Chapter 2 The second round of Mrs. Jia’s passing away, Leng Zixing in Yangzhou City gave a speech at Rongguo Mansion

Poetry goes: The outcome of a game is uncertain, and it is still hesitating to sell all the tea. If you want to know the current signs of prosperity and decline, you must ask the cold-eyed bystanders. But Feng Su hurriedly came out to ask questions with a smile because he heard the summons from Tolerance.Those people only yelled: Please come out with Master Zhen!Feng Su hurriedly laughed and said: The villain's surname is Feng, not Zhen.Only the son-in-law was surnamed Zhen at that time, and he has been a monk for a year or two. I don't know, but ask him?Those gentlemen said: "We don't know what's true or false, because we were ordered by the grandfather to ask. Since he is your son-in-law, he took you to see the grandfather in person, so as not to run around."After saying that, Feng Su was not allowed to talk too much, everyone pushed and hugged him.Everyone in the Feng family panicked, not knowing what to expect.

At about 2 o'clock that day, I saw Feng Sufang coming back, very happy.Everyone is busy asking questions.He said: "it turns out that the newly promoted grandfather in this mansion is surnamed Jia Minghua, who was born in Huzhou and had acquaintance with his son-in-law in the past."I just passed by our door, because I saw that girl Jiao Xing buying thread, so he moved here only as a son-in-law.I explained the reasons one by one, and the grandfather sighed sadly, and asked his granddaughter again, and I said that the lamp was lost.The grandfather said: "It's okay, I must visit and come back from the envoy.After saying something, he gave me two taels of silver before leaving.When the lady of the Zhen family heard this, she couldn't help feeling sad.There was nothing to say all night.

On the next day, someone from Yu Village had already sent two letters of silver and four pieces of brocade to thank the wife of the Zhen family, and sent a secret letter to Feng Su, asking the wife of the Zhen family to ask the wife of the Zhen family for that charming apricot to be her second wife.Feng Suxi's crap was out of control, eager to be flattered, so she tried her best to do it in front of her daughter, and sent Jiao Xing in with only a small sedan chair at night.Yucun was happy, needless to say, he gave a hundred gold gifts to Feng Su, thanking the wife of the Zhen family for a lot of things, so that she can have a good life and support, waiting to find out the whereabouts of her daughter.Feng Su went home speechless.

But it is said that the maid Jiao Xing was the one who looked back at Yu Village that year.It was also a strange fate that I didn't expect to come up with this incident because of a casual glance.Who would have thought that he would have two fates, but since he came to Yucun, he gave birth to a son only a year later, and half a year later, Yucun's first wife died suddenly of an illness, so Yucun helped him to be his wife.It's exactly: Occasionally, because of a wrong move, you will become a master. It turned out that after Yucun Yin donated silver to Shi Yin that year, he got up and went to the capital on the 16th, when he reached the stage of Dabi, unexpectedly he was very proud. .Although he is talented, but he is greedy and cruel, and he is insulted by his talent, all the officials look sideways.In less than a year, the boss found a gap and made a book. He was cunning, good at compiling etiquette, and in the name of integrity, he secretly married tigers and wolves, causing local troubles and people's lives to be miserable.Longyan was furious and dismissed immediately.As soon as the document arrived, all officials in this government were delighted.Although Yucun was very ashamed and resentful in his heart, there was no trace of resentment on his face, and he was still smiling freely; he had confessed to official business and sent some of the capital and family members accumulated by the government over the years to his original place, and it was himself who made the arrangements for compromise. Bear the wind and hold the moon, visit the world's scenic spots.

On that day, I swam to the ground of Weiyang again, because I heard that Lin Ruhai was in charge of the government this year.This Lin Ruhai's surname is Lin and his name is Hai, and his name is Ruhai.It turns out that the ancestor of Lin Ruhai once attacked Liehou, and now he has been in Ruhai for five generations.At the beginning, only the third generation was enshrined, because today's Long En Shengde is far ahead of the previous generation, with extra grace, the father of Zhi Ruhai inherited another generation; Zhi Ruhai was born in Kedi.Although it belongs to the family of Zhong Ding, it is also a family of scholars.It's a pity that the Lin family's branches are not prosperous, and their descendants are limited. Although there are a few families, they are all members of the same family as Ru Hai, and there is no direct lineage.Now Hai is forty years old, and there is only one three-year-old son, who died last year.Although there are several concubines, he is destined to have no children, so there is nothing he can do.Today there is only Jia's first wife, who has a daughter named Daiyu, who is only five years old.The husband and wife have no children, so love is like a treasure, and seeing that he is smart and handsome, he also wants to make him read a few words, but pretending to be an adopted son, chatting to relieve the sigh of desolation under his knees.

