Chapter 425: Wu Scholar
Ding Xue smiled and played a witty voice when she spoke, although she spoke heavily, the smile on her face always gave people the feeling that she was joking.
Scary is scary, but there is room for negotiation.
Old man Ding was full of aura, and although he didn't say much, it made people shudder.
Where has the little daughter-in-law seen this meeting, not to mention the shaking of the hand holding the dried fish, but the legs hidden in the wide trouser tube are shaking.
Fortunately, Old Man Ding understood that sending her into the yamen or something was just a joke, so he stepped forward after a cold look.
Ding Xue was slightly good, following the footsteps of Old Man Ding, Ding Lao Wu was a little uncomfortable, and his unfriendly gaze looked straight for a few seconds before turning away.
Regarding her reputation, Ding Xuewei had given up a long time ago, otherwise she would not have made Li's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law ugly, but she didn't care about it and didn't care about others, but others would affect her mood.
Along the way, many people criticized their masters.
Fortunately, these idlers who either gathered at the door or sat in the courtyard were more sensible than those who met at the mouth of the alley, and when they saw her, they had something to say, or waited for their grandfather to walk by, or whispered to each other, and they did not shout loudly, of course, they did not pull people to ask.
Although others didn't come forward to disturb or shout loudly, the disgusted gaze that was inadvertently revealed when the grandiose dodge was very uncomfortable.
"Why don't I wait outside?"
After finding Wu Xue's house, Ding Xuewei stood at the door with some hesitation.
This Wu family is indeed conspicuous enough, along the way, the people who pass by either a simple partial house, or a narrow and crowded courtyard, their door is slightly wider, the yard is quite large, the peach trees in the courtyard are luxuriant, and the crown of the half tree hangs outside the door.
Old man Ding, who raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, flashed his eyes, turned his head and spoke sharply.
"If he cared about these false names, he would have been killed by a head-on."
"That's a good thing Dad said." Ding Lao Wu's face was complicated.
What is this called... Six of one and half a dozen of the other?
Wu Xuezhi is a widow and widow who carves three relatives, and their family is not innocent!
Where is he embarrassed to dislike his own family.
"Alright, don't look for trouble."
Ding Xuewei and Ding Lao Wu looked at each other quite strangely.
Accept for yourself that you have a new idea that goes beyond the world's normative moral framework.
They... It's really a human kiss!
She had to say her admiration.
"Let's go, if you can go by the way to lead the way today, Ming'er won't have a headache." Old man Ding didn't give her a chance to back down, and raised his hand to knock on the door.
It was also a coincidence that he raised his hand, and the wooden door creaked open.
The three members of the Ding family who were outside the door were not surprised, and they were waiting to open the door, which was just right. In the door, when the door was opened, it was a thrill to the baby on the waist of the old man Ding.
Stepping back, he stepped on the man behind him.
The boy who followed closely behind immediately showed a painful expression, turned his body away, and hit the people around him.
"Ouch!"
"Ahh
"Whew!"
Of the four children, three fell to the ground, and the movement was not small.
The old man, who had been cleaning up in the study, quickly walked to the window.
While seeing the babies who were wrestling in the group, I also saw the three masters of the Ding family, and the three of them were helping the children up.
The accident was at the door, and it was easy to guess how things would develop.
He put down the book in hand, quickly walked to the door, and walked out of the study.
"You guys, what's the matter?"
The old man looked natural, and even if he was a stranger who entered the house for no reason, he remained polite and friendly.
At this moment, several children had already stood up, and they all restrained their expressions when they saw the old man approaching.
The third master of the Ding family and the children slightly distanced themselves by two or three steps.
He asked politely, and the third master of the Ding family also politely saluted.
"The surname is Ding, and he is the in-law of the Xu family who came from Kaixian County, these two, one is in Xia'er, and the other is the eldest granddaughter." It was very simple, the old man introduced himself and said: "I have come here to invite a pedant to teach the children homework." ”
“··· A relative of Xu Jiang's baby's family? Wu Xuexue pondered for a moment, and asked not very surely.
When he was asked to teach, he automatically ignored it.
Mrs. Xu helped Wu Xuexue wash her clothes, and her family experience was also very peculiar, it was not strange for this person to have an impression of her, but it was strange that he said Xu Jiang's name at once.
Scholars are very proud, and their parents usually don't have anything to do with them.
The Xu family affair is too prominent, and he knows that it is not strange, but Xu Jiang's name, if he doesn't ask, Mrs. Xu will not come to him and say it.
Before entering the door, the three members of the Ding family were still thinking about how difficult this mission was, and as soon as Xu Jiang came out, Gu was much more confident.
"Yes. My granddaughter is a cousin with him. Old man Ding turned his head slightly and pointed at Ding Xuewei.
Ding Xue said her mind generously.
"My cousin admires pedants very much, so I want to ask them to be his teacher."
Sir, teacher.
It seems to be a similar title, but the difference in meaning behind it is huge.
Sir, for the respect that ordinary students have for their teachers.
Teacher is the honorific title of the apprentice to the master.
The meaning of the teacher is the same as that of the master, once you worship the disciple, you will share the honor and disgrace.
“··· You go back first. ”
It took Wu Xuezhu a while to regain his breath.
At this moment, he had to admit that he was nervous and excited, but there were regrets in all kinds of moods.
That is, outsiders, only have the courage to invite themselves!
"Come and sit."
After sending the students out of the door, he calmed down and invited them to the guest room.
This courtyard is not only wider than the houses I have seen along the way, about half an acre in area, and its architecture is also very regular.
In addition to the main room, the east and west wings are the kitchen and sundries, and there is no superfluous construction.
The courtyard is clean and clean, and the middle hall where there are no guests at a glance is spotless.
When Old Man Ding sat down, Ding Lao Wu and Ding Xue put down the things they brought, and he said very calmly: "Wait a minute, the old man will go to boil the kettle of water." ”
Someone brings gifts to the door, and returning refreshments is the basic courtesy of the host.
actually respected the other party, Old Man Ding did not refuse.
Wu Xuexue withdrew from the door, and Ding Jiaye waited silently.
Thinking that the scholar was accustomed to doing such tedious work, he entered the door with tea in a short time.
Very clean and simple ceramic bowl.
Welcome guests to the water and give away tea.
During the symbolic tasting of the three Ding family masters, he sat on the main seat and waited patiently.
"I don't know what the pedant thinks?" When Old Man Ding put down the tea bowl, he asked bluntly.
The three clothes of the Ding family can be regarded as exquisite, especially Ding Xuewei, there is not much embroidery on the dress, but the fabric is of high quality.
Pay attention to people, and speak tactfully, Old Man Ding's opening was quite surprising.
After pondering for a few seconds, Wu Xuexuan came to his senses.
"I'm afraid the old man will lose the love of Master Ding."
"Don't worry, the matter of pedantry, please be a pedant, it has been approved by the county magistrate." Old man Ding was like a reckless man who didn't know how to write politely, and directly pierced the window paper.
We all know about you, and we have the heart to invite you, and it has been dealt with, you just nod.
A roar every day, begging for tickets and collections...
