Chapter 266: Baked Buns
When Wang Fuzi was blown out of his face by the cold wind, he finally hurried to Gao's house.
Because the time from the academy to Kyoto in Xishan was almost the time of the meal, Wang Fuzi, as a scholar and a gentleman, naturally couldn't do anything to rush to go to other people's houses to eat, so he bought a few meat buns on the side of the road and drank a large bowl of bone broth, and sighed that the buns in the canteen of the academy are simply dogs ignoring buns, or the Wang family's buns are delicious and can swallow the tongue. Seeing that the time was almost up, Master Wang knocked on the door of the Gao family with his whole clothes.
Gao Shiwei is the small commander of the forbidden army, and a small commander like him has not a hundred but eighty in the entire imperial city. said that he was an official was a petty official in charge of the chores in the capital, and in the past few years, he was still guarding the palace, and he was the one who protected the emperor. However, since he stood on the wrong team last year, he was directly transferred out of the palace and turned into an ordinary small commander not long ago. It stands to reason that Gao Shiwei can't live in the current house, or because of the relationship between his ancestors, he occupies a good yard on Weiwu Street, where military attaches have accumulated.
Wang Fuzi knocked on the door a few times, and the boy guarding the door opened the door with his hand, stretched out his head and asked, "Who are you looking for?" β
It's not that the kid guarding the door is confused, but he really doesn't have any relatives in his family, and who can come over at noon.
Master Wang respectfully bowed and said, "Xiaosheng is the master of Xishan Academy, and I came to visit today to discuss Gao Jinghui's academic problems with your family master. β
Xishan Academy is famous, the students in it are either rich or expensive, and the few children of the poor family are also talented and promising people. When the boy in the concierge heard that Master Wang was the master of Xishan Academy, he hurriedly opened the door and said with a smile: "It turns out to be the master of the eldest young master, come in and be warm, my master and master are here!" You please come in! Come in! β
Mr. Wang was led towards the living room by Shi Shiran, the boy in the porter, and when he walked to the door, he happened to meet the Gao family couple who rushed over after hearing the news.
The great merchants, the civil and military co-rule the world, the warriors defend the country, and the literati govern the country.
However, because Dashang fought with Beichang and Yunguo for three days, the martial artists actively suppressed anything in various places. In fact, the status of the warriors was much higher than that of the literati.
After all, Kyoto is the center of politics, and the people who engage in politics have always been literati with big heads more than warriors with thick necks, so the strength of the two sides in Kyoto is about half a catty to eight taels.
Gao Shiwei was born in a military attachΓ© family, and naturally looked down on the sour Confucianism like a weak chicken cub in his bones. If he had driven Wang Fuzi away earlier, he wouldn't have let Gao Jinghui continue reading anyway. It's a pity that now he has to think about his younger son.
Gao Shiwei greeted Master Wang with a smile, "I don't know what you are doing today?" β
Wang Fuzi put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "Today's Xiaosheng is here for Gao Jinghui, a student of Xiaosheng. β
Gao Shiwei and Song Yan glanced at each other, and Gao Shiwei said seriously: "It's also ashamed, the children in the family are not sensible, and they don't want to go to school." Didn't you force him to send him over two days ago, but you want to come back again? Don't worry, we'll pick him up later. β
Wang Fuzi smiled.
Sure enough, his father and his family in the world didn't say anything, and it was already determined that his purpose was to withdraw his child from school. If this kid really didn't want to go to school, he hurried to the academy.
Wang Fuzi coughed lightly and said to the two: "Master Gao misunderstood, Xiaosheng didn't come here today to discuss Gao Jinghui's withdrawal from school. β
"Huh?"
Gao Shiwei and Song Yan shouted in unison.
The school year is about to be handed over, they didn't give money, this notoriously dead money-hungry Xishan Academy can still let people stay in the academy for free? Or did Gao Jinghui's dead child ask for money from his family when they didn't know it?
Wang Fuzi smiled understandingly, "Xiaosheng has been here for Gao Jinghui's restraint in recent days, Gao Jinghui didn't give restraint a few days ago, Xishan Academy is anxious about the students' urgency, so naturally they have to solve the difficulties for the students." I heard that the reason why Gao Jinghui didn't tie up was because his family was really difficult. β
What is suffering?
It's so difficult that the children can't afford it!
If this word really spreads, their Gao family will not be mixed up in Kyoto!
Wang Fuzi turned a blind eye to the two distorted faces of the husband and wife, and then chattered: "Master Gao, you don't have to worry. There are many children in the academy who don't have to be restrained, so when the time comes, let Gao Jinghui sweep the floor, bring us tea and water to do some small work, and still stay in the academy. We understand the difficulties at home, but we can't afford to drop out of school at all. β
Gao Shiwei's point is already black and flowing oil!
What does it mean to be unable to pay the shackles?
What does it mean to sweep the floor, serve tea and water and do some small work?
What does it mean to have suffering at home, do you understand?
Is his family so frustrated?
Have it? Have it?
All right! That's how frustrating it is!
Gao Shiwei originally wanted to deduct his son's shackles and let him come home obediently, but the debt collector ran back to the academy. Run, run, it's useless for you to run to the ends of the earth without money! originally thought that the people of the academy would drive Gao Jinghui's cub back in just a few days. It turns out that people are coming! But not his son!
