Chapter 187: Shameless!
Although Shen Lin let Su Lu dream, he was not ambiguous at all, anyway, it is not illegal to fool others, what if someone takes the bait?
Shen Lin arranged things in an orderly manner according to Su Lu's plan, and started the enrollment publicity in a down-to-earth manner.
After Jinshui Academy secretly engaged in a round of autumn recruitment, there were really many people who came to study, and even paid money to compete for a "degree". Jinshui Academy, which has been operating at a loss, finally has a new income!
Another piece of good news is that Li Shao sent a few stewards to Kaifeng to open a restaurant, specializing in selling dishes from Jinshui Academy, so that Jinshui Academy can almost turn losses into profits!
Su Lu doesn't care much about this, anyway, the money is used to spend it, and those who can spend money will not have bad luck!
The days passed peacefully, and I didn't want to have a bad news after the winter, saying that Mei Yaochen was gone. Su Lu is not familiar with this Mei Yaochen, but Sima Guang and they are good friends with Mei Yaochen, and occasionally he invites teachers to come to Jinshui Academy for guidance, and he will invite Mei Yaochen by the way.
Now that Mei Yaochen has died of illness, Su Lu went back to the city to mourn Mei Yaochen.
After the winter, the weather was very cold, and Su Lu shivered as soon as he went out. He went straight to Mei's house, and saw that Sima Guang, Ouyang Xiu and others had arrived.
Mei Yao's official is not big, and his family is not big, but there are a lot of people who come, which shows that his popularity is not bad on weekdays. This kind of occasion is not a good time to make friends, Su Lu obediently and skillfully condolences Mei Yaochen, and left with Sima Guang.
Sima Guang and Su Lu talked about Wang Anshi's recent situation.
Since Wang Anshi went to the grassroots level to carry out pilot work, he has been bold and eager to do things, and he has made a little mess, if it weren't for his good character, he came forward to solve the problem as soon as possible, and the matter would have started a long time ago.
Sima Guang thinks that Wang Anshi can't do this, Wang Anshi can get to the bottom by himself, can others? He asked Su Lu, who was a student, to persuade Wang Anshi well, and asked Wang Anshi not to take too big a step.
Su Lu listened to Sima Guang's bitter persuasion and knew that the fundamental contradiction between Wang Anshi and Sima Guang was that their concepts were completely different.
They have two completely different views on financial management, one is to support throttling, and the other is to support open source.
Sima Guang hopes to throttle. He also thinks that the DPRK and China should change, but his idea is more conservative, that is, to cut unnecessary expenses to save money.
Wang Anshi hopes to open source. He mainly wants to get the money and business into the hands of the imperial court, and concentrate on doing big things.
Regarding Wang Anshi's various "whimsical ideas", Sima Guang disagreed.
Don't ask him why he disagrees, otherwise he can list 10,000 words and tell you the reasons in all directions!
After listening to Sima Guang's entrustment, Su Lu nodded again and again, he, a little expert in pouring cold water, has not written to Wang Anshi for a long time, it's time to show his respect for his teacher!
Su Lu said: "I will write a letter to the teacher when I go back!" ”
Sima Guang was very pleased, and asked Su Lu to follow him back to his home, and took the pilot report sent back by the pilot county as a critical material.
Su Lu entered Sima Guang's study and took a look, good guy, such a thick stack!
Sima Guang put the whole stack of materials in his arms, and told him: "Read all these as soon as possible, and convince your teacher well." ”
Su Yu suspected that Sima Guang went to Mei's house not to mourn his friend Mei Yaochen at all, but deliberately went to wait for him, otherwise how could he prepare the materials so completely? !
In fact, Sima Guang was of course sad when his friend died, and this was the third friend he sent away this year.
Prior to this, his friends Jiang Xiufu and Han Zongyan also died one after another, and the catastrophe at the beginning of the year made him uncomfortable.
It was precisely because of so many bad things this year that he felt that the reform of the court needed to be more cautious, otherwise it would affect the whole body, and the consequences would be unimaginable!
A few years ago, Sima Guang and Wang Anshi worked together in the Third Division, although the two had a big quarrel for three days and a small quarrel for two days, they were still friends, and occasionally went to each other's homes as guests.
Sima Guang had seen Su Lu's criticism of Wang Anshi's new law at Wang Anshi's house, and he always felt that Su Lu was in the same camp as himself.
This time, he deliberately followed up with the relevant materials of the pilot county, in order to let Su Lu give full play to his eloquence, so that Wang Anshi could stop the horse and change his mind!
