When someone was talking outside the door, Meng Tianchu heard that it was Xu Wei's voice, and rushed Xu Wei to welcome him in.

Xu Wei shook the folding fan and walked in heartily, and when he saw so many people gathered in the hall, he smiled and said to Meng Tianchu: "In the morning, I saw a magpie falling in front of the room, and I didn't see anything good after waiting for a day, so I thought of Brother Meng Xian, because the magpie's head kept chirping on your side, so I came to take a look." ”

"Haha!" Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "Brother Xu can be called a half-immortal, and there are indeed happy events in the family." ”

Meng Tianchu then brought Meng Wenbo to Xu Wei: "I haven't seen Mr. Xu yet!" ”

"Mr. Xu!" Meng Wenbo politely bowed to Xu Wei.

Xu Wei saw that although the child in front of him was less than ten years old, he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, full of heaven, and bright eyes, so he couldn't help but like it, shook his folding fan and lowered his head and asked, "What's your name, how old are you this year?" Where do you live? Who is in the family? ”

Meng Wenbo answered one by one eloquently.

Xu Wei was very satisfied, and asked again: "Have you read any books?" ”

Meng Wenbo's face turned red, and he was embarrassed to speak for a long time.

Xu Wei said: "It's no wonder that the family is so poor, the family must have no money to let him, and it is a pity that such a good seedling has been delayed like this." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "Why don't you ask me what I think?" ”

When Xu Wei saw Meng Tianchu say this, he said, "Oh, then you can tell me what you think to let me hear it." ”

Meng Tianchu suddenly had a whim, if this child let Xu Wei teach. That's amazing, Xu Wei naturally doesn't know what his future will look like, but Meng Tianchu knows that all the ancients who have the word "famous" in the modern book are amazing characters, and don't say how bleak Xu Wei's later years are, at least now is the time for the spring breeze to be proud, and the most important thing is that Meng Tianchu feels that Xu Wei's character is very good. Meng Wenbo, this kid still needs such a genius to teach, so that he can get twice the result with half the effort.

Meng Tianchu said: "Brother Xu thinks Meng Wenbo is a talent that can be created? ”

Xu Wei said: "This Xu is not easy to say. There is a perimeter in front. At the age of three, he memorized a thousand words and wrote poems at the age of five, but later he still did nothing, but this child is indeed very smart and witty at first glance, which is rare. ”

Meng Tianchu said: "Brother Xu is a few years older than Meng, and today Meng opened his mouth to ask Brother Xu for something, hoping that the elder brother will fulfill the younger brother." ”

Xu Wei said: "Little brother doesn't mean that he wants to take Meng Wenbo..." and then pointed to himself.

Meng Tianchu nodded. Before Xu Wei could refuse, he saw that Meng Wenbo had already understood Meng Tianchu's meaning, and immediately knelt down for Xu Wei, and then shouted loudly: "Sir, please bow to the students." ”

Xu Wei laughed, pointed to Meng Wenbo on the ground, then looked at everyone, and then said, "I found the relationship by myself." What is this magpie called? It turned out that I was asking myself to find a little trouble! Hahaha"

Zuo Jiayin stepped forward with a smile and said, "There is such a smart student, isn't it just to let everyone know how powerful Xu Wei Xu Gongzi his husband is?" All show that the teacher produces a high apprentice. Meng Wenbo has already knelt down, could it be that you, a gentleman, still want to brush his sleeves away? ”

Xu Wei smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, after your Meng family is a sage, the man is the best among the people, and the woman is a woman who does not let her eyebrows, I Xu Wei admit that I can't say you, I just admit defeat." ”

Meng Tianchu naturally couldn't just do it, so he said: "If you admit defeat, you must have an attitude of admitting defeat!" ”

Xu Wei laughed a few times, and then said: "That's it, that's it, it's rare for Brother Meng Xian to look at it, so Xu Wei might as well be respectful." ”

When Meng Wenbo heard this, he looked at Meng Tianchu happily, and was about to kowtow again, but Xu Wei said: "Don't panic first, I still have a question that must be clarified." ”

Meng Tianchu said: "What questions? ”

Xu Wei said: "I don't seem to have seen Meng Wenbo before, who is Meng Wenbo from Meng Xian's brother?" I have some doubts about him when you care so much about him. ”

Meng Tianchu naturally didn't feel comfortable telling Xu Wei the truth in front of Meng Wenbo, so he blurted out and said, "Yes... It's my son. ”

Everyone was stunned, including Meng Wenbo.

