Chapter Ninety-Six: Giving the Surname and Losing the Public
A few people sat down, and Zhou Huai took the time to briefly say Qi Xianyu's identity to Shi Niang. Shi Niang nodded in understanding, so she went to the backyard with Qi Xianyu and Wang Shi to chat with the child.
After only Tang Ning and Zhou Huai were left in the front hall, Zhou Huai drank tea and asked, "I have been in Qingtang for a year, have you fallen behind in studying?" ”
"Back to Master's words, although the war in Qingtang was tense, the apprentice never left behind to read, and whenever he had free time, he would take a book out and flip it through.
If the master doesn't believe it, you can take the school exam. ”
Zhou Huai said with a smile: "It's better to forget about the school examination, the old man believes in you." ”
Tang Ning also smiled: "Thank you Master for your trust." ”
"Speaking of which, you've got married, but you haven't done the crown yet, have you?"
"This ...... It seems that yes, in the impression of the disciple, it seems that he has not performed the crown salute. ”
"Alas, it's all a delay in running around. It was also the old man's dereliction of duty that he forgot about it.
Anyway, it's too unseemly to perform the crown ceremony after getting married, just when you have done the crown ceremony. The old man will help you take the words by the way today. ”
"Okay, okay, what words is Master going to take for the apprentice?"
"I'll get you a Mingyuan!"
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Master, what does the word Mingyuan mean?" ”
"Zhuge Kongming's "Book of Commandments", when you were in Zhuliu Academy, Wang Weisi has already taught you to memorize it, do you still remember the content?"
Tang Ning thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Remember." ”
"Tell me about it."
"The trip of a husband and a gentleman is quiet to cultivate oneself and thrift to cultivate virtue. There is no ambition without indifference, and there is no far-reaching ambition without tranquility.
The husband must learn quietly, only then must learn, non-learning can not be broad, non-ambition can not learn.
If you are slow and slow, you will not be able to excite your sperm, and if you are impatient, you will not be able to cure your sex.
The year and the time are gone, the intention is gone, and then it becomes withered, and it does not receive the world, and it is sad to keep the poor, what will it do. ”
"Your word Mingyuan is taken from this "Book of Commandments". You are loose by nature, unwilling to move forward without supervision, and in your early years, you studied with Senior Brother Xu in the deep mountains and old forests, and Senior Brother Xu doesn't seem to have too many constraints on you, which makes you have a temperament that jumps out.
Therefore, the old man hopes that you will be able to calm down in the future, no matter how you behave or do things. With indifferent ambitions, with tranquility and far-reaching.
Diligence is to inspire, and peace is to govern. There is a desire to learn, and there is a wide range of talents. Assist the king and benefit the people of the world. ”
Tang Ning listened carefully, got up and knelt in front of Zhou Huai and said, "Thank you Master for giving me the word!" ”
Zhou Huai watched Tang Ning kowtow to himself three times, then got up and picked Tang Ning up and said: "In the future, the teacher will not be by your side, every time you read the word Mingyuan, you should take this as a spur."
Do not be lazy, do not be mocking. Did you know? ”
Tang Ning nodded heavily and said, "The apprentice knows." ”
Zhou Huai laughed, patted Tang Ning's shoulder vigorously and said, "This is my good apprentice!" ”
After that, the two chatted about the Qingtang battle again, and Zhou Huai couldn't go with the big army this time, which was a little regretful. Therefore, when Downing came back, where would he let go of this person who had experienced it firsthand?
So, Tang Ning said many things like this, like and so again.
When he said that he wanted to be able to train the army and spared the use of gunpowder, the master really scolded himself for being bloody.
In Master's view, being able to come back alive after going to the battlefield is already a kind of exercise. Downing's approach is really stupid.
After lunch, Tang Ning made a dish of braised pork and a lot of messy side dishes. Everyone eats happily, and the teacher is the most.
She had a smile on her face, but sighed and said, "There are not a few people living in such a big house." Every day, when it comes to eating, it's always empty. There is also a chong around him, as lively as today, it is rare. ”
Tang Ning smiled and said, "If the master thinks that the few people are too lonely, it is better to move to my side with the master and build another house to live in." I have a lot of family, so if you are bored, come to my house. ”
When Shi Niang heard this, she felt very moved, so she looked at Zhou Huai.
Zhou Huai also thinks this proposal is good, but he has just expanded this house after taking office, and now he is going to build a new house, and if it is known, wouldn't he be left with a handle of extravagance?
