Chapter 3 Harmony and Separation
Zhao Zhusi heard that Zhang Xu might go to Beijing to defect to Chen Xiang, and Fang Cai's arrogance was completely dispelled. I thought that his layout was seamless, but once Zhang Xu entered Beijing, it would not be difficult for him to be admitted to Jinshi with his talent and learning recommended by Chen Xiang.
If the Zhang family is offended miserably now, he will face the revenge of an official in the future. And with his understanding of this prospective son-in-law, this person can't be teased.
Zhang Shi lowered his head and said: "Oshi, I don't know about the third brother, but this matter is all wrong, it is all the fault of our Zhang family, and the two of us brothers admit their mistakes not to ask your subordinates to be merciful and let our Zhang family go, but to sincerely accompany you to this is not." ”
Listening to Zhang Shi's words, Zhao Zhisi's expression eased slightly, and he had to slow down a little, he had to go down a step now, especially when he didn't catch Zhang Xu, he couldn't tear his face with the Zhang family.
Zhang Yue also nodded, his eldest brother had really seen the world, and his words were neither humble nor arrogant.
Cao Baozheng, who had not dared to speak on the side, saw that Zhang Yue had reversed the situation with one sentence, and his spirits immediately perked up.
He didn't dare to be a peacemaker, but now it's different, and he's a master at adjusting the atmosphere.
Cao Baozheng said with a smile: "The misunderstanding has been solved, isn't it, Oshiji, I see that this chapter Erlang is also undecided, so he is confused for a while, but he will understand afterwards." ”
"Zhao Zhusi, you think that the marriage contract of these two families is set by the elders of the two families, how can there be a reason that the juniors will not count a word. This marriage contract is the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker. I am the master of the Zhang family, as long as Zhang Erlang returns to his hometown in the future, the marriage contract between the two families will be the same, and then the time will save the province of arresting the son-in-law......"
Zhao Zhisi interrupted: "Thank you Bao for your intentions, but Zhang Erlang will return to his hometown in the future, and I, Zhao, can also beg him to welcome the little girl over again with a shy face?" The love of the Zhang family and the Zhao family has been broken off since Zhang Erlang escaped from marriage. Today, I only need the Zhang family to pay back the dowry money of 300 yuan, and the accounts are clear. ”
"And what about the account of Oshishi burning my shop?" Zhang Yue asked.
Zhao Zhusi sneered when he heard this: "What if it is burned, it is burned?" Thinking of the friendship between me and your late father, I gave you a chance to speak, and you thought that I Zhao was a good talker? ”
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to be bad again, Cao Baozheng immediately stepped forward and said, "Please also ask Zhao Zhisi to calm his anger." To this day, the marriage contract of the Zhang and Zhao families has not been dissolved. If the marriage contract is not broken, the two families are one family, is this the truth? Since there is nothing that a family can't sit down and talk about? ”
Zhao Zhisi said: "Zhang Erlang is unrighteous first, who is still a family with him?" ”
Cao Baozheng said with a smile: "That Abshiji said that it is not a family, and it is also the Zhang family's failure to climb high." It is also normal for this woman to remarry, and the priest will definitely be able to get a good son-in-law. The empress dowager of this dynasty is also remarried, not only married to Emperor Zhenzong, but also called the Linchao. ”
What Bao Zheng said was Liu E and Empress Dowager Liu, and later generations often called her Empress Lu and Empress Wu together. Liu E was born in the people, and before getting along with Song Zhenzong, she was already a married woman, but she became the queen mother, and some ministers had advised her to serve the military queen, replacing the young Song Renzong as the emperor.
In terms of today, her life can be described as extremely inspirational, and female frequency novels dare not write like this.
Cao Baozheng gave the example of the Empress Dowager Liu E, and said: "If the two families continue to make trouble now, it will not help, but it will be harmful to the reputation of the two families." Zhao Zhisi raised his noble hand at this moment, others will only praise your good name, and it is also beneficial for Yu Ling's daughter to remarry. ”
Zhang Yueshen nodded approvingly.
Cao Baozheng's words are translated, that is, if you don't get divorced and remarried once or twice these years, where is it embarrassing to become the protagonist? Now the problem is not in the divorce, but in 'don't bully the poor youth'! When your daughter marries better, it is important to come to the door to slap your face or thank us for not marrying back then.
The neighbors who were watching the play outside thought to themselves, that's right, you Zhao Zhisi is like this to your predecessor's in-laws, although the fault lies with the other party, but the later in-laws will murmur in their hearts.
