Fierce “Husband”

On the way back, there was chatter in the carriage, Wang Shijing drove steadily, listening to the words of the children and daughter-in-law in the car. Mrs. Cen was very gentle and kind. After she took Nizi away, Nizi was no longer nervous. Nizi also recognized her words at home and recited poems with her little father. Seeing how smart and well-behaved she was, and the snacks she brought were very delicious, Mrs. Cen also fell in love with Nizi. Old Cen and Mrs. Cen's children and grandchildren are all in the capital, and they rarely come to see their parents. With the company of such a good girl as Nizi, Mrs. Cen can also eliminate some loneliness.

Mrs. Cen has an unused qin for Nizi to use first. Shao Yunan just wanted to get a good piano for Nizi, but he didn't have it in his space. Wang Qing, Zhao Congbo and Wang Yan also gained a lot of self-confidence after some assessments, and they admired (worshiped) their little father (Uncle An) even more. They have recited several idiom stories that the dean has never heard of. Shao Yunan immediately said that as long as he had time, he could tell them stories and some novel things at any time. The three children immediately decided that they would study together in the morning and go to the dean to listen to the class together in the afternoon.

Just as the carriage entered the village entrance, Wang Shijing saw Zhao Yuande and Wang Shuping waiting there. They were afraid that they had no intention of doing anything else in the afternoon. Seeing their son who jumped out of the car, not to mention how happy, Zhao Yuande and Wang Shuping's heart finally fell into their stomachs.

The two of them wanted to invite Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan to dinner. In the end, Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan went to Wang Shuping's house. Lizheng's house was busy and did not cause trouble. Wang Shuping asked Zhao Yuande to call Zhao He over to eat too.

This night, the atmosphere between Wang Shijing and Wang Wenhe was harmonious for the first time. After listening to the grandson talking about his performance with Dean Cen, Wang Wenhe secretly wiped the corners of his eyes several times. Wang Wenhe asked Wang Shuping to take out all the wine he had been reluctant to drink. That night, Wang Wenhe was drunk, Wang Shuping was also drunk, and Zhao Yuande was too happy.

The next day, the news of the three children going to Baiyue Academy to study in the spring spread throughout Xiushui Village, and the three children went to the home of Dean Cen of the county school for lessons every afternoon. Not only that, but Wang Ni will officially become the teacher of Dean Bai Cen's wife and follow her to learn the piano. This time the whole Xiushui Village was boiling again. Before, the villagers all knew that Wang Qing, Zhao Congbo, and Wang Yan read and read together all day long, and some people said behind their backs that the Lizheng family and the Wang clan elders were flattering Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing. Now no one is talking about flattering. Shao Yunan actually had the ability to ask Dean Cen to take the three children to Baiyue Academy, and personally gave instructions! Even flattery is worth it!

The news also said that it was Shao Yunan's ability. Why is this Shao Yunan so capable? The villagers still remember that the county magistrate had to call him "Yun'an"! There are still three or several families in the village who sent their babies to the private school, and they were immediately moved. Li Zheng's family said to the outside world that Shao Yunan sent Wang Qing to the academy and mentioned his brother Bo, and Dean Cen accepted it because of Shao Yunan's face, but because he was not admitted, he would be out of four taels a month. Bundle of silver. The patriarch Wang also said that his family would also give 4 taels of silver a month for repairing. Besides, if Dean Cen gave Shao Yunan a favor, it didn't mean that he could give it every time.

Two unbelievers went to Shao Yunan, but Shao Yunan threw him away with a rude "Who are you?" Shao Yunan also directly said to the outside world that if he wants to go to Baiyue Academy and take the test himself, he can let the three children in or have a relationship with the county magistrate. Whoever has the ability can find a relationship by himself. Shao Yunan has always respected him by one foot, and he respected others by one foot, and he would never say that he would lose face. Even if someone feels uncomfortable, they don't dare to make trouble. Furthermore, the Zhao clan and the Sun clan can only make money because of Shao Yunan, and the clan chiefs on both sides can suppress it.

