The old man said bluntly, Lu Liangsheng was stunned when he stood in place, and the toad who had just wanted to get out of the small door put down the flippers that he had raised, and couldn't help but turn his head sideways and stick to the crack in the door.

The rustling of the old camphor in the small courtyard entered the quiet room, Lu Liangsheng came back to his senses, laughed dryly, and hurriedly invited Min Changwen to sit down, took the cleaned tea set on the table, mixed it with water and put it in his palm, heated it in a moment, and brought it to the old man.

"Squire-sama, why did you suddenly talk about this? ”

For the marriage, Lu Liangsheng felt a little embarrassed, he didn't sit or stand, but fortunately, the old man didn't feel anything, on the contrary, he asked him to sit down and talk quite enthusiastically, coughed his throat, and said softly:

"Let's not talk about anything else, virtuous nephew, your mentor is nominally my staff, but you know that you have been friends for many years, and you have long been like brothers, and it is reasonable for you to call me uncle. ”

Lu Liangsheng nodded, when he was in Fushui County, he was familiar with Min Changwen, all the way to the capital, and then to Chang'an, he was his elder.

The old man said all this, if he was still hypocritical, he would look pretentious, and he would not hesitate, get up and bow.

"Uncle. ”

"Hey. Min Changwen stroked his beard with a smile, stretched out his hand, let Lu Liangsheng sit down, and continued: "Since he is an elder, the old man has something to say." ”

Belch.....

Sure enough, as Lu Liangsheng expected, he brought the relationship closer first, and then talked about business, and he really set it up in front of him.

"Uncle, please. ”

The old man looked at the scholar sitting upright and lowered his face slightly, probably thinking that he was shy, and smiled more substantially, took a sip of tea, and moistened his throat.

"That's good, my uncle is going to say that you are not, and now there are more than ten good students, men of your age, children are afraid that they are sitting in the private school and reading aloud, but Liangsheng is still alone, although you cultivate the Tao and cultivate the mind, and comprehend the wonderful law of the gods, but that is also a person, read so many sage words, and you should also know that human ethics is a big thing. ”

"Uncle, it's not a good life and not ....."

Lu Liangsheng wanted to interject, but was interrupted by the old man waving his hand: "Listen to my uncle first." Tapping his fingers twice on the table, he continued:

"If you don't marry a wife and have children, this is to prevent the ancestors of your Lu family from sacrificing, what if you cultivate immortality, what if you will fly away, you have no children!

The second elder who gave birth to you and gave birth to you never enjoyed his family in the future, so he went..... Not..... The old man has always spoken so straight, and he is also like this in front of the emperor, don't take it to heart.

...... And in the future, there is no one to worship in front of the grave of the second elder, and you are alone, will you feel uncomfortable at that time?"

The old man used 'filial piety' as a lobbyist, but it made Lu Liangsheng unable to refute, before cultivating, the family was poor, and his parents were already marrying a wife in Zhang Luo, and now the family is much richer, and urging him to marry is becoming more and more urgent, if he doesn't tell his mother, Honglian will cultivate into the flesh, I'm afraid he won't even dare to go back to his home now.

"Good life?"

Seeing that the scholar frowned and kept silent, the old man called him, and tapped his fingertips on the table: "Liangsheng, it just so happens that the old man has found it for you, as long as you nod, the marriage will be completed tonight." ”

"Don't, uncle's words are over. ”

Lu Liangsheng hurriedly waved his hand and got up, changing to someone else, it didn't matter if he turned around and left, but the old man treated him very well, and he read countless people, so he couldn't just say a few words to fool him.

After thinking about it, it's better to simply pick things out.

The last light fell at dusk outside, and when the sky darkened, Lu Liangsheng lit the lights.

"What my uncle thinks, Liangsheng also thinks, but I can cultivate the way, and I have a long life, and I can't grow old with ordinary people and spend the rest .....of my life together."

In between words, he sat down opposite him again and poured tea for the old man.

“...... Even if they leave an heir, but my wife can only watch her grow old, and I am still as young as I was at the beginning, I am afraid that both of them will feel uncomfortable at that time, and they will not be sad when they come and go differently?"

