Ge Guangmu often goes to Zhang's house because the girls of Zhang's family are often replaced, which makes him feel fresh.

As for losing this leaf card, Ge Guangmu didn't care, it was only four or five taels of silver a day, and sometimes he would earn a little bit.

Ge Guangmu did not keep accounts, but Zhang Zuwang kept accounts every day, and on the sixth day of the sixth month of June, Zhang Zuwang invited Lu Ya and Ge Guangmu to come.

When he arrived at Zhang Zuwang's house, Ge Guangmu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Lu Ya, these days, he had forgotten about this creditor, and he didn't know why Zhang Zuwang came to Lu Ya.

Seeing Ge Guangmu's hesitant appearance, Zhang Zuwang pulled Ge Guangmu to the living room, asked Ge Guangmu to sit down, and said to Ge Guangmu: "I came to you this time to settle an account with Ge Xianggong." ”

"I don't know what the account is, I don't owe anything here."

Every time Ge Guangmu played cards, he used up the silver he brought, even if it was over.

"Of course it's not that, it's just Ge Xianggong, you eat here, and there is money for playing, Ge Xianggong seems to have never opened it."

When Zhang Zuwang said this, Lu Ya said to Ge Guangmu: "This Master Zhang knows that Ge Xianggong doesn't understand this, and it's not easy to mention it, but he owes a little too much, so he has to bother." ”

Ge Guangmu knew that he had to pay for this, but Zhang Zuwang didn't talk about it, so he didn't care.

Now that Zhang Zuwang asked for it, he had to ask how much it was.

"One hundred and sixty hanging money, the account book is here, Ge Xianggong, please take a look."

Ge Guangmu took the account book, he hurriedly looked at it, and then returned the account book to Zhang Zuwang.

"As for the money for playing cards, the government can't control it, but the government can still manage the money for this meal, and Ge Xianggong you just married a wife, if your in-laws know about it, what do you think he will think?"

Ge Guangmu had already relied on it once, and this time it was not easy to rely on, so he could only sign and leave here.

Because of the wedding, he put the money in Zhang's place, and if Zhang's was not satisfied with the gift, it was convenient to buy it with cash immediately.

After getting married, the money naturally went into the hands of Kong Liyang, and Kong Liyang was in charge, and it was easy for Ge Guangmu to take a few taels of silver, but this one hundred and sixty taels of silver, no matter what, he was not easy to speak.

He thought of collecting rent, but this idea just got up, so he dispelled this idea, this matter has always been done by Wang Zhong, plus he is still thin-skinned, so naturally he can't go.

Thinking about it, he thought of his cousin.

When he arrived at the Zhang family's shop, he inquired that Zhang Qing's family went to Fengcheng and was not here for the time being.

When Ge Guangmu left, he happened to meet Li Gongzi arriving on horseback, Li Gongzi saw Ge Guangmu, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Isn't this the second brother?" Long time no see, come, come and sit at my house. ”

Ge Guangmu thought that Li Gongzi also understood this, so he followed Li Gongzi and went to Li Mansion.

When they arrived at the Li Mansion, after the two sides sat down, Li Gongzi said to Ge Guangmu: "What are you, with a sad face. ”

"This matter is not in a hurry, such a hot day, big brother, where did you come from."

"I came from Lin Xuezheng, my great-grandfather, who used to be an errand under Lin Wenzheng, so I went to visit this Xuezheng."

Ge Guangmu didn't know about this and didn't care, Li Gongzi said with a smile: "Of course, I haven't forgotten the second brother, I praised you in front of Lin Xuezheng, Lin Xuezheng seems to have the intention of letting you enroll in school." In a few days, I will go to blow the wind again and try to let you enroll in school, second brother. ”

Ge Guangmu hurriedly thanked Li Gongzi for his kindness, and Li Gongzi asked Ge Guangmu what he was worried about.

Ge Guangmu said his embarrassment, and after Li Gongzi heard it, he frowned and said to Ge Guangmu: "It turned out to be such a trivial matter, this is all a trivial matter, wrapped in me." ”

Ge Guangmu asked Li Gongzi what he was going to do, and Li Gongzi said with a smile: "You will know when you come to my house tomorrow, second brother, will your eldest brother still pit your brother?" ”

Seeing that Li Gongzi was so bold, Ge Guangmu was also relieved.

The next day, Ge Guangmu arrived at Li Gongzi, and at this time, Zhang Zuwang, Zhang Zhishu, and Lu Ya all came.

After they had eaten, they naturally began to shout five and drink six, and called the domino leaf card brothers.

At the end of the day, Zhang Zuwang lost ninety taels.

This will lose, the first is because he is not prepared, this can't be a thousand, you can only rely on real skills.

The second is because Lu Ya's partner has repeatedly opposed him, and he would rather both of them lose, that is, he doesn't want him to win.

As for Zhang Zhishu, Zhang Zuwang glanced at him a few times, but this Zhang Zhishu was as if he didn't notice it.

The right time, place, and people don't occupy him, so it's natural to lose more and win less.