Yucun was suffering from the wind and cold occasionally, and was sick in the hotel. It will gradually recover in January.One is because of physical fatigue, and the other is because of exhaustion, and I am trying to find a suitable place to rest for the time being.Fortunately, there are two old friends who also live in this place. Because they heard that the government wanted to hire a Xibin, Yucun relied on the strength of their friends to seek in and make a living.The beauty is that there is only one female student and two accompanying maids. This female student is young and physically weak, and there is no limit to the number of homework and lessons, so it saves effort.

It's been another year, but Mrs. Jia, the mother of the female student, died of illness.The female students served soup and medicine, and mourned for the funeral, so they left the hall again.Lin Ruhai wanted to make Nv Shouzhi study, so she let him stay again.Recently, because the female student was sad and injured, she was timid and sickly, and she violated the old disease, so she didn't go to school for several days.Living in Yucun is boring. Whenever the weather is sunny, he will go out for a walk after dinner. On this day, I came to Guowai by chance, intending to enjoy the scenery of the village.Suddenly walking to a place surrounded by mountains and swirling water, lush forests and deep bamboos, there is a faint temple, the gates and alleys are ruined, the walls are decayed, there is a temple in front of the gate, inscribed with the word Zhitong Temple, and there is an old dilapidated temple beside the gate. The couplet, said:

There is Yu Wang shrinking his hands behind him, and there is no way to turn back in front of him. Yucun looked at it, because he thought: these two sentences, although the text is simple and close, their meaning is deep.I have also swam to some famous mountains and temples, but I have never seen this kind of Huatou. I don’t know if one of them must have turned somersaults. Why don’t you go in and try.Thinking about walking in, there was only an old monk in Longzhong cooking porridge there.When Yucun saw it, he didn't care.When I asked him a few words, the old monk was deaf and dizzy, his teeth were broken and his tongue was blunt, so he didn't answer the question.

Yucun was impatient, so he still came out, intending to buy three cups in the village shop to help the wild fun, so he came on foot.When I was about to enter the fourth gate, I saw one of the drinking guests standing up and laughing, took it out, and said in his mouth: "Fortunate encounter, fortuitous encounter."When Yucun was busy looking around, he found out that this person was a No. 1 Leng Zixing who traded in the antique shop in Duzhong, and he had known each other in Duzhong in the past.Yucun praised this Leng Zixing as a man of great ability, and this Zixing borrowed the name of Yucun's gentleness, so the two talked speculatively and they were the most compatible.Yucun hurriedly asked with a smile: When will you be here, brother?My brother didn't know.It's really a strange fate to meet by chance today.Zixing said: "I got home at the end of last year, and now I have to go to the capital. From then on, I stopped by to find a poor friend and said a word. In his favor, let me stay for two more days."I have nothing to worry about, and I will hang around for two days, and I will get up after a month and a half.My friend is busy today, so I came here for a leisurely walk and rested my feet. I didn't expect such a chance encounter!On the one hand, he asked Yucun to sit at the same table, and on the other hand, he served wine and food.The two chatted and drank, and talked about what happened next.

