"Young master, young master, it's terrible, it's terrible. Get up....... ”

Zhang Mu, who was still asleep, couldn't help frowning, at this time the door had been pushed open, and the pine lines blew in like a gust of wind, shouting constantly.

"What for?" Zhang Mu was sleepy, last night was nervous, excited, worried, all kinds of things, tossing and turning for half the night, when the sky was bright, he fell asleep in a daze, and he didn't wake up at all at this moment.

"Get dressed, the patriarch is coming to you. Hurry up. As he spoke, Songwen had already pulled Zhang Mu up from the couch, and hurriedly dressed him.

"Patriarch?" Zhang Mu suddenly sobered up, it seemed that the case had happened, and Zhang Mu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

At this time, Zhang Mu heard a noisy noise outside, and it seemed that there were many people coming.

Immediately afterwards, an old man in his sixties, with gray hair and a square scarf wearing a green cloth robe, entered the room first, and he was Zhang Fu, the patriarch of the Zhang family.

Then Aunt Zhou, Wang Hongtai, Wang Jiaoyu and others rushed in.

"It's him, it's him, how could this official be wrong?" Wang Jiaoyu pointed at Zhang Mu and laughed.

"Grass farmer Zhang Mu knocks to see the Sect Master." Immediately, Zhang Mu knelt down and saluted.

"Good boy, get up. In this year's county exam, Lord Zhang personally appointed you as the head of the case, congratulations. Wang Jiaoyu hugged Zhang Mu and smiled very happily.

"Muzhi, thank you for your teaching." At this time, the patriarch of the Zhang family, Zhang Fu, stroked his gray beard and smiled faintly.

"Huh? Thank you, sir. Zhang Mu was stunned at first, and then smiled happily.

"Zhang Yuanwai, to be honest, this sect has been teaching in Yongkang for seven or eight years, and it seems that it is the first time I have seen Zhang Mu who is so talented and outstanding. You Zhang family is going to show your face again. Wang Jiaoyu turned around and said with a wry smile.

"Lord Wang praised it falsely, Mu Zhi's age is still young, but he can't stand such praise." Zhang Fu's old face was full of red light, and he smiled a little proudly.

"The ancients Yunshan is not high, and there are immortals. The water is not deep, and if there is a dragon, it will be spiritual. Don't you hear that Gan Luo worshiped the prime minister at the age of twelve? I think this Muzhi is very spiritual, the article is written elegantly and handsomely, Zhang Zhixian and I are full of praise, and we have to cultivate it well. Wang Jiaoyu smiled faintly.

"Yes, yes, grass people." Zhang Fu hurriedly smiled.

"Zhang Mu, although the results of the county examination are good, as the saying goes, there is no end to learning, don't be complacent." Wang Jiaoyu said with the appearance of an old master, and after a pause, he continued: "In addition, Zhang Zhixian has already reported to you for the Jinhua Mansion Examination, but you must hurry up and study, don't waste your studies." Zhang Zhixian and I are both optimistic about you. Don't live up to Lord Zhang's high expectations. ”

"Students must be indignant and strong, and they must live up to the high expectations of adults." Zhang Mu hurriedly said.

"That's fine, the official will go back to his life." Wang Jiaoyu said with a smile.

"I'll send you." Immediately, Zhang Fu hurriedly followed behind Wang Jiaoyu and walked towards the gate.

At this moment, there was a sudden silence in the room.

Shepherd Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, the first step of the plan seemed to be smooth so far, and then hurriedly followed.

After a while, the king sent off the edict, and everyone returned to the hall.

Zhang Fu sat on the main seat, holding a tea cup in his hand, with a solemn face and silence.

Aunt Zhou sat on the lower side, her face very ugly.

And Zhang Mu sat on the right side of the patriarch, raised his head and chest, looked ahead with a childish look, and glanced at Aunt Zhou meaningfully, but the corners of his mouth raised a sneer.

When Aunt Zhou saw this, the muscles on her cheeks couldn't help but tremble twice, her sharp gaze was like a blade, and the murderous aura was permeated, but it was just a flash, and her face still had a dignified and virtuous and kind expression.

Today's matter is too sudden, she doesn't know that there is a mistake in that link, the patriarch is here, she can't have a seizure, so she can only endure it.

"Laneige, Ran'er has been gone for some years, and the old man has seen that it is not easy for you orphans and widows, and he also takes great care of you. Although I rarely inquire about the affairs of the house, I also know that you are not so poor. Mu Zhi is a master, how can he live in the next person's room? At this time, the patriarch put the teacup on the table and asked with a bit of anger in his tone.

"Patriarch, it's the slave family who didn't think it through, at first it was Brother Mu who had to quarrel to live there, and the slave family planned to repair the main house ......." Aunt Zhou trembled, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said.

"Well, you don't have to say much. I know that you have always been a kind-hearted person, and you have treated the shepherd as your own. It's just that people like us still have to be face-saving in the end. Mu Zhi is young and ignorant, aren't you sensible? The patriarch didn't look at Aunt Zhou, interrupted his words and reprimanded. He had already lived to this age, and as soon as he arrived at Zhang Mu's room today, he understood everything in his heart. It's just that Zhang Mu is still young, and this is another family matter, so it's not easy to meddle, so just reprimand a few words, and just sue for it.

