After recuperating for about ten days, Tang Jie finally "healed", and the bottle of elixir was completely exhausted-greed for ink was originally a thing from childhood, Tang Jie was tired of greedy objects such as wire shelves. , I'm very happy that my greed for ink can reach a higher level.
The wife here got the news of Tang Jie's recovery, so she asked Shiyue to bring Tang Jie to see herself.
What's different from the past is that not only his wife saw Tang Jie this time, but also the guardian of the Wei family, Dan Bai, and the spiritualist Lu Chenyang who rescued Wei Tian when he fell off the cliff.
Wei Danbo is the kind of person who knows he is rigid and hard to get along with at a glance. He can hardly see a smile on his square Chinese character. Some are just serious, silent and serious, perfect for making large-scale portraits. Hang on the top of the city gate.
"Tang Jie has seen the master, madam, Master Lu Xian!" At this moment, Tang Jie entered the house, and Tang Jie first bowed to the three of them.
"Sit down." Wei Zheng Shufeng said to Tang Jie with a smile on her face. She has a good impression of Tang Jie, so she speaks the most kind.
"The old lady is here, and the youngest dare not sit down."
"You have recovered from your new injury, you don't have to be polite." The wife said, she had asked her servant to move a stool for Tang Jie, and Tang Jie sat down.
Watching Tang Jie sit down, his wife said, "I wronged you the last time. You did a good job, but Chong'er is not sensible. I am here to call you this time to reward you."
Speaking of Rouge, he has taken out a plate with ten bright silver ingots in it.
Tang Jie knew that this one silver ingot was ten taels of silver, and the reward of this hundred taels of silver would be really serious when it arrived.
Tang Jie wanted to say something polite, and Wei Danbo over there said, "If you reward you, don't refuse. The rules of the Weifu House, if you have merit, you should reward, if you have done it, you will be punished. This is what you deserve."
Hey, it doesn't need to be said that such a simple truth seems to be understood only by your family in the whole world, right
Tang Jie sighed while complaining in his heart.
He knew this was because Wei Danbo wanted to divide the matter clearly, obviously he didn't intend to get involved in this matter, and he didn't want to owe Tang Jie's favor. If he doesn't accept it, I'm afraid it will make Wei Danbo think that he wants more, but it's not good, so he has to accept it.
But that's okay. With this hundred taels of silver, one can buy some good medicines for the elderly to treat the body.
At this time, the wife continued: "I have found out the situation. It was Shimo's idea to go out for a drink. It was Shimo's idea to go up the mountain at night. It was also Shimo's proposal to even whip you. This little bastard, don't urge the young master to study hard. On the contrary, it’s really outrageous every day. For the sake of the nanny’s face, I will not drive him out of the house, but he can’t stay with the young master."
Speaking of this, the wife took a sip of tea, cleared her throat, and continued: "Since Shi Mo is not here, I always find someone to replace him. I plan to let you take his place."
Tang Jie took a peek at Wei Danbo, and saw that his brows were slightly frowned, as if he didn't like this decision very much, because he knew it was his wife's own decision.
Wei Zheng Shufeng is a very powerful and shrewd woman, loved by old ladies and ladies in the mansion, and also quite prestigious outside the mansion. She originally came from a family. Although the Zheng family is not as prominent as the Wei family, it is also an established family. Wei Zheng Shufeng knows the book and knows etiquette, and after marrying into Wei's family, he has a good sense of family management, which makes Wei's family more prosperous.
This point can be understood as long as she can easily direct the spiritual masters in the family. Wei Zheng Shufeng is directly responsible for the life and treatment of these spiritual masters. She, the head of the master, actually holds the most important power of the family invisibly. Those spiritual masters listened to her, I'm afraid they listened to more than Wei Danbo.
It's no wonder that when it comes to being a human being, Wei Zheng Shufeng is indeed much better than Wei Danbo.
Tang Jie asked himself if he had to choose between his master and his wife, he would be more willing to serve his wife.
But at this moment after Wei Zheng Shufeng said this, Tang Jie thought for a while, and replied, "Thank you for your kindness, but I am afraid that the small one is not suitable to replace Shimo for the time being, so please think twice."
Wei Zheng Shufeng didn't expect that he would refuse. Even Lingshi Wei Danbo Lu, the steward Qin Yanzhi and the others were taken aback and looked at Tang Jie together.
"Are you not willing?" Wei Zheng Shufeng asked.
