Bai Yuniang came outside the house, looked at the slightly mottled door, smiled slightly, and remembered all the things in the past.

The previous owner of this room was an account clerk and also Bai Yuniang's master.

A poor and sour talent in his forties, unable to carry his shoulders and unable to lift it, he has read the benevolence, righteousness and morality for half his life, but he has not been able to exchange for fame, and in the end he almost starved to death.

By coincidence, Bai Zijing, who went down the mountain to do business, saw that the owner of Baizhai saw that he was pitiful, so he took him back to the cottage to be a teacher for his eight-year-old daughter, and helped the cottage keep accounts by the way.

This old talent who is the export is also a good man, not a successful reader, but an excellent teacher.

Under his influence, Bai Yuniang gradually developed a strong interest in poetry and articles, and as a result of the rise, he would also compose a poem and compete with his teacher.

Bai Yuniang's poems were still immature at the beginning, but as her husband helped her make up for them, her later works became more and more flexible, and even golden sentences were frequent, which made Mr. Teacher sigh to himself.

In the past ten years of getting along, the old master finally recognized the fact that he had a limited talent for reading and seemed to be more suitable to be a teacher, so he had the idea of going down the mountain to start a private school.

Two years ago, this old man, who had been kind to some promises in the cottage, suddenly submitted his resignation to the owner of the white village.

The reason is that he has nothing to teach his students, and if he stays here any longer, he will inevitably be a little suspicious of eating and drinking.

Although Bai Yuniang was very reluctant to this gentleman, she also knew that the teacher had his own ideals.

The owner of Baizhai remembered his kindness to his daughter over the years, agreed to the other party's request, and gave a lot of money before leaving.

Lao Xiucai stayed in the mountains all the year round, and he never got involved in meat in his life, even if he was polite and honest, he couldn't resist the guys on the mountain who boasted all day long about where the kiln was good, so the first thing he did when he went down the mountain was to drink a meal of flower wine.

Unexpectedly, this is the only time that it has brought disaster to him.

The guests of the brothel in the Qinglou include three religions and nine streams, and one of them is a big family who recognizes Lao Xiucai.

This big family was once kidnapped by the bandits in Girl's Mountain, and was blackmailed with 10,000 taels of silver, not to mention, and was humiliated by those guys, and even a guy with a tattoo on his face said that he wanted to vent his anger.

Although in the end, the other party released himself as promised, but during those days of fear and fear, just thinking about it made me break out in a cold sweat.

Not to mention that I was hungry for nine meals in three days during that time, and the seven or eight catties of meat I lost couldn't make up for it no matter how much I ate.

The big man who had a grudge immediately ordered his subordinates to report to the official, and because he had some friendship with the county magistrate, soon a team of officials came here with shackles.

Lao Xiucai didn't think that he was here to arrest him at first, but looking at the posture, he thought that he was some kind of vicious Jiangyang thief.

Just as he was waiting to watch the play, the officials came to him with shackles, and they couldn't help but break up and beat him, and after the beating, they took a few hundred taels of silver from him.

The big households who hid from afar and watched the excitement were so happy that they couldn't even save the money for filial piety this time.

Poor old Xiucai, who has never done anything bad in his life, was inexplicably interrogated, and then thrown into death row.

After being closed for about a month, I had a full breakfast and was pushed to the entrance of the vegetable market.

Lao Xiucai was in tears, and he couldn't figure out which royal law he had committed when he was dying.

Maybe it was because his fate should not be extinguished, and the old Xiucai, who was ready to be beheaded, knelt on the torture platform for an hour, and was actually pulled back to the county office.

The person sitting above the county government is no longer the county master, but a young man in his thirties.

The man said a few words casually, then removed the shackles of Lao Xiucai, and with a few more words, he was exempted from the death penalty.

Immediately after his surprised gaze, the county magistrate of the county and the previous big family were escorted to the county office.

After that, there were three or two more sentences, and the people who were going to be beheaded became these two.

Looking at the two people who were being dragged away while wailing, just when Lao Xiucai felt that he was in the clouds, the adult who didn't know what was behind the yamen desk came over and saluted him.

Lao Xiucai was flattered, he only felt that the other party looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

The official, who was wearing a crimson official robe and embroidered with a white pheasant on his chest, opened his mouth to solve Lao Xiucai's confusion:

"Cheng went to Beijing to take the exam that day, passed by your land, and was taken into the village by the bandits of the girl's mountain, and they saw that I didn't have much silver on me, so they wanted to throw it into the mountains and forests to feed the jackals, tigers and leopards.

It was my husband who came to my rescue at that time, and I was able to get out of the cottage alive.

If it weren't for Mr. Tian's life-saving grace, Cheng would not have achieved today's achievements. ”

The official, who claimed to be surnamed Cheng, finished speaking with another salute.

