Chapter 801 Mr.
Counting nine days of cold, frozen snow, the whole world turned silvery white. The mountain was trembling coldly, the river was frozen and stiff, and the air seemed to be freezing.
Yuxi put on a fiery red mink fur cloak, but she still shivered when she went out. Yuxi said: "This winter is much colder than last year."
Yun Qing hummed and said: "It's colder than last year. Fortunately, we have all the supplies for the winter, and the soldiers will not be cold." This year, 400,000 sets of down jackets have been made. These clothes are light and warm to wear on the body. Very much liked by the soldiers. Even Yunqing has two sets.
Yu Xi looked at Yun Qing speechlessly, and said: "Why do you only care about soldiers and the people don't care about them?" In Yun Qing's mind, soldiers are the most important, and the people are often ignored by him. It has been almost ten years since Yunqing's point of view has not changed, and Yuxi has convinced him a little.
Yun Qing said with a little embarrassment: "Isn't there still you here?" He really just said it casually just now.
Yu Xi knew that it was pointless to argue with Yun Qing, and said, "Take it easy when you get to the training ground, don't be too harsh."
In the cold weather, there was no war at the border, and there was nothing wrong with the army, so Yunqing began to teach a few children how to do archery a few days ago. Yunqing's archery skills are very good, it can be said that he can hit every shot, much better than Master Dou. This action made the four brothers admire even more, especially Brother Rui's proud expression made Yuxi find it funny when he opened his mouth now.
Yun Qing said: "Yesterday was an accident, and today it probably won't happen." Brother Xuan fell and hurt his arm yesterday, but fortunately the injury is not serious.
The husband and wife talked for a while, and then they separated to do their own things.
At noon, Yun Qing saw Yu Xi's face was full of smiles, and asked: "But what's the good thing?"
Yuxi smiled and said: "I received a letter from my eldest brother, saying that he found a husband for Brother Hao and Brother Rui."
Yun Qing hurriedly asked: "Who are you looking for?" Yun Qing knew all about those great writers in Jiangnan.
If the candidate is not good, Yuxi will not be so happy. Yuxi said: "The gentleman I found for Brother Hao is Mr. Du Bozi, a famous writer all over the world, and the gentleman I found for Brother Rui is a man named Pang Jinglun."
Du Bo, who was the chief envoy from the second rank, was dismissed from office because he was involved in the struggle between the Song family and the Yu family. He was only forty-one years old at that time. After returning home, while teaching and educating people in Chongya Academy, he wrote books at home, and his reputation is far higher than that of Zhang Wang before.
Yun Qing said: "Du Boxin is willing to be Brother Hao's husband? How did the eldest brother understand him?" Yun Qing also went to invite Du Boxin, but unfortunately he was rejected.
Yuxi laughed and said: "Brother Hao showed Mr. Du a few articles written by Brother Hao, and Mr. Du agreed." Yunqing went with a hundred or so guards that day. This kind of big writer has a bad temper, even if he knew that Yunqing wanted to ask him to be a teacher, but seeing Yunqing's posture, he was very displeased, so naturally he was rejected.
Of course, this also has something to do with the situation at the time. After all, Yunqing just took over Yangzhou, and Mr. Du would not immediately agree to be Brother Hao's husband because of his own reputation. Now that the south of the Yangtze River is settled down, Mr. Du looks at the situation and thinks that Yunqing and Yuxi are likely to win the world, if so, Brother Hao will be the future emperor. He became Hao Ge'er's husband, but he is the future emperor's teacher. He may not enjoy the honor of emperor's teacher at his age, but he can shade his descendants. In addition, Brother Hao is indeed very talented, so Du Bozi agreed when Han Jianming visited for the second time. It's just that Yuxi won't tell Yunqing about this.
Yunqing said in disbelief: "So easy?" Seeing Yuxi nodding, Yunqing said happily: "Brother Hao will give me a face." My son is outstanding, and I am proud of being an old man!
Dubo Zinc is familiar with,
But he is not familiar with this Pang Jinglun. Yun Qing asked: "Who is this Pang Jinglun? I never heard of it when I was in Jiangnan?"
Since Han Jianming was able to invite this person to be the husband of Brother Rui and the others, he naturally had to find out the details of the other party first.
Yu Xi said: "This Pang Jinglun was the No. 1 scholar in Guangzong's 35th year, and he was only 20 years old that year." It is impossible for someone who is not talented and intelligent to be the No. under the environment.
Yun Qing asked with a groan: "Then what's special about him?" Yun Qing didn't know much about these scholars.
