18. Wine comfort
The monk found that the group of people did not come out when they arrived at Niu's house, and he was worried that Niu Lixin would not be able to cope with it, so he went to the inner courtyard and told Abbot Yunchi and Teacher Su. They were having fasting, and Daozhen said: "I know Niu Lixin's methods, I have tried those people, and they are not Niu Lixin's opponents." Teacher Su said: "We are going to live here for a long time, and we can't rely on impulse to disturb your plan and the growth of Shi Qi. ”
When Mr. Su arrived at Niu Lixin's house, he happened to meet Niu Lixin who was trying to be rude with Yang Cheng, and Mr. Su said: "A few guests from afar, our young man usually goes down the mountain less, and the etiquette is not good. ”
Young Master Yang said: "He burned us, this dynasty is a murderer to pay for his life, and he owes debts to pay back, can you accompany him to solve the problem?" Teacher Su said, "What do you say?" Things have to be settled. As soon as Teacher Su understood, he knew that it was his own apprentice who caused the trouble, and he waited quietly for the young master of the Yang family to speak.
Yang Cheng looked at Teacher Su, and then looked at Niu Lixin, but he didn't see a little frightened look, Yang Cheng said: "It was the child who burned me today, and the son and father repaid it, so that his family can talk to the young master, my scalding is small, and it is not a trivial matter to delay the young master." Teacher Su said: "I am his teacher, take him up to see the mountain view, his house is at the bottom of the mountain, I can call the shots, you opened the plate, I think if I can take it, I won't go back to trouble the lord of the house." ”
Yang Cheng looked at Shi Caishuang, and then looked at Young Master Yang, there was a sweeping monk just now on the mountain, and there was a big local household under the mountain, they couldn't take advantage of the current situation. For Shi Caishuang, he can't succeed, at least not now, the hero doesn't suffer the loss in front of him, Yang Cheng said: "Since you can be the master, then accompany five taels of silver to heal the injury, he is a child of a big family, isn't it difficult?" ”
Teacher Su said: "I can call the shots for five taels of silver, but I don't have any preparations, and you happen to be going down the mountain, why don't you go to the prince's house for dinner, and ask the old man to give you silver, what do you think?" The young master of the Yang family said: "Don't bother, we still have to hurry, it looks like we are going to blackmail your silver, it's really unlucky, I heard that the incense here is good, I want to ask for a lottery, but I didn't expect it to be all bad luck." After he looked at Shi Caishuang, he swallowed his saliva and went down the mountain, Yang Cheng saw all this in his eyes, but this was not a place where he could play, he thought that he had the ability to do it all over, but he only earned a body of broth and some permanent burn memories.
On the way down the mountain, Mr. Su and Shi Qi said: "You are still young, society is very complicated, impulsiveness cannot solve all problems, you poured other people's broth, what can you do if he fights back?" Of course, there is Niu Lixin who can protect you today, but what if you are alone? You must learn the ability first, and you must also pay attention to hiding your ability, which is only used for self-defense, not for recklessness. ”
Shi Qi asked, "Teacher, why can Master Daozhen and Uncle Lixin beat them, but they don't do anything at all, and let them be arrogant?" Teacher Su said, "You have seen the appearance of the mountains, when did the tigers in the forest take the initiative to nourish their teeth everywhere?" Only monkeys like to show their teeth and claws, the usual tiger is not angry and self-threatening, it only needs to bask in the sun peacefully, those small animals running around all day long, look domineering, robbing, but once you meet a tiger, is it the initiative to hide? You only need to accumulate the ability of the tiger now, the days of basking in the sun are ahead, as long as the ability is there, it is natural to be powerful, they just don't know the ability of Lixin and Daozhen, because Master Daozhen has more important things waiting for him, and he can't make a mess, you are small, and you will understand when you are big. ”
Shi Caishuang said when eating: "You can go up the mountain to fight tigers all day long, and when you encounter things, you are not as bloody as a child like Shi Qi, if I have your ability, I must teach them a good lesson and let them know what is afraid?" And they're not locals, what can they do after the fight? We didn't mess with them. Niu Lixin said: "People are out of town, that is, begging for a meal, I also feel from my father's eyes that they may be disrespectful to you, but after all, it is just a verbal unhappiness, if you really do something to you, you know, if I start, it is not broth, they may not leave so easily, since I was a child, my father taught me to let go of things, you don't take it too seriously." Niu Lixin looked at Mei Yaoming, who was eating with his head bored, he didn't answer, and he didn't look up at them, which was different from usual.
