"Who?" Tang Ning handed the old man a bowl of hot cabbage soup with a piece of soaked soft cake in it, and then asked the old man.

It's not that the old man has no children, but his daughter has never come back since she got married. The relationship between father and son is not very good, so in old age, he has become a widower-like person.

Tang Ning saw that he was pitiful, so he made him an extra portion when he cooked every day, they were all neighbors, and it was nothing to take care of each other, which could be regarded as doing a good deed.

It's just that Tang Ning wanted to let this old man live in his own house, but the old man said that he would not say anything, and at this point, he was stubborn.

"I don't know." The old man took a sip of cabbage soup and sighed: "Anyway, I'm not looking for the Shen family." ”

Then, he took out a piece of fat from it, picked it up and looked at it, put it in his mouth and smacked it, and then frowned and said, "It's tender, let that little girl in your house mess it up next time, and it won't melt away." ”

Tang Ning responded perfunctorily, grabbed his hair, and secretly thought that this hat man couldn't be here to fish, right? The creek at the door is not a single fish that can be caught. Shen Kuo's father and son catch fish with nets upstream every day, and it is strange that they can catch fish downstream.

I don't know anyone else, the weather is getting hotter, this person is still wearing a hat, and it is not easy to get along with at first glance, so Tang Ning went home directly.

Followed by a group of runny children, Liu Yier stood at the door, holding a bamboo basket full of dry cakes and waving to the children.

I thought it was a trivial matter, but for three days, the man wearing the hat was fishing in front of his house every day. This made Tang Ning feel very strange, and after delivering food to the old man on the evening of the fourth day, Tang Ning went back to the house, and peeked at the fishing hat man like a thief.

After looking at it for a while, the man left. His coachman was also very patient, and stayed in the carriage for several days. When the hat man left, he followed.

On the fifth day, Tang Ning finally couldn't help it, and after handing the old man a bowl of chicken cakes in the morning, he strode over.

"Aha, finally let the old man catch it."

Before he got closer, he heard the hat man laugh, lifted the fishing rod in his hand, looked at the small fish on the hook and smiled: "The fish is not big, but it is cunning, but it makes the old man wait for a while." ”

Tang Ning looked helplessly at the little fish on the hook that had already died, and arched his hand: "But I don't know why this gentleman came from?" ”

The hat man turned his head, looked at Tang Ning and smiled: "Boy, you are Tang Ning?" ”

"Exactly down there."

"Hmm, I heard that your master is a recluse?"

"Master often said that he was just a man of the mountains, far inferior to the name of a master."

"Full of losses, humble benefits, your master knows the meaning of these words. The old man asks you, where does this sentence come from? ”

"This ......"

Seeing that Tang Ning couldn't answer, the hat man took off the hat and angrily knocked Tang Ning's head with the tail of the fishing rod. Tang Ning was also very angry, but when he saw that this person's temples were white, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

The old man next door will not make a mistake even if he rides under him.

Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith, loyalty to the emperor ranks first, and filial piety to elders is second.

"What, I was beaten by the old man and I was not convinced?" The hat man squinted at Tang Ning and sneered: "Full of losses, humble benefits, from "Da Yu Mo", and "Da Yu Mo" is from "Shang Shu", you haven't even read Shang Shu, and you dare to run out and embarrass your master?" ”

"I, I, I ......"

"What am I? The old man asks you again, what is a gentleman? ”

"The gentleman is frank, and the villain is a relative!" This Downing knew, and replied proudly.

The hat-taker took a few steps back, stretched out a finger and pointed at Tang Ning tremblingly, and it took a long time before he shouted: "The old man is angry!" ”

The coachman hurriedly stepped forward to help, and Tang Ning also grabbed Liu Yier, who was watching the excitement at the door, and wondered: "Am I not right?" ”

Liu Yi'er's eyes were full of disdain when she looked at Tang Ning, and she opened her mouth and said, "Young master, people ask you what a gentleman is, but they don't ask you the difference between a gentleman and a villain. ”

"And how do I answer?"

Liu Yi'er rolled her eyes and said, "I know where to go here." ”

"If you don't learn, you can't do it! If you don't learn, you can't do it! The hateman pointed at Tang Ning and roared: "The official affairs of the imperial city entrust you to the old man, it is simply a great humiliation to the old man!" Seeing that you have learned nothing, you don't know if you ask three questions, and your master can't be any higher! ”

Sure enough, it was Liu Ling's moth again. Tang Ning really hates Liu Ling very much now, this guy can't be his nanny now, so he found himself a new nanny.