Xu Wei's eyes were as wide as copper bells, he pointed at Meng Wenbo and then looked at Meng Tianchu, then turned to look at Meng Tianchu's four wives, and then said, "I... I'm really a little surprised, dare to ask Meng Wenbo is born to the lady of the virtuous brother? ”

When the four ladies heard this, they all lowered their heads embarrassedly, and Meng Tianchu said: "To be precise, it is my Meng Tianchu who has taken over the land, but because Meng Wenbo was born lonely and his father and mother are no longer alive, there is no difference between him and my own child." ”

Xu Wei also knew a rough idea when he heard Meng Tianchu say this, so he patted Meng Tianchu's shoulder and said with emotion: "It's rare that you have such an ancient way, Xu admires it, okay, I just saw everyone's expressions as soon as you said it, probably I learned this news with everyone, including Meng Wenbo, right?" ”

Meng Wenbo nodded immediately, with tears in his eyes, looking at Meng Tian's birth gratefully.

Xu Wei continued: "Then my apprenticeship ceremony should be placed in the back, now that Brother Meng Xian has a son, and Meng Wenbo has a new home, this is more important than anything else, this etiquette naturally can't be casual, it must be solemn." ”

Xia Fengyi also said: "What Gongzi Xu said is true. After speaking, he pulled Meng Wenbo up, wiped the tears from the corners of Meng Wenbo's eyes with his hand, and said softly: "Today is really a big day for our Meng family, and we should have a formal ceremony." ”

Seeing that everyone was serious, and it was not easy for him to stand aside and be cool, Wen Rou hurriedly stepped forward and said to Meng Wenbo cordially: "What the eldest lady said is that I will go and let the people prepare now." ”

After speaking, Wen Wen walked to the door, called a few servants and maids, and then went out to arrange.

Meng Tianchu said to Xia Fengyi, "Aren't you going out to have a look?" ”

Xia Fengyi smiled softly and said, "Trust her." ”

Less than a pillar of incense. The housekeeper came to say that the second lady was ready, and when everyone heard this, they hurriedly took Meng Wenbo and left

It was already completely dark, but the moon was very good tonight, and when everyone went into the courtyard, they found that the speed of gentleness was not only fast, but also full of things.

Lanterns were lit on the gazebo, on the trees, and under the eaves of the courtyard. In the center of the courtyard was placed an incense case. There are fruits and snacks on the table. There was also a chicken that had just been killed.

Six chairs were placed in front of the incense table, and a large futon was placed in front of the chairs.

Gently walked up to Meng Tianchu and said, "I just went to look through the imperial calendar by the way, who knew that today is actually a good day, so I made my own decision and wanted three joys to come to the door." ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he asked, "What are the three joys?" ”

Gentle and mysterious smile. said: "Yixi, naturally the husband is happy to have a noble son, although Meng Wenbo is not the husband's own child, but he is smart and clever to see that he will be a promising child in the future, and the second happiness is naturally Meng Wenbo not only has a smart and wise father today, but also recognizes a talented gentleman, these three joys are gentle and self-assertive." Cluck. I think that my husband and Mr. Xu hit it off at first sight, and they hated to see each other late, so I also wanted to take this opportunity. Let you marry Jinlan, I don't know what you mean? ”

Gently crackled and said a lot, and after finishing speaking, he looked at Meng Tianchu carefully, for fear that he would get angry or angry.

I saw Meng Tianchu laughing, then patted Xu Wei's shoulder vigorously and said, "What does Brother Xu think of my second wife's opinion?" ”

Xu Wei also said happily: "I have this intention, the second lady thought of it, and I just couldn't ask for it." ”

Wen Rou saw that everyone was very happy, so she secretly patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

Meng Tianchu said: "What do these six chairs mean?" ”

Wen Wen said a little embarrassedly: "You are Meng Wenbo's father, so aren't the four of us Meng Wenbo's mother?" Should he also worship us? ”

Meng Tianchu felt reasonable, motioned for everyone to sit down, and sat in the middle, Xia Fengyi on the left, gentle on the right, and the others sat down in turn.

