Taifu Chang's benefactor, known as Mr. Wu Ya, is the number one Confucianist in the world. Mr. Wu Ya has never had any fame in his life, but his reputation is far and wide, even the elementary school children who have just entered school know it.
When the first emperor was in power, he had invited him several times, but Mr. Wuya had no intention of official career, so he never came out of the mountain. He has three disciples successively, one is Mr. Zhang, his personal disciple, who has been serving him for many years. One is Taifu Chang, and the other is a closed disciple.
If Mr. Guo is really a student of Mr. Wu Ya, he should be the closed disciple. It's just that Mr. Wu Ya is so famous, how could his disciples succumb to teaching piano in an academy?
Master Liang was surprised and suspicious, "You... you dare to pretend to be Mr. Wu Ya's student, you are... you are absolutely ignorant!"
Master Guo was still so relaxed, "If it's true or not, you can just ask Mrs. Chang."
Three generations of emperor teachers of the Chang family, full of glory. Chang Taifu is not only the teacher of His Majesty today, but also the teacher of His Royal Highness, and everyone in the court respects him.
Seeing Master Guo's attitude like this, Master Liang inevitably felt a little guilty. Who dares to impersonate Mr. Wuya's disciple? What's more, Taifu Chang is in Beijing.
The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt, and a thin layer of sweat broke out on his back.
Up to now, riding a tiger is hard to get off. He bit the bullet and said a few words to Mrs. Guo sternly, but left behind the words that he would tell Mrs. Chang and hurried away.
As soon as he left, the onlookers didn't leave.
Ye Zheng is young and doesn't know what Chang Taifu is. But Ye Lian studied in Yuqing Academy for several years, how could he not have heard the names of Taifu Chang and Mr. Wuya.
He was extremely shocked and looked at his wife.
Guo Fuzi smiled faintly, "Choosing a teacher and a study, you have chosen to be the teacher, and you have chosen you for the teacher. The so-called teaching without discrimination, learning without boundaries, from now on you and I will encourage each other."
Ye Lian nodded heavily, his small face was full of firmness.
Ye Ping had already withdrawn from the crowd. She never expected that during the riot at Yuqing Academy that day, she would make such an astonishingly talented teacher for her two younger brothers.
Guo Fuzi could choose to accept his younger brothers as students under such circumstances, and did not reveal his true identity, so he didn't need their compliments and flattery.
All they can do is to take things as usual and treat them as normal.
She couldn't wait to go home and tell her father the news. Ye Geng sat up instantly when he heard it, and was so excited that he was almost speechless. That day he felt that Mr. Guo was hiding something, but he didn't think that he was Mr. Wu Ya's disciple.
No matter what kind of person Mr. Wu Ya is, he is the number one person in the hearts of their students in the world.
Although Mrs. Ye is a housewife, the Wang family claims to be a scholar. As a girl who grew up in a scholarly family, how could she not have heard of Mr. Wu Ya's name.
Over the years, the Wang family has never given up the idea of making friends with Mr. Wu Ya. He sent people to visit more than once, hoping that Mr. Wu Ya would accept the children of the Wang family as students.
"It's actually Mr. Wu Ya's closed disciple!" She was so excited that she couldn't restrain herself, and murmured that she didn't know what to do. "Pingniang, do you think our previous apprenticeship ceremony was too light? If not, prepare another copy and send it over?"
Ye Ping shook her head, "Guo Fuzi accepted the elder brother and the younger brother as students, not out of our flattery and filial piety. If we really do it differently, we will lose our purity."
Ye Geng also thought of this and agreed with his daughter.
"Aren't we going to do nothing?" Mrs. Ye felt inappropriate. Every time the Wang family sends people to pay homage to Mr. Wu Ya, the ceremony they prepare is extremely heavy. Even those who go to give gifts choose and choose again, and be cautious. Although he returned without success every time and did not leave behind the ceremony, he never slacked off year after year.
Brother Lian and Brother Zheng can be regarded as the disciples of Mr. Wu Ya, and they can be regarded as Mr. Wu Ya's disciples. Is such a lucky thing really normal?
When the Ye family was rejoicing, Mr. Liang had already arrived at the gate of Changfu. In his capacity, he was of course not allowed to enter, and only conveyed the news through the porter.
While he was waiting for Chang Mansion to reply, Master Guo also arrived.
Mr. Guo still looked so idle, after handing some sign to the concierge, the concierge suddenly changed his face, and then respectfully invited him in.
Seeing this situation, Master Liang still doesn't understand. He regretted so much that he didn't dare to wait for the Chang family's reply, so he hurried to find someone to discuss.
In less than half a day, the streets and alleys of Yongchang City were rumored that Taifu Chang's younger brother had arrived in the capital, and also accepted the two sons of the Ye family as students.
