Chapter four hundred and twentieth the autumn wind has not yet arrived at the cicada prophet
Zhang Shou heard Lu Sanlang's deep resentment, and he was also angry at first. He couldn't help being amused by the little fat man's words, and immediately asked: "It's rare for you to make your own decisions. How can you do this?"
Is it to break up Xu Heizi and me? Do you hate that black-faced eunuch so much?"
Lu Sanlang suddenly said confidently: "I and people like Xu Heizi are naturally at odds with each other! He put on a critical expression of "I'm just staring at you every day, you kid, don't let me take advantage of it." It's uncomfortable! I'm the most
I hate this kind of guy who doesn’t care about humanity and only cares about rules. He is even more annoying than my dad’s character of using it when it’s useful and throwing it away when it’s not useful!”
"I scolded the two idiots of Jiuzhangtang this time. I told them that I am the chief of Jiuzhangtang. I am not helping them for nothing. They can do things for me in the future to compensate.
Why did you go to the Shengzhen Hall to beg Xu Heizi? If the young master is gone, I will be in charge! Originally, I wanted them to return the dormitory, but then I thought about it, let Xu Heizi go this time to show the enemy's weakness."
Lu Sanlang even said something to show weakness to the enemy, Zhang Shou couldn't help but smile. However, he was more curious about another thing: "What about you? Your father should treat your son differently now.
You gave me your apartment, are you willing to move back?"
"Why should I move back? Hey, little sir, do you still remember that next door to Xiao Cheng, I bought the old house of Mr. Liu Zhiyuan, Mr. Zhu's teacher, and Mr. Liu? You also gave Zhao Siluo Xiao Guanqiu some time before.
They settled it there, but now hasn't the entire workshop been moved to Zhang Yuan and all the houses have been vacated?"
However, when he saw Zhang Shou suddenly enlightened and nodded, as if he thought he would move there, Lu Sanlang laughed and said: "Actually, I lost the bet with that little guy Xiao Cheng, so I rented that place
Next door to the old house is Xiao Cheng’s house.”
As he spoke, Lu Sanlang stretched out two fingers and shook them, and said with a heartbroken face: "It costs two guan of money every month!"
If he hadn't known that Little Fatty was a good actor who debuted earlier than Zhang Chen and was more professional, Zhang Shou would have wanted to give Lu Sanlang a slap in the face. Not to mention two dollars, even twenty dollars and two hundred dollars, for Little Fatty
, is also a small number that is not worth mentioning. Fortunately, Lu Sanlang said it in a serious manner!
However, Lu Sanpang said that Xiao Cheng's old house was next door to Xiao Cheng's. In fact, the Liu family's old house had long been changed to Lu. Now he said that Xiao Cheng's own house was rented. This is completely wrong. Think about this.
He had already concluded that there must be something fishy about the little fat man's temperament.
So, Zhang Shou glanced at Lu Sanlang with a half-smile, suddenly put away the key he had just given, turned around and left. Sure enough, before he had even taken a few steps, he heard heavy footsteps behind him.
There was a sound, but Lu Sanlang hurriedly chased after him. While chasing, he was busy explaining: "Little sir, little sir, don't leave! I'm not trying to show off, but..."
"You're just used to talking nonsense, right?" Zhang Shou didn't look back, but he laughed and said, "You have such a twisted and twisted mind, you think I don't know? That kid Xiao Cheng has no one to rely on.
, the only person you regard as your elder brother is your eldest brother Yingying, but now he is still in Cangzhou, even in the capital, his character does not get along with you, you will definitely not try to please Brother Zhu, because it is useless to please him. "
Lu Sanlang immediately scratched his head in disbelief, coughed and said: "The young gentleman has a keen eye. I was tricked by Zhu Er back then, and my father has ulterior motives. I wish I could stay as far away from Boss Zhu as possible."
How far can you go to please him?"
He was just afraid of being beaten up by Boss Zhu, and there was no way to explain that!
Seeing Zhang Shou but smiling without saying a word, Lu Sanlang looked around and made sure that get out of class had not ended yet and there was no one else around. He took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "Didn't my father resign as Minister of War?" ?That Zhao Shilang has also gone to Yunnan and Guizhou. Now the right minister named Yan is the temporary acting minister of the Ministry of War. However, this guy has very little qualifications and will definitely not be able to become a regular official."
Zhang Shou did not expect that Lu Sanlang would think of the hot vacancy of Minister of the Ministry of War. He pondered for a while, and suddenly his heart moved. He immediately stared at Lu Sanlang and said word by word: "Do you think Yingying, his eldest brother's teacher,
Mr. Liu Zhiyuan, who once served as the minister of the Ministry of War, but later became idle at home and sadly left the capital due to the death of his old wife, maybe there is hope?"
