Chapter 108: Everyone Loves Master Su
felt that what Li Kui said was very reasonable, but he was afraid that there would be pits everywhere, and he would fall down if he was not careful.
Zhou Yuan thought about it, and felt that it was still necessary to understand Li Kui's true thoughts, he couldn't let this kid spin him around, and then he didn't have any purpose, right? This is not in line with Li Kui's style.
With a deep sigh, Zhou Yuan asked Li Kui worriedly: "You said so much, you won't tell me that this small box in front of me is a strange thing that changes the fate of Yishui, right?" ”
"God, teacher, you are really a god, you can guess it as soon as you guess." Li Kui happily cooperated with Zhou Yuan's reaction.
Zhou Yuan shook off his clothes and snorted coldly: "Don't pat yourself on the back, don't eat this set for the teacher." ”
"Look, teacher!" While speaking, Li Kui opened the salt shaker and sent the salt as fine as white sand to Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan, who had never cooked, was a little stunned when he looked at the salt, feeling that his IQ was a little declining, and he couldn't guess what kind of medicine was sold in Li Kui's gourd. After carefully studying it for a while, there was still no result, and he was puzzled: "This is salt?" ”
Li Kui was amazed in his heart, in the end, he was born as a young master, and he almost didn't even recognize the salt. This is the life he dreamed of! It's a pity that my family is surrounded by walls and has nothing, so I have no choice but to work hard...... Alas, he was born to work hard, and there was no time to be idle.
Li Kui nodded hurriedly and said, "That's right, the teacher's eyes are like torches, and this thing is salt." However, this salt is different from other salts, known as snowflake salt, its white is as pure as snowflakes, delicate as sand, and it is a rare seasoning holy product. ”
"Don't move the holy product, I'll taste it!"
Zhou Yuan reminded Li Kui not to use words indiscriminately, he is not like the chef Fat Chun is honest, he is just a taste. Unfortunately, he didn't taste it the first time.
So he tasted it for a while, then frowned and took a sip of tea to suppress the salty taste in his mouth, but Zhou Yuan still didn't taste it.
This is embarrassing, Li Kuixin said, such a good salt, but I didn't taste it?
As a teacher, with the dignity of a teacher, Zhou Yuan decisively rejected Li Kui's kindness to uncover the answer and tasted it for the third time. Eating salt consistently is a sinful process, although the first saltiness is not so abrupt. However, as the number of times accumulates, it becomes a heavy burden on the palate. Fortunately, Zhou Yuan finally learned to be obedient this time, he thought about a lot of words about the taste of salt, and then combined with his own discussion of the almost lack of condiments, he came to a conclusion - not bitter.
Bitter salt, bitter salt, saltiness seems to be born with bitterness.
Zhou Yuan finally discovered the characteristics of the snowflake salt sent by Li Kui, and at this time, both the master and apprentice wiped a handful of sweat on their foreheads. Zhou Yuan's heart was weak, he finally discovered the mystery of salt, or with the help of words, which made him feel very guilty, and he did not know the suffering of the people so clearly. And Li Kui was afraid that Zhou Yuan would eat his throat, and in the end, he would suffer by himself.
Zhou Yuan was difficult to judge the quality of snowflake salt, so he could only ask Li Kui weakly: "This salt is very good, not bitter?" ”
"Better than the salt on the market, it is the purest salt extracted from the secret recipe, there is no bitter taste, there is no salt associated with the halogen, the use of this salt to taste, can keep people away from the harm of halogen, to achieve the effect of prolonging life." Li Kui stubbornly explained salt as a health care product, but he didn't expect Zhou Yuan to agree, but then asked a sentence that made Li Kui dumbfounded:
"This secret recipe is going to be offered?"
Li Kui's strange eyes seemed to accuse Zhou Yuan of being ignorant of the world: Your conscience was eaten by a dog, can you say such nonsense?
