosheng pointed to the remaining two dishes with chopsticks and said, "Qiu Xiang is okay, right?" The dish is still bubbling. ”
Su Xueyun smiled and said: "Qiu Xiang was nervous as soon as she lied, she just repeatedly emphasized that she didn't want to marry far away, and she didn't want to mention it, it was obvious that she had met someone from other places who made her fall in love." During this time, I have been going out early and returning late, and I haven't noticed, who could it be? ”
Su Xueyun thought about the person who might be favored by Qiu Xiang, and after a while, a name appeared in her mind, although she thought it was unlikely, but thinking about what Qiu Xiang said just now, she felt very consistent. If Qiu Xiang really chose this person, it would really be far away from marriage, and I don't know how many times I will see each other in the future. But if it's this person, it should be good for Qiu Xiang, and it's not easy to find a dedicated person in ancient times, and the advantages and disadvantages are really difficult to choose, I'm afraid in the end I can only see how tempting Qiu Xiang is!
