Chapter 057: Unhappy Breakup
The blue water pond, the bluestone base, the grass-colored garden, the spring curtain has not been revealed, Yang Yi followed Li Qingchen, all the way to the flower hall of the second entrance, the two of them on the road one after the other, without saying a word, the subordinates of the Li Mansion have given Li Qingchen a gift, but they don't know how to greet Yang Yi, a guest who does not stay.
"Aung is back!" A purple-clothed girl flashed out of the flower hall, and when she saw Li Qingchen, she bowed down.
"Get up, pity!" Li Qingchen probably loves this granddaughter very much, and his voice can't help revealing the kindness of the elder, it is twilight at this moment, the sunset has sunk, and there is only a wisp of light ochre and light green in the sky, and when the girl sees Yang Yi who is following behind, she can't help but exclaim: "Fourth brother, why are you here......"
Probably after coming back to her senses, she felt that it was very bad to ask such a question, so she hurriedly changed her words and said: "Fourth brother, it's good that you're here, please come into the hall, and the little sister will serve you tea immediately!" ”
Looking at the look of surprise on her face, Yang Yi felt a lot of emotion in her heart, maybe she was not bad, but she watched her eldest brother insult her mother and relatives always difficult to erase in Yang Yi's heart, maybe this is the so-called first impression, it is difficult to change it for a while.
Yang Yi didn't immediately refute her title, but just nodded.
After entering the flower hall, Li Qingchen said lightly: "Find a place to sit by yourself!" ”
From Li Qingchen's point of view, it was already very polite that he could greet him, and the expression on Yang Yi's face did not change at all, and he replied calmly: "Thank you Li Shangshu, in front of Li Shangshu, there is no place for juniors to sit." ”
Li Qingchen glanced at him and didn't speak again, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly fell silent, and the girl who followed the hall saw that it was wrong, and suddenly smiled and said: "Fourth brother, we are all a family, Ah Weng will let you sit down!" In the past, I was wrong, you can beat me, scold me, fourth brother, don't treat Ah Weng like this. ”
"As I said, there is no need to mention the past, there is no relationship between our two families from now on, and you don't need to be so polite to me."
When Li Qingchen heard Yang Yi's words, a burst of anger surged up, and he reprimanded loudly: "Evil barrier, do you want to be angry with me?" Don't think that you are great if you take the top prize, this officialdom is dangerous, how much do you know, your wings are hard, right, when I can't clean you up? ”
"Ah Weng, don't be angry, it used to be me and my eldest brother were not good, Ah Weng will punish his granddaughter if he wants to punish him, fourth brother, he ...... It's us who are sorry for the fourth brother! ”
"Li'er, it's none of your business, you go and call me that unfinished thing!"
The girl looked at this and that, and looked worried, but she did not dare to disobey her father, so she had to go away.
Only Li Qingchen and Yang Yi were left in the hall, and no one spoke for a while, and after a while Li Qingchen sighed: "Shiro, I know what your mother and son have suffered, let it pass the past, we are always a family!" Don't make any more noise, lest you show outsiders a joke. ”
Yang Yi was silent, he was thinking about how to deal with it, so as not to hurt the old man in front of him too much, speaking from his heart, Yang Yi was not disgusted with Li Qingchen, on the contrary, Yang Yi admired his character, but this could not be a reason for him to return to the Li family.
He was about to speak, Li Kaizhi, the grandson of the Li family, walked into the hall with a panicked face, and when he saw Yang Yi standing in the hall, he looked flustered, stepped forward and pulled his robe, knelt in front of Li Qingchen, and said: "Ah Weng, grandson asks you for peace!" ”
He bowed, and just as he wanted to get up, Li Qingchen suddenly shouted: "What is not a weapon, who made you get up, kneel for me!" ”
At this moment, an old woman about sixty years old was helped into the hall by Li Li'er, she first looked Yang Yi up and down, snorted coldly and walked to the side of the hall and sat down, and then said slowly: "Zhi'er, don't be afraid, get up, there is a grandmother here, I'll see who can do something to you?" ”
Li Qingchen was even more angry, pointing at the old woman and scolding: "You! I'm angry with me, all this unsuccessful thing has been ruined by you, you look at what he has become, more than twenty people, he knows how to eat, drink and have fun every day, and he can't even pass the state test, and my Li family's face is about to be lost by this evil obstacle! There's nothing to do with you here, you can go back to the backyard for me! ”
"Wow! For a wild boy who came from nowhere, you scolded the whole family, and I didn't even let go of the old body, and only a few days after returning to the dynasty to be a scholar, you can stand you! ”
The old woman was not afraid of Li Qingchen's scolding, and immediately returned the favor, so angry that Li Qingchen's whole body trembled, Li Li'er went up to give him a good breath, and begged this and that incoherently: "Grandmother...... Ah Weng, don't fight, okay! ”…,
Yang Yi looked at this family, his brows also frowned, and the idea of never returning to the Li family became extremely firm, with the heart of this old woman, even Li Qingchen did not pay attention to it, if his mother entered this family, life would be extremely miserable. He didn't even bother to look at the family's face anymore, and bowed to Li Qingchen and said, "Thank you Li Shangshu for your kind invitation, Li Shangshu has housework to deal with, and the junior will leave!" ”
"Wait!"
