Chapter 0084: Rich Young Master
"It's on the list, it's on the list! Young Master Woo won the show, won the show!"
"The second room is amazing! This generation has three shows. ”
"Blue is better than blue. You see, sooner or later, one door and three shows will become a three-jinshi, and then the second master will be given an official title by the imperial court because of the competition of his sons. ”
"Yes, yes, yes."
Overnight, Shen Jiamo's reputation rose sharply with the fame of his young son, and people's praise began to increase again, and even his missing daughter seemed to have become evidence of his moral benchmark.
Of course, the big guy is still secretive about the 'death' of the second lady.
In contrast, the morale of the third room is inevitably low, and no matter where you go, you will be ridiculed, and you will hear sarcasms such as "a dignified young master, not even a child", "the children of the Shen family, only the fifth child is the most unbearable".
Shen Kan didn't care about this, but his friends always encouraged him with the words "three years without a bang, a blockbuster".
As the drought continued, the farmers became more and more restless, and the village began to discuss a ritual to pray for rain.
In the afternoon, Shen Kan was observing the sky outside the door, hoping that there would be a cumulonimbus cloud floating in the sky.
I didn't notice that Shen Jiamo came back with Shen Yu outside, and when he saw him standing there, Shen Jiamo snorted coldly: "If you don't do your job, why don't you go in and think about it behind closed doors."
Shen Kan didn't speak, turned around and walked in, Shen Kuan in his sight was dressed in a new scribe's robe, with a proud look on his face, his thin body, and wide long clothes, giving him a sense of humor.
"At the end of the day, it's jealousy." Shen Kan smiled bitterly as he walked.
It turned out that for many days, there was an endless stream of matchmakers who came to inquire about the birthdays of the children of the Shen family, including people who came to inquire about Shen Qi, only Shen Kan was not cared for, and there was no one who even asked him casually.
Every day when the brothers met, Shen Qi looked at him with a hint of contempt, which was very uncomfortable.
That's it, Shen Kan is most worried about the condition of the second wife Gan and the third brother and the fourth brother.
The brothers have changed a lot recently, although they didn't dare to run in front of their father to question Shen Peiwei's whereabouts, they were undoubtedly hit hard.
After Shen Wei came back, he only stayed for one day, secretly entrusted his mother to the eldest wife, and moved to Fucheng alone early the next morning.
Two days later, Shen Zuo also left for Gui'an County to study literature under Mr. Mao Kun. Before leaving, Shen Ju said a lot to Shen Kan.
In the blink of an eye, Jiao Niang's mother and son became the masters of the second room, but fortunately it was Wuxing instead of Jinling.
On June 14, an auspicious day of the zodiac, a middle-aged man from another village led a half-grown child, brought two messengers, and carried a suitcase and luggage to school together.
At the entrance of the village, there was a large area of tall houses, flags stood on the playground, and the sound of reading came from there in the wind.
When I got closer, there was a plaque on it, and the words "Wuxing School" were written in a big book.
The middle-aged man continued to walk forward with his son, and Wang Qianzhai had already greeted him.
The middle-aged man took a step forward and arched his hand: "How can I let Mr. come out to greet me, I really dare not be."
The half-grown child hurriedly bowed to the teacher, and Wang Qianzhai saw that he was wearing a bean green lake crepe silk robe, with a piece of green agate on his head, and a pale cyan embroidered silk belt around his waist, which floated out for a long time.
The appearance is clear-eyed and beautiful, and the fourteen or fifteen-year-old brother has a handsome atmosphere because of his rich family.
Mr. Qianzhai's face couldn't help but turn up, because even if his own disciples are like Shen Kan and others, they wear cloth clothes every day, and now that such a rich child is here, I am afraid that it will bring bad to his style of study.
At this time, the disciples in the classroom were all snooping under the window, and in the first two days, they heard that a young master from the city was coming, and at this time, the young master came, of course, he had to take a look.
Shen Kan sat inside in a daze, suddenly heard them laughing in a low voice, and looked out strangely, and saw that the young master with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes couldn't help blushing because he attracted everyone's attention.
People have been accustomed to being rich and noble in the city since childhood, and most of them wear like this every day, which is particularly eye-catching when they come to the countryside.
"Like a woman, with fine skin and tender meat, but not as good-looking as our fifth brother."
"The fifth brother has been tanned like black charcoal these days, and his complexion is whiter, compared to it."
Shen Kan couldn't help laughing, and said, "Come back and sit down."
Soon Mr. Qianzhai walked in with the father and son, and the young master took a look at the environment in the room, and there was a large square table on the right, two bookshelves at the back, and a black Taishi chair in the front, which was naturally the teacher's seat.
There were desks on the opposite side, and students aged eleven, twelve, and even fifteen or sixteen years old sat on the seats, and everyone stood up when they saw the guests arrive.
It seemed that Mr. Qianzhai was not at ease with him, so he deliberately pointed to the side of the master's seat and motioned for the young master to sit there.
Seeing that he was going to sit at the same table with Mr., the young master secretly complained in his heart.
