The system wants my local master gl

Tang Hao thought that Liu Chuo took him to some unscrupulous places. In fact, Liu Chuo had a banquet with his colleagues during the Lantern Festival, and he brought his family and Tang Haogen to the banquet.

The place where the banquet was held was a restaurant near Nengren Temple, and there were civil and military officials such as Tongpan's family, magistrate, Yin County Magistrate, and Bingma Dujian in attendance.

Among these people, Liu Chuo had the highest official position, so Tang Haogen followed him and attracted some attention.Liu Chuo specifically asked him not to wear the clothes of a subordinate official. If he wore them, others would regard him as Liu Chuo's servant, and they would not look down on him at all.

After drinking for three rounds, the civil servants headed by Liu Chuo will inevitably start to discuss literature with each other, and military officers such as Bingmadujian, although they also have eighth-rank officials, have always been looked down upon by literati, so they have nothing to say at the moment.

Tang Haogen didn't have the bad habit of civil servants, and he chatted very congenially with the subordinates of Bingmadujian, so Bingmadujian paid attention to him.

During the meeting before, Liu Chuo also mentioned that he is the official of the state government office. Although he is also at the lower end of the chain of contempt, his conversation and attitude made the soldiers and horses put down their prejudices and recruited him. Come to ask a question.

While Tang Haogen was chatting, he also forgot Liu Chuo's real purpose for bringing him here. When the banquet was about to end, Tang Haogen had accumulated enough favorability with the Bingmadujian, and Liu Chuo came to discuss the affairs of the state with the Bingmadujian again. , pretending to casually say that Tang Haogen is currently single and waiting to be married.

Liu Chuo didn't hide that he was optimistic about Tang Haogen. On the contrary, as Liu Chuo's subordinate, Tang Haogen didn't have any parents or elders who could preside over lifelong events for him. If he was worried about the peak, others would say he was sympathetic to his subordinates.

The soldiers and horses all sensed Liu Chuo's intentions.I didn't think Liu Chuo was doing something wrong, after all, he often did this kind of thing, but he didn't have a daughter of the right age who was suitable for Tang Haogen.

It just so happened that his subordinate, Chen Du inspector from Mingzhou, came to report to him about the Lantern Festival inspection, and he remembered that Chen Du inspector had a daughter who was waiting to be married, so he asked him, "Have you found a suitable husband's family? "

Speaking of this matter, Chen Du's inspections gave him a headache.Although he is also a Zhima official of the ninth rank, he only cares about the training of soldiers in Mingzhou, patrolling the prefectures, arresting thieves, etc., but he is a military officer after all, and he is the most excluded and discriminated against in this officialdom where literature is the most important thing, so he wants to find Civil servants come from an official family, and they look down on him; if he is asked to find ordinary people, he dislikes that those people are of white origin.

He searched and searched but couldn't find a suitable one, so his daughter was dragged until she was 19 and she was not married yet.

The Bingmadujian introduced Tang Haogen to him, saying that although this young man only works as a pawn in the Yamen, he is very upright and has helped Zhizhou solve many problems. If you go back to read the books, as long as you don't become a subordinate in the future, you can still return to the road of scientific research.

At first hearing, Chen Du inspector was not satisfied with his background, even if he could find a poor scholar, he would not be able to find a subordinate!But since it was recommended by his boss and Zhizhou together, he couldn't say clearly that Tang Haogen was not good, so he just said haha, saying that he listened to his wife on this matter, and he had to go back and discuss it with his wife before making a decision.

Liu Chuo and Bingmadujian didn't care about his polite refusal, they just glanced at Tang Haogen.

It was Tang Haogen's first blind date, and he was still very nervous, but he didn't think about climbing high, so he was already prepared for the blind date to fail.Although he was a little frustrated at the moment, it didn't show on his face.

Bingma Dujian nodded approvingly, and was very satisfied with his performance. From this, it can be seen that he is different from those uneducated subordinates, at least he will not embarrass his boss.

After a banquet, Liu Chuo was completely integrated into the officialdom of Mingzhou. He was no longer as reckless as he was when he first came last year, and he was gearing up to implement his plan again.

