A blunt counterattack is pretty cool.

But I just walked down the winding waterfront promenade that connects the water pavilion to the shore.

Blown by the cool breeze in the park, Ouyang Rong felt a little apologetic in his heart.

He's cool, but won't this make it difficult for Da Lang?

As for Yuan Xiangshan, who seemed to chase out of the water pavilion behind him, Ouyang Rong didn't care at all.

Then.

Puff ——!

Behind Ouyang Rong, a sound that seemed to be falling into the water came.

"Come on, help, Mr. tripped and fell into the water......"

Immediately, the scholars shouted from behind.

Ouyang Rong, Yan Liulang and others were stunned.

Stop and look back.

I saw that the low water-friendly trail with the railing was in the middle of the position, and there was a group of scholars lying around the railing, stretching out their hands in vain to a group of struggling "waves" in the water below, looking up left and right, and shouting anxiously.

It seems that this will save people.

Ouyang Rong was speechless, and before he could raise his feet, he saw the figure of Su Dalang, who was originally bowing his head and contemplating at the table, rushing out of the water pavilion for the first time.

"Teacher!"

Puff ——!

A loud shout was followed by the sound of falling water.

Su Dalang jumped into the pond without saying a word.

The golden carp scattered in all directions.

The corner of Ouyang Rong's mouth, who was just about to say something, twitched,

Because right now, there are two struggling "waves" in the pond.

In vain, one was added.

Ouyang Rong and others: "......"

Scholars: "......"

Shadow on the promenade not far away: "......"

"Help...... Grunt...... Save...... Save the teacher...... Gollum"

Su Dalang's intermittent voice came from the water.

You don't know how to swim and jump a hammer.

While complaining in his heart, Ouyang Rong had already turned around and rushed back to the waterfront trail, throwing the robe he had taken off to Yan Liulang, who was stunned.

He jumped into the water with the shirtless Liu Ashan.

"I'll catch the big man, you save the old man."

……

The farce by the water pavilion outside Juxian Garden ended with Ouyang Rong, Liu Ashan and others catching up Su Dalang and Yuan Xiangshan and others.

The follow-up incident seems to have disturbed the lord and wife of the Su family.

However, after saving people and being thanked by Master Su, Ouyang Rong did not stay long.

After confirming that Su Dalang and Yuan Xiangshan were safe, they left that day.

Su Dalang's body is young and strong, and he is back to life after resting all morning.

However, Yuan Xiangshan was slightly more serious, drowning in a coma until the evening, and had a low-grade fever.

Subsequently, according to the doctor invited by the Longcheng Medical Center, this old Mr. Yuan was invaded by cold air, and it was not a big deal to live and warm for many days.

The day after falling into the water to save people, after Ouyang Rong got off duty, he took some fruits that Wei Lai had prepared and went to take a look.

In the antique ward with the green smoke of the incense burner, he saw a tall young man serving soup and medicine, kneeling in front of the bed.

Ouyang Rong wanted to search his intestines and scrape his stomach to comfort him, but Su Dalang comforted him apologetically.

He also sincerely apologized for his teacher's previous arrogance and offense.

Seeing that Ouyang Rong was speechless, Su Dalang coughed twice, revealing the funny look when his friends got along before, squeezing his eyebrows and making his eyes reassuring.

This made Ouyang Rong a little embarrassed.

In the following days, Ouyang Rong came to visit every time he was on duty in the evening, and he could see Su Dalang busy in front of the sickbed.

Listening to the meaning revealed in the words of the other scholars, Su Dalang also adhered to the sickbed late at night and did not relax.

For these, Ouyang Rong took in all of them and was silent.

In the evening of this day, he came over again for a walk.

Ouyang Rong couldn't help but admonish: "Da Lang, you ...... Pay attention to your body, take care of people to take care of people, physical health is the first thing, don't make yourself sick. ”

"Thank you Lianghan for your concern."

In front of the table in the front hall of the room, Su Dalang wiped his hands with a rag that were stained with some medicinal soup, rubbed his tired eyes covered with bloodshots, and shook his head with a wry smile:

"It's okay, I was just guarding by the bedside, I read some books by the way, and I saw that half of it was sleepy for a while...... In the past few days, I have been a little busy, and the teacher's old illness has relapsed, so I have to keep an eye on it for the past two days and nights. ”

Ouyang Rong glanced at his friend's somewhat messy crooked crown and sideburns, as well as the unshaven on his face, his face hesitated, and reminded:

"It's not wrong to respect the teacher and take care of the teacher, but you can't exhaust yourself, you can't hold it, and occasionally you can let the scholar or someone else do it for you, which is not slack and unfilial."

"Understood."

Su Dalang nodded, and then couldn't help but look at some of the fruit snacks that Ouyang brought.

Ouyang Rong smiled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Su Dalang looked at his face, and bowed his position sideways to signal, "Won't Lianghan go in and take a look at the teacher?" ”

"No, the Tao is not the same." Ouyang shook his head lightly.

