Twenty-three, Qingzun

Teacher Su said to the housekeeper: "I have been teaching for so many years, I have always chosen students and families, and my own decisions will not change. You go back and tell your young master, Shi Qi doesn't need me to teach, and I'm not ready for anyone else, thank you for retaining, if there is a period in the future, I will definitely thank you with a big glass of water and wine. After saying that, Mr. Su didn't look back, and walked towards the sun that had already shown its head in front of him.

Shi Qi lost his teacher all of a sudden, he ran to the mountain alone, Dao Zhen heard that Mr. Su went back, he felt strange, Shi Qi told him the reason, Dao Zhen said: "Your teacher has asked our abbot to help you find a teacher again, he is a former Jinshi on the list, he told the abbot, the things in his stomach have been taught to you almost, your ability to learn by yourself is not weak, and I teach you the same feeling of kung fu, what you need now is no longer skills, is skilled, is physical strength, and may also be proficient and flexible in academics." ”

Shi Qi seemed to understand and practiced with Daozhen for a while, he went to Mei Yaoming again, and he asked: "Grandpa Niu, why did I use the jade flute to blow your song yesterday, my mother felt wrong after hearing it, she asked me to ask you what is the reason?" Mei Yaoming was stunned when he heard this, and he asked, "How is it wrong?" You talk about it. Shi Qi told him that the fourth lady felt uncomfortable after hearing this, and the other people in the courtyard also felt the same way, in short, they all hoped that he would not play again, and there had never been such a situation before when he didn't use the jade flute to blow.

After listening to Shi Qi's situation, Mei Yaoming said: "This is my family's ancestral flute and tune, I want you not to play it in public, because I am afraid of causing other things, not because I know that there are other uncomfortable factors in the sound." But what you said, I heard the elders mention, they told me that this flute is not my family's thing, my ancestor inadvertently treated a martial arts person, he entrusted my family before he died, he must pass on the flute, the song is also his, since he is a martial arts person, maybe the song may not have other functions. ”

Mei Yaoming seemed to have entered into contemplation, and their family did not listen to the words of the martial arts man to take the flute as an heirloom. He just thought that the flute was a good object, but when it came to his hand, his mother had carefully muttered to him that it was a good thing, but the Mei family might not be able to hold it down, since the flute came to their Mei family, I heard that many bad things had happened, so he gave the flute to the fourth lady, thinking that the Shi family was a big family and should be able to calm down. Sure enough, Dizi didn't go out for a long time, their Mei family gave birth to a son, and life was safe.

Shi Qi didn't get an answer, when he returned to the temple, Yun Chi received him, Yun Chi said: "Your Shi family is the great benefactor of my temple, the temple was rebuilt by your Shi family, I am the host here, but everything must also take into account the requirements of the Shi family." Little donor, I watched you grow taller and more mature, although you are still underage. Teacher Su said goodbye, it must be that there has been a change in your family, remember, no matter when, Daozhen and Teacher Su have taught you, don't forget what they taught, if there is any inconvenience in life in the future, Daozhen and I are here, it's just your mother, my temple is not easy to take in, you have to discuss with her in the long run.

After Shi Qi arrived home in the evening, the fourth lady said: "Teacher Su is not coming back, your Uncle Songshan thinks that we eat their idle dinner, the old man is still there, he is not good for me, but you may have to suffer in the future." Shi Qi said: "Mother, I can do anything, or not?" You are also with me, you live in Uncle Niu's house, I live in the monastery, there is no place for us, I can feed you and my brother. The fourth lady thought of Niu Lixin, once in a while it may be successful, if she goes, Niu Lixin has no ability to let Shi Caishuang not find out, she is the old man's woman, if something happens then, it will be difficult for Shi Qi to stay in the temple.

The fourth lady said: "Child, no matter what happens, life must go on, what do we not go, since it is a big deal to suffer when we go out, then we will suffer here." You are also ten years old, and it is not long before you become an adult, your mother can wait, you remember, the husband must first be able to bend. Shi Qi seemed to have an understanding, he told the fourth lady that Master Niu didn't know about the flute, maybe it was her feelings, and he tried again, but the fourth lady didn't agree. She thought that sooner or later it would be returned, and it was better to touch other people's things less, and she resisted from the bottom of her heart, because as soon as the flute came out, their life would not be smooth, but she did not say it explicitly.

The housekeeper removed the only maid who accompanied the fourth lady at night, and the old man did not go to the courtyard of the fourth lady one night, so the young master took advantage of the night to enter the small courtyard of the fourth lady, and he had not slept yet. The fourth lady asked, "Is there something wrong with the young master coming over at night?" Young Master Shi looked at Shi Qi and said, "Shi Qi, you go to the study to read the book for a while, I have something to discuss with Siniang." Shi Qi didn't want to go, the fourth lady signaled that he was fine, and he still went out step by step.

