Dress to be a celebrity

After leaving the restaurant, Song Shi looked around and saw the fortune-telling booth with the "iron mouth directly broken" curtain from a distance, but he didn't dare to go there again, for fear that King Qi would send someone to follow him.

This is really hard to guard against, if King Qi knows that he is considered an heir, wouldn't it be true that he secretly ran out to ask for a son?He had a date with a man, and even went to the temple to tell fortunes and ask for a child. People should not think that he was a woman disguised as a man...

No, you may also suspect that Huan Ling is a woman. After all, women sacrifice their careers for love these days, and men are scumbags.

In any case, he would rather be less talked about, so he jumped on the horse, took out the anti-reconnaissance and anti-tracking technology he had practiced in grassroots work for many years, and turned around to throw off the eunuchs who might follow him. Arrived at Yuxu Temple in the northwest.

There is no fortune-telling in monk temples, but Taoist priests are in the business of fortune-telling.Song Shi didn't need to open his mouth when he came to the temple, he took out the silver and put it in the merit box at the door, and the little Taoist priest who greeted the guests asked with a wink: "Do you want to be a Buddhist temple or do you want to ask fortune-telling?"

Fortune-telling in this concept is just like buying health care products from internationally renowned health care product manufacturers. It doesn’t matter whether it works or not. When you see the brand, the elderly at home can rest assured.Song Shi was no longer picky about fortune-telling on the street, and replied with a smile: "I just want to calculate when I will get a child, but I don't know which fairy master can calculate it accurately?"

The little Taoist gave him a slap in the face, then led him to a alchemy room next to the Sanqing Hall, called his master, and asked a middle-aged Taoist in the room to tell his fortune for him.

The Taoist claimed to be Quan Yangzi, who could solve lottery, count horoscopes, push fate, count Liuren, and solve plum blossoms. Please do the same calculation in Song Dynasty.Song Shi felt dizzy after hearing his introduction, so he handed over the date of birth and asked him to calculate when he would have a child.

Quan Yangzi counted on the knuckles of those four fingers with his left thumb, with a solemn expression, and his beard trembled slightly. After counting, his brows were already knit into a ball, and he looked at Song Shi sympathetically: "Xiao Dao has a saying, the benefactor Don't be surprised, the benefactor is hit... but there is no chance of heirs."

...Wait, can this be calculated?

Is this really a calculation or is it just to make him spend money to crack it?

Song Shi didn't understand what he meant by the Palace of Fate or the Four Pillars, so he asked the Taoist straightforwardly: "You really figured out that I was destined to have no children? Is there any way to break it? It doesn't matter how much money you spend!"

The Taoist shook his head: "Xiaodao is not the fortune teller who intentionally intimidates people in order to defraud people of money. It is true that there is no fate for children in the life of the benefactor, but there will be gains for every loss. The benefactor's wife palace is good, and there is a good wife to preside over it." Feedback, I have the help of this virtuous wife, and I also have the appearance of being in the examination room..."

Song Shi listened more and more attentively, and his materialistic heart was almost shaken by him, thinking that the Taoist priest was a fortune teller written in the novel, and even a little worried that he would figure out that he was a time traveler.

His hand grasped tighter and tighter on the purse, and the Taoist priest looked down, his expression becoming more misty, and he smiled slightly: "How can everything be complete in life? The fate of the benefactor has already accounted for eighty percent of the benefits in the world. The sons and heirs are just forcing, and they need to do a few more rituals to send the son off to the empress."

Oh.

no need.

In Song Shi's eyes, the old god became a seller of health care products again. He took out a few pieces of broken silver from his wallet and put them on the table. adopt children.

Being destined to be childless means, isn't it better to raise a daughter?

The Taoist priest didn't expect him to give up his heir so quickly, and would rather adopt him than do the ritual, he was a little speechless for a while.However, the rich man was unwilling to spend a lot of money, and he was willing to spend a small amount of money, which was better than not spending any money, so he looked at his horoscope for a while and said: "If you adopt an heir, there is no hindrance, but the young master is now Wenchang Yunji In the prime of life, if the luck of your offspring was poor, you might not be able to be your luck, and your studies would be poor, but your daughter's family is fine..."

Song Shi nodded again and again, and said with satisfaction: "That's good, I also think that my daughter is better, my daughter is more at ease staying at home than getting married!"