When he went back, he asked Tang Haogen if he felt disappointed that he didn't find a suitable family today.

How could Tang Haogen admit it!His biggest gain from today's banquet was his appearance in front of many Mingzhou officials. He shouldn't and won't only think about his own lifelong events.

Liu Chuo smiled, he really saw the right person, if Tang Haogen only cared about his own marriage, he might feel that Tang Haogen was short-sighted and would not dare to entrust him with important responsibilities.

Tang Haogen secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he didn't tell the truth to A Zhi and the others, otherwise they failed to meet each other today, wouldn't they make them laugh?At that time, my big brother will lose face!I don't know how Azhi and Xiaoye are at home...

Compared to his elder brother's failed blind date, which was a big setback, Tang Zhi and Song Yuyan went out today to live a fulfilling life and have fun.

She is no longer envious of the bustling Kaiyuan Temple in Shaoxing, because she feels that this year's Lantern Festival, even in a small town like Cixi County, can leave her with unforgettable memories.

After the show ended, it was getting late, so she went back with Song Yuyan.Before returning to the alley, Tang Zhi quickly pulled away the hand holding Song Yuyan. She didn't look at Song Yuyan, but explained: "People will gossip if they see it."

Song Yuyan smiled apologetically: "I was negligent, and I won't do it next time."

Tang Zhi wished there would be a next time, how could she really be like this!He said: "Forget it, you are also worried that I will be squeezed away by the crowd."

Song Yuyan had a smile on his lips, but in his heart he pondered the thoughts that had just arisen.

Tang Zhi likes to do movie theater, but movie theater is not a festival, so only some prosperous big cities have fixed tables, so it is still very difficult to watch movie in Cixi County.

And she dare not say that she is proficient in all traditional handicrafts, but shadow puppetry is a traditional art that is still well-known in later generations, and she still has mastered some production skills.

Since playing shadow plays can make Miss Tang happy, she might as well make some shadow puppets and give them to Miss Tang.

It's just that her working hours for the past six months are full. If she wants to make shadow puppets, she will have to wait for the income from the vegetable garden to come up, and the wax garden can pass the first hurdle smoothly.

Although he couldn't spare time to make shadow puppets immediately, Song Yuyan still regarded it as a task that must be realized and took it to heart.

A few days later, Li Sigu came to the door at the time agreed with Song Yuyan. When he saw the pile of treated bamboo in the Song family, he basically believed that she was Lufang.When I looked at Song Yuyan's Liuqing bamboo carving, I felt ashamed of "how could I suspect that he is not Lufang".

He brought his own paintings here today, firstly, to discuss and learn from Song Yuyan about the paintings, and secondly, he also wanted Song Yuyan.

Although his paintings have received a lot of praise in the literati circle, but because he was too proud in his early years, his mouth was too easy to offend people, so gradually many literati are unwilling to associate with him.

Only when he came to his senses did he realize that because literati were unwilling to associate with him, fellow painters wished that he would be excluded from the circle and would not communicate with him at all. Gradually, his paintings became less famous. In the end, he had to be reduced to selling paintings at street stalls.

Even so, ordinary people don't know how to appreciate paintings. In order to make a living, he has to meet all kinds of weird requests from painters, and paint some content that he didn't like at all before, even some vulgar paintings.

He used to be very proud of his paintings, but now he is down to the point of destroying his pride and self-confidence in order to make a living. He has learned to reflect and change in the setbacks of the past few years.But when he wanted to reconnect with his old friends, he never found such an opportunity.

Later, by chance, I saw Song Yuyan's bamboo carving. He heard that the paintings on it were all drawn by Lufang himself, and the pen holder that Zhizhou always carried with him was Li Cheng's famous painting.

Hearing this, he came up with a thought - can he use Lu Fang's hand to bring himself back to his former glory? !

……

Li Sigu was the first one who wanted to advertise himself through Song Yuyan's bamboo carvings, and he was the kind of person who couldn't afford the advertising sponsorship fee.

He probably knew that his request was very brazen, so Li Sigu didn't dare to look directly at Song Yuyan when he said it, and he lacked confidence.