"Hey, little sir, your guess is really accurate!"
Lu Sanlang smiled so much that his eyebrows narrowed, and then he said with joy: "It is reasonable for a wife to mourn her old husband, but there are very few people who still do this now. I think after the death of Mrs. Zhao Guo, Duke Zhao Guo
He has not been with women for more than two years, and many people secretly say that he is hypocritical. I sent someone to find out that Mr. Liu returned to his hometown, married a house and stayed with his old wife for a year. "
Hearing this, Zhang Shou couldn't help but feel a little emotional - although Taizu did not prohibit women from remarrying, and even encouraged widows to remarry, the rate of widows remarrying was far lower than that of widowers. As for some men who remarried within a few months after losing their wives.
, that’s even more common.
Therefore, those who can mourn for their wives will always be praised as being affectionate and affectionate. As for why Zhu Jing was criticized for being hypocritical - it is probably because Zhu Jing spent too much time as a widower.
Long...because a wife is mourning her husband after her death, but she doesn't say she can't get close to beautiful concubines and maidservants...
His reverie flew ninety thousand miles away, but he quickly put it back. He gestured for Lu Sanlang to come forward and walk side by side with him, and then asked angrily: "Don't just talk about these hearsay details.
, let’s get to the point!”
Lu Sanlang was just accustomed to going around in circles. When Zhang Shou said this, he quickly laughed and said: "I originally wanted to inquire about Mr. Liu's situation. I will tell Mr. Zhu later that you can sell a good deal to Mr. Zhu."
.This old Liu lived in a hut and guarded the tomb, and several children from the surrounding common people ran to play. He actually read Tang poems to enlighten people, and three of them were smart and went to study every day..."
Listen, where can I find such a probing student? It’s really not surprising that a fat guy like Lu Sanlang is where he is today!
Zhang Shou glanced at this pervasive boy and couldn't help but laugh: "You are planning ahead. What will happen after you find out these irrelevant information?"
"Later, I asked someone to pretend to be Mr. Zhu's personal entourage to persuade Mr. Liu to return to Beijing."
Lu Sanlang blinked his eyes seriously: "But this is really not easy. Old man Liu has a stubborn temper. He said that he hated the officialdom and refused to come back. What did he say about a responsible and responsible person like Mr. Zhu?
Courageous students will be satisfied and spend the rest of their lives teaching a few young men at home, and will be too lazy to care about worldly affairs. Later...hehe!"
When Lu Sanlang saw that Zhang Shou looked weird because of his laughter, he laughed even more mischievously.
"I told him about your suggestion to my father to build a public school. As a result, old man Liu, who was still indifferent at first, became excited immediately! He said that he hated it the most in his life.
, that is, some people misinterpret the original meaning of the Master and say that people can follow it but cannot understand it!"
"What he hopes most is that the people of the world have enough food and clothing to know honor and disgrace. They can read and write, so that mediocre officials and traitors do not control the channels for interpreting imperial decrees. What he hopes most is that not only poor people can read, but also poor people.
They can also read, and farmers are even more able to read. In this way, the ascending channel will always remain open, and the world will not be a stagnant pool!"
"So, in June, I have already set off for Beijing! I am doing a lot of construction work on the house next to Xiao Cheng to restore it to its original state. Otherwise, if Old Man Liu comes back and finds that this was once a blacksmith shop and a carpenter's shop, he will be furious to death.
?This is why I made a bet with Xiao Cheng. I said that at such a young age, he would not be able to remember what the Liu family used to be like, but he turned out to be very reasonable."
"The bet is that if I win, he will be my servant for a year. I will let him go east, but he cannot go west."
"As for if he wins, then I will move into his house and give him two dollars a month as rent money. And I will take care of all his food, clothing, housing and transportation. In the end, if I lose, of course I am willing to admit defeat. According to
What he said is that we should quickly renovate the house and wait for the original owner to come back and live in it!"
"Anyway, the personal attendant I sent has gained a lot of favor for us teachers and students in front of Mr. Liu, and he praised me in the tone of Mr. Zhu. I heard that people keep praising me!"
Hearing this, Zhang Shou finally couldn't help but give Lu Sanlang a thumbs up. Not to mention the fact that this boy is aware of the subtleties, or the sensitivity of a cicada who is a prophet before the autumn wind arrives, but this one seems careless, but is actually meticulous.
The mind is indeed beyond the reach of most people.
Lu Wan really judged people based on their appearance at first, and lost Ziyu! Now, do you feel that your son was raised in vain? It’s too late to regret it!
He smiled and praised: "You are killing two birds with one stone. Xiao Cheng is young, but his mind is sensitive and delicate. Yingying, her elder brother and I were not here before, thanks to you taking care of us like this."
