Chapter 209: The Great Three Yuan (5)
The more Sima Guang thought about it, the more suspicious he became, and the longer he got along with this little junior brother, the more he didn't dare to underestimate this little junior brother. Seeing that he is an honest man, in fact, if he doesn't get it right, he will be fooled, and he has a good memory, and it is difficult to gain the upper hand every time he fights with him.
This time...... Well, again, it fell into the wind.
Wang Xiaosan began to exert his powerful mouth function and said: "Sima Sanlang, the second son of Tao Zhugong broke the law in Chu State, and ordered his third son to go to the rescue with his daughter, but his wife refused, and his eldest son was released. Tao Zhugong reluctantly agreed, and finally said that the eldest son went not to save his son, but to harm his son. Sure enough, after asking the reason, the eldest son of the Tao has been starting a business with his own difficulties since he was a child, so he is stingy with money, and the second son will not give up his wealth when he goes to the camp, and he will not save his wealth if he does not give up his wealth. Sima Saburo, it's not important, it's not eye-catching. ”
"Isn't there any other way?"
"How does the province treat you and me? not only taught us knowledge, the way of life, and the way of governance, but also implored Feng Shilang to teach us studies, food and drink, which is not the Zheng family? Just a piece of jade pendant, you can't bear it? Are you still qualified to talk about respecting teachers? ”
It's not that the Sima family has no money, on the contrary, the Zheng family's conditions are better now, and they may not catch up with the Sima family. Unless Zheng Lang vacates the larger-scale carved silk embroidery and textile workshop in Zhangjiazhuang and appropriates it as his own property.
But that will inevitably provoke criticism from the speaker in the future.
This workshop is to stay to do some good things in the future. In the future, there are more places for the imperial court to ask for money!
The name belongs to the Zheng family, but in fact, Zheng Lang plans to temporarily keep it for the little emperor, and when it is on the track, he will hand it over to the imperial court to operate. It can be regarded as adding an additional benefit to the imperial court.
However, the situation of the Zheng family at this time is far from being comparable to what it used to be, can Zheng Lang use up the money?
Sima Jiahao opened his mouth and said, my son spent money at your house, how much money will he give you a year? At this level, thinking about the cost of hundreds of dollars this year is not a clear account for his brothers, but a disdain for the character of the Zheng family. Can't open this mouth! You can only keep gratitude in your heart.
Wang Anshi just turned it out, what else could Sima Guang do?
looked at this jade pendant painfully, and nodded after most of the time: "It's up to you." ”
But in the blink of an eye, the mood improved.
This time, if you fight again, more people will inevitably pay attention, and when the matter reaches your home, she will already go to Jiangnan with the little teacher, and her mother will not chase Jiangnan and beat herself. But can Wang Anshi run away? It's just Jiang Ning, the beating that was sent to the door!
It is estimated that most of this kid can't hide, otherwise he wouldn't have seen himself beaten last time, and he had a sad expression on his face.
Then he called Lu Gongzhu again, Lu Gongzhu was very honest, and after hearing this, he said: "This is not good." ”
"Lu Sanlang, the provincial yuan doesn't like to distinguish more, and he has talent and learning, Mu Xiu is in the forest, the wind will urge him, and even the power is thin, if we don't defend him, who will maintain it? The more talented you are, the more vulnerable you are to being attacked by some villains. Once Fan satirizes it, the provincial yuan will gradually enter the political arena later, and there will be more political enemies who will attack him endlessly. Do you want to see that? ”
“……”
"Is Fan Wei a good courtier? For the sake of wealth and wealth, help your father reverse black and white, depose the queen, and then ask for excess, and then ask for Dongfu, but your father refuses, and immediately rebels against him. He can only confuse His Majesty for a while, but are you also bewitched by him? ”
“……”
"Not only for the sake of saving the dollar, but also for the country. What do you do reading? Is it for the sake of the country, for the sake of the people? ”
"If you don't say it, I agree to participate in ......"
Besides, let the two juniors crush themselves to death with a big hat.
…… Zheng Lang didn't know anything about this matter, and even brought the four elementary schools over in order to carry the four elementary schools.
teamed up with Zhang Fangping to invite more than 50 lifters, not all of them are in good conditions at home, neutralize it, and make an appointment to Chef Guo's house in East Ji'er Lane.
