Cheng Yi heard the sound and came to the door. Cheng Dong, who was sitting in the room sulking, also heard the sound. He got up and followed his sister out to see who was visiting.
I saw a slender young scholar and a bumbling middle-aged Taoist priest standing outside the gate. Seeing the Cheng family siblings coming out, the scholar bowed and said: "Student Ma Yu, entrusted by Master Su Hao, came to visit.
The wife of the Cheng family and brother Cheng Dong."
"What's the matter with you?" Cheng Yi asked expressionlessly. At the same time, he stretched out a hand and squeezed the hand of his younger brother Cheng Dong who was standing next to him, signaling him to calm down. Cheng Yi had already felt it.
Okay, this younger brother who can't stand the cowardice seems to want to get angry again.
Ma Yu smiled slightly and said: "Master Su also had a lot of difficulties with what happened just now. Please forgive me. Master Su asked me to come here because he wanted to make some corrections to what happened just now. It was not malicious."
"Tian has been given to you, what else can I do to make up for it?" Cheng Yi said calmly. Different from the image of kneeling on the ground begging for help, at this time, she had no thoughts and returned to her former reserve.
Elegant and ladylike appearance.
"Ms. Cheng, this is not the place to talk. If you two don't mind, can you let me and Mr. Chen come in to talk?" Ma Yu asked.
Cheng Yi was a well-informed and reasonable woman. When she saw Ma Yu's polite appearance, she couldn't bear to be too indifferent to him, so she stepped aside and said, "Then I'll thank you for your humiliation."
Ma Yu and Chen Guanyu walked into Cheng's house and sat down in the main room. Cheng Dong unhappily pulled up a stool and sat down next to him, waiting to hear what these two people had to say. Cheng Yi was a woman and could not be with her.
The men sat on equal footing and could only stand aside with their hands down in silence.
After Ma Yu sat down, he raised his eyes and looked around the whole house. He saw that the furnishings in the house were extremely simple. It would not be an exaggeration to describe the house as bare walls. However, the floor and walls were very clean. You can imagine the mistress of the house.
He is a diligent and skillful person.
After reading this, he turned around and asked Cheng Dong who was sitting next to him: "Brother Cheng, I heard that you are familiar with poetry and books. I wonder what you are reading recently?"
Cheng Dong was stunned. He didn't know why the lobbyist sent by Su Hao asked him about his studies. He hesitated for a moment and replied: "I was reading the Book of Rites recently."
"Oh, what a coincidence. I've been reading the Book of Rites recently, and there are still a few things that I don't understand. I wonder if I can discuss it with Brother Cheng?" Ma Yu seemed to be suffering from nerd syndrome, and actually talked about knowledge.
.
Cheng Dong frowned, and before he could object, Ma Yu first said a few paragraphs from the Book of Rites and some of his own confusions, as if he really wanted to ask Cheng Dong for advice. Cheng Dong had a high level of knowledge.
, as soon as Ma Yu said something, he understood the key point, and couldn't help but discuss it with Ma Yu according to his own understanding. The two people talked to each other, and the more they talked, the more lively they were. Cheng Yi and Chen Guanyu
Both of them seemed to be like air.
"Brother Cheng is so talented, I admire you so much." After chatting for a while, Ma Yu laughed and hugged Cheng Dong, stopping the discussion. Then, he turned to Cheng Yi and said, "Madam of the Cheng family,
Although my younger brother is young, his understanding of the classics is extraordinary, and he is truly like a dragon or a phoenix among people. If you can go to Longguang Academy and get the guidance of a famous teacher, you will definitely be able to get high on the list and honor your ancestors."
Hearing Ma Yu talk about this matter, Cheng Yi couldn't help but feel worried, and sighed softly: "I have always wanted to find a teacher for him to give guidance, but my family is poor. Now, the only two acres of land have been occupied.
I still don’t know how to make a living next.”
Chen Guanyu coughed lightly at the side and said: "Ms. Cheng family, Xiaodao thinks that the two acres of your family's land being occupied is not necessarily a bad thing. Blessings are where misfortune lies; misfortunes are where blessings lie.
.The young lady seems to have been forced into a desperate situation, which may be in line with the theory of whether she will have a good time or not."
"Sir, what do you mean?" Cheng Yi asked strangely. She really couldn't figure out the intentions of these two people. In a situation like hers, if Su Hao really wanted to harm them, there would be no need to go through all these troubles. Now this horse
Could it be that Yu He, an old man, was going around in circles with them like this because he really wanted to help them?
Chen Guanyu said: "Madam of the Cheng family, your sister and brother are staying in Caijia Village. After all, they are just outsiders. If something happens, they will always be bullied. This matter of digging a well and occupying land is actually a matter of
As expected. My Master Su did not speak for the young lady. He also felt that even if the young lady can escape this disaster, Chief Cai will still have ways to make things difficult for you in the future. Instead of being worried all the time, it is better for you two to leave Caijia Village.
