Fu Tang

Li Congjia took Yang Xin straight to Tianfu while full of doubts.

When they arrived at Tianfu, they were received by Tongpan's wife.

The moment Mrs. Tian saw Li Congjia, a look of embarrassment appeared on her face, and she entertained them very hospitablely, which made both Li Congjia and Yang Xin a little uncomfortable—after all, Mrs. Tian was very dissatisfied with Yang Xin before, and every time they met, she always felt uncomfortable. Very picky.

Li Congjia said: "Eleventh Lang and I came in a hurry, please forgive me, my lady."

Lady Tian immediately said, "It's okay, it's okay."

Li Congjia asked directly: "Just now people came from the house, and the meaning has been expressed clearly, but there is still one thing that I don't understand. Why do you want to get married in such a hurry? This... I'm afraid it's not suitable for etiquette."

Mrs. Tian hesitated and said: "We also know that Yu etiquette is not suitable, but a few days ago a Taoist priest told the fortune of my little girl, saying that she will have a bad omen next year. If you want to get rid of it, you can only marry before the year. I ask Li Xiaolang to be considerate. .”

Damn, feudal superstition?After hearing this, Li Congjia was quite speechless, so he had to say: "I don't know if it's okay to be engaged? Eleventh Lang is still in the filial piety, so I'm afraid it won't work. What's more, it's two months before the end of the year. How can there be time to get married?"

Mrs. Tian said directly: "We have already calculated the date, you don't have to worry about it, as for other preparations, you don't need to do anything, my family will prepare it."

After hearing this, Li Congjia was full of suspicion. He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of the Tian family. Why was he in such a hurry?If he hadn't seen how the Tian family's wife doted on the young girl, Li Congjia would have suspected that they were in a hurry to drive Tian Wuniang out of the house.

Li Congjia insisted: "It's so impolite, let's invite that Taoist priest to see if there is any other way."

The lady of the Tian family was a little anxious when she heard it, and said directly: "People always have to be flexible, not to mention that your brothers have not lived in Jiangning Mansion for a long time, even the neighbors may not know your situation, so what can they say? "

Li Congjia tasted it for a while before he realized that Mrs. Tian meant that she was not polite, and she was afraid of being criticized?If others don't know that you are observing filial piety, no one will care even if you get married.

Li Congjia stood up directly and said with a gloomy face: "I respect you as an elder. I shouldn't be so rude, but keeping filial piety is a courtesy, and it is to express my respect for my ancestors. What does it have to do with others? As a family member of an official, the lady is like this. It's really wrong to say something, today I will pretend that my brother has never been here, and leave!"

After speaking, Li Congjia angrily took Yang Xin away.

After going out and getting into the carriage, Yang Xin looked at Li Congjia's nonchalant appearance and couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty is not angry?"

Li Congjia looked surprised: "Angry? Why are you angry?"

Yang Xin scratched his head: "I thought what Mrs. Tian said made you angry."

Li Congjia smiled slightly: "There's nothing to be angry about. She's right when it comes to what she said. The matter of keeping filial piety has changed a long time ago. More people have to do it because of etiquette. The reason why I showed anger It looks like, mainly because I want to go back and think about it carefully, Mrs. Tongpan is so anxious, there must be something wrong, I just don't know if Tian Tongpan knows about this matter."

Yang Xin asked with some concern: "What if they insist on getting married before the year?"

Li Congjia was inexplicable: "What are you worried about? They insist that we can insist on not agreeing. We are justified in this matter. Even if the public opinion is against us, don't worry about it."

"Then... will it have a great impact on Wu Niang?"

Li Congjia looked at Yang Xin carefully for a long while, and he saw that Yang Xin was hairy all over, and he stammered and asked, "Lang...Lang Jun?"

Li Congjia smiled and said, "What? Is this a long-term relationship?"

Yang Xin said angrily: "Lang Jun knows how to tease me!"

He doesn't like Tian Wuniang that much, but after getting along for a while, he doesn't dislike her. Tian Wuniang has a gentle personality and is well-educated. Except for the appearance that does not conform to Yang Xin's aesthetics, he is very satisfied with everything else.

