What does it feel like to have money in your pocket!
That is a full sense of security, a feeling of not panicking at all.
Although living in Bianjing is not easy, if you save money, you can use it until the end of the year.
Zhang Yue returned to the inn with a heavy bag of money and was about to take Huang Haoyi and Tang Jiu to wander around!
Zhang Yue had not gone far to Baokangmen Street when he saw a group of people blocking him.
Zhang Yue subconsciously covered the money in his pocket and looked at the other person, and couldn't help but said: "I don't care!"
Zhang Yue was surprised to find that the other party was none other than Zhang Yu and his second aunt's family boss. At first, he suspected that he relied on Zhang Dun's reputation to get into the county school.
Zhang Yue occasionally dreamed of such people in his dreams, and he hated them so much.
However, looking at the large number of people on the other side, Zhang Yue smiled and said politely: "Isn't this the old man in charge? It's a pleasure to meet you. It's a pleasure to meet you."
The old governor also said with a smile on his face: "Mr. Sanlang came all the way to Bianjing without even informing his family. I'm really disappointed."
Zhang Yue said with a smile: "I'm busy with things. I'll go visit you in two days. I hope I'll let you know."
Zhang Yue wanted to leave, but he saw several tall servants blocking him.
"What does this mean?"
The old man said with a smile: "Sanlang came to Bianjing, but he didn't even see his uncle, aunt, and brother. If this spread spreads, he will have a reputation of being disrespectful and disloyal. For us officials, reputation is more important than life. , now I happened to meet Mr. Sanlang, so I will take you to the house. Please forgive me for being disrespectful, Mr. Sanlang. "
After speaking, several strong men did not allow Zhang to go any further and forced him into a carriage.
After Zhang Yue got on the carriage, two big men held him hostage on the left and right, while the old governor sat opposite him and stared at him.
Zhang Yue smiled reluctantly and said, "This carriage is quite spacious."
The old governor laughed and said, "Mr. Sanlang is really a smart man. I thought I would have to waste more words."
Zhang Yue smiled and said: "Whatever, I have walked more bridges than I have walked. I just want to obey your orders."
Immediately the carriage started moving.
Outside the car curtain is the bustling market in Bianjing. Zhang Yue is surrounded by big men. He can't look back and can only look at the old face of the old man. Although he wanted to step on his face, Zhang Yue still managed to squeeze out a smile.
The old man said with a smile: "Sanlangjun, you are a wise gentleman. He reminds me of my youth. There may be some words that Sanlangjun doesn't want to hear, but I still want to say them."
"Old Chief, please speak!"
The old man said: "The villain grew up in Pucheng. His family was poor since he was a child. If I didn't sell myself as a slave, my younger brother would starve to death. Therefore, when he was six years old, he was taken in by his master and survived. From then on, the villain knew a person. The truth is, if you can't live in one place, if you don't die, others will die. It's better to change the place and move the dead people to live."
"When we arrive at Master Lang's house, even the slaves have food to eat and clothes to wear. Finally, we don't have to worry about what to eat tomorrow or whether they will starve to death. But there are more than just servants in the yard. The villain treats those who are almost the same as me. The eldest servant boy is very kind, and he also wants to repay Master Lang for his life-saving grace."
"But those people don't appreciate it. If you please the master, others will beat you up and make you a little stumbling block. If you don't please me, then there will be no room for you in the yard. It didn't take long for me to learn how to ignore the high and the low." , if you are generally kind to everyone, even dogs will not be able to tolerate you. Whether you are kind or not depends on the person."
Hearing this, the smile on Zhang Yue's face disappeared, and instead he said: "Old Du Guan, keep talking."
The other party smiled and said: "Later, the villain was appreciated by Master Lang and became the governor of the mansion. There are many people in the mansion who like the villain, and those who don't like the villain are not good. But the villain is doing things in the mansion. , never look at whether you like someone or not. Because the person you like will fall out with you one day, and the person you don’t like will be closer to you than your biological brother one day. There are two words of profit and loss in this process. Regardless of profit or loss, Is there anyone who is consistent?”
When Zhang Yue heard this, he struggled a little in his heart.
But I saw the old governor smiled and said: "Yes. But the old slave has lived for most of his life and has never seen a person who is about to die."
Zhang Yue listened to Lao Duguan's words and suddenly felt a little refreshed and couldn't help but said: "Lao Duguan's knowledge is higher than that of many ministers in the court!"
The old man Fu Xu smiled and said: "Mr. Sanlang laughed at me. These words were rotten in my stomach, but who said that I and Mr. Sanlang would fall in love at first sight."
"Don't be too clear about your life. How can a person walk in the world without being wronged? Fighting is satisfying for a while, but you will regret it after a long time. In today's world, if a person could understand what it means to be humble and petty, he would be polite and honest. If you leave it aside, the road will go smoothly as soon as possible.”
"I just regret that too many people put benevolence, justice and morality on their lips. By the time they take the wrong path, they have already wasted half their life and it is already too late to look back. It is a pity that these people could not listen to the truth when they were young and had to be coaxed. Okay, why should I tell the truth to such a arrogant person? But Mr. Sanlang is a smart man, and I just said a few words from the bottom of my heart."
After listening to this, Zhang Yue said: "Old Du Guan's words are really good advice. I have learned a lesson."
