The gloom that flashed on his face did not escape Banniang's eyes, and he was worried in his heart. However, Wu Sanniang and her fifth brother are really difficult to do, and their identity is not a problem, the problem is that Wu Sanniang is the only daughter in the family, and she wants to recruit a son-in-law, and obviously, it is impossible for the Zeng family to let their son go to someone else's house to be a son-in-law.

Seeing that Wulang lowered his head and thought about something, Banniang asked, "Fifth brother, what do you want?" ”

"Seventeen Lang once told me that what we lack most in the Great Song Dynasty is to read people, but in addition to reading people, other talents are almost a blank, in the past, when Emperor Taizong was in the past, he also set up military academies, farmland and water conservancy colleges and other colleges, but in recent decades, after three generations of emperors, those colleges have no voice, I didn't think there was anything before, but now look at Seventeen Lang's actions, I feel that our Great Song Kingdom should indeed pay attention to cultivating talents in all aspects."

It's a pity that in today's Great Song Dynasty, from top to bottom, almost no one pays attention to the cultivation of some professionals, and they all regard studying and becoming an official as the only bright path in life.

Don't explain, the Great Song Dynasty also has the Ming Jing scientific examination, and there is also the martial arts department, but if you can read and can read, don't you go to the same entrance examination? It seems that only those who are born in the Shike can be regarded as serious scholars, and in the officialdom, the waist pole can really be straight and upright. For example, Lu Seventeen generally doesn't care about false fame, and is bent on doing something, how many can the Great Song Kingdom find?

People in the world think he is cynical and can't read. It's a joke really.

Wu Lang's words, Banniang also agreed, but this is not something that she can solve as a person who crosses the farming stream, so she smiled and said: "Brother Seventeen is right, Brother Fifth is right to think so, now all the departments of the court of the Great Song Kingdom are controlled by literati, such as Si Nongsi, it should be managed by people who understand agriculture." The secretary should be managed by someone who understands economics and taxation. The Privy Council should be run by people who understand military affairs and war. If you raise the division, you should know the law and know the person who knows how to detect. But now it's all in the hands of people who read virtuous books. It's not that it's wrong to read the books of the sages correctly, but those books teach people theories and ideas, but they don't teach people solutions to things. Today's reality is that how can there be no problem for a layman to lead an insider, or even a layman to lead a layman and then take care of things? But this is not something that our small people can manage, fifth brother, you study hard, and one day, you have reached the highest point, you can afford to manage it, and it is not too late to think about it. As for me, I can make money with peace of mind, so that my brothers can have the confidence to be clean officials. ”

The words are good, Gorou sighed, but he didn't want Xiao Jiulang to come out of nowhere and said, "Eighth sister is right, fifth brother, eighth brother-in-law...... Fifth brother, that's why you and I should study hard, if we can enter the cabinet in the future, we don't have to worry about not being able to change the status quo. Empty talk is useless, the so-called seeking things in his position, then he can really let himself stand in such a high position and have that power in his hands. ”

Seeing Banniang looking at him with a shocked face, Xiao Jiu frowned and asked Banniang: "Eighth sister, what are you doing to see me like this?" Am I not right? ”

"Yes, genius, you're so right."

From this point of view, the future ruler of their Zeng family must be this little ninth brother.

Banniang immediately changed her smiling face, and regardless of what Xiao Jiu said just now, she immediately flattered: "Ninth brother, are you tired?" Hungry or not? I see that you have lost weight, what delicious food do you want to eat, Sister Eight will make it for you? What do you want? Just talk to the eighth sister. By the way, didn't you think that desk was not easy to use? Eighth Sister Ming'er asked Second Brother Liu to make a new one for you, and Eighth Sister personally designed a desk for you that is easy to use and good-looking, and don't you think the bookbag is not easy to use? The eighth sister Ming'er will go to the street to pull some new Shu brocade for you, and remake a better one for you than the fifth brother? What tomorrow, sister will go now, ninth brother, you wait. ”

Xiao Jiu Lang Zixuan was frightened by her flattering appearance, and looked at Wu Lang suspiciously: "Fifth brother, what's wrong with my eighth sister?" ”

"Isn't this kid a demon?" Gorou reached out and touched Banniang's forehead, feeling that although he was sweating a little, his body temperature was quite normal, and he didn't burn.

Banniang opened his hand fiercely and said angrily: "Zeng Wulang, don't bother me to shoot the future prime minister's ass." ”

Gorou and Kokuro both rolled their eyes and left together, leaving their Zeng family's little God of Wealth and wandering there alone.

Banniang felt that she had finally determined who the biggest official in her family was in the future, and she could be targeted from now on, and her mood was quite happy. I didn't bother with those two fellows who didn't know what to do. Humming a little tune, he planned to go to the backyard to find Yunxian to talk.

Who knew that when he came out of the door of the library pavilion compound, he saw Zijing leaning against the big tree in front of the courtyard in a daze with a lost face, while Zijian was embarrassed, looking at Zijing, wanting to say something but couldn't open his mouth.

"Brother Zijian, Brother Zijing, why are you here?"

Seeing the question, Zeng Zijing came back to his senses, and Zijian on the side smiled and said: "Because there is a big brother in front of them, they take care of it, Zijing and I have nothing to do, I want to find Seventeen Lang and Wulang to play together, because I heard Xiao Jiu say that you are all here, so I came here......"

