Chapter 54: Painting the Wall

"Are you sure you haven't heard of this Meng Haoran?"

At this time, Wu Ning stroked his chin, frowned, and looked at the poems on the wall.

"This Meng Haoran, the poetry is comfortable, the writing is free, and he is not an unknown person. It's a pity that the old man is lonely and doesn't know this person. ”

"I can't think of ......," the old man looked down at the baby in his arms.

"Unexpectedly, such a capable man has the same name as my grandson."

"Uh-huh....."

Wu Ning was silent, and said in his heart, can't you?

Meng Haoran is such a big person, not only does the Dugu Ao and Lei Ji who came some time ago not recognize it, but even this old man doesn't recognize it?

People in the Tang Dynasty didn't know Meng Haoran? You're too uneducated, aren't you?

Won't it be ......?

When he raised his eyes, he saw the baby in the old man's arms grinning at him.

This child's name is Meng Hao, and his name is Haoran...... People from Yangyang!!

It can't be that I'm uneducated, right?

"Ahem." Thinking of this, Wu Ning almost choked on himself and coughed twice.

"What's that......"

"Uncle is sure that there is no poem in Xiangyang that everyone has the same name as your grandson?"

"No!!" The old man was very sure.

"Don't hide it from Xiao Langjun, the Meng family is still somewhat famous in Xiangyang, if there is such a person, the old man will not know."

"Oh...."Wu Ning nodded expressionlessly.

Xiangyang big family, that should be right.

A fierce shout: "Wu Li! ”

"Yes."

"Come and paint the wall!!"

“......”

"It's okay!"

Wu Ning pretended to be free and easy, pointed to the wall and said: "It must be a nameless junior, deceiving the world and stealing his name." Don't care, don't worry, you shouldn't have seen it. ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the guest room stiffly with his hands behind his back. After going out, I didn't forget to wipe a cold sweat.

It's terrible to be uneducated!

Wu Li carried the ash bucket into the house, and muttered reluctantly: "The guests haven't left yet, which wall are you brushing!?" ”

"Phew, this Wu Laojiu., will support people!"

“......”

“!!!!”

The old man was also wondering, I haven't left yet, which wall did you paint?

Besides, what does it mean to not see everything?

However, Wu Li's thought of it like this, the old man was excited.

"This little brother, what do you call the shopkeeper?"

"Wu Laojiu!" Wu Li was confident, "He is ranked ninth, two months younger than us." ”

"Why don't you just call him Wu Laojiu?"

“......”

The old man is not calm, Wu Laojiu...... Wu Jiu...... Five-nine!

Could it be that this young man is the one who got "Wujiu" in Xiao Xianchang's mouth, that Wu Jiu?

But on second thought, it's not right, right?

How could such a young man from a small shop in the mountains help my grandson? How can you be for Wu Jiu, who "got it from 59"?

......

——————————

The days that followed were uneventful but hopeful.

The old man of the Meng family finally returned to Xiangyang, but when he left, he entrusted his old friends in Fangzhou to pay more attention to this Wu Ning.

Although it is unlikely to be him, it is not a bad thing to keep an eye on it.

The charcoal kiln has already begun to store materials, although it is busy in autumn, and everyone is busy with the work in the field, but Zujun issued a death order, and everyone still took time to go up the mountain to pick up a little dry branch and save it first, but it was a little slower.

This year, there are several inns in the col that are doing brisk business, and a few more stores will also open with the help of Wu Jiulang in the future. If the kiln factory can change the predicament and prosper again, then Xiashan Pass will not only be able to have a good year, but also have a head start in the future.

Sibo Wu Changlu is getting busier and busier.

As soon as the admonition of the two thousand soldiers came to an end, the fourth uncle received an order from above, asking him to pull the horses to the junction of the state capital and stand by.

I heard that the Beijing envoy arrived in Fangzhou in early October.

What made Wu Ning unhappy was that the fourth uncle took Wu Qi away before leaving. It was not with the army, but sent to Wu Qi's maternal uncle's house.

