Seeing that the familiar people were put into coffins and buried in the loess without breath, one after another, far more terrible than death, Ma Du was extremely reluctant to hear such news, but he had to face it. m.

Puff puff...... Zhang Wuliu drove an open-top car to Ma Du, "Grandpa, get in the car!" ”

Although it is an open-top car, it is not a luxury car, at most it is a hand-held tractor grade in later generations, and there are no fewer failures, when Lao Zhu came to test ride it in person, Ma Du carried Lao Zhu into the Qinhuai River, fortunately there is no canopy, otherwise Lao Zhu would have burped.

Along the spacious and smooth cement road out of the dense forest directly into Zhuangzi, Zhang Wuda stepped on his feet, and the car stopped steadily in front of Yuan Jiuli's door.

Yuan Jiuli's door surrounded a lot of people in the Zhuangzi, seeing that Ma Guo came to say hello, Lao Cui said: "Grandpa's medical skills are superb, but you can save Mr. Yuan, if he has a good future, no one will write Spring Festival couplets for our Zhuangzi." ”

"Don't worry, if you can save your father, you will naturally save it!" Ma Du promised it, but half a year ago he knew that Yuan Jiuli didn't have much time, and it was not easy to hold on until now.

Before entering the door, Ma Du shouted with a smile: "Mr. Yuanshan, I have come to see you!" "The distant mountain is the name Yuan Jiuli gave himself, if anyone can call him like this, he will be happy for a long time.

When they entered the room, the two of them were helping Yuan Jiuli up from the bed, and Yuan Jiuli smiled and told his daughter to quickly move the stool for Ma Du.

Ma Du lifted his robe and sat down at the head of the bed, "Mr. Yuanshan has been red recently, and his face is good." ”

"Huh...... The old man does feel much better today. Yuan Jiuli stroked his beard and said to his daughter and son-in-law: "You two go out first, I have something to say to my grandfather alone." ”

Seeing the two of them going out, Yuan Jiuli began to rummage under the mat, and Ma Du joked: "Mr. is so mysterious, could it be that there is some good treasure to taste with me." ”

Yuan Jiuli took out a book, "Where is the treasure, a clumsy work and ask the grandfather for guidance, if it is eye-catching, please ask the grandfather to smile." ”

Ma Du reached out to take it, but when he saw the title of the book on the cover, he left the stool and took it with both hands, "Sir, this gift is very heavy." ”

"Huh...... With the fame and deeds of the grandfather, I am afraid that those who want to write a book for you are like crossing the river, and in the future, the historian will also write a big book, and it is not the turn of an unknown junior like Yuan to do it.

However, Yuan has an advantage that they don't have, that is, he can see it more clearly than when they are closer, so he made this book with a cheeky face, and his pen power is superficial, and he asked his grandfather to correct it. ”

"Sir is too modest, and allow me to read the great work." Madu opened it, looked at a few pages, and then closed it. Yuan Jiuli asked nervously, "Is it that Yuan wrote badly?" ”

"Mr. has praised me too much, I'm going to blush if I read it again, haha......"

"Huh...... Grandpa God and man have the ability to change the world to benefit countless Li people, and a useless sour Confucian like Yuan also benefited.

However, the grandfather knows that Yuan is a person, and he will never have any praise for the grandfather because of his personal feelings, and every word in this book can withstand the test. ”

"Mr. Yuanshan is in a well-known state, this book has been accepted by the public, and it will be all up to future generations to become famous."

"Thank you grandpa for giving the old man face, now I can go with peace of mind." Yuan Jiuli leaned against the head of the bed, and seemed to be drained of his essence all of a sudden.

"It's said that it's not rude, and I also have a gift for Mr., but it's not easy to carry, and Mr. Lao got up and walked with me."

The little turtle carried Yuan Jiuli into the car, Zhang Wuliu started the car with a crank handle, and Ma Du personally drove away from Zhuangzi to the academy, passing through the tall and gorgeous archway, the car stopped under a few green pines, and a red cloth wrapped in something was hidden in it.

Madu stretched out his finger and pointed, "That's my gift to my husband!" ”

The eyes of the dying who were sitting in the car immediately brightened, and he couldn't speak excitedly, "Could it be that it is, if it is ......"

The little turtle replied: "It is the statue that my brother erected for my father-in-law, and since my father-in-law was sick, my brother asked me to make it, but I haven't told you because my father-in-law's body is not easy to be happy and sad." ”

"Help me down, help me down!"