As soon as the words came out, Zhou Yuan also seemed to feel a mistake, and sneered: "This naturally doesn't work, this secret recipe is worth a lot of money, if you set up a workshop, maybe you can really make the people of Yishui County profitable." Say, since you brought salt, you naturally have a set of rhetoric, don't hide it, your teacher and I are not those unreasonable people. ”
Li Kui leaned in and said, "Teacher, although the snowflake salt is good, it is not famous!" ”
Zhou Yuanwan said with a smile: "That's right, since this thing comes from Yishui, I will give a poem to make this thing famous." In addition, you can rest assured that although the teacher is humble and light-hearted, there are many colleagues and classmates, and it is not difficult to write a letter to recommend one or two. ”
Zhou Yuan felt that he had worked very hard to do this, but looking at Li Kui's expression, it seemed that it was not the same as he expected.
The people of Baizhang Village always have the ability to talk to death, and Li Kui also has it, but he learned to talk nonsense before, and after his eloquence improved by leaps and bounds, he lost these embarrassments. But when Zhou Yuan expressed his full support, Li Kui still stupidly disgusted and said: "Teacher, the disciple is not a buried teacher, it's just that your old reputation is a little worse, it's better to let the master and ancestor write such a poem." ”
The master and apprentice stared at each other, and neither of them spoke.
Li Kui knew that it was not easy to convince the teacher Zhou Yuan to let him go to Yingzhou. His reputation here in Zhou Yuan is about to go bankrupt, and there are too many bad deeds that mainly cause trouble, so that Zhou Yuan doesn't feel at ease to let Li Kui go out.
However, Li Kui thought of a remedy, and asked tentatively: "Teacher, you can write a letter to the old man, explain this matter, and ask the ancestor to write a poem to correct his name." ”
Zhou Yuan touched his chin, could he tell his only disciple that he didn't have such a big face in front of his teacher Su Shi at all?
No!
This is related to his prestige in front of his disciples, which makes him very entangled.
At the same time, Zhou Yuan couldn't help but introspect himself, could it be that his poems really have no merit at all? Don't even have the talent to make a name for snowflake salt? The only disciple dared to dislike his talent, which was simply a big rebellion.
But when I wrote a letter to my teacher, I was worried about being rejected. When the time comes, he will really not be able to raise his head in front of Li Kui.
Zhou Yuan was helpless, so he decided to slow down for a while, write a letter to the teacher Su Shi to test it, and then make a decision: "You rush to go, I'm afraid you will disturb the bachelor and his old man, slowly, wait for the teacher to write a letter to talk about it." ”
This wait was ten days and half a month, but fortunately, the two places were quite close, and the letter was sent back soon. It's okay not to read the letter, but after reading the letter, Zhou Yuan's nose is almost crooked. The teacher didn't reply at all, but Shushi next to the teacher replied to him, telling him that Master Su was very busy, so don't disturb his old man if he has nothing to do.
This letter made Zhou Yuan angry enough, and Zhou Yuan immediately instructed the officials to find Li Kui.
Li Zhuang, Li Kui's lips were dipped in melon seed skins everywhere, and he was knocking melon seeds leisurely, watching Liu Baosheng beat his son-in-law with a smile. Liu Baosheng was really angry, and the two sons-in-law went to the capital, not only leaking the old bottom, but also causing a disaster to go home. If you don't teach them a lesson, it's simply intolerable.
After the first lunar month, the wicker has begun to soften, and when it is stained with water, it is a blood mark on the back.
Liu Baosheng's two sons-in-law one snorted and chirped in pain, but the other said angrily to Li Kui: "Brother Li Kui, we are all lifelong friends, and it doesn't matter if you don't help say two good words, you are still watching the excitement and talking cool words, are you still human?" ”
The one who spoke was Liu Baosheng's second son-in-law Cheng Zhijie, who couldn't find the north anymore who was happy in Bianliang, but he didn't expect to be suddenly brought back by his father-in-law's personal guards, and he was about to be beaten as soon as he came back.
is still being beaten in front of everyone, not at home, Cheng Zhijie has a lot of opinions about this.
It's better to keep the door behind closed doors.
Feeling Liu Baosheng's urgent need for a sense of security, Lijiazhuang has Li Quan, which is simply the safest place for Liu Baosheng. A few days ago, he took his family to settle down in Lijiazhuang.
There's no way, Li Kui, this kid can't stay still, and runs around all day long. It's Li Quan, who is steady and honest, and doesn't like to run around. If it weren't for Li Quan's lack of spirituality, Liu Baosheng would even have the idea of recruiting a son-in-law.
No matter what Cheng Zhijie said, he was also a captain of Zhiguo, a military attache of the seventh grade, and he was thrown out in disgrace, and his face could not stand it.