Seeing this, Lao Xiucai hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Only then did he remember that about seven or eight years ago, the cottage did kidnap a scholar, and Lao Xiucai would never ask about this kind of thing.

But seeing that the other party was the same as himself, he was a poor talent, and now he suffered an accident on the way to Beijing to catch the exam, and he felt some sympathy for the same disease.

So he never pleaded for mercy and rarely found the owner of Bai Zhai, Bai Zijing naturally didn't care about a poor scholar who had no oil and water, so he ordered the other party to be released.

Lao Xiucai saw that the scholar's money had been scavenged by other bandits, so he secretly stuffed some more for him and sent him down the mountain.

I didn't want to unintentionally insert willows and willows, but my good thoughts at the beginning have now saved my life.

After that, this Cheng Xiucai was ranked first that year, ranked in the top three, and then rose all the way to the current five-grade master.

This time, as a minister of the Qincha, he inspected Zhongzhou, and as soon as he arrived here, he encountered this incident.

On the way here, Cheng Qin heard a lot about the collusion between local officials and businessmen.

At first, when I heard that someone was going to be beheaded today, I looked through the file and found many suspicious points.

It was expected that the unlucky Pingtou people suffered an unjustified disaster, so they stopped the execution as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, he inadvertently saved his life-saving benefactor, which can be regarded as a cycle of heavenly principles.

Cheng Qincha and Lao Xiucai thanked each other, and Lao Xiucai planned to turn around and leave.

Now that the other party is a high-ranking official, he is a bandit account office, even if he has a lifelong friendship, the two are also different from each other.

At this moment, Cheng Qincha stopped Lao Xiucai and handed him back the silver that had been taken away by the official messenger before.

Lao Xiucai hesitated, but took it, and roughly weighed it, only a little more.

Cheng Qincha saw Lao Xiucai's doubts and explained:

"The government has detained you for more than a month for no reason, and the extra money should be regarded as compensation for you."

Lao Xiucai accepted the silver tremblingly.

Cheng Qin hesitated slightly, but still said what he thought:

"Old gentleman, being in the same stream with bandits is not the way my generation of scholars should go, and I hope that the old man will withdraw as soon as possible, so as not to provoke himself like today in the future."

Loyal to the ear, Lao Xiu knew that the other party was out of good intentions, stroked his beard, and said with a smile:

"Thank you for your concern, the old man almost starved to death that day, it was the white master of Wangshi Village who rewarded him with a mouthful of food, although the saint had the teaching of 'sacrificing his life for righteousness', but how could the old man be a mortal fetus after all, and he could not resist the temptation but could not resist the empty stomach.

So he followed the white self-respect to the mountain, although the little old man entered the cottage, but he had never done anything wrong, in addition to teaching the daughter of the big boss to read all these years, that is, settling accounts.

Over the years, I have seen a lot, but I still can't get used to what the people in the village do, so I asked the big boss to resign and wanted to go back to the county to be a teacher.

To tell you the truth, this silver is the capital that was given to me by Bai Zi when he left. ”

After listening to Lao Xiucai, Cheng Qincha's original worries were swept away, and all of them turned into joy.

Although Lao Xiucai didn't do anything bad, but he was in the company of bandits all day long, and it was hard to guarantee that he would not be involved one day, and he couldn't even leave a whole corpse.

The reason why Cheng Qincha is worried about Lao Xiucai is that in addition to the fact that the other party once saved his life, there is also a sympathy between scholars.

Now that the other party can get lost, it's not too late.

Governor Cheng was pleased, and personally wrote a document for Lao Xiucai, and then stamped his five-grade official seal.

In the dynasty, it was possible to open a private school without official documents, or even a decent teacher, as long as you were literate.

After all, in this era, it is already remarkable that ordinary people can be literate.

But the real famous families will send their children to formal private schools, and the teachers are famous, and the lowest is a showman.

However, the documents of the government can not be given casually, and the seal of a county order that does not seem to be very valuable, the market price is a few hundred taels of silver, not to mention the seal of the five-grade official in front of him.

If it is said that Cheng Qincha was a return to the favor before, then the current behavior is righteousness.

Lao Xiu was only a handful of years old, and it was rare for his eyes to be red once, and he took the document tremblingly, looked at it again and again, and his excitement was beyond words.

Cheng Qincha first sent charcoal in the snow, and now it is the icing on the cake, how can Lao Xiucai not be excited?

……

The magistrate was beheaded, and it took about a month for the new magistrate to be transferred, and during this time, the affairs of the county could only be managed by the governor Qin Chacheng Huaji temporarily.

In just eight years, Chenghuaji has been able to go from a cloth cloth to today's five-grade master, and even become a governor, holding the sword of Shangfang, and holding the power of life and death of a number of officials, which has its own uniqueness.