Tokyo City's restaurants such as Renhe Hotel, Eight Immortals Building, Huixian Restaurant, etc., these restaurants are good, not only the dishes are delicious and delicious, the decoration is exquisite, even the edible utensils, bowls, cups, plates, chopsticks, bowls are made of silver, but the price is also expensive, often the cost of a meal is as much as several hundred taels of silver. Therefore, Lu Zongdao entertained guests at Renhe Hotel, which alarmed Song Zhenzong, at that time Lu Zongdao had not really made a fortune, and his salary was less, so he replied honestly: "The minister's family is poor and has no utensils, and the wine store has all kinds of things, and he feels at home." ”
Most of it is exaggerated, it is about Xiao Lu who has a good face, and then he went to Renhe Hotel to entertain guests. Besides, what kind of utensils can't be bought for the cost of a meal, and from another point it also proves how expensive it is to go to Renhe Hotel for consumption, otherwise why is Huang Yanjing alarmed?
There are a total of 72 large hotels like this, and because they are too expensive, many people and people choose another kind of restaurant, called a foot shop. These foot shops sell expensive and fine liquor, to welcome the expensive food, but there are also some foot shops famous, such as Xi'an Zhou Lane Zhang Xiu, Yici Baokang Gate Li Qingjia, East Ji'er Lane Guo Kitchen, Song Kitchen, Caomen brick tube Li family, Sidong Dice Li family, Huang Fat Family, Jiuqiaomen Street is a street of wine shop foot shop, Cai Lou relative, embroidered and beckoned, cover the sky. Even seeing that these foot shops are doing well, in history, after a few decades, Changqinglou put down his frame and opened a "chain store", specializing in foot shop business, because of its reputation, it quickly jumped above all families.
The foot shop is slightly inferior to the big hotel, but it is also very lively, there are tea and rice doctors who specialize in selling wine cooks, and there are shop guys who are attentive to service, but the title makes Zheng Lang very unaccustomed, and the shop children are called uncles regardless of size. This is the normal staffing, and there are also the women, that is, the neighborhood women, who change the soup and pour wine for the drinkers, and let the drinkers rub some oil in their hands to earn their tips. Some teenagers took the initiative to come to listen to the calls of customers, buy some things, call for memorization, give money and goods, etc., and called them idlers. There are also customers, uninvited girls who come to sing. Some people who sell medicine and fruits do not ask whether the drinkers buy them or not, but scatter them to the customers, and then get money, which is called a temporary sale. It is a foot shop, and there are also official records in the seventy-two big hotels, and even some famous heads can also come to perform, accompany the wine or let them rub the oil, and send flower cards.
Don't think that the hotel is very noisy, the same as the teahouse, the big sister and the little sister who took the initiative to send it to the door, there are countless of them, and there are also in the Vasheri, not to mention the hook bar, which is someone's home...... There are a lot of people, not only more than fifty people, but also the little maids they bring with them, or Mei Ji from the capital, Zheng Lang more, four students, five little maids, and a few "bodyguards", but they are all standing outside the foot shop. Ten people went in that way.
Therefore, Zhang Fangping chartered the entire second floor of Chef Guo's house, which was a temporary conference room at that time.
When the two of them reached the second floor, there were already many scholars.
Zhang Fangping commanded the attendant, cleared the field, except for the "uncle" who ran the hall, other idlers, etc., Yan Cao, idlers, scavengers, sa temporary, cleaned up together, and then let the servant carry a few pieces of money, blocked the stairway, if you want to come up, give a few money, isn't it money, don't bother us.
At this time, he was in his twenties, and he could see some of the vigorous and resolute demeanor of the future.
Only then did he sit down and speak, first arched his hand, looked around and said: "Those who want to be clear and virtuous in the world will rule the country first; Those who want to rule their country must first gather their families; Those who want to gather their families must first cultivate their bodies; Those who want to cultivate their bodies must first correct their hearts; Those who want to correct their hearts must first be sincere; If you want to be sincere, you should know it first. Enlightenment is in Gewu. Character and then know, know and then sincerity, sincerity and then heart, heart and then body cultivation, body cultivation and then family Qi, family Qi and then national governance, national governance and then the world is peaceful. From the Son of Heaven to the common people, all of them are based on self-cultivation. Those who are chaotic and end up in the end will not be able to do so. What is thick is thin, and what is thin is thick, and there is nothing. This is called the knowledge of the book, and this is the knowledge of the best. ”
The words in the first paragraph of "The University" are also the center of the university.