Patriarch Sun is actually in a hurry. There are also children in their clan who are studying in private schools. Shao Yunan didn't talk to him, he would do whatever he wanted, and he would have to make the villagers accustomed to trouble in the future. Now that there are more and more rich people in the village, they should spend more money to train their children and let their children take the exam. He also recommended Zhao Congbo and Wang Yan to Elder Cen because they had potential. This kind of love is not so easy to use.

After Mrs. Wang's family heard about this, Mrs. Wang immediately went to find Wang Shijing, but was stopped by Wang Zhisong. How could Wang Zhisong not be sour in his heart. Before Wang Zaizheng, he was studying with Mrs. Wang's younger brother. Guo Zhaodi and Mrs. Wang's parents belonged to the same village. Mrs. Wang didn't dare to tell Guo Zhaodi's parents about Guo Zhaodi's imprisonment, and only told her brother that there were too many things at home, and she did not send Wang Zaizheng to study for the time being. Anyway, the villages on both sides are far apart, so I'm not afraid that someone will gossip. Mrs. Wang didn't dare to let Guo Zhaodi's family know that it was not because she was afraid that they would come to find trouble for Wang Shijing, but she was afraid that they would come to her. More than half of the reason why Guo Zhaodi and Wang Tianyan were imprisoned was for her. Guo Zhaodi's mother's family is not worry-free, they have to know this, and they must not make a mess for her.

Regarding Guo Zhaodi's matter, Mrs. Wang planned to delay it day by day. Only Guo Zhaodi belongs to the same village as her in Xiushui Village. When Guo Zhaodi comes back, she only needs to not let Guo Zhaodi go back. As for Wang Zaizheng, Mrs. Wang hated it too late at first, so how could she send him to study again. But now that Wang Qing can enter Baiyue Academy, the old lady Wang, who has always had the advantage of taking advantage of it, thinks of Wang Zaizheng again. Besides, if Wang Shijing can find Director Cen, he should also bring Wang Zhisong. Madam Wang asked Wang Dali to find Wang Shijing, but Wang Dali refused to go, and was scolded to death by Madam Wang. Wang Chunxiu also refused to go. Although she was willing to curry favor with Shao Yunan, Shao Yunan was too aggressive, and she was not ready to face Shao Yunan directly.

Madam Wang cursed at home and went to find Wang Wenhe, but she also did not dare to go to Shao Yunan. It's a pity that she was beaten out by Wang Shenshi as soon as she entered the gate of Wang Wenhe's house. Wang Shenshi pointed at Mrs. Wang with her arms on her hips and scolded her, saying that if she dared to come to her house in the future, she would beat her once every time she saw her. Wang Wenhe didn't show up, Wang Shuping didn't show up, and Wang Qian also came out and sneered at Mrs. Wang for being shameless and shameless. How could she be so stupid after being beaten by the magistrate and then fined to kneel in the ancestral hall. Mrs. Wang couldn't scold her mother-in-law and her daughter-in-law. She went to the village's drying yard and began to cry, crying that the patriarch was unjust; crying that Wang Shijing was not filial, and had friendship with the dean of the county school but did not mention her own brother and nephew; Crying Shao Yunan is a mourning star who harms her family.

Everyone in the village came out to see the joke. Has this old lady Wang been beaten enough? This family took the money from Wang Shijing's divorce, and turned around to approach them and curse them again. The shamelessness of this family is really eye-opening. . Wang Zhisong didn't expect his mother to go to the drying farm to be embarrassed. He came out of the house in a huff, and dragged the person back home.

Zhao He went to Wang Shijing's house and told the two of them about it, Shao Yunan sneered: "Let's make trouble, she makes trouble, the more shameless the trouble, the better, she will regret it."

Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan no longer took what the family did to their hearts. If they dare to come shamelessly, Shao Yunan has his own way to make them go back without any risk. Nizi was about to officially apprentice, and Shao Yunan took her to the Butterfly Pavilion in the county the next day and bought her two pairs of beautiful jade earrings, a pair of suet white jade bracelets and a topaz pendant. He also bought her a simple and beautiful headdress and a hair rope that her younger daughter wore, and also bought a pendant of white suet and white jade for Wang Qing.

Holding her new jewelry box, Nizi relied on her little father's arms. She had never seen such beautiful jewelry, all of which her little father bought for her. Nizi has no memory of her own mother for a long time. She used to envy other children for having a mother and a little father. Now she doesn't envy them anymore. Her little father is the best.

When he got home, Shao Yunan called Wang Qing over and put on a jade pendant engraved with the Golden Crow. Wang Qing couldn't help hugging his little father, and Shao Yunan patted his head. After putting on bracelets and pendants for Nizi, Shao Yunan let the two children play by themselves. Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu walked in, and they both bowed to Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing.

"Brother Wang, Brother Shao, thank you."

After returning that day, Shao Yunan brought Jiang Kangning's words to them and asked them to consider. Shao Yunan asked, "Have you considered it?"

Guo Ziyu said: "I have discussed with Zimu to move the household registration here. When the place is really stable in the future, we will go back and move the grave for my mother."

Shao Yunan asked again: "Then are you still going to take the test? Your legs are not a big problem. If you make the sole of your right foot higher, you won't be able to tell."

Unexpectedly, Guo Ziyu shook his head: "I used to have the ambition to become an official in the dynasty, but now I just want to be an ordinary farmer. Brother Shao is so capable, why don't you choose to live here."

Shao Yunan can also understand Guo Ziyu and Guo Zimu's choice. No matter how much the emperor rectified his administration, the officialdom would be dark, not to mention that Guo Zimu had such a monstrous face. He thought about it and said, "Then let's sign the deed of sale, and then I'll see if anyone can go to Qingzhou County to help you move your household registration. As long as you move here, I'll give you back your freedom."

"Thank you Brother Shao."

"Second brother Guo, if you really feel that your face is inconvenient, why don't you wear a mask, just cover half of your face."

Guo Zimu nodded sharply.

"Trouble brother Shao."

"Call me Yun'an, we were a family before you set up your own business, don't be so polite."

Guo Ziyu pursed his lips: "Yun'an."

Only then did Guo Zimu shout, and Shao Yunan smiled at the two of them.

In the past, whenever Guo Zimu went out, he would definitely attract a lot of attention and coveted eyes. But in Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan, they looked at him like ordinary people. Although the two children sometimes stared blankly, they were children, and they didn't talk about it outside. After seven years of ups and downs, Guo Zimu cherishes the peace and ordinaryness here. As for the future independent establishment, neither Guo Ziyu nor Guo Zimu have this plan. The two are grateful for Shao Yunan's help. Even if they are freelancers, they regard themselves as servants of Shao Yunan and Wang Shijing. As long as the two do not drive them away, they will work here for the rest of their lives.

On the day of the apprenticeship, the family of four dressed neatly and watched the carriage go to Old Cen's mansion, and Jiang Kangning even came. Nizi worshipped a female master. For ordinary people, it was definitely an anecdote. Whose daughter would go to worship a teacher so formally. The apprenticeship ceremony that Shao Yunan prepared was a fine topaz jade hairpin, a pair of jade bracelets with translucent green, and a pearl chain taken from Wang Shijing's booty.

Old Cen did not expect that Shao Yunan prepared such a generous apprenticeship ceremony, and Mrs. Cen was quite surprised. But this is the ceremony of apprenticeship, and there is no need to introduce it. Mrs. Cen took it and gave Wang Ni a roll of piano scores and a piano, as well as a few books suitable for girls to read. Cen Lao personally took a new name for Wang Ni-Wang Jingyan, which means brilliance like a beautiful jade. When she got a new name, Wang Ni tried her best not to shed tears. She has a nice new name and will no longer be scolded for losing money. Shao Yunan nodded straight in his heart, as expected of the dean, the name is of a high level.

