The Honest Man of the Red Chamber

Xu Mingen came to the capital in a hurry, and he knew that there is no unparalleled road, and Jia Zheng is going against the law and running against him. How could it be possible that no one in the world will realize his hypocritical ambition.

"You are Master Xu, please!"

After entering the city gate, someone came to meet him.

Shaking the loess dust on his robe, Xu Mingen coughed lightly, resisting the desire to lick his dry itchy lips, suppressing his uneasiness, and followed the man calmly.

In an unsurprising small tea house, Xu Mingen didn't even see anyone, drank a cup of light tea across the wooden screen, and talked about everything, writing a lot, telling himself that what he said was "stealth and bravery, and the wind is bright" He really didn't dare to join forces with Shanxi's lawsuit, so he was used by Jia Zheng's official tools for private use, and he was dismissed on fabricated charges.

Seeing that what he said was clear and honest, that person believed it, "Then you can write the book, and I will pass it on to the emperor for you, and let the emperor come to Longyi to decide."

"Yes, thank you, my lord, for making the decision. I don't know who my lord is..." Xu Mingen wanted to see who this person was. Although the person who paid him the wine bills to settle the debt was vague, but he was not confused even though he was drunk To the point where he didn't remember anything, he kept pestering him for a long time and knew that he was under a certain prince, so he was willing to come from Shanxi, only because he also understood that Jia Zheng had a strong background, even his Yue Shan couldn't afford to offend him. Only a real prince and marquis can kill Jia Zheng and have a chance of recovery.

"Oh, you don't have to know!"

That person will naturally not tell who he is, who knows what will happen, the prince's name cannot be tainted in the slightest.

"My minister, Xu Mingen, has endured untold hardships, weeping and tearfully reporting to the Holy Majesty. I was originally a magistrate in Shanxi, but because Jia Zheng, the Chief Secretary who bears the emperor's cause, took advantage of the Holy Majesty's will to act prestige and perverted the government. The name of obscene skills insults Shanxi's culture, and taxes are collected from prostitutes... Not only that, but also narrow-minded, and those who do not obey his orders will definitely retaliate..."

"Mother, mother, mother, listen to me quickly."

Meiyu looked at her mother who was still sitting behind the desk writing something, she finally couldn't bear it after waiting for a long time, her mother was too busy, she didn't even see the face she deliberately slapped her, it caused her to hold it for so long on purpose, I didn't even tell my brother, but I wanted to tell my mother first.

Wang Guizhi didn't even raise her head, "Well, Meiyu, please tell me, mother is listening." What she was copying was the business and tax laws of the court and China, and it couldn't be said to be a copy, but to translate it according to her understanding. After the first draft was probably all right, she had to ask Zhu Er to check if there were any mistakes.

In the past, she also knew that agriculture, industry and commerce had to pay taxes, but what kind of tax law was it, what she knew was not clear.In Wang Guizhi's view, Jia Zheng, as an important member of one party, must develop the local economy (to make up for the deficit), in addition to his own work at Shanxi College (reputation), infrastructure construction (search land and land, check population, encourage land reclamation, deep plowing) elite species), Shanxi merchants are already well-developed, and they dare to claim the top in the country. How can they let their wealth play out the strength they should have?

Baoyu took Meiyu's hand and said, "Little sister, be good, brother will play with you, and mother is busy."

Meiyu pursed her lips, "But I think this matter should be a bit important." She nodded, ran behind Wang Guizhi and grabbed her sleeve and said, "Mother, listen to me."

"Okay, listen to my Meiyu." Wang Guizhi put down his pen, picked up his little daughter and coaxed him, "What's the matter, my dear."

Meiyu giggled, "Mom, Mo Tian came to me today and said that his grandma said that someone is going to deal with us? What does it mean to deal with us? Are you inviting us to a banquet?"

"...Meiyu? What are you talking about? Deal with it? Mo Tian is..." Wang Guizhi was stunned for a moment. The surname was Mo, the Mo family that Yuan Chun immediately went back to?

"It's the guy who made me scratch my face!" Meiyu hugged her mother's neck, "That's what he said."

