XXXIX. Secretly help each other

At the water's edge of Jiangcheng, when night falls, on the gravel road in front of the "Hengshun Hotel", there are groups of travelers staying in the hotel. At this moment, everyone's eyes are staring at the river on the side of the gravel road. Wang Jinhua couldn't help but sigh: Wow, those lights around the river are reflected on the sparkling river. It is like a layer of sparkling broken silver on the surface of the river, and it is like ink satin being washed!

Li Yunlong, who was standing beside Wang Jinhua, couldn't help but pick up the conversation: Brother Jinhua, look at those faint boats, lying quietly on the river, the river rhythmically lapping the boats, and the gentle snoring of the fishing boats, just like playing a harmonious lullaby for Jiangcheng: Sleep, sleep, facing the rising sun tomorrow, you have to go on a long voyage. Nourish your spirit and welcome a better tomorrow!

Hearing this, the shopkeeper of the hotel Yang standing next to them couldn't help but turn his head and smile and said: The young man not only teaches the children very well, but also reads his own books very carefully, and Wensi is really good. In the future, he will be a pillar of the dynasty who has "made great achievements"!

Hearing this, Li Yunlong immediately said shyly: Shopkeeper Yang, we young people should have the perseverance of "self-reliance". It's not enough to worry about it at all! Thanks to you, you not only let us stay for free, but also do the work for the two of us. We can't thank you enough! Don't praise me anymore, my cheeks are warm. You keep saying we're blushing!

When Wang Jinhua heard this, she also helped on the side: Shopkeeper Yang, what our brother Long said is very right. He taught the children around the hotel to read and write, so that he could exchange silver for the two of us to spend here! Thanks to your willingness to let us stay for free, and you are also enthusiastic to help contact the surrounding villagers and elders to send the baby to the private school. We already owe you a lot of affection. Your words just now really hurt the two of us!

When the travelers who were enjoying the night view of the river heard this, they all threw their eyes on Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong without hesitation. Everyone nodded their heads and gave a thumbs up, and said their appreciation in unison: Oh, these two babies are so knowledgeable. What a rarity!

Immediately, the situation of the day flashed in front of everyone again: on the scene of three poles in the sun, a pair of brothers who looked very much like girls came to the door of the hotel hand in hand.

The one who walked in front turned to the one behind him and said, "Brother Jinhua, let's go in and find a job." Then, let's eat and stay in this hotel!

When the latter heard this, he didn't relentlessly say: Brother Long, you still have to study and take the exam. How can you support us just by working? Let's get a too----

The one in front of him interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said: Brother Jinhua, your body is extremely slim. How can you make yourself toil? Besides, I'm two years younger than you, and I'm much stronger than you. I can hold on!

The one behind him turned to him anxiously and said: Brother Long, it is precisely because of our slender bones. Daddy expects you to study hard and prepare for the scientific examination! We're just coming over to find a chores to do for you to spend here. Don't say anything more!

As he spoke, the young man, who was two years older, strode into the hotel, walked to the hotel counter and clasped his fists with both hands, bent down and bowed deeply to the shopkeeper Yang who was standing inside and pulling the abacus beads, and said in a loud voice: Hello, uncle. The younger generation is so polite!

Hearing this, the travelers who were drinking and eating food and talking about business couldn't help but look at the two brothers who were saluting the shopkeeper Yang at the counter. sighed and said: Hey, there has been a shortage of soldiers these days. There are countless young people who have learned badly, and there are not many who can still know how to respect their elders so well!

Soon, a middle-aged man wearing a melon skin hat picked up the conversation: Don't ask, these two babies must be from a scholarly family. Morning and twilight, even if it is a bad little baby. It's definitely going to get better!

Immediately, an old man who looked like an official refuted him with a smile: Oh, this brother's words are wrong. What do you mean, you get melons when you plant melons, you get beans when you plant beans, right? However, I don't think so. Since ancient times, heroes have come out of teenagers, and I think that babies can only walk on the right path if they have a good character from an early age!

As soon as the official's words landed, there was a round of applause of "pop, pop". Mixed with twittering praise: Hehe, what this official said is very right. We absolutely agree!

In this way, the two young men were so embarrassed that their faces were red. They hurriedly turned around and clasped their hands into fists, and bent down to salute the travelers around them. Said shyly: Fellow villagers, fathers and elders, the younger generations Wang Jinhua and Wang Wenlong are not familiar with the place of life when they first arrived. Everyone thinks so highly of us, which really makes us both embarrassed. I hope that all uncles and aunts will take care of you in the future!

When Shopkeeper Yang heard that the two young people were "Wang Jinhua and Wang Wenlong", he walked out of the counter and walked quickly to the two young people, took their hands and said impassionedly: "Two babies, you have a polite attitude." Everyone has seen it, so don't be humble anymore! What do you two have to do in our Jiangcheng, I don't know if you can tell you one or two. I want to see if I can help you?