So Zhou Huai shook his head and said, "Let's put it aside in advance." ”
Tang Ning smiled: "If you two are willing to come, the apprentice will go home tomorrow and find a craftsman to go to the house first, and when the house is finished, you two will move in directly."
It just so happens that if the master has nothing to do these days, you can also come to see the drawings, meet the craftsmen, and ask them to build the house according to your ideas. ”
So Shi Niang looked at Zhou Huai again.
Zhou Huai nodded and said, "Then let's do it!" ”
After being full of wine and food, everyone returned to the Tang Mansion. Now that Qi Xianyu has already appeared, he can naturally go back to the Tang family directly.
Tang Ning was very happy today, he saw his daughter again, and the master chose a word for himself again. So when I was eating at Zhou's Mansion just now, I drank more wine with Master.
Now he was a little confused, and he was carried on and off the carriage by Wang Shi all the way.
After returning to the Tang Mansion, Wang Shi first sent Tang Ning to lie in the house, and after he came back, he began to introduce Qi Xianyu and the eldest daughter of the Tang family, Tang Yu.
Tang Yu had never seen so many people before, and nervously grabbed his mother's clothes and refused to let them go.
When Senior Brother He Guan leaned over with a lame smile, Tang Yu burst into tears.
Tang Yu looks very exquisite, Qi Xianyu's beauty is needless to say, and Tang Ning is not an ugly person. The child born by the two is naturally a beautiful embryo.
Therefore, Tang Yu cried, which made everyone present feel distressed, especially
Aunt Niu, Mrs. Wang, their motherly love is overflowing.
Poor He Guantang, the eldest disciple of the Stealing Sect, after the death of the master, he was promoted to the head of the Stealing Sect, and he was punched and kicked by Wang Po because he was scared to cry a child.
Lying on the bed, Tang Ning didn't know anything about this, his heart was full of happiness, and he slept until dawn the next day, which may be the most fragrant sleep he had in so many years.
Wang Shi still got up earlier than himself, so after Tang Ning got up, his surroundings were empty, but there was a faint fragrance in the air.
Sitting up and rubbing his messy hair, Downing smiled when he saw a delicate little puppet on the dresser. Picking up the clothes that Wang Shi put on the chair on the side and changing them, Tang Ning simply tied a ponytail and went out.
In October, the cool weather slowly turns cold.
Fortunately, the clothes that Wang Shi prepared for Tang Ning were very thick, and when he pushed the door open, a gust of cold wind hit, which made Tang Ning shiver involuntarily.
Everyone didn't seem to be at home, and after asking the servant woman, I learned that it was Wang Shi who took everyone to go shopping together, saying that he wanted to choose a gift for the eldest girl. Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart What kind of street are you shopping early in the morning? When I looked up, I saw that the sun in the sky was almost in the right place.
With a sigh, Downing went to wash up.
Then I found something to eat while wandering around the house, and found that except for Lin Wei and the servant woman, everyone was really gone.
Tang Ning expressed helplessness in this regard, so many people go shopping together, how big is the battle?
There was nothing to do, and I remembered that I promised my master and mother yesterday to build a house on the side. So Tang Ning went out with Lin Wei, preparing to go into the city for a public trip.
After entering the city, Tang Ning found out what the four words villain Dezhi meant.
The plaque of the carpenter's shop, which was originally very simple, has been changed to a gilt font. The store has expanded to be two or three times larger than before, and there was originally a baked cake shop next to his house, which tasted good, and Tang Ning loved to eat it, but now it is gone.
Standing at the door, Tang Ning began to think that he was helping Gong Yihuan, did he help the wrong person?
There was a long queue at the door, and Tang Ning had to wait patiently here. Together with Lin Wei, I found an inn to store the horses, and then returned here to line up.
was in line, and I heard the two people in front of me whispering: "I heard that this Yang carpenter's thing, even the official family can't put it down." I don't know if it's true or not......"
"Oh man, it's lonely, isn't it? Let me tell you, this poplar carpenter is very powerful. He sent something to the official family, and after the official family used it, he not only loved it, but also gave him a surname, do you know what this surname is? ”
"I don't know, tell me about it!"
"Gong loses! The public loss of the public loss class! It made a bird that could fly in the sky for three days!
Think about it, how much skill does this have to be for the official family to give him this surname? ”
