PS: I'm really sorry, there's something going on today, I'm coming back late, in order to express the old fish's apology, I also responded to the request of the book friend 'Angel Flying in Hell', and added a new chapter today! In addition, ask for tickets and collections!

As soon as the words outside, the cotton curtain at the door of the shed was opened, and then a long-faced young man walked in, bowed to Wang Lun and said, "Little nephew Shenzhong to meet Wang Shibo!" ”

The person who came in was none other than Xu Shenzhong, who had previously received a way from Zhou Chong to make the wealthy businessmen in Songjiang Mansion donate again. As a result, after he returned home and told his father, Xu Zhifu was also overjoyed, and also thought that this method was very feasible, after two days of preparation, today it will finally be officially implemented, and the reason why he came to see Wang Lun is also to smoothly implement Zhouzhong's method.

Wang Lun saw that the person who came in was Xu Shenzhong, and he smiled enthusiastically at the moment: "In such a cold weather, why do you have time to come to me?" Come and sit down, don't catch a cold! ”

Wang Lun and Xu Zhifu are close friends, and Xu Shenzhong also learned some medical skills from Wang Lun when he was a child, so although the two are not nominal masters and apprentices, their relationship is actually similar to that of master and apprentice.

"Hehe, the little nephew came to inform Wang Shibo of something on his father's order this time!" Xu Shenzhong grew up under the watchful eyes of Wang Lun, and he was very open in front of him, and naturally he didn't have too many scruples when he spoke. But then he asked again, "By the way, just now the little nephew heard Wang Shibo outside the door that you were losing your temper, what's the matter, does anyone dare to make you angry?" ”

Hearing Xu Shenzhong ask about what he was angry about just now, Wang Lun couldn't help but say angrily: "Hmph, it's not my good son-in-law Zhou Chong, something happened to his family some time ago, and now it's almost resolved, but I don't know how to visit my house and talk about the situation at home, so that I can rest assured, but so far, I haven't been there once, how can I not be angry?" ”

"Zhou ...... Circumference? Xu Shenzhong was stunned when he heard this, "Wang Shibo, are you talking about Zhou Zhong Zhou Wenda, who wrote Journey to the West?" ”

"Humph! Except for that bastard kid who doesn't do his job, who would be bored to write that kind of weird talk? I saw Wang Lun snort coldly, although he also liked Journey to the West, but he didn't want to show it in front of his juniors, so as not to lose his identity as an elder. In addition, he heard that even Xu Shenzhong, who had just come to Songjiang, had heard of Zhou Chong's name, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, but his face didn't show half of it.

Hearing that Zhou Chong turned out to be Wang Lun's son-in-law, Xu Shenzhong also really felt that this world was too small, and at the same time, he secretly felt sorry for his cousin Xie Lingyun, when he saw Zhou Chong and Xie Lingyun standing together, he couldn't help but think about matching them, but unfortunately now it seems impossible.

Speaking of which, although Xu Shenzhong and Wang Lun are the same master and apprentice, he doesn't know that it is understandable that Wang Lun's daughter is engaged to Zhou Chong, because Wang Lun has a total of six daughters, of which the youngest daughter who is engaged to Zhou Chong is nearly ten years younger than Xu Shenjuni, and the two have never met at all, and when this Miss Wang and Zhou Chong got engaged, Xu Shenzhong had already gone to Suzhou to study, so he didn't know about Lu Dao at all.

Xu Shenzhong quickly recovered after being surprised, and saw that Wang Lun seemed to be really angry with Zhou Chong, he hurriedly smiled and explained for Zhou Chong: "Wang Shibo, you are wrong to blame Wenda, although I have known Wenda for a short time, he is definitely not the kind of person who does not know the number of manners, and he is too busy during this time, I am afraid that even if he wants to visit you, it will be difficult to find time!" ”

"Hmph, what does he have to do, is it possible that someone will force him to write that Journey to the West?" Wang Lun was still a little angry.

"Hehe, Wang Shibo, you really guessed right this time, someone did force him to write Journey to the West, and the little nephew is one of them!" Xu Shenzhong said, he wanted to copy the Journey to the West and give it to the teacher as a birthday gift, and then because of lack of time, Zhou Zhong and Zheng Jing helped him copy it, and later Xie Lingyun bought Journey to the West and asked Zhou Zhong to hand in the first half of the manuscript before the year.

"I see!" After listening to Xu Shenzhong's explanation, Wang Lun's anger towards Zhou Zhong had already disappeared for most of the time, but he still said stubbornly, "No matter how busy you are, it won't take much time to take time to go to my house once, because he is also a scholar, none of his five brothers-in-law don't know etiquette like him!" ”

"Yes, yes~, Wenda didn't go to visit Wang Shibo, it's really rude, the next time I see him, I will definitely teach him a good lesson on behalf of Wang Shibo!" Xu Shenzhong couldn't see that Wang Lun's anger had disappeared, but in order to take care of the old man's face, he could only follow Wang Lun's words.