Then he looked at Liu Yong and asked: "What is from the Son of Heaven to the Shuren, one is based on self-cultivation." Those who are chaotic and end up in the end will not be able to do so. What is thick is thin, and what is thin is thick, and there is nothing. This is called the knowledge of the book, and this is the knowledge of the best? ”
deliberately wanted to trouble Liu Yong, he didn't know that Liu Yong had a good wife, but he knew that Liu Yong's behavior was too much! Although Zheng Lang invited Liu Yong to come, Zhang Fangping's fierce surname still looked down on this person.
You are so good at being useful, and your virtue is not good at zero, and the lyrics, what is it now, like painting, it is a small road in the trail, and the status is not even as good as calligraphy!
Zheng Lang had a headache.
He can't say, Brother Zhang, this gentleman is much more famous than you in the hearts of future generations.
Liu Yong replied: "This sentence is from the whole world to the common people, everyone takes self-cultivation as the foundation, if the book is messed up, it is impossible to cultivate oneself and govern the country." It is impossible to put the cart before the horse and try to do things well. Only by grasping the essence can cognition reach the extreme. ”
"Righteous self-cultivation, Qi family, ruling the country and leveling the world, what first?"
"Start with the right heart."
"What is the Qi family?"
Zheng Lang secretly tugged at Zhang Fangping's clothes, grandma's, I kindly called Liu Yong to give him a chance, not to become the target of your rebellion.
Liu Yong didn't see it, and still replied honestly: "Manage your own home and family." ”
It is also a standard answer, the concept of family gradually weakened in the Song Dynasty, but before the Song Dynasty, including the Tang Dynasty, the concept of family was also very serious, not to mention the time of Confucius. Therefore, when interpreting this sentence, the word family must be included.
Zheng Lang was dragging it, Zhang Fangping didn't make it difficult anymore, in fact, to deal with Liu Yong, he had to open a fierce medicine like Zhang Fangping, or let it go, and he was not allowed to continue to leave beautiful lyrics for future generations. Zheng Lang's methods are still softer, and it is not easy to wake up Liu Sanchang at this time.
Zhang Fangping said again: "Ladies and gentlemen, the master said that the heart is right first, and then self-cultivation, the family is united, and the country is governed. But look at what some of my students do? He is dedicated to reading books, his parents have worked hard all his life, and when he is old, he is still working hard for him, his wife and children are old and young, and his food and clothing are not guaranteed, but he does not care whether the family lives or dies, and continues to read dead books. Is this kind of behavior filial? Benevolent? Kindness? ”
Not to mention other scholars, among the scholars invited this time were one or two nerds who read dead books.
Cai Kang said cautiously: "Brother Zhang, not everyone is as talented as you and Zheng Xingyuan, they were originally very difficult in the scientific examination, and they are afraid that it will be even more difficult to deal with family affairs." ”
"So you suck the blood lipids of your wife and children?"
Cai Kang couldn't speak.
In any case, such an approach must be wrong, otherwise how could the master come to the saying that the family first will rule the country later?
If you don't manage your home, what are your abilities to run the country?
"It's not necessarily, Zhu Maichen still made a living by chopping wood before he made a career." Yang Cha said.
"However, Zhu Maichen still knows how to chop firewood to feed his wife and children, let me ask some students, have they put down their bodies to chop wood?
Yang Cha couldn't speak.
In fact, for this reason, Zhang Fangping also had a dispute with Zheng Lang, asked more, and even used Liu Mei as an analogy, Zheng Lang replied: "Seven points for success, three points for heavenly luck, although Liu Mei was very unsuccessful before he made a career, but he worked hard, not only relying on the Queen Mother's performance......"
Zhang Fangping thought about it carefully, but it was also, at least Liu Mei was not a bloodsucking worm, but the most shameless bloodsucking worm that specialized in sucking parents, wives and children at home!
