The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 1980 Guidance and guidance

When the Ge family saw this scene, their hearts went cold, and Ge Xiaomao looked even more embarrassed. Sheng's mother was already strong, but today she invited a government official from the same government to preside over the marriage. From now on, Sheng's mother will definitely continue to interfere in their married life. Life for the Ge family was even more difficult.

Ying Tongzhi glanced at Lu Lin and others and recognized the identities of Lu Lin, Liang Yuan and other Fang Yun classmates at a glance. In Jiangzhou, these people were remembered by officials from all over the country. If they were provoked, it would be difficult to end them.

Especially the people in Dayuan Mansion jokingly called the booklet recording Fang Yun's relatives and friends a protective talisman, which no one could afford to offend.

Later, Ying Tongzhi saw Ge Xiaomao's groom's official attire and stood with classmate Fang Yun, and immediately guessed it.

Ying Tongzhi laughed and said: "Brother Xie asked me to officiate at weddings today. Ying was busy with business and could not come, but brother Xie repeatedly said that the groom was a talented man, so he had no choice but to come. Ying does not often officiate at weddings, if there is any impropriety, , I hope you can forgive me.”

The shrewd people on both sides immediately guessed the meaning of Ying Tongzhi's words. Ying Tongzhi did not come here to suppress the Ge family, but because of the feelings of the Jie family, he had to come, and he did not even know the specific inside story. Next, Ying Tongzhihui will only act as a normal officiant and will not help each other. If something happens, it will not be what he wants to see. I hope Fang Yun will not misunderstand.

At the same time, he also tried to smooth things over, saying that the Jie family was actually optimistic about Ge Xiaomao. If Ge Xiaomao became successful in the future, don't forget to understand the Jie family.

Lu Lin looked at Liang Yuan. Liang Yuan cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Farewell to Dayuan Mansion. We haven't seen each other for a year. We should know that you are well. We are here to fulfill our friendship as classmates. We will meet each other and know that we are all well." Feel honored.”

Liang Yuan is used to wind and waves, neither humble nor arrogant.

Ying Tongzhi approached with a smile and said, "Brother Liang has become more and more quiet after not seeing each other for many days. I would like to know what the Fang family is planning to do next, so that I can let the people in the clan drink some soup."

"Ying Tongzhi is joking. The Ying family is a famous family in Jiangzhou. Naturally, they are well versed in business. I just have better luck. I can't compare with the several shopkeepers of the Ying family."

Ge Xiaomao watched Liang Yuan chatting and laughing with Ying Tongzhi, and sighed in his heart. His classmates back then were all extraordinary now. Liang Yuan's family background was just better back then, but if he followed Fang Yun, not to mention this Tongzhi, even if Even if you meet the state pastor of a state, you can talk eloquently.

Ge Xiaomao regretted a little. Maybe he should have followed Liang Yuan's example and gave up his studies earlier to help Fang Yun.

Later, Ying Tongzhi introduced the head of the family and Xie Zhiwen to everyone present. When introducing Xie Zhiwen, he emphasized that he was Sun Guannian's disciple.

Hearing Sun Guannian's name, the expressions of Lu Lin, Fang Zhongyong, Liang Yuan and others changed slightly, and they looked at Ge Xiaomao with helpless and sympathetic eyes.

It is said that there are seventh-rank officials in front of the prime minister. Even if Liang Yuan is the shopkeeper of the Fang family, he is at most equivalent to a sixth-rank official. Sun Guannian is a fourth-rank official. His friendship with Fang Yun is not as good as these classmates, but his relationship with Fang Yun is Deeper actually. The key point is that Sun Guannian is expected to have a bachelor's degree, and he has a good relationship with Cai He. He also helped Fang Yun back then. Together, these are enough to put Fang Yun's old classmates to shame.

Shengyuan Continent is, after all, a world that depends on literary positions.

Ge Xiaomao had known about this for a long time, but his eyes were gloomy, knowing that his family would eventually be overwhelmed by the Sheng family.

Sheng's mother observed the situation and realized that the situation was decided. She smiled and said, "You should know that my new son-in-law has no talent and a bad temper. I am not afraid of anything else. I am afraid that my daughter will be wronged if she marries into his family. Now that you are here, I don’t think he will dare to do anything in the future.”