In one breath, he blocked the way for the Taoist priest to ask the child to come together, and asked with a smile: "The Taoist priest can figure out when I should adopt the child?"

Taoist Priest Quan Yangzi nodded slightly, took a post, and wrote the word "Xinyou" on it: "When the Ganzhi meets Xinyou, it can be adopted as a ceremony, and the benefactor can decide at his own discretion."

Xinyou can be matched with the year, month, day and time.Daoist, does this mean that you can adopt whenever you want?

Song Shi went back with the note, went home to pay the task first, and told his parents, brother and sister-in-law about the Taoist priest's suggestion that he adopt his niece, and showed them the note with the word "Xin You".His eldest brother and sister-in-law have settled down since then, but the second brother and second sister-in-law have been worried about the note for a long time, and feel that adoption is a good thing, and they are reluctant to call their daughters uncle and aunt from now on.

But if the adoptive father doesn't even call Song Shi, then what kind of father-daughter relationship is there?

The two of them were entangled, but Song Shi boasted to his parents and wife that the Taoist leader was accurate: Isn't he the one who deserves a good wife?Having been tutored by a good wife for these years, I won three yuan and became a Hanlin editor. Now I can live a small life, and my family is beautiful...

Where is the good wife from?Which family brought out a daughter-in-law taller than their son?

His father kept a snort stuck in his throat, and reluctantly said: "Since the Taoist leader is right, let's leave it at that for the adoption. How old is your niece and daughter, and we can talk about it when you can leave the arms of your parents!"

Anyway, there is only the word "Xinyou", can you choose the year of Xinyou, the month of Xinyou, the day of Xinyou, or the time of Xinyou?His son has no hair on his mouth and is not reliable in his work. He has to do the math himself to see if this daughter-in-law is really as good as Taoist Master Yuxu said!

He stuffed the note, counting that Song Shi had passed the test, and forced him to stay at home for one night before letting him go back.Song Shi returned to Huan's house from get off work from the Imperial Academy the next day, but received warmth from King Qi.

The steward who received the goods for him had put the winter ash and lime into the warehouse, and showed him a bowl of each.While adding water to the bowl as he said, he said: "Your Excellency told me earlier that it was incense ash from Wang's incense sandalwood shop and lime from Xiyao Factory, but those two didn't come to deliver them, but a few came. The servant said it was Zhang Ergong's family, and sent two large carts of ashes."

Song Shi looked down at the plant ash and lime, and saw that the winter ash didn't boil after adding water, obviously no lime was added; the lime powder was finely ground, and it bubbled up after adding water. The quality was good, so he nodded with satisfaction: "Who cares?" Whose family sent him, these two things are good enough. I know that young master, I met yesterday when I went to the temple..."

Anyway, he didn't say that he was a prince at the time, and even made up a name of Zhang Er. Even the Wang family of his grandfather, Duke Cheng, couldn't be contacted. Extravagant, free and unrestrained, but Zhang Er's name doesn't look like the name of an official family, he should be a young chivalrous man."

Although there are not as many contemporary knights as described in Water Margin, and not many of them are famous for their martial arts, the hearts of the people, even literati and officials, are not dead yearning for chivalry, and they have erected a new concept for the word "chivalry"—— Because more and more literati yearn for the spirit of chivalry, it is no longer necessary to be a chivalrous man with strong martial arts, as long as he can ride and shoot a little, can lift a sword and dance for a while, and is willing to donate money to be a chivalrous man.

For example, in another historical line, Xu Zhenqing, one of the four talents in Wuzhong, once wrote an article to Tang Bohu, saying "Tang Bohu, a true knight. I have been friends with Er Qingyun for ten years, and I have nothing to cherish."Is it really because of Tang Bohu's martial arts skills?

The spirit of being a hero is the most important.

Guan Guan understood the word "Xia" when he heard the word "Xia": "It turns out that he is a young chivalrous man. It is strange that he is so willing to spend money. The two trucks he sent were inspected, and they are better than the ones our family used before..."

As he spoke, he suddenly remembered that the man in front of him was surnamed Song, so he couldn't be counted as his family, so he quickly shut up and took a peek at Song Shi.Seeing that he didn't seem to hear what he said clearly, Fang felt relieved and said cautiously: "This thing is correct, so I feel at ease. But the hero's tong'er didn't leave any mark, and I don't know how to thank him." , please show Master Song."

