Chapter 602 It is not easy to learn that it is not easy to get a good talent and a beautiful jade, and a good son-in-law to become a pair

Tonight, Yang Rong stayed in the cabinet room, and Jin Youzi was summoned to the Qianqing Palace, so Yang Shiqi and Du Zhen came out together. When the two of them left the gate of Chang'an, they saw Zhang Yue Wanshijie and Yang Ji who were talking over there, and found that none of them saw their two, so Du Zhen looked sideways at Yang Shiqi.

"Brother Shiqi, you are right to take your wife and children to Beijing. Ling Lang is only controlled by his mother in Taihe, and he is married and has children, so even his sister-in-law is not too strict. Now that you have arrived in Jingshi, your weekday lessons and so on are cheap, if you can have a few more friends at that time, even if you may not be successful in studying, but at least it is the right way, and the Yang family will not have to worry about it in the future. Besides, Mrs. Sister-in-law and you have been separated for many years, and now the reunion can also be comforting. ”

Yang Shiqi looked at his son and Zhang Yue from a distance and talked and laughed happily, and felt very relieved in his heart. His wife was not in good health, and he was sick after going to Beijing, plus Yang Ji couldn't sit still by nature, and he didn't study well at home at all, he even regretted his previous decision, but now when he heard Du Zhen say this, his brows stretched.

Du Zhen traveled all over the world in the past, and he was only away from home for ten years, but he Yang Shiqi has been away from his hometown for more than 20 years since he was recommended as an official, and he owes a lot to his wife. Now that the husband and wife are reunited, even if she is weak, she has a smile on her face all the time. If this can really motivate her son to improve, she must be the happiest one.

Standing in place and stopping for a moment, he remembered a big event, and couldn't help but gently stroke his chin and beard, because he smiled: "Yishan, there is something I forgot to tell you." Last night, Wanshijie came to the door to beg me, saying that he asked me to come to the door to propose marriage to your righteous daughter. You're really lucky, and you've got all the good sons-in-law to pick them up! Although Shijie's family is poor, he is the most open-minded and motivated, since he took the Jinshi exam, many people have beaten his idea, but he rejected them all, and in the end it is still cheaper for you! ”

Although it was expected, when he heard the word "marriage" from Yang Shiqi's mouth, Du Zhen's eyes still showed a strange light, and he smiled instead: "What is cheap for me, if it weren't for my Du family's fair lady, where would the gentleman come from?" What are you staring at me for, am I wrong? ”

Since the Hanlin Academy, Yang Shiqi has always felt that Du Zhen's face is cold and warm, but he has never heard him say such a thing, and he doesn't know what expression to show at this time, and he sighed for a while in his heart, and at the same time regretted it. Although the emperor praised him for being public and selfless, he was not a saint, and the reason why he did not reunite his family was also selfish. The Yang family used to be a Taihe clan, but after all, he had been in decline for many years, and if he wanted to re-establish the clan, he had to stand firm in the imperial court and not be distracted at will.

However, Du Zhen has only one daughter and a righteous daughter, but he has two good sons-in-law, and together they may not be able to withstand one son; But now he has only one son, if this son is not angry, won't his life's struggles be in vain?

"Father-in-law, Mr. Tozato!"

couldn't stand Yang Ji's verbosity, Zhang Yue couldn't help but look left and right, but happened to see Yang Shiqi and Du Zhen walking this way, and hurriedly took the opportunity to interrupt Yang Ji's words, and turned around and saluted. As soon as he spoke, the other two people also reacted, and they hurriedly stepped forward. After the two sides met, Yang Shiqi did not hold up Yan's father's frame to teach his son a lesson, but only glanced at Yang Ji meaningfully, and said a few words to Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie, and then got in the car and left. And the carriage that the Du family came to pick up here had also arrived, Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie simply accompanied Du Zhen to get into the carriage together, and tied the two horses to the back of the carriage and drove slowly.

"Shijie, Brother Shiqi has already told me about you just now. In this way, Xiao Wu has already convinced you, but you are not simple. Although she is not my biological child, Wan'er has always regarded her as a sister-in-law, and our husband and wife also like her temperament. Now that I can entrust you with such a reliable person, I have nothing to worry about. ”

The single name of the Wanshi Festival is Jun, and the word is from Yang Shiqi, so it is also the same as Yang Shiqi in the world. At this time, he couldn't help but be extremely happy when he heard Du Zhen's title more familiar and cordial than usual, but in the end, he gradually lost his mind. It wasn't until Zhang Yue next to him pushed him angrily that he reacted

"Uncle Du, I am alone, I have no savings and property, I can't do much glory in my marriage, and I can't promise a better future in the future. I have no other relatives, I only hope that I can be filial to your second elder with Xiao Wu in the future. ”

In life, having no children under your knees is always a pity in the eyes of others. Although Du Zhen didn't pay attention to this, he always saw Qiu's gloom. At this time, when he heard Wan Shijie say this, he couldn't help but feel very pleased, so he nodded: "This marrying a daughter is not selling a daughter, what kind of dowry is just four words like doing what you can." When I first married Wan'er, I tried my best to marry because I didn't expect to have one more daughter in my life. After that, if it weren't for the Yuan Festival, my mother-in-law coaxed your mother-in-law to buy shares in a few shops and buy some land, I would be poor and poor now! ”

The meager fortune of the Ming Dynasty is unprecedented since ancient times, and it was originally a hard currency such as white rice, but gradually it became a variety of folded colors, among which, the treasure banknote is almost like waste paper. Just like the Zhang family got the emperor's permission to go back to bury the Gu family this time, they got a total of thousands of ingots, because it is a new banknote, the exchange price on the market is about 80 ingots for 1,000 yuan, which is about more than 100 copper coins, and about 100 taels of silver. It's all this money, or because Zhang You, the earl, is a super product, otherwise the income of ordinary officials is not even enough for the travel expenses.