Everyone envied the Ye family's good luck, that the two sons had such a chance by accident. When people are envious, they will inevitably mention the Wang family and Yuqing Academy.
Yuqing Academy is backed by the Wang family, and the eldest son of the Ye family was kicked out of Yuqing Academy, and the eldest daughter of the Ye family even denounced the master of Yuqing Academy for his lack of talent and virtue. I heard that Master Guo also came out of Yuqing Academy. Is there really something wrong with Yuqing Academy?
When the news reached the Wang family, the Wang family immediately exploded.
The Wang family is a good family with a century of history, but in recent years, it has not produced any amazing and talented descendants. Otherwise, he would not insist on befriending Mr. Wu Ya, hoping that the family can produce a top talent.
Therefore, there are those who are surprised, those who do not believe, those who are shocked, and those who are resentful.
Mrs. Zhu was so angry that she threw two teacups in a row. She just wanted to teach the Ye family a lesson and cut off the way for the two youngsters of the Ye family to study. Who would have thought this would be the result.
That Mr. Guo has been concealing his background to be a piano master at Yuqing Academy. What does it mean? He said that he wanted to secretly search for good seedlings that could be cultivated, but actually found two little beasts from the Ye family. Who would believe it if he said it was not intentional!
What kind of family is their Wang family, who give gifts every year and return without success every year. In the early years, he wanted to have children who would be favored by Mr. Wu Ya, but later he lowered his status and only hoped that the descendants of his family could be accepted by Mr. Wu Ya's disciples. Even so, it was still rejected time and time again.
Could it be that the descendants of their royal family are not as good as the two little brats in a small house?
When it was heard that many aristocratic families in Beijing were tempted to send their children to study under Master Guo, she was already dizzy with anger. She has several grandchildren, and she thinks that all of them are better than the two youngsters of the Ye family. When something like this happened, she was not only angry with herself, but also complained by the eldest and second bedroom.
That Master Guo must have done it on purpose!
She hated and was so angry that she finally fell ill.
…
Two days later, the Ye family received a post from Changfu.
When she first received the post, Ye cried and laughed. When she was a girl in the Wang family, she was also fortunate to visit some dignified families. Although it is to serve as a foil behind the sisters who were born on the same day, it can be regarded as gaining knowledge. Later, she married into the Ye family, because of the Ye family's family status, not to mention a noble family, but even an ordinary official family's banquet, she did not attend a few times.
She hadn't slept for several nights, both joyful and apprehensive. The happy thing is that their Ye family can climb to the Changfu, but the uneasy thing is that she has no confidence to make friends with such a family.
After much hesitation, she decided to take her two daughters as guests.
She was also fortunate to be a guest at Chang's house in the past, but at that time she could only follow behind her sister-in-law, silently like a living shadow. This is the first time in my life that I have been in contact with the wife of a big family.
Chang's family members are simple, Chang Taifu has two sons and two daughters. The two daughters are married and the two sons are married. His wife, Mrs. Li, was born in a family of generals and was originally the companion of Princess Anhe.
Li's appearance is heroic, even though he is not young, he still has a hearty and generous temperament. The demeanor and dress made people feel very comfortable, and the eyes of the three Ye family mother and daughter were also very friendly.
Her kindness reassured Mrs. Ye a little.
The two young wives of the Chang family are Du and Lan. Mrs. Du is the kind of woman with a strong bookish air, one can tell at a glance that she is a lady from a scholarly family. Lan's appearance is delicate and pretty, and she seems to be closer to her mother-in-law, Li.
The two sisters are really outstanding in appearance, and because they are a pair of twins, they are even more dazzling, almost attracting everyone's attention as soon as they show up. Mrs. Li even boasted several times without hesitation, saying that Mrs. Ye is blessed.
Ye Shi was naturally busy being modest, but he was relieved.
In addition to the customary items for the door-to-door ceremony of the Ye family, there is also a facial cream specially prepared by Ye Ping. A porcelain box with pastel peach blossoms, a powdery and clear face cream, and the word "Hua Ji" engraved on the bottom of the box.
When Lan Shi saw this ointment, he immediately liked it.
"This ointment looks good, but I haven't seen any shop in Beijing that sells it."
Ye Ping replied, "I did this myself."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were all a little surprised, and they all looked over.
Ye Ping looked shy, "When I have nothing to do, I like to tinker with these things."
Lan's eyes flickered, the texture of this ointment was clear and powdery, and it had a faint floral fragrance. She dared to say that in the entire Yongchang City, there is no face cream from a rouge shop that can compare with it.
She liked it when she saw it, and she expected other women to do the same.
"I see that the ones you make are not worse than the ones I usually use. If you make more in the future, you can even out some. I have a rouge shop, and you can put it in my shop for consignment."