Hearing this, the surrounding travelers echoed and said: Shopkeeper Yang is very right, the two young men hurry up and say your plan. If we can help. We will definitely help you too!

Hearing this, the two young men hugged each other with tears of joy. About half a cup of tea, the younger two years younger let go of each other, turned to look at the travelers around the hotel, clasped his hands into fists and said: Wang Wenlong, the junior, is the third in the house. Because in a few months, it will be the day when the imperial court will hold a scientific expedition. Daddy thought that this was a provincial city, so let me come here to study hard and prepare for the scientific examination!

After the two finished introducing themselves, the young man, who was two years older, smiled and said: We are his second brother Wang Jinhua, and our father originally instructed the housekeeper to go to the account room to collect the silver taels for the two of us to spend here. However, we both felt like we had a pair of hands. You can't rely on the two old people anymore to fund it!

When Wang Wenlong heard this, he took another step forward to pick up the conversation: So, let's implore all uncles and aunts to show you the way to do chores. If Meng can afford it, in addition to eating and lodging, everyone can just watch and give some!

When Shopkeeper Yang heard this, he laughed and said: You two young people, as for the food and accommodation of the two of you. Let's wrap it around the old decay! The old master in the private school near us was old and healthy, and he had already left to do it. There are quite a few children who have no one to teach, but I can introduce one of you to be the new master of these children. However, I don't know which of you two is suitable?

Wang Jinhua blurted out: Thank you for your success. Brother Long's grades are better than mine, and his father has high expectations for him. I want to be a new master in a private school and at the same time study hard in my free time. So, let's ask you to take him to a private school all the time!

Unexpectedly, that Wang Wenlong hurriedly said: Uncle, Brother Jinhua has been weak and sickly since he was a child, and when he grew up, he was as slender as a girl. To be a private school master, you just need to use your mouth and brain. Let's ask you to take him to a private school!

Now, that Wang Jinhua is also anxious. He hurriedly pulled Wang Wenlong aside and persuaded him: Brother Long, as a private school master, you have time to study. What are you trying to do? Have you forgotten your father's instructions when we left the house?

Wang Wenlong frowned and said: Brother Jinhua, there is no work here at the moment, and it is easier than being a private school master. I'm afraid you won't be able to chop wood or carry water!

Thinking of the daytime, Shopkeeper Yang and all the passengers couldn't forget: at that time, they were all moved to tears by the deep friendship between the two brothers. Immediately, in the air of the entire "Hengshun Hotel", there was a sighing and sighing sob!

The shopkeeper Yang finally stopped crying, took out a handkerchief, wiped the tears that flowed wantonly on his face twice, choked up, and said: Okay, you two stop competing to be handymen. If you two continue to fight, we will all stop crying!

Speaking of this, Shopkeeper Yang took the hands of the two brothers and said: Wang Wenlong, since you don't worry about your second brother Wang Jinhua working as a handyman. So, let's let him help the old man manage the hotel's accounts. What do you think?

Hearing this, Wang Wenlong burst into tears and laughed. I saw that he lit his head like a "chicken pecking rice"! Immediately, the "Hengshun Hotel" was filled with a round of applause, mixed with an exclamation: Oops, the matter has finally been satisfactorily resolved. That's great!

However, except for the shopkeeper Yang who is Su Yuan's cousin. I heard Su Yuanwai say: Wang Yuanwai asked his righteous son Li Yunlong to change his name to "Wang Wenlong" and prepare to participate in the imperial examination. It's just that this time it was he who ruthlessly drove this righteous son out of the palace. Let him come to Jiangcheng to stay in the "Hengshun Hotel", read the "Historical Books" and "Scriptures" hard to prepare for the imperial examination held by the imperial court after this autumn.

Su Yuanwai wept bitterly and said: Wang Yuanwai ruthlessly drove Li Yunlong out of the palace, just to cut off the second lady of the palace: she wanted to compete with her sister for Li Yunlong's ambition. In addition, in order to enable Wang Jinhua, the eldest lady of the palace, to escape: the bad luck of marrying Wan Qilin as an aunt's wife. As a last resort, he and Li Yunlong acted together in front of the two sisters: a "bitter meat trick"!

Su Yuanwai also said: Fortunately, Wang Jinhua, the eldest lady of the palace, really can't watch her father drive Li Yunlong out of the mansion. In addition, she really can't bear it: the man she likes in her sister is alone and suffering outside. So, she endured her father's scolding that pretended to be extremely angry, and insisted on asking to go out of the house to take care of Li Yunlong for her sister. Then, she resolutely said goodbye to her father and came to Jiangcheng with Li Yunlong.

After finishing speaking, Su Yuanwai repeatedly told the shopkeeper Yang: This time, the identities of Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua when they came to Jiangcheng were "Wang Jinhua" and "Wang Wenlong" that Wang Yuanwai had just handled. At the same time, for Wang Jinhua's personal safety. Wang Yuanwai entrusted Li Yunlong to help her disguise herself as a man, and after coming to the "Hengshun Hotel", even if it is to cover Wang Jinhua's eyes, you must not arrange for them to do chores. You must not forget! But even if you arrange easy work for your two children. Don't let Wang Jinhua have any doubts!

