323. Chapter 322
Luzhou appeased the son of Du Dequ, who was originally the master who taught King Lu to practice martial arts, and suddenly one day he fell ill, and the doctor said that he would cultivate for several months. Du Dequ said that he should not delay the homework of King Lu, but recommended a person to teach his son.
This person's name is Zhong Heng, his appearance is good, his martial arts are also good, and his father joined the army when he was alive. King Lu liked it when he saw it, and shouted that he wanted this Master Zhong. Zeng Chun asked people to check, but he had just come to Luzhou, and he was still living in an inn. Du Dequ didn't hide it, he only said that he met this little bell on the street by chance, compared it a few times, appreciated his kung fu very much, and invited him to follow him. Zhong Heng waved his hand and said, "Uncle Jia doesn't allow it." It turned out that Zhong Heng's parents died, and he only lived with one uncle. His uncle made a lot of efforts to get out of the army and forbade him to be a soldier again. Du Dequ regretted his martial arts. Within two days, his uncompetitive son fell ill, so he recommended this Zhong Zhuang to enter the palace of the king.
Zeng Chun was quite strange at first. Fan Cheng whispered to him: "I heard from the first few students in my school who live near the barracks that Major General Du has long been impatient to teach children. This time I'm sick, and I'm happy to pick a child. Zeng Chun also made some sense when he heard it. So he went to check on Zhong Heng's uncle. That old Zhong is also an honest man, and he told them all about Ezhou in 1510.
King Lu's husband should not be sloppy, Zeng Zhenli sent people to Ezhou to investigate the Yuezhi Teahouse in detail, and it didn't take long to check. Sure enough, Yuezhi Teahouse was fine at first, but it was suddenly seized by the Ezhou prefect, and no one stopped Boss Zhong when he led his family to relatives; In recent days, the prefect of Ezhou has ordered the arrest to spread the word that Yuezhi Teahouse colluded with gangsters to harm the king of Ezhou, and now he has absconded in fear of crime; His brother-in-law opened a new tea house, and there was a beautiful tea lady who made a tea tour every three days. Zeng Chun sighed when he heard this: "The prefect of a state is doing such a thing for the sake of an idea!" It's a shame to be a scholar. "I went inside and gave the matter back to the old lady Zeng; The old man laughed and told him: The prefect of Ezhou was the prefect of the county at first, and later he was promoted by bribery. Zeng Chun's heart was happy.
Because of the innocent victims of the Zhong family, and General Xiao Du was reluctant to teach King Lu to practice martial arts, King Lu himself looked at Zhong Heng and agreed to his position. And Zhong Hengzhi's uncle also took a good look at a shop, and prepared to open a teahouse again.
After this matter was settled, Jia Cong asked Jia Huan with a straight face: "Princess Jian'an, have you really thought about it clearly?" β
Jia Huan said: "Didn't you ask?" β
Jia Cong said: "I'm not very relieved. If you fancy Xiao. The girls in Xiangguan, they are all independent and have careers, and one day you empathize with them and leave them. Goodbye may not be a friend, but a colleague can always do it. If it's an ordinary girl, you don't want to take you halfway and leave the family, just give a few more money. Princess Jian'an was implicated in King Lu, Luzhou, Zhong Wei Zhong Heng, and Fan Cheng and compulsory education. β
Jia Huan sighed: "I have been thinking about it for many days. Although he didn't want a daughter-in-law like the fifth uncle, after all, Jian'an was pleasing to the eye. β
Jia Cong frowned and looked at him: "You better slow down this." The horizontal and vertical years are young, so they are not in a hurry. Jia Huan snorted.
The next day, the two of them went to Fan Cheng's mansion to meet him. Fan Cheng was overjoyed and immediately led them to see King Lu. Zeng Chun was naturally there, looking at Jia Huan and laughing, and shouting "Mr. Zhao San". Jia Huan shook his head with a smile.