Li Qingchen and the old woman called out almost at the same time, and before Yang Yi could turn around, the old woman preemptively said, "You are the son of the slut, right?" Seeing the old body, he still dared to stand, it was really rude and rude, uneducated, even if he picked up a champion? You kneel for me too! The old body will teach you how to be a person today! ”
Yang Yi slowly straightened up and stared coldly at the old woman, if she only scolded herself, for the sake of her age, Yang Yi might not care about her, just as she was farting, but she should never scold her mother.
Yang Yi's eyes were like a knife, everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel a chill when they saw it, Yang Yi stepped forward step by step, approached the old woman, looked down at her, and then said gloomily: "What are you!" If you want me to kneel to you, wait for the smoke from your Han family's ancestral grave! is a lot older, and you only know how to do whatever you want with the power of your mother's family, you are a slut who doesn't even have a brain! Try it again if you dare to insult my mother today! ”
The old woman was forced to look at Yang Yi, and her cold words made her shrink back, and everyone in the hall was shocked by Yang Yi's words, Yang Yi didn't care how they reacted, turned around and gave Li Qingchen a wave, and then brushed his sleeves away.
"It's the other way around! It's the other way around! Look at this evil animal, he dared to threaten the old man, it was a big rebellion, such a person actually let him get the top prize, what is the reason? What is the reason of heaven...... cough cough ...... "Yang Yi walked out of the flower hall, and after walking more than ten steps away, he heard the old woman's angry voice coming from the hall, Yang Yi didn't bother to pay attention to the old pious woman, and walked out of the Li Mansion with vigor.
In order to fight for his mother's breath, Yang Yi spent 30,000 yuan in Jingmingfang the next day to buy a mansion that was more luxurious than the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Rites.
Wealth does not return to the hometown, such as clothes and brocade at night.
The south of the Yangtze River is good, the scenery is old and familiar, the sunrise river flowers are red, and the river water is as green as blue in spring. Yang Yi and Qin Zigui went back to their hometown in the same boat, crossed the Taihu Lake, the plains on both sides of the strait were thousands of miles, the green mountains were faintly green and the water was far away, and it was always pleasant to enjoy, but the two people sitting on the bow of the boat had a feeling of being close to home, both joy and inexplicable apprehension.
At this moment, Yang Yi realized that his feelings for his mother Yang were by no means just an obligation to help Li Yi support his relatives, and unconsciously, Yang Yi had already regarded that weak woman as his own mother. Thinking of the scene when she entered Beijing, she was afraid that she was looking forward to the door every day during this time!
The mother of the child is worried, and the tea and rice are not emaciated. At this moment, Yang Yi deeply felt that he was a leaf falling from Yang's body, even if it drifted far away with the wind, the roots were always there.
On the boat, Yang Yi and the others spoke less, and the champion returned to his hometown with an official guard of honor, which was a kind of routine of the imperial court, expressing the imperial court's emphasis on the imperial examination and talents.
Outside Huzhou City, an ordinary small boat leaned against the shore to avoid Yang Yi's official boat, and when the official boat passed, a slightly chubby man on the boat walked out of the bow of the boat, he was in his thirties, dressed in a silk shirt, looking like a rich businessman who traveled to and from various places to make a living.
"Twelve Lang, I didn't expect us to meet Zhuangyuanlang here, it's a coincidence!"
As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, a man in his twenties came out of the cabin, he was also dressed as a businessman, looked at Yang Yi's ship, and said with a heavy gaze: "Huang shopkeeper, let's go up and take a look, Ke'er's matter has no clue so far, the more I think about it, the more I feel that this person is suspicious, it is not easy to make a move in Beijing, when we get to the ground in Jiangnan, let's just get him over, and it will be clear as soon as we ask about the matter." ”
The Huang shopkeeper in the mouth of Twelve Lang is Huang Dan, and his identity in Beijing is a silk merchant, he muttered for a while: "It's good to get someone over and ask, but if Ke'er really falls into his hands, it is equivalent to saying that this person is deeply hidden, and there is an official mission to accompany him, I am afraid that you and I will not be able to, so let's contact the brothers on the ground in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and we will do his vote cleanly." ”…,
The boat was far away from Yang Yi's official ship, and after the two returned to the cabin, they discussed it carefully, and the contact between the Maitreya disciples had a set of codes that outsiders could not know.