Lao He pulled Meng Wenbo to the side of the futon, whispered a few words to Meng Wenbo, and then called two maids who were already waiting with tea trays on the side, and after preparing everything, Lao He walked to Meng Tianchu's side with a smile and said in a low voice: "Young master, do you think from today onwards, should you change your title?" There is already a young master in the family, we should call you master. ”

When Meng Tianchu heard this, he couldn't smile bitterly, where is there such a young man as himself, and then think about it, he doesn't have such a young father, he is only in his twenties, and he already has a ten-year-old son, alas, the master is the master.

Seeing Meng Tianchu nodding painfully, Lao He nodded happily in front of Meng Wenbo and said, "Young Master, you can start." ”

Meng Wenbo knelt on the futon carefully, put his hands on both sides of the futon, and first said respectfully: "Child Meng Wenbo, kowtow to my father, I hope that my father will strictly discipline the child in the future, and the child will remember his father's teachings, never disappoint his father's expectations, and be filial to his father." ”

At this time, the maid next to him smiled and helped Meng Wenbo up, handed a cup of tea to Meng Wenbo's hand, Meng Wenbo held the tea and carefully did it to Meng Tianchu's side, and the maid on the side hurriedly handed over a futon, and then helped Meng Wenbo kneel.

Meng Wenbo choked up and said: "Dad, the child brought you a cup of tea, thank you Dad for giving Wen... Meng Wenbo has the opportunity to regenerate, Meng Wenbo will use his life to honor his father and repay his father's nurturing grace. ”

Meng Tianchu nodded again and again, took the tea with both hands with a smile, took a sip, and kindly touched Meng Wenbo's little head. The maid took the tea bowl.

Meng Wenbo took another cup of new tea from the maid's hand, walked to Xia Fengyi's side, and knelt on the futon that the maid had already prepared.

Xia Fengyi still has no children, remembering that someone is going to call her mother in the future, she can't help but burst into tears, Meng Wenbo hasn't spoken yet, Xia Fengyi has already picked up the tea, took a sip gently, and then handed the tea to the maid, stretched out her hands, gently stroked Meng Wenbo's head lovingly, and said: "Child, I am the eldest lady of the Meng family, now my husband is your father, I am naturally your mother, and I will be Meng Wenbo's mother in the future, don't call me my mother, call me my mother directly, I will be happier, you know?" Come, Meng Wenbo, let my mother hug you. ”

As soon as Meng Wenbo heard the title of "mother", he remembered that his own mother also loved him so much, he couldn't help crying, stood up and threw himself into Xia Fengyi's arms.

Xia Fengyi's tears flowed down, hugging him and comforting him softly, many of the people present couldn't help but turn their backs and secretly wipe their tears.

Seeing this, Meng Tianchu said with a smile: "It's a good day, don't be so sad, hurry up and let the child see his second mother, third mother, and fourth mother." ”

Xia Fengyi let go of Meng Wenbo, carefully wiped away Meng Wenbo's tears, and said, "Go, go and serve tea to your second mother, third mother, and fourth mother." ”

Meng Wenbo nodded obediently, and then according to the maid's prompts, he gave tea to Wen Wen, Zuo Jiayin, and Feiyan one by one.

After Meng Wenbo finished toasting Meng Tianchu and the four ladies and grandmothers, Xia Fengyi asked Meng Wenbo to bring a chair and let him sit between himself and Meng Tianchu.

Lao He said: "Now carry out the ceremony of worshipping the master and Mr. Xu." ”

Meng Tianchu and Xu Wei stood up and walked to the incense case, and the subordinates on the side handed three pillars of incense to each of them, and the two knelt down together.

Xu Wei first swore to the Heavenly Alliance: "Life is a lifetime. In the autumn of grass and trees, Xu Wei got this brother. There is no survival in this life, and the yellow sky and the earth are learned! ”

Meng Tianchu also said it again.

The two bowed three times, offered incense together, and then put their hands together and laughed with their hands in the sky.