Several people sat down separately, and King Lu first said triumphantly: "That day, I told sΓΉ that they were Mr. Huan, and they still didn't believe it!" β
Jia Huan said: "A few days ago, I just passed through Luzhou, and when I saw the prosperity of the market and the gathering of merchants, I was interested, and I stayed for a few more days. Because he didn't want to attract people's eyes, he didn't use his real name. I don't want to meet Brother Fan, it's also fate. β
Zeng Chu said: "We guess it's the same." β
Jia Huan asked with a smile: "Does Zhao Sanyi's family affair still count that day?" β
King Lu preemptively said: "Count count, count!" Nature counts! β
Zeng Zhen frowned slightly and asked, "It's just that this matter has been reported to Ling Zun?" β
Jia Huan said: "When it comes to marriage, I can still make the decision myself." β
Zeng Chun said: "Don't blame Mr. Huan, since I am Jian'an's uncle, I think a little more. In the early years, this kid did something stupid once in Beijing......"
Jia Huan smiled and said, "To this day, do you still think it's a stupid thing? Zeng Chun was stunned for a moment and looked at King Lu. King Lu was also inexplicable. Jia Huan said, "If you want to talk about stupid things, it's that the little saint's mother's family is even more stupid now, trying to make the family of the Xue family's young sister who was married in the past quit her family." If they hadn't been stupid for a while, and Princess Jian'an had been stupid again, it was still unknown who was the King of Lu and who was the little sage. β
Zeng Chun gasped, and only said after a while: "She...... She did it on purpose......"
Jia Huan nodded: "At first, we didn't think she did it on purpose. Later, my fourth sister came to Luzhou to see her once, and she was full of praise, saying that although this girl was young, she was smart, wise and far-sighted. I immediately remembered what happened back then, and immediately guessed it. My fourth sister said that there was chaos in Beijing at that time, and the ambitions of the princes of each family were not small. It is really rare for her to be a little girl, to have that kind of insight, to make a decision, and to be willing to sacrifice her reputation. β
Zeng Chun's eyes suddenly showed a hint of disappointment, and he immediately smiled: "It turned out that I was praised by Miss Jia Si, it's weird." β
Jia Cong teased: "The fourth sister has a sharp eye when she is small. She said that Princess Jian'an is good, and she must be good. Brother Huan was envious at that time. Jia Huan glared at him.
King Lu said proudly: "What am I talking about? They were also worried that Mr. Huan had taken a fancy to his sister's dim sum. β
Jia Huan blinked and said, "Am I such a shallow person?" β
Everyone laughed, and the matter was settled. Zeng Chun asked them again if they could invite the general.
Jia Cong smiled: "Even if it's invited, it's not counted." Zeng Chun hurriedly asked him what he meant, and he said, "Isn't King Lu a new Mr. Wu?" β
King Lu nodded, grinning very cutely: "This gentleman is good!" The temperament is good and not fierce, I like it! β
Jia Cong said: "It is his uncle who is really capable. β
Zeng Chun was taken aback: "The boss Zhong who opened a teahouse in Ezhou? β
Jia Cong said: "In his early years, he was a general in Beijing, but because he couldn't say good things to please his boss, he couldn't be promoted, so he was disheartened and tried to get out of the army. Brother Huan wanted to ask for a general for King Lu, but when he thought of him, he quickly passed the book and called me to help persuade him. He laughed, "I'm not going to hide it, I came up with that tea lady's idea." The prefect of Ezhou is an insatiable person, and he has always done things to oppress the people. But if General Zhong's teahouse has a good business, the prefect will naturally try to exploit him. Lao Zhong's temperament can endure poverty and grievances, and he will want to leave Ezhou soon. Coincidentally, he caught up with the king of E, and somehow died at that moment! Now the prefect doesn't even have to find an excuse. I persuaded him to come here on the grounds that Luzhou had cancelled the salt class and commerce was prosperous. Even if a man comes, whether he is willing to lead the army or not depends on your own ability. β
Zeng Chun suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Mr. Cong's plan." β
Jia Cong said: "It's just a boat with the water." In the past, Ansheng was just a weak business, and it was not worth the prefect and the king of E. This man has real talents. Lord Zeng naturally knew that the place in the imperial court could not be climbed up by real talents. Zeng Chun nodded again and again, and asked how the king of E died. Jia Cong only didn't know.
