43. Zheng Jiashui Division
Fang Jing stepped aside, and Mrs. Lu was taken aback when she saw Cen Jiu carrying three buckets of water behind her, and immediately stepped aside, letting Cen Jiu come in, and said, "Why did Lao Lu instruct the child to help him work, this old man is really true." ”
"It's okay, Xiao Jiu has a lot of strength." Fang Jing got out of the way, Cen Jiu carried the water into the house, and under the guidance of Professor Lu, he replaced the water dispenser in the living room with water, and put two buckets of spare pure water in the designated place.
"Xiao Chen, thank you." Professor Lu smiled kindly, and his perception of Cen Jiu was even better.
This young man is good, although he is a little taciturn, but the young man looks energetic and strong, and he tastes too much for his old man.
Fang Jing took out a velvet box and handed it over: "A little thing for my wife." ”
Mrs. Lu happily took it, opened it and looked at it, and was stunned: "Hey, this is too precious." As he spoke, he stuffed it into Fang Jing's hand and said, "Such a beautiful golden pearl, keep it for your girlfriend, my wife is too old to use this kind of thing." ”
"Beautiful things must be matched with beautiful people, and such an elegant and generous person as my wife is more compatible with gold pearls." Fang Jing's mouth was like smeared with honey, which made Mrs. Lu laugh.
Professor Lu is a boring old pedant, but the wife of Mrs. Lu is a famous violinist in China, who performs abroad from time to time.
As an elegant and interesting artist, I have to say that Fang Jing's gift is exactly what she wants.
"You kid is really, your mouth is so sweet, if only you could be as active as coaxing a girl to be like a mother." Mrs. Lu said angrily, "Is this your friend?" The young man is so handsome. ”
"This is my friend Cen Jiu." Fang Jing stabbed Cen Jiu with his elbow and motioned for him to call someone.
"Mrs. Lu." Cen Jiu was stunned for a moment, and followed Fang Jing to call people.
The wife covered her mouth and smiled, beckoning the two to sit down.
The living room of the Lu family is not big, there is a rattan chair on the side near the balcony, and a root carved coffee table, on the coffee table is a set of purple sand tea sets, and there is an unfinished bottle boat next to the tea set, which is Professor Lu's territory at a glance.
Fang Jing bent down and leaned over to look at it twice: "Yo, when did the teacher become obsessed with this?" ”
Professor Lu smiled, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said, "Xiao Fang still recognizes this?" This is a senior brother of yours who designed it for me and gave it to me, which is quite interesting, but it takes a lot of eyes. ”
Fang Jing asked, "What kind of ship is this?" ”
Thanks to the blessing of the water bubbles, as long as he sees the boat now, he will subconsciously beat his heart, and he has already formed a conditioned reflex. ”
"The boat, the Ming and Qing dynasties were banned, and the Ming Dynasty sailors were vulnerable, but there was a famous Zheng family sailor, the navy led by Zheng Chenggong, combined with the style of the Fu ship and the Western plywood ship, and created the big boat, Zheng Jing era made zuò small boat, and achieved the famous Zheng family sailor."
Fang Jing's heart moved, and said, "This is the pioneer ship of the Zheng family's sailors who expelled the Dutch fleet that invaded the treasure island of Keelung in 1668?" He also said, "It's a pity that such a generation of maritime hegemons was finally defeated by internal and external troubles." ”
Fang Jing always felt that if the Zheng family's naval army was not defeated and followed the policy of maritime hegemony of the previous generation, perhaps the history of the Opium War might be rewritten.
When it comes to the history of the Ming and Qing dynasties, Professor Lu has much more say than Fang Jing, a half-bucket of water. The old man sat on a wicker chair making tea, talked about history, and began to talk endlessly.
