Chapter 80: In the City of Gusu

On this day, the weather was fine, and several people got up early in the morning and rushed to Suzhou City.

Heaven on earth, Wu Yin is good, and he is a rich Jiangnan.

In the most prestigious Sujin Tianyi Workshop in Suzhou City, the fabric style and color style are no less than the Ni Shang Clothing Workshop in Beijing.

Mrs. Tan looks at this and that, the color of this material is good, the texture of that material is good, and the material looks good with her pomegranate skirt.

I picked six or seven in total, and I was a little embarrassed to make so many clothes at once, more than my daughter and honeysuckle combined, and I was hesitating, not knowing which ones to put down.

The guy shouted on the side: "Mrs. Tan, these materials are like specially prepared for you, others can't wear this look like you at all, how many people can be as beautiful as Mrs. You, if you don't want it, it will be a waste to give these materials to others." You are an old customer on my side, and we will give you a discount. β€œ

Tan Jun saw that she was stroking the fabrics, and put down any of them as if she was going to cut her flesh, and said: "You just came back, and the clothes outside are not suitable for us, so it's rare to see them, so let's make a few more!" I won't be able to meet it next time. ”

When Mrs. Tan heard her husband's words, she immediately smiled and said that these materials were all available.

Tan Yin snickered on the side, how can her mother play this trick for so many years, and what she can't understand is that her father has been pretending not to know to play with her.

......

After measuring the size and choosing the fabric style, Tan Yin couldn't wait to drag everyone to the garden of Zhang Ge's hometown.

Liusi Garden is built after the old Zhang Ge returned to his hometown, take the meaning of retaining the sage, how can the people be so literate, as long as they mention the old courtyard of Zhang Ge, they will know.

Revisiting the old place, Tan Yin naturally felt a little happy.

Tan Jun asked, "How does this courtyard compare to Changchun Garden?" ”

"It's better in terms of literature, it's the old house of the pavilion, but the scenery is still monotonous than Changchun Garden." Tan Yin replied quite objectively.

Tan Jun nodded and said, "In the end, it's different to open your eyes, you always said that the Reflection Garden is the best garden in the world." ”

Tan Yin smiled a little embarrassedly.

Tan Jun saw her daughter go out, although she experienced a lot of wind and rain, she also took off a lot of childishness, "I heard that Gu Zhijun's Sanmou Garden is the most beautiful garden in the south of the Yangtze River. Spring is the most beautiful, and autumn is also unique, so I want to see it if I have the chance. ”

Tan Yin thought of Gu Zhijun, the deserter who ran faster than a rabbit......

Tan Jun looked at her face, shook his head and said, "You! Sometimes the burden of shaving the head is hot, and if you don't eat mutton, you get into a commotion. ”

Tan Yin was a little dumbfounded, "I also know in my heart that he didn't make any big mistakes, doesn't he just regret it!" I can understand it, but this person actually sent Yanya with a letter, do you say that he is not responsible! ”

"Maybe I don't know how to face it, Gu Zhijun is still reckless, he comes and goes quickly, Zhao Xu won't be like this."

"Zhao Xu, that master!" Thinking of Zhao Xu's precarious appearance, acting cautiously and cautiously, Tan Yin pursed her lips, "Then this thing won't even happen." ”

......

At noon, the family went to Lijiazha Noodle Soup House.

Tan Yin loves his braised pork ribs noodles and soup dumplings the most, and she is always haunted by dreams in Hangzhou and Shangjing.

Several people asked for three large soup dumplings and several bowls of noodles, Tan Jun likes his pork liver noodles, Mrs. Tan only needs a small bowl of fried somen noodles for her slim figure, Honeysuckle loves large intestine noodles the most, and Tan Yin even asked for double pork ribs.

Tan Yin ate so much that she ate eight small soup dumplings, and there was no soup left over the pork ribs noodles.

"The girl has to eat more than when she was in Beijing, in the end, we are here to support people." Honeysuckle said with a smile, picked up the big fat intestine and stuffed it into his mouth, it was really chewy!

Mrs. Tan chewed carefully and slowly, eating noodles one by one. Tan Jun saw a few mouthfuls of joy in the family, and ate his pork liver with a smile.

The restaurant is full of people and has always been a place where information comes and goes.

No, there are mountains on the next few tables.

At the table on the left sat two middle-aged men, one with a thin appearance and a mustache, and the other with a Chinese face and a thick figure.

Bazihu said mysteriously: "You heard it! There may be changes in the northwest! ”

"What's the situation?" Guozi asked with a face.