The apprenticeship banquet was held in Old Cen's mansion. Except for Jiang Kangning, who came uninvited, Old Cen only invited a few masters from Sun Moon Academy. Shao Yunan met Kang Rui, the only other "Master of the School".

Kang Rui looked in his forties and had gray hair on his temples. He didn't seem to understand why Elder Cen was so attached to a farmer's son. Not only did he accept his son, but even his daughter was worshipped in the name of his wife. Kang Rui was rather cold to Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan, and the two of them didn't come close to him, just don't be rude.

After eating, they chatted with Lao Cen and Jiang Kangning for a while. Wang Shijing and Shao Yunan took their children to say goodbye, and Jiang Kangning went with them. After they left, Kang Rui, who was left alone by Old Cen, asked, "Teacher, is the county magistrate here to accept apprentices?"

When there were outsiders, Shao Yunan didn't call Jiang Kangning eldest brother. Old Cen touched his gray beard and said, "Don't underestimate them. That Shao Yunan is a strange person. He may not be as good as you in terms of knowledge of this book, but not in terms of talent. If it's you, I'm afraid I'm not as good as him. Corning recognized the two husbands as righteous brothers."

Kang Rui was shocked.

Old Cen said cautiously: "He can bring you and me, Yongxiu County, and even what surprises and changes in Dayan Kingdom can bring to me. I will wait and see."

"teacher?"

"Look at it."

After coming out of Cen's hometown, Jiang Kangning told Shao Yunan that he was going to Beijing tomorrow. Shao Yunan immediately asked if he wanted to bring more wine and tea. Jiang Kangning told him not to be in a hurry. If this trip to Beijing goes smoothly, then when he comes back, all the tea and wine in Shao Yunan's hands will probably have to be taken out.

Shao Yun'an said: "Then I will first wish you a great success in your visit to Beijing this time, I will wait for your good news."

Jiang Kangning said confidently: "Brother Wei believes that this trip will definitely come true, you two should wait for the good news of Wei brother! But Yun An, Wei brother does not hide from you, some things you said, Wei brother cannot tell the emperor. From your words, I took your credit for my brother's needs."

Without Jiang Kangning's explanation, Shao Yunan understood what he meant, and immediately said, "Brother, I understand. I'm already dazzling enough now. Whatever you do, the younger brother will support you unconditionally. The original intention of the younger brother will never change, selling and selling. Tea and wine, waiting for my big brother to be a big supporter for me."

"Heh..." Jiang Kangning almost couldn't help rubbing Shao Yunan's head, "You have so much confidence in eldest brother, and eldest brother will live up to you." He looked at Wang Shijing, "During my absence, if there is anything at home, you Go find Elder Cen."

Wang Shijing immediately said, "Thank you, brother, for thinking about it, and the journey is smooth sailing."

Jiang Kangning: "Then wait for the good news from Big Brother."

On the way back, Wang Shijing was still driving the car, Shao Yunan hugged Nizi, and was next to Wang Qing. Nizi is the happiest today, and her face is all red now. Shao Yunan kissed Nizi's little face, and Nizi shyly buried herself in her little father's arms.

"Is Nizi happy today?"

"Happy!"

"Do you like the new name?"

"like!"

Shao Yunan spread out his palm and wrote down Nizi's new name stroke by stroke: "When Nizi grows up, you can't just tell others, especially men, your boudoir name, remember it."

"Um."

"Tomorrow Nizi will learn to write her new name, and then tell your friends that you have changed your name, not Wang Ni."

"Um!"

Nizi hugged her little father tightly with the other hand, smiling happily.

Wang Shijing gave the horse a whip to make the horse run faster. It was cold outside, but he felt very hot, and the words from inside the carriage made him not feel the coldness of winter at all.
