Mrs. Wang, who was sent out of Lizheng's house, did not go back to her home. She asked Wang Guozhao's brother to go back and call Wang Dali. She went to the patriarch Wang Wenhe's house crying. By this time, the news had already spread in the village, and Shao Yunan went to the county school to find Wang Zhisong for an evaluation. Mrs. Wang cried and ran to Wang Wenhe's house, and the villagers all followed her to watch the excitement.
If Wang Wenhe's wife, Mrs. Wang Qian, hadn't been oppressed by Wang Wenhe, she would definitely scold Mrs. Wang out. Go to someone else's house and cry, mourning! Wang Wenhe valued Wang Zhisong, but a woman in the Wang Qian family didn't have so many worries. Among the annoying people in the Wang family, Mrs. Wang was definitely one of them. Wang Wenhe asked his wife to restrain himself, but seeing Mrs. Wang crying all the time, Wang Qian couldn't help but say, "What's the use of crying? If you don't know, you might think my family is in a funeral. Either stop the Shijing family, or From now on, just stay safe and don’t always think about Ishii’s money. What if I say that Ishii is serving corvee and joining the army, so why save some private money? You are Tong Shenglang’s mother anyway, I don’t understand this at all. "
Wang Wenhe immediately chased his mother-in-law away: "Speak less and go into the house."
Wang Qianshi was very dissatisfied with her husband's attitude, and stomped her feet: "If Ishii's family really makes trouble in the county school, I'll see what she will do!" After saying a harsh word, Wang Qianshi went into the back room.
The old lady Wang burst into tears: "Patriarch, what should we do! The funeral star will not really dare to go to the county school to find pine branches. If he really dares to go, I will fight him hard!"
Wang Wenhe patted the table: "How dare you say it! It's not all your fault! The house is divided, and I don't know what you are making trouble with! This stone was sold by Shao Yun'an. If he doesn't sell it, you know That stone can make money? You don’t give Shijing a grain of rice, and you don’t allow him to find a way to make money? Are you still a mother? When you carried Shijing behind your back and let him take it away, I told you , Ishii is your son, not everything can be suppressed by the word "filial piety"! You just don't listen! Tian Yan was born by you, but Ishii is not! My son, I must make trouble and separate myself , What good will it do you! If it really involves pine branches this time, there is no use crying to death!"
Mrs. Wang just cried, but said nothing to Wang Wenhe about her attitude towards Wang Shijing. Brother Wang Guozhao wanted to say something, but Wang Wenhe stared back at him: "You are a shit-stirring stick! Don't talk about persuading your mother-in-law, you know how to listen to the wind and make the house restless. In the future, if you and Tian Yan meddle in the affairs of the Ishii family, I will ask your parents to separate the family for you, so that you will not harm Song Zhi!"
Brother Wang Guozhao's face immediately turned pale. She doesn't want to break up! She also hoped that after Wang Zhisong became the No. 1 scholar, the whole family would follow suit. Brother Wang Guozhao shrank his neck, not daring to say anything. Mrs. Wang really howled: "It's that mourner who killed my Wang family!"
Wang Wenhe was so angry that Mrs. Wang was so angry that his hands shook, he slapped the table heavily, and photographed Mrs. Wang's mourning. Facing such a stubborn person, he could only say one sentence in the end: "Wait to stop the person back first." Right. I think Ishii's family is also angry, the county school is so easy to advance. I guess Ishii and Shuping have already stopped him. When you come back later, don't say anything, I will persuade them."
When Mrs. Wang heard this, she felt confident and she was no longer afraid. That's right, the county school is so easy to get into. Don't be afraid anymore, Mrs. Wang wiped her face with her sleeve, but still couldn't help saying: "That stone..."
Wang Wenhe slapped the table vigorously twice, annoyed: "You still want to! Do you really want to make troubles and damage the reputation of Songzhi so that you can be happy?"
Mrs. Wang said unwillingly, "Ishii didn't get the stone after the separation, so I should have given it to me. I'm his mother. How can I not give my mother's treasures to my daughter-in-law before the separation? He is the eldest brother." He gave all the money to outsiders, did he think about his mother and father, did he think about his two younger brothers and sisters? Brother Zheng needs money to study, Songzhi needs money even more now, and Chunxiu is going to talk about others, what is he doing? Don't think about it?"