Bazi Hu lowered his voice and said: "Great Xia suddenly increased tens of thousands of troops in the border with Dazhao, and I heard that the Marquis of Zhenbei has returned to the Northwest Army. ”

Guozi face was puzzled: "Why is this, could it be that I heard about His Majesty's body...... I've heard that the whole of Great Xia was extremely indignant about the defeat to Dazhao early last year. The second prince completely withdrew from the battle for the throne because of this defeat, and the fourth prince was registered as the crown prince. ”

Bazi Hu showed a look of knowing everything, "But the other princes in the court are not convinced by him, and they have been fighting openly and secretly, and it is even rumored in private that if the four princes send troops, they may not win." He is in charge of the Iron Harrier Army, the elite cavalry of Great Xia, and is in need of a victory to block the mouth of Youyou and defend his position as prince. ”

Guozi's face frowned, and his face was engraved with worries about the country and the people, "In this way, will the flames of war that have been finally quelled be rekindled again!" And the people will suffer again. ”

He shook his head a little regretfully, "Who said it wasn't!" If Da Zhao wins, it's fine, if he loses, it's worse than before, it's better to agree to Da Xia's request at the beginning of last year. ”

"You can't say that, didn't Zhenbei Hou win a big victory last year! The strength of the Northwest Army is not the same as in the past, and we are not afraid of them now. The East Palace has mastered the government, and even if Your Majesty has any accidents, there will be no big fluctuations in our court. Guozi face disagreed.

Bazi Hu was so inspired by the face of the national character, and his confidence seemed to be enough, "Brother Ren is right, I have had a total of five wars against Daxia in the past 70 years, and there is only one victory, I hope that the Marquis of Zhenbei can be like Wei Huo and reincarnate and bless me with peace in Dazhao." Yang Xueyuan, like Wei Qinghuo's illness, happens to be the ...... of the Supreme People"

The mustache makes a meaningful look. Rao knew these rumors, but Tan Yin was very disgusted to hear this kind of chasing after the wind and shadows.

As a scholar, Tan Jun naturally cares about the world's major affairs, and listens attentively to the conversation between the two people at the next table.

Tan Yin looked at his father, and Tan Jun said with disdain: "These people are afraid of the northerners like tigers, and they are afraid at the slightest disturbance, and they think about how to kneel and beg for mercy all day long." ”

"If Da Xia really wants to start a war with Da Zhao, he will not only have tens of thousands of soldiers, but he should first explore the situation, and I don't know what variables will happen next."

Tan Yin remembered Yang Che's words before leaving Beijing, as well as his last disappearing figure from sight, remembering his care and help to herself, and hoped that he would be safe.

On the table to the north sat three scholars, uniformly dressed, who seemed to be scholars from a certain academy. The three of them sat in the north, east, and west, and Tan Yin and the others could just have an unobstructed view from the south.

Tan Jun whispered, "It's the Supreme Academy." ”

Zhishan Academy is second to none in Gusu City, and almost every class has a high school scholar, and there has been a champion.

There are several people from this college in the second and third grades this year. A scholar like Li Zheng, who was born in a county or township, can be said to be a rare scholar, and he may not be able to produce one in a few decades.

The scholar on the east side is of moderate stature, wears a pair of glasses, doesn't talk much, and looks a little dull, and sure enough, the nerd is also.

The scholar on the west side looked the youngest, his eyes turned quickly, he was quite flexible, and he was very quick to do the work of serving tea and pouring water, and he kept staring at the scholar in the middle.

The scholar on the north side is the tallest, handsome, and should be the leader of the three, only to see him pointing out the country and scolding Fang Xuan, and the other two keep nodding in agreement, quite a bit of self-sacrificing spirit.

The little scholar complimented the leader and said: "If it weren't for Brother Ren's mother's ill health, you would have been on the list of Jinshi today, what a pity!" ”

The leader said modestly: "Where, where?" He spoke modestly, but his expression was quite complacent.

The little scholar sighed, and his head shook from left to right, "Brother Ren doesn't have to be too humble, even the scholars who come out of Qingsong Academy in what township under the Wujiang River can go to high school, not to mention my Zhishan Academy." ”

These famous scholars in Gusu City are all above the top, and ordinary people don't pay attention to them, even the officials let them score three points, who knows if it will be folded in their hands in the future, which fuels this atmosphere.

They have to comment on everything and people, and the literati are light, and basically there is nothing good to say.

Tan Yin didn't like these two people pretending to be pretending, seeing that they were quite disdainful of Qingsong Academy, and even more uneven, she turned her head to look at her father, Tan Jun was so unconventional that he still listened to everyone with great interest.