At that moment, Mr. Qianzhai instructed a disciple to light incense and candles in front of Confucius's holy seat, and the young master did not need to be instructed by others, he went to worship Confucius, and invited Mr. to take a seat, bowed four times, and then made a bow to the students.
Others don't know the details of the young master, but Shen Kan knows some, the young master's surname is Yao, his father is an official who came to Suzhou to perform his duties, I heard that his name is Yao Qiuwen, and his hometown is in the capital.
I don't know how Yao Qiuwen found out that the descendants of the poor pavilion were teaching in Shenjia Village, so he ignored the large and small academies and government-run schools in Suzhou, and had to send his son here to study.
I went all the way to the countryside to study, so I wanted to eat and live here. Originally, Mr. Qianzhai was not very happy, but because his grandfather was an official in the same dynasty as the previous generation of the Yao family, he had some friendship, so he reluctantly agreed because he was not good at refusing.
In addition, it seems that there will be a student in a few days, who is also a rich boy in the city.
At this time, Mr. Qianzhai asked Young Master Yao what books he read and what he could do with his pen, and after a brief understanding, he nodded and said to Yao Qiuwen: "I have a total of twenty-two students here, divided into three batches of teaching. The literature is smoother, I already know how to read, and I usually let them be in the next room; Those who read better, such as Shen Kan and Shen Xiangdao of the Shen family, and Zhou Pu of the Zhou family, let them work alone; If you can't work on your own, set up a seat in this room. Since Ling Lang can read and write by himself, and he can't go home at night, there is still a small room behind him that is empty, so let him live there. ”
Shen Kan noticed that Young Master Yao seemed relieved when he heard this, probably worried about living in the same room with others.
"It's up to the gentleman." Yao Qiuwen was very polite.
Mr. Qianzhai said, "Daogu, you can lead him over."
"Yes." Shen Kan stood up.
"Who is this?" Yao Qiuwen asked.
"Children of the Shen family, Shen Kan Shen Daogu." Mr. Qianzhai explained.
"Oh." Yao Qiuwen smiled and nodded, "The children of the big clan are really good." ”
At the moment, he didn't continue to talk about it, and left.
Shen Kan took Young Master Yao and asked Dazhu to take the luggage and come to a small courtyard at the back.
"It's good here, look." Shen Kan pointed to the courtyard door, "This is located in front of Mr.'s residence, the door opens to the right, just to avoid Mr.'s ears and eyes, and the scenery is good, I also like to read quietly here." ”
Young Master Yao walked into the room and took a closer look, the room had two windows, which was very transparent. One of the windows faced a patio with a stone balustrade, and in the balustrade was a large camphor tree, the trunk of which reached high into the sky, and the branches of the tree were curved like dozens of black dragons dancing, and the leaves were so dense that they could cover the whole courtyard.
In the heat of summer, this place is simply a blessed place.
The stone slabs of the patio were covered with moss more than a finger thick, and another round window in the wing room, facing a vegetable garden behind it, and in the distance a bush of plantains, two slanting fruit trees, the branches of which were full of stamens.
Seeing that the environment was really quiet, Young Master Yao clapped his hands and shouted, "Wonderful!"
Dazhu came in with a bookcase and replied, "Young Master Yao, this is now a school, and it used to be a temple."
Young Master Yao smiled and asked, "Is that Mr.'s vegetable garden?"
Dazhu said: "Yes, my husband's family likes to grow vegetables, but I didn't have it before."
Shen Kan on the side picked up a book in the bookcase casually, turned the first page, it was Jia Yi's "On the Passage of Qin", and suddenly there was a very crisp and beautiful sound of reading from the window.
"Huh!" Young Master Yao was surprised and asked, "Are there any female students here?"
"Definitely." Shen Kan put the book down, "That's the gentleman's daughter, and she just came from the city to escape the summer, so she can probably live here for a while." ”
"I see, that's the junior sister." Young Master Yao said with a smile, "When I was a child, when I was in the annex outside, there were a few female classmates. At that time, there was no defense between men and women, I always played with them, sometimes I lost my temper, and I didn't speak for a few days, and then I learned that this was a childhood friend. At that time, I didn't understand anything, but unfortunately I missed the opportunity, and now everyone has no news, and in retrospect, I still envy it. ”
Shen Kan was a little amused and frowned, how old is this? began to sigh and reminisce about the youthful years between male and female classmates? I pity the people of old.
Mr.'s worries are really not unreasonable, at a young age, he thinks about the opposite sex, and he is even happier than just now when he sees his excitement, and he doesn't blame him for throwing him to the countryside.
But it's nothing, just like the other students, when they learn that Mr.'s daughter is coming, who is not happy to dance with their eyebrows, it is estimated that everyone fantasizes about something.
Seeing that Young Master Yao subconsciously wanted to go out to see what his senior sister looked like, Shen Kan said, "Okay, it's time to pass." Sir also needs to know your depth so that he can set a day lesson for you. ”
"Oh." Young Master Yao stopped moving, and there was a trace of regret on his face.
"Let's go!"