Wang Guizhi thought for a while, kissed Meiyu and Baoyu, asked the nanny to lead them to play with the boys, called Caiyun and asked, "Is there any enrollment list for the primary school?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"See if there is Mo Tian."

Caiyun went to find the list and rummaged through it, but couldn't find it even after looking twice, "Madam, there is no such name."

"Is there anyone with the surname Mo?"

Caiyun still shook her head, "No."

Hiss, that's a little weird.

Wang Guizhi tapped his fingers on some cases and thought, Mo Tian is only five or six years old. Since he failed to report to the primary school, it would not be difficult for him to get involved at a young age. After all, he is a child, so he can find Meiyu and say that. If so, it would be weird.

Deal with.

She has been here for so long, except for the servants of the Jia family who wanted to subdue Jia's family at the beginning, she didn't seem to be targeting anyone in particular.Who do you want to meet her?

Did she accidentally touch someone else's cake at some point?Unlike the Zhenwei Restaurant, she is now in Shanxi, so it is the Bowei Restaurant?But she is being protected by the most important official in Shanxi. Even if they want to deal with it, it will not be easy, right?

Wang Guizhi, who had never been involved in this kind of thing, was immediately puzzled, and finally slapped his thigh, hey, there is too little information to analyze, so I went to the Mo family to ask for clarification.She also made a lot of use of the topic that day, and now the matter is over, "Take my name sticker to invite the old lady of the Mo family for a while."

"Yes."

It is really unlucky to say that the people sent to trouble the Mo family are really unlucky. I thought it was just an old woman and a yellow-mouthed child. Wouldn't it be easy to scare them?

It's a pity that the houses of the Mohist family look simple, but they are actually full of mystery. For nearly a thousand years, the Mohist men who have not been employed by the Mohist family, except for practicing martial arts and helping their friends, spend almost all their remaining energy on organ skills.

I wanted to find a few hooligans, but no one dared to pick them up. In the end, I found some hungry people from other places, but they were well fed and sent out. Each of them had a bunch of travel expenses, so that they could go home separately.

The local officials didn't dare to disturb them. One of them was bitten off by a vicious dog, and the other was hung in the sun for two nights and one day.

In the end, they paid a lot of money and were kicked out, "Righteousness is the benefit of the Mo family."

Hey, I didn't expect this orphan and widow to become such a tough nut to crack.

"My lord, what should we do? They rarely go out of the house on weekdays. They can't be lured or threatened. The little grandson didn't go to Jia's primary school anymore. Even if they poisoned them, he can't be implicated. .”

"Forget it, killing people for no reason...they are old and young, and they really want to kill them all...we hide for a while, pretending to be doing business. Anyway, they found a magistrate to participate in Jiazheng Well, these days, we have heard many gentry and wealthy households have serious opinions on Jia Zheng in the restaurants in the market. They are not allowed to increase the rent to the tenants, this is not forcing these people to cut their flesh, I think he will never grow up if he does this! The people are full of complaints!"

"That's what you said. My lord, why don't we go and see the top ten famous prostitutes in Shanxi?"

"You bastard, you're starting to feel restless again. Anyway, since you've come to Shanxi, you don't need to look at the coal all over the mountains and plains. You have to taste the vinegar. You have to take a look at the famous prostitutes, so you can learn a lot."

The old lady of the Mo family saw that Mrs. Chief Secretary had posted a post to invite her, she nodded, and said to Zhou Rui's family, "I'm free right now, I don't know if Madam has time to see me?"

Zhou Rui's family said with a smile, "Look at what you said, our wife has set up a banquet and is waiting for you." She has always been sweet and smooth, and she can be regarded as the most attractive person in the companion room in interpersonal communication.

"Let's go then."

Wang Guizhi also became curious about the Mohist school. Whether it was in Xun Qin Ji or the Great Qin Dynasty, the descriptions of Mohist giants all had a certain degree of admiration. What made her even more concerned was whether the Mohist's mechanism skills were really so magical?

If it is true, then technology is the primary productive force!If she can make a steam engine and a textile machine, what about the industrial overlord Britain?

After seeing the old lady of the Mohist family, Wang Guizhi felt that his brain had been expanded. It was obvious that she was just an old man similar to Jia's mother.