Yuxi hummed and said: "I stayed in the Imperial Academy for three years, and then I was assigned to the Ministry of Officials. However, this person is loose and doesn't like to be restrained. He only stayed in the Ministry of Officials for two years before resigning, and has been out of office since then. Traveling. The eldest brother said that this person is rich in education, and has been traveling abroad for many years, so he is very suitable to be a teacher for Brother Rui." To be so respected by Han Jianming shows that this person has real talents and real learning.
Yun Qing was a little strange, and asked: "Since he didn't want to be bound, why did he agree to be Mr. Rui and the others? Isn't this contradictory?"
It's not uncommon for Yuxi to talk about Yunqing: "Everyone has weaknesses, and the eldest brother has grasped his weaknesses so he naturally has to compromise. But he only promised to teach Brother Rui and them for six years."
Yun Qing asked curiously, "What weakness?" Han Jianming acted cautiously, and it was impossible for him to make threats to force the other party. After all, if the other party was not willing, they would not seriously teach Brother Rui and the others when they came.
Yuxi said: "His wife is seriously ill and lacks a medicine. The medicine is very precious, and ordinary people don't have it. Pang Jinglun knew that his elder brother had that medicine in his hand, so he asked his elder brother." Han Jianming took this opportunity to mention it. requested. For the sake of his wife Pang Jinglun, he had to compromise.
Yun Qing nodded: "He is kind and righteous."
Yu Xi smiled and said: "Pang Jinglun is willing to compromise, not just because of the medicine. These years, Pang Jinglun spent a lot of money traveling abroad, and the family life is very difficult. The youngest son is still unmarried because of this. Promise Being a teacher to the three Brother Rui brothers is also to improve the life of the family." In fact, Pang Jinglun agreed to be a teacher to the three Brother Rui brothers because of his guilt towards his family.
Yun Qing asked: "Then how much do we have to give him every year?" It's not cheap.
Yuxi smiled and said: "One thousand taels of silver a year, my eldest brother has already paid for us for six years of Shuxiu." With these six thousand taels of silver, it is enough for Pang Jinglun's family to live a prosperous life.
Yun Qing said in a low voice: "I have paid all the six years of Shuxiu? If I don't teach well, wouldn't it be a loss?" The two gentlemen who are teaching Brother Hao now pay five hundred taels a year for Shuxiu. If this person has real talents and can teach Brother Rui and the three brothers well, he is not expensive, but he might be a deceitful person.
Yuxi gave Yunqing a blank look: "You think the eldest brother is you, always doing unreliable things?" Compared with Yunqing, she believed in Han Jianming more.
Yun Qing felt very wronged, and said, "Since when have I done something unreliable?" Well, it seems that Liu's matter is not very reliable, and nothing else has gone wrong.
Yuxi didn't want to expose Yunqing's shortcoming: "Do you want me to list them one by one with you?" There are many unreliable things, and she has to deal with the aftermath in the end, but she never said it. Of course, the unreliable things that Yunqing did before were all trivial things.
Yunqing remained silent.
Before dinner in the evening, Yuxi told the four brothers Hao Geer and Rui Geer the news. Brother Hao heard what Yuxi said, and said: "Mother, if this Pang Jinglun is really as good as his uncle said, can he teach me then."
Yun Qing hurriedly said to Brother Hao: "Mr. Du is better than Pang Jinglun in terms of talent, learning, fame and experience."
Brother Hao has his own ideas: "I know that Mr. Du is very knowledgeable and knowledgeable. It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. I think that Mr. Du may not be as good as Mr. Pang in this regard."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Ah Hao is right, there must be my teacher when three of us go together. Mr. Du and Mr. Pang have their own strengths. It is a good thing that you want to learn from the two gentlemen. Mother promises you."
Upon seeing this, Brother Xuan said, "Mother, can we also learn from Mr. Du?"
Brother Rui hurriedly jumped out and said, "Ah Xuan, having Mr. Pang is enough. We still need to practice. How can we have so much time to learn from Mr. Du?"
Brother You is not interested in this Mr. Du either: "Mom, I just need to learn from Mr. Pang." The homework assigned by only one Mr. is enough, if there are two, he will not be tired to death!
Brother Xuan looked a little sad.
Yuxi smiled and said: "It's a good thing you want to learn from Mr. Du, but mother is worried that your health will not be able to bear it." Although the triplets did not learn as much as Brother Hao, they were not idle. Brother Ruoxuan still needs to learn from Mr. Du, so he may not be able to bear it by then.
Brother Xuan hesitated.
Yun Qing disliked Brother Xuan the most, he was indecisive and not straightforward. But now Yunqing's words are not as aggressive as before: "If Mr. Pang is really as good as your uncle said, it's enough for Mr. Pang to teach you. Ah Xuan, remember, you can't eat too much."
Brother Xuan lowered his head.
Seeing this, Yuxi pulled Brother Xuan to her side, gently touched his head and said, "Xuan'er, if you have something to say, just say it and don't keep it in your heart. Because if you don't say it, your parents won't know that you are real." idea."