But he reminded him carefully: "The Queen Mother's performance can't be mentioned much." ”
Zheng Lang shook his head, he and Zhao Zhen also talked about this matter, don't deny it, take a look, the minister is from the poor, the queen mother is from the poor, this is the enlightened Song Dynasty, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can take the throne. Not only did he not shy away from it, but he even encouraged it to say that if there were any bad years in the country, it would reduce the resentment of the poor people. Zhao Zhen thought so. The ruler wants to add divine light to his body, but the real people have not heard Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's sentence that the king will be Xiangning?
Shenguang plays a supporting role, and the real leading role is to eliminate the dissatisfaction of the poor people. Including the imperial examination system and some other measures of the imperial court, the effect is not very good, but I have worked hard for this.
Zhang Fangping said again: "What are we studying for? For the sake of the career. So what is the purpose of being an official? For the sake of wealth? Or is it to share the worries of the Lord? ”
Just for the sake of wealth, dare to answer?
Zheng Lang looked at him with admiration again, among the movers in this session, Zhang Fangping should be regarded as the most accomplished. Sure enough, it is very good, the morale is high, and the heart of worrying about the country and the people is overflowing.
Zhang Fangping saw that everyone acquiesced to his statement, and said: "The most pity is that a small number of people rely on their families and wives to support their studies, and once they are in high school, they will immediately leave their wives." This is a beast too! ”
There are many drops of sweat.
But the two children cheered and said, "Good scolding, good scolding!" ”
There really is, don't think that Huo Xiaoyu in the Song Dynasty told the story of Li Yi and Huo Xiaoyu in the Tang Dynasty, there were similar examples in the Song Dynasty, and it was not a name, but a good wife!
Zhang Fangping's voice changed and said, "But there are some people who are really forced by life. I had to study and work again, but as a result, I was distracted by work, my family was miserable, and my books were distracted by my studies, and I didn't do well in the exam. Therefore, His Majesty saw all the white-haired people at the Lantern Festival, and issued an order to perform a special name test, and then issued an order to relax the authority. But there are already too many officials in the state, and this move is not to save them, but to raise disasters for the country and the people. Therefore, Zheng Xingyuan and I discussed for two days, and gathered everyone together to discuss that if there were some workshops, fields and shops in the family, they could take in some poor people and relieve the sorrows of the imperial court. ”
Zheng Lang only began to speak at this time: "I will summon six to seven juzi to serve as the stewards of some workshops, and in addition, this winter I will successively take out 5,000 yuan to set up two enlightenment primary schools to accommodate some children of poor people to study." ”
The big workshop in Zhangjiazhuang, as well as the granary in Songzhou, are all done by the uncle of the Zhang family, and it is not a long-term solution, so the Zheng family also lacks six or seven stewards, and they have done good things. But the crowd was attracted to something else.
"What is Enlightenment Elementary School?" Sun Gu asked curiously.
"Recruit children from poor families under 10 years old, invite a few Confucian students, and teach them four years of free education, just for them to know some simple words, educate some simple principles of life, and then select some excellent qualifications from each school to send them to the state school, neither mistaking talents, nor making some children with poor qualifications become bookworms, but misleading his life."
"That's a good idea," said some of them excitedly.
Zheng Lang's family can also be Zhang Fangping's family, but there are still people who are richer and more powerful than the two of them, and some people don't take money seriously when they have more money. If you have a good name in the countryside, you may be able to meet a few talents, and your own family will benefit, not much, as long as you meet one or two jinshi and work hard to cultivate it, the money invested will be worth it.
Zhang Fangping saw that it was not good, and said that the enlightenment primary school was not a serious matter, coughed, and said: "I am also the master of the family, and I will recruit five or six people to do stewards or accounts at home." ”
Chang'an raised his son Shi Zhongyu and said: "Brother Zhang, but there are countless poor people in the world, what role can a few of us play?" ”
"No, this is the second thing that Zheng Xingyuan and I called you to come to discuss, and now there are more than 1,000 people staying in the capital, as well as all the students, and there are at least 200 families in the middle who can accommodate a few poor people. Otherwise, we can jointly write a letter to ask Your Majesty to issue a righteous decree and order the gentry of the world to manifest their righteous deeds. Moreover, these acts are not for them to provide for in their homes, but to do things. Why nepotism? ”
Everyone thinks about it, anyway, it's about employing people, and most of the relatives and villagers used to use it, and occasionally it is mixed with a few poor people, and it is not difficult to use a few relatives. But Zhaozhou Jinshi Shen Henghu asked suspiciously: "Then what should you students do?" ”
It is easy to solve, and there are only tens of thousands of lifters in the country, and less than one-tenth of them have really passed the morning and evening. After all, there are many people who have merit and fame, how many people can be mixed up to that point? The east family is plugged, and the west family is squeezed, and it will be solved.