Su Lu went out with the information, only to feel the cold wind blowing on his face. He asked King Kong to divide most of the stack of materials, and the rest of himself hugged the wind and walked back against the cold wind.
When she got home, Su's mother saw that Su's nose was frozen red, and she was naturally very distressed. She hurriedly asked someone to cook ginger soup and brought it, and pulled Su Lu to sit down for a while.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot of things to take care of at home, she would have liked to live in Jinshui Academy together.
After Su Lu obediently drank the ginger soup, Su Liu's mother talked to Su Lu about an important matter: "I heard your third aunt say that Mr. Jiang intends to marry your cousin, do you know about this?" ”
Su Lu frowned. He said: "Lao Jiang is a little old this year, right? ”
Lao Jiang is five years old, and although his cousin has been divorced, it is also Fanghua's right age, and no matter how you think about it, it doesn't match well.
Su Mu said: "In the past few years, your third aunt has shown your cousin several people, but your cousin is not very willing. However, after reading the book written by Mr. Jiang, I liked it very much, and even exchanged letters with him under a pseudonym to discuss the things in the book, and your cousin was very happy to learn that he was coming to ask for marriage. ”
As for the age of Su Yuan's consideration, Su Mu didn't think it was anything. She said, "Mr. Jiang is not too old, is he? Many people will marry after the death of their wives, which one is the same age? No matter how old you are, you are married to a marriageable woman who has not been married for a long time. ”
Su's mother also gave Su Lu an example, saying that Fan Zhongyan was sixty-four years old when Fan Xianggong died, but his youngest son was only six years old at the time!
Lao Jiang, this is not a continuation, but the first time to marry!
After listening to this, Su Lu knew that he had a wrong idea, for the people of the time, as long as you have status and status, age is not a problem at all, and it is not a matter of marriage to eighteen at eighty.
It is said that there was a popular poem like this in the Ming Dynasty: "Eighteen brides and eighty langs, with white hair and red makeup." The mandarin ducks are made into a double night, and a pear flower presses the begonia. Later, someone who did good things made up a joke about this poem, saying that it was written by his cousin Su Shi.
In this regard, Su Lu felt that he had to prove his cousin's innocence, but his cousin really didn't write this!
The best proof of this is that he took out his very useful golden finger and searched for it, and found that he could search for this poem!
(Note: Su Shi wrote "Zhang Ziye is eighty-five years old, Shang Wen buys concubines, and writes poems about ancient orders")
In short, for the people of the time, the age of marriage is not a problem, but the family background, identity, and status are the problems.
According to the situation of the Su family, if his cousin is the first marriage, Lao Jiang's family will definitely not be able to marry, but his cousin has been divorced and has been delayed for a few years and is unwilling to remarry, so there are many disadvantages in the marriage market.
At present, Lao Jiang Guan is doing a good job, and he has saved a lot of money by relying on the pen fee, and his cousin can live a very good life when he marries in the past.
What's more, his cousin liked it herself.
When Su Lu thought that the "matchmaker" was the books written by Lao Jiang, he felt depressed for a while. The reason why his cousin read those books was because he sent them, but his cousin actually fell in love with Lao Jiang's talent because of this!
So many young people don't choose, but they fall in love with Lao Jiang!
Isn't this guy writing fast and well?
This doesn't make sense!
Su Lu was depressed for a while, and then told Su's mother that Ming'er was going to ask her cousin.
Early the next morning, Su Lu went to Su Xun's house and actively cared about his cousin's lifelong events.
Su Sanniang was treated coldly by her husband's family, and was hurt by her ex-husband, and she had a deep resistance to stepping into marriage again. This is also the reason why she has always refused to look at each other, but Su Xun and Cheng are both old, and Cheng always looks at her worried, so she tries to communicate with Lao Jiang through letters.
The exchange went well, and the two had many words in common in the letter. Later, she revealed her identity in the letter, and Lao Jiang willingly expressed her intention to marry Su Xun.
Su Lu heard that Su Sanniang was intentionally tempted from the beginning, and suddenly felt that Lao Jiang was really a late bloomer, not only the official luck came late, but the marriage luck also came late!
——————
Su Lu said with a smile: "Since you like it, the third uncle will definitely agree, it seems that I will soon drink your happy wine." ”
Su Sanniang said: "He is a person you are optimistic about, I don't think it should be too bad." ”
When Su Lu heard this, his heart became even more depressed. He is very optimistic about Lao Jiang, but he only regards Lao Jiang as a promising officialdom assistant and a creative tool for writing books super fast, but he didn't expect this Lao Jiang to want to be his brother-in-law!
This guy is old, shameless!
