Chapter 31 Invitation
Woniu Village Pei Family
It was drizzling in front of the eaves, and there were wing rooms on the left and right, with a newly built corridor, a cluster of green bamboos planted in the middle, and a orchid orchids planted under the window.
Pei Ziyun picked up his pen and wrote a word. Voices came from outside the steep courtyard. Pei Ziyun stopped the tip of his pen and continued to write. He wrote a paragraph before putting it down and leaving the study.
"Mr.!" Several people sat in restraint and stood up when they saw it.
Pei Ziyun said, "It's all in the clan, so there's no need to be polite. How do you think about building an ancestral temple?"
"My husband, this is of course a good thing. We can all work. We can buy some bricks and wood to build it. The ancestral land is enough for fifteen acres, which can support a clan." An old man stood up and said, "He has the highest status and read some books. He was originally the head of the family.
Everyone's surname is Pei, and they are indeed related, but they are relatively far away, and when they escape here, they have no foundation.
Pei Ziyun took a picture, which was a simple map of the village, spread out the map, and asked: "Brother San, who are you going to choose which place to build it?"
"We are probably unable to occupy the village's temple or the land temple in the north of the village, and it is not suitable for us." Pei San said, seeing Pei Ziyun nodded and said, "The south of the village is good, there is wasteland, and we can buy it. Moreover, several of our families live here, and they are still close to the river."
Pei Ziyun nodded: "How much does it cost to build it in the south of the village?"
"If you buy these wastelands at one acre of five taels, you can ask the government to buy them. Fifteen acres is seventy-five taels. It doesn't cost much to build three ancestral halls. I'll give you some food and buy some bricks and wood, and we can build them ourselves." But this is also a matter of nearly a hundred taels of silver, and Pei San's uncle frequently looks at Pei Ziyun.
Pei Ziyun smiled, and did not say immediately, just asked, "Mother, the genealogy of your third uncle is not wrong, right?"
Pei Qian said, "I have joined it several times, that's right."
When the wind came out, there were people from the clan who brought their family tree to him. Originally, they were a clan, so there was no problem. At this time, everyone looked at Pei Ziyun with a gaze.
Once you build a ancestral hall, you can enjoy the incense specifically. It’s nothing, it’s the matter of the dead.
And after following the genealogy, there are scholars in the clan, not to mention anything else, just a slurry tip kick can get a lot of cheaper.
The so-called "spraying tip" is the hidden rule for the government to collect grain. When the government collects grain, large hu is a measuring instrument, and the people put the grain into the hukou to weigh it.
The grain pile should be loaded on the tip, and the grain collector will overflow with one kick to the hukou. It is said that this is to make up for the loss during storage and transportation, but in fact it is included in the pockets of the officials - although this is not much, it is about 10%.
This achievement of the people is related to food and clothing.
Besides, it is said that it is a great thing to return it to the clan land and be able to go to school.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Pei Ziyun stopped keeping him in hiding and said, "That's it. Mother, go buy land, third uncle, please contact the brick kiln."
"All the money is paid by my family."
As soon as these words were finished, everyone was happy. At that time, someone said: "I am a plasterer. As long as I eat, I will do it."
"I'll help too, I'll go up the mountain to cut down some trees!"
For a time, the same tribe responded one after another. The original Pei Family Ancestral Hall was burned down in the previous dynasty and he was wandering here. Seeing that scholars from the tribe were willing to pay for rebuilding, they all came to help.
I also invited lunch and discussed for a long time before leaving excitedly. Before leaving, I shouted: "Don't worry, it will definitely be completed within one month."
Seeing them leaving, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but smile.
The so-called organization has power. For the government, of course, the weaker the clan power, the better, but for individuals and families, the more united the clan, the stronger the clan is. Not to mention anything else, in my original world, just looking for a job, having many relatives, and having some connections, just make a phone call.
If you are alone, you can't even beg for your parents.
This is because of the different positions. As a smart person, Pei Ziyun stood on his butt now and felt that the clans should be united - individuals have rise and fall, who can guarantee that they will be officials from generation to generation, but if they have clans, they will not fall to the point of being too bad.
"Brother Pei!" Just as he was thinking, a cheerful voice came, Pei Ziyun smiled and stood up, opened the door, and a gust of wind and raindrops immediately penetrated into the room.
"So it's Brother Tang!" The person who came was Tang Zhen.
Pei Ziyun and Tang Zhen were counted as the same year, and they had a private relationship. They bowed to each other and Pei Ziyun invited Tang Zhen into the house to sit down.
Tang Zhen smiled and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time. Brother Pei went home, but after doing something big, he killed the Black Wind Thieves in an instant. He is really an extraordinary method!"
Pei Ziyun said to Tang Zhen: "It's so exaggerated. I'm a scholar. I can kill this giant thief, but I have been harmed by this beast for a long time. Therefore, I beg for the inspection. The inspection is a fair person. I will immediately kill this beast with thunder and decisive actions. This is all the contribution of the government and the inspector. How dare I live there?"
This was said without any slightest, but Tang Zhen did not doubt it, and said, "No matter what, Brother Pei was talking about the inspection and achieved this achievement."
He paused and said, "But after this incident, Brother Pei was at home and rarely went out. He didn't know what to do?"
Pei Ziyun pointed to the paper and said, "Brother Tang also knows that my Pei family is considered a descendant of an official, but he is in another county and moved to another county after encountering military disasters. He has no foundation in Jiangping County."
