Chapter 4 The people in Wuyi Lane

The hot kang was very warm, Du Shi and Xiaoman's wind cold was almost cured without medicine, and Xie Yi's body was completely recovered.

When I woke up in the morning, a part of my body rose high in the middle, propping up the thin quilt up a small hill.

Xie Yi sighed in his heart, he had heard in his previous life that sleeping on a hot kang is easy to catch fire, and sure enough, it is true! In addition, there is a beautiful woman next to her, and she can only look at it but can't eat it, so it's strange that this fire doesn't go up.

Xie Yi turned his head and found that the Du family beside him was gone, leaving only the neatly folded futon and his sister Xiaoman, who was still asleep.

The little girl's sleep is surprisingly good, except for the urine on the third watch, she doesn't cry, she doesn't wet the bed, and she doesn't get up in the morning.

Well-behaved, considerate, sensible, lovable, there is a sister like this, what more can a husband ask for!

As for my sister-in-law Du Shi, she has disappeared and doesn't know where to go. Xie Yi got up from the kang and decided to cook some breakfast and surprise her when her sister-in-law returned.

But......

When he opened the lid of the rice cylinder, it was empty, Xie Yi was dumbfounded, and he ran out of food?

In his previous life, he was born in an era of peace and prosperity, with no worries about food and clothing, and had no concept of food shortage, but when he first came to Datang, he encountered a food crisis.

It's scary, it's terrible, it's not fun......

But life still has to be lived, you can't let the two women in the family go hungry, as the man in charge, he has the responsibility and obligation to buy rice to support the family.

However, before Xie Yi went out, Du Shi came back, carrying a small cloth bag in his hand, which was heavy, as if it was food.

Seeing Xie Yi, Du Shi smiled and said, "I sold the woven silk cloth early and bought a bucket of rice...... It's just that it seems that Guanzhong has suffered a big drought this year, and the government has wantonly transported grain from Jianghuai to Chang'an, so the price of rice has also risen a little, and the number of people bought is less......"

Belch......

Jianghuai is the land of fish and rice, but because of the drought in Guanzhong, the price of grain has risen, which is really ...... What do you say? In an instant, the first impression of the capital of the Tang Empire was discounted.

The price of rice has risen, life has become more difficult, and it is more and more necessary to make money to support the family.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go out to Huaiyang City later to see if I can find a job or a way to make money......

Xie Yi's voice landed, and Du Shi did not praise and support with satisfaction, but said righteously: "San Lang, don't do these lowly things......

"Something low?" Xie Yi was suddenly full of black lines, very surprised, how could Du Shi have such an attitude? Thinking about it carefully, in ancient times, it was important to pay attention to agriculture and industry and commerce, and it seems that it is indeed impossible to be a craftsman or a businessman.

It's just that it's not what it used to be, the Xie family is already so far, if you don't put down your body, don't you have to starve to death? Du's words may be reasonable, but he is also used to Xie Yi, and the lawlessness of the former prodigal son is mostly related to her connivance.

Xie Yi couldn't cry or laugh, and said softly: "Sister-in-law, the situation at home is different from the past, although I was born to be useful, and I will come back when my daughter is gone, but now I really have to find some ways to make money and make a living." ”

Du Shi's eyes lit up, and he asked in surprise: "I was born to be useful, and I will come back after my daughter is gone, is this a verse?" ”

"Uh, yes......"

"Yes, you and your second brother used to... Lang reads together, and he can indeed compose some poems. Without waiting for Xie Yi to say more, Du Shi said to himself: "San Lang, I see that you are different from the past, it seems that you have changed your mind, and your parents must be pleased in the spirit of heaven, since this is the case, you can study hard at home, and I have my livelihood." ”

"Study, do you want to be admitted to the Jinshi?" is very familiar with the bridge, but Xie Yi was a little dumbfounded, and said suspiciously, "There are very few Jinshi admissions in Datang, and almost all of them are children of high-ranking nobles, where does a poor boy like me who has no name and no way to have a chance?" ”

"San Lang, I heard in the bazaar this morning that the new Chenzhou Assassin Shi is the prince of the dynasty and has a prominent position...... If you have to write good poems, you can go to the Assassin's Mansion to write poems. ”

Du Shi said leisurely: "As for the door, what are you afraid of?" The Xie family was born in the Xie family of Chen County, and they were also in Wuyi Lane back then, so why did they say that they were cold? ”

Chenjun Xie!

It's a great feeling, as if I've heard of it, but I can't remember it for a while. It wasn't until the Du family took the Xie family tree that Xie Yi was surprised to find that he had forgotten his ancestors, which really shouldn't be!

The wild grass and flowers by the Vermilion Bird Bridge, the sunset at the mouth of Wuyi Alley, the swallow in front of Wang Xie Tang in the old days, flew into the homes of ordinary people.