It also mentions the matter of "compulsory education". The king of Xiaolu naturally agreed; Zeng Chun was born in the imperial examination, and he is also very willing to fight for the literary name of Luzhou. Naturally, it is Fan Cheng who does things. It's just that in this way, there is less and less money for Du Dequ to eat empty salaries.
For a while, Zeng Chun went back to see his Lao Tzu, and recounted the words of the Jia brothers in detail, and said: "Let my father say yes, Jia Huan really likes Jian'an to be smart and has nothing to do with dim sum." β
Old Man Zeng frowned and said, "If it's just smart, the second girl and the third girl are all smart." The most important thing here is the criticism made by Miss Jia Si back then. It's really hard to do. I couldn't help but stand with my hands in my hands.
Zeng Zhen said: "The matter has come to this, the two girls don't have to worry about having nowhere to give, Jian'an is also a member of our family." β
Old Man Zeng sighed: "The second girl is really not worried. Where can I get a good daughter-in-law for the four boys? Isn't it the eldest daughter-in-law who made trouble when things come to this point? If she goes to Beijing or other countries to ask for a good woman, I am afraid that she will miss her mother's family and be uneasy. It is really the most suitable for Jian'an. β
Zeng Chun smiled bitterly: "It's just that now that I have promised Rongguo Mansion, there are many places to count on them in the future." β
Old Man Zeng thought for a while and said, "You went to sue the second girl, by mistake, the matter has come to this, and there is no way to do it at home." Zeng Chu hesitated for a long time when he heard this, and finally agreed.
Two days later, someone from the Luwang Mansion sent snacks to Jia Huan, which was still the same four as that day. Jia Huanhuan happily rewarded the daughter-in-law with ten taels of silver and sent her away. When I opened the lid of the box and tasted it, I immediately shouted: "She didn't do it!" β
Jia Cong said: "How can there be a princess who makes snacks for people every day!" That's what it means. β
Jia Huan tasted it and said, "It tastes good." That's it. β
Chen Ruijin looked at the dim sum and suddenly said, "I'll go out for a walk." He got up and left. The brothers of the Jia family didn't care about her, and they couldn't care about her - she was a good kung fu.
After a long time, Chen Ruijin came back and said: "I followed the daughter-in-law's car that just delivered the dim sum, and the dim sum was made by the second girl of the Zeng family. It's really good, it's rare tight. Nai glanced at Jia Huan.
"Huh?!" Jia Huan was stuffing snacks into his mouth, stunned.
Jia Cong laughed, patted Jia Huan's shoulder and teased: "Yanfu is not shallow, brother!" β
Jia Huan pouted and said, "I only know that it was sent by their house, not made by my daughter-in-law." I don't know anything else. β
"That's fine. Eat four boxes of dim sum for nothing. Jia Cong stretched.
Chen Ruijin said: "It's just that the third master of Ming'er Huan has to order a little bit from Master Zeng for this matter." β
"This is natural."
The next day, a few of them went to King Lu's Mansion to discuss the opening of the hall with King Lu and others, and Jia Huan smiled as soon as he entered the room: "The dim sum master in your house is really good, and the one sent last night is also very delicious, thank you very much." Are you so concerned about me? β
King Lu was stunned: "I didn't ask someone to send snacks to Mr.?" His eyes lit up, "Isn't it ......"
"It's not!" Jia Huan said, "This dim sum chef is a little worse than the one last time, but it's not bad." He winced his eyes as he spoke.
King Lu smiled: "Last time, the one who didn't make snacks for people was not light. β
Jia Huan said with a bitter face: "I know! Didn't you hear me say that her dim sum is better than that of a dim sum chef? To tell you the truth, this master's craftsmanship was better last night. Naturally, you can't say this, so who will annoy you? King Lu smiled.
Jia Cong patted him on the side: "Discuss serious matters, you two have whispered and turned around and said slowly." So he got down to business. Zeng Chun didn't show it on his face, and secretly sighed in his heart that Jia Huan was really a foodie, and the exact same recipe could be eaten and not made by one person.
