Chapter 4 Door-to-door visits
The round head carefully looked at Li Xiangzhi a few times, and suddenly said, "You are Li Xianggong?" β
"No, my name is Lee Sang-zhi!"
"Ah, that's it, the little maid has seen you, you are Li Xianggong. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"No, my name is Lee Sang-zhi!" Li Xiangzhi corrected.
"You are Li Yi and Li Xianggong!" The handmaid is right.
"Ahh Yes, yes, yes! I'm Li Yi. β
"Bang!" The door closed in an instant, leaving Li Xiangzhi stunned on the spot.
"I'll go! What do you mean? Don't even let the door in? How can this rub rice? Li Xiangzhi scratched his head.
Just as Li Xiangzhi hesitated, the door opened again, and it was still the round-faced little girl who claimed to be a servant.
"Li Xianggong, the master is waiting for you in the side hall."
Li Xiangzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said secretly: "It's good to let people in." β
Li Xiangzhi said to the maid: "What do you call the girl?" β
"The servant is like jade." Ruyu didn't have any good or bad feelings about Li Xiangzhi, she was very attentive, but she kept looking at Li Xiangzhi.
"Fortunately, it's not called Ruhua......" Li Xiangzhi thought about it, pointed to the basket in his hand, and said to Ruyu embarrassedly: "Thank you......"
Ruyu glanced at the basket, playfully stuck out her tongue, hurriedly took the basket and turned around and ran away.
Li Xiangzhi walked through the small courtyard in about ten steps and came to the side hall, only to see a forty-year-old Confucian student sitting in front of the hall, neatly dressed, holding a scroll in his hand and carefully tasting, so that Li Xiangzhi's first feeling was that he was a beautiful man.
Li Xiangzhi said secretly: "Generally, girls inherit their fathers, alas? My daughter-in-law, whom I have never met, must be on par with your father. β
"Uh...... Uh...... "Li Xiangzhi is in trouble on top of the title: how to call it." Father-in-law? Ahh That's too distant. Right, right! Modern people see people as uncles and aunts, and ancient people should be uncles and aunts.
"Ahem, Uncle Su is on top, and my little nephew Li Yi has seen the ceremony!"
Uncle Su Tong gently put down the scroll, turned his head to look at Li Xiangzhi calmly, and stared at Li Xiangzhi for a moment, but the focus in his eyes was not on Li Xiangzhi, as if he was thinking about something.
I don't know what Uncle Su Tong means, which makes Li Xiang's heart frightened, and he can only barely maintain a kind smile.
"Sit down!"
"Huh~" Li Xiangzhi estimated that it took half a minute, which was too depressing for Li Xiangzhi.
"Thank you, uncle!"
At this time, the maidservant Ruyu came in with tea, pulled her head, and brought the tea in front of Li Xiangzhi without smiling or becoming.
"Lee Sang-gong, please use tea!"
"Thank you!"
After Ruyu withdrew, Uncle Su Tong said slowly: "How is your body?" β
"Thank you uncle for your concern, it's much better."
"I also visited you while you were on your bed." Uncle Su Tong was stunned and said, "Soul loss disease? β
"Yes!"
Uncle Su Tong picked up the teacup and slammed it, and Yun Danfeng said lightly: "I once heard that there is an old student in Hangzhou, who is forty years old and has a very interesting style of poetry and painting, but a few years ago, he went on a trip and fell off the cliff, and as a result, he got this soulless disease, which is similar to you." β
When Li Xiangzhi heard this, he immediately realized what Uncle Su Tong was going to tell him, and asked, "Then what happened to this person now?" β
"The mouth cannot poetry, and the hand cannot read. In less than two years, he lost his family's savings, and now he is guarding a few acres of land at home and farming. Uncle Su Tong blew the tea and said lightly.
Li Xiangyi was stunned, and immediately came to his senses, this Uncle Su Tong was worried that after he became ill, the name of this talent would not be worthy of his name. That's it for a lifetime. But Li Xiangzhi knows that although he has amnesia, some spontaneous things in the life of the owner of this body still exist, such as poetry and songs, often when he sees a certain scene and a certain feeling, he will spontaneously connect with some introductions in the book, but! After all, it is a vague memory, and it is impossible to become the real material on the road to fame.
In other words, the current Li Xiangzhi is estimated to be abolished in the imperial examination of poetry and books.
Li Xiangzhi understood what Uncle Su Tong meant, he was interested in Li Xiangzhi's future, so he chose him as his son-in-law, and now this situation is ......