A look of helplessness flashed across Ying Tongzhi's face, and he smiled and said, "I think the bridegroom has a restrained temperament, and he will never do anything to harm his wife and children in the future. Madam Sheng, just rest assured..."

Sheng's mother immediately said loudly: "Ge Xiaomao, did you hear that? From now on, be polite to our Sheng family and don't show off your stubborn temper!"

Not only Ge Xiaomao's classmates showed angry expressions, but also the few scholars who had not known Ge Xiaomao before also showed displeasure. Ge Xiaomao's temper could be seen at a glance. Even though he was a bit stubborn, he was still soft after all, and it was good not to be bullied. Okay, how could you bully your wife and children?

Those people could also see that Ge Xiaomao might not have any talent for reading, but the two things should be looked at separately. Just because Ge Xiaomao failed to pass the exam, he could not be bullied like this.

Sheng's mother said it was for her daughter, but in the end she only talked about the Sheng family and did not mention Sheng Rong. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this Sheng's mother was not so much taking care of her daughter as venting her anger on the Ge family for not being able to reach Shang Xusheng.

The head of the Najie family smiled and said: "Xiao Mao, from now on you and I will be a family. If you don't understand anything in the imperial examination in the future, you can bring Xiao Rong to our house and let Zhi Wen give you some advice."

Sheng's mother smiled so hard that her mouth twisted, and she laughed and said: "Yes, yes, brother is right. When the time comes to Zhiwen, you should scold him, hit him, and give him good guidance!"

Although Xie Zhiwen was young, he could tell that his father and aunt's words were unpleasant and he frowned slightly.

Ge Xiaomao's face turned red, he clenched his hands into fists, and did not nod or shake his head.

Lu Lin and other classmates were almost furious. Although Xie Zhiwen was young and knowledgeable, it was normal for him to give advice to Ge Xiaomao. However, the words of the head of the family and Sheng's mother were not advice at all, but used Xie Zhiwen to humiliate Ge Xiaomao and make Xie Zhiwen From now on, I will always bow my head in front of the Jie family and the Sheng family.

Ying Tongzhi had a look of helplessness on his face. Perhaps the head of the family just wanted to help his sister, but Mrs. Sheng was a cunning and mean person. The two families would probably have constant disputes in the future.

"Mom, please don't say a few words on this special day." The bride's voice came out of the main hall.

Mother Sheng thought she had the upper hand and was feeling very proud. When she heard her daughter say that, she was furious.

"You little heartless girl, who am I doing this for? Isn't this all for your own good? If you don't shock the Ge family, they won't know how to control you in the future! Look at the Ge family. If they didn't rely on knowing Fang Xusheng, they would be a poor family!" Mother Sheng's words made her daughter speechless.

Xie Zhiwen said seriously: "Aunt, today is a big day, why are you saying this?"

The words of a child made the Ge family and a group of scholars secretly relieved.

Mother Sheng smiled and said: "Zhiwen, you are still young, you don't understand the affairs of this family."

Xie Zhiwen said seriously: "We children don't understand your adult affairs, but at least I know that if you respect others one foot, others will respect you one yard. Since we are a family, unless you have done something harmful, you can sit down and talk."

"Why are you turning your elbows outward?" Mother Sheng's smile froze on her face.

"You just said we were a family, why are we now divided into inner and outer families?" Xie Zhiwen said.

The head of the Xie family looked gloomy and said, "How can you talk to your aunt? After so many years of studying, have you even forgotten the hierarchy of elders and juniors? Apologize to your aunt!"

Xie Zhiwen sighed helplessly, bowed to Sheng's mother, and said, "My nephew is rude, please forgive me, aunt."

Sheng's mother smiled and said, "This is a good child. Our Sheng and Jie families are better than the Ge family. Tell me what's wrong with the Ge family? I'm doing this for Xiaorong's good."

Everyone in the Ge family was silent. Ge Xiaomao lowered his head, his heart full of anger. He never thought that his wedding would be so humiliating. If it weren't for Sheng Rong, he would have overturned the table on the spot.