If I encounter that kind of person who does not understand the affairs of the world, I would rather starve to death than be fed by the mouth, but I want to live this kind of miserable life, there is no cure, who cares?
There is a much larger group below Guan Jian.
Zhang Fangping didn't think about it and replied: "If you don't even pass the exam before the age of forty, you still want to dream of the high school palace exam, waiting for the world to drop the gold cake and smash it on your body." ”
This metaphor makes everyone speechless, there are still some, but the probability is indeed no less than the world falling gold cake.
In this way, all the problems are solved. The faces of the scholars were radiant, and if they were done well, this matter could also be recorded in the annals of history. So they got together to discuss, and then wrote a recital and asked Zheng Lang to write it, Zheng Lang resigned, and let Zhang Fangping preside over the matter, and asked him to preside over it to the end.
Zhang Fangping is not pretentious, anyway, he always has to write alone. picked up the pen and wrote two copies, the first one was a promise, such as Zheng Lang's promise of five thousand yuan at the end of the year, two enlightenment primary schools and six or seven stewards, Zhang Fangping's promise of five or six lifters, one enlightenment primary school, and one-third of the other scholars made some promises. Lu Xiaosan was enthusiastic and said: "My family spent 10,000 yuan to build four enlightenment primary schools, and summoned ten people to be the stewards' accounts. ”
Zheng Lang was frightened and said, "Hey, Lu Sanlang, does your father agree?" ”
"Why don't you agree?"
"Good ......" What else can Zheng Lang say, Lu Yijian will set an example and will play a role. Not only him, but also the son of a scholar and merchant in Yangzhou also promised to come up with 10,000 yuan. Don't take these big businessmen seriously, they can't count the amount of money.
It's good to run this enlightenment primary school, take a look, meet a few talents, if you win, aren't you grateful to your own family? A thanksgiving, in case of development, can you not take care of your own family? 1. What else can't be recovered? There are even more sisters and daughters in the family, and there will be even more kindness and affection. Save the list to catch a son-in-law, catch a broken head and bleed, and often make trouble if you don't get it right.
Dare to think about this.
But the surname is the same as Zilu Shouniu, there is no return, it is possible to help an old lady up, can help the unlucky, kindly lend money to help others, and also met a scammer, donate money to do good deeds, but give someone a second wife, who will do good deeds in the end?
After the thing was done, when it was time to consume, let people come up, Zhang Fangping in order to complete the task, today broke the fee, all the consumption was packaged, there was no note, shouting to come up to accompany him, eat wine and have fun, and then let Zheng Lang write, Zheng Lang had no choice but to write a line of words: The land is wide, the people are many, the people are large, and the soldiers are strong. It is Mount Tai that does not let Shiyang, so it can become its greatness; The river and the sea do not choose a trickle, so they can be deep; The king is not only the people, so he can understand his virtue. It is that there are no four places, no foreign countries for the people, the four seasons are full of beauty, and the ghosts and gods are blessed. The reason why the five emperors and the three kings are invincible is also. Now it is to abandon the head of the Guizhou to fund the enemy country, but the guests are the princes, so that the people of the world do not dare to retreat westward, and they do not enter the Qin.
Mount Tai does not choose the soil and big, the river and the sea do not choose the trickle and deep, one more good thing is one, do not take the good small and do nothing.
But Zheng Lang values not the front, but the back, the Khitan in the past, and the party immediately, is it now abandoning the head of Guizhou to fund the enemy country, but the guests are the princes, so that the people of the world do not dare to retreat westward, and they do not enter the Qin, this so-called stealing grain through the soldiers is also?
How long has this phrase come out? It's been more than a thousand years, but so many officials in the Song Dynasty are like blind people, they don't see it!
