Chapter 254: Answering Miss Liu San's question
Not long after, Wu Qing was taken to a house in the east of the city.
Wu Qing looked at this small house, which was completely a small family's residence, and looked at Liu Lingxian with a puzzled face.
Liu Lingxian blushed and said, "Please also sit in the teacher's room." Then he instructed the maidservant, "Xiaolian go and prepare some snacks, and bring the tea set from the west wing." ”
The maidservant Xiaolian agreed, and hurriedly walked towards the back house with broken steps.
Wu Qing looked at a stout jujube tree in the courtyard, and said, "If this tree bears dates, it must be extremely sweet." ”
Liu Lingxian said with a smile: "The teacher is right, it was because of this jujube tree that the student bought this house. ”
Wu Qing was stunned for a moment, the effect of jujube does have the effect of nourishing yin and strengthening the spleen, but he didn't expect this Liu Lingxian to understand medical science, and he couldn't help but be impressed.
Wu Qing didn't dare to talk anymore, he had already realized that this was a very enthusiastic girl, not much better than the northern girl.
When they arrived at the guest room, the guest sat down, and Kuroko naturally stood behind Wu Qing very respectfully.
Liu Lingxian said: "Can this big black brother sit down?" ”
Wu Qing knew that Heizi had a fierce face and two oversized plate axes stuck in his waist, so he always made others feel a little scared, so he ordered: "Heizi, sit down." ”
Heizi smiled and said, "Hehe, it's still the master who feels sorry for me, Miss Liu, thank you very much." With that, he sat down.
"You're welcome!" Liu Lingxian replied softly.
Wu Qing asked, "Why did Miss Liu leave the house?" ”
In Datang, it is generally men who don't want to raise a wild woman or a lover or something, and this is also not allowed by Datang Law Firm. to be reproached by the world. But a woman leaves the house, which seems to make some sense.
Hearing Wu Qing's question, Liu Lingxian smiled bitterly: "I knew that the teacher would ask such a question." Students don't leave their homes to support men. The generations of scholars in the student's family dare to think about it. The student's departure from the house is really unbearable for the family proposers, as well as the nagging of the elder brother and mother. ”
Wu Qing couldn't help laughing, there were still girls who were afraid of proposing, and couldn't help asking: "This man should marry and the woman should marry, but it is a matter of course, why is Miss Liu afraid of marrying?" ”
Liu Lingxian smiled slightly. Stretched out his hand to brush the bangs on his forehead and said, "The teacher also thinks that the male university should be married, and the female university must be married?" ”
Wu Qing was stunned. In a certain respect, this is just a norm formulated by the religion and religion, and it is the root of it. It's still artificially prescribed. It is also necessary for the development of a country. If a country is strong, it must not only be militarily strong, but also have a developed population. It can be said that "men should get married, women should get married" is a law!
"Miss Liu, do you think it's wrong?"
Liu Lingxian fell into contemplation and said: "The "Historical Records" records. The reproduction of Fuxi and Nuwa standardized etiquette, and this was not the case for subsequent generations of emperors. Even the marriage of marriage was written into the law. Students just don't understand that women have to be born and have to have children? If women bear the burden of reproduction, then why is the status of women so low, slaughtered and sold? Teacher, can you solve the students' doubts? ”
Suddenly, Wu Qing was stunned, it seems that Liu Lingxian has indeed studied science in depth, and began to think about the world, and began to use dialectical methods to understand the world, is this wrong or right? For a while, Wu Qing couldn't answer.
At this time, the maid Xiaolian and another maid walked in, one carrying a snack and the other holding a tea set.
Seeing that the dim sum and tea set had arrived, Liu Lingxian smiled slightly and said, "This is a dim sum made by the students, I hope the teacher will not dislike it, taste one or two." ”
Wu Qing looked at the small and delicate snacks and said with a smile: "Just this delicate appearance, you will have an appetite when you look at it, Kuroko, you can taste it too." ”
"Okay, I can't help it!"
Liu Lingxian took the tea set, then put the purple clay pot on the charcoal stove and began to boil water.
Wu Qing saw that this charcoal stove and this tea set were no different from his own, and Wu Qing thought that it must have been passed to his home by Liu Linggu and Liu Zhiji. During his few years at Qingxin Academy, Wu Qing made tea and discussed Taoism with his students, talked freely about the principles of all things, discussed the philosophy of life, and the way of being an official.
Thinking of that leisurely and beautiful time, Wu Qing couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Lingxian, who was boiling water, asked: "Why does the teacher sigh, is it because the students' tea ceremony is shallow?" ”
Wu Qing said with a smile: "There is no superficial difference in the tea ceremony, the difference is in the state of mind, everyone makes tea, and the taste of tea is different, because everyone's mood is different, and the tea taster is the taste." The reason why I sighed was that it reminded me of the days in Qixia Mountain, how leisurely I was, talking freely with the students about the principle of all things, discussing the philosophy of life, and discussing the past and the present, but now, this qiē seems to be far away from me. ”
Wu Qing's words made Liu Lingxian rise infinite yearning, she can imagine that in a season of red leaves, students sit around the teacher, listen to the teacher's lectures, and listen to the teacher talk about the world. What kind of scene is that!
"Miss Liu, the water is boiling!"
