Chapter 4 Urgent Letter on a Snowy Night
"Yes!" The young man turned around and glanced at the bookshelf, took out a booklet, turned around and handed it to Zheng Sheng, "Shizi." ”
Zheng Sheng thanked him, sat down and read the book carefully.
This endowment is not long, only a few hundred words, and the meaning is not difficult to understand. After reading the whole article, Zheng Sheng felt that this was a Western Jin Dynasty version of the women's moral code of regulations.
Mr. Zhang's purpose in writing this fu, and Mr. Qiu told them about it, was to express his dissatisfaction with Empress Jia's misdeeds and disrupting the government.
But what does it mean to be a sheep waiter? Zheng Sheng studied word by word, and he couldn't figure it out.
The door of the room opened quietly, Zhao Xiaoyi looked up at the person who came, his spirit perked up, the confusion in his eyes suddenly dissipated, he got up and said, "Teacher Liu......"
Liu Wei'er shook her head at him gently, then her eyebrows furrowed slightly, her still childish face leaked a little helpless, and she walked over: "Shizi, what book are you reading?" ”
Zheng Sheng raised his head, saw that it was her, pulled her to sit down, and said, "You came just in time, come!" Help me think about it, what is the meaning of this endowment? ”
Liu Wen'er took the book and said in surprise: "Female Shi Zhen? What do you mean by "......"?
Liu Yan'er's mind began to turn, and she thought of many possibilities for a moment, but in the next moment, she felt that her right hand was still being held by Zheng Sheng, which made her settle down, and she quietly withdrew her hand and listened carefully to what he said.
"Yes, it's the Fu written by Zhang Hua. You help me think about it. ”
Liu Wei'er put down the book, sat upright, and coughed lightly: "Shizi, isn't this endowment to persuade women?" What else does it mean? ”
Zheng Sheng told her Yang Jia's words word by word: "You say, what does he mean?" ”
Liu Yan'er couldn't guess Yang Jia's thoughts, so she had to persuade him: "Shizi, what he said may have hidden meanings, but we didn't think of it for the time being." Maybe you'll suddenly understand it later? Or, the next time you meet him, just ask him again. ”
Zheng Sheng nodded: "That's the only way." ”
The two walked out of the library together, and Liu Wen'er told him about the arrangements for the two days. At the end of the year, the most important thing for him in the near future is to return to Wancheng for the New Year. The Zheng family has been divided and merged in the past few years, and at this time they have finally become one and the same again.
In fact, Zheng Sheng did not want to do this. After splitting and reuniting, it turned out to be his task to deal with some chores within the family.
Nanyang Zheng's family is really not prosperous.
Now, Zheng Yuan has been ill for a long time, and Zheng Tan is in Qinzhou, so he can't take care of things. Although Zheng Qing is close to Shunyang, there are many affairs in the Great Agricultural Order. Zheng Wen is obsessed with business.
Before, only Zheng Han, who had dropped out, had time to take care of the housekeeper.
But in fact, it has been Zheng Han who has been working family affairs in the past few years.
However, Zheng Han was not reconciled to the failure of his political career, and he never stopped seeking to become a leader when he wanted to make a comeback, and he was not interested in family affairs. In addition, without the help of Zheng Sheng and Zheng Wen, the clansmen found that the business was not easy to mix, and the "cake" they could get shrank a lot compared to before, so they began to complain about the original separation.
Where there is an idea, there is action. After the adults discussed with each other, everyone's "misunderstanding" was resolved.
Zheng Wen was able to continue to be in charge of all the Zheng family's business, and Zheng Han borrowed Zheng Qing's face to make up for the official position of Shunyang Danshui Chief.
As a result, the daily affairs of the Zheng family were entrusted to Zheng Sheng by Zheng Yuan.
Zheng Sheng has "played" too much in the past two years, Zheng Yuan is afraid that he will cause * trouble again, since he loves tossing and refuses to spend a lot of effort to study, Zheng Yuan wants to use daily trivial things to consume his energy.
Zheng Sheng did not hesitate to accept the appointment, because he wanted to push the matter to his mother, Mrs. Wang. As a result, not long after he mentioned this topic to Mrs. Wang, his father who was far away in Qinzhou fell ill, and Mrs. Wang really went to Qinzhou.
Zheng Sheng didn't want to be bothered by trivial matters, so he racked his brains and came up with a solution: go and ask his uncle how to take care of the house.
Zheng Yuan did not embarrass him, and Zheng Sheng received several capable assistants from him and took on various specific duties. Zheng Sheng is only responsible for watching the results and making ideas in the back.
Despite this, Zheng Sheng still felt that his time was being greatly squeezed.
In order to get out of this predicament, there is always a way to find it. Since there are many things, can those people from the academy come to help him?
Zheng Sheng's idea did not arouse the opposition of the family, in Zheng Yuan's view, * is not as good as knowing people, a family should learn to use talents.
After the Zheng family returned to the old good, Zheng Sheng had no reason not to return to Wancheng to worship his ancestors and celebrate the New Year.
So in the past two days, Zheng Yuan has been sending people to urge Zheng Sheng to go on the road, but he is delaying time, not that he doesn't want to go back. But there are many things to deal with here in Wanquan Town, and he is also tired of going to the big city - Wancheng, and there are a group of "followers" around him who can't get rid of it.
How comfortable it is in Wanquan Town!
Zheng Sheng looked through the window at the dark night sky, where there were non-stop snowflakes falling dimly, and said, "If this snow is all night, it must be at least a foot thick of snow." The road is difficult to navigate......"
Liu Wei'er said: "Don't go to Nanyang?" ”
Zheng Sheng smiled: "How come? Must go, just wait two more days for the snow to melt before heading out. ”
Liu Wei'er nodded, smiled and said, "Okay, listen to you." It's three quarters now, so get some rest. ”
"When you go back, be careful of the road ......" Zheng Sheng instructed her, the door was suddenly violently slammed open, Zheng Sheng's words had to be abruptly stopped, and he was a little annoyed.
Feng Xuejia broke in with two or three figures: "Shizi, it's not good, something happened!" ”
Zheng Sheng saw a family member who was helped in by the two guards, his whole body was covered with flying snow, as if his whole body was frozen, and his face was purple, and he said tremblingly: "Shizi, something happened to the Xiangyang cargo team!" ”
Zheng Sheng frowned and asked, "Xiangyang cargo team?" Zheng Rufu's caravan? You say, what the hell is going on? ”
"Son, robber...... Robbers, robbed us of our goods, and returned ...... Kill our men......" he said in fits and starts.
Everyone was in high spirits and surprised. Robbers robbed, how is this possible?
Zheng Sheng walked up to him and said angrily, "Who did it?" Have you found out? ”
"Shizi, don't be angry." Liu Wen'er walked up to him and said. When they entered the door and saw the condition of the family, she took a big fur and instructed the brazier to burn it more vigorously, and then instructed the kitchen to cook ginger soup.
After Zheng Sheng and the other messengers drank the warm soup in their robes and stabilized their emotions, they asked, "Let's talk about it in detail, how is the situation of the caravan now?" ”
He was really strange, Zheng Rufu was a very safe person, and his caravan was taking the short-term route from Nanyang to Xiangyang, which had almost no risk, how could there be murder and robbery?
Because of the snow, it was not dark this afternoon, so Zheng asked the convoy to stop at Sunjiayi on the bank of the Han River, wanting to wait for the snow to cross the river. Which Cheng thought that he actually met robbers in Sunjiayi......"