That means that she just had a quarrel with Lu Seventeen, and the two brothers should have heard it? Looking at Zijing and Zijian's appearance, they must have heard it clearly. And Brother Zijing is so lost, I'm afraid that I already have Sister Lu Si in my heart. Banniang's head is full of black lines, which was originally a good thing, but because of the third aunt's careful thinking, it has become an embarrassing situation.

If you want to say that the third aunt is wrong, she is not wrong, but she just wants to find a good daughter-in-law for her distressed son, but how did she know, not only is the Lu family interested in Zijing, but Zijing also likes Lu Siniang very much, in fact, in terms of character, Sister Lu Si and Brother Zijian are both sullen temperaments, if the two live together, they can respect each other like guests, but although it is a good thing for husband and wife to respect each other like guests, I am afraid that there will be a lot less fun, but Zijing is different, he has a lively and funny personality, and he is pure and kind, if he can become with Lu Si sister, The Zeng family does not have the family style of marrying concubines and accepting small children, and Sister Lu is an easy-going woman, presumably she can live happily with Brother Zijing, which is why Lu Seventeen picked Brother Zijing.

He is Lu Siniang's only sister, and he really thinks of the extreme. If Zijing and Zijian hadn't heard those words just now, it would have been fine, but now they heard it again......

Banniang couldn't help but look at Zijian, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zijian saw Banniang looking at him, so she smiled, gave her a reassuring look, patted Zijing's shoulder again, and said: "Zijing, don't worry, I don't have extravagant hopes for Miss Lu's family, and besides, the Lu family has a fancy for you, I will make it clear to my mother when I turn around, I can't ruin your good marriage because of me." When I go back, I will persuade my mother to personally go to the Lu family to propose to you. If you are a good woman, you should cherish it. ”

"Brother, I'm ......" Zijing was a little ashamed when he heard this. But he can let Zijian do anything, but Lu Siniang is the woman he likes, he can't give up, and he can't.

Zijian smiled: "Zijing, why does the eldest husband have no wife, as long as I Zeng Zijian is good enough, I don't have to worry about finding a daughter-in-law, besides, I am only nineteen years old now, isn't the second brother also a pro in his twenties?" What's the hurry? You can rest assured, there are many good women in our Great Song Kingdom, can't I meet one of Zeng Zijian? If I can't even mix with a daughter-in-law, I am not worthy of being our Zeng family's son, what about you, just cheer up and wait for your grandmother and mother to marry you to the Miss Lu family. ”

"Brother, thank you." Zijing hugged his fist at Zijian a little ashamedly.

"Between our brothers, what do you say thank you?" Zeng Zijian shook his head and smiled, "You and the eldest brother Zifu let me when I was a child, so I can't do anything for you this time?" Besides, this is not what I did for you, the Lu family originally fancied it. It's just that you don't blame your mother in your heart......"

"Brother, how can I blame my mother? She's not ...... yet."

In the past, Zijian's daughter-in-law who didn't pass through the door, and Zijian is also a childhood sweetheart, if it weren't for Zijian's own liking, his mother wouldn't have booked the young lady of that family for him, but it's a pity that the young lady went too early. Since the young lady went, Zijian, who was already calm, showed less smiles, and her mother wanted to say that she was close to him and find a good daughter-in-law, but she was afraid that he would be depressed and hurt herself.

Zijian waved her hand and said to Banniang: "Eighth sister, you accompany your brother Zijing to play, and I will go to find my mother." ”

Banniang felt that Zijian's back was very lonely, and for some reason, her heart was sour. said to Zijing: "Brother Zijing, I heard from my grandmother that Brother Zijian was also engaged in the past, but unfortunately the young lady went due to a sudden illness?" ”

Zijing hurriedly waved his hand: "This matter, you must not be in front of him, he has a very good relationship with that young lady, and after the young lady goes, my brother has rarely laughed, and my mother is also because of this, and I saw that Miss Lu is really good, so I moved my mind." ”

It turned out that because of this, looking at Brother Zijian's appearance, I am afraid that I am still thinking about that young lady in my heart, and the most unfortunate thing in this world is that I can't chase it. And then that long life, I lived in that memory. It turns out that Brother Jian also has his sad things.

Seeing that Banniang was silent, Zijing paused and said, "Eighth sister, you say, am I too selfish in this matter?" ”

Banniang shook her head: "Brother Zijing, anything in this world can make people, but feelings can't." What's more, this is not just your business, the fourth sister, she is not an object, she is a living person, she has her own feelings and preferences, if you really like her, you should work hard to fight for it, if you don't like it, then let it go, but you let go, and you have no right to decide her choice. ”

Speaking of this, Banniang raised a smile again: "Brother Zijing, look, Brother Zijian has helped you, should you also fight for it?" I think, you can't act like nobody, and put everything on Brother Zijian, you have to tell the third aunt yourself, a manly man, you have to dare to be a man. ”

Zijing is only a seventeen-year-old boy, although he likes Lu Siniang, but he is also a little embarrassed to think that he went to tell his mother about this, so he blushed, but after Banniang was so excited, his heart suddenly became arrogant. Yes, if he can't even fight for the woman he likes, what kind of big things can he do in the future?

But as soon as he lifted his clothes, he took Banniang's hand and said, "Let's go, let's go find my mother too." ”

Banniang fought for her hand and said with a smile: "I don't dare to accompany you, you go by yourself, otherwise, the third aunt will scold me when she sees me going to get involved in my brothers' marriage." ”

Zijing thought about it, how could a sister be in charge of her brother's marriage? He smiled, took a big stride, and walked to the front yard.
