Chapter 1229: Zhu Niang's Apprenticeship (I)
Zhao Deyan has only been in Chang'an for a long time, even if he is capable, it is impossible to rectify the Feinu Division so quickly, right? So when Li Xiu heard that the other party was leaving Chang'an for Gaochang, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression.
"The rectification of the Feinu Division is not something that can be completed overnight, during this time, a few big moths were pulled out from the division, but General Ma has been away from the Feinu Division for too long, and there must be more small moths in the local Feinu Division, which will take time, but during this time, His Majesty is anxious to set his sights on the Western Regions, and our Feinu Division must also make some achievements now, so I decided to go to the Western Regions in person, but it will not be too long, and I will come back in half a year at most." Zhao Deyan opened his mouth to explain at this time.
"This time it's also hard work, I took over the Feinu Division again, although His Majesty doesn't have any big requirements for me, but I also want to make some achievements in a short period of time, and the Western Regions is the best opportunity, so he wants to go to the Western Regions in person, arrange the things over there and come back." Ma Ye also said with emotion at this time, sometimes it is not good for people to be dissatisfied, although he can still grasp the general direction of Feinusi, but most of the specific things are done by Zhao Deyan.
"So that's the case, since Brother Deyan is going to Gaochang, then I will write a letter to Su Dingfang and ask him to provide you with some convenience as much as possible!" Li Xiu also nodded when he heard this, and then said again, Gao Chang is now Su Dingfang's final say, and with his help, Zhao Deyan will do things more smoothly.
"Haha~, what I'm waiting for is this sentence from the donkey, but before I leave Chang'an, there's something I want to ask the donkey for a favor!" Zhao Deyan also laughed when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then spoke again.
"What are you still polite to me, just say something!" Li Xiu saw Zhao Deyan so polite, and he also smiled at the moment, although he and Zhao Deyan have not seen each other for many years, their friendship is deeper than that of ordinary friends, so as long as Zhao Deyan has something, he will definitely help.
"This ......" I saw Zhao Deyan hesitate at this time, and then said a little embarrassed, "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that you also know that I have a pair of children, the eldest is seven years old, and the younger one is more than three years old, and they are all of the age of studying, although the family also invited them to Mr., but I always feel uneasy, and when it comes to educating children, I'm afraid no one can compare with the horse, so I want to ask the horse to accept my two children as disciples!" ”
"Hahahaha~, what else should I do, I just wanted to send students to me, no problem, I've always wanted to meet your children, but unfortunately you're too busy during this time to see people all day, and I can't let you take them here." Li Xiu also laughed out loud at the moment and said, for Zhao Deyan's children, he really wanted to see them, because when he used to correspond, Zhao Deyan often used large words to introduce the affairs of his children, which can be seen that he has deep feelings for his children.
Seeing Li Xiu agree, Zhao Deyan couldn't help but show a happy expression and said: "Thank you, in fact, I have always wanted to bring my children to the house, but I have no time during this time, and secondly, my wife and grandmother have not seen each other for many years, and they have been staying there during this time, and even I sometimes can't see the children at night." ”
When it came to his children, Zhao Deyan was also very interested, and he chatted with Li Xiu about his children, Ma Ye now has grandchildren, and the older ones are also studying here in Li Xiu, so Li Xiu will naturally not shirk this.
Early the next morning, Zhao Deyan took his wife and children to the door in person, and also prepared an apprenticeship ceremony, the Yang family was naturally entertained by Princess Pingyang, and Zhao Deyan took his children to the hall, ready to bow to Li Xiu.
However, before the apprenticeship began, I saw Zhao Deyan's eldest daughter Zhu Niang suddenly said to Li Xiu: "Uncle Li, I heard that my father often mentions you, and he also praises you as the smartest person in the world, so can I ask you a few questions?" ”
"Zhu Niang, don't mess around!" Hearing his daughter's words, Zhao Deyan couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly reprimanded him at the moment, but then he suddenly remembered that when he first came to the road, Zhu Niang said that he wanted to take a test for Li Xiu, if Li Xiu couldn't meet her requirements, she wouldn't be apprenticed, originally he thought it was just his daughter's joke, and he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't expect that she really wanted to take Li Xiu at this time.
"Haha~, Brother Deyan doesn't have to stop it, it's actually a good thing that the child has his own questions, which shows that she likes to think, and for the child who likes to think, we also need to encourage more!" Li Xiu laughed loudly at this time, and then turned his head and said to Zhu Niang, "Zhu Niang, if you have any questions, just ask, but I don't dare to guarantee that I can answer them." ”
Seeing Li Xiu's attitude so kind, this made Zhu Niang's resistance to Li Xiu much smaller, and she looked at her father at the moment, and finally spoke: "Uncle Qiyu, Zhu Niang was learning "The Female Commandment" some time ago, but the more she learned, the more she felt wrong, why did women be in the lower position everywhere in the female commandments, and men in the upper position, could it be said that women are inherently inferior to men?" ”
"Nonsense, how can you have such a rebellious idea at such a young age!" As soon as Zhu Niang's words fell, I saw Zhao Deyan speak again and angrily reprimanded, because Zhu Niang's problem has touched the most basic ethics and morals in this society, even if it comes from the mouth of a girl, it still cannot be tolerated by the world.
However, Li Xiu couldn't help but show a surprised expression when he heard Zhu Niang's words, he didn't expect a little girl to have such an idea, but it is not strange to think about it carefully, because it is precisely because Zhu Niang is young, she is less affected by secular ethics, and she is smart, so she feels that the social rules of male superiority and inferiority are abnormal and unfair.
"Brother Deyan, don't scold Zhu Niang, to have such an idea is enough to show that Zhu Niang is very smart, and since you want to send her to me to study, then I will also talk to the front, Zhu Niang will not only learn some common sense from me, but also may develop some different personalities from ordinary women, you must also be mentally prepared!" When Li Xiu said the end, he also had a solemn expression on his face.
Li Xiu's thoughts are incompatible with this era, even if he carefully disguises himself to make himself look comfortable in this era, but he has never changed inside, and the students he taught are naturally different from him under his influence, especially girls, such as Qi Niang, Hate Er, Wan Niang, Ming Kong, etc., each of them is not a traditional woman, which must be made clear with Zhao Deyan first.