Now the Master and Baba came to discuss with him about the bondage. Does he want to spread his hands and say something that shows the nature of a man, "Do you want money!" Kill it! β
Hehe, he still wants a face!
Gao Shiwei was secretly angry, Dantian took a few deep breaths, twisted his face and smiled at Wang Fuzi: "Wang Fuzi said that he was joking, the family is not short of that money!" It's also that this kid is forgetful, and he forgot to bring silver when he went to the academy, so you came and took it away! Saying that, Gao Shiwei motioned to Song Yan to marry Yinzi.
Song Yan pursed her lips, and when she saw that Gao Shiwei was already glaring, she went to the account room to get the silver angrily.
Song Yan just came over with the silver ticket, Gao Shiwei couldn't bear the various bitter chatters of Master Wang, why is it difficult to find the academy, there is difficulty in finding the master! It's not difficult for him to be tall! He doesn't want to see him!
Gao Shiwei snatched the silver ticket and stuffed it into Wang Fuzi's arms and stood up and said, "Wang Fuzi is really sorry that there is something going on in the yamen, do you think we are talking while walking?" As he spoke, he dragged Master Wang out, and when he arrived at the gate, he directly stopped the carriage, pushed Master Wang in, patted the horse's buttocks, and sent people away.
Seeing that the verbose ghost was finally gone, Song Yan walked over with a puffed face, the two looked at each other, Gao Shiwei snorted coldly and scolded: "Damn the evil obstacle!" There is a kind of hiding in the academy all the time, don't be caught by Lao Tzu! β
Song Yan stepped forward and patted Gao Shiwei's chest and said again and again: "The prime minister is angry, and he can't be angry about this little thing." However, most of the money in the account has been withdrawn, and I am afraid that the matter of your relocation will be delayed for some time. β
Gao Shiwei was even more angry when he heard this, he had the opportunity to be transferred back to the palace, but it was that evil obstacle that blocked his good official luck!
How angry the two were, it is unknown to the prince who was sitting in the carriage counting the silver tickets.
β¦β¦
Mr. Wang hurried back to the academy in a horse-drawn carriage.
I went to the account room first to hand over Gao Jinghui's bundles, and when I passed by the classroom, I saw Gao Jinghui holding a textbook and reading with his master. After a pause, he went to the place where the masters worked.
Waiting for a group of people to get out of school, Wang Fuzi motioned for Gao Jinghui to stay.
The three of them glanced at each other and silently followed Gao Jinghui into the room next to them.
Wang Fuzi didn't say anything when he saw three more, and motioned for the four of them to sit down.
Master Wang looked at the four of them amiably, and said to Gao Jinghui: "Master went to your house today, your father has already mended your shackles, and you will come to Master if there is anything in the future!" Master will solve it for you! β
Facing four pairs of adoring big eyes, Master Wang couldn't help but take care of everything.
Gao Jinghui stood up and saluted respectfully to Master Wang, "Thank you, Master!" β
Master Wang waved his hand again and again, "Where?" Where? It should be, it should be. β
Gao Jinghui thanked him and then said seriously: "Master, the student still has something to discuss with you. β
"Oh? What's the matter? β
"Master, can students work and study in the academy?"
Wang Fuzi said that he understood that he couldn't ask him to ask for money every year, and Gao Jinghui did this as the most convenient way.
But Gao Jinghui is only a few years old! It's still a child!
Wang Fuzi felt that he had to take care of the seedlings of the motherland, and hurriedly said: "You are still young, what can you do?" It's okay, it's a big deal, and the master will ask for it again next year. Seeing Gao Jinghui's insistence, Master Wang couldn't help but say, "Or, let's talk about this matter when you're older?" β
Fanxing also stopped and persuaded: "Jinghui, if you go to work-study, we can't live together, and we can't eat together." My mother said that the child is too tired to grow tall, so let's talk about it in a few years. β
The poor students live in a chase shop for more than a dozen people, and the food is worse than them, if Gao Jinghui really goes to work-study, they can't be together.
Sun Jian'an and Liu Zhengyi didn't expect that hearing Fanxing say this, they hurriedly dissuaded them.
β¦β¦
At night, the stars are shining and twinkling.
Waiting for the courtyard to be quiet, Liu Zhengyi directly pulled the bed and closed the thick curtains.
The four of them groped their way out of bed and moved to the open space in the middle.
Liu Zhengyi found the fire fold and lit the candle, and the dark hut suddenly became dark.
When Fanxing came over with a bag of steamed buns and dumplings, the three of them had already set up a small stool, and in the middle of the stool were a few lit candles.
Liu Zhengyi whispered in surprise, "What is the stuffing today?" β
Fanxing replied without raising his head: "Shredded radish, eggs, leeks, vermicelli, crab roe, braised pork." β
"Just think about it and it tastes good." Sun Jian'an couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Zhengyi had already quickly turned out two chopsticks, inserted them directly into the bun, put them on the candle and roasted them. Sun Jian'an and Gao Jinghui are not far behind, and they take a candle and bake it with a bun.
The four of them were baking buns and laughing for a while, when the sound of crackling candles suddenly became obvious.
Sun Jian'an sniffed and couldn't help but ask, "Jinghui, are you really going to work-study?" Won't you be with us in the future? Anyway, this time the bundle has already been handed over, so don't you want to go, okay? β