"Ah, I'm sorry, teacher!" Liu Lingxian lowered her head and still took out a bag of tea leaves without hurry, then put it in a strainer, rinsed it with boiling water, and then poured it into the purple clay pot, and finally poured in boiling water and covered the pot. Only then did he say: "This is the green spring that the students bought from Yangzhou trustees, and I hope the teacher can like it." ”
After a while, I saw Liu Lingxian shaking the purple clay pot, which was a little different from Wuqing's brewing method, but after a while, when the yellow-green juice flowed from the purple sand pot to the white porcelain tea cup, Wu Qing smelled the rich tea fragrance, which was like Yangzhou's fat powder, which made people intoxicated. Wu Qing didn't drink much tea in his previous life, but in this life, he tasted good tea all over again, and the tea brewed by Liu Lingxian had a strong taste.
Wu Qing picked up the teacup and smelled it, and then drank it in his mouth, not astringent, just like its fragrance, the more he tasted it, the stronger it became. Wu Qing looked at Liu Lingxian, and he suddenly realized that this tea was just like this Liu Lingxian, and this woman was a woman worth savoring slowly, just like her wise eyes.
So the two of them drank tea. Talking about it, it didn't take long for the tea to lead to the original question again, "Men should get married, women should get married", which is right or wrong.
Wu Qing pondered for a moment. I still had to guide the girl on the right track, so I said: "If you look at it from the way of thinking of science, this problem should be divided into two aspects. ”
Liu Lingxian showed a look of curiosity, "Teacher, please speak." ”
Wu Qing said: "First of all, from the perspective of etiquette, men should marry women when they marry, it can be said that this is an ancient ceremony, and then experienced the emperor and the doctor. It was written into the law to ensure that it could be implemented in a standardized manner, so every Ming media marriage was a cumbersome procedure. It takes a long time. In this way, the people should understand that marriage is a very sacred thing. ”
Liu Lingxian obviously listened to it, and then said, "What else? ”
Wu Qing said with a smile: "There is also the nature of human beings, whether it is birds or beasts. There are male and female. All things are divided into yin and yang, and people are divided into men and women, why is this? That's just like the Taoist theory of the harmony of yin and yang. And science believes that this is the physiological needs of male and female, men and women, men will be lonely and lonely, and the same is true for women. When physiological needs are met, people will be happy. In order to make friends, to be an official. in order to do all kinds of meaningful things. Of course, from the perspective of science, everything is not absolute, but relative. ”
Liu Lingxian had a feeling that "absolute" and "relative" are new words in science, and how should this be understood?
Wu Qing estimated the time, looked at Liu Lingxian, who was still pondering, and said: "Miss Liu, Wu has said goodbye, I was going to inspect the market today, and I didn't want to delay here, so I lost my company." ”
"Ah, is the teacher leaving?" Liu Lingxian seemed to be still immersed in the joy of being solved.
Wu Qing nodded, then glanced at the sunspot, signaled, and stepped out of the mansion. Wu Qing saw that there were few people on the street, and couldn't help sighing, although the business of Datang has developed, but the fact is miserable.
I was too late to visit the market anymore, so I had to wait for another day. So he walked towards the Thorn Mansion.
Walking into the mansion, his own servants cleaned up the study and burned the charcoal basin, Wu Qing did not return to the back house, and looked at the copies of the documents sent in the study.
Not long after, a government came to report, and Zhu County of Pei County came to visit.
Wu Qing sneered, some time ago, Yan Ruyu asked Yan Ruyu to check the bribery directory of the county officials in Xuzhou County There is this Zhu County order. But being able to turn himself in first shows that he is not a stupid person.
After a while, Zhu Xianling was taken to the study, and Wu Qing waved back left and right, ordering Zhu Xianling to close the study.
The moment the door closed, Zhu Xian Ling knelt on the ground with a puff, crawled to Wu Qing's bookcase, and kowtowed: "Please assassinate Lord Shi for the crime of the lower officials!" ”
Wu Qing waved his hand impatiently and said, "There is no need to act in a tragic scene, Wu Mou will not eat this set, since he has given you a chance to change his ways, he will naturally not cut off your heads." ”
Na Zhu County Ling sobbed a few times and said, "Assassin Shi, the lower official is recruited from the truth." ”
So Zhu Xianling told him about the bribes he had received during his three years as county magistrate. This Zhu County Order has been in Pei County for three years, and the bribery and corruption have reached 100,000 yuan, which is a shocking figure, of which there are 80,000 yuan in bribes alone, and the rest are the filial piety and looted property below. Moreover, the Lu family and the Fan family in Pei County almost occupy the entire Pei County, like a country within a country.
Wu Qing nodded, and then said: "Okay, your confession is still relatively clear, I tell you the truth, you didn't confess, you have a hundred acres of fertile land in Pei County, a manor, three mansions, and two mansions each have a woman, one is the sister of Chunhong Mansion, and the other is a pretty widow." Am I right? ”
In an instant, Zhu Xianling sweated like rain, standing in place in a daze, trembling, he didn't expect that Thorn Shi would know his details so well. He knew he was going to die.
Wu Qing smiled: "What's the matter? Don't cry? Hmph, give you a way to live, 100,000 yuan of money, you leave 10,000 yuan, and hand over the rest to the treasury, but you have to take down the Lu family and the Fan family and a few other big households for me! Do you understand? Get out of here! ”
Zhu Xianling trembled for a while, hurriedly bowed and saluted, and then withdrew from the study, until he came out of the Assassin's Mansion, he realized that sweat soaked his back. But he was able to save his life, and this time he didn't go in vain. (To be continued......)