Yu Cunyin asked: Is there any news in Duzhong recently?Zixing said: "There is no news, but old gentleman, you belong to the same clan, and a little strange thing happened.Yucun said with a smile: "No one in my brother's family is in the capital, so why talk about this?"Zixing laughed and said, "You have the same surname, so aren't you from the same clan?"Yucun asked who it was.Zixing said: "Did the Jia's residence in Rongguo's mansion also insult the master's lintel?"Yucun smiled and said: So it's his house.If we talk about it, there are quite a few Han people. Since Jiafu in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the tribes have flourished, and they can be found in every province. Who can check it carefully?If we talk about the Rongguo branch, they are on the same spectrum.But it is inconvenient for us to talk about his glory, so it is becoming more and more unfamiliar and difficult to recognize.Zixing sighed and said, "don't say that, old man."The Ningrong and Rong sects of today are also desolate, not compared to the previous situation.Yucun Road: The population of Ningrong and Rongzhai was also very large, how could it be so desolate?Leng Zixing said: Exactly, it's a long story.Yucun said: "Last year I went to the boundary of Jinling, because I wanted to visit the relics of the Six Dynasties, so I entered Stone City that day and passed by the gate of his old house.Ningguo Mansion is on the east side of the street, and Rongguo Mansion is on the west side of the street. The two houses are connected together, occupying most of the street.Although there is no one in front of the gate, looking through the wall, the halls and pavilions inside are still majestic and majestic; even the trees, mountains and rocks in the garden in the back area are still lush and moist, like a decaying house. ?Leng Zixing said with a smile: "Thanks to you being a Jinshi, it doesn't make sense!"The ancients said: Centipede insects, dead but not stiff.Although it is not as prosperous as it was in previous years, compared with ordinary official families, the atmosphere is different after all.Nowadays, the population is increasing, the affairs are flourishing, masters and servants, there are many people who are rich and honorable, and there is no one who plans and plans; their daily expenses cannot be frugal. The inner capsule is also exhausted.This is still trivial.There is another big event: Who would have thought that such a family of Zhongming Dingshi, a family of calligraphy and calligraphy, and today's children and grandchildren are not as good as one generation after another!When Yucun heard about it, he was also surprised and said, "is there any reason why such a family of poetry and rites is not good at education?"I don't know about other families, but they only say that the Ning and Rong houses are the best at teaching their children.