"After Zheng Jing's death, Zheng Jiashui fought for power and profit, hanged Zheng Kezang, the eldest son of Zheng Jing, and supported the second son Zheng Kezhang, Zheng Kexuan inherited the throne of Yanping, only eleven years old, such a child, how can he lead the Zheng family water division, and the power fell into the hands of Zheng Jing's brother Zheng Cong. Zheng Cong was both incompetent and cowardly, and when he was less than two years old, he was conquered by Shi Lang, the commander of the Qing Shui Division, and Zheng Kexuan repaired the table and handed over the seal to the Qing Dynasty, and the vigorous Zheng family sailor collapsed like this. ”
Professor Lu sighed: "It is rumored that Zheng Kezhang is resolute and courageous, and he has the style of an ancestor, but it is a pity that he died early, otherwise the Zheng family sailor would not have been able to survive for three years after Zheng Jing's death." ”
It was a generation of maritime hegemons, and even the Dutch fleet at that time could only avoid its edge and tolerate it for the time being.
Fang Jing thought to himself, the blessing is not more than three generations, it is really good, Zheng Zhilong created the famous Zheng family sailor as a pirate, Zheng Chenggong pushed the Zheng family sailor to an unparalleled new height, to the grandchildren, less than three generations after Zheng Jing's death, the Zheng family sailor fell apart, and I don't know how the ancestors of the Zheng family would feel.
"The Zheng family has been controlling the waters of East China and South China for decades, and has amassed huge wealth. As soon as it is said that after Zheng Chenggong's death, it is expected that his children and grandchildren will not be angry, and he will leave a hand, and the secret faction will secretly carry part of the family wealth to the south by boat, in order to make a comeback in the future; It is said that Zheng Kezhang had a concubine who was pregnant at that time, and after Zheng Kezang's death, the family would take this widow to flee overseas by boat and defect to Zheng Zhilong's actual second son, Tagawa Nanazaemon. ”
"Regardless of the historical biography, everyone speculates that the ship carried a large amount of Zheng family finances at that time, for this reason, many people in later generations went overseas, hoping to obtain the Zheng family's lost treasure, until the Qianlong period implemented a trade policy, this kind of treasure hunting activities gradually disappeared, as for the treasure ship full of Zheng family property, whether it survives or not, no one knows."
Fang Jing thought to himself, he didn't know if it was a treasure ship, but the nautical chart in his hand must be related to the Zheng family's sea ship, and he was sure.
The master and apprentice were talking lively, but Mrs. Lu was not satisfied, glared at Professor Lu, and said: "It's not enough for you to ponder the history of the Ming and Qing dynasties every day, it's hard to rest, and you have to pull the child at home to chatter, don't you bother!" Don't go stir-fry and cook yet. ”
Don't look at Professor Lu is a big professor respected by everyone outside, and when he arrives at home, he is an ordinary little old man, and when Mrs. Lu roars, she obediently gets up and cooks herself.
casually sent the old man who was in the way of cooking in the kitchen, and Mrs. Lu beckoned Fang Jing to sit down on the sofa and said, "Xiao Xin is studying medicine, studying in the United States, and now interning at Santa Maria General Hospital, it is rare to come back once, speaking of which, you are really fateful." You young people talk by yourself, I won't please you, Lao Lu is a kitchen killer, I have to keep an eye on it, otherwise we won't be able to eat tomorrow. ”
Fang Jing: "......"
Okay, he knew that his wife wanted to introduce him to a girlfriend, but don't show it so obviously, okay? He is a big man who likes men, even if he can't have ideas about beautiful girls, this is not the right gender in the first place!
The three of them sat in a row on the sofa, Fang Jing held the teacup and began to gurgle and pour water, Cen Jiu sat up straight, looking at his nose and nose, and didn't say a word.
Li Junxin, that is, the daughter of Mrs. Lu's friend, has been secretly looking at Fang Jing and Cen Jiu with those big eyes with eye shadow, and her eyes are full of curiosity.
"Are you Uncle Lu's student?"
Fang Jing nodded: "Yes, I took a professor's class in college." "His work in the museum is still through Professor Lu's back door!
