The so-called scholar clan gate valve began to flourish during the Three Kingdoms period, reaching its peak in the Tang Dynasty, and then under the suppression of the empress, it gradually moved towards the twilight of its years.

Ancient China was not without aristocrats. The prince and the prince are just a simple title, and the real scholar class is the Langya Wang clan who was able to rule the world with the Sima family in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the Chen Jun Xie clan who was able to speak in the court after the Battle of Weishui. In addition to the "old Wang Xie Tang Qianyan", there are also Qinghe Cui clan, who had 23 prime ministers in the Tang Dynasty, and Xianbei Dugu clan, who even the emperor had to borrow in the early years of the Sui Dynasty.

The family is definitely not a high-sounding four big characters, but a solid stone in the real sense.

Their entry can change the pattern of the imperial court, and their exit can stabilize the safety of the place. Their descendants prospered, and their poetry was passed down to their families. They either hold the lifeblood of the country, or they are rich enough to rival the country.

No ruler dared to look down on these families. After all, this is a society with three outlines and five constants, and the things contained in the simple word "family" are often heavier than the state.

The Sanyin Lu clan still has a place in this world where the scholar class is declining.

Zheng Chaofeng had naturally heard of it, and so had Li Liangchen.

"I have sent someone to investigate carefully, and now it seems that this Lu Hong should be the brother of Changping Lu Zhen in Huaixi, and somehow ran to Hangzhou. And there was only an old slave with him, the young man who came before, who was a guest in the calligraphy and painting shop. Zheng Chaofeng explained.

Mr. Wen Duan looks peaceful and friendly, and he is warm-hearted, but he didn't expect to be from an official family.

Li Liangchen listened to Zheng Chaofeng's report, and said lightly: "Do you tell my brother about this?" ”

"It's already been said."

"What did he say?"

Zheng Chaofeng smiled bitterly: "The owner is naturally very angry and said a few cruel words. But looking at it from below, in fact, the owner understands very well the reason that the people don't fight with the officials, and they should be scolded for a few more days. ”

When Li Liangchen heard this, he nodded slightly, and then stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became solemn again, and Zheng Chaofeng felt a cool spring breeze blowing in from the window, so he subconsciously shivered.

Li Liangchen did not let him retreat, nor did he let him stay.

Zheng Chaofeng couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Standing here for a while, Zheng Chaofeng looked at the cold face of the female owner, and it didn't take long for him to feel that his cheeks were a little numb. After thinking about it, he still stepped back.

Li Liangchen felt his movements and did not react in any way.

These are all things that have nothing to do with her, and Li Liangchen has always been indifferent to these things.

Compared with miscellaneous things, she pays more attention to the hairpin in front of her and the origin of the Hanmei picture.

Speaking of which, the author of the "Hanmei Picture" is likely to be the old man named Lu Hong. Again, if such a painting was made by a teenager...... It's not impossible, it's just that such a high talent, being a guest in a small calligraphy and painting shop, is too condescending.

Li Liangchen thought silently, quietly reading the book.

She never applies powder, but she still has a beautiful face. Her coldness is not like ice, because it is not so strong, but like jade, clear and clear, and completely good.

The catkins flew and slowly blew down from the window, and one fell on her green silk, fluttering, and finally blowing off the dust.

……

……

Although Liu Zhengqing has not yet taken the imperial examination, in fact, he is quite famous in Hangzhou, but Mr. Wenduan and Chu Feng are both new here, so they are not very clear.

The reason why he has been on the right path for the imperial examination for many years is because Liu Zhengqing strictly abides by the law of etiquette and keeps filial piety for his parents. This year has just been full of filial piety, and the township test is basically very safe, so there is no special rush to prepare.

A few days ago, because of the discord of relatives, I suffered a lawsuit, and I was blackmailed with a lot of money. Although Liu Zhengqing has a very light view of money and other things, he always has to pay back the money he borrows from others. Only then did I agree to the invitation of the Fan family and make a western seat for the little lady of the Fan family for a while.

Teaching women is always a relatively light thing, Liu Zhengqing thought, if he could, he would teach until a month before the autumn festival. At that time, I was preparing for my own life, and it shouldn't be too much of a problem to get the first place in the township exam.

Early this morning, it was the first day of teaching at Fan's house. Liu Zhengqing got up early, pushed the door and looked at the red glow outside, and couldn't help laughing three times, thinking that this was also a good omen of good luck!

I deliberately changed into clothes that I could handle...... In order to raise money before, I took all the clothes at home as a substitute, and only kept one just in case, but I didn't expect it to come in handy now.

This is a navy blue single shirt, with some dark blue lines inside, the hook edge of the pale gold brocade, and the belt is also pale gold, which looks quite noble.