This year is Wu Qiniang's uncle's fiftieth birthday, although the two families have been negligent since the death of his mother, but the fiftieth birthday is something that cannot be missed.

In this regard, Wu Ning is also a dog, especially when to celebrate his birthday, he has to rush to pass at this time, when he is busy!!

Recently, his Xuncuiju no longer needs any pilgrims to support his business, with the imminent arrival of Wu Chengsi, Wu Sansi, and Princess Taiping, not to mention his high-end homestay with only two rooms, the big car shops in the city are already overcrowded.

Fangzhou is full of scholars wearing scribe robes, and the streets are full of scholars and literati, just waiting for the Wu brothers to arrive, hoping to show their faces and seek a good future.

In this regard, Wu Ning didn't feel inappropriate at all, the chaos in the election and the formation of factions have a fart relationship with me?

He knew that as soon as these people came, he would be right to do this business.

It's a pity that Wu Qi is not there, and there is one less free laborer.

After Li Wenbo was busy, Chef Luo was busy cooking the meals of the three families, but because he lived in the city, he was not there in the morning and evening, and it was indeed a bit difficult to rely on Wu Ning alone.

There was no way, Wu Ning could only start to flicker.

"You two have moved to live in the col, and you are not in the store this morning and night, so where can I be busy alone?"

"That's not going to work!" Chef Luo glared, "I said that I wouldn't need the two of us sooner or later, but now I can't regret it!" ”

Li Wenbo is also a little embarrassed, he, like Raleigh, still has an old lady at home and needs to be taken care of sooner or later.

"The master's house....", "the mother of the family is frail, and the neighborhood usually takes care of it better, if you live in the ..... of the Aozi."

The implication is that the old lady can't do without people.

"You're stupid!" Wu Ning glanced at Li Wenbo, "Let me ask you, what is the most sought-after in Fangzhou City at the moment?" ”

Li Wenbo didn't think about it, "Of course it's the guest room." ”

"But even so, Wenbo is not good to leave the old lady's special customer store!"

"What kind of business are you going to learn from me? Marry a wife and go home as soon as possible to coax the children! "Wu Ning hates that iron can't make steel.

"You can take the old lady down the mountain pass, don't you have it. Isn't it beautiful that the houses in the city are so scarce, and you can rent them out and get a sum of money? ”

Li Wenbo thought about it, yes!

"Is this appropriate?"

"How is it not appropriate?" Wu Ning raised his eyebrows.

"The rooms in Brother Qi's house that are going to be an inn are still empty, you clean up one or two and live first!"

"Don't worry, I'll pay for your mother's illness to help you find Langzhong."

"This...."Li Wenbo's eyes were tied.

Although it was because of Wu Ning's commission money that he came down to the mountain to pay a commission, this master is really good.

"What is this?" Wu Ning patted Li Wenbo on the shoulder, "That's it!" ”

Leaned over to Li Wenbo's side and pointed at Chef Luo with his eyebrows, "He.... It's up to you! ”

Li Wenbo immediately understood, "Don't worry, the master!" Nodding heavily, "Give it to the little one!" ”

Thereupon.....

Chef Luo moved to Xiashan Col in a daze, and changed from a city man to a country man in a daze.

By the time the backlash came, it was too late.

"I haven't had a daughter-in-law in my twenties, and I've become a countryman again, so I can't marry a daughter-in-law!?"

......

——————————

In mid-October, the Beijing envoy finally arrived in Fangzhou.

Wu Ning was too busy to take a look.

I heard that on the day of entering the city, half of the people of Fangzhou gathered on the official road outside the city, wanting to see the figure of Princess Taiping.

In this regard, Wu Ning can only scoff at it, a group of uninformed city people! Isn't she just a princess? What is there to see? It's not like I haven't seen it!

Well, he really hasn't seen it.

It's just that I heard that the pomp is very big, and it looks different from the women in the city.

Moreover, Her Royal Highness the princess is very beautiful, and many people look straight at it.

......

It's a pity that no matter how expressive he is, Wu Ning doesn't have time to think about it now.

At this time, Wu Laojiu was standing in his own courtyard, pinching his waist and his face full of energy.