"I was lucky enough to be a scholar and was overjoyed. But my mother still had to urge me to pass the imperial examination. The Pei family was in Jiangping County, so I was considered safe. My mother had this life and I couldn't be idle. I wanted to sharpen my guns in the battle, read more books, and give it a try in this autumn exam."
When Tang Zhen saw Pei Ziyun's sincere look, he couldn't help but admire him and said, "After hearing that Brother Pei's exam article was posted, many juren were very impressed, saying that Brother Pei had already arrived, and now Brother Pei is still working hard like this. It seems that this year's autumn examination will definitely win."
Pei Ziyun shook his head: "The provincial examination of the autumn examination, there are only 33 scholars in the province, and there are only 33 people. There are many heroes in the world. What is my literary talent? It only depends on the fate of time!"
"Brother Pei is really a sincere person!" Tang Zhen sighed when he heard this. He didn't think that this was Pei Ziyun's modestness, but the truth. He also read Pei Ziyun's article. It was indeed a bit cool, but if you want to say that it was a whole province, it was a bit famous and it was still a lot short of it.
I can only say that there is a possibility of passing the imperial examination, but there are many people with the ability to pass the imperial examination. Only 33 years can pass the imperial examination, and it really depends on the fate of the time.
Tang Zhen would not talk about this topic, but would change the topic and talk about scholars, especially scholars in the same county.
Pei Ziyun also felt a little excited when she heard this and smiled: "I went back to the county and only met with my senior. If it weren't for my family affairs, it would be great to visit more."
Tang Zhen said, "Hey, I know Brother Pei has a lot of things recently, but by chance, I can not only relax my mood, but also exchange articles and make friends."
"There is something recently. I think Brother Pei should go." As he said that, Tang Zhen took out a post and gave it to Pei Ziyun. Pei Ziyun was stunned and took the post and took a look.
"It turned out to be the county scholar's literary club. I came to invite new scholars to go to Luhe to visit by myself. This is the routine of scholars." Pei Ziyun was about to agree, but when he looked at him, he saw that although Tang Zhen was smiling, he was a little nervous. He suddenly felt a little nervous and thought: "It would be fine if it was a simple literary club, but according to the information about the last time in Yinlong Temple, it was Zhang Jieyu who wanted to win over the outer disciples. Tang Zhen is afraid that he is no longer a simple scholar."
With this suspicion, he looked at it again and thought to himself: "The face is blue and white, and his eyes are blue. I am afraid that he has been overly drunk and sexually as well as being rescued by others, so he has become alienated from each other. Is this person coming to invite him? Is it a fraud?"
This thought arose, and something happened in the previous life flashed through my mind.
The original owner of the previous life wasted five years before he could barely win a scholar, so he naturally missed it. He had never received this invitation in these few years.
But there was a young man named Ji Xing in the Jin family in the county. He was still young now. But after three years, he became a scholar and became a little arrogant. When he met Zhang Jieyu, he was said to have written a few poems to mock him.
Later, Jin Jixing participated in the scholar's literary club and was suddenly reported to the school and government by the Chingyu, and was demoted to the government. He drowned after a few months. The reason for his fame and fortune was that he was drunk in Luhe and humiliated a wealthy lady in public. The honest and honest Jiaoyu was furious!
Thinking of this, Pei Ziyun nodded with a smile: "How many people will Wen go?"
Tang Zhen was stunned and said a few names. In a hurry, he naturally said all the names that were impressive. Pei Ziyun was even more shocked: "That incident was regarded as a slander and it was very lively, so the original owner also had some impression of them. These people also appeared in the previous life!"
What does this person want to do?
According to the booklet and the original owner's memory, Zhang Jieyu was a monk of the Prison Saint Sect and had connections with the bandits. And there was something strange about the temple last time. Is this a revenge?
He refused to agree, afraid that he would make another plan, and he was even more unable to defend himself, but he lost the opportunity. He smiled and said, "Since everyone goes, why wouldn't I come?"
"Okay!" Tang Zhen suddenly laughed: "Brother Pei is really happy!"
"This matter is decided." As he said that, Tang Zhen said goodbye. Pei Ziyun nodded, stood up and bowed to see Tang Zhen away.
Seeing this man leave, Pei Ziyun's face suddenly became cold. Seeing the rain gradually stopping, but the sky was still cloudy, she picked up the sword hanging on the wall and went out.
A scholar can hang a sword, just openly holding a weapon, and now he is holding a gun certificate, but most scholars act like they don’t have a sharp sword, while Pei Ziyun is different.
Pei Ziyun practiced the mantra. Although he could not enter the Tao without spiritual wisdom, his physical strength increased greatly. According to the standards of Taoism, swordsmanship was only an entry-level, but according to the standards of martial arts, he had already entered the hall.
In the rain, Tang Zhen got on the ox cart, scolded him, and the ox left.
Pei Ziyun followed behind and sighed in his heart that fortunately it was just a ox cart. If it was riding a horse, it would be difficult for him to chase it. Moreover, Tang Zhen was afraid that there was a ghost in his heart and was very cautious. Every time he walked a long way, he would open the window and look back. He saw that no one followed him, so he continued to move forward.
When Tang Zhen looked back for the first time, Pei Ziyun didn't check for a moment and was almost discovered. With this premise, he did not dare to get close and followed him far away and hung up.
Chapter completed!