Encouraged by Yu Xi, Brother Xuan finally plucked up the courage to say: "Mother, I want to learn from Mr., I don't want to practice martial arts." Brother Xuan doesn't like to practice martial arts. It's completely rushing the ducks to the shelves.
Yunqing's face immediately sank: "If you don't practice martial arts, what do you plan to do in the future?" Yunqing is a general, so he naturally hopes that his four children will inherit his mantle in the future. Before that, because of Brother Xuan's poor martial arts, he often murmured to Yuxi.
Brother Xuan was very afraid of Yunqing, seeing Yunqing's face turned pale with fright.
Yuxi patted Brother Xuan on the back while scolding Yunqing: "Why are you so fierce? The child can't tell the truth?"
Yun Qing didn't give in to Yu Xi this time: "That depends on what he's talking about?" If you don't practice martial arts, you won't succeed.
Zao Zao and Brother Hao looked at each other, and then they looked at each other. As for the other three, let alone talk.
Yuxi didn't want to quarrel with Yunqing in front of her children, so she said, "Eat first, we'll talk after we finish."
Seeing that Brother Xuan kept his head down to pick up the rice, and didn't dare to raise his head to pick up the vegetables, Yu Xi helplessly put a lot of vegetables into Brother Xuan's bowl: "It's just a few words, the sky won't fall." This kid's mental quality is really bad. It would be great if he could make peace with Brother Yu.
Brother Xuan looked at Yunqing carefully, and saw that Yunqing didn't even look at him, so he dared to eat.
This meal was eaten quietly. Brother Yu said to Yunqing and Yuxi after eating: "Father, I'm full, I'm going back to my room first." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Brother Xuan.
Brother Xuan quickly stripped away all the food in the bowl, put down the chopsticks and said: "Father, I'm full too." Then he went out with Brother Yu.
Afterwards, Zao Zao and Brother Hao also finished eating and left.
Brother Xuan's performance made Yunqing very angry. Afraid that Yuxi would scold him again, he had been holding back just now, and now that the child is not here, Yunqing didn't care about it: "What do you think is the matter with this child? Why are you so courageous?" It was just two words In a word, he didn't even dare to eat vegetables, just this kind of courage is not like his kind at all.
Yuxi said angrily: "You haven't heard that a dragon gave birth to nine sons, and the nine sons are different. Although brother Xuan is a little timid, he is obedient and obedient."
Yun Qing didn't back off now, and said, "What do boys want to be so obedient? I hope he is like Brother Yu." Although Brother Yu is stubborn, he is the most courageous of the triplets.
Before Yuxi could speak, Yunqing said in distress: "How can such a small courage lead troops to fight in the future? I'm worried that when he goes to the battlefield, he will pee his pants."
Yuxi was very angry when she heard this, and said, "Do you think so little of your son?" He said it as if Brother Xuan was a wimp.
Yun Qing put down his chopsticks and said, "Am I looking down on him? I was just too aggressive, and he was so scared that he didn't even dare to pick up the food? With such courage, he must be so scared that he would pee his pants on the battlefield." If he really peed his pants, his face would also be wiped clean by then.
Yu Xi didn't refute Yun Qing, but said: "It's not just the way of martial arts. Since Brother Xuan doesn't like martial arts, let him follow the text from now on."
Yunqing is unwilling: "How can it be done?" It is every parent's expectation to have a child become a dragon, and Yunqing is no exception.
Yu Xi glared at Yun Qing and said, "You know in your heart that Brother Xuan is not suitable for leading troops to fight, and it's useless if you force him." Even if Yun Qing wanted to force Brother Xuan, she would not agree.
Yun Qing was a little annoyed: "Then what can he do in the future?"
Yuxi was not worried about Brother Xuan's future, and said, "This kid's ambition is to become a university student. Zaozao, Brother Hao, and Brother Rui can all inherit your mantle, so let's go with Xuan What do you think brother?"
As Yuxi said, brother Xuan is indeed not material for leading troops to fight. Without this talent and ambition, forcing is useless. Yun Qing said: "Don't become a sour scholar when you grow up."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Don't worry! Brother Xuan will not become a sour scholar. Maybe Brother Xuan will become a great writer in the future, and his name will last forever."
Naturally, Yun Qing also hoped that Brother Xuan would be successful, but his mouth was relentless: "If you don't embarrass me, I will be satisfied."
ps: I bought a pair of cotton shoes two days ago, and the size was just right when I tried them on. When I wear it today, I always feel that one is big and the other is small, and I throw it away after checking the size. I went out for a trip and came back and saw a sock on the bed, only to realize that I was only wearing one sock. o(╯□╰)o (to be continued)
