Chapter Seventy-Five: Greeting the Delegation
When he arrived at Sister Li Mei's house, he followed Li Si to call the door. But it just so happened that as soon as Li Si raised his hand, someone inside opened the door and wanted to go out. This person Li You is very familiar with, it is the maid Yuexiang.
When she saw Li You, she was stunned for a moment, then glared at Master Li and asked, "What is Mr. Li doing?" ”
Li You didn't care either, and said with a smile: "I don't see you for a long time, visit Sister Mei." ”
"My master will not see you when he sees anyone!" Tsukika slammed the door shut.
Li You ate a closed door without psychological preparation, this is a treatment that he has not had for a long time... Trying to flirt failed but was molested, what kind of reason is this? Isn't it claimed that you are genuinely liked by a certain woman?
However, he wouldn't call the second door, so he turned around and left, but he looked at Qin Yuan from the outside of the alley.
By the way, this guy's main business is a book printer, and he will use it in the future. It will also be a neighbor to the door, it is not good to treat it too roughly, and the social atmosphere in these years should still pay attention to harmonious neighbors, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Li You thought about this, so he went to the door of Qin's house and said to Qin Yuanwai: "I am willing to lose the bet, bring paper and pen." ”
A servant carried a few pen and paper to the vestibule.
Li You claimed that he needed to be quiet, so he withdrew everyone around him, wrote there alone, and after a while, he threw away his large pen, got into the sedan chair and left.
Qin Yuanwai excitedly walked to the front of the case in three steps and two steps, and looked at it, only to see sixteen big characters: Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu, Zheng Wang, Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang, and the Universe is desolate. It is the beginning of a hundred family names and a thousand-character text, the famous words used in the enlightenment teaching of young children, especially this method, imitating the first child to be enlightened is really vivid... I can't believe that this is written by Master Li...
Qin Yuanwai's vision was still there, and he recognized that this wind was very similar to the eight words that Dai Miaozhu sold him... So I completely forgave Dai Miaozhu in my heart. If you say that this word is written by Master Li in front of you, you will be treated as a liar. Master Li really likes to joke, he made fun of Dai Miaozhu and made fun of him, but in the end he still refused to leave a serious Mobao, which is a pity.
Seeing that it was already slanting to the west, Li You went to the pier outside the north gate to pick up the passengers, and it was expected that the delegation from Fucheng would arrive soon. Originally, there was no need to go as an inspection, but he was the person in charge of praying for rain at the beginning of the month, and he had to come forward after being instructed by Chen Zhixian.
Sometimes this ideology in ancient times makes him complain about **, for the local why praying for rain is so ethereal and ethereal, the boss can send a delegation down to see, I heard that it is still a comprehensive of Buddhism, Taoism, ghosts and gods of various factions of the delegation.
When he came to the dock, Li You found that he was the latest, later than Zhou Xiancheng, who took the lead in greeting him, and was very rude. When Zhou Xiancheng saw Li You, he snorted coldly, turned around and pretended not to see it, he knew that to accuse Li You of pure self-inflicted humiliation.
Li You didn't bother to greet this Shangguan, and looked left and right to find someone to chat.
There are a lot of people who know each other in the field, such as Master Yuanru, the representative of the great god Guan Di, Jia Miaozhu, the representative of the god of Yinsi, the god of Yinsi, the representative of Dai Miaozhu, the representative of the professional fairy dragon king, and the representative of the local gentry, Mr. Yan...
All in all, Master Li finally found that he was surrounded by enemies... Helplessly, I stood aside and watched the scenery on the water. Someone came to him and shouted, "Master Li..."
Just listening to this voice, Li You knew that this was Dai Miaozhu, and at this time, the morning's anger had disappeared, and he was too lazy to scold him. I have to admit that learning about the big cake still makes him feel very good.
After a while, a big boat floated on the river, and the closer it became, the more familiar it became to Li You. When there were only ten zhang from the shore, Li You finally recognized it, isn't this the building ship of Zhao Liangli's big official?
Yes, this is the building ship that was lent out by Zhao Liangli as a flower boat at the beginning of the month, and Li You's name for Tanhua caused a lot of suspense such as the night royal girls.
Got the ship right? Li You was stunned, and a group of characters wearing various costumes came down. There are Buddhist monks, Taoist true monarchs, half-Taoist and half-Confucian, southern Xinjiang witches, barefoot heads...
There is also a white-haired old man of about sixty years wearing an official robe and a black veil, it is said that he is the leader of the Wupin Wang, surnamed Tongzhi, who is being greeted by Zhou County, and Master Yan is also beating the side drum.
Li You looked at this team, and felt that it was really boring, and even felt that he was very cheap. I'm also famous... There should be half of the Jiangnan characters, so they came to receive this group of things? In fact, in agricultural societies, it is very common to cause all kinds of absurd tragicomedy because of the lack of rain, some of them drown beautiful women to worship the gods, some of them have copulation in front of the gods to reconcile yin and yang, and some of them drag out of the gods and beat them to the sun (someone seems to have worked like this). Although Li You disagrees, social psychology is like this.
To say that there are people who seem to be high-ranking officials like Wupin Tongzhi, and Li You will not go up to flatter and flatter? Don't be kidding, whether you want to flatter or not, many times it doesn't necessarily depend on the grade. From ancient times to the present, how can the size of officialdom be so simple and clear? In addition to grades, there are also distinctions between clear and turbid currents among officials in the world, as well as distinctions between Zhengyin, Zuo Er, military positions, and miscellaneous positions, as well as the distinction between the prestige and real power of the official himself, as well as the distinction between the officials of his father, uncle, and father-in-law, and so on.
All of the above was said by Master Huang when he kindly taught Master Li (Li Dianshi at that time).
Let's just say that this old man Wang, or old man Wang, looks at Ben 60 and is still known as the second official who shakes his head, even if it is a fifth grade, at first glance, it is not a Qingliu Jinshi like Chen Zhixian, and he must have no background. Li You estimates that he has survived to this age and is still dead and does not retire, so that he can rely on his strong seniority to get a homonym and enjoy himself, and he has no influence on Li You, is it necessary to stammer? I didn't see Chen Zhixian and didn't bother to come to the dock to greet him, and it was a world of difference from the last time Lu Shangshu drove out of the city to kneel and greet him.
Maybe Zhou Xiancheng, who was also from the same background and had the same experience, and this old man Wang had a common language, and they could exchange their experience of sitting on the cold bench, Li You laughed in his heart. At this moment, on him, the consciousness of the merry and famous man who laughed at the arrogant and powerful was possessed, and he forgot that his own deity was a nine-rank martial artist to be appointed, and from the point of view of the merchant, it was far inferior to the object of ridicule.
A person's surname is always a very mysterious thing. In the face of the people, he is a nine-grade official; In the face of the "magnates" who are worse than Chen Zhixian, he is a proud and famous man; In the face of the unprovoked... Let's talk about it. Li You's recent mentality has become more and more comfortable, and his acting skills have improved greatly, especially after getting rid of the trouble of being a lowly official. Perhaps this is a good thing from a secular utilitarian point of view...
Finally, a gorgeous fan scribe came down, and the owner of the ship appeared. Li You greeted him and said: "I haven't seen the big officials for a long time, and I haven't thanked you for helping to get out of the collection last time." ”
This is indeed Zhao Liangli Zhao Daguan, he saw Li You's eyebrows tightened, brushed up the fan and pointed at Li You and said bitterly: "Why are you so willing to fall!" ”
Li You thought, I knew that someone would always say that.