But seeing Zhao Zhisi sneered: "Good Cao Baozheng, according to what you say, the Zhang family's divorce can be said to be a happy event for our family?" ”
"Oshiji, you don't dare!" Cao Baozheng immediately cried out.
Zhang Shi said: "As for our Zhang family's mistake first, we should admit the punishment and punishment, and we will never make the priest unable to explain to others." ”
Zhao Zhusi sneered: "With Cao Baozheng's words, the matter of divorce is just settled?" Why do you have to pay for your life when you kill someone, just pay some more money? ”
Frozen at the moment.
Zhang Yue deliberately said to Cao Baozheng: "Baozheng! I don't understand anything, and I want to ask you for advice. ”
Cao Baozheng nodded and said, "San Lang, please speak." ”
Zhang Yue said: "My second sister-in-law is still the daughter-in-law of our Zhang family, and now that the second brother is not in Pucheng, how can I remarry?" ”
Cao Baozheng said: "You can ask Lingjun to make a judgment, the righteousness of the two families is absolutely unjust, and the abandonment of his wife is unrighteous in the first place, and the love between husband and wife has been extinct." ”
Zhang Yue said: "But to be upright, the law is free from seven sins, which one is the sin of abandoning his wife?" There has never been a husband who cannot abandon his wife, but there is a saying that 'a wife must not abandon her husband'. Now it's better for the two families to sit down and make it clear to Lingjun all the time, and to break off with harmony, so even if it can't make up for the regret a little, but it is also better for the reputation of the two families to say it. ”
"That's right." Cao Baozheng's eyes lit up.
In ancient times, the dissolution of marriage was generally initiated by the husband and was called divorce. Righteousness is the fault of the husband's family, and the wife cannot divorce her husband, so it can only be judged by the government, which is called righteousness.
In the law, it still reflects the superiority of men and the inferiority of women, and it is not possible to judge righteousness if you abandon your wife, but you can divorce your wife if you abandon your husband. The Zhang family wants to bite the bullet and drag the lawsuit on this point, and you can't do anything about it, but it's different from leaving.
The two parties sat down and dissolved the marriage in the spirit of friendly negotiation and peace at the precedence of peace. For example, although the husband's family has been at fault with his wife, he has not reached one of the seven sins of righteousness, and it is not the fault of the wife.
Bao Zheng said knowingly: "Yes, Zhang Erlang's escape from marriage has caused great humiliation to the two families, and this matter is irreparable even if it takes out a lot of money." The matter has come to this point, and I also ask the priest to think twice about Ling Yan's future, and it is good to hear it out, and it will be good for Ling Yan to remarry in the future. ”
Zhao Abssi looked at Zhang Yue and sneered: "What a treacherous boy, you can't bargain with this Abbot Si through Cao Baozheng's mouth?" ”
Zhang Yue said: "I don't dare, it's just that my brother and I have nowhere to stay, and I also ask the priest to let us live here first, and have a tile to live in, or a grace limit, let our brother pawn this house by himself, and the money owed to the priest will not be less." ”
Zhang Shi also said: "On the other day, my Zhang family will feast on the reputation of the city, and then our two brothers will make amends to the priest in person." ”
Zhao Zhusi thought about it and said: "You first write a letter for your wife on behalf of your family, and as for the sticker, you will also retreat." ”
"Okay." Cao Baozheng was overjoyed, and the current Zhang family brother agreed.
The letter of release of wife was drafted by Bao Zheng.
But see Baozheng wrote: Gai said that the fate of husband and wife, the husband and wife are deeply affectionate, and the kindness is deep and righteous. Talk about the cause of sharing, and cherish the joy of togetherness.
All the causes of husband and wife, the three lives of the previous life are married, and the husband and wife of this life are matched.
……
I hope that after the wife and son are separated, they will recomb their sideburns, sweep their eyebrows beautifully, be skillful and slender, select the lord of high-ranking officials, and make the shadow in front of the court.
Resolve grievances and release knots, and don't hate each other; One parting and two wide, each life rejoices.
Long live the lady.
Zhang Shi on behalf of Zhang Xu
I hereby erect this book on May 16 of the third year of the third year
……
Seeing 'one parting and two wide, each life is happy', Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel relieved, it turned out that the source of this sentence was here, the ancients divorced so much, and blessed his ex-wife to find a happy home again.
However, 'talking about the cause of sharing, the joy of nostalgia' is a bit of a format, and my second brother and others have nothing to do.
The eldest brother is like a father, and now Zhang Shi is presiding over the whole family.
So he signed for Zhang Xu. Zhao Zhisi took the book of letting go of his wife in his hand, and his eyes were slightly wet. At this moment, where is he Zhao Zhisi who makes Xiao'er dare not cry at night, but just a father.