"By the way, Wang Shibo, you may not know what to do, Wenda has done my father a great favor this time, and the reason why I came to you today is because of Wenda." Xu Shenzhong finally remembered the purpose of coming to Wang Lun today, and hurriedly spoke.

"Oh, Zhou Chong, he's just a little showman, how can he help your father?" Wang Lun said in surprise again.

"Wang Shibo, don't worry, this matter is a little troublesome to explain, but with your old experience in officialdom, as long as you listen to the few words that my father asked me to bring you, you will definitely understand what is going on immediately!" When Xu Shenzhong said these words, a smile very similar to Zhou Chong's appeared on his face.

"What does your father have to say to me?" After hearing this, Wang Lun became more and more incomprehensible.

"Hehe, in fact, my father just wants to inform you that in order to commend the support of the people of Songjiang for this relief disaster, especially many people have generously donated money, so the government decided to set up a merit monument outside the north gate, and write the name, place of origin, address, and donation amount of the donor, so as to pass it on to future generations, and wait for thousands of years later, so that everyone can remember their merits!" When Xu Shenzhong said the word merit, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Ha Lu Ha~" Wang Lun was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he burst into laughter, and the beard on his chin trembled with his laughter, which looked particularly interesting.

I saw Wang Lun laughing for a while, and finally stopped, gasped and asked, "Be careful...... Caution, this ...... This method is really lacking in virtue, if you really erect this merit monument, I am afraid that your father will be scolded to death by those rich and unkind guys! Haha

If this stele is really erected, then the names of all donors and the amount of donations will be engraved on it, the Li family, the Xie family and the Wang family and other families, at least donated a few hundred taels of silver, but the rest of the people only donated dozens of taels or even a few taels, the same is the rich family of Songjiang Mansion, those who donate too little are simply faceless.

In addition, what is even more lacking in virtue is that Zhou Zhong even proposed to engrave the donor's place of origin and address, so that those who donate more can naturally live for generations, and even their children and grandchildren will feel that their faces are bright. But for those who donate too little, not only will they be ashamed, but they may even be ridiculed by future generations, which is even worse than killing them.

However, Wang Lun, who was hilarious, quickly felt that something was wrong, because Xu Shenzhong said just now that Zhou Chong had done his father a big favor, could it be that this so-called 'big favor' was ......

Thinking of this, Wang Lun finally came to his senses, and his laughter stopped abruptly: "Wait, Shenzhong, you won't tell me that the method of establishing a meritorious monument was thought up by Zhou Chong, right?" ”

"Wang Shibo, although I also feel incredible, this method is indeed thought up by Wenda." Xu Shenzhong said, and told them what they had said when they met at Zhou Chong's house that day, as well as how Zhou Chong proposed this method after the last day.

I saw that Wang Lun also showed an incredible expression after hearing this, in his impression, Zhou Chong was actually a young man who only knew how to read, and his personality was relatively old-fashioned, and sometimes he even seemed more wooden, so no matter what, Wang Lun couldn't believe that Zhou Chong would come up with such a way to lack morality?

"It's really strange, could it be that Zhou Chong used to be stupid in front of me? How could he possibly come up with such a solution? Wang Lun muttered to himself after the most reluctance, this matter was seen by Xu Shenzhong with his own eyes, and it would definitely not be fake, but Wang Lun still couldn't believe it. This feeling is as if he watched a child grow up, and he always thought that the other party was a boy, but suddenly one day he found that the other party was a girl, and the contrast was too great!

"Wang Shibo, in fact, I don't think it's strange, Wenda can write a book like Journey to the West, although it is based on the theme of Zhiwei, but the book has a very thorough view of the world's human feelings, it can be seen that Wenda must also have a seven-trick exquisite heart, but he used to have no worries about food and clothing, and he was dedicated to studying, so he didn't have the opportunity to show it, and now his family has suffered a big change, which finally made Wenda show his extraordinary!" Xu Shenzhong helped Zhou Zhong explain at this time, although his explanation sounded a little incredible, but it could only be understood in this way.

Wang Lun also nodded after hearing this, he has been up and down in the Huan Sea for many years, and he has seen more people and experienced more things than Xu Shenzhong, knowing that some people and things in this world really can't be speculated with common sense, and his quasi-son-in-law Zhou Zhong may be a person who can't be speculated with common sense.

Don't want to! It's a big deal to let Zhou Chong go to Fuzhong afterwards, and see how he explains it then? Wang Lun, the most embarrassed queen, thought in his heart, of course, when Zhou Chong went, he must be asked to bring the rest of the Journey to the West manuscript, and the tenth chapter was written to Tang Taizong into the underworld, I don't know if Lu Dao can still return to Yang?

Thinking of Journey to the West, Wang Lun couldn't help but feel a little itchy in his heart, and he couldn't care about Zhou Chong's doubts anymore. Then he thought of the meritorious monument again, and couldn't help but laugh again, he now wanted to see what kind of expressions those rich and unkind guys in the city would show after receiving this news?