The fourth lady said: "You drove away Teacher Su, now Shi Qi has no one to teach, and you still pretend to let him read a book, what kind of heart is it?" Now come to me, if the next person finds out, or the master knows, I am a woman, and I will be driven away by your Shi family at any time, but it is not good for you, the master, after all, I am your fourth mother. ”

Shi Songshan said: "I just want you to compromise, and I didn't have the idea of driving away Teacher Su, I asked the housekeeper to chase him, but he didn't come back." I know you're not easy to do, but now I'm venturing here to discuss with you, I want the master to go up to the mountain to live, he has always believed in Buddhism, Buddhism is quiet, let him live a few more days. I can't be here with you all the time, you are young, sooner or later you will hollow out the old man, and give him his life in vain. ”

The fourth lady sneered, "You will discuss it with me?" Where is the master, it's your family's business, I can't control it, you force him to go up the mountain, and don't you make him angry to death? I can't hollow out any of them, if you want to drive me out, you can say it directly, if you think that Shi Qi has an idle meal, I can agree that he will work for the Shi family, he has the strength and can do things. I'll tell you the truth, as you are now, I regret accompanying you, and when the master is gone, you won't get anything from me, and I won't tell Changfeng anything. If you have a face, you can tell your brother that you may be his father, because you and your father bullied his mother at the same time. ”

Shi Songshan was stunned in place, he thought that the fourth lady only disagreed with him because of his eyes and ears, so he withdrew the servant, and now, her words were so hurtful, Shi Songshan was blocked. He said: "If you are like this, won't your previous wish to enter Shi's house for the sake of studying for Shi Qi be frustrated? Am I worse than the master? Also, my woman has not given birth to me yet, is Changfeng mine or not? I'm feeling more and more unsure, can't you tell me the truth? I want to be with you again, just to see you give birth to another one for me. ”

The fourth lady also made Shi Songshan tempted a few times, but Shi Qi was big, no matter how big her idea was, she had to obey the child's future, she said: "You go back, let the housekeeper start sending Shi Qi to work tomorrow, he can't finish it, I can help him, he has time to read at night, but you don't forget, don't make enemies with Shi Qi." Teacher Su said that his current knowledge can also be taken for an official and a half-position, he will not be a burden to your Shi family, don't force him to leave the Shi family as soon as possible. ”

Shi Songshan did not hesitate to turn his face with his father, he wanted to have today one day earlier, but the fourth lady actually went from the original rockery to the current impossibility, he was extremely annoyed, he said: "Siniang, can you think about my current situation?" Or? I'll find you a new place, Shi Qi and Changfeng I will raise them in the house, you can take them with you if you want, but you have to give me hope. The fourth lady looked at him, of course she wanted to compromise now, but life is sometimes a helpless combination, as long as she loosened her mouth, Shi Songshan could not do it without leakage, but she? In the future, it will be difficult to face the son of the Glory Sect who will be able to glorify the sect immediately, and she will still be the lady of the decree that Shi Qi said.

The fourth lady said: "There are many good women, your woman has not given birth to now, and the master also mentioned it, and he told me that it may be that you used to spend too much and were not focused." In the future, if you have a good one to marry back, you must focus on the family business, I am old, and it is not suitable for you, don't embarrass me anymore, I have said everything, you go back. Shi Songshan looked at the fourth lady and said: "The people in the house said that you are the same as when you came, really, you look better at night than when you came, I really don't lie to you, Siniang, you will fulfill me again as soon as you come back, right?" As he spoke, he started his hand, the fourth lady's heart softened, but Shi Qi pushed the door in at this time, he didn't know what was going on, it was a punch, Shi Songshan was really empty, and he actually let a ten-year-old child take a few steps back, and his chest was obviously painful.

The fourth lady turned her head and sat down in front of Chang Feng, whose eyes were also open, and she said, "Shi Qi, you can't be rude, he is your brother, how can you beat him?" He didn't do anything to his mother, he just wanted to play with your brother for a while, why didn't he read a book for a while? Shi Qi said: "My eyes kept jumping, and I was worried that something would happen to you, so I came back." Big brother, why don't you go back? Shi Songshan saw that it was about to arrive, so that Shi Qi made a fuss, his mood fell, and he said: "I will discuss your affairs with your mother, in order to block other people's mouths, you will be responsible for cleaning the backyard and study in the future." Shi Songshan really talked to Changfeng again, if Shi Qi didn't come back, Changfeng might really see someone beating his mother under his eyelids.

The fourth lady knew that if this continued, sooner or later she would become Shi Songshan's person, she knew that her control was really at the point, and she had no ability to resist. The fourth lady and the old clerk said: "Master, the matter of your promise to Shi Qi's study is now in vain, I don't blame you, who let you hand over the family so early." You are also old, I have a long wind again, otherwise I can take Shi Qi to continue to find a place, in the future, you don't want to come to my small courtyard, Shi Qi and I work for the Shi family to support ourselves, I just want to be a subordinate and don't want to wait for you people who don't talk about credibility. ”