Tang Jie hurriedly replied: "It's not that I don't want to, but that I killed the young master's horse. I am afraid that the young master still has some grievances against me, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to fulfill the responsibility of the companion. The young master's study is a major event, if it is delayed because of this kind of thing. After the young master’s studies, the young one can hardly escape the guilt. There are some things, if you don’t do well, then don’t do it."
Wei Danbo and his wife were obviously startled.
"There are some things, don't do it if you don't do it well..." Wei Zheng Shufeng chewed on what Tang Jie said, "Well said!"
She suddenly chuckled and looked at her husband: "Master, do you still think I have seen the wrong person?"
Wei Danbo didn't answer, instead it was Master Lu who said with a smile: "The vision of the wife is always very powerful. This kid is not deep-minded, but precocious, and knows how to advance and retreat. The choice is very good, very good!"
With Ling Master Lu Yuanchang, Wei Danbo said: "But he is right. Chong'er is not sensible. I am afraid that Tang Jie is still a bit grudge on this matter. The current situation should not be accompanied by him for the time being. Shi Mo Although there was a mistake, he was considered dedicated to serving Chong'er, so let's give him another chance."
"You have a lot of scruples!" Wei Zheng Shufeng gave her husband a white look: "If this is the case, then give Shimo another chance, but if he dares to make mistakes, he will never be merciless."
Then turned to Tang Jie: "You have just recovered from your new injury, and your body is not strong yet. Go home and rest for a day before you come."
This thing just passed.
When sending Tang Jie out of the house, Guan Shi Qin couldn't help complaining again: "Oh, you boy, what should I say to you? Master's companion, this is something that many people can't ask for, but you just Give up like this, really..."
Tang Jie smiled: "I'm not afraid of delaying the young master's studies?"
"Don't give me this set." Guan Shi snorted, "Say, do you have any other ideas?"
Tang Jie still trusted Qin Guan.
After thinking about it at this moment, Tang Jie replied, "I don’t do accompanying reading, and there are indeed some other reasons why I can’t speak up. You always know that studying with a young master has always been the most thankful thing. If you urge, The young master will bother you. If you don't lead, your wife will not like you."
Guan Shi nodded his head again and again. Although everyone was jealous at this position, it was not so easy to do. If you want to be satisfied on both sides, you don't know how much effort it takes.
Tang Jie asked himself that he could still do it, but it took too much time and energy.
He is now studying the Array Dao every day, which is quite rewarding, and there is really no need to do this thankless companionship.
Tang Jie has continued: "In a few more days, it's time for the young master to take the assessment. Judging from the current situation of the young master, Uncle Qin, do you think he can do it?"
Guan Shi thought for a while, and sighed: "He, he can write an article in its entirety, and it is already a virtue of the ancestors!"
"So, if I go to study with me now, won't I become a burden for Sammo by then?"
Guanshi Qin laughed: "I said you must be wicked! You are right. It is indeed not a good time to go to study with you now. But if you want to go to Xiyue Academy, you must always do with study. ."
"That's not necessarily." Tang Jie replied: "It seems that no family has a rule that it must be a personal servant to become a servant, right?"
Being a personal servant is like being a secretary for a leader.
It’s easy to be promoted to be a secretary, but who said that only a secretary can be promoted
Tang Jie, who has already made a world of horticulture, is like a cadre with political achievements and real power. The road to promotion is already in sight. Why bother to go to the secretary's position
If I really went to that position and didn't make any achievements, it would obliterate my previous contributions.
It is precisely because of this truth that Tang Jie is not interested in companion reading at all.
Manager Qin was stunned: "This is true, but the personal servant is to get closer to the young master after all, and the young master's meaning is directly related to your future. It is always better to be close."
Tang Jie replied meaningfully: "The young master’s intention is indeed very important in the matter of servant studies, but it is not the young master but the wife who really has the right to decide! As long as the wife supports, then you are considered a toilet flusher. I can also become a servant! So I am not worried about the question of whether or not you can compete. Sometimes, incompetence is the best struggle!"
Guan Shi Qin didn't expect Tang Jie to say these words at all, and he was dumbfounded.
Perhaps it is because of the relationship of being a servant of the young master. For a long time, many people have regarded attracting the attention of the young master as a top priority, but ignored the things behind it.
But Tang Jie will not.
Those who have been in officialdom are very clear about a truth, that is, you have to see clearly who really makes the decision!
Life has a future only if you follow the real authority.
It's a pity that it's such a simple matter, but many people don't understand it.
The young master’s intention is very important when it comes to the young master’s enrollment, but it is his wife who really speaks, and even Wei Danbo has to listen to his wife's opinions!