Wang Guozhaodi whispered, "That's right."
Wang Wenhe really couldn't reason with the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, so he could only say: "Wait for Ishii and the others to come back!"
Mrs. Wang snorted coldly, feeling angry, and waited for that scoundrel to come back and see how she taught him a lesson! Those who sell stones for silver should belong to her!
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is often not determined by people. Everyone thought that Shao Yunan was just scaring people; everyone thought that even if Shao Yunan went to the county school, he would not be able to get in; everyone also thought that those who chased him would definitely stop Shao Yunan.
Wang Shijing, Wang Xing, and Sun Erjiang were the first to chase them out. The speed of the three people is not slow, and the cow is not slow, but the cow is pulling a cart after all, and there are three strong men in the cart. That Shao Yun'an rode a little donkey and ran away quickly. And the second wave of Wang Wenhe's son Wang Shuping, Wang Tianyan and Zhao Yuande's speed was even slower because of tandem and Wang Tianyan's delay, not to mention chasing Shao Yun'an, even Wang Shijing left them far away.
The little donkey ran fast, and in less than half an hour, Shao Yun'an arrived at the county seat. On the way, he took some copper coins and scattered silver from the space. After entering the city and depositing the little donkey, Shao Yun'an quickly walked all the way to the county school. When he saw the gate of the county school, he straightened his clothes, scraped off the mud from the soles of his shoes on the mountain, adjusted his facial expression, and walked towards the county school.
The gate of the county school is open during the class, there are special guards, and there are also small servants doing odd jobs. Shao Yunan stepped onto the five steps at the gate of the county school, crossed the threshold and walked in. Immediately, a janitor in bunt clothing stopped him.
"Hey, who are you, why did you rush in without saying a word, do you know where this is?" In this county school, even the gatekeeper has a sense of pride.
Reaching out without slapping the smiling face, Shao Yunan said in a good-tempered manner: "This old man, I am the new student of Wang Songzhi this year, sister-in-law." This self-proclaim made Shao Yunan feel goosebumps all over his body, "He hasn't come home for several days, I happened to be in the county town on business, so I stopped by to see him. My mother-in-law asked me to bring him some silver. I have to go back and rush to find him, so I forgot etiquette, please forgive me."
It was very easy for Shao Yun'an, who used to hang out with a group of cultural masters, to show some classical cultural atmosphere. What he said was reasonable, and the last sentence was even more polite. The janitor's complexion improved a little, and he said, "The master is still teaching at this time, just wait."
Shao Yun'an smiled shyly again, and said: "Old man, my uncle is still young, and he is not talkative at home on weekdays. My family and I are very worried about his situation in the county school. Can you take me to study with him?" I’ll just take a look outside to see if he’s used to it, and I’ll tell my family when I get back. I’m sorry for the parents in the world, and I’m asking you to make it easier for me, the junior, thank you in advance.”
Shao Yun'an then bowed and bowed, with a very sincere attitude.
"Poor parents in the world..." The uncle stroked his beard and said with emotion, "This sentence is really good. I see that you are also an educated person. Well, I will take you there, but after you have read it, you must read it." Leave, don't disturb the teacher's teaching."
Shao Yunan showed sixteen teeth: "Thank you."
The uncle talked to another middle-aged man who was guarding the door, and then took Shao Yun'an to the classroom where Wang Zhisong was. The total number of scholars studying in the county school is only about 20 people, divided into two classes, with a total of five masters. The five masters lead two classes respectively, and the content of the teaching also has its own emphasis. In this era, there is no Four Books and Five Classics that Shao Yunan was familiar with since he was a child, and there is no Tang poetry and Song Ci. The history is different, and the celebrities and works are naturally different. Many classic sentences familiar to modern people are very rare to hear here.