When they dispersed, King Lu rushed to his sister's courtyard and asked her if she knew who had sent the snacks. Princess Jian'an smiled when she heard this: "Depending on who he is, it has nothing to do with me." β
King Lu said: "It's not you, it's not me, it can't be the mother." β
Princess Jian'an said: "It's just a few boxes of snacks, it doesn't matter." But he asked him about him. King Lu asked her to lead her, and then forgot about the dim sum.
After King Lu left, a maid immediately stepped forward and said, "It is designated as those girls from the Zeng family!" β
Princess Jian'an smiled at this time: "They love to send it, let them send it!" Don't you hear? Even if she did better, he didn't dare to say. β
Another maid smiled and said, "Oh, the master of the horse is a little afraid." The crowd laughed. Princess Jian'an's heart finally settled down.
On the other hand, Zeng Chun returned today's events to Old Man Zeng. Old Man Zeng thought for a long time and sighed: "The second girl's plan is unwise. Well, don't count on her just yet. How old are the five girls? β
Where did Zeng Chu know? Hurriedly sent someone inside to ask. Not long after, Grandma Zeng made people go back and forth and said that the fifth girl was eleven years old this year. Old Man Zeng frowned and said: "It's too big, and it's a concubine, so you may not be able to keep King Lu in the future." If you marry the daughter of a serious family in Luzhou as an aunt, you have to have another daughter. Zeng Chun immediately agreed.
I didn't want Jia Huan to receive four more boxes of snacks that night, which were sent by that daughter-in-law. This time, there was a piece of paper in it. He picked it up and looked at it, and couldn't help but praise: "Good words! β
Jia Congwen listened and poked his head over: "I'll take a look!" β
It turned out that there was a long poem written on the paper, saying that a woman had obtained the words of her parents in the old years, and wanted to promise her to a talented man. Since that day, she has been thinking about her talent day and night, lingering on a period of lovesickness. Suddenly, one day I heard that this talented man was going to marry someone else, and suddenly felt that life was tasteless, and he almost sought death. It's just that she finally figured it out again, but she didn't have a chance. Since she admires that talent, it is good for a talented person to get a beautiful woman, and she is also dead.
Jia Cong praised: "The poem is really well written. People are not stupid, those boxes of snacks last night were actually cast by the stones to ask for directions. It can be seen that this unrequited love is also from the bottom of the heart. Hey, Third Master Huan, have you been moved? Do you want to ask her to be a little wife? Or just change her to be a big wife? β
Jia Huan looked at the poem for a long time, and said with a wry smile: "Seriously, just looking at this poem, it is very easy for a man to be tempted." We have a brother Baoyu in our family! β
Jia Cong burst into laughter! Collapsed on the chair and did not come for half a day. It was easy to stop laughing and said, "What's the matter with you?" Friendly reminder, pretending that nothing happened is the worst. Murphy's Law, if you don't deal with one thing, it will only go in the worst direction. β
Jia Huan frowned and said, "It's really not easy to do. β
Jia Cong picked up the poem again and looked at it: "It's really well written, and I believe she is sincere." He sighed again, "It's okay to have such unrequited love!" No one has ever seen it. What did she think. β
Chen Ruijin sighed: "The two third masters are full men who don't know how hungry they are, and the fate of a few girls in your family is just good in this world." β
"That's right." Jia Cong said, "The girls of the Zeng family are probably raised as pigs, and they are bought when they are slaughtered. I thought I had a good buyer, but I was secretly happy that the previous year was yellow, and it was understandable that I was uncomfortable. β
Chen Ruijin looked at him and said, "Should Third Master Cong want to abduct again?" β
Jia Cong said: "Although it is a pity that I am talented in literature, there is no shortage of literati in my Taiwan government, and it is enough to have a Jia Baoyu to support the faΓ§ade in the literary world." If she has Fan Cheng's ability, I will definitely abduct her. Nai looked at Jia Huandao, "I'll make an idea for you." Ming'er and her people come again, let the daughter-in-law bring her back a word, never more. If you can't help but want to add more words, I advise you to put aside Princess Jian'an's family affairs for the time being. β
"What word?"
"'Oh'."
Jia Huan raised his eyebrows: "Oh." β