The little turtle helped Yuan Jiuli stumble to the statue, trembling his hand to remove the red cloth, just grabbed it and turned back to look at Ma Du, "Grandpa, this cloth shouldn't be a statue of someone else." ”

Ma Du smiled bitterly, "It's not someone else, it's Mr. Yuanshan." ”

Yuan Jiuli took the reassuring pill, then he reached out and slowly pulled off the red cloth, looking at the black shiny bust statue, Yuan Jiuli pounced on it all of a sudden, holding the statue and crying hesitantly The doll in the confinement month.

After crying, he touched it a little bit from top to bottom with his trembling hands, and compared his height with himself, and the little turtle said on the side: "The statue of my father-in-law is one inch taller than Mr. Fenglin." ”

Yuan Jiuli nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at the text below, this word is really not very good, but it is very familiar.

"I didn't ask for calligraphy to copy the article I wrote, I hope Mr. won't dislike it."

"It is the greatest blessing of Yuan's life to have his grandfather personally write an article, Yuan has only served as a lecturer in the academy for a few years, and his grandfather has treated him so favorably that Yuan cannot afford it."

"Sir is indeed just an ordinary lecturer, but you are the founder of the academy, at that time there was only one dilapidated temple, three or five dilapidated desks, and a dozen or so drooping children, but only you were the only gentleman who struggled to support it.

Just like I said in the inscription, without your ragged entrepreneurial foundation, there would be no today's academy, a stone statue, how can Mr. be it. ”

Yuan Jiuli squinted his eyes and looked at the words on the stone seat again, and said with a smile: "I am the founder, I am actually the founder of the academy!" He turned his head and looked at the academy again, and muttered, "In this heaven and earth, I really don't want to go......"

As soon as he finished speaking, he fell on the statue with a crooked body, and the little turtle hurriedly went to help, but Yuan Jiuli didn't react at all, Zhang Wuliu on the side stretched out his hand to test his snort, and sighed: "Mr. Yuan is gone." ”

Ma Du took the blanket from the car and covered Yuan Jiuli's body, "Five or six go and give an order, ring the bell and stop class, so that the students can come to see Mr. Yuan off!" After he finished speaking, he waved at Yuan Jiuli, and then turned around with his hands behind his back.

A stretcher was carried in front of Yuan Sheng, Yuan Sheng trembled and took a deep breath and raised his head high, he didn't dare to look at it, because he knew what was under the white cloth.

Xiao Huang smiled and said: "Master, your precious son's body is here, but the skin and body are separated, and not putting Ling Lang's skin and grass in the land temple is the emperor's last grace to you." ”

"Thank Emperor Longen!" Yuan Sheng knelt on the ground and kowtowed, but his eyes were still avoiding the stretcher, and he got up from the ground and ordered: "Xiao Huang, go get me a cart and a horse, and then go to Shoucai to make a good cedar coffin." ”

Xiao Huang stretched out his hand in front of Yuan Sheng, "Silver! ”

Yuan Sheng glared and asked, "Didn't you take all the goods I left in the palace?" ”

Xiao Huang smiled and said: "I did take it, but those goods are all Lao Tzu's filial piety to you over the years, and now they are just returned to their original owners." ”

"You ......" Yuansheng stretched out and was about to scold, Xiao Huang slapped him in the face, Rao is Yuansheng once practiced kung fu and was beaten to stagger.

"Master, don't hate me, I'm just giving you back the one you beat me back to you. Dare to stare at me, don't forget that you are just a grass citizen now, and I am standing next to the emperor! After he finished speaking, he slapped Yuansheng again.

Yuan Sheng spat out a mouthful of blood, "How can I hate you, I only hate myself for having no eyes, and I used to think that you were honest and honest, so you followed me to serve by the emperor's side." ”

"If I hadn't been stupid, I'm afraid I would have ended up like Yun Qi a long time ago!" Xiao Huang glanced at the eunuchs on the left and right, "Give me a hard beating, get back all the sins I have suffered under him all these years, and I don't need his life, just abolish one of his legs." ”

Looking at the few eunuchs who came up, Yuan Sheng sneered, "It's really ruthless, you seem to have forgotten that there is a big handle in my hands." ”

Xiao Huang's skin tightened, his eyes gurgled wildly, and he wondered what handle was in Yuansheng's hand.

"Don't guess, I don't want a coffin, get me a carriage, and I'll give you back your descendants. What are you doing in a daze, do you want to be a eunuch in the next life without a corpse! Xiao Huang remember, this is the last thing I can teach you! ”