"The slave family is guilty, the patriarch can rest assured, I will clean up the room for him." Aunt Zhou's eyes were red, and she said with a little grievance.

"You have to remember that there is an order between the inferior and the inferior, and there is a difference between the upper and lower levels, and the rules of the ancestors cannot be messed up. Mu Zhi is the eldest son of the second room, and the most important thing at the moment is his studies, he is the hope of my Zhang family, you have to have a sense of proportion in your heart. The patriarch admonished.

"The slave family understands." Aunt Zhou hurriedly wiped her tears and said.

"Patriarch, don't blame Aunt Zhou, that is indeed what I asked to go." At this time, Zhang Mu, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile.

"You kid is kind-hearted, why are you afraid that I will blame your aunt wrong?" The patriarch laughed jokingly.

"Where did the patriarch say? I just think it's pure and suitable for studying. In addition, I have a request, and I ask the patriarch to grant it. Zhang Mu said with a smile.

"Don't say a request, as long as it's related to your studies, I'll agree to a hundred." The patriarch smiled with satisfaction.

"Next month is the prefectural exam, followed by the prefectural exam, so I plan to let my husband move to the prefectural house for a while. Mr. Wang is rich in learning and has five cars, and he is full of economy. The grandson is good, let the gentleman guide and guide well. Zhang Mu said with a smile.

"Patriarch......."

"Yes, yes, and this year is in the autumn season, with Brother Mu'er's strength, you can give it a try. If it is lifted, but Zhang Fu is the first person to raise since the Ming Dynasty, this kind of glorious ancestor can not be delayed. It just so happens that I'm fine, and it's also a good thing to move here to watch him, after all, he is young and playful, so the patriarch must be at ease. Wang Hongtai didn't wait for Aunt Zhou to finish speaking, so he preemptively said.

"This ......, the old man thinks it's troublesome." The patriarch smiled faintly.

"It's not troublesome, Brother Mu is smart, as clever as his father, and it's strange to say, and he is very close to his late life. I don't think the patriarch will hesitate. Don't worry, I'm a bad student, are you still afraid that I won't be able to teach badly? Wang Hongtai said jokingly.

"Anyway, Laneige, Mr. Wang's kindness, I think the old man will make the decision in this matter. Since the gentleman is willing to teach, the pastor is willing to learn. Let Mr. Zhou move in. The patriarch stroked his gray beard and smiled.

"Thank you, Patriarch." Zhang Mu hurriedly got up and said.

"Thank me for what? You have to thank Mr. Wang. Okay, I'll help Mr. pack up later. The patriarch laughed.

"Patriarch, I'll go clean up the room and let Mr. Wang rest." Aunt Zhou hurriedly got up and said.

"Mrs. stay, it's second to clean up the room for me, but Brother Mu should also clean up well." Wang Hongtai said in a deep voice.

Aunt Zhou suddenly realized at this moment, and said secretly in her heart: "rì guard against the night, I didn't even prevent this surnamed Wang!" That little dog really lied to me. However, he smiled modestly on his face: "Brother Mu has always been crazy, so he ......." ”

Patriarch Zhang Fu saw that Zhang Mu was thinly dressed, it was only February, the weather was still very cold, and it was filthy, so he couldn't help but glare back at Aunt Zhou.

Aunt Zhou, who was suddenly frightened, hurriedly lowered her head, not daring to say anything.

"Mr. Wang, you have worked hard. In a moment, I will send someone to give you twenty treasure bills. Half of it is a little bit of old age, and the other half is a reward for Brother Mu'er," the patriarch got up and looked at Aunt Zhou, frowning and said.

"Gee, how can you break the bank. There is no shortage of these in my house. Aunt Zhou hurriedly said.

"Lack or not is this my intention as an elder, this is also the rule of the ancestors! Mr. Wang lives here, and your house will send a few capable servants and maids to serve you. When the patriarch said this, he said with a little annoyance: "In addition, Muzhi is a master in the end, and the master must have the appearance of a master." ”

"Yes, yes, I wrote it down." Aunt Zhou hurriedly nodded and said.

"Laneige, after the Munoyuan test, you can take out part of the family's property and hand it over to him to take care of. This one, it's still his in the end! The patriarch said coldly.

"The slave family understands, the slave family understands!" Aunt Zhou was shocked and hurriedly said.

"Okay, let's go." After saying that, the patriarch waved his sleeves and walked towards the door.

Out of the gate, the patriarch got into the car, Wang Hongtai got on the horse, Aunt Zhou's eyes were slightly red, she wiped her tears aggrievedly, and looked at Zhang Mu lovingly: "Brother Mu'er, go early and return early, and my aunt will make you something to eat in the evening." ”

"Auntie, don't worry, I'll be back." At this time, Zhang Mu's immature face showed a meaningful sneer, and Aunt Zhou's back was cold.

After speaking, Zhang Mu got into the patriarch's carriage without looking back, and went in the direction of Wang Hongtai's house surrounded by several servants.

Aunt Zhou looked at the carriage in a daze, her delicate body began to tremble slightly, and her eyes gradually became hideous.

"Madam, let's go back. It's weirdly cold outside. Cai Lian whispered.

Aunt Zhou turned around and gave her a resounding slap in the face, and said angrily: "It's all useless things." Go tell Zhang Chi that I have something important to see him. With that, he went to the hall angrily.