If they don't hate each other, they will naturally be more considerate of each other. They have a tug-of-war with the Tian family because of their marriage. How could Tian Wuniang...not be affected?

Seeing that Yang Xin was depressed, Li Congjia couldn't make fun of her anymore and said, "It will definitely affect her, so it depends on what the Tian family will do. Of course, if you want to, it's not impossible to marry."

Yang Xin glanced at Li Congjia speechlessly, then turned his head and said nothing.

Li Congjia chuckled, and began to think about why the Tian family was so anxious to marry their daughter.

When he went back, Li Congjia didn't intend to tell the monks about this matter, after all, he was a vulgar thing, and even though the monk was born now, he didn't return to the vulgar, so it was useless to talk to them.

But Shi Xueting is Yang Xin's master, Li Congjia thinks about it and thinks he is still qualified to know.

As soon as Li Congjia walked outside the gate of the courtyard, he saw Shi Xueting coming out to welcome him, he was rather surprised: "Master is going out?"

Shi Xueting clasped his hands together and said: "No, are you here to welcome Mr. Lang?"

Li Congjia was very surprised: "How do you know I'm here?"

Shi Xueting closed his eyes and smiled: "I can tell."

Li Congjia suddenly felt guilty, he was so busy these days, but forgot to care about Shi Xueting's eyes, he couldn't help asking: "Did you hire a doctor before?"

Shi Xueting nodded: "Yang Xin once invited the most famous sage in the city."

"What did that sage say?" Li Congjia asked, walking into the yard with Shi Xueting.

Shi Xueting shook his head and said: "That holy hand can't find out why."

Li Congjia frowned and said: "It seems that the so-called master is just trying to gain fame."

Shi Xueting laughed: "How can Mr. Lang be so extreme?"

Li Congjia shrugged his shoulders and looked around. He seldom came to Shi Xueting's yard. Now, his first impression was that it was clean and tidy. There were many kinds of orchids planted in the yard, which looked very quiet and elegant.

"In a few days, I'll go ask Zhao Kuangyin. These high-ranking Zhou officials must have some doctors at home. See if I can invite you to see your eye disease."

Shi Xueting shook his head: "The poor monk is used to it, there is nothing wrong with it, so many things... can be let go."

Many things?lay down?Li Congjia thought about this sentence, and felt that there must be something hidden in it, but he was not sure if it was appropriate to ask, after all, it might involve other people's privacy.

But before he could figure it out, Shi Xueting had already changed the subject: "Lang Jun is here, is there something wrong?"

Li Congjia had no choice but to put aside the doubts just now and said, "It's about Yang Xin."

After he recounted the matter, he was quite puzzled: "Is the hexagram of that Taoist priest true or false?"

Shi Xueting said decisively: "It's probably fake."

Li Congjia was surprised: "Huh? How do you know?"

Shi Xueting said: "Officials and eunuchs will not wait until now to approve their children's horoscopes. It must be done shortly after birth. In the future, at most, they will come to see each other during the New Year or birthday. Now, at this time, neither end is enough. What's the point? What's more, getting married may be a joy, but it must not break the evil spirits. If there is a catastrophe, it may even involve others."

After hearing this, Li Congjia couldn't figure it out even more: "Then why are they doing this?"

Shi Xueting thought about it and said: "I'm afraid there will be some changes in the family. I want to marry my daughter first. Once she is married, she will be a member of her husband's family. If anything happens, she will not be affected."

Li Congjia was very horrified after hearing this: "No way? Wasn't it still fine before?"

Shi Xueting quickly said: "This is just my guess, it can't be taken as true."

Li Congjia originally wanted to inform Shi Xueting, but in the end he left full of doubts, mainly because what Shi Xueting said was indeed reasonable.

After returning, I just heard from the concierge that Tian Dalang came to visit.

Tian Dalang came here with embarrassment, this incident... he didn't even know how to explain it to Li Congjia. He took people to participate in the poetry meeting before, and it resulted in a plagiarism incident. Tian Dalang had never heard of such a thing as a woman urging her to marry her!

Li Congjia entertained Tian Dalang. After the two greeted Tian Dalang dryly, they didn't know what to say for a while.