Over there, after listening to Lu Liangsheng's concerns, Min Changwen pursed his lips and nodded, not knowing what to say.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside, which woke the old man up.

'Whew.....'

Min Changwen exhaled softly, got up and arched his hand, walked outside the door and saw Wang Banblind, who had lived in the mansion for a few days, and a young man in regular clothes, with his hair hanging down to cover his face, he probably guessed who it was, turned back to the scholar who was sending him at the door, and said with a smile:

"The meaning of a good life, I understand, alas, it's just that my idiot is suffering, so my uncle won't bother, let's come over and have dinner together later. ”

"Yes. ”

Lu Liangsheng arched his hand and watched the old man walk out of the crescent moon door, then he turned around and walked into the house, and changed his outfit behind him, and Wang Banblind, who was wearing a fine silk robe, hurriedly waved to the young man behind him.

"Second junior brother, come in and meet Master. ”

The figure following behind was dressed in ordinary clothes, walked into the room with the lights, and brushed the hair that covered his face, it was Yuwen Tuo, he was a royal family of the previous dynasty, so he naturally couldn't enter and leave the mansion of Nanchen in a grand manner, so he was dressed like this.

"Meet Master!"

Yuwen Tuo arched his hand and faced the bookshelf again, pushed open the small door and came out to stretch the toad Taoist: "Meet the master." ”

"Don't be polite, just sit down. ”

The toad man waved his flippers, yawned, and looked up: "Hey, where is the pig demon?"

"I don't know, I didn't see him come out when I entered the courtyard. ”

Lu Liangsheng sat on the edge of the bed and received a salute from the two apprentices, and after replying to the master, he asked Wang Banblind and Yuwen Tuo to come and sit down.

"Master, what happened to Yuanfeng? I listened to the battle report from the front, junior brother, he ...... Sacrificed your life for your country?"

Yuwen Tuo, who had just sat down, stood up and looked at the master opposite worriedly, and the old man Wang on the side also echoed: "Yes, master, how is Yuanfeng? The disciple calculated several times, and it was all the appearance of falling stars, but when he calculated it today, it became ethereal." ”

"It's all right. ”

Lu Liangsheng told the two of them how he saved Yuanfeng, and went to Lishan to ask to see Lishan's mother, Yuwen Tuo has always been good friends with Qu Yuanfeng, and when he heard that his body could be restored, his clenched fists gradually loosened.

Before the half-blind Wang on the side had recovered from the shock of the master's sight of the gods, he heard Lu Liangsheng speak.

"I called you over tonight, in fact, there is nothing else, it is to tell you not to be in a bad mood for Yuanfeng's affairs, everything is with the master, you can follow your own path with peace of mind, especially Yuwen Tuo. ”

The scholar looked at the disciple reincarnated by the Kunlun Mirror: "You are arrogant, but the teacher knows that you are not cold and hot, Yuanfeng has known you for a long time, worshiped under my door together, grew up together, and was worried about your anger for the teacher, and did crazy things. ”

"Yes, the disciple must follow the master's teachings!" Yuwen Tuo stood up and bowed.

What should be said, Lu Liangsheng has also finished explaining, and the rest only needs to go to the Two Realms Mountain to see the divine monkey that was pressed under the mountain, and then come back to give an errand to the old mother of Lishan and take back Yuanfeng.

When things are arranged, I feel much more comfortable. ’

Sent the two apprentices away, and walked back to the gate of the courtyard, where the steward of the Min Mansion was already waiting, and invited him to go to the backyard for dinner.

"Go ahead!"

Lu Liangsheng waved the sleeves of his robe lightly, walked behind, and let the other party lead the way, he also came to the backyard, passing through the corridor full of lanterns, and the maids and servants in the palace he met on the way bowed to him one by one.

Here, the scholars also responded with a smile, which was his courtesy, regardless of dignity or inferiority.

All the way to the middle hall of the backyard, sure enough, a table of dishes was purchased, and the maids who passed the dishes were busy going in and out, Min Changwen saw Lu Liangsheng coming in while drinking tea, and got up with a smile and invited him to sit at the table to eat.