Ouyang Rong said that he had come to visit these days, but he was more like he had come to visit Su Dalang, he stopped in the front hall, and did not enter the inner room with heavy curtains to visit Yuan Xiangshan.

Su Dalang couldn't help but take a step forward, grabbed his friend's sleeve and confided:

"Lianghan, in fact, the teacher is strict and strict, and occasionally his words are not very good, but he is really good to me, and it is also to my family, the teacher was dismissed from the official position of the Ministry of Rites, and it was also because we ...... it"

Gurgle-

Suddenly, there was a slight sound in the back room, as if someone had gently knocked the foot of the stool.

Su Dalang, who had his back to the back room, spoke.

"What sound?"

Ouyang Rong looked behind Su Dalang with a curious expression.

"It's okay, maybe the teacher is awake."

Su Dalang shook his head.

"Oh......"

Ouyang Rong didn't care about the matter of that old Yuan senior, the topic turned back, and his tone was puzzled:

"What did Da Lang just say because of you? Also, how could Yuan Lao's good and dignified person be removed from his official position? Does that mean ......?"

"No, no, no."

Su Dalang hurriedly waved his hand, paused, and explained:

"In fact, it is not considered to be dismissed, it was the teacher who resigned himself, there were some turmoil in the Luoyang court back then, the teacher was stubborn, the political views were different, and he resigned and went into hiding, just because our family also left Luoyang, and my father was familiar with the teacher, so he hired a teacher for me and taught me to read in Juxian Garden."

He paused, and then added:

"Lianghan, maybe it's a little similar to what happened to you, that day in the Water Pavilion, the teacher seemed a little point-insightful, and Lianghan was angry."

Ouyang Rong looked at him, nodded, and didn't say anything.

However, I have a deep understanding of the turmoil in the Luoyang court mentioned by Su Dalang.

From the two saints of the year, to the later abolition of the new emperor, and then to the later Linchao system, and finally the change to the Zhou ...... The Luoyang court has indeed been in turmoil over the years, and it has changed batch after batch of people.

This Mr. Yuan's experience is not strange.

Su Dalang suddenly mentioned: "Lianghan, that day in the Water Pavilion, the strange article you left before leaving......"

Ouyang Rong stood up and said with a smile:

"It's all said, it was given by a senior when I was studying in the past, and the last time I saw Da Lang have the ancient style of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao, I sighed for a while, and transferred it to Da Lang."

Ouyang Rong shook his head lightly, didn't pay much attention to it, and left.

Su Dalang hurriedly got up and sent Ouyang Rong out.

Seeing Ouyang Rong's back disappear in the distance, the eldest man of the Su family breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and went back to the house, his steps a little hurried......

Giving away the fruit, Ouyang Rong walked on the corridor empty-handed, and after being a little farther away from the courtyard, he suddenly stopped under a corridor with wind chimes.

"Something isn't right......"

Jingle - The dark wind blew the bells, and the crisp sound vaguely drowned out the murmur of the flickering man in the face of the porch.

"Being able to hire a resigned court official as a private school teacher for a long time is not something that ordinary rich and noble families can do......"

Staring at the night falling from the sky outside the corridor, Ouyang Rong shook his head lightly:

"This Master Su and his teacher are world friends, I heard the little sister say, and they have also read together...... Could it be that he is also a child of a high-ranking family with five surnames and seven hopes? But why is the surname Su?

"Not to mention the five surnames and seven wangs, there doesn't seem to be this surname among the big families in Guanzhong and Liangjing......

"Su ...... Su ......"

……

The house in the quiet courtyard where Mr. Yuan is recuperating.

After sending Ouyang Rong away, Su Dalang rubbed his tired right cheek and walked into the back room without raising his head.

As soon as the curtain was opened, several figures inside were revealed.

"Father, Mother, Sister......"

Su Dalang called a few times familiarly.

I saw that the four members of the Su family were all in the back room, standing or sitting.

And the conversation between Ouyang Rong and Su Dalang in the front hall just now naturally fell on the ears of several people word for word.

Su Xian, the eldest man of the Su family, dressed as a rich man, nodded kindly to Su Dalang who returned.

Su Bao'er had bright red plum blossom makeup on her brows, and at this time she was sitting on the embroidery stool by the window like a lady, holding an article with handwriting in her hand, and looking at it with her eyes down.

In the face of Brother A's greeting, he only bowed his head slightly.

Su Dalang couldn't help but glance at Ah Mei, who was dressed as a lady, and the empty stool opposite her.

Ah Mei was obviously dressed in a blue and white full-breasted skirt, sitting upright in a fair lady-like posture, studying Brother Lianghan's strange writings, but under her wide long skirt, there was a little foot wearing pink embroidered shoes that gently lifted the skirt, and the half of the jade foot hooked the wooden leg of the embroidered stool on the opposite side.