For a time, the network of the Maitreya Sect in Jiangnan was quickly mobilized, although the Suzhou and Hangzhou areas were not the focus of their business, but the power was far more than that of the capital, and from this moment on, Yang Yi's every move almost fell in the eyes of the Maitreya Sect.
In the evening, Yang Yi's official ship entered the city of Hangzhou, docked on the dock, the accompanying officials immediately put on the guard of honor, Yang Yi and Qin Zigui put on the brand-new official robes, Zhizhou Lu Xiyu, the new Qiantang County Governor Meng Zhaonian also wore neat official uniforms, with three classes of officials came to the wharf to greet, the wharf has already been made of colorful silk, and invited people to sing and dance, the scene is extremely grand and warm.
Thousands of people of Hangzhou came around the wharf, this time the reputation of Qiantang County is even more famous, the champion and Tanhua are out of Qiantang County, which is the same as the honor of the people of Qiantang, where to go in the future, when it comes to Qiantang County, people will look up to it, praise Qiantang people for their outstanding spirits, and the style of writing is prosperous.
As magistrates, they certainly have to attach great importance to such a grand event in Qiantang, which can definitely be regarded as their greatest political achievement in office, which shows that they have made remarkable achievements in emphasizing culture and revitalizing religion and changing customs.
Therefore, Lu Xiyu and the others made the welcoming scene so grand, not necessarily how much they really value Yang Yi and the others, perhaps, it is more for their 'political achievements' to show off.
After Yang Yi and Qin Zigui went ashore, they first exchanged greetings with Lu Xiyu, and after seeing the ceremony, they saw their mother Yang walking up by Li Xian, and at this moment their faces were all wet with tears, a handkerchief couldn't wipe it, and the cheeks that had just been wiped were like pearls with broken threads.
"Son! My son, ......" After saying these two sentences, Yang couldn't cry again, looking at her thin cheeks, tears flowing, Yang Yi's seven-foot man was short, knelt down, and solemnly kowtowed to Yang, Yang Yi can not kneel to the sky, not kneel to the ground, but at this moment he is willing to kneel down in front of thousands of people for this weak mother, two lives, this is the first time he knelt for someone, not for anything else, just for the thick maternal love that can't be dissolved!
"Get up, get up, get up!"
"Mother, the child is back!" Yang Yi insisted on kowtowing to her before getting up, and helped Yang to comfort: "Don't cry, don't hurt your body, the child finally lived up to her mother's expectations, and gave the champion to her mother!" ”
Yang smiled, but on that smiling face, the tears continued, and countless people in the periphery looked at the mother and son, silently, Yang Yi turned around and waved to the people in the periphery, said a word of thanks, and then turned around and hugged Yang to the horse.
"What am I doing, son!" Yang's voice was a little panicked.
Yang Yi helped her by the horse, and said with a smile: "Mother's kindness for many years, the child is difficult to repay in this life, mother, please sit down, let the child come to lead the horse for you!" ”
In the festive sound of gongs and drums, Yang Yi led the horse, Yang kept wiping tears on the horse, all the way to his home in the west of the city, countless people along the way to watch, Yang Yi was so high-profile this time, is to give all the glory to this mother who is the outer room!
In the past, because of that unsightly identity, many people looked down on the Yang family, I don't know how many people looked at her, she rarely even went to the neighbor's house, and this situation did not change until Li Yi passed the state exam at the age of fourteen.
And this time, wearing saffron, riding a big horse, and returning home with glory is no longer the champion, but the champion's mother. The people on the street watched and admired it, and Yang listened to the congratulatory sound on the side of the road, feeling both endless joy and embarrassment.
"Mother, don't cry, look, the people all over the city are looking at you! Child, I am proud to have a mother like you! ”
Yang finally stopped his tears, bowed his head and said to Yang Yi: "Silly boy, you are the pride of your mother!" Son, let my mother come down, my mother is not sure to sit on this horse......"
Being watched by countless people, the Yang family felt more and more embarrassed, Yang Yi raised his head and smiled: "Mother, don't care about others, just look at your son!" Did the mother see the child glowing all over? ”
"What light?"
"Isn't the child a Wenqu star! Naturally, there must be light in the body! ”
"You monkey baby, clean nonsense......"