Lu Sanlang suddenly beamed with joy. Even though some people were fawning over him, he still wanted to hear Zhang Shou's praise the most, because it was much more real than the flattery. At that moment, he said cheerfully: "That boy is stubborn and stubborn.
From time to time it would scratch people like a cat, so I had no choice but to stroke it along its fur."
Living in the capital is not easy. Not to mention firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, everything is expensive. The most expensive thing is the rent - which is comparable to the high housing prices and rents in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou in later generations. Therefore, don't look at the high-ranking officials of the third grade.
, private life may be to rent a small courtyard, and a family of more than ten people may live together.
And more officials in the capital had to endure the long nights of loneliness and serve as officials alone in the capital. Otherwise, how would they be able to support their families?
Therefore, a small house in the capital is really the capital for a family to live and settle down. For example, in Xiao Cheng's family, even if he is the only child left, he can actually make a living by renting out the house - of course, if he encounters a vicious tenant, he will turn against the guest and even
If you murder the homeowner, that's out of the question.
Since Xiao Cheng got acquainted with Zhang Shou and others, and then worked as a handyman in the Imperial College, the little guy's desire to be self-reliant became even stronger. Although he reunited with Zhu Tingfang later, he was unwilling to even accept Zhu Tingfang's financial support for his food and clothing.
I must be self-reliant.
Even if Zhu Tingfang said it several times, it was difficult to persuade him. In the past, when there was a blacksmith shop and a carpenter's shop next door, at least someone could ask him to work with him for a nominal fee. Now Zhao Siluo Xiaoxiao and Guan Qiu
When everyone and their apprentices moved to Zhang Yuan, the old house next door to the Xiao family was vacated. When Lu Sanlang came over to guide the renovation of the old house, he discovered the "tragic situation" of the Xiao family.
That's more than just dust in the house! From inside to outside the house, everything is messy, and the kitchen stove is covered with a layer of dust. I don't know how this kid lives at home except doing odd jobs, eating, and studying in the Imperial College.
So, Lu Sanlang rolled his eyes and made a bet with Xiao Cheng that killed two birds with one stone.
After telling the whole story, Lu Sanlang said with a smile: "I told Xu Heizi that this dormitory will be shared by my teachers and students in the future. If he dares to make any plans again, I won't give up on him even if he files a lawsuit!
"
"You, it's bad luck for Xu Heizi if he messes with you!" Zhang Shou was too lazy to pay attention to the dispute between Lu Sanlang and Xu Heijun, and laughed at it. However, when he came outside Lu Sanlang's house, he suddenly
I just heard the little fat man yelling.
"Ouch, that's too bad! Ah Liu usually delivers lunch to Mr. Liu. If he still sends it there according to his old habit, wouldn't it be an advantage to others? No, no, no, I have to go and see it quickly..."
Before Lu Sanlang finished speaking, he heard a faint voice coming from above his head: "Do you think I'm wood?"
The little fat man hurriedly raised his head and saw Ah Liu slipping quietly from the roof. He couldn't help but widen his eyes. Then he hurriedly looked at the door that was locked when he left, but saw that the padlock was long gone. He turned around almost immediately.
Looking at Ah Liu, he found that there was a lock spinning in his hand, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. Didn't Ah Liu just enter his dormitory like this?
This time, even Zhang Shou couldn't help but scolded: "Ah Liu, how could you break into Lu Sanlang's residence?"
"I didn't break in. I just followed someone here. When I saw someone unlocking the padlock with a copper wire, he slipped in and looked around, so I followed him to see what he was looking for." At this point, I saw Zhang Shou and Lu Sanlang at the same time.
His face changed slightly, and he pointed to the dormitory with the door ajar and said, "The person is still tied up inside, do you want to interrogate him?"
Lu Sanlang was so angry that he almost turned green: "My dormitory is not a confidential place, how could someone sneak into my place?"
"Ah Liu, you haven't asked him why he came here? Did anyone instigate him?" Zhang Shou directly asked Ah Liu first. When he saw the person, he shook his head. He simply opened the door and went in. He didn't see anyone at first sight.
.If it were anyone else, he might have thought that the person had run away, but relying on his usual understanding of Ah Liu, he raised his head thoughtfully. It was okay not to look at it. After taking a look, he almost laughed out loud because he was originally suspicious.
.
I just saw people being tied up and hung up, just like a big fat pig with four hooves tied up and impaled on a pole; if the mouth wasn't blocked by a ball of rags, and being hung up, it would be completely impossible to struggle.
, at this time he believed that he would definitely hear a miserable cry.
Even Lu Sanlang, who was originally angry, looked up along Zhang Shou's line of sight and found this scene. After he laughed, he couldn't help but shuddered. Regardless of whether it was a thief or something else, he bumped into Ah
In the hands of the evil star Liu, this guy is in bad luck!