"Originally, I prepared a hearty meal, but for some reason, there were a lot less, so I had to make some home-cooked food in the back kitchen. ”

"It's not in the way, and the coarse vegetables and light rice can also be satisfying. ”

Not long after, Min Yuerou and Mrs. Min also came out of the back hall, the woman's eyes were a little wet and red, as if she had cried, and she didn't look at Lu Liangsheng during the dinner, and the scholar didn't ask more.

The old people over there no longer talked about marriage, and the most they talked about was the court and the government affairs in hand, and occasionally asked Lianglu Liangsheng about the strange things in the cultivation.

After eating, Lu Liangsheng chatted with the old man for a while, and then said goodbye and returned to the small courtyard.

Pushing the door into the house, the toad lifted the quilt and got up, ran to the bookshelf and took out the rooster bowl, sat down on the table, wiped the small chopsticks elegantly, and tied an apron.

"Quickly bring it to the teacher....." Seeing the bowl handed in front of him, he suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Why are they all some vegetarian dishes?"

Lu Liangsheng pointed outside.

"Eaten by an old pig. ”

"His mother!" the toad put his chopsticks down, jumped off the table, unbuttoned his apron and threw it on the ground, walked out of the door angrily, ran to the camphor tree, looked up at the fat figure sleeping soundly on the treetops and shouted.

"You come down for the old man—"

"If you have the temper to eat secretly, you have the ability to come down and put it right with the old man, see if the old man doesn't stew you!"

"Come down!!" ”

......

Hearing the master scolding outside, Lu Liangsheng shook his head, took a book by the bedside, and looked at it by the dim light.

Outside, rustling footsteps came.

Lu Liangsheng raised his face and looked at the door, the open door, Min Yuerou was standing there, her eyes were red, and she was holding a bowl of soup in her hand.

"Today's meal is a little simple, I'm afraid that you won't be full, so I specially asked the chef to remake it. ”

Alas~

Lu Liangsheng closed the book, took the lotus seed soup from the woman's hand, put it on the table, and before he could speak, Min Yuerou spoke first.

"My father told me, but I don't care.... Really, I don't care. ”

"Yuerou. ”

Looking at her appearance, the scholar calmed down, put the soup aside, his mind was spinning rapidly, and he suddenly had the idea of refusing.

He said softly, "Actually, it's not just what I said to Master Min today..... Another thing, if I want to get married, I have to get my master's consent. ”

"Your master?"

Min Yuerou was stunned for a moment, she had never seen Lu Liangsheng's master until now, and she didn't know who it was.

"That'..... Where's your master?"

"It's not a question of where, huh..... His old man once said that cultivating his way will be passed on from generation to generation, and he will not be able to get married until he dies....."

Outside, the scolding toad stopped his voice, looked at a couple of men and women in the room, and sat down with his flippers in his hands.

"His mother, this can be related to the old man....."

In the house, Min Yuerou pursed her red lips, wiped away the wet marks from the corners of her eyes, turned her skirt, turned around and strode away.

Seeing that the woman left without a sound, thinking that he was in trouble and retreated, Lu Liangsheng breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bed, tired for a long time, still lying on the couch comfortably.

'It's better to leave early tomorrow morning. ’

Thinking about it, blowing out the lights, pillowing pillows, and falling asleep in a daze, the next morning, before dawn, the maid who came to send the breakfast knocked on the door, there was no one in the room, the bedding was neatly folded on the bed, and on the round table on the side, there was a note of farewell.

Uncle on top:

The path of cultivation is long, and the treatment of the apprentice is overwhelmed, and he can't consider the affairs of men and women......

When Min Changwen saw this letter, he walked to the court with pity, looked at the morning light that was shining down, and sighed softly.

"Sir!"

Soon, a maid came running and panting and pointed in the direction of the backyard.

"Little ..... Miss, she's gone. ”

"What?!"

......

The morning light spreads, crossing the hustle and bustle of the city, pushing to the west foot of Chang'an, in the sound of cicadas and birds, Lu Liangsheng led the old donkey to hang the bookshelf, and the pig Gangguan, along the ridge, towards Hezhou.