"My daughter of hard work, how is she different from this widow now?" Zhao Zhisi held the paper and howled.
"Oshiji! There are many young talents. Cao Bao said.
Zhang Shi said: "Oshi, our two brothers still have to rest in Pucheng, and I hope that Oshiji will raise his noble hand in the future!" ”
All the neighbors said: "Yes, yes, the priest raises his noble hand, and the two families will resolve this grievance!" ”
"This matter has been revealed, so let's get together and disperse!"
Zhao Absi turned around to wipe his tears with his sleeve, and then said, "It's easy to expose it." ”
"It's not your brother's fault in this matter, it's Zhang Erlang, and this account book will be settled with him. This house can be left for you to live in for a while, and the rest of the money will be paid off within a month. Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't think that you will deceive people too much if you are a scholar! ”
At this moment, Zhang Shi almost cried with joy: "Thank you for your mercy!" ”
Seeing Zhang Shi so involuntarily, Zhang Yue couldn't help but say to himself, his brother is too gullible to trust people, if Zhao Zhisi finds out that his second brother has not entered Beijing, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not go back on his word.
The left and right minions were holding torches, and Zhao Zhisi's face was cloudy: "Move!" ”
Everyone started to move anything that seemed valuable in Zhang's house, and there were two people who looked like bookkeepers on the side writing and counting: "One broken bed." ”
"A spring-breaking stool."
"Break the curtain and put it on top."
Zhang Yue thought about it, turned around and ran upstairs, took a book from his brother's bookshelf and put it on his body.
He remembered a saying in the past that a family can be dissolved, but there is still hope for children and grandchildren while they are still studying. The meaning of this sentence is that books are the most expensive and must not be sold.
Zhang Yue stuffed the book and took a mosquito net in his hand. Zhao Zhisi glanced at it and didn't say anything, so Zhang Yue regretted it, and he would have taken a few more copies if he knew this.
Immediately, Zhang Yue watched the other party move away the books in a bookcase, and couldn't help but feel distressed. These people moved until midnight, and even the beds, chairs, and stools were emptied.
As for the one who couldn't move away, it was not smashed, so it was considered to have saved some face for the Zhang family.
"Go slowly! Hold the lamp for the priest and light it up! ”
Cao Baozheng was full of courtesy and thoughtfulness and sent Zhao Zhisi out of the door with all the neighbors.
Cao Baozheng returned to the house and saw the Zhang brothers, and scolded again: "Those dogs, they don't even leave Zhang Qizi to us!" ”
The other party was far away, and Cao Baozheng said this, and he was really bold.
Bao Zheng said to Zhang Shi: "Forget it, Da Lang, we don't have the same knowledge as them, in a few days, let's set up a few tables and head wines, invite Zhao Zhisi, and the matter will be over." ”
Zhang Shi thanked him and said: "Zhang Mou has thanked Baozheng here, and all the neighbors are righteous!" ”
All the neighbors said: "Zhang Dalang is a good person and has a good reward, we have been neighbors for so many years, you will see the outside world if you say so." ”
"Yes! Who didn't go back to the time of the word. ”
Bao Zheng said to everyone: "Neighbors, the Zhang family is empty right now, let's help the lining first, and how about making up the family first so that their brothers have a place to live?" ”
"Yes, yes." Left and right neighbors said together.
Bao Zheng faced Zhang Shi, Zhang Yue said: "You two brothers will come to my house tonight to get a good rest." Let's talk about the rest tomorrow. ”
Zhang Shi sighed: "Everything is correct."
At the moment, Baozheng brought Zhang Shi and Zhang Yue to his home. When he went out, Zhang Shi subconsciously wanted to lock it, but he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the kicked door and the empty room.
"It's okay if you don't lock it."
Bao Zheng immediately took the two brothers to live at his house, and Bao Zhenghun's family also burned hot soup for Zhang Yue to freshen up.
The two brothers fell asleep.
Zhang Yue took out the book from his arms and read the two articles of King Liang Hui and Gongsun Chou by the lamp.
Zhang Shi was secretly relieved to see this, in the past, the third brother had fun all day long and was not close to studying, but this time the family has changed, and he is much more sensible. It must be the father and mother who are blessed by the spirit of the sky, and before you know it, the third brother is so old.
Zhang Shi was much relieved when he thought of this, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes unconsciously.
"Brother, I'll watch it for a while and then go to sleep."
Suddenly, I heard Zhang Shi say: "Look, I remember what my father said back then, although you were stubborn when you were young, you can inherit his ambition to glorify Zhang's family in the future." ”
"Originally, I thought it was my father saying it casually! But today ......"