, make another living.”
Cheng Yi nodded slightly and said: "Don't I know that this Caijia Village is no longer the place for my siblings, but as a weak woman, how can I survive? My brother is still young, and he still has to study.
, it’s inconvenient to find any work. What should we do after leaving Caijia Village?"
Chen Guanyu said: "If Mrs. Cheng can trust my master, she might as well move to Fengcheng County. My master said that he felt guilty about digging the well and hoped to have a chance to make up for it. My master is next to the county magistrate.
If someone close to you wants to arrange a job for you, isn’t it something you can easily do?”
"Is that master of yours so kind?" Cheng Dong said to Chen Guanyu angrily, "I think he and that Cai Lichang are the same."
"Brother Cheng, you misunderstood." Ma Yu said, "Master Su was indeed ordered by the county magistrate to dig a well. Before arriving at Caijia Village, we didn't know who Cai Lizhang was. Today's well location is set at
Your family's field is also purely accidental. This theory of underground water veins makes sense and is not made up to embarrass you two."
Next, Ma Yu briefly told the Cheng family's story about Su Hao's deeds, especially mentioning that Su Hao was proficient in Western Gwu theory, and even told her sister about the linear programming problem that Su Hao asked in the academy the first day.
The two brothers said it again. Both the Cheng family siblings had some cultural background, so they could naturally hear the authenticity of Ma Yu's words. Su Hao's talent really surprised the two of them.
"But, we are not related to Master Su, so why should he help us?" Cheng Yi asked.
Chen Guanyu said: "My master has a kind heart. Don't say that he didn't help you with the well digging this time, so he feels guilty. Even if I'm a scumbag, I still offended Master Su in the beginning, and he can ignore the past grudges."
, give Xiaodao a bite to eat."
Ma Yudao: "Master Su heard that Brother Cheng is quite talented, and he also developed a love for talents. He specially asked his younger brother to come over, and also wanted to test Brother Cheng's knowledge. Master Su said that talented people like Brother Cheng,
It's a pity to stay in Caijia Village. I think Master Su also wants to help Brother Cheng so that his pearl will not become dusty."
Cheng Yi was a little moved by what Chen Guanyu said. She turned to Cheng Dong and asked: "Xiaodong, what do you think of what Mr. Ma and Daochang Chen said?"
Cheng Dong said: "Anyway, we can't stay in Caijia Village any longer. It doesn't hurt to go to the county town first. I don't believe in the character of Mr. Su. But I admire Brother Ma's character. I think Brother Ma also
Don’t lie to us.”
This means that Cheng Dong is acting like a child. In fact, after listening to Ma Yu and Chen Guanyu's explanations, his view of Su Hao has changed greatly. Ma Yu said that Su Hao thought Cheng Dong was a talented person.
Man, this compliment made Cheng Dong feel very useful. However, after he had just scolded Su Hao, it was extremely difficult for Cheng Dong to immediately change his words and say good things about Su Hao. Ma Yu had just discussed knowledge with him, and the two of them had a great conversation.
It was very speculative, so Cheng Dong was more willing to give up this face to Ma Yu.
After convincing the Cheng family siblings, Ma Yu and Chen Guanyu felt a lot more relaxed. They bid farewell to the Cheng family siblings, returned to the well-drilling site, and reported the Cheng family's affairs to Su Hao. Han Qian stood there
On the side, after hearing this, he nodded and asked Su Hao: "These Cheng family siblings are indeed sympathetic. Brother Su, do you have any plans on how to settle the Cheng family siblings?"
Su Hao shrugged and said: "I have just established myself in the county, so how can I find a way to accommodate them? I thought that Old Master Wu owed me a favor and asked him to take Cheng Dong into the academy to study. There should be no difficulty.
?As for the wife of the Cheng family, I wonder if Brother Han can arrange an errand for her?"
Han Qian glared at Su Hao and said, "Brother Su, you have done your own evil, and you still want me to help you clean up the mess. Are you embarrassed?"
Since Su Hao knew Han Qian's identity, he would not let her go. After all, Han Wen was also the head of the county, so it should be easy to arrange a job for Cheng Yi, right? He said with a smile: "Brother Han, you are not a niche student.
If you don't want to help the wife of the Cheng family, the matter of digging the well is really important, and I don't dare to leave my post without permission. Brother Han should have some connections in the county, so don't refuse such a simple thing."
Han Qian was really impressed by Su Hao's rogue attitude. She lightly stamped her foot and said, "I really can't believe that you, Su Hao, are such a person."
"What kind of person?" Su Hao asked.
"You know it yourself." Han Qian snorted and stopped talking to Su Hao.
Su Hao secretly smiled proudly in his heart. The feeling of teasing a little girl was really good. He had already asked Lu Xiuer before and knew that Han Qian had just turned sixteen. In future generations, it would be a standard