"It's gone, it's gone! Several inns in the col are full, and there are really no rooms. ”

Lei Ji and Dugu in front of them were arrogant, and their faces were bitter, "Xiao Langjun help, otherwise the two of us will have to go to sleep in the wilderness!" ”

"I can't help it!" Wu Ning spread his hands, "You can't kick the guests out and make room for you, right?" ”

"No, I'm wondering."

Wu Ning looked at Dugu Ao, "Aren't you a local?" Why don't you have a place to live? ”

When Dugu Ao heard this, he almost didn't cry to Wu Ning.

lamented: "Bad luck, the house has been requisitioned!" ”

Get!

Wu Ning rolled his eyes, did he see it, the so-called big families in the city also have bad luck!

The Beijing envoy brought so many people to serve, where can the house built in half a year live? Maybe how many rich people are unlucky and temporarily kicked out of their homes.

"Then I can't help it, unless you two are willing to sleep in the same room with me."

Thinking about it, Lei Ji hurriedly said: "That's okay!" ”

Wu Ning: "......"

looked at Chef Luo, "See?" It's crazy to rob a house! ”

"Don't you thank your master for making you a lot of money?"

......

——————————————

At this time, there was another person in the courtyard who was standing peacefully in Uncle Ugly's house, silently looking at Wu Ning through the window.

This person is only about thirty years old, but he is dressed in a python robe with a green belt, swallow wings and black sand, and his white face has the elegance of a literati, but he was born with a pair of eagle eyes, which makes the whole person a little heroic.

"This.... Is that the kid? ”

The ugly uncle beside him nodded, "This... That's the kid! ”

The scribe tilted his head and looked at the ugly uncle, which was quite playful: "According to the talent of the resident brother, why should the foolish brother teach him?" ”

Uncle Scandal shook his head when he heard this, "I can't teach him." ”

"Oh? Why? ”

"He's too much like a man."

"Who?"

"I used to be."

"The former ......" the scribe was stunned, "the former Helan Minzhi!?" ”

"Yes!!"

Uncle Ugly nodded, "This son is talented, and he will do something." ”

"It's a pity that he is too similar to me back then, and I'm afraid that he will become another me."

"The other one?" The scribe was even more surprised, "Where is the like?" ”

The ugly uncle smiled and said word by word: "Son, play!" ”

"He was so conceited, so clever that the world seemed like a child's play to him."

"Understood."

The scribe looked at Wu Ning outside the window, "Another unruly guy." ”

"Huh." Uncle Scandal smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Where is he unruly!?" He has no rules at all!! ”

"Hahaha." The scribe laughed, "Interesting! ”

"Tell me, how do you want me to teach? Do you bring it with you? Or do you want to be accepted as a disciple? ”

"Neither." Uncle Ugly looked at the scribe, "I want you to leave the court for a while and concentrate on teaching!" ”

When the scribe heard this, he was silent, bowed his head and began to groan.

Long.

"Good! Just according to the resident brother. ”

“......”

The scribe agreed so happily that the ugly uncle was a little unhappy.

"Boyu, if you still have ambitions in your heart, you can think about it a few years later."

"No!"

The scribe waved his hand generously, "Back then, my resident brother was wronged, but he didn't forget to risk his life to help me in high school. ”

"If there is no permanent resident brother, where is the Jinshi Chen Ziang?"

"This favor, Ziang has helped!"

When the ugly uncle heard this, his heart was shocked, and he gave a big gift, "Foolish brother, thank you here!" ”

Chen Ziang stepped forward to help him up, "Between brothers, how can you thank you?" ”

There was a reminiscence in his eyes, "Back then, most of my old friends were outside the mountains with my brother being wronged, and now I am the only one left in Beijing, and I don't want to stay anymore." ”

Na Cheng thought, when the ugly uncle heard it, he blamed himself even more, "I am the one who has caused them!" ”

"Where's the word?" Chen Ziang persuaded, "If they knew that the eldest brother was still in the world, they didn't know how happy they would be!" ”

“......”