"Really?" Ye Ping cried out in surprise, then seemed to feel something was wrong, and lowered her head in embarrassment. "...Will this trouble the second lady too much?"
"No, it's a matter of little effort." Lan said with a smile.
"Father taught us since we were young that a gentleman should not take advantage of others' dangers, do not force others' dangers, let alone seek others' benefits. If I really do too much and trouble my second wife to sell it on my behalf, then every time a box is sold, the second wife will get 30% of the profit." .”
"How can I take advantage of you?"
"If the second lady doesn't agree, then I can't do it."
"...Well, it's up to you. But it can't be 30% profit, 20% is enough."
"Thank you, Second Madam."
Ye Shi was in a daze the whole time. When Pingniang said to add an extra gift when she went out, she was afraid that others would dislike the things she made. Unexpectedly, in just a few words, Pingniang seems to have reached a deal with the second wife of the Chang family.
What exactly is going on?
Did Pingniang have such thoughts from the beginning?
Ye Ping did think about it, but she was in the mindset of letting nature take its course. She knows the Ye family's wealth is weak without asking, so in addition to settling down, making money is also imminent.
With their ability, it is impossible to afford the shops in the north of the city, and even the shops in the south of the city are extremely difficult. It seems impractical to rent a shop to sell rouge and gouache. One is that there are no resources, and the other is that there are no contacts. Therefore, borrowing other people's financial resources and contacts is the safest and most suitable way to make money, provided that others are willing to help them. She wanted to think about it, plan and plan. It was beyond her expectation that things could go so smoothly.
"Mrs. Ye is really lucky." Mrs. Chang said with emotion suddenly. The fact that the eldest girl of the Ye family can say such words proves that she has a very righteous heart. Such a pure-hearted and dexterous girl inevitably makes people feel a little fond of her.
Ye Shi was humbled again, and his heart became more and more awkward. At the same time, she felt that the Chang family deserved to be a family superior to the Wang family. Mrs. Chang's words and deeds were so comfortable, much better than her original eldest aunt, second aunt and aunt.
Lan's and Ye Ping on the side have already reached a deal, and the relationship is naturally a little closer.
Lan's originally had that kind of cheerful personality, and when he got close to her, he became a little more intimate when he spoke. She looked at Ye Ping, then at Ye Ting. The reputation of these two sisters in Beijing is not very good. It is said that one is shameless and fierce and the other is as powerful as a cow. Look at the delicate appearance of these two sisters, it really doesn't match the rumors.
"I've heard people say that twins are more likely to be born in families with twins. I don't know if it's true or not?"
There are only a few topics for women, such as clothes and jewelry, rouge and gouache, and children.
As soon as Lan's words came out, both Li and Du became interested. Twins are a symbol of good fortune. If any family can give birth to twins at the same time, it will be a matter of good looks.
"Don't really say it, it seems to be the case." Li Shi said.
It seems that there is a precedent for twins in the family, and it is easier to give birth to twins later. If this is the case, whoever marries a daughter of the Ye family in the future must have the possibility of having twins.
Du Shi smiled, "Whoever marries your girl in the future may be able to marry Bing Dilian in one fell swoop."
Ye's heart was pounding. The reason why she had the courage to come to Chang's house was of course not for herself. When the two daughters reached the age of marriage, she wanted to find a good way out for them.
Now that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Chang family have said this, how could she not respond.
"By virtue of Da Furen's good words, I also hope that they can marry a reliable family. If they can marry Bing Dilian in one fell swoop, that would be great."
Mrs. Li said with a smile: "The two daughters of your family look very good, I see they are all lucky."
Who doesn't like to hear such words.
Ye Shi became more courageous, and looked sad when he heard the words, "...It's a pity that my master and I are incompetent, failed to protect them, and hurt their reputation."
Du Shi looked thoughtfully at his mother-in-law.
The Ye family's daughter's reputation is indeed not good, and her family background is also low, so it is very unlikely that she wants to climb up. Even the right family, I'm afraid they don't want to come to propose marriage. What's more, the eldest girl of the Ye family kept saying that she was in love with Prince Wen, even if others were a little bit afraid to make connections, lest they would complain.
Lan also thought it was a pity. Although she had a good impression of the Ye family sisters, she also felt that it was almost impossible for Ye Ping and Ye Ting to marry someone from a higher family.
If there are people who don't care about the Ye family's family status, and don't care about the rumors outside...
"Mother, it seems that my junior uncle has no engagement."
The little uncle she was talking about was Mr. Guo.
Ye's heart twitched slightly, Mr. Guo is a disciple of Mr. Wu Ya, but he has no fame, and the Ye family can climb it even if they gritted their teeth. The most important thing is that Master Guo never underestimated them, and he is also the teacher of Brother Lian and Brother Zheng, so no matter how you think about it, they are excellent candidates.
