"How are you?"

Cui Geng's sudden appearance shocked Cao Yuechan, who was quietly making tea by the stream.

"Why can't it be me?" Cui Geng shrugged, smiled, and walked over.

At this time, the old lady Tong also found that there were guests in the bamboo forest, stood up from the stream stone, walked to the shore with bare feet and stepped on the water, sat on the ground and waved with a smile: "Haha, everyone who comes is a guest, young man and sit, and drink tea together." ”

Where is this old Confucian who is rich and respected, he is simply a free and uninhibited old man!

Cui Geng sighed heartily again in his heart.

Then he found a big stone covered with bamboo leaves, sat down next to the place where Cao Yuechan made tea, and praised Tong Benshan: "Cui Geng, the junior Qingyuan County Lieutenant, took the liberty to visit today, and I hope the old lady will not blame it!" ”

As soon as he heard Cui Geng's self-report, the old lady Tong did not stand up like a commoner saw the official, but continued to sit calmly, but a slight surprise appeared on his smiling face, and said, "It turns out that you are Qingyuan Cui Erlang?" ”

Cui Geng asked curiously, "The old lady also knows the junior?" ”

"A while ago, I heard that there is a Cui Erlang in the Cui family, who brews Mulan spring wine, which is hard to find in a cup of priceless and marketable, and has a reputation for imperial wine, and the limelight is unmatched in Qingyuan City for a while, and it is difficult for the old man to think about it."

Tong Benshan pulled the silver hair that was scattered all over his head, and put it behind him very familiarly, and actually gave birth to a bit of dusty rhyme, and then continued: "Besides, the place where Qingyuan County is a little bigger, has actually been promoted to Shangxian County, and there is also a young county lieutenant, plus someone makes noise in the old man's ears every once in a while, hehe......"

Tong Benshan laughed dryly, and his eyes fell on Cao Yuechan, who seemed to be quietly brewing tea, but was actually listening.

Cao Yuechan listened, and was looked at by the old lady with such a strange gaze, and she was a little flustered, glared at Tong Benshan with disgust, and looked away from herself, like a little girl next door who did something wrong and was seen through by the elders.

Hey?

Cui Geng looked at Cao Yuechan in astonishment, in his impression, this little beauty has always been an extremely strong careerist, and it is the first time he has seen this kind of little daughter today, which is a bit rare.

Tong Benshan picked up the tea cup in front of him, put it to his mouth and took two sips, looked at Cui Geng and said, "Okay, Cui County Lieutenant must also know the old man, a closed disciple, right?" ”

Ask while knowing the answer.

Cui Geng bowed his head slightly and said, "I've dealt with Miss Cao a few times, and I can talk about it." ”

"The devil can talk to you." Cao Yuechan snorted softly, brought the freshly brewed cup of tea soup to Cui Geng, and turned around to ignore it.

Cui Geng laughed twice, knowing that this girl was still jealous of herself for the previous cooperation with Yinhao, and she no longer theorized. However, listening to what Tong Benshan said just now, it seems that Cao Yuechan is still a closed disciple of Old Man Tong, which is a new thing. Because he knew that Tong Benshan was old, he had long stopped accepting students to teach, and basically opened the museum to accept apprentices and went out to serve as Mr. Xixi, which were all taken care of by his four sons. Cao Yuechan can become Tong Benshan's closed disciple as a female streamer, and she and he are both businessmen, why?

No wonder Yao Du said yesterday that Tong Benshan is an outlier in Confucianism, in his eyes, there is no class, there is no distinction between three religions and nine streams, today it may be a monk Daoni, tomorrow it may be a beggar pawn, all of them can become guests of Tong's mansion.

Such a person accepts the daughter of the owner of a wine shop as a closed disciple, and if you think about it carefully, you don't think it's strange.

"County Lieutenant Cui, please make tea!"