The ugly uncle was silent, and said for a while: "What about her......"

His eyes seemed to be evasive, he didn't dare to ask, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Youyi her..... How are you doing? ”

Chen Ziang said: "Don't worry, eldest brother, sister-in-law is doing well!" After so many years, he still refuses to remarry, and has been waiting for his eldest brother. ”

"One day, the eldest brother will be wronged, and there will be a goodbye period!"

“!!!”

The ugly uncle only felt a cramping pain in his heart, and closed his eyes fiercely.

"Let her.... Remarry! ”

......

"Don't mention that!"

Chen Ziang knew that the more he talked, the more uncomfortable his brother felt in his heart.

Diverted the topic and said: "Brother Wu Chengsi also came to Fangzhou this time, and it is better for my brother to be careful." ”

"In my brother's opinion, it's better for my brother to stay away."

Uncle Ugly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Boyu doesn't need to worry about this, he has his own plans for his brother." ”

looked at Wu Ning who was dancing with teeth and claws in the courtyard.

"Boyu still thinks about it, how to put him away."

Chen Ziang didn't care, "Child, discipline and discipline, you will naturally be sensible." ”

"Huh." The ugly uncle laughed dryly, "Boyu, don't treat him as a child." ”

Pointing to the guest room, "By the way, Boyu go to the guest room and have a look, there is still a poem you left there." ”

"Huh??"

Chen Ziang raised his eyebrows, when did I leave a poem with you?

Seeing that the kid led the two scholars into the house, Chen Ziang was interested, walked out of the ugly uncle's room, and walked towards the guest room.

Go in and take a look, ho~~! Good poetry!

I don't see the ancients before, and I don't see the comers after.

Thinking of the world and the world, I was alone and wept.

Payment: Chen Ziang!?

Chen Ziang scratched the back of his neck and wondered:

I wrote ??? When did I write it?

Such a good sentence, if only I had written it!

Looking at the poems on the wall, I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly, "This is really a kid who treats everything as child's play." ”

"Shop!!" shouted, "Get pen and ink!" ”

"Here we go!"

Wu Ning trotted out of the room, holding an inkstone brush in his hand.

You don't have to ask to know that this is the guest who is interested in writing a wall poem.

The heart said, you can fill the wall with it, so that I don't have to be caught in fake and shoddy bags!

"Guest officer, please!!"

Wu Ning personally inked ink on the side.

Chen Ziang picked up the pen, muttered a little in front of the wall, and then wrote the dragon and snake under the famous sentence of Chen Ziang, and stopped in four sentences.

"Zi Angnan travels to the mountain dwelling, sighing about the ancient and modern meanings...."

Wu Ning's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart, finally someone dares to "post back" under this poem!

Concentrate and look again:

"Zi Angnan travels to the mountain dwelling, sighing at the ancient and modern meanings."

"Who knew that there was Chen Boyu earlier, and he was also pretending to be on the wall."

Chen Ziang wrote four sentences, dropped the pen, and enjoyed it quite satisfactorily for a while.

Then he smiled playfully at Wu Ning, "The store tastes three of them, and the official... Leave! ”

As he spoke, he walked out with his head held high and went down the mountain.

......

Wu Ning held the inkstone, and the five views were all twisted together.

"Who knew that there was Chen Boyu who was also pretending to be on the wall??"

No, what do you mean?

What do you mean!?

"No, you're back!!"

hurriedly chased out, where is there still the shadow of that person?

Standing in the courtyard blankly, "Who the hell is this person?" Smash the field!? ”

But the ugly uncle came out of the room with a smile on his face, "I don't know if it's a smashing field, but I know who it is." ”

"Who!?" Wu Ning glared, "I'll look for him!" ”

I heard that the ugly uncle said slowly: "Princess Taiping's Mansion Chief Shi ....."

"Chen Ziang."

"Quack ???" Wu Ning was stunned for a moment.

Chen Chen Chen, Chen Ziang??

Subconsciously looked back at the house, grandma's, was bumped into again?

"Wu Li !!"

There was a loud roar.

"In it...."

"Paint the wall!"

......
