Chapter 277 Mrs. Houzhai is very enthusiastic
Yun Ji instantly understood what Mei Sheng wanted to express, but he didn't agree, so he argued: "The mountain chief once said that the academy is for learning, one is to learn and think, and the other is to practice what we have learned, in fact, why do we want to enter the academy to study, in fact, it is just to be able to become a better version of ourselves, and then be a useful person." ”
Mei Sheng felt a little pain in his flesh.
It's true that he can't talk to a scholar, how can he say it if he's a half-literate man?
can be admitted to the lifting of people at a young age, and it is indeed a belly of ink.
So he stood up and took the clouds and toured the courtyard of his house. His family is also small, the old lady was named Gongren, his wife is pleasant, and he has two sons, one is at the border, and the other is appointed as a county magistrate. He loves himself and his wife, so he resolutely refuses to take concubines. Although the old lady was willing, she didn't force him for the sake of her two sons, so the family was very clean.
Yun Ji observed that there were martial arts utensils in this courtyard, so he asked, "The big officials also wield knives and guns?" ”
"Hahaha, I'm a martial artist, how can I not know swords, guns, swords, halberds, what I'm best at is a spear, and I play a good gun, and it is this gun that gives me my current position, but it's a pity that I have retired from the line, and I only have a false position in the imperial court that does not fight in the army." Between the words, Mei Sheng revealed a sense of loneliness.
He is no longer in his twenties, and he will no longer have the energy of his youth, and now his eldest son has gone to the border for him, and he has also inherited his marksmanship, and he is not afraid that there will be no way out.
Thinking so, Mei Sheng was also satisfied. After all, the future will be the world of young people. These people who have come over are destined to be drowned in the torrent of the past and cannot extricate themselves.
"Yun Ji has studied martial arts, and he is the best at playing swords." Yun Ji said to Mei Sheng.
At this point, Mei Sheng's eyes lit up, he didn't dislike the scribes. It's just that I dislike them for looking weak, and they don't look like people who can withstand strong winds and waves at all.
Hearing that Yun and Huiwu were martial arts, how could he not be happy?
Only those who can write and martial arts are like people!
"Here you go, how about we play a trick?" Mei Sheng threw Yun Ji a light sword, and considering his height and age, Mei Sheng also chose a sword that was about the same weight as the one in Yun Ji's hand.
"Okay!" Yun Ji agreed, and the two began to fight in the courtyard.
And here, the maid led Li Qing and Jiang to the inner house. The old lady and the lady were already waiting, and the moment they saw Li Qing, a trace of surprise flashed in their hearts.
This new neighbor is so good-looking. I didn't see a teenage son at all, and he looked like a fairy.
"Come on, come on, please sit down and have tea, let's talk." Mrs. Mei looks quiet, but in fact, she is essentially a person who is foreign and internal. After seeing the two members of the Jiang family, they immediately greeted them, and this enthusiastic appearance made Li Qing feel like he had met Wang Xifeng.
"We moved here a few days ago, because a lot of things were not handled properly, and we only have time to visit today, but it is really not ours." Jiang is Li Qing's elder, so naturally she should come forward and speak to her neighbors first.
When the old woman looked at Jiang, she felt very familiar, and she had a sense of déjà vu, but they really hadn't seen it.
"Actually, we should have come to visit you, I already knew that a neighbor had moved in, but I have been watching, I'm really embarrassed." Mrs. Mei didn't wait for the old lady to speak, and answered Jiang first.
The old lady smiled, and she was not angry, but she blamed her mouth: "You splash, no big or small, return it to me." Saying that, the old lady hurriedly pulled Jiang to sit down and said to her: "Old woman, I am sixty-nine this year, I don't know how old my sister is this year?" ”
Jiang put a hot tea in front of her, and there was a fragrance of tea wafting on it, but she instinctively felt that this tea did not have her own fragrance.
The old lady and the eldest lady of the Mei family were so hospitable, which made her feel like she wanted to shrink back home.
Li Qing gave Jiang a look of relief, hoping that she would be able to calm down.
It was the first time Jiang had gone out to talk to a stranger, and even if the stranger would eventually become their familiar neighbor, she felt uncomfortable.
Shangjing was originally a place that everyone longed for, but when the real hillbilly entered the city, he felt the problem of cognitive confusion from the city and the countryside.
Li Qing is working on solving Jiang's problem. She and Yun Ji have both been to Shangjing, especially her, she has been here for an unknown number of times, so many things are actually familiar, and there will be no reaction like Jiang's.
After receiving Li Qing's encouragement, Jiang finally took the first step bravely.
"I'm fifty-six this year, how old is my little sister?" Jiang deliberately accentuated his sister's tone, which immediately made Old Madam Mei laugh.
"I didn't expect me to be older than you." The old lady's wrinkled face smiled like a chrysanthemum. "Then I'll take care of you, let's call you sister." The eldest lady was giggling on the side, and suddenly a maid came in and whispered in her ear.
The eldest lady waved her hand, and the maid slowly bowed and withdrew.
"We have a big official and a neighbor's child fighting, I heard that the official is getting braver and braver, but that name is very good, and many times he is praised by others for his good looks."
Li Qing didn't expect his son to fight with someone, Jiang stood up in a daze, and was about to go to Yunji. Mrs. Mei knew that she had misunderstood, and said hurriedly: "Mrs. neighbor, this fight is not the other, my officials like to dance knives and guns, they are fighting in the yard at this time, don't worry, my officials are measured." ”
"Alas, I'm scared to death, our family is just one single seedling, if he has three long and two short, our family will be the last." Jiang Shi was a little naughty and said to the old lady.
"Alas, my family has two children, one goes to guard the border, and the other goes to a small place to make a county order, what about my heart, I am worried all day long, for fear that God will not favor me." The eldest lady pouted. The old lady looked at Mrs. Mei and signaled that she could still give birth, so hurry up and give birth to a few more.
The lady's face turned red.
Li Qing just laughed, this family is really interesting.
"You're not from Beijing?" Mrs. Mei noticed that Li Qing's accent was not like the Luoyang reading accent unique to Shangjing, so she asked.
Li Qing replied: "It's really not, my aunt and I are both from Jinzhou, born and raised in Jinzhou." ”
"Hey, I actually met the living Jinzhou people, I heard that Jinzhou has beautiful scenery, outstanding people, and many talents, and today I saw one."
