Chapter 3 Xu Caizheng Teaches
Since this world is divided into men and women, men and women are different, if it is said that the world is well governed, the judge is naturally good at men, but if he is thoughtful and secretly calculating, he still has to count women, seeing Xu Caizheng carrying Xu Shande home with a thief in his arms, he looks like a thief, so that others can see, even if he is fine, he has to discuss something, but Mrs. Xu's words have melted Xu Caizheng's nervousness.
On the second day, without Zhang Damao coming in person, Xu Caizheng went out as a housekeeper early, came to the famous people in the township, invited all the respected people, set up a banquet at home, announced in public, and accepted Xu Shande, a righteous son, as for the origin, it is natural to say that someone abandoned it halfway, and Xu Caizheng saw it, and couldn't bear to die in the mouth of the tiger and wolf, so he hugged it back, as for the details, it was naturally hidden. I have to say that Xu Caizheng's reason is very legitimate, no one can refute it, although the Great Song Dynasty is now friendly with the Xia Dynasty and the Great Liao, but the border is not peaceful after all, and the nameless dead bodies can often be seen in the wild, everyone is accustomed to it, so this time it is normal for Xu Caizheng to pick up a child, no matter how you say it, this is just a family matter of the Xu family, as long as the Xu family recognizes it, outsiders can say something.
So does the Xu family recognize this child, the villagers all turned their heads to look at Xu Caizheng's two wives, but the two ladies were smiling, at least they didn't see anything unusual on the surface, so that those who were waiting to see the excitement were not disappointed. So are these two ladies really willing, naturally they are unwilling, last night when Xu Caizheng came out, to see that they really hugged a big fat boy back, the angry two ladies ran directly to the old lady to cry, the old lady is also a woman, naturally knows what the two of them think, and when the two cried for a while, the old lady pretended to be unhappy and said: "What are you crying about, don't say that this child was picked up, even if my family really looks at a woman and marries home, can you still say anything!" Besides, that child is just taking him as a righteous son, that is, he does not share your property, nor does he occupy your place, if he grows up and becomes a talent, he can still help you a thing or two, and now he just wants to eat a mouthful of food from our family, what are you not satisfied with! What the old lady said was reasonable, and she also gave a guarantee to the two ladies, what these two people were asking for, what were they afraid of, wasn't they afraid that there would suddenly be an extra child in the family and divide the property, now that the old lady has opened the explanation, the two have nothing to fight about, and they are unwilling, and they can be regarded as accepting Xu Shande.
In this way, everyone was happy, and when the banquet was over, Zhang Damao found Xu Caizheng, and said that the county order Peng Deran meant, that Xu Caizheng had a matter of heart at this time, was happy, and his heart was also a little empty-hearted, thought about it, and agreed to it, and wrote it himself, thinking about it now, there is now a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who is his own disciple, and now he is in charge of the promotion and assessment of foreign officials, so he repaired a book, first of all, Peng Deran has no fault for three years, and then slightly used some words of praise, and wrote that Peng Deran has a good governance, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, and then handed over the letter to Zhang Damao, who forwarded it to Peng Deran, and when Peng Deran went to Beijing to report on his work, he would naturally be able to use it somewhat.
Xu Caizheng can't be a Beijing official for 20 years in vain, there is still some research on the doorway of official assessment, if it is placed ten years ago, an official like Peng Deran, should be regarded as the Song Dynasty's favorite, but also the most, the easiest to do officials, every three years of assessment, as long as there is no fault during the tenure, it is meritorious, when it comes to the assessment, there must be a promotion, even if it is not promoted, it must be transferred to the mainland, make up for a fat difference, but since Fan Zhongyan's new policy, this policy has been abolished, and it has been changed to an official who is not at fault. If the population does not increase and the taxes do not rise during the three-year rule, the minimum is to stay in office, and in the worst case, they will be demoted and suspended. But another year passed, and the gentlemen of the New Deal led by Fan Zhongyan were all transferred out of the capital, and the New Deal was no longer in place, and it returned to the old routine.
Xu Caizheng's letter was written in accordance with the current assessment standards of the Ministry of Officials, Peng Deran is a small county order, where do you know so many doorways, see the letter, see that Xu Caizheng did not praise himself, but also praised himself a few words, Peng Deran is self-aware, he knows that this is enough, and he is also very happy, and he naturally takes more care of Zhang Damao's Fuping Township.
The first year of Huangyou passed like this, the waves were not alarmed, there were no ripples, in the blink of an eye to the second year of Huangyou, the Great Song Dynasty continued his development, and his colleague Xu Shande also lived in Xu's mansion, Xu Caizheng took Xu Shande home when he looked at Xu Shande was only one year old, plus he was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was really well-behaved and good-looking, such a baby, anyone who saw it would like it, especially the old lady Xu's mother, who was reluctant to let go every time she held it in her arms, although the two ladies had the heart to take care of it, but after all, they were not those jealous women, after a while, also adapted to the existence of Xu Shande, their children should have food, there will also be Xu Shande to eat, this year, Xu Shande from the arms of the swaddling can successfully walk on the ground, and Xu Caizheng two sons, the eldest is already twelve years old, the younger is seven years old, and the youngest daughter is already five years old, are already able to read and write, Xu Cai is idle at home, so he began to teach his children work.
Speaking of educating children, don't look at Xu Caizheng, who is the former son of the country, teaching the pride of the sky, the rich and noble, and the world's talents, but teaching others is one thing, and when it comes to teaching his own son, it is another thing, thinking that this Xu Cai is in the officialdom and does not know how to be flexible, only admits death, when teaching his son, he is still an image of a gentleman, the two sons and a daughter began to watch their father in class It was very fun, and listened carefully for two days, but the scriptures were boring, not to mention that the child Xu Jing was only seven years old, Daughter Xu Ling is only four years old, even the eldest Xu Zheng can't listen to it anymore, and when Xu Caizheng is talking, he can't help but secretly desert.
If this situation is placed in the private school of no matter which dynasty, it is seen by Mr. Teaching, if you don't reason, there is no other way, it is just a typing, it hurts, and the child will naturally remember it for a long time. After chattering for a long time, you know, where do teenage children know what is wrong, Xu Zheng, Xu Jing, and Xu Ling listened drowsily, and they didn't take it to heart at all, but they didn't listen, but there was a person next to them who listened to it with relish, this person was Xu Caizheng's adopted son, Xu Shande.
