Wen Zhesang and the others returned to Taoli School again, just in time for the students to play between classes. A few sturdy children pushed and shoved and looked under the window, thinking that they were well hidden, but in fact they had already been discovered.

Xie Yikou saw that Wen Zhesang didn't mind, and he also turned a blind eye as if he didn't see it. Zeng Fuzi smiled at the two, picked up the ring ruler and slapped it on the window lattice, "What are you messing about, you will memorize the content of today's teaching?" ”

"No, no, the master is angry, let's go and endorse it!"

The little teenagers giggled and laughed, you pushed me, I pushed you and ran away.

Zeng Fuzi put away his serious expression and said helplessly: "It's all naughty boys, but fortunately, they have a bright brain, and if they read well, there will always be a time to emerge in the future." ”

He turned around and sat down, and talked about Master Wei again, "The old man that the adults said also expected that Mr. Wei was born in a man, and his knowledge was unconvinced by everyone in the county, and he was also notoriously arrogant. ”

Wen Zhisang was a little surprised, "It turned out to be a lifter, so in this way, I snubbed him." ”

But if that "lifter" is worthy of respect, how could he let the porter speak coldly to her? This really made Wen Zhesang puzzled. She thought that everything she had done since coming to Qingfeng County was not selfish, and her contact with Master Wei was the first time today - let alone not even seeing Master Wei in person.

But looking at the reaction of the concierge, it seems that Master Wei has already given orders, so he opened his mouth without thinking about it.

Zeng Fuzi shook his head and explained to her: "Speaking of which, Mr. Wei also had the heart to enter the office, but there was a rule that the ancestors were not allowed to enter the office, so they had to give up." After traveling for several years, he returned to Qingfeng County to teach and educate people, which is also highly respected. But later, he was the first to propose to set up a wealthy school, and he was the one who made several schools in the county have to close. Alas, the desire for profit is consumed, and the literati spirit has been lost. ”

Fortunately, Master Zeng still had some respect for Master Wei, and he didn't say anything like "the evening festival is not guaranteed".

From these few words, Wen Zhesang already understood that Master Wei's request was not available and he was full of resentment. No wonder he didn't hesitate to befriend Wang De - the county magistrate personally invited him to be a gentleman, what a scenery!

However, Xie Yikou's focus was not on this, he was curious: "You are an old gentleman and old master, how old is Master Wei?" ”

Zeng Fuzi said: "Mr. Wei is over the age of six. ”

"Wow! People are not old-hearted, right? Xie Yikou was surprised, "If Wang De wants him to teach, he will teach, why do you have to look at his face when you come to the adult?" ”

Wen Zhesang and Zeng Fuzi were silent. In fact, this reason is very simple, when Wang De was there, Master Wei was a rich man with decent scenery, and everyone respected him. Wang De was dismissed, and the school run by the wealthy family also closed its doors. At this time, he was just an ordinary teacher. The so-called from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, this is what it means.

Thinking of this, Wen Zhesang couldn't help laughing at himself: "Could it be that I want to run another rich school?" That's it, since Master Wei is not here, why should I be strong. ”

Qingfeng County is so big, you can always find a teacher to teach.

Zeng Fuzi thought of something, his eyelids had not yet been raised, and he suddenly stopped thinking again, as if half a sentence was stuck in his throat, not up or down. But he couldn't help it, and only drank tea with his head down.

Wen Zhesang glanced at him, vaguely feeling that he was hiding something.

At this moment, the atmosphere suddenly became weird, Xie Yikou looked at this and that, and blurted out before his mind could speak. "Isn't there another master? He didn't mean that as long as he ......" Speaking of this, his gaze couldn't help but find Zeng Fuzi.

Zeng Fuzi sat up silently, and under the wide sleeves was a pair of hands that were trembling a little from nervousness. Xie Yikou only thought it was funny to see him like this, he stopped talking badly, and watched Zeng Fuzi fidget with interest.

Finally, Master Zeng couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, "Dare to ask my lord, I don't know, I don't know what Brother Fang said?" ”

He was actually a little excited, and Wen Zhesang and Xie Yikou could see it.

Wen Zhesang told the truth about the words of the gatekeeper of the Fang Mansion, and said: "Master Fang still remembers the Taoli School in his heart, and he can't let go of the students. It's just that the oath has been made, and Master Fang is not easy to break the oath, so he went around and missed the opportunity to go back to the school. ”

"I see, I see." Zeng Fuzi sighed twice, and there was inevitably some disapproval in his tone, "He is too reckless in his actions!" Back then, he had to leave Taoli School to teach the rich for the livelihood of his family, which was a last resort, could it be that he thought I was still blaming him? This kid, when he was a classmate, he thought too much about the future, and now there are almost half a hundred people, and it is not worry-free! ”

For the past that he didn't understand, Wen Zhesang didn't make up his mind, "The bell must be tied to the bell, but I don't know if Master Zeng is willing to talk to Master Fang?" ”

Zeng Fuzi's face softened slightly, his hands didn't tremble, and he took a sip of warm tea to moisten his throat. A relieved look appeared on his face, with a hint of a smile, "I'm relieved to know that he is still thinking about his sons." Adults, please rest assured, the old man will definitely invite Brother Fang here, this school, as long as there is still a master, it will never be closed. ”

After getting such a firm promise, Wen Zhisang's hanging heart finally fell to the ground.