“…… Today, I see that you chose Mencius, there are so many books on your second brother's bookshelf, only this one was left by my father back then! ”
Zhang Yue didn't know what to say when he heard this, he read the book for a while, lay down on the bed, closed his eyes, and fell asleep immediately.
Strange to say, Zhang Yue fell asleep, but the whole person was in the place where he saw the old man yesterday.
The night was dark all around, and only a galaxy hung upside down in the middle of the sky.
Suddenly, a feeling of loneliness surged from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Yue didn't know when it would start at this time, he didn't know when it would end, he didn't know where he was, and he didn't know how to deal with himself.
Suddenly, the two articles of King Liang Hui and Gongsun Chou, which he had read before going to bed, suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Yue's eyes, showing like a picture scroll.
This......
The brilliance of the words danced in the air, and Zhang Yue couldn't help but reach out to touch it, but it was as if he had touched the surface of the water, and all the ripples of the words dissipated.
Immediately, one scene after another appeared in front of me.
It was all from last night. Zhao Abshi's appearance, as well as the subtleties in his expression, did not miss it, and even every word he said was in his ears.
At this time, in the house, Zhao Zhisi said coldly, "What if your shop burns down."
Zhang Yue repeatedly resurfaced this picture in his mind, and captured the surprise and anger on Zhao Zhisi's expression when he said this in his memory.
Zhang Yue stretched out his finger and swiped, this scene was like watching Douyin Kuaishou with a mobile phone, that scene was reversed repeatedly, Zhang Yue's mind moved, this scene was repeated and reversed several times, and the more I watched it, the more I felt that it was wrong.
Looking at Zhao Zhisi's expression, it seems that his own shop was not burned by him?
Zhang Yue stretched out his hand to pat it, but saw that the picture was gone. At this time, Mencius's "King Hui of Liang" and "Gongsun Chou" two articles returned to him.
It turns out that these two articles have been engraved here!
Zhang Yue was distracted when he saw this scene, and said in his heart, this is also too showy, it is simply a creation Zhong Shenxiu!
Zhang Yue pressed the excitement and excitement, sat cross-legged on the grass, and began to memorize the book.
The long night is long and the stars are far away.
There is nothing but me, and heaven and earth are one with me.
It seemed like an hour, two hours passed, and I didn't get tired at all.
How long has it been since I've read a book?
After graduation? After going to college?
Why do you always 'do nothing, touch the first place in fishing'?
He also made up his mind to change and let himself study hard, but he always fished for three days and dried his nets for two days.
Why did you give up on yourself and give up on treatment?
If God gave him a chance to do it all over again...... In fact, it's quite cool to touch the fish! At least that feeling of guilt-ridden indulgence is something that the top students will never experience!
Zhang Yue read these two articles several times, and at this time, Danjue's mind moved, and suddenly everything in front of him turned into brilliance and dissipated.
It was as if he had returned to the world from mid-air, and felt his body. At this moment, Zhang Yueqiang opened his eyes, and his brother Zhang Shi beside him was tossing and turning, and he didn't fall asleep.
It seems that I have spent a whole day reading by myself, but it is only a moment here!
Zhang Yue thought of this, but felt a wave of exhaustion welling up in his heart, and the energy that had just been overdrawn had to be cashed in at this moment, and suddenly his mind was heavy, and he didn't want to sleep at all.
The night breeze is slightly cool, Nanpu Creek is still murmuring, and the lonely mountain stands by the stream!
After getting up the next day, Zhang Yue was shocked to find that the two articles of "King Liang Hui" and "Gongsun Chou" that he read last night were actually half memorized!
And I don't feel tired at all, I woke up refreshed today. It's like having too much homework last night, and you sleep first and then wake up, and find that someone has already written your homework for you.
It feels like ...... There are really no words to describe it.
At this moment, Zhang Yue almost burst into tears, and for the first time in two lives, he felt what 'knowledge gives me strength, and learning makes me happy'.
Zhang Yue looked up to the sky and said to himself: "I never thought that only reading could make me sleep, but I never thought that I would be able to sleep and read one day!" ”
When Zhang Yue said this, it happened to be Zhang Shi who pushed the door in.
Zhang Shi looked at his younger brother, muttering something to the roof, and jumped up and down excitedly.
Immediately, Cao Baozheng also walked to the door of the house, and he and his brother looked at each other.
"Isn't it...... What kind of hysteria do you have? ”
"Overnight, my family was destitute, and I was able to save it. This is a tragedy and joy! ”
Zhang Shi coughed lightly and withdrew from the room with Cao Assurance.