"Then you must know a lot about artifacts." Li Junxin blinked his big eyes, thought for a while, and said, "Then do you often go to the antique street and accidentally pick up a leak or something?" ”
Fang Jing looked at her speechlessly.
People who mix in the antique street, who doesn't have two brushes, and still pick up leaks?
At his level, no one will believe him if he is not wronged.
"Read less YY novels in the future." Fang Jing's words were serious and authentic.
Li Junxin looked surprised: "How do you know that I read novels at Dianjia, I like to see that peerless ghost eye pupil the most, and I also rewarded the author with a thousand yuan!" ”
Fang Jing: "......"
"You're also Uncle Lu's student?" Li Junxin looked at Cen Jiu again.
Cen Jiu shook his head very nobly and coldly.
"So what do you do?" Li Junxin asked curiously.
Cen Jiu thought for a moment and replied honestly: "I moved bricks at the construction site for two days before, and now I am studying in the blind class and taking the exam on Saturday." ”
Li Junxin: "......"
Such a handsome man is actually illiterate! Li Junxin suddenly felt that the sky was thundering, and he felt that it was a pity.
Today's young people, although it is not said that everyone goes to college, there are still very few pure illiterates who need to go to the literacy class to study, okay, Cen Jiu is so handsome that he is actually a pure illiterate, it really makes people not know what to say.
"Come on, you'll be able to pass the test." Li Junxin said to Cen Jiu encouragingly.
Fang Jing had been paying attention to Li Junxin's reaction, and seeing that she didn't show disdain for Cen Jiu, deep down he also had a good impression of this hearty girl.
As a medical girl who has been influenced by the culture of the United States, Li Junxin has a hearty and unpretentious personality, and from time to time asks Fang Jing some interesting things when he was studying, and when he sees the photos of the fishing village stored in Fang Jing's mobile phone, he is amazed, and he shouts that he must go to the fishing village to live in the future.
"Zhu Zhi and I have built a farmhouse, and you can come back to play after it is built, and I will give you a discount." Fang Jing generously invited.
"Discounts only?" Li Junxin blinked his big bright eyes with a sly expression.
"Can you give it for free?" Fang Jing said helplessly.
"That's pretty much it."
Mrs. Lu peeked her head out of the kitchen and smiled with relief when she saw the three people who were talking happily (foggy).
"Xiao Fang, this kid, is handsome, has a solid and stable personality, and seems to be quite compatible with Xiao Xin."
Professor Lu washed the vegetables in his hands and said, "Why do you think Xiao Xin and Xiao Fang get along, I think Xiao Chen is also good." ”
Mrs. Lu was happy: "Both of them are good, don't I see Xiao Xin and Xiao Fang chatting more." After a pause, he said, "It's okay if you don't look at it, young people, it's good to make more friends." ”
Cen Jiu held the teacup in his hand, glanced vaguely at the two who were talking happily, and began to "sigh" to release the air conditioner.
Li Junxin suddenly felt as if the temperature around him had suddenly dropped by several degrees, hugged his arm and touched it, and said, "The air conditioner is turned on so much, I'll turn the temperature up a little." ”
Pick up the remote control and look at it, twenty-eight degrees.
The temperature in the summer is really not low.
As a regular witness of Cen Jiu's humanoid refrigerator, Fang Jing smiled, leaned into Cen Jiu, and said, "Why are you unhappy again?" ”
Cen Jiu glanced at Li Junxin, who was standing in front of the air conditioner to adjust the temperature, and snorted: "You like her?" ”
"I like you, I don't like her." Fang Jing smiled lowly.
Cen Jiu glanced in the direction of the kitchen again: "My wife wants her to be your girlfriend." ”
He was not stupid, Professor Lu originally only invited Fang Jing, obviously to introduce him to Li Junxin.
Taking advantage of the cover of the back of the sofa, Fang Jing touched Cen Jiu's hand and said, "What's the matter?" I just like you anyway. ”
Cen Jiu snorted, paused for a moment, and then said, "I only like you too." ”
