Last night, a messenger from Zhejiang sent a letter from home, there were dozens of thick ones, Tang Yi carefully unfolded it, and the familiar font jumped on the paper.

"Tang Yi'er saw the letter like a meeting: I am glad that my son is even in the middle school, and I am very happy for my father, with my son's talent, I concentrate on studying, Sanyuan High School, but I am ...... between the palms"

As soon as he read the first paragraph, Tang Yi almost sprayed, and said that it would be okay if others praised it, what kind of coaxing did Dad follow, I don't know how many bowls of dry rice I eat?

To be honest, Tang Yi felt that even the two yuan were a bit high-profile.

It's not that Tang Yi is modest, but he is self-aware, and with his activity energy, it is not a big trouble to make a second-class front. After all, there are several dark horses in each subject, and no one else can say anything.

But once it's too high-profile and becomes the target of public criticism, take a magnifying glass to test you, and find fault with it, and then if you want to operate, it will be even more difficult.

Of course, Tang Yi also understands that Dad is overjoyed, so let's look down.

Dad really calmed down a lot next, he told Tang Yi not to be proud, you must know that there are people outside the world, you have to study hard, and ask Mr. Wenchang for advice. He also said that he shouldn't have disturbed my son's study, but some things were unhappy.

“…… Since last year, the township warrior training has passed half a year, and his father selected 7,500 township warriors from the land of eastern Zhejiang. He also prepared to build an ordnance workshop, and by May, he had already made 200 bird guns and 500 three-eyed guns. The soldiers trained hard in the battle formation, and the firecrackers were eager to fight...... However, the governor Zhang Jing believed in the wolf soldiers and sneered at the villagers. For his father, he has the heart to serve the country and kill the enemy, but he has no room to show it. The only way to spend time is to drink all day and spend ......"

Looking at the old dad indignant. chattering and complaining, Tang Yi saw his sad face writing a letter under the lamp, and unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that Daddy is a little idle, Zhang Jing doesn't need you, the child uses you!"

Tang Yi put away his father's letter. Immediately picked up the pen, he wrote about the things in Suzhou, and then wrote a few tasks for his father, and then sealed them with lacquer and sent them out overnight.

Even if Dad is reinforcing all the way, whether to launch it or not depends on how far the situation has come. After taking a nap, it was already dawn, and Tang Yi didn't sleep much. Instead, he immediately freshened up, and then took Xu Wei and Shen Lin to the street.

Comparatively speaking, although he was tired of shopping with Wang Yueying, Tang Yi was willing, but he was impatient with Xu Wei and Shen Lin.

Xu Wei, this guy is becoming more and more unreliable, and when he saw someone selling tiger head shoes and rattles, he actually bought them. Then a serious book was stuffed to Tang Yi.

"Take it, it's for my godson!"

"Phew. Xu Wenchang, you take advantage of less, when will I become your godson? ”

Xu Wei rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "You? I don't want to accept it, it's annoying! ”

"Wow, you made it clear to me. Otherwise, I will write to my aunt and ask her to clean you up. ”

mentioned the old lady, Xu Wei was honest, and said obediently: "I think you and Miss Wang are almost the same, just by virtue of our relationship." Your son recognizes me as a godfather, and there's nothing wrong with that, right? ”

"That's just as well." Tang Yi said with a calm face: "I haven't officially given the dowry yet, and the wedding date has not been booked, as for the children, it is even farther away, and it may not be boys and girls, why are you in a hurry?" ”

Xu Wei lowered his voice and said in Tang Yi's ear: "I heard that your old mother-in-law hasn't let go yet, so it's better to make a first move, fry the raw rice and mature rice, and my godfather can take office quickly." ”

I still wanted to say it, but I saw that Tang Yi's face became iron-blue, and when he was on the verge of a seizure, Xu Wei pulled Shen Lin up and ran away.

"I'm going to buy food for the kids, see you later!"

……

Xu Wei shook and disappeared from the crowd, Tang Yi was left alone, wandering between the shops, whether it was big or small, or what it was selling, Tang Yi had to go and see, and he had to talk to the shopkeeper and the guy.

He has always believed that many intuitive sensations are often closer to reality than numbers. After walking in a circle, Tang Yi came to a very fatal conclusion, everything in Suzhou City has risen.

For example, five years ago, cotton cloth, which was used most by the common people, was only two taels of silver a horse, which was only slightly more expensive than the price of grain. But then the cotton cloth has entered the fast lane of price increases, and the latest price has exceeded five taels, and some of the good quality has reached six taels.

It has tripled in five years, which is far beyond the capacity of most ordinary people.

When many people get married, they can't afford to make new bedding, forcing the old mother to shake up the spinning wheel that has not been used for many years to weave cotton cloth for her son.

Another example is meat, which has more than doubled, and the braised pork in restaurants is getting smaller and smaller, and the amount is getting smaller and smaller.

All this has already indicated that the crisis has begun, but everyone is unaware of it, and they are immersed in the illusion of ticket appreciation and wealth growth, and cannot extricate themselves.

In the final analysis, the ticket is a piece of paper, and only the papermaking and printing industry can be driven.

It's like Celcombank, no matter how much zero you write, it's a bundle of dollars!

Sooner or later, the people of Suzhou will wake up one day, but I don't know how many people will be able to see that day.