Zixing sighed, "We are talking about these two schools."Let me tell you: Ningguogong and Rongguogong were brothers and sisters of the same mother.Duke Ning was the eldest and had four sons.After the death of Duke Ning, Jia Daihua took over the official position and raised two sons: the long name was Jia Fu, who died at the age of eight or nine, and only the second son, Jia Jing, took over the official position. Burning alchemy and refining mercury, the rest don't care at all.Fortunately, a son was left behind in his early years, named Jia Zhen, because his father wanted to be a fairy, so he let him attack the official.His father refused to go back to his hometown, so he just chatted with the Taoist priests outside the city of Duzhong.This Master Zhen gave birth to a son, who is only sixteen years old this year, and his name is Jia Rong.Now I don't care about respecting my father.This Master Zhen is willing to study, but he just can't enjoy himself. He turned Ningguo Mansion upside down, and no one dared to take care of him.Let's talk about Rongfu, listen, the strange thing just said is here.After the death of Duke Rong, the eldest son Jia Daishan took over the official position and married a lady from Jinling Shixun Shihou's family as his wife. He gave birth to two sons: the eldest son Jia She and the second son Jia Zheng.Now that Daishan has passed away long ago, Mrs. Tai is still alive, the eldest son Jia She is the successor to the official position, the second son Jia Zheng loves reading since he was a child, and his grandfather loves him the most. Because of his sympathy for his predecessors, the emperor immediately ordered the eldest son to attack the official, and asked how many other sons he had, and immediately introduced him. Then he gave the political father an additional title of master, and ordered him to study in the ministry. Now he has been promoted to Yuanwailang .Mrs. Wang, the wife of Mr. Zheng, had a first-born son named Jia Zhu. He entered school at the age of fourteen, married a wife and gave birth to a son before he was twenty, and died of illness.The second child gave birth to a lady, who was born on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is strange. I don’t want to give birth to a son later. It’s even more strange. As soon as the placenta was born, a piece of colorful and crystal-clear jade was held in his mouth. There are many handwriting on it, so it is named Baoyu.You say it's a novelty, isn't it? Yucun said with a smile: "It's really strange."I'm afraid this person has a lot of background.Zixing sneered and said, "Everyone says so, so it's my grandmother who loves her like a treasure first."When he was one year old that year, Father Zheng wanted to test his future ambitions, so he laid out countless things in the world for him to grab.Unexpectedly, he didn't take any of them, he just reached out to grab some hairpins and hairpins.Father Zheng was furious, and said: In the future, you will be a drunk and lustful person!Therefore, he was very displeased.Du Nashi old lady is still the same as his lifeblood.Strange to say, now that he is seven or eight years older, although he is extremely mischievous, he is not as clever and obedient as one in a hundred.It's strange to talk about children, he said: daughters are made of water, and men are made of mud.When I see my daughter, I feel refreshed; when I see a man, I feel foul and smelly.Do you think it's funny or not?There is no doubt that there will be a pervert in the future!Yu Cunhan hurriedly stopped and said: No!It's a pity that you don't know the origin of this person.Perhaps the senior political elders also mistakenly treat them as lewd monsters and lewd ghosts.If you don't read a lot to understand things, add the power of knowing and investigating things, and realize the power of Tao and Shenxuan, you can't know it. Zixing saw that what he said was so important, so he hurriedly asked Qiduan for advice.Yucun said: "Heaven and earth are born of man, except for the great benevolence and the great evil, the rest are all the same."Those who are very benevolent will be born in accordance with the times, and those who are very evil will be born in response to kalpas.Fortune begets world governance, calamity begets world crisis.Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, Zhou, Zhao, Kong, Meng, Dong, Han, Zhou, Cheng, Zhang, and Zhu all came into being in response to the times.Chiyou, Gonggong, Jie, Zhou, Shihuang, Wang Mang, Cao Cao, Huanwen, Anlushan, Qin Hui, etc., all survived the catastrophe.Those who are benevolent will rule the world; those who are evil will disturb the world.Clear, bright and beautiful, the righteousness of the heaven and earth is embraced by the benevolent; cruel and eccentric, the evil spirit of the heaven and earth is embraced by the wicked.Today, in the reign of Yun Long Zuo Yong, the world of peace and inaction, the spirit of Qingming and Lingxiu can be found everywhere in the imperial court and in the grass and fields.The rest of the delicate beauty has nowhere to return, so it is nectar, a gentle breeze, and it is in harmony with the world.The cruel and eccentric evil spirit cannot overflow in the broad daylight, so it condenses and fills the deep ditch. Occasionally, due to the wind, or being destroyed by the cloud, there is a slight sense of shaking, and it leaks out by mistake. , Occasionally, the spirit of beauty is suitable, and the evil is not tolerated, and the evil is jealous of the right. The two are incompatible, just like Fengshui, thunder and lightning.Therefore, its qi must also be given to people, and it will dissipate as soon as it is exhausted.If a man and a woman are born with this spirit, they will not be able to be benevolent and gentlemen at the top, nor will they be vicious and evil at the bottom.Among tens of thousands of people, his clever, handsome and delicate spirit is above tens of thousands of people, and his eccentric, evil, absurd and inhuman attitude is below tens of millions of people.If you are born in a rich and noble family, you will be an infatuated person; if you are born in a poor family with poetry and books, you will be a scholar; To control, must be advocating for strange and excellent names.Such as Xu You, Tao Qian, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang, Liu Ling, Wang Xie, Gu Hutou, Chen Houzhu, Tang Minghuang, Song Huizong, Liu Tingzhi, Wen Feiqing, Mi Nangong, Shi Manqing, Liu Qiqing, Qin Shaoyou, etc. Recently, Ni Yunlin, Tang Bohu, Zhu Zhishan, Li Guinian, Huang Fanchuo, Jing Xinmo, Zhuo Wenjun, Hong Fu, Xue Tao, Cui Ying, Chaoyun, etc., are all the same people if they change places. Zixing said: "According to you, if you succeed, you will be a prince, and if you lose, you will be a thief."Yucun said: That's