It looks like a lady with some playfulness.

But in fact, Ah Mei is not a lady at all...... Su Dalang, who was bullied by Ah Mei, sighed in his heart.

Just now when he was talking with Ouyang Rong outside, it should have been Ah Mei who picked up the embroidery stool with her foot and interrupted what he was about to say.

But Su Dalang was not angry.

Now that he thinks about it, it was really inappropriate before, after all, Ah Mei is a yellow flower girl who has not left the cabinet, and it is not suitable to meet strange men outside, even if it is a friend of Ah Brother, he must avoid suspicion a little.

In addition to Su Bao'er, there is also a middle-aged woman in the house, who looks like a half-aged.

She drew two slender eyebrows, with a round face and thin lips, and she was obviously not tall, not as good as Master Su and Su Dalang, who were quite slender and had an elegant temperament. But the woman stood in the middle of the room, even with her back to the crowd, and no one ignored her.

When pursing his lips slightly, with a pair of eyes that love to squint at people, his temperament is very sharp.

Wei Mei did not respond to the greeting of her eldest son, nor did she sit on the empty embroidery stool opposite Su Bao'er, she stood in front of the window, her index finger slightly opened the curtain, as if she was carefully looking at the distant back on the corridor, her expression was interesting.

Su Bao'er didn't raise her head and asked, "What does Mother look at?" ”

Wei Mei didn't think about it, and immediately replied: "Look at the son-in-law." ”

“……”

Su Bao'er ignored it, let out a light "oh", and reacted flatly.

Wei Mei didn't even need to look back to know how this girl was reacting, chuckled, nodded and asked.

"What, don't want to get married? The family can't afford to support you, so let's get married and find a big boss to take over. ”

"If my mother and father find it, please let me know, and my daughter will take more things at home to take away, so that this wronged person will lose a little less."

"Okay, you are a girl who eats inside and out, and I will designate you to marry in the future."

Wei Mei scolded with a smile, stretched out an index finger and poked Su Bao'er's smooth forehead.

The so-called son-in-law just now is naturally just a joke.

Su Xian smiled bitterly and glanced at Su Dalang, the intimate bickering and the way of getting along with the mother and daughter were naturally familiar to them.

As for the status of the family...... Just look at their honest expressions.

At this moment, Su Dalang turned his head to look in the direction of Yuan Xiangshan's sickbed, and couldn't help but say:

"Teacher, you're awake!"

Su Xian and Su Dalang stepped forward together.

On the bed, Mr. Yuan, who had been asleep for a long time, saw someone coming from the house, and his face was a little flattered.

The old man hurriedly stood up tremblingly, as if he was about to salute his sick body, but he was grabbed by Su Xian's withered hand.

Su Xian and Su Dalang comforted him loudly, and Mr. Yuan burst into tears.

There was a harmonious atmosphere around the sickbed.

It's just that compared to the amiability of the Su family's father and son, Wei Mei and Su Bao'er didn't react much.

Su Bao'er still lowered her head and admired this article called "Shi Said".

Wei Mei looked at the window for a while before retracting his gaze.

"This kid is indeed handsome, and his demeanor is good, he has the demeanor of his mentor Xie Xun in Luojing, but it is a little different, his style is more decisive and resolute, and he is an embryo who can do great things.

Wei Mei nodded:

"No wonder he was able to bring down the Liu family in Longcheng with his bare hands in just two months, that Liu Ziwen, the concubine had seen it before, was a not simple character, but he didn't expect it to die cleanly in the hands of Ouyang Lianghan."

Su Bao'er gently closed the scroll in her hand, this article that Ouyang Rong gave to Su Dalang has been read by her over and over again in the past two days.

The plum blossom girl looked up and added:

"He's a good teacher, too. It is beneficial to Brother Yu, and you can try to solicit him. ”

Wei Mei couldn't help but glance at the young girl who liked to comment on characters indifferently.

Not long after, under the comfort of the Su family's father and son, Mr. Yuan was coaxed to sleep and rest.

Su Xian, Su Dalang, as well as Wei Mei and Su Bao'er, the four of them left the inner room together, returned to a relatively private flower hall in the inner house of Su Mansion, sent off the people, and the family sat down.

"Whoa."

Su Bao'er stretched out her hand and handed the scroll of the article in her hand to Su Xian and Wei Mei.

The couple took the article one after another, and after bowing their heads and reading it, they couldn't help but look up and look at each other.

They were silent for a long time.

Su Xian and Wei Mei are not unknowledgeable, even if they don't have the talent of eight buckets, they still have and are proficient in the most basic appreciation ability.

On the other side, Su Bao'er turned his head to Su Dalang and said crisply:

"The birthday gift in a few days is an opportunity, Brother knows what to do, right?"

Su Dalang was stunned.

Forced to code outside the word and go home tomorrow. Unfamiliar keyboards, computers, input methods are not very handy, there may be typos, good brothers if you see it can be marked a ha~