Tong Benshan slowly put down the tea cup in his hand, greeted him with a smile, and after seeing Cui Gengqian taste two sips of tea soup, he asked with a smile: "The old man has never had any contact with the government, I don't know what happened to the county lieutenant Cui looking for the old man today?" ”

Cui Geng also put down the tea cup in his hand, stood up with his hands, and praised him: "Today, the younger generation came to visit the door, and I invited the old lady to go out of the mountain!" ”

"Out of the mountains? Which door is out of the mountain? Tong Benshan was a little incomprehensible.

Cui Geng did not delay, and hurriedly told the story of revitalizing the county school.

He said to himself that he didn't pay attention, but Cao Yuechan found that the teacher's face became a little unnatural, and the last touch of displeasure appeared on his face.

During this period, she coughed twice, as if to remind Cui Geng. But this damn Cui Erlang said to himself, there was no bird for her at all.

After Cui Geng finished speaking, the old lady Tong even changed the tone of his voice: "County Lieutenant Cui shouldn't know the past of Tong Mansion, right?" Why, this is what you are visiting today? I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person! ”

Who knew that Cui Geng was not surprised by Tong Benshan's attitude at all, and said calmly: "Don't refuse the old lady first, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Tong Benshan waved his hand and replied with a cold expression: "Don't waste your tongue in vain, and you don't need to take a step to speak, it is impossible for the old man to be the Xuezheng and let the children of my Tong family serve as the instructor!" ”

The attitude is resolute, looking at this posture, there is no negotiation.

Cui Geng was not discouraged, he still smiled indifferently, and said in a low voice: "In the ninth year of Zhenguan, the feat of making the Duke of Zun Xiuyuan sacrifice his life for righteousness has also been heard by the younger generations. The name of loyalty and righteousness of Xiuyuan, the admiration of the younger generation from the bottom of their hearts. But to this day, the old lady has not understood what loyalty is and what righteousness is? ”

"Huangkou Xiaoer, it's not your turn to teach the old man what loyalty is!" Tong Benshan stood up abruptly and reprimanded with a dark face, "A businessman-born Jiupin County Lieutenant, really think that the old man is afraid of you?" ”

"No, no, no, the old lady misunderstood, if you want to come to Tong Mansion to show off your authority, why do you need to travel in civilian clothes?"

Cui Geng was not angry at all at all, Tong Benshan talked about his background, but shamelessly excused himself for not wearing an official uniform, and said with a full bearing: "The younger generation still wants to take a step to speak." If you miss this opportunity, a hundred years later, I am afraid that the old lady will not be able to face the Xiuyuan Gong under Jiuquan again! ”

"Bastard! What a big breath! ”

What kind of identity does Tong Benshan have among the scholars in Qingyuan County and even Quanzhou Prefecture? Today, he was belittled and even reprimanded by Cui Geng, no matter how good his cultivation is, no matter how great his elegance is, he can't hold his own identity.

I saw him raise his hand and point to a bamboo hut less than twenty steps away, and scolded: "Go, you have to borrow a step to speak, and the old man will fulfill you!" When you get to the bamboo house, if you can't tell that you are ugly, don't blame the old man for being unkind to you. County Lieutenant Cui, don't think that you, the county lieutenant of Qingyuan, can speak freely, although the old man is white, he also has a way to rectify you! ”

Believe, Cui Gengzhen believes that the old man Tong has this ability.

Tong Mansion is full of peach and plum all over the world, not to mention the entire Quanzhou Mansion, it is to mobilize the students of the entire Qingyuan County to slander and resist him, the lieutenant of Qingyuan County, and it is also a matter of mouth.

Tong Benshan was furious, and took the first step to raise his feet and went to the bamboo house.

Cui Geng followed.

Cao Yuechan watched the two of them enter the bamboo house one after the other, thinking that Cui Geng's words just now were not ashamed to anger his respected teacher, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh secretly, this damn stupid person, isn't he quite able to talk about it on weekdays, how can he be stupid today? On weekdays, so many people with smart ideas can say something that makes the teacher angry?