Through viewing and tasting just now, Song Yuyan found that Li Sigu's landscape paintings are more prominent in layering and three-dimensionality, giving people a strong sense of reality.But in order to carve such a painting, how to reflect the layering and three-dimensional sense is the most important.

Coincidentally, Song Yuyan's carving technique can give people the most visual impact, and if combined with his paintings, they will complement each other.

After listening to Li Sigu's request, she thought amusedly that Li Sigu's paintings are indeed of artistic quality. Even after studying traditional Chinese painting for more than ten years, she dare not boast that she must be better than him in painting.If it is in modern times, his paintings must be bought from him at a high price, and then used in mass production of bamboo carvings.

It's just that he wants to use her reputation to gain popularity for himself, so he thinks of her too much.

"Forgive me for not being able to promise the official."

Li Sigu got the expected answer, and his face was full of disappointment.He still wanted to say something to make Song Yuyan change his mind, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of anything, so he could only say goodbye regretfully.

Song Yuyan didn't keep him either, and sent him out of the door, suddenly remembered his painting, and said, "Officer Li's painting was left in the house, I'll go get it."

Li Sigu said sullenly: "If the recording party doesn't dislike it, I will give it to you. It is a gift of acquaintance."

Song Yuyan said: "Since this is the case, I will accept it. However, courtesy is reciprocal, I will use Li Guanren's painting to carve a green bamboo carving, and give it back to Li Guanren!"

Li Sigu was stunned for a moment, then his head twitched, and he said happily: "You promised me?"

Song Yuyan shook his head: "Only one, it's a gift in return."

Li Sigu smiled resentfully, and saluted again: "One piece is enough, thank you!"

Based on the popularity of Song Yuyan's bamboo carvings in Mingzhou, he believes that even if only one bamboo carving with his own work is handed down, as long as there are people who know how to appreciate it, his popularity will slowly accumulate.

After he left, Sun'er asked Song Yuyan: "You don't know what kind of person he is, so you agreed to help him. If he uses your things to do bad things, don't you want to implicate you?"

Song Yuyan pinched his cheek in surprise, and said, "Are you caring about me?"

Sun'er is already 12 years old. In the past two years, with the improvement of diet, his body has developed rapidly, and now he has reached the position of Song Yuyan's ribs. I believe that when he grows up, he will definitely be half a head taller than Song Yuyan.

And as his height grew like a stick, the flesh on his face became much tighter. Song Yuyan couldn't pinch much flesh, so he wondered if he had to improve his food.

But when she turned her head and saw the chubby pancake on her face, she felt that she had found the "culprit" for Sun's thinning.

Sun'er avoided her claws, rubbed her face vigorously, and said, "Who cares about you anymore, I'm going to prepare dinner!"

Bing'er immediately said: "Second brother, I will help you!"

Song Yuyan grabbed her and slipped back: "Should I help him, or steal something?"

Bing'er couldn't believe that her elder brother thought of her so much, she immediately blushed with anger, and even put her hands on her hips, showing that she was angry with Song Yuyan.

Song Yuyan ignored her and threw her back to her room to study - her room was the newly built West Room of the Song family. There were two rooms in total, one as a bedroom for cakes and the other as a utility room.Although Sun'er offered to exchange the room next to the main room for her because she was so kind to their brothers and sisters, she disliked the poor lighting there, so she only refurbished the east room where she lived, and did not move out there.

With the new utility room, her room was much larger, so she separated a small single room near the window as her study room for working, reading and writing.

As for the side of the house, it is still the kitchen.

Tang Zhi sent Tang Ye’s “Shuxiu”—two bundles of vegetables to the Song family. He happened to see Song Yuyan “enslaving” child labor Sun’er, so he gave Song Yuyan a supercilious look, and then went straight into the kitchen to help Sun’er.

Seeing that Sun'er seemed to be thinking about something, she was so absent-minded that she cracked an egg and even put less salt, so she reminded: "Sun'er, there is less salt."

Sun'er came back to his senses, although he felt that he had put in enough salt, but he was distracted just now, so he was not sure if he put in the right amount of salt.So he added a handful of salt to it.

Tang Zhi helped him wash the vegetables and asked him, "What are you thinking?"

