Qingshui County is no different from the county seat I have seen in the past, and it is naturally no different from the memory. I've been here many times in the past, but this time is very different.

Compared with other pedestrians who will be interrogated by the guards guarding the city, Li Zhichang is naturally not among them.

Qingshui County is a densely populated place within a radius of 100 miles, with many shops in the streets and alleys, and now it is the harvest season.

Li Zhichang took two steps, and when he arrived at the Zhou Mansion, the Menzi recognized him, although he didn't dare to make a show for this poor and sour talent who was often helped by the Zhou Mansion, because the men who had done this before were all reprimanded by Zhou Hongwen and were hung up.

Zhou Hongwen's family has a big business, and tomorrow Chongyang, Li Zhichang made an appointment to go mountaineering, so he took advantage of the cousin of his newly married wife Wang to visit his cousin today, and set up a family banquet in the bedroom.

His wife died in childbirth more than a year ago, and it was not until two months ago that he remarried the current Wang. The Wang family is young and beautiful, and Zhou Hongwen is naturally loved in every way.

If it weren't for the arrival of the Double Ninth Festival, his classmates in the county invited him to participate in the poetry meeting, I am afraid he would have forgotten Li Zhichang as a friend.

When I thought that I hadn't contacted Li Zhichang for two months, I felt ashamed, so I sent a little girl to send an invitation yesterday.

He has a solid family background, but he doesn't have any outstanding talent in learning, and when he was in the society, he made the slowest progress, and even the master of the society scolded him for 'rotten wood cannot be carved, and the wall of dung cannot be stained'.

He was slow to improve. Others don't think much of him, and they are disdainful.

Only Li Zhichang never showed any disdain for him, and of course he also knew that Li Zhichang had always had an ordinary look towards others. Never show closeness to anyone.

However, Zhou Hongwen was young at that time, and Li Zhichang's difference from the rest of the schoolchildren was evident when he boarded.

He took the initiative to find Li Zhichang close, only to find that this inconspicuous classmate was even more knowledgeable than that of the master, and in his relationship with Li Zhichang, he found a magical place. That is, Li Zhichang has always written articles overnight, and he will not revise them after writing, so he can't be called a word for word. But the style of writing is thick, and there is absolutely nothing to criticize.

And if he has any doubts about learning, he will ask Li Zhichang to ask, and there will be no mistakes. And Li Zhichang is as cold to him as everyone else. But there was no sign of impatience.

He sent money and food to Li Zhichang, and Li Zhichang didn't have any excuses, but Li Zhichang never asked him for any benefits.

Zhou Hongwen therefore decided that Li Zhichang was a person with the style of an ancient gentleman, although he was deliberately close, Li Zhichang still had little difference in his attitude towards him and others, and it must be because the friendship between gentlemen was as light as water.

His knowledge can be admitted to Xiucai because of Li Zhichang's help, if you want to win, you can only rely on luck. Moreover, he has a solid family background, and he is a small and wealthy person. So I didn't have much pursuit, and I wasn't enthusiastic about the township test.

Although Li Zhichang is not a gift, in Zhou Hongwen's opinion, he is much stronger than the vast majority of scholars, and even if he does not continue to take the imperial examination in the future, he will gradually show his reputation and become a generation of Confucianism, and he, Li Zhichang's confidant, will also make a strong note on the local county annals.

Since there are more talented people who are frustrated in the Bagu field, Xu Qingchang of this dynasty is recognized as the number one talent in the world, and he is still just a talent.

However, Xu Qingchang will definitely be able to pass on through the ages in the future, but he is stronger than many officials.

People in the world do not seek profit and must seek fame, Zhou Hongwen is not obsessed with glory and wealth, although he has thoughts about glory and wealth, in his opinion, wealth is still a hundred years old, if it can be immortal, it is good, if not, it can be passed down through the ages, it is also a beautiful thing.

This poetry meeting also didn't want Li Zhichang to show it, so that Li Zhichang began to become famous.

He thinks that Li Zhichang is indeed too low-key, if it weren't for people like him who have close contacts with Li Zhichang, who would know that Li Zhichang is a university scholar.

Zhou Hongwen received the servant's report, and when he heard that Li Zhichang was coming, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

When Wang heard it during the banquet, he was a little unhappy and said, "Is this the one who eats white food all year round?"

Zhou Hongwen said with a sullen face: "Brother Forgetfulness is not an ordinary person, it is a blessing that I can associate with him in my previous life, you are not allowed to show him a face later." ”

She is young and beautiful, and she is a newlywed woman, since Zhou Hongwen has responded to her needs, she used to dislike children and be noisy, and Zhou Hongwen also let her children sleep with her nurse without her taking care of her, but now Zhou Hongwen is angry with him for this Li Wusheng, which makes her even less fond of Li Zhichang.

The servant replied to Zhou Hongwen and invited him into the inner room for dinner, Li Zhichang smiled lightly and said: "This is not good, the left and right are just because of tomorrow's poetry meeting, come to visit in advance, since Brother Zhou is inconvenient, then forget it." ”

The servant entered and returned Li Zhichang's words to Zhou Hongwen.

Wang said in his heart: "This person is still interesting." ”

When Zhou Hongwen heard it, he groaned twice and said, "Let's move the noodles outside to eat." ”

Wang said unhappily: "If you want to go, I won't go." ”

The cousin of the Wang family knew that this cousin-in-law was also a member of the county, and his family background was also rich, so he could be regarded as a figure in the county, but he was so respectful to this person that he was very interested.

Although his cousin was displeased, he didn't hate Wu and Wu, and he hated to see Li Zhichang immediately.

Zhou Hongwen is still a little majestic, even if the Wang family is very unhappy and angry, he is ruthless and does not bow his head. After all, there is still her cousin watching from the side, although he spoils her, he doesn't want people to have a reputation for being afraid of guilt.

The servant moved to the outer hall, and Li Zhichang insisted on leaving.

Zhou Hongwen didn't see Li Zhichang for two months, and he felt that the other party was full of energy, only a year after the death of his deceased wife, he continued the string, in the end Zhou Hongwen didn't feel a little bright, and thought that Li Zhichang had the style of an ancient gentleman, and was afraid that Li Zhichang would despise him, so he didn't invite Li Zhichang that day.

At this time, Li Zhichang's appearance has not changed much compared to the past, but in the past, Li Zhichang was quite cold and very ashore, which made ordinary people stay away from him.

Today, Li Zhichang has an elegant morale, his eyes are moist and outstanding, but he does not make people feel estranged.

Zhou Hongwen sighed: "I haven't seen you for two months, but my brother is even more graceful, so that my brother is ashamed of himself." ”

Li Zhichang casually said a few words to Zhou Hongwen, and then a servant girl stumbled in and said, "The master is not good, the little master has an accident." ”

Zhou Hongwen didn't care about the only bone and blood, and said hurriedly: "What's the matter, tell me clearly." ”

The maidservant said, "The little master fell to the ground." ”

Zhou Hongwen was shocked and said to Li Zhichang: "Brother Forget, I'll go to see the dog first." ”

Li Zhichang said unhurriedly: "Brother Zhou didn't send someone to ask for a doctor, and I also knew a little about Qihuang, so I went with Brother Zhou to see the virtuous nephew." ”

Zhou Hongwen said: "I'm in chaos, but fortunately, there is a forgotten brother, so I will send someone to ask for a doctor, and the forgotten brother will go with me to see Xiao'er." (To be continued......)