Although she doesn't often study by Tong Xiuyuan's side, she knows her old teacher too well over the years, and the matter of the late Xiuyuan Gong is forbidden to talk about in Tong's mansion on weekdays, not to mention asking the teacher to serve the county government and the imperial court, and serve as a scholar to teach and assist talents in the imperial examination.

It is difficult to ask the teacher to go out of the mountain!

No, it's not difficult, it's impossible!

Cao Yuechan shook her head slightly, obviously sentenced Cui Geng to death for today's trip.

……

"Puff puff puff~"

Another cup of tea soup is boiling.

Cao Yuechan calculated, the two of them already had a cup of tea when they entered the bamboo house, and wondered in their hearts, strange, they haven't talked about it yet, could it be that this surnamed Cui really has some tricks to persuade the teacher?

Just when she was secretly wondering, suddenly a voice from the bamboo house came from Ruohong Zhong's voice: "Is this true? ”

She could hear it as her teacher's voice, and she was very excited.

Immediately afterwards, it was Cui Erlang's reply to Tuk: "Seriously! ”

"How dare you count?" It was Tong Benshan's excited voice again.

"Count!" Cui Gengdao.

"How long is the near future, you have to give me a deadline." Old lady Tong was so excited that she couldn't get any more.

"Twenty years!" Cui Gengdao.

"No, no, it's been too long, and in twenty years, the old man will have turned into a cup of loess, and I won't see that day!"

"Ten years?"

"It's still too long, and the old man doesn't know if he can make it to that day. Two years, after two years you have to keep your promise! ”

"Two years? Are you old man teasing me? Five years, at least five years! ”

"Okay, it's up to you!"

"Damn, that's such a refreshing answer? Are you waiting for me here? ”

"Haha, boy, play with your heart's eyes, you're still a little tender!"

"The thing that the county learns ......"

"Don't worry, when it comes to learning the orthodox teachings, Tong Fu will come forward. At that time, if there are celebrities who come to Qingyuan to study, the old man will come forward. However, the salary is monthly silver, and not a penny is missing! Qingyuan County is notoriously picky and poor! ”

"Uh...... This junior will figure it out on his own. ”

Soon, an old man and a young man who were still tense just now walked out of the bamboo house, and there were talking and laughing in the streamside tea house all the way, as if a pair of friends who had a good relationship!

Now that this matter is over, Cui Geng has no need to continue to stay, the revitalization of the county school has only completed a small step at present, and there are still a lot of things ahead, he must hurry up. Otherwise, if you continue to drag on, you will inevitably be caught by Hu Zeyi and Song Wen's two thieves to find trouble.

Then, he said goodbye, left the bamboo forest first, and went straight to the gate of Tong's mansion.

Seeing Cui Geng leaving, Cao Yuechan, who was still confused, looked at the dashing back of this guy in a daze, and asked Tong Benshan: "Teacher, what did he tell you, your old man can go out of the mountain to act as the county school for him?" ”

Tong Benshan was holding the tea soup like an old child at this time, shaking his head and saying: "This matter, don't say it, don't say it." ”

Cao Yuechan pursed her mouth and said unhappily: "What's the big deal, hum, I'm going home too." Cook the tea soup yourself! ”

Angry, get up and go.

Tong Benshan stroked his forehead and said hurriedly: "Hey, girl, didn't you say today that you want the old man to come up with an idea for you about the silver number?" ”

"Hmph, I think it's better to forget it!"

Cao Yuechan didn't mean to stay, she gently patted the bamboo leaves that fell on her body, and said, "Your old man has become his subordinate, what else do I ask you for?" I'd better ask for more blessings! ”

Soon, Cao Yuechan followed Cui Geng's back and shuttled through the bamboo forest with brisk steps, and faintly said: "Teacher, Chan'er will come over another day to help you make tea......

"Hehe, naughty girl!"

Looking at Cao Yuechan's graceful figure disappearing in the bamboo forest, Tong Benshan smiled lightly, took a sip of the tea soup that was still warm, and said comfortably: "If this kid can really fulfill the old man's long-cherished wish, he will die blindly!" ”
