Chapter 20: Little Sage Village
The guy stared blankly at the interaction between Dongfang Wei's brother and sister, and tears flowed involuntarily. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info made Dongfang the only stunned, I don't know what happened, why did this guy cry, he didn't recruit him?
Dongfang Wei took out a piece of brass the size of a soybean on his waist and threw it at the young man, who took it neatly.
"You'll be rewarded."
It's not that the East is stingy, there is not much gold in this era, and brass, which is similar to gold, is also called gold at this time, which is almost equivalent to gold. The salaries of the Qin State, that is, the salaries of civil servants, were all distributed grain.
The rewards given by the emperor are generally some land, cloth, gold and silver, etc., and gold is usually replaced by brass. Brass, while not worth much more than real gold, is not much worse.
If brass is not used instead, where did the emperor get so much gold to reward meritorious ministers?
The young man accepted the brass, hurriedly bowed and thanked Dongfang Wei for his reward, and then exited the lobby with a layer of oily water.
This meal is a happy meal, especially Yaya, who has been dressed and fed since she was a child, where can she stand the food in the army, that is, she felt fresh at first, but after a few days, the freshness passed, and the hard days came.
Fortunately, it has already passed, in order to facilitate Yaya's future study, Dongfang Wei has already sent someone to enter Songhai in advance and buy a courtyard near Xiaoshengxian Village.
The estate is located on a small hill, and there are no other buildings on the hill except for the small sage, so the manor is at the foot of the hill.
After eating Bai Tu's reception banquet, Dongfang Wei and Yaya went straight to the receiving courtyard.
Dongfang Wei is very satisfied with this not very big yard, this yard is only 300 square meters, the houses are not compact, and there are some rockery flower beds, which are also exquisite. In this era, the land was vast and sparsely populated, and the houses of 300 square meters were nothing, and some of the rich and noble families had manors that were several times larger than ordinary villages.
Yaya will also like it here, because it is a hill with a gentle slope, and the vegetation on the hill is luxuriant, and from time to time there are small animals running out.
The little girl always loves fluffy little animals.
The next day, Dongfang Wei cleaned up the little girl and put on the newly bought emerald green skirt. The two hiked up the mountain.
There is only one path in the mountains, and horse-drawn carriages can barely pass through it, and you can reach the small sage village by following the path uphill.
Soon, Dongfang Wei arrived at the Little Sage Village, the gate of the Little Sage Village was very open, there was not a trace of weeds or sundries on the ground, and it was obvious that someone was cleaning it often.
What makes people vomit is that a long staircase has been built in front of the gate.
Dongfang Wei hugged Yaya and stepped forward to knock on the door with a copper ring.
After a while, a half-grown man dressed in a Confucian robe opened the door and walked out.
"What is this gentleman doing here? Is it a visit to relatives or friends? ”
Xiao Shengxian Village is known as 3,000 disciples, although in reality there are only about 1,000 people, but the vast majority of scholars live in Xiao Shengxian Village, so that every month some people come here to visit relatives and friends.
Dongfang Wei came to enroll Yaya in school this time, so naturally she couldn't wear armor, just a simple plain robe, and her hair was spread out and dragged behind her back. If it weren't for the fact that Dongfang Weichang was a little darker, he would still look like a scribe at first glance.
"Little sir, I want my sister to enroll here, I don't know who to find?" Dongfang Wei came to ask someone to do something, his posture was very low, and he was also very polite to the boy who guarded the door.
"Sir, wait a minute, I'll pass it on." The boy shook his wide sleeves, put the back of his left hand against the palm of his right hand, bent down and bowed, turned and walked away.
After a while, the boy brought over a young man dressed in a lilac robe with a good demeanor.
"This gentleman, this is Mr. Yan Lu, the second master of my Little Sage Village. The second master, this is the gentleman who came here to study. ”
When Dongfang Wei first saw this person, he felt that his demeanor was extraordinary, but he didn't expect it to be the second master of the Little Sage Village, so he hurriedly saluted:
"I didn't expect it to be Mr. Yan Lu in person, it's really rude."
As for the little girl, she had long been hiding behind Dongfang Wei, and the little girl stretched out her head and shrunk her head.
"Mr. Guan is murderous and introverted, and his demeanor is moderate, when he is a fierce general on the battlefield, why did he come to study in Confucianism? Mr. should go to the soldier's house to study. Yan Lu returned the salute and said.
Dongfang Wei was stunned, he didn't expect Yan Lu to recognize him as a soldier as soon as they met. But he clearly misunderstood what he was here for.
"Mr. Yan Lu, I am not studying in the next place, but I am studying in my sister."
Yan Lu looked at the little girl who was taken out by Dongfang Wei with a shocked face, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time. The Little Sage Village has been inherited for hundreds of years, and it has never accepted a female disciple.
"Sir, don't be joking." Yan Lu is colorful.
"I'm not kidding."
"But my little sage village has never had a girl enrolled, how can this precedent be set."
Yan Lu is gentle and indifferent. Xiao Shengxian Zhuang has never asked about the background of the disciple for hundreds of years, but there is no precedent for letting a woman enter the school like this, although Yan Lu wants to accept Yaya into the school, it is not easy to set this precedent.
The atmosphere was awkward all at once.
"If you don't let it, you won't let it, I'm not rare." Seeing that her brother was rejected, Yaya pouted and was a little angry.
"It's not that I won't let it, it's that there are no women studying in my little Sage Village, and this man and woman can't kiss each other, and it's not convenient for women to study here." Yan Lu explained with a gentle smile to the little girl.
The little girl was originally a lively character, so she was reluctant to learn hyphenation, but she was still very angry when she saw her brother being rejected.
"Brother, let's go, and you will teach me the skills to fight in the future. When I grow up, I will be a great general like you. The little girl held Dongfang Wei's hand and dragged it back.
Dongfang Wei is also a face-saving person, since the people of Xiao Shengxian Village have refused, he will not beg him with a dead face.
"Farewell." Dongfang Wei picked up the little girl and turned around and left, without hesitation.
Dongfang Wei returned to the courtyard at the bottom of the mountain, very angry in his heart, and said in his heart: Lao Tzu was a college student in his previous life, I don't believe that I can't teach a child well, you don't want to accept it, I will teach it myself, I will also have 300 Tang poems, will you?
Yan Lu sighed and wandered alone on the path in the Little Sage Village.
"Senior brother, what's the matter, why are you sighing."
Yan Lu paused slightly, and saw a man walking towards him behind him, this person had a slight beard under his chin, wearing a green Confucian robe, and was about thirty years old. This person is the big boss of the Little Sage Village.
This Fu Nian, Yan Lu and Zhang Liang are from the same school, and they are the three most outstanding Confucian disciples under Xunzi, known as the three heroes of Qilu.
"Senior brother, there is only one person who is studying outside the mountain gate, and I refused."
"My Confucianism has opened the door widely, and anyone who seeks a scholar, as long as he has a good character, can enter the school, why does the junior refuse?" Fu Nian said with a frown.
"Hey, that person is studying for her sister, how can there be a female enrollment in the Little Sage Village, not to mention that there are all men in the village, and the enrollment of women is also the same."
"Oh? That being the case, why sigh. ”
"Although that person is murderous and restrained, when I look at him, I seem to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, I am afraid that person will hold a grudge against the little sage village."