Looking at a few lines of beautiful big characters, another admiration was dissipated. Anyway, the list will not come out in a few days, and they will start running one by one. If one person or two people preside, the speed will be very slow, more than 50 people, string up, and then string on, Hugh said that the number of scholars left behind is almost nine-tenths, even if all of them stay, it will not take long to string up. In just two days, almost all the scholars who stayed in the country signed and signed the joint letter, providing more than 1,100 "employment opportunities" and more than 70 enlightenment schools with 320,000 yuan.
The joint letter soon arrived in the middle book, Lu Yijian knew about it early, but instead of opposing Lu Gongshu to take out 10,000 yuan, on the contrary, he also praised it, it is good, money is outside the body, and this participation in it will be an important part of his son's virtue in the future. If Gong Lu is silent this time, he will be scolded when he comes back!
But some people can't think of it, for example, Lao Fan will soon be disgraced for a few hundred taels of silver.
Almost the first speed was presented in front of Zhao Zhen's eyes, Zhao Zhen was overjoyed, and was worried about these poor and old moves, the good family moves will be old when they are old, and if they don't hit, they won't win, anyway, they don't worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, Guan Jian is those old and poor moves, which makes him compassionate.
This advice is good, almost the pillow comes when I want to sleep.
Immediately said: "Yes." ”
Then he sighed and said, "Lu Xianggong, your third son is also involved?" ”
"yes."
"I heard Zheng Jiazi say that he is very loyal and good."
"Don't dare to be." Lu Yijian's heart is beautiful, well, several generations can be developed, just by virtue of the emperor's words, Hugh said that 10,000 yuan is not a thousand gold? Two thousand gold is also worth it.
Zhao Zhen looked at this letter again, Zhang Fangping, yes, and said: "Yan Duzhi, go and call that Zhang Fangping to see you." ”
It's a talent, and Zhao Zhen likes it.
After a long time, Zhang Fangping was brought in, and his bearing was also very good, this person had a kind of chivalrous spirit, so when he saw Zhao Zhen, he was slightly restrained at first, and then quickly relaxed and talked eloquently. Zhao Zhen was even happier when he saw his bearing, and took the letter and said, "Zhang Fangping, I like your recital very much." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister is ashamed, the first discussion was not the minister, but Zheng Xingyuan, and the minister said some truths about the Qi family, and then discussed in the inn for nearly two days. However, he excused himself on the pretext that he was young and inexperienced. That's what made the minister come forward. ”
But Zhang Fangping also has the ability to run. Change Zheng Lang's lazy surname, may not do as well as him. Therefore, Zhao Zhen thought for a while and said, "You are also very good." ”
I'm glad to have met another talent.
Talent is really ...... Many. It seems to be a good thing, but Zhao Zhen, can you digest so many talents who are very good?
Zhao Zhen looked outside the palace again, thinking of Zheng Lang, and a strange feeling surged in his heart, this is a good minister, seeing his worries, he immediately quietly resolved it for himself, but he didn't take credit, except for the beginning, and then he didn't even show his face, so that he was virtuous to Zhang Fangping. But what did he ask for from himself all along? Don't even want a reward!
Thinking of this, I really wanted to immediately issue an edict to let Zheng Lang enter the palace and reward a few words, but finally held back, and said to Zhang Fangping: "Do it well, a few days ago, Zheng Xingyuan admonished me, the country employs people, not only to use talents, but also to investigate and grind, and to be virtuous and talented, you have done a good job." This session of scholars has done very well, and all the secretaries will be the pillars of the country in the future. ”
"Your Majesty, the minister often hears the provincial yuan praise His Majesty is the first benevolent monarch in the ages, and the minister obeys it today, so that the minister will not hesitate to smear His Majesty's liver and brain." is still a young man, seeing the little emperor so gentle and comforting him, Zhang Fangping was full of emotion, and bowed down and said.
"I deserve the title of the first benevolence of the ages, but I know your loyalty." Zhao Zhen let the first Renjun of the ages praise his little face, rubbed his hands embarrassedly, and helped Zhang Fangping up.
Anyway, I was very moved, and I saw a talent, a future loyal minister, and when Zhao Zhen was emotional, Yan Wenying trotted in and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Fan Si Envoy forcibly ordered Zheng Shengyuan's two students, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang, to be imprisoned in Kaifeng Mansion. ”
"Why did you get caught again?" Zhao Zhenmeng, first he and his adoptive mother caught the teacher, and this time the minister caught the student!