The nerd took over and said, "I heard that Tan Shanchang, the head of Qingsong Academy, is quite talented, and Li Zheng, who is on the list this year, is really outstanding. ”

Someone finally said something fair.

The little scholar looked disapproving, "You don't know this, the small academy has no support." Have you heard that this Li has been given any official position? It's just an eight-rank head of the Ministry of Rites, and the worst Jinshi position of the three major academies in Gusu is also a seven-rank position. ”

Although Tan Jun didn't show it on his face, he sighed in his heart.

Tan Yin remembered Li Zheng's exhaustion and running around when he was in Beijing, and he faced Xu Linhai when he was in the bookstore, lamenting that he was the pride of the sky. also lamented that Zhao Xu was born in a family, and there were many battles behind him.

And he has no support and support, he can only use his talent as a weight to join high-ranking officials, Li Zheng's mother is right, she really does not have any help for his future.

How can he really empathize with his hard work, even if he said to his father that he didn't complain about him, but in fact, he has always complained and regretted him in his heart, and his father is right, everyone's choice is different.

It's just that I don't know why it's from the eighth grade, it doesn't seem very good to listen to what these people say, didn't Wang Shilang carry it? It's just that it's no longer about me.

……

At night, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, as if it were day.

Tan Jun walked out of the courtyard gate and saw his daughter facing a pool of lotus flowers, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Tan Jun walked up to her daughter, looked at her bright face, and asked, "But are you thinking about the daytime?" ”

Tan Yin nodded, "My daughter is thinking, it's really difficult to understand a person." I have always thought that Li Zheng is a good reader, a capable person, and he will never worry about the future. ”

"After knowing that he was admitted to the Jinshi, he always thought that his merits had been completed, far exceeding his initial expectations. Although I knew that it was difficult for him, I kept persuading him to take a long-term view. Now that I think about it, how could he be willing to be subordinate from the beginning. ”

Tan Jun looked at her daughter's serious thinking and smiled: "My Yin'er has grown up and knows how to consider problems from other people's perspectives. ”

Tan Yin received her father's commendation and was a little embarrassed, "Dad, when my daughter went out, she had a lot of doubts, some of which she could understand, and some of whom she couldn't understand. ”

Tan Jun sighed: "Don't worry, you'll understand slowly." ”

Tan Yin smiled and nodded.

Tan Jun touched his daughter's head, thought of his proud protΓ©gΓ©, and sighed: "Although everyone has their own way to go, the key is only one or two steps. Marrying a wife and marrying a husband is the most critical step in this, and I don't know if Li Zheng will regret it in the future. ”

When Tan Yin heard this, tears couldn't stop flowing, and she threw herself on her father's chest and choked silently.

After a while, she straightened up and touched her hand a few times to calm down.

Tan Yin pondered for a moment and said, "By the way, Yin'er, I heard from your mother that you are familiar with Yang Che." You have saved him, and he has helped you a lot, and he seems to take good care and care of you. ”

Tan Yin knew that her father would not mention this person for no reason, so she pondered: "It's also a coincidence, but I have only met him a few times, and I don't have a deep friendship." ”

"He once said that he wanted to repay me for saving my life, and then he took a lot of care of me, just to thank me."

Tan Yin didn't want to worry her parents, thinking that she would never see her again in the future, so she deliberately concealed Yang Che's words before leaving, maybe his words were just to see her pitiful at that time, just a momentary remark.

Tan Jun saw that his daughter's expression did not seem to be fake, so he put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Your mother is still worried that he is interested in you." ”

Tan Yin didn't know how to answer, so she could only smile awkwardly.

Seeing her daughter's embarrassed expression, Tan Yin said solemnly: "The Jokhang God of War is famous all over the world, and his people are strategic, brave and resolute, he is a rare general, and his appearance is even more prestigious. As the people of Jokhang, we naturally burn incense to worship the Buddha, respect and love. ”

"It's just that his person has experienced complexity, and he is in the core of Dazhao, and there are many rumors about his temperament, and I'm afraid it's not entirely groundless."

He and Donggong have also been rumored. The lives of these wealthy and powerful people are beyond the imagination of ordinary people like us. It doesn't matter if you don't have a relationship in the future, if you meet you, try to avoid it. ”

Tan Yin blushed and said, "No matter how stupid and stupid my daughter is, she won't make such a fool." ”

Tan Jun nodded with satisfaction.

The moon is the hometown of Ming, and this pool of lotus flowers makes people sober and reassuring.