Li Xiangzhi is also an interesting person, after all, this experience is not worth mentioning compared to the sadness of his past and present lives, and he is not angry. Li Xiangzhi also knew that since the Ming Dynasty had promised a family affair and there was no peace talks, it was not allowed to withdraw from the marriage unilaterally, especially the consequences of the woman's withdrawal from the marriage were more serious, otherwise it would be so troublesome that the government would first play the board and then discuss the divorce compensation regardless of the reason.
Li Xiangzhi only paused slightly, then got up and said, "Uncle Su is worried about things, but there are also worries. Li Yi understood that Li Yi would return the marriage letter as soon as he returned home, and would never dwell on the matter. β
Uncle Su Tong suddenly frowned, and said angrily: "Bastard boy, you dare to insult my reputation!" β
Li Xiangzhi was taken aback, and said sneeringly: "What does uncle mean?" β
"Humph! Even if you're an idiot, how can I, Uncle Su Tong, care? Without faith, a man does not stand. How could my Uncle Su Tong do such a noble and contemptible thing? β
The corners of Li Xiangzhi's face twitched, and he said secretly: "I'm not an idiot, right?" β
Uncle Su Tong was really annoyed, but he was not annoyed by Li Xiangzhi's words, but he was annoyed that he was unlucky, but a good son-in-law became like this, he ran to the funeral at a young age, and delayed his studies for three years in vain. These hearts were completely cold. But at least he hasn't become stupid, and his daughter can still live a good life when she marries. He endured this breath, after all, it is not good to lose trust in the reputation of others.
After Uncle Su Tong calmed down, he asked, "Did the county honor ever give you a watch?" β
"Well...... Forgot! β
Uncle Su Tong shook his head helplessly and said, "Forget it......"
"I've got one for myself, though."
Uncle Su Tong was stunned and said, "What? Take it yourself? β
"Yes, Xiangzhi, Li Xiangzhi, the little nephew thinks it's not bad."
"Xiangzhi?" Uncle Su Tong muttered: "'As for the darkness and confusion and there is nothing to match, it cannot be reached! 'Phase! Uncle Su Tong glanced at Li Xiangyi with a complicated face, and said angrily: "It's okay!" β
Li Xiangzhi pondered: "What does this mean?" It turns out that my name still has such a connotation. β
This sentence comes from Wang Anshi's words, and the whole sentence is 'There is ambition and strength, but not slack, as for the darkness and confusion and nothing to match, it can not be reached!' It means: 'If he has the will and strength, he will not blindly obey others and slack off, and he will not be able to reach a deep, dim and confusing place without external objects to assist him.' Although this sentence is recorded in Wang Anshi's travelogue, the same truth can be derived, as Tong Su Tongshu just alluded to, since Li Xiangzhi's imperial examination is slim, but life does not have to be hanged on the road of the imperial examination, there are other ways to go.
"Sir! Madame asked if she would leave Lee Sang-gong for lunch? Ruyu didn't know when she came to say.
When Li Xiangyi heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, and his stomach was already making trouble.
Uncle Su Tong immediately poured cold water and said: "What to stay, it's really confused!" If you haven't married yet, what will you keep? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at! β
Li Xiangzhi's face pulled and said, "That...... The little nephew went back first, and came to visit another day. β
"Wait!"
Under the expectant gaze of Li Xiangzhi, Uncle Su Tong pulled out a string of copper plates and threw them to Li Xiangzhi, there were two or three hundred, Li Xiangzhi almost had an evil star in his eyes, shameful, the first huge sum of money in this world.
"Go back and buy a few decent clothes, buy some paper and ink, review your homework, and I'll study your knowledge when I see you next time."
When Li Xiangyi heard the second half of the sentence, his heart suddenly turned cold and blurted out: "I'll go!" β
After Li Xiangzhi pretended to excuse himself for a while, he left the Su family with money in his hand.
As soon as Li Xiang walked away, a figure in a green shirt immediately flashed outside.
Uncle Su Tong said slightly apologetically: "Yue'er, it's my father's clumsiness, are you annoyed with my father?" β
The person who came was Li Xiangzhi's fiancΓ©e Su Mingyue, who was tall and thin, and her thin figure made me feel pitiful.
"Daddy, what's that? This is the cause of heaven, Yue'er should only obey it, and besides, Li Xianggong is also a showman, isn't his father also a showman when he is middle-aged? Su Mingyue smiled skillfully.
Uncle Su Tong's face suddenly turned red, and he reprimanded: "Don't tease your father." β
Su Mingyue twisted and said: "Actually, as long as Li Xianggong is as safe and stable as a father in the future, my daughter will no longer ask for anything." β
"Alas! I know that you have been well-behaved since you were a child, and everything goes well, and according to your nature, I am afraid that you will suffer losses in the future. β
"It's a blessing to suffer, okay, it's time to eat!" Su Mingyue's eyes froze when she said this, and she must have said it not easily.
