Chapter 66: Infiltrating the County School (Asking for a Monthly Pass!) )

Seeing Wang Shuban leave with a sigh, Hong Song said to Fang Yingwu with a slight hesitation: "Could it be that Brother Fang Xian wants to take the opportunity to drill into the camp?" ”

Fang Yingwu does have the intention of taking the opportunity to win a talent spot, after all, no one is sure about the fame exam, but can he answer truthfully like this?

The gentleman is in righteousness, and the villain is in profit, and Fang Yingwu, who has deep feelings, replied: "I am just going to talk about some things with the great master under the orders of the merchant minister." It is related to the current situation of the DPRK and politics, and it is inconvenient to tell others, so please forgive me. ”

Hong Song and Xiang Chengxian both showed a bit of admiration on their faces, and they didn't ask anything more, the major affairs of the court and politics, of course, the two of them can only look up.

By this time it was getting late, and the three of them were back in the city. As the saying goes, in the last life, there are four major irons in life, and Fang Yingwu and the two sons almost have to complete three.

Today, I drank flower wine together, although I was a false alarm, but I was almost punished by the Yamen together, and I was about to become a classmate of the county school, so naturally, unconsciously, the relationship between them went to a higher level.

Hong Xiang's two sons are both county students, and they are also impatient to live in the school hall and be restrained, and it is also inconvenient to live with his wife. So both of them have houses in the city, and they are not far apart.

On the question of who Fang Yingwu will go to live in tonight, the two discussed for a while, and Xiang Chengxian said: "I still expect Brother Fang Xian to gently shake his tongue to convince the cheap, so he must go to me." ”

Hong Song had nothing to say, so he could only respond to the other party: "The eldest woman of the Xiang family is fierce, this trip is not easy, Brother Fang Xian take care!" ”

In this way, Fang Yingwu followed Xiang Chengxian away. When he arrived at home, Xiang Gongzi instructed the servants to clean up the outer courtyard and live in it as a guest room arrangement.

Xiang Gongzi pointed to the wing room and said, "I won't remove the utensils." Keep them all for you. After the next test comes, you continue to live here. You don't have to look elsewhere. ”

Suddenly, Xiang Chengxian quietly stuffed Fang Yingwu with a bag of silver, which contained a few ingots of silver. The portion is not light. Fang Yingwu was frightened: "Such a generous gift, how dare the little brother accept it!" ”

"Silence!" Xiang Gongzi whispered: "You take it first, and you will say that you lent it to me in a while." ”

Fang Yingwu suddenly realized, it turned out that this was Xiang Gongzi's private money, and he wanted to wash it through his hands. Not only do you want to talk about the matchmaker today, do you also have to play the role of money laundering?

Fang Yingwu thanked him. The two went to the main hall again, and Xiang Gongzi went to invite his wife out to meet Fang Yingwu, which can be regarded as a very good expression of the relationship between the two. The so-called good family.

Fang Yingwu and Xiang's lady greeted each other, one called "Fang family brother", and the other called "Xiang family's sister-in-law".

Although he didn't dare to look too closely, he looked at it hastily and saw that this lady of the family looked dignified, her face was like a full moon, her teeth were white and her lips were red, and she was smiling cutely, and she didn't look like a fierce and jealous woman.

Hong Gongzi is a bit exaggerated? Fang Yingwu thought.

Xiang Chengxian stood in the blind corner of his mother's sight, squeezing his eyebrows at Fang Yingwu, suggesting that Fang Yingwu was going to talk about taking a concubine.

Persuading people to marry concubines is such a thing. It is the first time that Fang Yingwu has been a human being for two lives. Let him be eloquent, and he doesn't know where to start for a while. How do you say that?

Under the urging of Xiang Gongzi repeatedly with his eyes, Fang Yingwu had no choice but to bite the bullet and weigh the words and say to Xiang's lady: "I know that there are women who admire Brother Xiang. The love is so pitiful that it becomes lovesick. I can't bear to see his sad life, and I want to be a good person in it. ”

Xiang Gongzi stood behind his own lady. Thumbs up. From here, the angle is very good. It's easy to get sympathy in the first place!