The two returned to the yamen, Jiang Weixi leaned against the door frame, holding a handful of melon seeds in his hand and eating happily. Lao Yuan waved at the two of them, and those two cheerful eyebrows almost didn't fly into the sky.

"You're finally home! Big news! Big news! Jiang Weixi shouted exaggeratedly. Immediately, Xie Yikou, who stepped forward in three or two steps, was pressed on the shoulder and staggered. Jiang Weixi hurriedly protected the melon seeds in his hand, "Big brother! Big brother stop! The melons are all sprinkled! ”

Xie Yikou, who had to listen to the sound of reading for half an hour because of Wen Zhesang's discussion with Zeng Fuzi, rolled his eyes weakly, raised his hand to cover Jiang Weixi's hand, and then reversed his wrist, snatched the melon seeds and retreated to Wen Zhesang's side.

He tasted a melon seed "click", felt that it tasted good, and calmly held it in his hand, "The adults are tired today, if you have anything to say, you will talk about it when the adults rest for a while." ”

Jiang Weixi suddenly felt a toothache, why didn't he find out that Xie Yikou, the bastard leader, could be so dog-legged before?

A moment later, a group of people listened to the news from Jiang Weixi's inquiry.

As soon as Jiang Weixi finished speaking, he followed a few suspicious people to Zheng's mansion, and then said that on the way back to the yamen, he saw many people crowded to read the notices. He also looked at it curiously, and with just two eyes, he was staring at people again. So he repeated his old trick and followed a few people until he reached Shangfu, but those people didn't come out again after they went in, and he couldn't kidnap someone to ask about the situation.

He "gurgled" a few large sips of tea and burped. The few people who watched listened with little interest, but they were very happy to eat melon seeds. He immediately felt insulted.

Then Dongxue handed him a handful of melon seeds, which he gladly accepted and joined the melon seed eating team together.

"After today, the rich will know that I support private households." Wen Zhesang took a sip of tea, the entrance was a little cold, astringent, and not delicious.

Song Hanshu is frail and sickly, and he stays away from melon seeds, which are easy to get angry. Although they are frail, they always carry a folding fan with them, which gives Jiang Weixi and Xie Yikou another layer of cognition of the sour rot of literati.

He only drank tea, and occasionally picked up a sentence or two, "Judging from the reaction of the people, the adults have won the hearts of the people." With adults taking the lead, private households will be able to compete with the rich. ”

"Qingfeng County is the Qingfeng County of the people." Wen Zhesang said this sentence more than once, "I just returned what belonged to the people." ”

When she said this, her expression was still calm, as if she was talking about an inconsequential matter. Xie Yikou couldn't help but look at her twice, thinking that he really didn't look away, Lord Wen, he is really a good official. The brothers washed their hands of gold and were able to earn a living in the jurisdiction of Lord Wen, and as long as they were honest and duty-bound, they would not be blamed.

It's just that he didn't see the loneliness that flashed in Wen Zhesang's eyes.

The wind was a little cold, Song Hanshu coughed twice, Dongxue frowned, and couldn't help but look over. He didn't notice it, "Hula" took the fan, his eyes were full of sincerity, "With adults here, Qingfeng County will definitely get better and better." ”

In the evening, the dog girl rushed over, saying that Wu Beifa's group of beggars, who had eaten the board last time, returned to Qingzi Lane after recovering from their injuries, and the dead beggar Bai Lai wanted to enter the good hall.

Those people are all "ex-convicts" and are quite shameless. The dog mother is afraid that they will cause trouble, and she is sympathetic. So she arranged them into the good hall, even if she could help with some work, she was always comforted in her heart. But who knew that that guy was so indulgent and hardworking, and when he entered the good hall, he secretly played tricks all day long, and even started a small gang.

When the dog saw them doing nonsense, she immediately regretted it. But she can't say it, and she can't beat it. Seeing that they were about to stir Shantang into a miasma, she was even more angry.

So she and the people in the good hall together and kicked Wu Beifa and the others out.

But the group of people who wanted to eat white food stopped doing it, and squatted outside the good hall every day to call the soul, disturbing the quiet. During the meal, I also saw them squatting at the door of the mouth crying and crying, like a dead father and mother. The dog had no choice, and she couldn't really beat people, so she had to find the yamen.

"There is no such thing as a free lunch." Wen Zhisang's tone was indifferent after hearing this, her eyes drooped slightly, as if she was thinking, "It's not a good thing to let them wander around." It just so happens that I'm planning to build a few schools, and the food is enough, so I guess they won't like it. ”

The dog shook her head when she heard this, "I can't help it, those bastards will be cheating and slippery, and they won't be able to do anything well." The adults asked them to go to the academy, for fear that they would only want to eat white food, and when the time came, the construction of the academy would be delayed, wouldn't it be worse? ”

"It's okay." Wen Zhesanti wrote an arrest warrant, "If you disturb the peace, you must first let them reflect on themselves in the prison." ”