As for Qin Wenguang, his body bones were already weak, and he couldn't stand the beating, so he fell to the ground and snorted.
They also know that they are embarrassed in the capital, but if they can't stand it, they can't control themselves. Thinking of blending into the circle of generals and literati, he went to the people one by one. When I heard that my old father-in-law had almost been assassinated by an assassin, I came back to my senses. They are not friends at all, but mortal enemies.
This year, there are only pumpkin seeds, no sunflower seeds, and it is not refreshing to eat. broke another melon seed, which made Li Kui, who was anxious, angrily shake off the melon seed in his hand, and shouted: "Uncle, you rest, I'll help you!" ”
Cheng Zhijie was so frightened that Liu Baosheng beat him, at most, it hurt for a while, Li Kui, this kid didn't do it lightly or heavily, but he was really going to kill someone.
"Brother Xian, don't come nonsense, oops, I'm going to ask for my grandfather's life!"
As soon as the whip went down, Cheng Zhijie writhed on the ground like a fat green worm.
"Brother Kui, is the eldest master looking for you? Come with me! ”
The official covered his hat, rushed to Li Kui, and dragged Li Kui in the direction of the county seat.
The moment he saw Zhou Yuan, Li Kui rubbed his eyes as if he didn't know him, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Teacher, who are you angry with?" ”
Zhou Yuan sat on the chair with a lot of luck, his face was red and white for a while, obviously stimulated.
There are not many people who can make Zhou Yuan angry, on the ground in Yizhou, Zhang Dian is one, in addition to him, he is the general judge, but since Zhang Dian came, the general judgment of Yizhou has no sense of existence, it is estimated that Zhang Dian is the most unpleasant Zhou Yuan, followed by his deputy Tongju.
Gentleman, there must be calm in daily life.
Zhou Yuan let out a long breath and softened his mind and said, "Aren't you going to Yingzhou?" It's time for the teacher! ”
"Teacher, didn't you say that it was inappropriate to go rashly?" Li Kui felt that Zhou Yuan must have been stimulated, and he began to talk nonsense, but he could clearly feel Zhou Yuan's resistance to him going to Yingzhou. But suddenly he agreed, which made him wonder a little, could it be that there was a story that he didn't know?
Zhou Yuan sank his face and said: "Now it's not presumptuous, the teacher has already passed the letter, and it will naturally not be abrupt for you to go." It's just that...... It's just that when you see the bachelor, you have to beware of the villain next to the bachelor. ”
"Then I'll go......" Li Kui was still a little skeptical. As for the villain next to Mr. Su? Hehe, I haven't seen the majesty of Second Master Li.
Zhou Yuan waved his hand impatiently and said, "Go and come back quickly, but Li Quan, you can't take it, you two go out together, maybe you will get into trouble again." ”
Gotcha!
Li Kui took the letter from his teacher Zhou Yuan and returned to Zhuangzi non-stop, without taking Li Quan, with Han Dahu, all the same. After returning to Zhuangzi, after he announced that he was going to Yingzhou, Han Dahu immediately nodded in agreement.
Qin Wenguang, who was lying on the soft couch and was taking medicine, snorted coldly: "Go to Yingzhou, I don't know the place well, I don't even have a friend, if it weren't for my brother, I would have been injured, I could have recommended a few good friends, all of whom are people with heads and faces on the ground in Yingzhou." ”
Li Kui smiled: "My ancestor was an official in Yingzhou, isn't it unfamiliar with life?" ”
"How big an official is an official?" Qin Wenguang has always looked down on Li Kui, thinking that Li Kui is rude, has no literati manners, and lacks the bearing that a gentleman should have.
Anyway, it's just horizontal and vertical.
Li Kui didn't want to see him either, thinking that Qin Wenguang was pretentious and unhappy. He wouldn't be used to the eldest son-in-law of the Liu family, and sneered: "Yingzhou Zhizhou Bachelor Su, you know, right?" That's my ancestor. ”
Qin Wenguang looked at Li Kui in a daze, and muttered, "Master Su is your ancestor?" ”
Suddenly, he jumped up from the soft couch, and his face that was hurt by the wound was distorted, but he grabbed Li Kui and said, "Brother, take me there!" ”
