When calm returned, Tang Hezheng and others smiled at Zhao Shouzheng and said, "I thought that my brother was a kind-hearted elder, but I didn't expect that he is also an expert at playing tricks on people."
"Yes, he obviously wrote the lyrics himself, but he insisted on saying that it was his son who made Huang Jieyuan so embarrassed." Shi Jinchen bowed deeply to Zhao Shouzheng and said, "It turns out that my brother refused to write poems in the past because he deliberately hid his clumsiness. Ah! My brother¡¯s literary talent is not inferior to Master Ling¡¯s.¡±
"Of course, although green comes from blue and is better than blue, how can green come from without blue?" Fan Datong finally popped out of the cabin and said to Yourong: "Didn't my nephew's poetry all come from my brother? "
"Don't listen to his nonsense." Zhao Shouzheng hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I did not write this word."
"Oh, there are no outsiders here, brother, stop pretending." Everyone of the same age did not believe it, they shook their heads and laughed: "We have met Mr. Ling, he is only fourteen or fifteen years old, although he is a genius, but How can you understand these human joys?"
"Yes, he has never even been to the twelfth floor, let alone entered the bridal chamber." Tang Hezheng and others burst into laughter, saying that this was not something that young people could do.
"Uh" Zhao Shouzheng thought the same thing. If this spreads out, others won't be able to say that my son has been visiting brothels since he was a child? Darling, how do you find a wife? Then he waved his hands and said vaguely: "Okay, I admit it was not my son's fault, so just go with what you say."
"Okay, it's not difficult for the elder brother." Of course, everyone couldn't make it difficult for the eldest brother. Seeing that he didn't deny it, he accepted it. So he changed the subject and said, "I'm going north to take the exam this month. Brother, please come with us."
"You don't need to worry about this matter. I will charter a few ships and we will go north together." Zhao Shouzheng generously took over the package.
Naturally, everyone was very happy and thanked them profusely.
??Who of the same age would not love such a rich and talented brother?
??~~
At dusk, the rain stopped and all the fun was gone.
The boat stopped at Wudingqiao Pier, and everyone got off the boat to say goodbye.
The bearers of the sedan chair had been waiting for Zhao Shouzheng at the pier for a long time. When they saw the master disembarking from the boat, the umbrella bearers hurriedly held up their umbrellas to welcome him. The bearers also put down the sedan poles and waited for the master to get on the sedan chair.
However, Zhao Shouzheng waved his hand and said: "It takes too long to take a boat ride, so it's better to wait for a while and ride in a car."
"Yes." The servants responded hurriedly, carrying the sedan and following Zhao Shouzheng and Fan Datong.
After walking some distance along the Qinhuai River, Zhao Shouzheng suddenly said softly: "It's hard for you these days."
"Huh?" Fan Datong was stunned, showing a puzzled expression. "Brother, why did you say this?"
"You are a noble person in the new imperial examination, and you don't know how to restrain your words. If you say anything irritating, don't take it to heart." Zhao Shouzheng said apologetically.
He has never been involved in ordinary affairs, and Zhao Hao is also a hands-off shopkeeper. These days, Fan Datong is running around organizing meetings, hiring boatmen, hiring singers, looking for gardens, and other chores.
Zhao Shouzheng uses himself to save others. If he had failed to win the exam and faced a group of impetuous upstart candidates all day long, he would definitely feel sick.
"Hey, what do I care about?" Fan Datong suddenly laughed and said: "Brother, I am too worried, little brother, I rely on my thick skin to travel in the world. How many cold looks have I received over the years? Do you care if I lose once?"
He said with a proud smile on his face: "Besides, now that my brother has won the imperial examination, he can support me. I feel very good."
Zhao Shouzheng saw how happy he was, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether he was telling the truth or whether he was lying to himself.
But no matter what, now that I have broken out of the quagmire, I naturally want to help this brother who has shared the same sorrow. He whispered:
"Why don't you come to Beijing with me this time? I heard that my old nephew has connections in the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Let's see if I can find you an official position and make a living."
Supervisors can directly become officials, which is called "Ministry Selection". But if you queue up honestly, you may not get your turn in a hundred years. It basically depends on who has the money and the connections.
Zhao Shouzheng dared to say this, and naturally he had discussed it with Zhao Hao. He felt that it was safe to find Fan Datong an eighth- or ninth-grade Zuo Er fat job.
"No, no, no." Unexpectedly, Fan Datong shook his head like a rattle. "I'm still an official when I'm so tired? I'm afraid I'll be dismissed from my post in a few days and investigated. What if I'm sent to the army and sent to the army? Wouldn't it be worse than death?"
"Besides, your son sent me a lot of errands in Jinling, how can I get away?" He said with a smile: "I don't have any big ambitions, so I just run errands and do things for you and me. I'm free." It¡¯s nice to feel free.¡±
"Oh, you are still young" Zhao Shouzheng wanted to persuade him again.
? ?But Fan Datong had no intention of continuing the conversation. Then she jumped some distance away, cupped her hands towards him and said, "That's it, I'll come back to see my brother tomorrow."
"Oh, okay." Zhao Shouzheng had no choice but to wave his hands and say goodbye to Fan Datong.
When Zhao Shouzheng turned around, he found that he had already reached the door.
It happened that Zhao Hao also got off the carriage, walked to him and whispered: "Father."
"Son, did you see it?" Zhao Shouzheng pointed at Fan Datong who was walking away and asked.
Zhao Hao nodded, and the father and son entered the house while talking.
"Do you think what he said is true or false?" When encountering something that he couldn't figure out, Zhao Shouzheng usually didn't bother to think about it and just pushed it to his son.
"I'm afraid he can't even figure it out himself." Zhao Hao shook his head and sighed softly: "He has lost himself for too long"
"Oh, I think so too." Zhao Shouzheng nodded in agreement, looked at his son and said, "Is there any way to help him?"
"We have to wait until he comes out on his own." Zhao Hao replied softly: "Let's do this for now. When the time is right, see if we can give him a push."
"Then let's raise him first." Seeing that his son took Fan Datong's matter to heart, Zhao Shouzheng put the troubles behind him and joked: "Anyway, my son has raised a whole street, and he is still missing." .¡±
"Of course it's no problem, my father also needs such a person by his side." Although Zhao Shouzheng is still a civil servant, Zhao Hao has already begun to make plans to find a team of screen friends for him.
"Yeah, then you can rest assured as a father." Zhao Shouzheng nodded happily, suddenly remembered something, stretched out his arm to clamp Zhao Hao's neck, and asked angrily: "To tell you the truth, have you ever been to a brothel?!"
"I'm still a child" Zhao Hao was strangled so hard that he rolled his eyes and said, "You strangle me to death. I've never been to that kind of place."
"So, what's going on with the song 'Green Grass Grows Before the Twelfth Floor'?" Zhao Shouzheng refused to let him go easily. He puffed his beard and asked with eyes wide open: "Is it worth a thousand dollars to smile? Who do you miss so much?" ?Which beautiful family is it that lives on Changgan Road?"
Zhao Hao only blamed himself for doting on his father too much. He gave Zhao Shouzheng so many poems and lyrics at once, and now it was no longer easy to even say that he had heard them and read them.
He had no choice but to struggle and shout:
"This is all imaginary, it can't be true!"
"That's right. Without this kind of imagination, how can my son be a little Li Bai?" Zhao Shouzheng really believed in Zhao Hao easily, so he let him go and seriously reminded him: "But my son is still young, so it's best not to even engage in sexual immorality." , otherwise it will delay your growth"
Zhao Hao was speechless.