Therefore, it has been five years since he was out of office, but due to the great changes in his family when he was young, he spent all his savings when he traveled, and he saved some money in the first three years because of the food and accommodation provided by the imperial court, and these were all taken by Zhang Yue to help him manage his finances, and the money around him was only enough for daily expenses. Therefore, although Du Zhen claims to be poor, in his opinion, he is the real poor, so although he feels relieved at this time, he still can't help but feel a little worried.

Although the husband and wife have celebrated their birthdays every year since they were reunited, Qiu was the happiest on this year's birthday. Du Juan brought her grandson and granddaughter over to pay her birthday, and Du Zhen told her that Yang Shiqi would be invited to propose marriage in a few days during the Wanshi Festival, so she smiled from beginning to end, and felt more and more that her first half of her life was worth it.

This birthday feast is different from inside and outside, after today's birthday greeting, Du Zhen took Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie to the flower hall outside, and actually changed the temper that has never been a drop of wine, and pulled them to drink two pots of Fen wine, and finally half drunk actually sang Li Bai's "Drinking Alone Under the Moon". Not to mention that Zhang Yue has been with him for so many years, he has never seen such a scene, that is, he has often found excuses to visit him for more than a year, and he has never seen Du Zhen's side, so a pair of quasi-brothers-in-law can't help but panic.

"In ancient times, there were many sages, and the sages of Confucius had three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages. I can get good talents and beautiful jade in my life, and I can get a good son-in-law in pairs, and I have no regrets! Although his face was already flushed, Du Zhen still only had a faint smile on his face, and casually held Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie's hands together, and then whispered, "However, in life, it is not easy to get a confidant, although there are not many people who have friends in my life, but there are people who want to know each other first, and then there are Shiqi brothers who know each other, and there are no regrets." The two of you have been friends for many years, and no matter what the circumstances are in the future, don't forget the original love. ”

Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie glanced at each other, and then agreed together. However, although it was the first time he was drunk in front of his juniors, Du Zhen still had excellent wine, and by the time the two of them helped him into the inner courtyard, he was already asleep in a daze. Qiu, who was busy teasing a pair of grandsons, learned about the situation outside from Zhang Yue's mouth, and couldn't help but shake his head again and again.

Zhang Luo waited for Du Zhen to lie down in the back room, and ordered a girl to guard beside him, Qiu Shi immediately opened the curtain and came out, and smiled at Zhang Yue and Wan Shijie, who were full of embarrassment: "The old man is crazy about youth, he has never let go of it a few times in his life, and he can't imagine that he will be so happy to drink at his age!" I remember when he was young, he sat down with Xiao Shen to talk about literature, and when he was happy to talk, he used rice wine as water and got drunk. At that time, I was across a wall, listening to the two of them drunk and writing poems, and you came and went, until they were both drunk. By the way, do you remember that manuscript I had at the beginning? ”

Du Juan didn't expect her mother to suddenly mention this, and she was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized, and the expression on her face was so strange: "What my mother said was the one that taught me to write when I was a child?" The strange way is that between the lines, what white jade cup, what kind of bright moon and clear breeze confidant and other sour words, it turned out that Dad and Uncle Xiao Shen were drunk and chanting? ”

"You say it's sour now, but it took me a lot of effort to write it all down." Qiu Shiwan smiled, and his always kind face showed a little childlike cunning, "At that time, your father had already been promoted, and your little Uncle Shen was planning to take the Xiucai exam, and the two of them probably didn't know that these poems actually let me memorize them...... I've been with your father for so many years, and I wasn't around when he was famous for his poetry in the Hanlin Academy, and those poems were all told by others, but they weren't as good as that drunkenness...... It's been more than 20 years, and you're all the bosses in a flash, and even Xiao Wu is going to get married! ”

"Mother!"

Seeing Xiao Wuyi stomping his feet, Qiu Shi took her in his arms with a smile, Zhang Yue couldn't help but glance at Wanshijie, who was slightly red, but laughed in a low voice: "I can't imagine that my father-in-law also has such a youthful spirit, and I will have a drunken poem with Ming'er?" ”

"you, you guy was as boring as a little adult when he wasn't very old, and now it's even more boring!" Wan Shijie pursed his lips angrily, and then his face was full of longing, "Bachelor Da Shen taught his father-in-law, and his father-in-law taught Bachelor Xiao Shen, this is really a good story." Speaking of which, Xiao Fang was trained by me and Xiao Xia hand in hand, and your little four also got a lot of mentions from you, and several of them are going to participate in the township test this year, and when they are named on the gold list, we can be regarded as half a teacher! When the time comes, we can also learn from our father-in-law and teach him a good talent! ”