Li Congjia thought of Shi Xueting's judgment before, and said directly: "What kind of trouble has your family encountered?"

Tian Dalang looked blank: "What?"

Li Congjia said: "Marrying a daughter in such a hurry is really not in line with the love the Tongsan couple have for Wu Niangzi, so I have this question."

Tian Dalang was helpless: "No, I don't know where Auntie found the Taoist priest. She insisted on saying that Wuniang was in danger, and Auntie was in a hurry, so..."

Could it be that Shi Xueting was thinking too much?

But when the other party said this, Li Congjia couldn't ask further questions, but said: "Everything else is easy to discuss, but the wedding is so close, it's really hard to obey."

Tian Dalang said hastily: "Of course we know Zhong Yin's difficulty, it's just... A Niang feels sorry for Wu Niang, after much deliberation, there is only one way to break the evil spirit."

Li Congjia asked, "What?"

Tian Dalang was a little shy, and said in a low voice: "Let Wu Niang go in first, and make up after the wedding."

Li Congjia:? ? ? ? ? ?

Brother, if you do this, even if you say it’s okay now, I won’t believe it.

Tian Dalang also felt a little embarrassed, this method almost threw the face of the woman's family on the ground and stomped on the ground, even if it is a saint who chooses a concubine, there is still a ceremony, they... hey.

Li Congjia said seriously: "Wu Niang will be the wife of Eleven Lang Mingmei in the future, how can you wrong her like this?"

Tian Dalang looked puzzled, but still said: "Aniang said that your house is full of fire, so it will definitely suppress the evil spirits, so..."

Li Congjia's face was dark when he heard that, of course Yanghuo was planted, except for a few little girls added recently, most of the men in the house before were monks, Yanghuo is not ordinary heavy.

Suppressing evil spirits... Li Congjia even wondered, did the Tian family know that he had hidden a nest of monks?

Li Congjia saw that Tian Dalang seemed to be determined, and he must have been ordered to die by the sentenced couple, so he could only say: "I'm afraid it would be very wrong to live in this house and be known by others. It just so happens that I intend to buy a manor outside the city recently. At that time, let Wu Niang live in, since she is not in the city, there will be fewer people to gossip."

After Tian Dalang heard about it, he hesitated for a while and said, "I'll ask Auntie to see if this works. Thank you Zhong Yin for this."

Li Congjia waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Wu Niang is the future wife of Eleven Lang. Since there is such a calamity, I will naturally find a way to help."

Tian Dalang left with gratitude, the more Li Congjia thought about it, the more wrong he became, but he couldn't figure out why, Tian Tongpan looked the same as before recently.

Since he couldn't think of it, Li Congjia simply stopped thinking about it and turned around to work on teaching materials.

To be honest, Li Congjia had never taught a child, and he didn't know what level that child was. However, considering his age, the child Zhao Kuangyin wanted to hand over to him should be Zhao Dezhao.

Four or five years old, three hundred thousand is the best reading material, but these three kinds of reading materials were all formed in the Song Dynasty, and now the founding emperor of the Song Dynasty is still conquering the world for others, so there is no shadow of this book.

Li Congjia thought about it, and decided to get the "San Zi Jing" out.

On the appointed day, Zhao Kuangyin sent someone to pick up Li Congjia.

And the one who came to receive Li Congjia was Zhao Kuangyin's original wife, Mrs. He from Kuaiji County.

He Shi is not very beautiful, but he is gentle and generous, but his complexion is not good, his face looks sick, and he speaks softly: "I have seen Master Li, this is my Erlang Dezhao, Erlang, haven't you met Master? "

Zhao Dezhao is still a very fair young lady with three heads and body, Zhao Kuangyin can be vaguely seen in his face, at this time he is saluting Li Congjia, and said in a childlike voice, "Master is good."

When Li Congjia saw Zhao Dezhao, his heart was more than half relieved, because this child didn't seem particularly bearish.

He asked Mrs. He about Mrs. Zhao Xiaozheng's learning progress, and knew that Mrs. He was teaching him before, and after learning a hundred or so characters, he felt a sense of proportion.