Liu Zhengqing's wife, Zhou, helped him straighten his clothes, took a step back to take a closer look, and said with a gentle smile: "Husband is like this, he really deserves the words 'Qiyu Xuanang'." ”

"That's natural!" Liu Zhengqing laughed, "Wait for me to 'look up to the sky and laugh and go out', and let everyone see in a few days that 'my generation is a Penghao person'!" ”

Zhou covered his mouth and chuckled, his eyebrows were picturesque: "The other party is a girl from a big family, Zhengqing, you have to be careful over there, don't bump into anyone." ”

"Don't worry." Liu Zhengqing sighed and smiled, "I suffered such a big loss before, can I still not be sober?" By the way, Mr. Wen Duan from the calligraphy and painting shop entrusted me with one thing, you can help me ask. ”

The Zhou family naturally knew about Lu Wenduan and Chu Feng's great kindness to their family, and at this time, they were slightly surprised and curious, and asked, "How can we help?" If it is possible, it will be rewarded by springs. ”

"It's not that exaggerated." Liu Zhengqing smiled, "It's about my Chu brother." What Mr. Wen Duan means is that Brother Chu has also reached the age of marriage, but he doesn't seem to have any ideas, but as an elder, he really doesn't care about it. But I was afraid that if I mentioned it directly to him, the Chu brothers would refuse, so I ......"

"So let me ask around first, and then mention it to that Chu Langjun when I'm almost done, isn't it?" Zhou's Lan is smart and intelligent, and he guesses it.

Liu Zhengqing stroked his palms and admired: "That's the truth!" I, Liu Zhengqing, am really virtuous, how can I be so virtuous and helpful. If Brother Chu knew, he would probably be depressed. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zhou didn't understand the latter sentence.

Liu Zhengqing said with a smile: "No matter how long we worry about his marriage, he can't find such a good wife as my family, of course he will be depressed." ”

When Zhou heard this, he glanced at him, as if he was disgusted, with a three-point style.

Handing him the bookcase that his husband had prepared the day before yesterday, Zhou Shi thought about it and said, "Zhengqing, don't be busy leaving, I have something to ask." Although it is Mr. Wenduan's meaning, it is difficult for us to refuse. However, listening to what you mean, the origin of Brother Chu is very vague, and he doesn't even know where he came from...... Such a person, not to mention that it is not easy to find a matchmaker for him, even you, husband...... Ay! I'm afraid that he will not be the son of a criminal or a substitute. If you befriend him too deeply, you will be implicated in the future......"

Liu Zhengqing frowned and said, "What are you talking about!" No matter what Brother Chu's background is, he is the benefactor of our Liu family! It's already inappropriate for you to talk behind your back like this, do you still want me to cut off relations with my benefactor! ”

Liu Zhengqing was really annoyed, so he didn't even pay attention to his wife's explanation, snorted coldly, grabbed the bookcase, turned around and left, and walked out of the door.

"Husband, you ......" Zhou chased two steps out, and saw that he had already walked out of the courtyard gate, lest he would be known by the neighbors when he went out to talk, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing!

Ay! Husband, husband! Too rigid and easy to break, as your father used to warn you before. But now, how can you still do things so black and white!

Zhou held on to the courtyard gate to see his husband, and when the back turned out of the alley, he sighed and turned back.

And Liu Zhengqing's side, after striding for a while, came to the West Market, he looked at the lively market, and his mood also improved.

Fan's calligraphy and painting shop is not far from the entrance of the West Market, with three floors up and down, noble and elegant, it is the largest calligraphy and painting shop in the whole city of Hangzhou, and it is not comparable to ordinary stores.

Liu Zhengqing stood in front of the door and looked at it, and couldn't help but admire, thinking that the layout of this store was more than ten times bigger than that of Mr. Wen Duan's family. Moreover, I heard that among the Fan's calligraphy and painting shops, this one in Hangzhou City is the smallest, but it is also the point where it is now shocking. I don't know what their family's calligraphy and painting guild will look like in other cities.

"This Lang Jun, do you want to enjoy calligraphy and painting or buy some knives, paper, pen and ink? Do you know a familiar customer? ”

When the people in the store saw Liu Zhengqing standing outside and looking, they hurriedly came up to greet him.

Liu Zhengqing retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Are you Sanlangjun at home?" I was invited to be a teacher in your house. ”

"It turned out to be the new Mr. Xixi!" The servant was obviously told, and at this time he hurriedly invited Liu Zhengqing to the building, "It's really a long way off." Our host instructed us several times yesterday that you should come into the inner courtyard for tea when you arrived, and he would come out immediately. ”

Liu Zhengqing arched his hand at the servant and said with a smile: "Thank you!" Please lead the way. ”

Walking in with the little servant all the way, Liu Zhengqing would naturally pass by the hall on the first floor, looking at the dazzling array of famous calligraphy and paintings, he couldn't help but admire, and he didn't feel that he thought: A "Beijing Wine Post" can make Chu Feng's kid obsessed with that appearance, if he came to this place, wouldn't he be obsessed with seven days and seven nights? At that point, I'm afraid I'll forget to eat!

If you think about it, it might really be like that. Moreover, even Chu Feng's demeanor at that time could guess three points!

Liu Zhengqing couldn't help laughing out loud when he thought of this.

How did he know that the girl he was going to teach was not much different from Chu Feng's obsession with calligraphy and painting.
