Chapter 216: It's All Touched
The three happy events in life, being promoted to become rich and dying of his wife, Cao Wei didn't know which one Wang Shouren occupied, and he was so happy. Although Wang Shouren couldn't hold back a smile, the joy in his eyebrows and eyes couldn't hide it, but with his thin and dark face, Cao Wei saw a faint cheapness.
"Brother Wang, what is the happy event that makes you laugh so happily, let me be happy when I say it!"
Wang Shouren shook his head and waved his hand: "Lord Cao said that I was not happy, I only have a normal heart, a normal heart...... I'm getting married, I'm getting married, ha! Keep a normal heart......"
He said that he kept a normal heart, but his body was very honest, this kind of sullen man was the most annoying, I really didn't expect the future saint to be like this, could it be that he was close to ink? So who is Mo ...... It must be Zhu Houzhao!
Cao Wei arched his hand perfunctorily towards Wang Shouren and said, "Congratulations!" β
Wang Shouren was stunned for a moment, scratched his head and said, "Brother Cao doesn't seem to be very happy to hear that he is getting married......"
"Brother Wang, as a senior, I must pass on some experience to you, so that you can know the true meaning of life in advance. Do you really think it's nice to get married? In fact, marriage is the grave of love, the people in the tomb are free, and the people outside the tomb are happy, so there are people jumping in, and Brother Wang, you are the fool who is jumping into the grave.
Take me as an example, I used to be a person who loved to look up at the sky, and the blue sky always gave me the courage to survive, but now I like the deep night sky, which embraces all darkness and forbearance, leaving tears and no one sees......"
Wang Shouren couldn't help but shudder, and said with a wry smile: "Lord Cao, will the days after marriage really be so dark?" β
Cao Wei got up and put his hands on him, turned his back to Wang Shouren, sighed and said: "Brother Wang, I haven't married yet, my lady is gentle and virtuous, extremely beautiful, sticking to me all day long, all like birds, that time is really comfortable."
But now it's different, now I can't see the figure of my lady all day long, and I can't find anyone for dinner, it's just lawless.
Brother Wang, do you think it will be a storm after getting married? In fact, there is only endless nagging, as if marrying a mother-in-law, think about the way your mother disciplines you in front of you, and your wife will do this to you in the future. Congratulations, Brother Wang, you will have two mothers after getting married! β
Wang Shouren's face was pale, obviously he didn't think there was anything worth congratulating about, and he arched his hand and said: "Thank you Lord Cao for your teachings, I am grateful, so I won't leave much ......."
"Our brother, there is no need to say thank you, I received a holy decree today, I want to go to the border pass, so I can't go to your wedding, I hope you forgive me."
"It's okay, I don't want to go ...... down"
What does it mean that the groom does not want to be present on the day of marriage? Before Cao Wei could ask, Wang Shouren left in a hurry, completely without the joy he had when he first came, and from his back, Cao Wei read the meaning of panic.
"I haven't asked who the bride is, simple jokes, this sullen man can't be serious......"
Cao Wei didn't know how much impact his joke today had on Wang Shouren, and after he had done a good job, seeing that Xie Wan hadn't come back yet, he went to Meifu alone to visit his teacher.
Mei Gongbo was not at home as usual, and was still on an errand in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. In fact, in the Ming Dynasty, not all officials are as debauched as Cao Wei, not only because there are leaders above, but also because officials need to be faced, after all, in the Ming Dynasty, there are only a handful of officials like Cao Wei who skip classes, and they can even be said to be unique.
The briquettes have grown up a little more, but they are still very chubby, and when they saw Cao Wei, they ran over and walked around Cao Wei, and Jad Demei rolled her eyes softly, scolding it for being an immature white-eyed wolf.
When the time came, Mei Gongbo finally returned, and Cao Wei stepped forward to salute meticulously. Don't look at Cao Wei who doesn't come to Meifu often, but he is extremely close to Mei Gongbo, Cao Wei knows in his heart that if there is anyone in this world who is willing to give up his life for himself, then his mentor Mei Gongbo is definitely counted as one.
A pot of sake, a few side dishes, the master and apprentice drank together, Mei Gongbo seemed very happy, no matter how Cao Wei toasted, he drank it all without hesitation.
"Teacher, the student has received the holy decree and will leave for the border tomorrow to discuss the affairs of the Fang City with the Tatars, so I can't come to see you for some days, so you should take care of your health.
The students came this time to bring some wild ginseng, so you can drink some ginseng soup when you are fine. If you don't have enough money in the house, go to the student house to get it, we are all a family, don't see ...... outside."
Mei Gongbo quietly listened to Cao Wei's advice, and when he finished speaking, he nodded and said: "Don't worry, the old man will take care of his body, but you are at the border, but you must pay attention to safety, although His Majesty has negotiated with the Tatars, but the Tatars are repetitive, and they must be guarded again." The old man is old, I just hope that you and Qingrou can be safe, and there is nothing else to ask for. β
Cao Wei was silent for a moment and said, "Teacher, I originally thought that going to the border pass was just for fun, but after listening to your words, I feel that the border pass is dangerous, otherwise you will tell Your Majesty to go to another person?" β
"It's not promising!" Mei Gongbo glared at him and said, "The eldest husband must not be so cowering, besides, if the old man goes to tell His Majesty that the old man's students retreat because of timidity, then where will the old man's old face be in the future?" So you better go with peace of mind, your home is taken care of by the old man. β
Cao Wei was very embarrassed to hear this last sentence, not like a farewell, but like a funeral.
Mei Gongbo drank a glass of wine and said, "Do you know what the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs in the court thinks of you?" β
Cao Wei was stunned and said, "Meng? β
"Cute fart!" Mei Gongbo glared at him angrily, and said: "Your situation is more complicated, you are not only a waiter in the East Palace, a doctor in Fengzhi, but also an envoy of Jinyi Wei, it can also be said that you are neither a pure civil official nor a pure military attachΓ©, so the ministers of the court and the central government have a good sense of you regardless of civil and military affairs."
Yang Ting and Lord Yang praised you, saying that you were beneficial to the prince's studies, worthy of the position of a scholar, and that you were brilliant in writing and making rapid progress. Li Dongyang, a university scholar, seems to have a good impression of you, you kid is really a blessing. β
Cao Wei shook his head and said: "This has nothing to do with any blessings, the main thing is that the appearance is high...... Don't stare at you, your eyes aren't tired all day, why are you telling me this today? β
"The old man wants to tell you that you are now civil and martial, but it is better to choose one of the roads, step on two boats, and sooner or later it will capsize."
Cao Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Teacher, the positions on the students are all rewarded by His Majesty, and it is Wen is Wuquan in His Majesty's thoughts, and the students are helpless." In fact, the student didn't want to be an official anymore, and today he still wanted to return to his hometown, but he was stopped by Xiao Jing and Xiao Gong. β
Mei Gongbo frowned and said, "Why did you get Xiao Jing again?" How many boats are you treading on? β
Cao Wei folded his hands and counted: "Wenwu, Xungui, and factory guards, as long as there are in the court, I will be on the side!" β