Hearing this, the Xiang lady put away the smiling face of the guests and snorted lightly. "The Fang family brothers are young, are they very skilled in matchmaking?"

Fang Yingwu was embarrassed, some time ago, there were eighteen-way matchmakers from the county and even neighboring counties who took turns to come to the door. Under the influence of ears and eyes, of course, I am familiar with 300 Tang poems, and I can't compose poems and chant them.

Xiang's lady glanced at her husband, and said to the other party: "You scholars, don't seriously study the classics and discuss knowledge, what crooked ways do you think about all day long?" Do the Four Books and the Five Classics teach you to take concubines? ”

Fang Yingwu's mind turned, and he hurriedly argued: "What the sister-in-law of the Xiang family said is good, and "Mencius" has it. "Under the Sentence of the Leaving Lou Chapter": Qi people have a wife and a concubine. is the so-called blessing of Qi people, the sister-in-law of the Xiang family dares to say that saints don't teach people to take concubines? ”

Xiang's lady was stunned, Xiang Gongzi was overjoyed, and gave Fang Yingwu two thumbs up behind him, worthy of being a little genius who is good at interpreting classics. If you study hard, you will become a master in the future!

After staying for a while, the Xiang lady was unconvinced and said: "According to the Fang family's brothers, according to Jingyi, the concubine will have to accept another husband." ”

Before Fang Yingwu could say anything, Xiang Chengxian jumped out first and scolded angrily: "Nonsense! How can there be a daughter and two husbands in the scriptures! ”

Xiang's lady said coldly: "Don't you hear that Zhu Zi wrote a preface to "University", and the preface is cloudy: the two husbands of the Cheng family in Henan. Zhu Zi has said, why can't concubines be like this? ”

No way! Fang Yingwu and Xiang Chengxian secretly vomited three liters of blood. Zhu Zi's original sentence was "Henan Cheng's two husbands", which was truncated by Mrs. Xiang into "Henan Cheng's two husbands", which is really good to truncate!

Xiang Gongzi retorted loudly: "How can you intercept the scriptures so indiscriminately!" ”

Xiang's lady was aggressive: "When you write Bagu essays, don't you often cut off the words and phrases of the scriptures?" Why can't a concubine? ”

This is not wrong, in order to prevent guessing and not repeating, the Bagu essay title often truncates the sentences of the scriptures at will, or then combines them with a preface and a posterior to form a strange and partial topic.

Fang Yingwu quietly wiped his sweat, and it could be concluded that this lady of the clan must also be from a scholarly family, so he was so blocked that he had nothing to say.

Sure enough, it was very difficult to provoke, no wonder Hong Gongzi also returned and couldn't hide, and he didn't know the inside story before he came to be this wronged lobbyist.

So it's better to go with thirty-six plans! Fang Yingwu took advantage of the fact that the two of them were talking, and turned around to leave. Out of the corner of his eye, Xiang Chengxian caught a glimpse of the allied forces he had found planning to flee from the battle, and hurriedly shouted, "Brother Fang Xian, slow down!" ”

Fang Yingwu was helpless, and heard Senior Xiang say to his wife: "You are in charge of the family, just shirk the lack of money in the family, but this is not a problem." Brother Fang Xian is warm, and he is willing to lend ten taels to use, and today he brought all the money! ”

Almost forgetting that there was still this matter, Fang Yingwu had to come back, took out the bag containing silver from his bosom and handed it to Xiang Gongzi - it was the one that Xiang Gongzi had secretly stuffed for him before. And said arrogantly and generously: "Why worry about it, don't be in a hurry to pay it back!" ”

Xiang Gongzi held the bag in his hand and shook it at his wife, "Money is not a problem, what else do you have to say?" ”

"Show the concubine." Xiang's lady stretched out her hand, and Xiang Gongzi handed her the bag.

