Yun Zheng didn't know that the old lady of the Li family had a good way of raising her children, which was certified by the imperial court, but Lu Qingqing knew it very well. The imperial court had issued an award to the old lady of the Li family in the early years, and she was given the title "Wise Mother!"
Yun Zheng was going to Beijing this time to completely put his tail between his legs, so Lu Qingqing put the family's order in order first, and asked her husband to take the opportunity to go to the Li family to pay his birthday and ask the old lady for advice.
The way to raise children.
Lu Qingqing asked about it himself, but was rejected. The old lady came out and said that the ways of raising children are very different, and that the Yunmen family is a family of Wu Xun and the family tradition of the Li family is not in harmony...
Anyway, it means that the Yun family has no rules. It is too late to fix the family reputation now. The Yun family in the quagmire must not tell others that they learned their rules from the Li family...
With Lu Qingqing's arrogant temperament, it was in line with her nature to order her generals to smash the Li family to pieces after she was nakedly humiliated. Unexpectedly, Lu Qingqing not only did not do that, but instead wrote a letter of apology herself.
I asked the housekeeper Lao Liao to send it to Li Mansion.
To put it bluntly, Yun Zheng was the only one who did not expect this result in the entire city of Tokyo. Everyone else had already expected this result, so Lu Qingqing's letter of apology made the reputation of the Li Jiashan Cult even more fierce.
But having said that, the old lady of the Li family is indeed capable. All her eight sons, regardless of their legitimate sons or concubines, have become successful. If nothing else, this kind of attitude of treating everyone equally has made countless rich and noble women in Tokyo feel inferior. Xian
The name of mother is also well deserved.
In the Later Jin Dynasty, Dou Yanshan only performed the trick of five sons passing the imperial examination. The Li family's eight scholars surpassed the Dou family in every aspect.
In the world of scholar-bureaucrats, having such a good family reputation was enough to make Mrs. Li walk sideways in the circle of ladies. Even the queen had to address Mrs. Li as "Mother" in honor when she met her.
It was because of this confidence that when Li saw Yun Zheng, she could open her mouth and attack without any scruples.
Li Chang said that his mother's parenting method was to beat her. Others may not believe it, thinking that Li Chang was unwilling to tell her the secret recipe for raising a child and was using it as an excuse. How could Yun Zheng, a teacher himself, not know that what Li Chang said was actually the truth?
It’s strange that the results of taking lessons from famous teachers are not good.
Under this perverted education system, it is actually very possible for perverts like the Li family to occasionally appear. The saying "filial sons emerge from under the stick" became famous throughout the Song Dynasty, so that all parents in the world believed that their children were not good enough.
If you obey, you should be severely beaten.
After seeing clearly the cruel nature of the old lady of the Li family, Yun Zheng's eyes turned to the back flower hall, which was once a scene, and it became eclipsed. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that the scenery here was artificially piled up.
Li Chang was very busy today and it was not suitable to stay in the flower hall all the time. Yun Zheng should also go to the front hall of the Li family to socialize with the Song Dynasty courtiers whom he had not seen for a long time.
The hat of Minister of War is still on his head.
The Li family's reputation is indeed very high. There are countless officials who came. Some came by themselves, and some brought their families with them to show their closeness. The men all went to the front hall, and the women went directly to the back through the corridor.
Visit the old birthday girl at home, and learn from the old lady how to beat children with both hands.
Yun Zheng himself is a Bodhisattva. As soon as he showed up, a large group of officials came to pay homage. After seeing the ceremony, they left in a hurry. This is the same as the people of later generations worshiping Guan Gong. Anyway, Yun Zheng is a high-ranking official. If you have something to do, you should pay homage to him.
There's no harm in doing it once.
The nuts from Li's family are very fragrant. Yun Zheng grabbed a lot of hazelnuts, walnuts, lotus seeds and the like. He leaned against the pillar and ate the sweetness alone. He couldn't go to the table. Once he sat down, others had to get up. Today Li
My old lady is celebrating her birthday and it’s hard to lose her temper.
Yun Zheng thought that today he was the haggard protagonist among all the people in Beijing. Unexpectedly, there was another person who seemed even more unpopular. He was sitting alone on the middle table, drinking tea in small sips.
, a son of the Li family stood by the side to accompany the guests with a smiling face that was about to burst into tears.
Mr. Niao, I know that I will not be welcomed here, but I show up here without knowing why.
The dignified Councilor and Political Officer was sitting in the middle but no other officials came around to ask for advice on how to serve as an official. This shows that this Councilor and Political Councilor was a failure.
It was obvious that the Li family and Wang Anshi were political enemies, but they only maintained the most basic etiquette. As a servant of the Huangmen, Li Chang was hiding and sent a younger brother to support the scene. It was suspected that he looked down on this stubborn husband. From the etiquette point of view,
Judging from the above, the two parties have basically become incompatible factions.
Yun Zheng didn't understand why Wang Anshi came here alone. As a political advisor, he had no shortage of staff around him. Even though Lu Huiqing had been killed by Xiaoman, Zeng Bu, Li Ding, Deng Shao, Schumann, etc.
Xie Jingwen, Cai Bian, Zhang Zhun, and Lu Jia asked where these famous reform cadres had gone? How could Wang Anshi be left here alone?