After He finished his explanation, he didn't say anything more, and was helped by the maid to leave the school.

Li Congjia looked at her slightly staggering appearance, and sighed slightly. According to historical records, He Shi died young at the age of 29. According to calculations, it is only two years away from now.

After expressing his emotions, Li Congjia said softly to Zhao Dezhao, "Come, learn the Three Character Classic from Master."

Zhao Dezhao is ignorant and doesn't know what the "Three Character Classic" is. Li Congjia can learn what he teaches, which is really very worry-free, and he won't be like ordinary children, who will have a hundred thousand why questions at any time.

Even Li Congjia, who doesn't like children very much, is full of love for Zhao Dezhao.

Sure enough, there are only bear parents in this world, but no bear children.

Zhao Dezhao's cooperation made Li Congjia's teaching progress very fast.

This enlightenment book has a total of more than 1000 words. At first, Li Congjia thought that this book could last for a long time. Now it seems that Zhao Dezhao has a high IQ and studies very hard. It can’t be said that "Hundred Surnames" and "Thousand Characters" have both. Just get it out.

Li Congjia felt a little tired, what about being an undercover agent?How did you start dedicating yourself to the cause of early childhood education?

When Li Congjia was struggling, Zhao Kuangyin, who disappeared for three days in a row, finally found time to care about his son's homework.

Zhao Kuangyin was not Zhao Dezhao, so he could see the benefits of "San Zi Jing" at a glance, and couldn't help being very surprised: "Who wrote this book?"

Li Congjia had no choice but to say: "I have nothing to do, I wrote it to teach my children."

Zhao Kuangyin laughed loudly: "Ah Yu is indeed a great talent! This book is wonderful, come to think of it..."

Zhao Kuangyin stopped talking suddenly in the middle of speaking, Li Congjia was too busy making complaints, he changed his name again, and didn't notice this at all.

Zhao Kuangyin originally wanted to say that Li Congjia's level might not be bad even if he went to teach Donggong, but he was worried that Li Congjia had a big heart, what if he really went to Daliang?So he simply swallowed it without saying a word. It is hard to find such a qualified teacher, so he decided to hide it and not give it to anyone!

Zhao Kuangyin put down the book and continued: "Handing Erlang to A Yu is indeed the most correct decision. You don't have to worry about anything, just let go and teach."

Zhao Kuangyin dared to say that because he read something in that book. From the beginning, he could see that Li Congjia had a bright personality, and in the words of later generations, he had three views.

There is nothing to worry about such a person teaching his son!

Li Congjia hastened to say a few words modestly: "As long as you don't feel that I'm misleading my disciples, that's fine."

Zhao Kuangyin suddenly asked again: "A Yu is a genius in poetry, I wonder if he would like to teach others how to write poetry?"

Li Congjia was stunned for a moment: "Erlang is still young now, not yet ready to learn poetry."

Zhao Kuangyin waved his hand and said, "It's not him, it's my younger brother."

Zhao Kuangyin's younger brother?Those are not fuel-efficient lamps!

When Li Congjia heard this, he felt withdrawn. After all, Zhao Guangyi was two years younger than him, and he definitely didn't need him to teach him. Then only Zhao Tingmei was left, and Zhao Tingmei was about nine years old this year, so it was time for him to learn to write poetry. .

Li Congjia directly refused: "The younger generation has limited talents, and has never taught others before. I have worked hard to teach Erlang, and I am afraid it will be difficult to teach others."

Although Zhao Kuangyin regretted it, he didn't force it. After all, how can a younger brother be compared with a son?

After Zhao Kuangyin looked at Zhao Dezhao's writing, he praised his son a few words, and then asked, "I heard that Eleven Lang is going to marry the young lady of the Tian family?"

Li Congjia was a little surprised: "It's already decided, but we have to wait for Eleven Lang to give his filial piety to get married."

Zhao Kuangyin was a little surprised: "Huh? I heard that they will get married years ago."

Li Congjia frowned: "Dare to ask the envoy, who did you listen to?"

Zhao Kuangyin shook his head: "I don't really remember, I just mentioned it in casual conversation. It seems that many people know it. Why, you don't know?"