Song Shi had potassium carbonate and calcium hydroxide in his hands, but he still remembered a king of Qi who casually said: "Let's talk about it later, these knights don't expect to repay their kindness. Someday you go to the shop where I ordered ashes Just ask for the deposit back."

Since Zhang Daxia does not leave his name behind for his good deeds, we will grant him permission, and he will be at ease only by making potassium permanganate.

Of course, potassium permanganate is not only a good medicine for hemorrhoids, but also a soil disinfectant, which is better than lime in disinfection and does not affect the soil pH; it can kill bacteria and fungi, prevent and control rice, cabbage and other vegetable diseases; it can also disinfect Chicken coops and pigpens can reduce the spread of epidemics; they can also kill aquatic algae and the like...

When he was making homemade pesticides, he had been coveting potassium permanganate for a long time, but he never had the chance to do it. Now he can finally show his skills!

Soak the plant ash first!The soaked plant ash water is filtered out of impurities with a dense straw curtain, and then boiled dry in a large pot.The crystals scraped from the bottom of the pot are then soaked in water, and the impurities are filtered out with a curtain, and then boiled...

In the preliminary work, he will take the lead as a leader and ask the Huan family to allocate two family members to set up a big pot to cook.After filtering for six or seven times, the alkali noodles are boiled into snow-white alkali cakes, and then he will personally prepare the potassium hydroxide solution.

When Huan Ling returned home at night, he saw thick smoke billowing from the house, but someone had set up a firewood stove in a side courtyard to boil water, and the whole courtyard was filled with steam, and it was a bit of a spring day in October.Guided by the half-blank fog column, he walked to the gate of the courtyard, looked in through the moon gate, and saw that it was not the cook who was guarding the cauldron looking at the water, but Song Shi.

The second Sanyuanji talented scholar in this dynasty is Song Hanlin who is Jane in the heart of the emperor.

Burn a cauldron in his house.

The night was too dark, and the firelight reflected on the faces of people, separated by water mist, which made it difficult to see clearly.Huan Ling was afraid that he was mistaken, so he unconsciously rubbed his eyes, blinked away his tears, and then looked inside——

Looking at it again, it was still Song Shi wearing a dark blue narrow-sleeved cloth shirt, the sleeves of both hands were rolled up to the elbows of the arms, and a long cloth head that reached to the chest and fell to the knees was put on in front of the body, which was tied around the body with a thin thread somehow, and the belt A group of family members who also covered their faces burned the pot.A column of white mist rose from the pot, as if boiling water, but the water contained some strange smells.

He couldn't help but walked closer and called out, "Junior Brother Song?"

In front of outsiders, he still wanted to give Zu Song Shi face and refused to call him by his nickname easily.

Song Shi was in the midst of directing people to boil alkali in full swing, when he heard Huan Ling calling him, he suddenly raised his head, and saw his hazy, somewhat bewildered face through the mist.

Since he grew up, he has rarely seen such a cute look.

Song Shi couldn't help smiling, wiped his hands on the apron, strode up to him, and asked with a smile: "Brother, why don't you go back and change your clothes first, and come here to watch us boil alkali?"

Huan Ling didn't see that the pot of boiling white water was alkali, but only saw that the cloth on his body was hung behind his neck with two thin ribbons, and the two silk ribbons were tied around his waist, which were tied extremely tightly. , and the hem of the clothes is so slight that it makes him "shin with the waist", which makes people want to measure it with their hands.

He restrained his gaze away, looked at the cauldron of alkaline water and asked, "Now we're starting to process the medicinal materials? Why do you have to boil the alkaline by yourself? Are the ones bought in the market useless?"

Song Shi waved his hand: "Don't worry about making it yourself, we will keep a can in the kitchen when we cook it later. This kind of alkali makes noodles delicious and strong, but it won't rise."

Seeing that Huan Ling seemed to be waiting for him, he refused to go back to the room by himself, so he had to temporarily put aside the plan of boiling the alkali, and ordered everyone around the pot to stir it from time to time. , so as not to fall into the dust.

Those people responded in unison, Song Shi nodded, and naturally stretched out his hand towards Huan Ling, leading him to walk outside.After returning to the house, Huan Ling raised his wrist, held his hand with both hands and smiled, "Shi Guan'er is always so open-minded, not afraid of outsiders' comments."

Hey, how can you be so reluctant to be considerate of a good wife who has won the seal of Yuxuguan Gaodao to help Fuwangfu.