"When Wang Jiefu's mother gave birth to him, a badger ran into the delivery room and disappeared in an instant, so this person was nicknamed "Badger Lang"."
"The badger is a creature that is good at digging in the soil, lives in burrows in the mountains, and hides day and night. It is very annoying."
"Brothers, I don't know, there is a strange man named Li Shining in Jingzhao Mansion. This man's eyes have the ability to discern heavenly secrets. After meeting Wang Jiefu, he only said "Badger" and left. That's why Wang Jiefu became "Badger Man"
Such a title."
"I just saw Yun Changsheng. He was taken to the back house by his master. It seems that he went to pay homage to the old lady. Yun Changsheng is known as the tiger with eye-catching white forehead. He knew that his body was too evil, so in order to bring it to others
Inconvenient, he rarely attends wedding banquets like this, why are you here today?"
"Brother Wen doesn't know that Mrs. Lu, the housewife of the Yun family, once asked the old lady for advice on how to educate her children. The old lady disliked the chaos of the Yun family, so she refused.
Yun Changsheng came here this time just because he has been working with Huang Menlang for a long time and planned to come to ask the old lady for advice in person."
"Oh, I see, Yun Changsheng and brother Yun Changsheng were born in the wilderness. Although they were taught by strangers, they did not learn the etiquette."
"Well, although Yiren's knowledge is profound and profound, the Yun brothers are also geniuses in the world. It's a pity that Yiren does whatever they want. The Yun brothers are naturally infected with these habits. Although their brothers can shine for a while, if they want to last, they must learn from the old lady.
I would like to ask you for advice on how to run a family."
When there were more people, everything was said. Yun Zheng hid behind a pillar and listened for a long time. He really couldn't listen anymore. Then he came out and shouted at the officials: "Do more business and talk less gossip. The most annoying thing is
The funny thing is, why did you only say that I am a tiger and not say that Han Qi is a white elephant? I heard everything you said."
The faces of all the officials changed greatly, and they all saluted and apologized. Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "My Yunhuo's name was given by His Majesty. It has been determined. You can just say it. The Councilor for Political Affairs is the top official of our court."
, talk bad about people behind their backs."
All the officials looked at the general who liked to listen to the wall and were speechless. They had no choice but to say "offense, offence" repeatedly, and then dispersed in a hurry.
The banquet has not yet started, drums and drums are playing in the Li family's house, and there is endless cheers. Yun Zheng asked a servant to bring a jug of wine. After getting the jug, he came to Wang Anshi and deliberately chose a vantage point. Otherwise, otherwise
In the summer, one could be suffocated to death by the smell of Wang Anshi's body.
After sending away the Li family, Yun Zheng put the wine pot on the table, looked at Wang Anshi who looked at him coldly and said, "Brother Jiefu, why are you so hostile to me?"
Wang Anshi looked at Yun Zheng and said word by word: "Your Yun family owns more than 6,380 acres of fertile land. Why is it that only 3,100 acres are recorded in the tax books of Kaifeng Mansion? Yun Changsheng, tell me.
, where did the remaining 3,280 acres of tax revenue go?"
Yun Zheng chuckled and said: "A clerical error, a clerical error, it must be a clerical error. The housekeeper at home is stupid and it is understandable that he made some miscalculations of the accounts."
Wang Anshi sighed sadly and said: "The Yun family, who is famous for his arithmetic, can miscalculate such a simple land account book. Come to think of it, there are countless acres in the world that have been hidden invisible by a bald pen of an official."
Yun Zheng frowned and said: "Don't think of yourself as a saint. I have a question. As long as you can give me a clear answer, I will immediately go to Kaifeng Mansion to report the hidden property of the Yun family, and then I will pay the arrears accumulated over the years."
All the land tax has been paid, what do you think?"
Wang Anshi gritted his teeth and said: "You are one of the smartest people in the world. I would like to hear your opinion on my reform."
Yun Zheng nodded and said: "Today is Mrs. Li's birthday, I don't know how old it is. I just want to ask you about the "Market Change Law" and the "Uniform Loss Law"."
Wang Anshi said with his hands solemnly: "Please!"
Yun Zheng collected his thoughts and said slowly: "I know why you came up with the "Market Change Method" and "Equal Loss Method", and I also understand your original intention.
The purpose of the Equalized Transmission Law and the Market Change Law is to stabilize prices and curb the monopoly and exploitation of the common people by big businessmen, right?"
Wang Anshi nodded in agreement.
Yun Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Do you know the consequences of doing this? In my opinion, the essence of this policy is to replace private business with government and business.
Don’t you know that government and businessmen are worse than private businessmen?
There is still competition between private and commercial businesses, and the degree of monopoly and ability is limited, and the degree of exploitation is also limited. However, when the state monopolizes the market, supply of goods, and prices, the objects of its exploitation are expanded to private businesses and ordinary people.
Under this new law, government officials control the source of goods as well as sales. Ordinary businessmen, no matter how big or small, must first go through several approvals from officials before doing business.
You have been an official for many years, and you should know that as long as there is approval, bribery will inevitably occur, and transaction costs will be greatly increased due to bribery of officials.
As a result, not to mention rising prices, many businessmen will be unable to continue operating, and it is inevitable that industry and commerce will decline.
Tell me, apart from the officials with the power to trade getting rich, what benefits does it bring to the entire society and the people?" (To be continued)