Li Congjia gritted his teeth: "The Tian family did make this request before, saying that they wanted to help Miss Tian Wu get rid of her evil spirits, but I never agreed. After all, Eleventh Lang still has to observe filial piety, and it is not proper to marry during filial piety!"

Li Congjia didn't need to think about it, it must be the Tian family's rumors, what is this going to do?Force them to marry?

If his bad temper comes up, he will end the engagement at worst. Anyway, now he is the teacher of the Zhao family, and he has registered with Shi Xingyi, and he is no longer the unfounded outsider. Besides, he still has a reason for this matter, so what are you afraid of?

Zhao Kuangyin smiled inexplicably: "That's very good, if you can withdraw, then this marriage will be withdrawn."

Li Congjia was startled: "Does Shijun mean that the Tian family wants to..."

Zhao Kuangyin raised his hand and said, "If it wasn't for you, I would never have opened my mouth. I don't know the specific situation. How to do it yourself."

After Li Congjia heard about it, he kept his eyes open and asked again: "The younger generation has a merciless request. I wonder if the envoy knows who are the masters of the apricot forest in Jiangning's mansion?"

Zhao Kuangyin asked: "What? Are you sick?"

Li Congjia shook his head: "It's not me, it's a member of my family who suddenly suffered from an eye disease, and asked the doctor for a long time, but no one can tell why."

Zhao Kuangyin was very surprised: "Ah Yu cares so much about everyone, it's really rare."

Li Congjia smiled wryly: "My servant can be regarded as sharing weal and woe with me. He was separated a few days ago, and later he found a place for me after a lot of hard work. How can I abandon him?"

Zhao Kuangyin praised: "So, he is a loyal servant. I do know that a doctor in a colleague's family has good medical skills. I will go and ask you about it tomorrow."

Li Congjia immediately smiled: "Thank you, envoy!"

Seeing that he was happy, Zhao Kuangyin couldn't help but say another sentence: "If you break it, you break it. Don't be soft-hearted."

Although he didn't specify what it was, Li Congjia knew that what he was talking about should be about the Tian family's affairs. He was a little entangled, and the Tian family had helped him a lot. He really didn't want to cut off with the Tian family. .

Li Congjia was struggling to get home from get out of class, but happened to meet Tian Dalang who came to visit again. Li Congjia said very angrily: "Didn't I say it before, let's put aside the matter of getting married years ago, why is your house full of trouble?"

Tian Dalang blushed, gritted his teeth and said, "To be honest, my father has committed some crimes recently. I'm afraid he might be dismissed if something goes wrong. That's why he wanted to marry Wu Niang first."

Li Congjia was quite surprised: "Just dismissed? Although it is a pity, there is no need to be so impatient, right?"

Tian Dalang smiled wryly: "Zhong Yin also knows that my father and mother love Wu Niang the most, and Wu Niang's wedding must be beautiful and beautiful. If Wu Niang gets married now, she can wear the crown dress of the same level as A Niang, and hold a banquet It is also different from Baishen, so..."

Li Congjia was quite speechless, he just said: "Presumably your family is also worried that we will divorce in the future?"

Tian Dalang didn't say anything, that's really what he meant. Now everyone can see that Li Congjia hugged Zhao Kuangyin's thigh. He is talented and has an unlimited future. His family is only left with himself and his cousin. He will support him no matter what in the future. cousin's.

When they got engaged, it was Tian Wuniang who got married, but if you look at it later, there may be many variables in this marriage.

Li Congjia said helplessly: "Don't worry, your family, Shishilang and I are not dishonest people. As for the wedding scene, Wu Niangzi will definitely be able to get married in the future, and the husband's family will never treat her badly."

Tian Dalang left with a sigh, and Li Congjia shook his head helplessly. Even if the Tian family said it was useless, it was impossible for him to agree to get married right away.

Li Congjia originally thought that even if the Tian family collapsed, it would take some time. He could play side-by-side with Zhao Kuangyin to see if he could be saved. This was because Tian Dalang was really good to him.

In the end, before he could figure it out, something happened to the Tian family!