exactly what it means.You don't know that since I was dismissed, I have traveled all over the provinces in the past two years, and I have also met two strange children.So, when you mentioned Baoyu just now, I guessed that it was probably also a person of this school.Needless to say, in Jinling City, the imperial envoy Zhen's family, president of the Jinling Provincial Institute of Physical Education, do you know?Zixing said: "No one knows!"The Zhen family and the Jia family are old relatives and family friends.The exchanges between the two families are extremely cordial.So I have been in contact with his family for more than a day. Yucun laughed and said, "I was in Jinling last year, and someone recommended me to be the office of the Zhenfu."I went in to have a look at its scene, but who knows that his family is so dignified, but it is a rich and well-mannered family, it is a rare house.But this student, although he is an enlightenment, is more troublesome than a professional.It's even more ridiculous to say, he said: I must have my two daughters to accompany me to study, so that I can read and understand in my heart; otherwise, I will be confused.He often said to his servants: The word daughter is extremely noble and pure, and it is more honorable than the two precious titles of Amitabha and Yuanshi Tianzun!You foul-mouthed people, don't say these two words abruptly, it's important.Whenever you want to speak, you must first rinse your mouth with clear water and fragrant tea; if you make a mistake, you have to goug your teeth and pierc your cheeks.He is tyrannical and impetuous, stubborn and foolish, and has all kinds of abnormalities.As soon as school was over, I went in to meet those daughters. They were gentle and peaceful, intelligent and elegant, and they changed again.Therefore, his father flogged Chu to death several times, but he couldn't change it.Every time he couldn't bear the pain, he would scream with his sisters.Later, I heard the daughters making fun of him: Why do you just ask the sisters to do something when you are in a hurry?Could it be that I begged my sister to intercede and beg for mercy?You are not ashamed!He answered the best.He said: "When the pain is urgent, just call sister and sister. I don't know if it can relieve the pain. Because I yelled, I didn't feel the pain anymore, so I got the secret method: every time the pain was extreme, I would call my sister to get up." up.Are you saying it's ridiculous?It was also because my grandmother doted on me unknown, and my grandson humiliated my teacher and blamed my son every time, so I resigned from the library.Now it is working as a museum in the Lin family of Xunyan Yushi.You see, this kind of children will definitely not be able to keep the foundation of their grandfather and follow the advice of their teachers.It's a pity that there are very few sisters in his family. Zixing said: "In Jia's mansion, the existing three are not bad."Father Zheng's eldest daughter, named Yuanchun, is now elected to the palace as a female historian because of her virtuousness, filial piety and talent.The second lady was born of Father She's concubine, named Yingchun; the third lady was born of Father Zheng's concubine, named Tanchun;Because Mrs. Shi loves her granddaughter very much, she all studies with her grandmother, and everyone hears well.Yucun Road: "What's even more wonderful is the customs of the Zhen family. The daughters' names are also named after the men's names, unlike other families who use these other colorful characters such as spring red, fragrant jade."Why is Jia's family also happy with this cliché?Zixing said: "No."Just because today's eldest lady was born on the first day of the first lunar month, she was named Yuanchun, and the rest followed the word spring.The previous generation also came from brothers.Now there is a proof: at present, the wife of your noble owner, Mrs. Lin, is the younger sister of Mr. She and Mr. Zheng of the Rong Mansion, and her name is Jia Min when she is at home.If you don't believe me, you can find out by going back and paying close attention.Yucun patted the table and laughed: "It's strange that this female student reads every book with sensitive characters, and reads them as secret characters. It is always like this;From what you said today, there is no doubt that it is for this reason.It's strange that my female student's speech and behavior are different, not the same as the girls in recent days. To save her mother must be extraordinary, and to get her daughter, it is not uncommon to know that she is the grandson of Rongfu, but she died last month.Zixing sighed: "There are four old sisters, this one is very small, and it's gone again."All the older sisters are gone.Just look at the younger generation, what will happen in the future? Yucun said: Exactly.It was said just now that the government official had a son with a jade title and a weak grandson left by his eldest son.There is no one who can forgive the old?Zixing said: "After Zhenggong had Yu'er, his concubine gave birth to another one. I don't know whether it is good or bad."There are only two sons and one grandson in front of me, but I don't know what the future will be.If you ask Mr. She, he also has two sons, whose long name is Jia Lian. They have been dating for twenty years, and they married the niece of Mrs. Wang's wife, Mrs. Zheng. They have been married for two years now.This Lord Lian is donated by a fellow acquaintance, who also refuses to study, and has a chance to talk in the world, so now he only lives in Master Nai Shuzheng's house, helping with some housework.Unexpectedly, after marrying his wife Ling, there is no one who does not praise his wife. Master Lian took a step backwards: he said that his appearance was extremely beautiful, his speech was sharp, and his scheming was extremely subtle, which is beyond compare for a man one. After hearing this, Yucun smiled and said, "You know what I said is true."The few people you and I mentioned just now are probably the people who came together with both good and evil talents, it is unknown.Zixing said: "Whether it's evil or righteous, you only care about other people's accounts. You should also have a glass of wine."Yucun said: Exactly, just talking, actually ate a few more glasses.Zixing said with a smile: "I was talking about other people's family, and I happened to be drinking, so why not have a few more glasses."Yucun looked out of the window and said: It's getting late, so close the city carefully.Let's go to the city slowly and talk again, it's not impossible.So, the two got up and paid back the wine bill.Just as Fang was about to leave, he heard someone shouting from behind: Brother Yucun, congratulations!I'm here to report the good news.When Umura was busy looking back.