After losing the trust of his wife, even if Shimo stayed in the position of companion reading, it was just a display!
She can tolerate Shimo now, that's because Wei Tianchong is still in Wei's house, she is in charge of him, and Shimo can't make any big tricks, so he will sell the old man in the mansion to the face.
In the future, when the emperor is far away from the sky, he will have to face many things alone. In any case, the wife will not be able to give her son to a servant who is not assured. In this kind of big matter, no one's face is of use!
Therefore, without his wife's trust, Shimo has basically lost his servant education qualifications.
It's a pity that he himself hasn't understood this until now, and he is still struggling for the position of companionship. He wants to keep his hope by fawning on the young master, but he doesn't know that it will only make his wife even more annoying.
Regarding this issue, let alone those brats, even Guanshi Qin didn't realize it. It wasn't until Tang Jie reminded him that he suddenly realized it. The look in Tang Jie's eyes was also different.
Qin Yuan shook his head and sighed, "After all, I still underestimate you."
Tang Jie leaned over and replied, "No matter what Tang Jie will do in the future, he will never forget the kindness of the two elders and Guan Shi Qin!"
A deep scheming doesn't mean it must be cruel and ruthless.
Although Tang Jie deceived and used the second elder of the Wu family and Guan Shi Qin, he was truly grateful for the care that the second elder and Guan Qin took to him. Therefore, he said this from the bottom of his heart and was sincere, and Guan Shi Qin heard it. Very pleased.
In the following days, life was back on track.
Tang Jie still does his work in the garden every day, cultivating formations by the way.
Over time, his level of formation has risen sharply, but it is mainly reflected in the psychedelic array. However, because he had not opened his spiritual eyes and lacked aura when setting up the formation, Tang Jie worked hard on the connection of the formation patterns, and gradually came to have some unique styles of his own, but he still couldn't see the specific direction of the future.
In addition, Tang Jie has an extra habit, that is, running in the morning every day.
Running from Weifu to Yinglong Mountain, looking for a no-man’s place, doing weightlifting squats and other training, at the same time the body concealed the image through the mind method, breathe out the spiritual energy, wait until the mind method is completed, and then return to Weifu to start the day work.
Occasionally, when he sees other servants doing some heavy physical labor, he will also take the initiative to help, and take the opportunity of helping others to continue to practice his own Tibetan Elephant Sutra. He has also won praises from many people. Weifu's popularity is getting better and better.
Day by day, Tang Jie's body grew taller, and he became stronger and stronger, with muscles on his body. These muscles were not as exaggerated as those bodybuilders, but only gave people a sunny and healthy image.
The young master would often come over to see his work if he was okay, but he would usually just leave after a few glances from a distance, without saying anything.
This puts the relationship between the two in a very delicate state, and no one can tell what the situation is.
As for Shimo and Shimeng, he was obviously much more honest after the horse stab, and he dared not make any trouble. The Jingxin Garden ushered in a rare period of peace.
The only bad thing was probably that after the horse stab, Tang Jie gained a nickname, "Tang Jie of the horse stab."
This was his second name after he first entered the Wei Mansion, following "the Tang Jie who took three guanyue money."
To be honest, Tang Jie didn't like it very much, because it was equivalent to reminding Wei Tianchong every day that Tang Jie killed his horse, which would make him uncomfortable.
Tang Jie knew that this was Shimo's calculation, but he couldn't help it in this matter.
No, it's not impossible.
Since you can't get rid of your own problems, then expect the other party to be worse.
Wei Tianchong's assessment soon ushered in.
As a result of the examination, he was unpredictably approved by the professorship in eight characters: "Not learning and skillful, making laughs and generous!"
When the wife looked at this evaluation, and then at Wei Tianchong’s arrogant and incomprehensible article, apart from beating her son, her perception of Shimo was too low, but poor Shimo herself didn’t know. Still desperately to please the young master every day.
The days went so peacefully, and in a blink of an eye, more than a year passed.
Today, Tang Jie is still serving those flowers and plants in his flower garden, and now he is familiar with the plants and trees here, and he comes with his own hands, and makes his own wit.
At this moment, Tang Jie saw Ji Yue appear in the distance.
"Sister Shiyue, why do you have time to come to Jingxinyuan today?" Tang Jie asked with a smile.
With a solemn expression on her face, Shi Yue went straight to Tang Jie's side and whispered a few words to him.
"What are you talking about?" Tang Jie's expression changed abruptly.