Tang Yi was suddenly very annoyed, he lowered his head, passed by a tavern, and saw someone beckoning inside, it was Xu Wei and Shen Lin, with a few side dishes in front of him. Tang Yi was angry, and when he walked in, he was about to have a seizure. Xu Wei hurriedly preemptively said: "Mr. Hengshan, this is Tang Yi, Tang Xingzhi, Mr. Jing Chuan's high feet, the head of the current science and government test." ”

Sitting opposite Xu Wei, there was an old man with white hair, this person was very rich, kind and kind-eyed, although his face was old, but his spirit was sufficient, he looked Tang Yi up and down, and couldn't help but admire.

"Oh, the old man thought that after Tang Yin's death, there was no such person in the world, but I didn't expect Xiaoyou's demeanor to be far above Bohu, it's really the back waves of the Yangtze River pushing the front waves, old, old!"

Tang Yi was stunned, and Xu Wei introduced: "Okay, this is Wen Zhengming, Mr. Hengshan, a world-famous talent, poetry, calligraphy, literature and painting, the world's four uniques!" ”

When the old man heard Xu Wei's words, he waved his hand again and again.

"Xu Wenchang, don't entertain the old man, what kind of talent, it's the old coffin skin, the loess is buried up to the neck, just wait for another spade, so that you can go to the Lord of Yama to report!"

Tang Yi didn't listen to a word of the old man's words, he only heard Wen Zhengming, God, isn't this one of the four great talents in Jiangnan? The other three did not live long and died early, but Wen Zheng will be over eighty next year, deaf and blind, can write all day long, tireless, and is simply a fairy-like character.

Seeing the idol of his previous life, the unhappiness just now was swept away, and Tang Yi hurriedly gave Wen Zhengming a gift.

"I will meet Mr. Hengshan in my later life, and I wish Mr. a long and auspicious life and good luck in everything."

"You can really talk, you are much more easy-going than Jing Chuan." Wen Zhengming casually untied a string of Bodhi seeds from his wrist, each of which was polished ruddy and glowing, and sent it to Tang Yi's hands.

"The bad old man has been playing with it for more than ten years, don't be too light!"

"How dare you!" Tang Yi took out a handkerchief, carefully wrapped it, put it in his arms, and said with a smile: "I'm going to hide it, if others know that this is Mr. Hengshan's thing, I'm afraid it will attract countless people to rob it." ”

Wen Zhengming liked Tang Yi's straightforwardness very much, and he smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face opened.

"The old man's things are not worth grabbing, and now everyone is grabbing coupons and food!"

The old gentleman also mentioned the coupon, and Tang Yi suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Mr. Hengshan, did you buy the coupon too?" ”

Wen Zhengming smiled and shook his head, "Take off your shoes and socks today, I don't know if you will wear them in the future." Money is not even a floating cloud for the old man. At present, the old man is just buying some food and vegetables every day, which is enough for the family to eat. I have nothing to do to write, play with flowers and plants, and raise two little yellow finch, which sounds good when I whistle! ”

The old gentleman was full of interest and talked about his experience in raising birds, and he kept talking. It can be seen that Mr. Wen has been beautiful and lost, and he has failed to participate in the township test ten times. In the second year of Jiajing, the fifty-four-year-old Wen Zhengming was recommended as a tribute student, entered the capital, and was selected as the lowest edict of the Hanlin Academy. After four years of eunuch travel, the old gentleman saw through the officialdom and returned to Suzhou to live in seclusion.

In the speech, the serenity and chic are simply fascinating.

Tang Yi knew that he would not want to cultivate to the realm of others in his life, so he proposed: "Mr. Hengshan, go buy some rice, noodles and vegetables in your later life, send you home, and pay tribute to the old man's ink treasure by the way, I don't know if you have this blessing in your later life?" ”

"Hehe, Xingzhi is too polite, the old man has long heard that Xu Wenchang and Tang Xingzhi are both great talents in the world, Wenchang's talent The old man has already seen it, how much ability he has to do it, the old man is not clear, and he wants to take a good look. It's just ......"

"What's wrong with the old gentleman?"

Wen Zhengming smiled, "It's not difficult, the old man went around the grain store and vegetable market, and the grain rose by more than one percent compared to yesterday, and the old man was angry and didn't buy anything." It's strange to say, food prices have risen and fallen all their lives, but in the past few years, they have always risen and not fallen, do you know what's going on? ”

The old gentleman really asked the right person, Tang Yi groaned, didn't say much, but dipped his fingers in the water and wrote a coupon on the table.

Wen Zhengming has reached the situation where the old eyes are empty of the world, thought about it for a while, and sighed: "The moon has defects and flowers have withered, and the way of heaven is not complete, how can there be a reason for longevity." ”

"Mr. Gaojian, I will send you half a year's worth of food when I am late in life, which is enough to eat until it disappears."

"Half a year, that's embarrassing."

Xu Wei hurriedly said: "Mr. Hengshan, it is natural for a big family to eat. ”

"Hahaha, Wen Chang, the mouth of eating people is short, and the old man is not fooled. In this way, the food will be sent, and the old man will give Xingzhi a few Buddhist scriptures copied by his own hands, which will be offset. ”

Tang Yi said embarrassedly: "Mr. Hengshan's Mobao is invaluable, isn't it a good idea to be born later?" ”

"Huh." Wen Zhengming sighed and smiled: "In the year of chaos, a bucket of rice is worth gold, maybe the old man took advantage of it!" (To be continued.) )