"The last time the children fought with your grandson, I was distressed and angry, so I couldn't meet the old lady. Please don't be offended by the old lady."

The old lady of the Mohist family smiled slightly, "All parents in the world have a heart of pity for their children, so why should there be such a gift of blame?"

The two of you came and I exchanged a few polite words. Wang Guizhi felt that her cheeks were going to be stiff. It was really not her style to insist on words like this, so she didn't like to socialize with officials' wives, and she didn't attend their banquets. They are both Li Wan and Yuan Chun.

After facing each other for a while, Wang Guizhi waved his hand and said directly, "Old lady, just tell me, you sent your little grandson to warn, who is going to deal with me, or my master?"

"Madam is happy, I don't know."

The old lady of the Mo family relaxed her waist, took a bite of the dim sum from the table, it was crispy and rich, it melted in the mouth, it was so delicious.Alas, no wonder my grandson has been unhappy every meal since he returned to primary school. It turns out that Mrs. Chief Secretary really has her own uniqueness in preparing meals.

……

The words were so direct and calm that Wang Guizhi couldn't help asking, "I really don't know? Then why does the old lady say that someone is going to deal with us?"

"My Mo family died of illness and old age except for dying on the way to help others. I have no enemies. Even if someone who helped others came to find some enemies. Seeing that we are left with an old and a young, we will not seek revenge from us. Suddenly someone came to the door to threaten and lure, although he never promised not to reveal other words, but as long as he thinks about the recent changes, he will know." The old lady of the Mo family ate snacks and drank tea, and did not stutter.

Wang Guizhi nodded, but she still felt strange, "Why are you looking for you? You..." She hesitated how to position the Mo family, "It's not that the officials are not agricultural or commercial at this time, but I just let you make a fuss. Is it worth spending some money at most? Are you trying to break my fortune?"

"The old man doesn't know either." The old lady of the Mo family shook her head, pursed her lips, wiped off the crumbs with a handkerchief, and pushed the empty small plate back to its original place.It's a pity that the tuition fee for primary school is too expensive, 500 taels a day, she can't afford it, so she can only let her grandson continue to endure this "suffering of lovesickness".

Seeing that the old lady liked the shortbread, Wang Guizhi asked someone to bring some more, "If the old lady likes it, I'll ask the girl to make some for you to take home later."

"Thank you, and please wrap more. Both the old man and the grandson like it very much."

The old lady of the Mo family thanked her slightly.

Seeing her like this, Wang Guizhi smiled lightly, thinking she was very interesting, "Madam, I don't know why your grandson must take someone to primary school?" The temperament I felt from her did not seem like someone who would act recklessly Ah, it wouldn't be very rude to teach children.

The old lady of the Mo family said truthfully, "He told the neighbors truthfully about all kinds of gadgets and food in the kindergarten. Some people didn't believe it, so he said that he would bring someone in to have a look, to show that he had never lied. Afterwards, everyone believed it. I envy him, the two people he took with him that day because their parents went to Bashu to do business, and there has been no news for three years, the family is struggling, and it is their birthday, so Tian'er wants to take them to primary school for snacks." She said calmly. , "I have already punished him, how can I be generous to others. But he is still young, and it is my elders' fault for not thinking carefully. If Madam wants to blame, blame the old man for not teaching well."

Wang Guizhi smiled and waved his hands and said, "How could it be? Children are at fault for fighting, just let it go." Haha, this kid is quite interesting.

"The little boy is Luo who likes elementary school?"

"I like it." The old lady of the Mo family nodded. Although many things have been imitated, how can it be interesting to play alone with children of the same age.

"Then why didn't you sign up at the primary school? You were once a member of the primary school, so you can be entered first." Wang Guizhi couldn't help saying.

The old lady of the Mo family said with a slight face, "No money."

"……what?"

"No money, 500 taels a day, too expensive!"

At this moment, the old lady of the Mohist family really "seeed" the four words of unscrupulous businessman in her eyes.

The author has something to say: Am I overdoing it... Sometimes I really can't control myself!

Say it to yourself ten thousand times again, what I wrote is Red Chamber Tongren Red Chamber Tongren Red Chamber Tongren...