Li's eyes lit up, "Xian He has such a temperament, he should find a more lively woman."
Master Guo, named Wanli, styled Xianhe.
He was in the Chang Mansion at this time, and it was a coincidence that he was about to greet Mrs. Li, and he happened to be outside the door at this moment, and he just happened to hear the conversation inside.
Accompanying him are two sons of the Chang family, the eldest son Chang Shenyan and the second son Chang Shenxing. The two brothers also heard the conversation in the room, one frowning and the other teasing.
It was Chang Shenyan who frowned, he selfishly thought that the Ye family girl was not worthy of his little uncle. Don't say it's a marriage, even if they are put together and people say that it is disrespectful to the junior uncle. But it was his mother, wife, siblings who were talking about it, so he couldn't blame him. He coughed lightly at the moment, and then asked the servants to go in and communicate.
When Mrs. Ye heard Mrs. Guo and the two young masters of the Chang family coming to greet Mrs. Chang, she began to fidget and blushed involuntarily. She was still thinking about Master Guo being her uncle just now, and she didn't know if she was heard. If she listened to it, she would really be ashamed to face others.
There are female relatives, and there are female guests, so the men don't want to stay for a long time, so Mrs. Guo and the Chang brothers said goodbye to Li Shi and left.
The three of them walked to the garden, and Chang Shenxing said: "The two girls of the Ye family are indeed extraordinary in appearance, and the young lady Ye is even more outstanding. If the young master is interested, there is no need to be concerned about the rumors outside. Shan Tu said that the Ye family It is a good omen that the girl may have twins in one fell swoop, and my nephew thinks this marriage is not bad."
"Shen Xing, what nonsense are you talking about!" Before Guo Wanli opened his mouth, Chang Shenyan was already annoyed. "Marriage is a trifling matter. No matter how good the girl of the Ye family is, it's useless to act improperly."
"Brother, you are too strict. How many of the rumors are true, you and I still don't know. The fact that my mother has a good conversation with the Ye family's mother and daughter shows that they are of good character."
Master Guo laughed, "The two virtuous nephews don't need to argue, the marriage is destined by nature, and everything can be done according to fate."
He didn't care about those rumors, and he had a good impression of the eldest girl of the Ye family. It's a pity that the beautiful woman already has her own heart, so she is destined to miss him.
Chang Shenxing's temperament is not as rigid as his brother's, just now when he saw the Ye family sisters who looked like twin flowers, he was quite interested in the fact that twins are more likely to conceive twins.
"Little uncle, just think about it, Miss Ye was born well, and she is easy to bear because of her figure. It would be great if I gave you a pair of daughters who look exactly the same in the future."
"Nonsense, what's so good about giving birth, how can you privately talk about the house of a girl who hasn't left the cabinet?" Chang Shenyan was already annoyed, and looked at his younger brother angrily.
Chang Shenxing took a step back in fright, "What did I say? A good birth is a blessing. Such a blessed girl, of course I want to think about our junior uncle. When the time comes, I will add a pair of pink and jade-carved junior sisters for us." Or junior brother, wouldn't it be beautiful!"
Mrs. Guo couldn't laugh or cry, there is no such thing as a horoscope, so why did it involve having children? Just as he was about to say that this matter should not be brought up again, not to ruin the girl's reputation, he felt a chill hit him.
Looking along the place where the cold wind blows, I saw that it was my second senior brother and a handsome young man in brocade clothes. The aura of that handsome young man was frightening, with a powerful aura that could not be ignored. The person who can have this kind of momentum and can also walk with the second senior brother should be the rumored King Wen Jun.
If one person is as clear as the moon with one knife, and thousands of trees are bent, it is no wonder that Miss Ye has become insane and has a demon barrier. She has to express her feelings to her in public at the risk of being ridiculed and losing her reputation.
Taifu Chang introduced each other for them. He was dressed in white, so naturally he wanted to salute. I don't know if it was his illusion, but he found that the county prince looked at him very lightly.
It stands to reason that with the relationship of the second senior brother, even if the other party doesn't give him a high look, he should be more polite, but he didn't expect to be so cold.
This is really strange, he is sure this is the first time the two have met.
Wen Yu had never met Guo Wanli in his previous life, and he also later learned from Mr. Chang Taifu that Mr. Wu Ya had a closed disciple who was said to be very carefree and wandered around mountains and rivers all year round.
So in this life, why did this person appear in Beijing, and even revealed his whereabouts and accepted the two sons of the Ye family as students? Is it because of that little girl?
Listening to their conversation just now, could it be that the Ye family has some intention of getting married? So the woman who kept saying that she liked him and would always like him had already found herself a next home.
What a duplicity little liar!