The words "poor parents in the world" came from the Empress Dowager Cixi, and of course people in the Great Yan Kingdom would never have heard of it. It was these words that made the gatekeeper let go of his guard, and even showed some appreciation for Shao Yun'an. On the way there, Shao Yun'an asked the uncle's name, and learned that the uncle's surname was Zhuang. When he was outside the classroom, Shao Yunan had already called the other party "Uncle Zhuang", and the other party called him "Brother An".
After stopping, Zhuang Bo pointed to a big room ahead and said, "That's it."
Although it was dawn, the windows of the classroom were all closed. Shao Yunan pretended to look at Wang Zhisong and took a few steps closer. Seeing that he was approaching the door, Zhuang Bo hurriedly called out: "Brother An, don't get any closer."
The door of the classroom was also open, and Shao Yunan could see that the teacher was there by leaning forward a little. After listening for a while, he heard that the master seemed to be talking about an essay written by a certain student (interpreted as a modern composition), he turned his head and apologized to Zhuang Bo: "Zhuang Bo, I'm sorry, I just lied to you, I came to Looking for the master here."
"ah?"
Before Zhuang Bo could respond, Shao Yun'an strode to the door amidst the startled change in Zhuang Bo's face. The students in the classroom found an uninvited guest outside the door, and the teacher who was lecturing also stopped.
The master put down the article in his hand, turned his head and frowned: "Who are you? Why did you break into the classroom?"
Uncle Zhuang rushed forward to drag Shao Yunan away. Shao Yunan strode into the classroom, clasped his fists and bowed to his forty-year-old teacher who was sitting in the lecture hall with a green beard, and said loudly, neither humble nor overbearing: "Master, this junior came to you specially. As the saying goes, 'It is difficult for an upright official to decide on housework'. I can only ask Master to judge and judge this housework."
There was an immediate uproar in the classroom. Wang Zhisong sat in the middle of the third row. He had never met Shao Yun'an before, he just thought he was a reckless man, with curiosity and disgust on his face. Breaking into the classroom like this rashly is simply lawless.
Zhuang Bo stood outside the door, not daring to come in, and said anxiously: "Master Chen, this little brother said he was here to recruit people, I..."
Master Chen raised his hand to stop Zhuang Bo's words, and said to Shao Yun'an: "Since it is a family matter, even if it is difficult for an upright official, you should go to the elders or the elders of the clan. Why do you come here and treat this county school as yours?" The family ancestral hall can’t be done?” Although he was very surprised by Shao Yunan’s words, Master Chen was still very displeased. Anyone who can be a master dislikes unreasonable and reckless people.
Shao Yun'an was not afraid, and straightened his back and said: "For other housework, the younger generation should find the elders in the family and the elders of the clan to judge. But for the housework that the younger generation comes to find the master, you either have to go to the yamen, or I can only come to you, Master. Because the most important person in this household matter is sitting in this classroom, he is one of your students."
"Wow!" The classroom became even more noisy. Master Chen picked up the paperweight and put it down. The classroom was instantly quiet, but everyone's faces were full of gossip.
At this time, the teachers and students in another classroom next door heard unusual movements. Master Guan, the master of that classroom, came out of the classroom and asked loudly, "Brother Chen, what happened, why is there such a commotion?"
Shao Yun'an turned around and bowed to another Master Chen who was about the same age as Mr. Chen who walked outside the door, but he didn't speak. Mrs. Chen said very displeasedly: "This man said 'it's difficult for an upright official to break up housework'. His housework is related to a certain student present, so he came to me for comment."
"It's hard for an upright official to decide on housework?" Guan Fuzi couldn't help but look at Shao Yun'an a few more times. Although this man was wearing a plain sackcloth, he had a magnanimous expression and a proud demeanor, without a trace of vulgarity at all. In addition, this person has red lips and white teeth, exquisite appearance, bright eyes, and can say a word that he has never heard before, which is really curious.
Master Guan couldn't help saying, "Even so, you might as well listen to it."
As the master gave the steps, Master Chen's expression softened. In fact, if Shao Yun'an hadn't spoken out of the ordinary, with the spirit of a scholar in his words, Mrs. Chen would have ordered Shao Yun'an to be kicked out, and went to the county government to punish him for disturbing the county school.
"Thank you two masters." Shao Yun'an saluted and thanked the two masters again, then straightened his back.