Sun'er then told about Song Yuyan and Li Sigu, Tang Zhi recalled what Song Yuyan said that day, and said, "What she probably wants to say is, how can you be sure that the other person is a bad person if you haven't gotten along with that person before? Whether the character of the other party is trustworthy or not, you have to get in touch with it to know."

Sun'er said: "This is indeed what he would say."

After a pause, he looked at Tang Zhi again, "Sister Tang, you really understand elder brother, even more than before."

Tang Zhi smiled: "Aren't you too?"

In Sun'er's dark and bright eyes, there was a trace of complicated emotions. He said: "In the past, he wouldn't tell us too much at all. Even if he lived under the same roof, he was just a stranger. But now... I can't Don’t admit it, he is much better and capable than me.”

He can sincerely confide in his heart and admit that he can't keep up with Song Yuyan, which is already a very big change.Tang Zhi felt very relieved, and said compassionately: "Let me cook for you, and you go and read for a while."

She would not admit that she had itchy hands and wanted to see if her cooking skills had improved, so she brought it up on the grounds of helping Sun'er.

Sun'er was a little moved. In his heart, he wanted Sister Tang to be his sister-in-law. In this way, someone would share the housework that Song Yuyan asked him to do!

"Why don't we let Sister Tang get used to life in the Song family?" Sun'er thought secretly, and then pretended to be embarrassed and gave the spoon to Tang Zhi.

Song Yuyan frowned when he found out that Tang Zhi was helping the three of them cook, and wanted to catch the bamboo shoots to receive education.But Tang Zhi first rolled his eyes at her mercilessly: "I volunteered to help Sun'er."

Sun'er complacently showed Song Yuyan a provocative smile, Song Yuyan glanced at him, turned around and asked Binger to call Tang Ye to the house for dinner—Tang Zhi helped cook at any rate, if she didn't keep anyone for dinner, then It's too careless.

Tang Ye thought that the dinner was made by the bamboo shoots, so she didn't think too much about it, and waited for the pancakes to pick up some dishes for her, and said, "This is the dish cooked by Sister Tang, Sister Yezi, eat more."

Tang Ye's chopsticks are almost unsteady - in the Tang family, she does all the steaming, brewing, frying, stuffing, etc., which will add salt, such as making dumplings and vegetable buns. Tang Zhi was in charge of the packaging process.

It's not that Tang Zhi doesn't know how to cook, it's just that her taste is stronger than ordinary people's. She thinks that the dishes taste just right, and Tang Ye basically needs to drink a sip of water after two mouthfuls.So sometimes the Tang family's salt is used up very quickly.

Song Yuyan has already noticed that Tang Zhi has a strong taste. After all, when she and Tang Zhi dined out several times, Tang Zhi would feel that the dishes made by him were too bland, but in her and most diners' opinion , the taste is just right.

Song Yuyan knew that this was not her problem, but Tang Zhi's taste and sense of taste.

It was the first time for bamboo shoots and pancakes to eat rice cooked by Tang Zhi, so one could predict how tragic the dinner scene would be.Sun'er secretly retracted his words, and Song Yuyan didn't need to urge him anymore, he was more active in cooking than anyone else.

Tang Zhi saw from their faces that her cooking skills had not improved. When she was a little disappointed, she saw that Song Yuyan ate as usual, and she said, "It's salty, don't eat it, I'll go home Then order here, let Xiaoye do it this time."

Song Yuyan said: "No, it's not good to waste it."

Looking at Sun'er again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Sun'er, your sister Tang kindly cooks for you, how can you live up to her kindness?"

Sun'er: "..."

He thought it was a blatant mockery.

Song Yuyan looked at the pancakes again, "Eat less pancakes, a few meals will make your face look slimmer."

Cake: "..."

Not eating means that you will be hungry at night. This is a naked threat!

Yielding to Song Yuyan's obscenity, the two little radish heads obediently finished their food. Although they drank half a pot of water afterwards, they still touched their round bellies and asked Song Yuyan, "Brother, when will we have a sister-in-law?"

Song Yuyan said: "Little Luobotou is not qualified to force marriage."