Because Su Yuanwai and Wang Yuanwai are brothers in life and death, every year when Su Yuanwai feasts relatives and friends in the house, Yang Shopkeeper also drinks and chats with Wang Yuanwai. Therefore, Wang Yuanwai's two daughters are no strangers to Shopkeeper Yang! In other words: the diametrically opposed personalities of the two daughters of the palace, he also knows everything about them!

Although in that era, the secular world of "male superiority and inferiority of women" oppressed all female compatriots in the world, and they had to stay at home without leaving the house. In the mouth of cousin Su Yuanwai, Shopkeeper Yang heard: Wang Jinhua's "gentle and kind", "respect for the old and love for the young", "women don't let their eyebrows", "well-behaved and sensible share worries for their father".

On the contrary, every time my cousin Su Yuanwai talked about Wang Yinfeng, the second lady of the palace, he always jumped out of extremely unfriendly words angrily: This child was born "arrogant", "easy and hardworking", and "tricky and mean". will also play the immoral trick of "one crying, two troubles, and three hangings", and the troubled brother Wang and Jinhua's niece can't do anything about her. Hey, I really don't know, when and when will she be able to become a good daughter?

To tell the truth that is not good, Shopkeeper Yang also likes Wang Jinhua, the eldest lady of the palace, and hates the second lady Wang Yinfeng in his heart. Therefore, when I heard my cousin say: Wang Yuanwai and Li Yunlong actually "have a good heart", and at the same time thought of the "bitter meat plan" to cover up Wang Jinhua and Wang Yinfeng. He couldn't help but get up and shout happily: Only the gentle and kind Wang Jinhua can be worthy of the talented Li Yunlong; That arrogant and domineering Wang Yinfeng can only be worthy of Wan Qilin, who likes to "mess with flowers and grass"!

Shopkeeper Yang was in such a fierce mood, putting himself in the shoes of Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua to think about the grand blueprint. Finally, he thought of the private school set up by the ancestor of the Yang Mansion. It can be used as Li Yunlong's hiding place!

So, Shopkeeper Yang quietly dismissed the current Master Liang in the private school. Next, he dismissed Mr. Ju in the "Hengshun Hotel". It is conceivable: before the arrival of Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua, the private school set up by the ancestors of Yangfu has always been General Tie, locking the door of "drinking water and thinking of the source of study".

Of course, the "Hengshun Hotel" set up by the shopkeeper Yang himself was personally managed by Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua before the arrival of Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua. Otherwise, the two children of the palace would not have seen him bow his head and pull the abacus beads when they walked into the "Hengshun Hotel"!

It can be seen that Shopkeeper Yang has poured infinite love into the two children of Li Yunlong and Wang Jinhua. However, despite this, he still did not forget his cousin Su Yuanwai's reminder: After the two children came to the "Hengshun Hotel", even if it was to cover Wang Jinhua's eyes, you must not arrange for them to do chores. You must not forget! But even if you arrange easy work for your two children. Don't let Wang Jinhua have any doubts!

Therefore, what Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong heard from the mouth of Shopkeeper Yang was: You two young people, as for the food and accommodation of the two of you. Let's wrap it around the old decay! The old master in the private school near us was old and healthy, and he had already left to do it. There are quite a few children who have no one to teach, but I can introduce one of you to be the new master of these children. However, I don't know which of you two is suitable?

The question at the end is just this: Shopkeeper Yang wants to test whether Wang Jinhua is really gentle and kind, and whether Li Yunlong is really upright and righteous. And the "touchstone" that is deliberately thrown!

However, what Shopkeeper Yang didn't expect was that in the face of the easy work he provided for the new master of the private school, Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong actually humbled each other. As a result, he and all the passengers shed tears. In the air of the entire "Hengshun Hotel", there is a sigh and a sigh of sobbing!

What made Shopkeeper Yang even more unexpected was that he was decisive in handling things, and he always believed that "men don't flick when they have tears". However, watching Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong humble each other in the face of easy work. He pulled out his handkerchief and wiped the tears from his face a few times. I choked uncontrollably: Okay, you two don't fight to be handymen anymore. If you two continue to fight, we will all stop crying!

In the end, Shopkeeper Yang couldn't help but throw out his hole cards: Wang Wenlong, since you don't worry about your second brother Wang Jinhua working as a handyman. So, let's let him help the old man manage the hotel's accounts. What do you think?

Shopkeeper Yang knew that at that time, the reason why he threw his hole cards early. was moved by Wang Jinhua and Li Yunlong's behavior, and he couldn't bear to continue to test the two children! At the same time, he was still silently chanting in his heart: Lord Cangtian is above, I, Yang, beg your old manifestation to bless Li Yunlong, and I will definitely have a "gold list title" next spring. Let Wang Jinhua "be a good man with a safe life"!