Wang Shijing hurried to the county seat in an ox cart. When he came to the livestock depository and saw the little donkey, Wang Shijing's scalp felt numb. Sun Erjiang was shocked: "Isn't this the donkey of Er Gouzi's family? My sister-in-law won't really go to the county school!" Both Sun Erjiang and Wang Xing are two years younger than Wang Shijing, even if they are older than Shao Yun'an, they still have to shout little sister-in-law.
"Let's go find him!" Wang Shijing gave the money in a hurry, and ran to the county school with Sun Erjiang and Wang Xing. Panting, the three ran to the gate of the county school, but were stopped before they entered.
"Ah, ah, who are you going to break in? Do you know where this is?"
Wang Shijing asked anxiously: "Uncle, is there a little brother about fifteen or sixteen years old in a gray shirt who came here? He is my wife."
The man said: "Yes. It is said that it was entrusted by my mother-in-law to find a new Tong Shenglang, and give some money, why?"
ah! really went in! Wang Xing and Sun Erjiang looked at Wang Shijing in panic. Wang Shijing suppressed his uneasiness, and quickly said: "Uncle, my daughter-in-law came in a hurry and didn't bring enough money, so I will send it here. We will leave after giving the money."
The man looked suspiciously at the three men dressed in mud legs, not quite believing that this one-eyed, disfigured man could be the husband of the handsome young man.
The man said: "That little brother speaks eloquently. I look like a scholar. How could she be your wife?" Looking Wang Shijing up and down, "This is a county school, not just anyone can get in." Not without The other party didn't deserve Shao Yun'an's meaning at all.
Wang Shijing clenched his fists, and said patiently, "That's really my daughter-in-law who just passed the door." He took out the money bag from his arms, "He left in a hurry and took the wrong money bag, I hurried to catch up." Follow him."
Wang Xing and Sun Erjiang boldly said, "This uncle, that person is really his wife."
The gatekeeper still didn't believe it, and seeing the anxiety on the faces of the three people didn't seem to be faking, he said: "This is not a place to enter casually. When your daughter-in-law comes out, you can ask him to send it back. It will be in half an hour. School is over, you go to the door and wait." Saying that, the man pushed Wang Shijing and the others out. Wang Shijing looked inside anxiously, but he couldn't really break in regardless. He wasn't afraid of hurting Wang Zhisong, but because he didn't know Shao Yun'an's situation now, and he was afraid that he might not be able to accumulate Shao Yun'an.
The three of them were pushed out, and Wang Shijing was sweating all over. Wang Xing asked urgently: "Brother Shijing, what should we do! The little sister-in-law won't be arrested?"
Wang Shijing clenched his fists tightly, telling Wang Xing and himself: "Yun'an has a lot of ideas, he must have a way to protect himself. If he hasn't come out after school, I'll break in and look for him."
"How can I do that! You will be arrested for breaking into the county school!" Wang Xing and Sun Erjiang hurriedly persuaded.
Wang Shijing was anxious: "I can't wait!"
Before Wang Shijing and the others arrived, Guan Fuzi sat next to Chen Fuzi, intending to listen to it together. Shao Yun'an didn't immediately say what the housework was about, but said to Zhuang Bo who sent him in: "Uncle Zhuang, although this junior is really helpless, it is always the fault of this junior who lied to you. This junior apologizes to you here. If you were not forced to I'm desperate, and the younger generation would not choose such a way, I hope you can forgive me." After finishing speaking, he made another deep bow.
The two wives were planning to cut off the housework, and Zhuang Bo couldn't blame him anymore, so he just waved his hands and said with a wry smile: "You are like this, as an elder, how can I not let you go. You still Tell the two masters what's going on."
Shao Yun'an bowed again, and turned to the two masters. At this time, someone outside suddenly shouted: "The dean is here!"
With this shout, Master Chen and Master Guan immediately turned around and walked out. The students in the classroom also stood up. Uncle Zhuang gave Shao Yun'an a look of "seeking blessings", and hurriedly looked for the dean. After the sound, the students in Guan Fuzi's class came out of the classroom one after another. Shao Yunan also left the classroom.