Zhang Zuwang didn't want to play anymore, and at this time, Li Gongzi was not embarrassed, and said to Zhang Zuwang: "Tomorrow call your Wang Erzhu here and take away fifty taels of silver, these forty taels are what I paid for my second brother, and ten taels are the ones I gave him Caitou, as for the twenty taels, even if the money is drawn and tea." ”

After Li Gongzi finished speaking, he didn't pay attention to Zhang Zuwang, and said to Ge Guangmu: "You don't have to go to his house anymore, is there still a shortage of beauties in this Xijing City?" If you want to learn from Liu Lang to visit the rooftop, just tell the eldest brother that tomorrow you will sing a make-up poem to Na Sai Xi Shi. The day after tomorrow, I will ask you to sing a poem to the beautiful sable cicada, and I will finally call you as happy as living in the daughter country. ”

Zhang Zuwang saw Li Gongzi talking to himself, although he was angry in his heart, but Li Gongzi was an extraordinary person, he ate up and down, and he was a declining gentry child, whether he was playing good or evil, he was not his opponent.

However, Zhang Zuwang has already returned some of his capital these days, and with tomorrow's fifty taels of silver, he can be regarded as earning.

So Zhang Zuwang said respectfully: "Gongzi Li, thank you for taking care of me." ”

Li Gongzi told them to rest and waited until after dawn before letting them leave.

Walking on the road, Ge Guangmu only felt a lot more relaxed, thinking that this righteous brother still had such benefits.

But he seems to be for, that Gou Geng, and it seems that he is also his own righteous brother.

When he returned home, Ge Guangmu found an excuse, saying that Li Gongzi's hospitality was difficult, and he could only stay overnight.

Although Kong Liyang did not agree with her husband's approach in her heart, she didn't dare to say much, she told Ge Guangmu by the way that someone came to rent a house yesterday and was a blacksmith.

Ge Guangmu was also short of money during this time, so he agreed and rented a house near his house.

When renting this, Ge Guangmu saw the theater troupes in the house, and felt a little embarrassed, and finally thought that these things were not worth much anyway, so they should be put here.

So Ge Guangmu didn't care, wrote a contract with the blacksmith, and then found a guarantor, and the matter was done.

By July, Ge Guangmu also reined in his heart and studied in the school to be able to enroll.

On the third day of the seventh month, Li Gongzi asked his servants to invite him, so Ge Guangmu was curious to go to Li Gongzi's house, and this time he went directly to the backyard.

I saw that on the pavilion in the backyard, a handsome boy was looking at the couplets in the pavilion.

When Ge Guangmu came before, he didn't pay attention, so he couldn't help but look at it, only to see that it was written.

"Ancestor Shao is a little true and diligent and thrifty

Teach your children and grandchildren two righteous paths, read and plough"

The meaning of this couplet is very simple, Ge Guangmu blushed a little when he saw it, and at this time, Li Gongzi stepped forward and said to that son: "Lord Lin, this is Ge Guangmu." ”

Lin Shaowen saw Ge Guangmu for the first time, and when he saw Ge Guangmu's appearance, he liked it a little.

Ge Guangmu didn't expect that the young man in front of him, who was not a few years older than himself, turned out to be Lin Xuezheng, and hurriedly saluted.

Lin Shaowen helped Ge Guangmu up and said to Ge Guangmu: "Today, the official Weifu came here, so there is no need to be polite." ”

After the two sides sat down, Lin Shaowen also introduced Ye Shixi, and after everyone met, Lin Shaowen was admitted to the school to learn from Ge Guangmu.

Although these days, Ge Guangmu is busy competing for victory and defeat on the field, and arguing about male and female in the Badao formation, but he has also read a few books and has a little foundation, although compared with Lin Shaowen, it is a little inappropriate to say eight catties and eight taels, but Lin Shaowen can't help Lin Shaowen.

Ye Shixi watched from the sidelines, but he didn't care, this Ge Guangmu's knowledge, compared with the students, is at the same level, and it is not worth mentioning.

As for Li Gongzi, he was there with a smile and a smile, although he didn't understand knowledge, but he was extremely observant, if Ge Guangmu had something that he couldn't answer, and there was a look of embarrassment on his face, Li Gongzi would make a joke and perfunctory this.

The four of them had a rare and happy relationship, and finally Lin Shaowen told Ge Guangmu that if he ordered Ge Guangmu to enroll in school like this, then he would be discussed by Shilin, and he would have to wait for next year.

After Ge Guangmu thanked him, when it was nightfall, Lin Shaowen and Ye Shixi left together.

On the way back, Lin Shaowen said with a smile: "This Ge Guangmu is not bad, I remember that my great-grandfather was mentioned in my father's collection, and he was a righteous man. ”

"Yes, it is indeed mentioned in the collection of Wenzheng Gongzi, but it's a pity that this person has no half knowledge."

"Really? I think it's pretty good. ”

"Mr. Hui, he doesn't have any ability in the first place, and the disciples who have taught him can naturally know what is going on. However, there is some talent to learn. ”

"Kong Zhi also recommended this person to the official, doesn't he know this Ge Guangmu's talent?"

Ye Shixi smiled and told Lin Shaowen that this Ge Guangmu was Kong Zhi's fast son-in-law, so he naturally wanted to recommend it.

Lin Shaowen shook his head and said, "I thought he was a cold man, and he recommended him as a cold man." ”

"Since ancient times, there have been a few Hanshi who can be recommended. And this hole is dangerous, and he is not a cold man. In fact, Yige Guangmu's family background does not need to go to school, and when the time comes, it is nothing more than donating a tribute, or he will enter the official career with a chaju, just like his father. ”