Just talking about his means of handling the county's government affairs made the local county chief bookkeeper dumbfounded.

In just three days, the county government has a backlog of more than 100 cases, except for a few old cases that cannot be verified, and the rest have been handled cleanly and beautifully.

There was even a homicide case that had been shelved for nearly 20 years, and he found clues in the file, and he arrested the murderer.

After that, he organized the people to dig ditches and divert the route, and did a water conservancy for the benefit of future generations.

His series of measures have won the praise of the local people, and in addition to praise, they can't help but be reluctant.

I don't know when this adult, who really deserves the word "parent official", will leave.

During the period, Chenghua Ji was empty, so he carried a pot of flower carvings and went to Lao Xiucai to play chess.

Lao Xiucai saw that the other party had no scruple at all, and gradually let go of his restraints, and the two came and went and became rare New Year's friends.

With the help of Cheng Huaji, Lao Xiucai found a suitable courtyard, which could be used as a private school for teaching with a little repair.

Lao Xiucai has never made any friends in his life, and the closest to him is his apprentice Bai Yuniang, and now at the age of half a hundred years, he can meet Chenghuaji, who has unlimited scenery and a more unlimited future, which is also a great blessing in life.

On the day of the establishment of the private school, under the repeated invitation of Lao Xiucai, Cheng Huaji personally wrote three golden characters of "Qiansu Pavilion" on the plaque of the private school.

Qiansu Pavilion is taken from "There are thousands of bells in the book".

The ancients persuaded to learn, often saying that there is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house in the book.

But in Cheng Huaji's view, scholars should be strict with themselves, and should aim to benefit the people, rather than pursuing glory and wealth such as Yan Ruyu's Golden House.

In his opinion, only "Qian Zhongsu" can conform to his wishes, which is also what he has been pursuing since he became an official.

When the people saw that the adult they admired personally inscribed the private school, and Lao Xiucai charged a fair fee, they sent the children to the Qiansu Pavilion one after another.

In just three days, the Qiansu Pavilion was full of students.

At this time, the new county magistrate had also taken office, and Cheng Qincha completed his mission here.

At the time of separation, Lao Xiucai sent it again and again, he knew that he couldn't write decent verses, so he had to recite a sentence of the ancestors' "Confidant in the sea, if the end of the world is next to each other" to express his heart.

Bai Yuniang went to see Lao Xiucai when he went down the mountain later, he was full of energy at that time, his face was ruddy, and he completely lost the submissiveness when he was in the cottage, maybe this is what he really wants to do.

……

Bai Yuniang didn't know much about the uninvited son-in-law, only that her father respected that person very much, and the two chatted until midnight in Juyi Hall last night.

The appearance of that person, Bai Yuniang only glanced at it in a hurry, but this glance was comparable to a shock.

The other party is not at all like the other people in the village who are five big and three rough, but he is a little handsome and does not look like a man, and his manners are elegant, and he looks like he has read a book.

It is a woman of Huaichun's age who meets a man who looks gentle and elegant, and his appearance is also extremely brilliant, if he can't say that he is not moved at all.

So when Bai Zijing asked her to deliver food to that guest, she agreed without hesitation.

Bai Yuniang came to the outside of the house where the guests were, and the corners of her mouth inadvertently pulled a smile, and then gently knocked on the door.

After "Please come in" came from inside the house, she straightened her clothes a little and gently pushed the door open.

The house was temporarily vacated, and it was not large, but it was mostly occupied by desks and bookshelves, and the only wooden bed was placed in the corner, which was slightly thin.

As soon as Bai Yuniang entered the house, she saw that the man was looking down at the book, and things like books that should not have appeared in the bandits' den were all left by Lao Xiucai.

The man raised his head and looked at the visitor, and the two looked at each other instantly.

Seeing the other party's face carved like beautiful jade, Bai Yuniang only felt as if her heart had been hit by something, and she couldn't help jumping up.

She only felt that her cheeks were a little hot, and she quickly looked away, lowered her eyes and said:

"My dad asked me to bring some food to my son."

After speaking, she put the food box on the large desk, and she could not say a word more.

The handsome boy smiled slightly and said:

"There's Miss Lao."

After saying that, there was no sound on his side.

Bai Yuniang waited for a while and didn't wait for the next step, so she looked up boldly, and found that the other party had already lowered her head and continued to read the book.

A faint sense of loss flashed in her heart, and after a little thought, she asked:

"I wonder what Childe is reading?"

The man put down the book in his hand, looked at the woman, and said with a smile in his eyes:

"A niche book, called "Shuyulu", it's quite interesting, the girl can read it when she has time."

Seeing the smile in the other party's eyes, Bai Yuniang's heart beat faster.