After the meal, Mei Yaoming called Niu Lixin into his house, Mei Yaoming said: "You came back late, I didn't hear the first half of them talking, they are the family friends of the Ouyang family, and they entered Beijing to find that old thing to be an official, you didn't mess with them right, I also heard his disrespectful words to your daughter-in-law, and it is estimated that he will come back, and then you can learn more about our enemy's situation from them." Niu Lixin said: "They left angrily, even if they come back, they won't come to us, the family feud you mentioned, now Niu Yuemei will also run away, it's better for me to give him a break, won't Liang'an save you from worrying?" Let Shi Caishuang see my blood. ”
Mei Yaoming said: "If Niu Yuemei were a son, I would have planned with you how to take revenge, but now, if you make a mistake, our Mei family will have no descendants." I also inquired from Mr. Su, now the temple is full of incense, and there is a lot of news from all sides, sometimes those who have been incense come to my door to rest for a while, I will also pretend to ask unintentionally, revenge, how easy it is to talk, the other party is the prime minister under one person, it is difficult to meet, you only have brute force, how many traps there are in his courtyard, you can't figure out where he lives, even if he has three heads and six arms, it may not help. ”
Mei Yaoming sighed, he hoped that Shi Caishuang would have a few more, now that his body has recovered, walking, it may not be realistic, but it will not be over for a while. He can help Niu Lixin train children, if it is a son, it just so happens that Daozhen can't leave for a while, he knows that Daozhen's enemy family is also the Ouyang Ximu family.
Yang Cheng and his entourage accompanied the young master to Ouyang Xiang's mansion, and after being informed, his family asked him to come back the next day. After arriving home the next day, looking at Yang Weihu waiting in the living room, Ouyang Ximu said: "Time is really fast, you were still a child when your father and I were in the same dynasty, but it's a pity, your father is so talented, and he is my rare confidant, just because he disagrees with my change to the laws and regulations on land and property, and he doesn't want to offend my old friend, he resigned from his official position and went home." ”
Yang Weihu took out his father's letter and said: "It's all his old man who doesn't know the current affairs, this is his letter to you, please see if you can give me a career in my hometown." Ouyang Ximu looked at the letter repeatedly and said: "Yes, the writing is still so neat, it's just that the person is old, this is not his style back then, with the temper of the year, he will not write such a letter, if he himself is willing to come out, I can consider giving him an official position that is no worse than back then." ”
Yang Weihu said: "This letter was written by my mother begging him, I have been delayed, I went to Beijing to take the exam several times, but he didn't let me come to you, I didn't pass the exam." Not only will he not come out again, but he is also embarrassed to see you again, Uncle Ouyang, you see? Do I still want to take the test this time? If I go to take the test, can you write me a note? ”
Ouyang Ximu said: "The recruitment of talents is also a rare consensus between me and your father, but I didn't expect that twenty years later, it is not me who has changed, but he has also changed." You have to take the exam, and the official position is not in my hands, but in the exam papers and books. You stayed at my house before the exam, but you were not allowed to swagger in my name, and I knew that my sons, and the people in the family who later abused my name to go out to be officials, may have caused me a lot of trouble outside, and I am too busy with change to deal with them, and once I have my hands free, I will not make it easy for them. ”
Yang Weihu was very obedient and serious in the Xiangfu for a while, and Yang Cheng told him that as long as the Xiangye heard his seriousness and went to take the exam as the son of a friend of the Xiangfu, the officials who took the examination would definitely not dare to slack off, and it was obvious that high school was. Yang Weihu confidently went to the examination room, he thought that he played better than the previous times, in order not to let his prestige interfere with the objective scoring of Yang Weihu's examination papers, Ouyang Ximu strictly instructed the examiner to review according to the truth.
After the exam papers were unsealed, Yang Weihu's results were placed on the desk of the main exam, and he was really on the list. But Ouyang Ximu's explanation made the two examiners have to pay attention to it, because he said that Yang Weihu is different from his father, and Yitu has achieved good results through Ouyang's relationship. The two old gentlemen also knew that Yang Weihu's father did not support the reform and the fact that Ouyang Ximu was split, so that Ouyang Ximu almost became a loner in the DPRK that year. If Ouyang Ximu wants to take care of it, they don't admit it, Xiang Ye can also notify the officials to make up the record, and after thinking about it, he decisively took out Yang Weihu and replaced the next lucky person.
He played well, and he ate and lived in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yang Weihu thought that he would definitely be admitted, and he was more confident than others when he looked at the list, but there was really no name on the list. returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, without waiting for his request, Ouyang Ximu took the initiative to find him and said: "In order to recruit more capable people to participate in the reform and reform, a lot of places have been put in this year, but you still haven't been admitted, it's not that I'm not emotional, and your father doesn't want you to be an official through me." He doesn't come to see me, you go back for me to say hello to him, and live in my house in the next round of exams, and learn real skills. ”
Yang Weihu didn't dare to attack when he was angry, and when he went back and passed by the foot of Lin Qiansi Mountain, Yang Cheng proposed to go up the mountain to have a look, and deliberately mentioned Shi Caishuang's little lady. Yang Weihu said: "It's all bad luck on the way to come, if you don't go up, how can you have the face to go up again, when you go, you say a big thing, it's an exam, it's a letter from the master, and people go to tea and cool." It's ridiculous to think about my father, he was also worried about how big an official his letter would get, and asked me to start as a small official, people, really don't experience loss, I don't know that the sun also goes down. ”