Zhang Yue thought to himself, if you carefully consider the other party's words, you can really learn a lot.
At this time, the carriage had stopped at a place. Zhang Yue couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw a plaque with the word "Zhang Mansion" hanging outside the door.
The old governor looked at Zhang Yue's face and finally said: "Now that we have reached the end of the road, I will give you one last word to Mr. Sanlang. Don't think too kindly about people. The more kindly you think, the more disappointed you will be. On the contrary, you will treat everyone with kindness." As a villain, the day will be fine."
Zhang Yuefu glanced at the old governor and said with a smile: "A foolish woman from Kuaiji buys ministers lightly, how can I be a Penggao?"
"What?"
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "I don't care what you said is right."
After speaking, Zhang Yue jumped off the carriage and shook his sleeves.
Yes, what Lao Duguan said makes sense, but only to most people, not to him.
The reason why some people are like this all their lives is that they only work hard to understand the world but do not understand themselves.
Who am I, Shogosaburo Shokoshi?
There's something wrong with me!
At this moment, the panic in Zhang Yue's heart disappeared. He put his hands behind his back and walked in with his head held high... He didn't pay attention for a moment and tripped.
The threshold for Zhangfu is very high, you are careless!
At Ouyang's house.
Ouyang Fa left Ouyang Xiu's study and returned to the house.
As soon as Wu saw him, he went up to him and said, "Why did you talk to dad for so long?"
Ouyang Fa said: "We had a good conversation, but Mr. Anding came to visit dad at home."
"Are you coming to the mansion at such a late hour?"
Ouyang Fa nodded and said sadly: "Yes, sir, he has always been in poor health. He had long wanted to become an official. He was just afraid that if he left early, he would be disgraced by Xianggong Fan's entrustment and his father's high regard, so he supported his illness and stayed at the Imperial College. ."
"In addition to using his official salary and money to buy medicine and some other expenses, he also used it to supplement the Imperial Academy. There is no one from a poor family in the Imperial Academy who has not benefited from his favor. Now that he is gone, where can he find such a good teacher? "
Wu said: "You have been taught by him for many years. When he left, you did your best to ensure that this teacher-student relationship was not in vain."
Ouyang Fa was moved and said: "You are really my good wife, I also want this."
Wu said shyly: "You and I are still talking about this. That's right. What does daddy want to ask you for?"
Ouyang Fa said: "I didn't talk about anything. I just want me to study hard and don't... don't imitate the officials' children outside. They expect favors to be promoted to officials and refuse to study and make progress."
Wu said: "You hesitated for a moment just now. Did dad use the example of my Wu family to warn you?"
Ouyang's hair color changed and he said, "My wife is amazing. I really can't hide anything from you."
Mrs. Wu sighed and said: "There is nothing you can do about it. Do you think I don't know how people criticize me outside? They say that the boys of my Wu family are not as good as the girls. But they know that several of my younger sisters from the Wu family married into the prime minister's house." , how are your days now?"
Ouyang Fa said: "Madam, in the final analysis, this marriage matter, we are in the same family. I am not saying that you are high-ranking, but the Wu family's family status today is still lower than that of Han, Lu, Pang and others."
Mrs. Wu looked at Ouyang Fa and said, "What do you mean, am I right to marry you just after I marry you?"
Ouyang Fa laughed dryly and changed the subject: "Yes, did you know that when your husband came to see your father, he not only talked about becoming an official, but also mentioned one person?"
"who?"
"It's Zhang Saburo!"
"Is it him again?" Wu was surprised, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"
Ouyang smiled and said, "Sir, I showed my father the articles he wrote when he took the imperial examination. Do you think it's a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Even Mr. Anding thinks so highly of him? How many days has he been in the capital?" Wu couldn't help but feel a little lost.
Xunwu asked again: "What do you think of him?"
Ouyang Fa thought for a while and said: "We just met him once, but he is the elder brother of Zhang Ziping, the number one scholar in the Jin Dynasty. There is another thing I just found out. This person's biological elder brother abandoned the imperial edict and refused to be awarded an official. Zhang Zihou!"
"Ah? Is it the Zhang Zihou who did not do as well as his nephew in the exam and gave up his official position?"
Ouyang laughed and said: "Yes, madam, who is this person? How can their clansmen be so inferior? Otherwise, Mr. Boyi and Mr. Biaomin will not recommend him to daddy."
"But dad has been too busy recently, and I was not going to see him. But after what I said to Mr. Anding, I have now posted a message asking him to come over."
"Daddy is going to meet him in person now?"
Wu paced and pondered, then she said: "If Zhang Zihou is such an incompetent person, how can his brother be any better? Yes, do you know if he is married at home?"
Ouyang Fa was stunned for a moment and said: "There are so many, how could I know? Madam, why are you asking about such details?"
"I..." Wu thought for a while and said, "I can't explain it to you right now, that's all."
Wu can't help but have a lot of thoughts at the moment. If her guess is true, then...
Ouyang Fa saw Mrs. Wu frowning and thinking under the lamp. It was like looking at a beauty under the lamp. The more she looked at her, the more beautiful she looked. He couldn't help but said: "Madam, the night is deep, let's go to bed."
After saying that, Ouyang Fa blew out the candle...
In the dark, he heard Mrs. Wu say without any mood: "Don't sleep with me today! Go to the study and sleep!"