Tang Ning said with an unswerving expression: "Sir's words are wrong, the family teacher teaches and never reads from the book. Since he read and write, the tutor has never forced him to read and endorse books anymore.

On the other hand, it is the words and deeds of the family teacher. There are a lot of things that the tutor teaches and the following, and together with learning, it is the least good at the next. ”

The hatsman didn't get angry but laughed: "Okay, let's have a good chat now, what has your master taught you!" ”

So the hat man looked at Tang Ning's eyes with a hint of cunning, and asked with a sneer: "There is a pool, two water pipes, the first water pipe can fill the pool in one and a half hours, and the second water pipe can empty the pool in two hours."

Now the administrator of the pool should use the water pipe B to empty the water in the pool with the water pipe A open, and ask how many hours can the water in the pool be empty? ”

"The old man is defeated." The hat man said very shamelessly.

Tang Ning glared at the hat man for a long time before gritting his teeth and arching his hand: "Awesome! ”

The hat-taker stroked the beard on his chin and laughed, "This is arithmetic, not what the old man is good at." The ruler is short, and it is not a shame for the old man to admit defeat in the field he is not good at.

If you slap a swollen face and become fat, it is not a shame, this is stupid. ”

Tang Ning said with admiration: "Mr. Gaojian, the younger generation has been taught." It's windy outside, so please come inside. ”

The hatsman laughed, "That's exactly how it should be." ”

"Hey, don't go. Downing, how many hours? ”

Just as the hats and Tang Ning were about to enter the house, a shout suddenly came from the direction of Mengxi Garden.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Shen Kuo jumping down from the wall, not standing firm and falling.

Shen Boyi hurriedly helped Shen Kuo, who fell to the ground, up, and just like that, Shen Kuo also shouted at Tang Ning: "Is it six hours?" ”

"If Shen Cunzhong can put the mentality of being an official with the mentality of being a scholar, why is this so." The hatper looked at Shen Kuo, shook his head and sighed, and then strode into Tang Ning's house. ”

The question of a perverted pool administrator is not difficult and belongs to the category of the third grade of primary school. But in ancient times, mathematics was far less developed than in later generations. Chickens and rabbits in the same cage can be a tricky problem, let alone a pool keeper.

The answer is twelve hours, six hours is true, but Shen Kuo can solve it so quickly, which makes Tang Ning extremely surprised.

He really wanted to discuss it with Shen Kuo for a while, but now he had to take care of this hat-fighting man.

Then he said to Shen Kuo: "It's six hours." ”

Shen Kuo smiled happily, didn't pester Tang Ning, and went home with a masterful demeanor.

"Father is amazing!" Shen Boyi said reverently.

"The old man's."

“……”

………………

"There are trees in the courtyard that are trapped, and you have become a prisoner when you cut down the trees, boy, you didn't choose this place very well." As soon as you enter the door, you can see the tall pear tree, the pear blossoms that have fallen to the ground have not been swept away, and the small pears have not yet grown, like flower bones.

Tang Ning scratched his head and said, "Anyway, I don't believe in this, just let it go." ”

The man shook his head and said, "Zi Bu is strange and confused, but after so many years, the old man still feels that he would rather believe what he has than what he doesn't." ”

"So what is the boy going to do?"

"Keep it, it's better to be sleepy than to be imprisoned."

It's equivalent to not saying. Tang Ning slandered in his heart.

When the hat-taker entered the door, he sat down on a stool in the antechamber with a golden sword.

Liu Yier, who got up in the morning and washed her hair, and her hair was not yet dry, hurriedly boiled hot water to make a pot of tea, and poured a cup for the two.

The coachman naturally stood at the entrance of the lobby of the antechamber, looked at his standing posture, and gave him a gun, this guy was a sentry.

The hat-bearer took a sip of the teacup, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath, sighing, "The aftertaste is endless." ”

Tang Ning couldn't say anything, and talking to the master was embarrassing.

Then the hat man put the teacup on the table heavily, coughed and said: "Tell me about your affairs in Nanshanzhai, Liu Gongshi praised you in his letter to the old man, and said that you are a rare hero in the world."

When I saw it today, the old man felt that it was a bit exaggerated.

Tell me for yourself, what you did in Nanshanzhai, the causes and consequences, are all clear. ”

Liu Yi'er stood aside and pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, while Tang Ning blinked, and when she saw the serious look of the hat, she swallowed her saliva and said slowly: "The family teacher passed away, and soon after the younger generation buried the family teacher, he ate up the food stored in the family, and in desperation, he had to go out to find traces of people in order to survive."

Who knows, I actually encountered a black bear......"