Mrs. Xiang opened the bag and looked at it a few times, it was really white silver, and gently checked it in her hand, and the weight was indeed about ten taels.

After reading it, she put the bag into her sleeve, glanced at Xiang Gongzi a few times, and suddenly said softly: "Since the husband really wants to take a concubine, then the concubine is willing to be small, and this silver should be considered to buy me!" ”

Fang Yingwu was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but feel a lot of sympathy for Senior Xiang. If you marry this kind of wife, how can you fight. He will die for the rest of his life

Tonight, he Yingwu and Xiang Senior went into battle together, and they were completely defeated! Senior Xiang not only did not convince his wife, but also put ten taels of private money into it, which was really a loss for stealing chickens and rice.

Mrs. Xiang turned to face Fang Yingwu again, and smiled again, "Brother Fang, since you regard your husband as your brother, then the concubine is also your eldest sister-in-law."

Suddenly, I remembered a good family matter, and my sister-in-law wants to refer to it for you here, presumably the little brother will not refute the face of my sister-in-law?

This woman is just a little worse looking. But it doesn't matter, marry a wife and marry virtue, as for the portal, it is definitely worthy of Xie Yuan's mansion."

Fang Yingwu had a bitter face, and said again and again: "Little brother, I just drank and got dizzy, and I can't take care of things, so go down to sleep first, and the two of you will say goodbye." ”

With that, he hurried out of the antechamber. If you don't leave, you'll even have to get in!

The next day, after Fang Yingwu got up and washed, he came to the alley where the small gate on the side of the county school was located. Yesterday, I agreed with Na Wang Shuban to meet here, and then Wang Shuban thought of sending him to the county school.

After waiting for half an hour, I saw Wang Shuban quietly coming over and stuffing him with a set of clothes. "Put on this handyman's short clothes, and let you pretend to be a handyman for a while, so as not to be noticed by others, and it will not be good to cause gossip."

Wang Shu's words are reasonable. This Dao test is not just a county in Chun'an County, I heard that the Great Grandmaster asked the children from Sui'an, a neighboring county in the south, to come over and take the test together, I don't know how many eyes are staring at the vicinity of the county school, you must be careful.

Fang Yingwu had to change into a coarse cloth short coat, and made his hair a little loose, barely hiding people's eyes and ears.

Then as Wang Shuban joined the team to deliver food, he went all the way to the small door in the corner of the county school.

The small door that could only accommodate a single person opened from the inside, but Wang Shuban and the others did not go in, put a few large boxes of vegetables on the steps, and then sent the vegetable miscellaneous servants away, while Wang Shuban and Fang Yingwu retreated to ten steps away and waited.

After that, a few handymen came out of it, carrying the vegetable basket and walking towards the door, Wang Shuban saw that there was no one around, took the opportunity to push Fang Yingwu, and motioned Fang Yingwu to follow.

Fang Yingwu understood, hurriedly took a few steps forward, lifted another vegetable basket, and followed the people in front of him into the county school.

These handymen had probably been dealt with in advance, and none of the other party Yingwu showed the slightest surprise, as if Fang Yingwu was one of them.

In this way, Fang Yingwu blended into the county school that had been used as an examination room. Within the county school, they are all miscellaneous servants and clerks who are allowed to enter but not leave, and they are relatively much looser.

Let Fang Yingwu turn around, and no one will interrogate and inspect. A quarter of an hour later, he found the temporary residence of the Scholar in the back hall.

Guarding outside the door was the official of Tixue, who also went to Huaxi Village with Li Tixue last time. He was startled when he saw Fang Yingwu suddenly appear in front of him.

Fang Yingwu was afraid of extraneous branches, so he preemptively whispered: "Hurry up and report it, and come to see the great master for the matter of the business minister, you are the only one who asks!" ”

The chief opened his mouth, but did not say anything, turned around and went into the public house to report. (To be continued.) )

PS: First update! The second shift is expected to be two or three o'clock in the afternoon.