Xie Yi's first reaction was this poem, in which Wang and Xie were the most powerful dignitaries in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the family gatekeeper.

The Wang family is the Wang Dao and Wang Dun families, and the father and son of Wang Xizhi, who has excellent calligraphy, belong to this family; Xie is the Xie An and Xie Xuan families.

As for the origin, it is necessary to start from more than 300 years ago, during the Taiyuan period of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the former Qin Emperor Fu Jian led a large army south. The Eastern Jin Dynasty on the bank of the Bi'an River was greatly shaken, and Xie An, Xie Xuan's uncle and nephew were ordered to meet the enemy.

In 382 A.D., Xie Xuan led 80,000 troops and the million army of the former Qin Emperor Fu Jian fought fiercely in the river, and won a great victory with fewer strikes, so that Fu Jian was in a loud voice, the grass and trees were all soldiers, and he was defeated and left, which is the famous battle of the river in history.

This battle preserved the Han family in the south of the Yangtze River, and Xie An, Xie Xuan's uncle and nephew made great contributions, and the Xie family also rose rapidly and became the top family gate valve in the same place as the Wang family. Since then, the Xie family has produced many talents, such as Xie Lingyun, who is a talented person, who is the direct ancestor of the Xie Yi family.

After the fall of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Southern Dynasty Song Qi Liang Chen, Liu Song Dynasty after the Xie family in the court power became weaker and weaker, and to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Chen County Xie family has long been no longer at its peak, and there are few high-ranking officials in the court.

The descendants of the Xie family were scattered and settled in various places, and Xie Lingyun had a descendant who returned to his ancestral hometown of Chen County, which was Huaiyang and other places in Chenzhou in the Tang Dynasty, and one of them was Xie Yi's family.

Xie Yi smiled, he thought it was just a small family in the countryside, but he didn't want to be a descendant of the Xie family of Chen County, whose ancestors were once in Wuyi Lane.

Although it is not what it used to be, the Chenjun Xie family is a famous family after all, and this identity is still very useful in the Tang Dynasty, which is very particular about family origin.

Du Shi said softly: "Although the family has changed the residence, but you still have the books of the year, you study hard, strive to write good poems, and go to the assassination of the history of the scroll." As long as you don't want to be willful and reckless, and have a good character, as a child of the Xie family of Chenjun, you have a great chance to have a good future. ”

Xie Yi probably knew that the book was a way for scholars to recommend themselves to the powerful. The Tang Dynasty pays attention to the family, and ordinary people, especially those who are not high, go up to the powerful mansion in order to appreciate and recommend their talents, or to become famous, so as to rise to the top.

Of course, the scroll has the meaning of a name in a certain way, and if it is appreciated and recommended by a certain magnate, if the person who submits the scroll becomes a subordinate of his disciples, he must at least follow Jiwei, and the head of the horse is the first to look forward.

The most important way to line the scroll is poetry, Tang poetry is prosperous, up to the emperor and generals, down to the common people Li Shu are happy to read poetry. Therefore, if you can make good poems, you will be famous, and the chance of being appreciated and recommended can be increased by dozens of percentage points.

Writing poetry is a technical job, but it is not difficult for Xie Yi, he remembers some of the 300 Tang poems, and he can make a splash by casually "borrowing" from two famous poems.

Just row scrolls......

This kind of form is similar to the deed of sale, which is not necessarily reliable, Xie Yi is skeptical, and even a little resistant.

Du Shi said: "My father really hoped that the children of the Xie family would be able to study and enter the profession and regain the glory of their ancestors, among the three brothers, your talent is good, and my father has high hopes for you, but you are ...... My father regretted that he was depressed and ended up mainly because of this. Now that you are a prodigal son, if you can study hard and get involved, your father's spirit in heaven will be blind......"

Belch......

When it comes to the question of whether the deceased father can be blind, it is a lot stricter all of a sudden, and the previous behavior of the loser is too unscrupulous, if he ignores the wishes of his father, I am afraid that there will be a suspicion of unfilial piety, and the pressure is very great!

Moreover, in ancient society, there were clear hierarchies of scholars, farmers, and businessmen, and if they did not become officials, they had no status at all, how could they live freely? What's more, there is also the advantage of being born in the Xie family of Chenjun, a famous family.

So, it seems that it is necessary to become an official.

It's just that there are really not many ways to enter the office, not the second generation of officials, there is no hereditary opportunity, and it is even more difficult to start from scratch. Unless he followed Gaozu Li Yuan to raise troops back then, or followed Li Shimin to mutiny in Xuanwumen.

It's a pity that I missed the opportunity to seek two rich and dangerous things, and now I want to enter the office...... Speaking of which, after all, there is still no way around the scroll.

That's it, let's try it!
